Uopina for a Reversal.

The Record-Herald OF Chicago is
brsvely doing its best to persuade the
Supreme Court of the United States
that il has erred in its decisions In the
Porto Rico and Philippines cases. The
per.istency Of the Chicago newspaper
in refusing to accept as final the Judg-
ment Of what seems at first glance 10
be the ultimate available tribunal,
astonishes even the Washington Post,
which remarks:
-Tnc Post. like the Record Heraid and IKE many
Of the most learned jursts. believed that the rau'
ncation OF the Treaty Of Paris made the Philippine
Islands sn integral part OF the United states and
carried our Constitution in Its en'irety TO their IN
Aaba,ants But when ,he Court decided other
wise. the Poa. as in duty bound. accepted that
nnding as the supreme law"
We beg leave to suggest to our wash
ington contemporary that the protests
of the Record Herald may not be SO
hopelessly superfuous, after all.
That journal obviously expects to see
the insular decisions OF the Supreme
Court upset and overthrown upon the
floor Of the House by the Hon. CHARLES
y. LITTLEFIELD of Maine.

been pressed for sale in the open market
without greatly depressing the price
Of all the Government issues.
Men. Women and Doorm ats.

Many severe things have been SAID
about the tyrant man, who doesn Y
seem to mind them much. Perhaps
the severest lab at the creature was
made in Chicago last Friday by MIS-
| CLARA HOFFMAN, President OF the MIS-
souri, branch Of the W. c. L. u. She
told the members Of the Executive Com
mittee OF the Illinois Equal Suffrage
Association that women are and al
ways have been but doormats and dish
washers for men" This very vigorous
opinion was approved by some suiirag'sts
and disapproved by others. A reporter
OF the Chicago Tribune wraps the mantle
Of anonymity around young woman
in the Temple who shuddered at the
term "doormat Why couldn't MIS-
HOFFMAN have found a more 9stheto
comparison, "a parlor rug, for instance
Bat a doormat, with its rough brlstle''
its awful segginess, it's habit OF staying
out all night" We cannot blame that
young woman for shuddering.
HATTIE A. ". TERHUNE, Secretary
of the Political Equality League, was
more merciful than Miss HOFFMAN:
Women ore not doorma,s and men are not
bad. They give US all the aid we ask and many
OF them stanch believers In our cause women
doormstsi Mrs HOFFMAN did not mean that
MARY A. WADswoRTB, Boston suf-
fragst, was also inclined to be a little
more lenient:
"of course women are dlshwashers. but what
OF that The dishes must be washed. and washing
them IL one Of woman's nobiest duties. SO far a.
the doormat proposition goes never was door
mat. and know OF no woman In my acquaintance
who ever had such a plant"
The argument here is a little crooked
That the lady has not been a doormat
doesn't prove that other women are
not doormats.
Mrs. J. S. BIACKwEIDER believed
that men take every kindly interest
in our sex" and she didn't care to talk
Of doormats. 81 know 30 little about
them" But there are women made of
sterner stuff and we like to hear them
talk. Here is MARION II. DUNHAM
President Of the Iowa branch of the W.
I. L anu lidllNIdl 'lNNiN'aiy VI 'hN
Board of Temple Trustees:
Haven't women been trampled on since time
began' our sex always has suffered from political
lneuuary and ! d, not know that We shouldn't
be Iikened TO dJoruetS. YET. after all, perhaps
II would have been jrSt as well not TO have stated
the case 50 abruptly"
If "doormats be the right word,
its abruptness doesn't count Mrs
ELIZABETH J. LOOMS stood by Mrs
HOFFMAN and insisted that ADAM was the
FIRST offender. But surely ADAM used
EVE as an applepicker, not as doormat
Mr. LOOMS was not harsh to men
folks She didn't mean - say that the
men are b. q. but she did believe that they
might be better" As for Mrs. ELIZA
BE1H BoYNToN HARRIET, the President
OF the Illinois Equal Suffrage Associa-
ton. she found great deal of truth in
Mrs. HoFFMAN's opinion, although the
manner of expressing ii was rather more
forCible than elegant"
The manner is nothing. Either woman
has been and is Z doormat fyr nan or
she isn't one. Apparently the Chicago
sufTragists are about evenly divided
on the question. 1t i 10y such divisions
that the tyrant man has maintained
his Odous supremacy.

speaker whose words were distinctly heard d
In every part Of tho great hall Of tho Inn

a surprise to tho foreigners, who had never
heard of the Duke Of York as a public
speaker. In stature he was the smallest,
the slightest man on the platform; his
voice, however, was both pleasing in quail
ity and ample in volume. Its intonations
were perfectly clear. He showed not only
some natural gifts as a speaker. but also
the good results OF elocutionary drill; in
fact, no was the success Of the evening, not

which, in 1900, produced sewing machines
and attachments valued at s3,i7O,lS7.
GOODYEAR accidentally dropped a piece
Of rubber powdered with sulphur on
red-hot stove and thus discovered the art
Of vuicanizing rubber. He gave the I'M
pulse that started the rubber factories
at Naugatuck. making Connecticut one
of the great rubber-working States, the
product increasing from s3,478.39S IN
1900 to ss,246,24O in 1900. Over century
ago the making OF nails and other ar
ticles of small hardware was pursued
in the State as household industry
These manufactures were long ago
transferred to the factories. which IN
1900 produced hardware valued at $l6'-
3Ol, ,l9s. From a small beginning IN
Hartford. where the process OF electro
silver plating was invented about ls+S'
sprang the great plants at Meriden,
Waterbury and other towns that in 1900
produced 50, ,53s, ,397 of plated and britain
mia ware.
The total value Of manufactured
products In 1900 was 1852, ,s24, 100, an
increase of 42.l per cent. over the pro-
duction of 1890. Large capital. abun-
dant labor and good markets near at
hand are among the advantages OF Con-
necticut but tho State owes much OF it's
success in manufactures to the frugality,

After Having Failed to Cut Her

ALBERT LEA. Mimi, Feb. 14-(spe-
cial)-Mrs. Charles H Dills, who has
been deranged for some years, became
afflicted with a suicidal mania late this
afternoon and, after asking her husband
for money to go and buy poison with
which to destroy herself, went into the
basement of her house and tried to cut
her throat, using the edge OF an ak, but
the implement was dull and she was IN
successful. She then pulled off the shoe
ard stocking from her left foot nut it
upon the grindstone frame and attempted
to amputate the foot few inches above
the ankle. The wound shows ten or
dozen blows. The dullness of the ak
prevented the severing Of the leg, but
a horrible wound was inflicted. Her hus-
band, who went in search of her as soon
as she left the house after asking for
money with which to purchase poison,
found her unconscious. Later she re-
gained consciousness, and she said she did
the terrible work to save her husband and
children. Tho foot has not yet been am
putated, but will very likely have to be
tonight She is resting under the in
huence Of an anaesthetic, and the state
OF her mind is not known.

After the mass the simple Catholic
ritual of marriage was read, the cere-
mony not differing in any detail from
that uniting the most humble of that
faith except that the ritual was read
from specially printed book in Spanish.
Wedding rings were exchanged by both
parties, these, of course, being of great
value and unique workmanship.

the husband to love and cherish his wife.
Arm in arm the newly welded couple
