PORTO RlCANS SCRAP
Congress Fails to Pass Budget Owing
to Party Strife.

San Juan, P. r., March II. = The
extraordinary session of the Porto
Rican legislature adjourned without
having passed the budget. The bud
get failed Of passage at the regular
session, and Governor Post, having
been given assurances that it would
go through, called an extra session.
The Unionist leaders, however, did
not fulfill their undertaking. Cover
nor Post will now take up the situ-
alton with Washington.
The conflict between the house of
delegates, composed entirely of Union
lists, and the executive council, arose
from the efforts of the former TO pass
a law favoring the party. The coun-
Gil refused to accede to the proposal.
The house agreed with the council
and promised to pass the budget, but
during the extra session it used the
budget as club in an effort to force
the. hands of the council in the mat
ter of the party law.

DR.. ABBoTT's IDEAL WOMAN

DIR. Lyman Abbott defines in seven
clauses the ideal woman. As the
terms may be condensed, they call
for a woman who is the slave not of
fashion nor the dressmaker, who is
not afraid that work will spoil her
hands, who wears shoes in which she
can walk, thereby getting her color
from exercise instead of the rouge
box; who develops her love of beauty
in her home, who is industrious,
sympathetic, energetic, enthusiastic,
motherly and true friend"
The doctors specifications demand
a great deal, but nothing which should
be regarded as supernormal. They
contain no references to ability in
the art of rhythmic breathing, nor
to yearning for the ballot. Indeed,
the required qualities are so homely
that they might be the possessions of
woman who had never doubled at
an afternoon of bridge, had never
considered whether or not she ought
to smoke in public, and had never
courted the application of the ad-
jective advanced"
1t happens that just as DIR. Abbotts 5
words are before us free transla-
ton is printed of a Berlin papers
tribute TO Elena of Italy:
"She is a reincarnation of Esther
in her surprising beauty and her de-
votion to her people; she is a repro
duction of Miriam in her courage, of
Sara in her gracious dignity, her
moral purity and her loving Difference
to her husband and of Rachel in her
affection for her children. With all
these traits of historic women, she
possesses one quality which is the
flower of modern social progress-a
broad and active humanitarianism, a
desire and a will to help her fellow
beings"
We seem to find, therefore, that the
Doctors ideal is as little creature
of station as Of the woman's club.
She is the light of many a democratic
American homeland she may be a
queen.

PUBLICITY AND MR.. HARTMAN

when he seeks to lead the simple life
lin a luxurious tent in Texas. This is
the penalty of greatness. Travelling
even on a special train with a retinue
of railroad presidents, it is as impos-
sible for him to escape curious OBJ
servation as it would be for Napo-
leon and his marshals or a popular
prize fighter. All the seismographs
of Wall street are adjusted to record
the slightest tremor of railroad news
in his wake.

THE TOBACCO NEWS.

The American Society of Equity
Tobacco News made its initial bow
to the public yesterday. We have sell
dom seen new journal which so i'm
pressed us with its newspaper ap-
pearance from the verysstart. 1t is
full of tobacco news of all sorts. In
fact, it is the only paper devoted to
tho tobacco man and the tobacco
farmer which contains just the news
he wants. 1t has infinitely more of
interest to the grower than any other
of the so-called tobacco papers.
The paper is well divided as to de-
partments. There is the Burley To-
bacco Society division covering the
tobacco situation with headquarters
at Winchester. 1t gives reports from.
all the counties in the hurley district.
Then second section contains Goth
er Tobacco Districts"
The American Society of Equity
news is well covered. The editorials
are strongly written. The fore word
tells the scope of the paper:
"Our excuse for starting another
paper in this world is the fact that
we are needed. Here in Kentucky,
Southern Ohio, and Southern Indiana,
the Burley tobacco growers are or
ganized for selling their output.
The headquarters of their organiza-
ton is in Winchester, KY, with local.
organizations in each county. The
gathering of the news from head
quarters and the various counties
and retailing it in one sheet, not
only offers us an opening but in the
present condition of things has be-
come necessity. The District
Board has recognized this need and
at various times has considered al
newspaper of the type of ours.
The fact that the District Board
was not prepared to edit a news
paper and that the Burley Tobacco
Society was pot publishing cor
poration, has prevented. This paperj
will do in private .wav that which |
the Board wants done, to-wit: Keep
the people in touch with each other
offer them vehicle for expression Of |
their views, and promote the general
confidence and welfare. 1t is a big 4
job that we have undertaken and we
enter upon it prayerfully and hum
bly,; asking the assistance of the
people, without which we can do
nothing. Our desire is to serve and
our hope is to serve; for unless we
can serve the growers organizations
we have no right to their support.
We have noticed that he who serves
others has others to serve him, but he
who serves himself alone, alone
must serve himself. Our associates.
whose names are seen at the head
of our column, are SO well known IN
this district for their public spirit
and willingness to serve, that we be-

Il look for disagreement as far as
John Sharp is concerned, but nothing
can save the others from conviction.
Our case against Sharp was weak
ened by the absence in Colorado of a
cousin Of Sharp's who, at the applica-
ton for bond, swore that as Sharp
turned away from the scene OF the
shooting there was a smile OF salts
faction on his face. If this witness
had been able to come back. Sharp
would suffer with the others"
