W0MAA'S DAY IS OVER
IN FEDERAL DEPARTMENTS
Females Do the Work Better But

In the Offices.

WASHINGTON, D. c., July 1S.-
The day OF the woman In the govern.
ment service bids fair to pass. The
women clerks themselves do not re-
alizc the fact as yet, but the men
do, and are already, predicting .ihe
arrival of the time when they wilTbe
absolutely alone In the government.
departments.
In three Of the executive depart.
ments of the government here wo.
men are being got rid OF.
In the department of commerce
and labor there are no wome.,
clerks. In several Of tho bureaus
of the departments. which are To-
Gated outside the main building,
some women clerks are employed,
but In the main Office there are TO
females.
Women are slowly disappearing
from the postolfice department, and
the number IN the war department
Is steadily decreasing, The day
when there are no women I'm tho
department of commerce and labor
and the postoffice department is
mcasurably near.
George Bruce Cortelyou, the first
secretary of commerce and labor,
and now the postmaster general, Ii
said to be responsible for the hlau.
guration of the movement to get
rid of the women CLERKS.
The reason given for the prefer.
ence for mel clerks is that they
are more tractabie and less trou-
blesome generally than are the wo.
men. chief Of division in one of
the departments agrees that in many
Instances the women do better
work and more work than the men.
but she is harder to control" he
said. She has her own way OF
doing things and she won't take
orders as readily as man will do.
One woman in room, If she be an
elderly one, will make dozen clerks
uncomfortable. | have yet to finn
one who wants the window up if a
majority of the clerks want it that
way, and If majority of them
want the window closed she elects
to have it up. OF course, the win.
dow stays as she wants it, but the
men are in bad humor all day"
Women began working in the de.
partments here during the war be-
tween the States. The number in
creased yearly for many years. and
1t was believed their work was salts
factory. In fact there is 10 serious
complaint against the work or the
manner in which it is done.

COSTLY NAVAL LESSON.
Expensive Boiler Casing on Two
Cruisers Failed to Hold Together.

Expensive Boiler Casing on Two
Cruisers Failed to Hold Together.
WASHINGTON. d. c.. July 1S-The
Navy Department has learned an ex-
pensive lesson on the use of insulating
material from the boilers of the cruis-
ers Pennsylvania and Colorado. which
were cased In composltiOn made of
85 per cent. OF powdered magnesium
and Is per cent. of asbestos fibre.
In the opinion of the officers Of the
board who investigated the burning
out of the boilers on these vessels,
this composition will never again be
used as boiler casing. The reIort Of
the board has been filed with the De.
partment by Admiral Sgsbee.
The report relates that the burning
out OF the boilers was due entirely to
the fact that their casing was INSULT
cient. The percentage OF powdered
magnesium and asbestos fibre was de.
termined by careful Investigation. bit
an examination of the casing showed
that when subjected to fierce heat the
composition failed to hold together.
1t was reduced to- powder, settling to
the bottom OF the jacket and leaving
no protection for the greater part of
the outer casing.
I The board will recommend that far
more enduring casing he REQUIRE /
hereafter. The total cost OF repairing
the damage to the boilers on the YES
sells named will amount to $50 900, or
100000 each. This work Is now being

SOCIAL DEMOCRATS BARRED.

only persons of moral qualities shall

The minister said that those quail.
ties did not exist among the members

Churchill standard. (Fallon, Nev) 1903-1908, 1906-01-20

THE STANDARD notes with a great deal of satisfaction,
that a large proportion of the new settlers who are finding homes
Churchill way are young men and women, of buoyant heart and
optimistic faith; young men and woman who have come from
states presenting fewer opportunities, to the land of irrigation,
where mutual sacrifice and mutual toll will be far more produc-
tive of results, in the process of homebunding. A home is some
thing more than four walls and a roof and realization upon
common toll is pretty apt to be a home i'll the fullest sense OF the
word. The Carson Sink is one of the few places that still pre-.
sents unbounded opportunities for the newly welded couple OF
limited means. We need more komebulders; two loving souls
bound together as one, are quite effective in this process, Judging
from all precedent, when they are willing to endure and work
together in The creation of that bulwark of all socie tv-theh happy
home. Certain ii that no other section under the sun presents
the opportunities, that does ours, and the development of our
farm units is a process that requires the work OF both man and
woman, so let MS have few bachelors.
