Trying to Save ''The Party"
Cuba May be Made to Bleed Aagin,
But What of That?

Dul eEIIoA VI licAGs
Washington, March 12.-O7ersures
have been made for the compromise
of the conflict over tariff concessions
TO Cuba and there are evidences that
the two elements will come together,
probably on proposition to have the
20 per cent. reciprocal reduction ap'
ply for one year from next December
and covering one sugar crop.
Prominent members Of the ways
and means committee, who have
thus far led the contest for Cuban
reciprocity, have signifed a willing
ness to accept this compromise prop
osition.
The o7ertures of compromise are
to be considered by three Republicans
from each side, namely: For the ways
and means, Chairman Payne, and
Representatives Dalzell and Cannon;
for the opposition to the ways and
means, Representatives Dick, OF
Ohio; Fordney, of Michigan, aud
Morris, of Minnesota.
Soon after the overtures OF COM
promise were made the leaders Of the
element opposed to the ways and
means committee called conference.
The sentiment was rather unfaVor-
able to accepting the plan Of 20 per
cent. reduction for one year from
next December and some Of those
present were favorable to rejecting
the plan. But it was urged against
this course that SO long as o7ertures
for adjustment had been made IN
good faith it was only proper to meet
the committee representing the ways
and means. It was therefore decided
bv vote tc name committee 10 meet
Messrs. Payne, Dalzell and Cannon.
Later Mr.. Payne and his associates
were formally advised that they would
be met by committee from the
other side. As there was desire to
consult the wishes of all those CO.
operating with the opposition forces
a call was issued to meet st 2 p. n to-
morrow, at which time the final plans
will be made.
During the meeting the statement
was made that one of the beet sugar
advocates had been assured by rep
resentati7es of the ways and means
committee that the plan Of compro-
mise would not cover this years su-
gar crop and would apply only to the
crop of next year, harvested prior to
December, 1908. Some doubt exist
ed, however, as to these assurances
and it was considered quite vital to
learn with defniteness whether the
20 per cent. reduction would apply
to two crops or to one.
It was stated afterwards by the
ways and means committee members
that the compromise plan would affect
two crops-that of this year and
next-allowing 20 per cent. eff OF
each. There was no purpose. it was
stated, to limit the reduction to a sin
gle crop. This matter will probably
be left to the arbitration committee,
with the indications that the beet
sugar conference will insist on limit
ing the reduction to one crop, that of
next year, and with that limitation
will be inclined to accept the plan OF
compromise.

FEARS DISASTROUS RESULTS.
Professor kiehle on Tendency Of Wo-
men to Enter Business Life,

men to Enter Business Life.
Chicago, Feb. PA warning note
that women and girls in this country
were being drawn into commercial and
manufacturing pursuits to an extent
that jeopardized the welfare of future
women and menaced happy home life
was sounded by Professor D. L. Kiehle
of the chair of Pedagogy in the Uni
versity OF Minnesota before the de-
partment of superintendents of the
National Educational association now
in convention here. His address
touched a popular feeling in the minds
OF the thousand or more educators
from all points of the compass and
that portion stating that home life and
surroundings were above ALI sordid
gain was %applauded. %fE
I'm this age of commercialism and
industrial conditions said Professor
Kiehle, mo provision has been made
for motherhood. This phase of life
seems to have been brushed aside. In
fact, we are making money earners Of
our daughters in commercial pursuits.
While women have every right to
an equality with men in matters of ed
ucation, they are going outside their
sphere when that portion of their edu-
cation fitting them for the higher du-
ties of home life and motherhood does
not take precedence over everything
|. else. "a :
Education for woman that began
only a few years ago on elementary
lines has extended to technical and
classical courses and has enabled wo-
men to compete for places formally
filled by men who supported families
in many instances. The continuation
of women entering the commercial
and industrial field cannot bit have
disastrous results in time, unless some
thing is done to provide for a home
life also for women and the tendency
to enter the Office and factory Is
checked"

death trap in court square will on Fri

Recently the supreme court affirmed
the Judgment of the lower court in the
case of Dave McWhirter. convicted of
murder in the first degree. and Satur-
day mornings mail brought Sheriff
Pitcock the executive order of jeff
Davis, setting the date for the execution
rs above. Judging by the time that has
interviewed between the confirmation
and the setting of the date, Gov. Davis
does not intend to interfere with the
carrying out of the sentence.
McWhirter, when informed by Sheriff
Pitcock, accepted the unwelcome news
much more composedly than was ex-
pected. He apparently has lost some Of
the fear of death which after his first
conviction was painful to behold and
the officials are hopeful he will not
break down at the end.

At about 4 o clock train came In
from the south In which were two car
loads Of watermelons owned by Mr..
Woiford and man named Steele. The
gentlemen were shipping to Eastern
markets and accompanying their ship.
meuts. When the train arrived the two
men left the caboOse and started for the
ysrdmaster g Office to ascertain what
hour the cars would be made up ready
to 70 out. They had to cross several
tracks, and Mr.. Wofford was walking
Just In front of Mr., Steele. A switch
engine was vt work near by and
"kicked some cars down the track. =.
II was quite dark and the men failed
to see the cars rs they came toward
them, and Mr.. Wofford was struck and
knocked down, but Mr.. Steele evaded
the cars by stepping backward. When
the cars had passed, Mr.. Woflord was
found with both legs badly mangled and
crushed from his knees to his feet.
The injured man was placed on q
stretcher and was later taken to the
Office of Drs Hawkins and Dusenbury,
where an examination was made and II
was decided that amputation would be
necessary. Up TO this time the unfor.
tunate man was perfectly rational and
conversed with the doctors regarding
his injury. He consented to the opera
ton and was perfectly willing that the
surgeons should proceed.
Just as they were about to begin the
work the patient sank suddenly and
died in q few moments. The doctors
say he died from the shock to his ner-
vous system, Tho relatives OF the de-
ceased were notified and they instructed
that the remains should be shipped
