 Do you think this ratio could be ias-. creased at all under socialism?
 A little book on the servant questiozai has recently been issued by the New York Legal Aid Society. In the intno-- duction the writer says:
 ''1 know of no better calling, Of no-aen more apt to elevate the mind and isn-- prove the health, and to add Jo tbs=, experience and knowledge of a yeeag- woman, than the privilege of assist agrS in the affairs of the home of cultureGa men and women. In such 8 home ,sssa,s is enabled to enjoy home comforts, peaceful and respectable surroundings reasonable pleasures good and whole some food, and joyous conQauaoa,'. ship with men and women. of hesr own kind, and true and sntire, fress-- dom."
 The lot of the domestic servant; her' considers, is by far better than that @1 the poor factory girl.
 'I have frequently met former ser- vants," he says. "who had laid up sevr- eral hundred dollars per year, and whcr' afterwards entered married life wltfa capital sufficient to open their ownu homes and employ, in turn, their OWE servants. Such boon is not extended. to their misguided sisters, who rejec.t for inadequate reasons, the higher plane, in order to lead an inferioS: existance on a lower plane.h !

This enlightened sheet adds. naively. After reading this, osass: rsay well wonder why .Aera is such a.a dearth of servants"
 If the writer of this amusing bit OF nonsense had served but two days as-, hunkey in an average private, family. he would have fair different stosyv to tell. The average private family, who have the means to employ senK- ants, look upon them as something s&n far below them in the social plane taGy such service becomes. at oroe degrass ing and abhorrent, to foreign born ass well as to American born.

 The Spokane Labor World says 'Ih. was very fitting that editor Durham of the Review, who was expelled from the typographical union for scabbings, should be one of the sponsors for Jazaess w. Van Cleave during the latter's4 visit here. It is not surprising thaa, the Review is such g. labor union ansa- gonist with such an editor at the, :. helm."
 But it must be remembered thaa type of editor is just what the interests who control the policy of the Review desire. The fiercely bitter attacks made upon the membership of she> Western Federation of Miners, espe-- cially during the trials at Boise et Mover, Haywood and Pettibone, indi-- cate plainly that the policy Of ths. Review is controlled mainly by tn p mine owners who so strenuonsly esa deavored to railroad these men to tKse gallows.

BANCROFT TO BARE
STOCK WATERING.
ELOQUENT Facts on D. U. RS Meth
DDS Will Be Revealed in Report OF
Committees Expert.

Some eloquent facts as To the meth
DDS employed by the various compan-
les composing the ID. L. r. in swelling
and watering their stock will be told
by the report which Engineer Freder-
lex T. Bancroft is preparing for the
mayors committee of So.
This report is 10 be not alone an
appraisal but also history in most
details Of the street railway systems
OF Detroit. In connection with the re-
port which w. ID. Gridley is TO make
on the books OF the ID. u. r.. IL will
show how stock issues were made
with the view of consolidation and old
franchises kept as assets.
Not only has Bancroft looked up all
the a grants made by the city TO the
constituent companies and the AZ fran
chises granted in what were once
townships. but are now parts OF the
city, but he has also compiled 162 res
olutions passed by the common coun-
Gil bearing upon the rights OF the
companies
Not only is the cost and present
value OF the trackage OF today shown.
but also the history and location OF
every bit OF trackage laid in the past
40 years. In the report the trackage
Is divided into parts according 10 the
franchises and resolutions governing
It,
Other items ON which information
will be given are the overhead equip.
ment, the details as to spurs, crossing
and switches, the telephone and tele-
graph systems and the description, APP
praisal and history of the 80 odd car
barns and power buildings OF the com
pany, including its repair shops Paw
ing records have been looked up as
far as possible. to get the history
and present costs and values.
The most difficult task mas been that
OF valuing the cars. These are OF
many types and dates and vary as TO
their bodies. tracks and electrical con-
struction. Each car has had TO be sep
arately inspected at night and the rec
ords OF the company have been more
useful in this matter than in any
other.
Not only has the work been stipend
Gus, but Bancroft has had the further
difficulty OF the financial stringency OF
the Committee OF so. This body had
but $4,000 appropriated for its use and
this has been tied up by the court pro-
ceedings instituted by the Federation OF
Labor. II appears certain now that
more money will have To be allowed
To finish the committees work. En-
gineer Bancroft has had TO get bust
ness friends 10 assist him for merely
nominal sums, and this has tended 10
lengthen the time required for the
task
No one except the ID. L. Il. officials
has any idea of what is being done by
Horatio a. Foster and the other cx-
perts that the company has hired to
appraise its property. These are at
work constantly but their work Is
done entirely separate from that OF
the committees men.
Il have found the superintendent
and foremen of the ID. L. Il. very ca
pable men and have had every assist
ance from them says Bancroft.

ELECTRIC VOTING BOOTH
is THE LATEST SCHEME
Engineer Rae Shows plans To Mayor.
But Excessive Cost initiates
Against Plan.

Frank b. Rae, the engineer. whose
work under the direction of Hazen =.
Pingree was largely responsible for
the installation OF the municipal lignI-
ing plant, has presented To Mayor
Breitmcyer plans for an electric voting
booth which the latter will consider.
The element of cost In this plan is n
high one. however, and this may mill
tate against its being given serious
consideration by the council and board
OF estimates.
Rae and Henry c. Hart, an attorney.
have drawn up plans showing the use
OF such electric voting machines In a
permanently constructed voting place.
The APPARATUS would call for three yot,
ing divisions In each booth, and the
voters would see his ballot before him
on the wall with buttons opposite each
name In place of the usual squares TO-
crosses. Pressing the buttons would
not cast the vote, but this would be
done en- leaving the Enclosure after
the ballot was prepared.
1t Is estimated that each voting
house would cost $4,000 and the capac-
ity of each would be equal TO three
voting machines.
