CUBAN RECIPROCITY IS

MADE by the president along the lines
of the speech delivered in Chicago
some time ago by Secretary shaw
The differences of opinion entertain-
ed by the administration and by lead
ing republican members of congress
on the question of financial legisla-

anything along this line can be ac-

Strike Is Probable.

CHICAGO, Nov. IA conference
of officials of the street railway en-
ployes and the Chicago City Railways
company will be held Monday, at
which the employees demand for an
increase of cents an hour will be
discussed. 1t was to have been held
today, but the railways were not pre-
pared to listen to the employees rep
resentatives. The belief is prevalent
that a strike Is inevitable. There is
some talk of an application for an
injunction restraining the union Of
ficials from ordering a strike.

of the husband he would lay siege to
the pretty housewives heart. When
she refused he would threaten her. and
once he took hold of her and would
have dragged her out of the house and
kidnapped her had not her screams
brought the neighbors.
Following that incident, she armed
herself and today she had a revolver
in the folds of her skirt when the Ital
ian appeared to display his violent af
lection.
He begged and implored her to flee
with him. She would not. He threat
ened and still ,she was obdurate, even
to ordering him out Of the house.
Finding his threats of no avail, Bash

His Marital Woes.

Edward w. Flowers married his wife
in Clarinda, Iowa, in 1887, and is now
the father of seven children, the oldest
of whom is but 10. The husband gave
up trying to run the family along in
1900, after his wife had hurled a stick
of wood at him, and had thrown dishes
in his direction. He has moved to
Spokane and wants a divorce, asserting
in his complaint that he has turned
over everything he had, including in
terest bearing securities, to the support
of the family.

IRELAND AND ENGLAND.

The attitude of hostility which Dub
lin has taken against the King Of En-
gland shows that the land law conces-
sion has done nothing to remove the
ancient prejudices Of the Irish people
II was hardly supposable that it would
What the Irish have wrung from Par
lament after a struggle generations
long they look upon as rights recoV-
cred not as gifts bestowed; and it is not
for them. as they think, TO forget the
injury done them by England's long
continued and obstinate Withholding of
what was fair and just.
While this attitude is natural enough
il is scarcely logical in view of the in
dissoluble union of Ireland with Great
Britain and the advantage it would
now be TO Irishmen TO meet the British
government half way. Having got ev-
erything they could reasonably expect,
it would seem TO be to their good to
cultivate close relations with their fell
low subjects in England, Scotland and
Wales so as to share the prosperity of
the United Kingdom. Ireland needs
capital more than any other one thing.
It's ancient manufactures, which were
numerous and rich, could be revived;
and there is plenty of English capital
to do it providing such capital can en-
ter ireland and find hospitality, stay
there with safety and emerge from
there with profit. A genuine rap
prochement between the Irish and En-
glish people would revive Ireland and
strengthen the empire. Is there any
thing but ancient prejudice and OBJ
in the way of it?
Irishmen can learn much from the
attitude of the Southern States of this
towards the Northern States.
As Ireland lives in the bitter memories
IF past century so might the South;
out the latter, putting unpleasant
Kings aside, is looking forward to the
century to come and, shoulder to
with the North, is determined
o make the best Of it. What a rich
md happy country Ireland might be
( IL had the same wisdom.
