This Paper.

A valued subscriber. conscientious,
scholarly and humorous, permitted his
dues to encroach too far, as he thought,
upon kind indulgence. At last he wrote
the JOURNAL as follows
Years ago ! read a parody on "Hohen-
linden" which ran something like the fol-
lowing:
In seasons when our funds are low
Subscribers are provoking slow
\ few supplies keep up the flow
tlf dimes departing rapidly:
Hut we shall see il sadder sight
When duns pour in from morn till night,
Commanding every SiXpcnce bright
To be forked over speedily,
Our bonds and due-bills are arraycd-
Each seal and signature displayed;
The holders VOW they must he paid
With threats of law and chancery,
TITS scarce we have begun
To plead for time upon dun
Before there comes another one,
Demanding pay ferOciously.
The combat deepens. On, We brave,
Who would our very bacon save,
Waive, patrons, all your preteXts waive,
And pay the printer cheerfully!

which ought to have been 'squz' long. long
ago. Meanwhile, long live the JOURNAL.

WOMAN N'SARGU MENT FOR WOMEN'S VOTE

New York, March 9.-(Special) )--When women have votes they will become grander mothers and bring forth strong ei race of men, Is the argument Miss Beatrice Forbes Robertson, the English actress and sister of MT. Forbes -Robert- son, will urge in a transcontinental suf- frage tour she will make with Mrs. Caro-
 hapman Catt, following the end of he. season at the New theatre in this city
 If nature had intended our sex forsse- clusion, for segregation, women through natural seclusion would have become to- day creature with a very small head, an enormous bust and tiny, rudimentary legs just big enough to carry her from her bedroom to the dining room and back again." Miss Forbes Robertson said today in an interview. .'The Arabs, before Mo- hammed introduced the idea that women had no souls, were a strong and virie race, segregation resulting in deteriora- ton.
 '"The idea that woman should not vote because she cannot fight to defend her country is poor one, even were it true. There are thousands of men who vote but who cannot fight.
 Fighting today depends not on brute force but on skill; not on the arm but on the eye. ft.
 Tn the Boer war the women fought side by side with their husbands, and then the British government cheerfully hanged them as non-combatants assisting the en- emy.
 ''In the Indian mutiny a woman. the Rance of the Indian states, was the last person to lay down arms. The English army today includes the first aid mount ed yeomanry corps, body of women that ride upon the battlefield, dismount and give first aid to the wounded"

MINE WORKERS MAY
 SETTLE DISPUTE

Cincinnati, March 19.-(Special.)- The Mine Workers of America gave to their sub scale committee together with international officers discretionary power to negotiate a wage agreement to govern for two years commencing April 1. This action was taken after President Lewis of the United Miners, repeated the declaration of the oper- ators that there would be no use in further negotiations unless there was some flexibility in the miners stand
 The operators of the sub-scale com mittee will return here Monday with the expectation of formulating some kind of an agreement. The action of today Is believed by many to have paved the way for speedy settle ment.
 The final action of the sub-scale com mittee Is, of course, ject to rati- fcation by the miners convention. which will reassemble daily next weel until the differences between the op- orators and miners are adjusted or a final disagreement occurs.

Washington, March 9.-(Special )-Rep- resentative Underwood of Alabama, who has taken the most conspicuous part of the side of allies by reason of his par liamentary leadership of the combined mocratic-insurgent forces, is Jubilant over the result of the vote In the House today. All through the long fight which has terminated in the defeat of the or ganization MT. Underwood has main- tained his place on the floor prompting his party as to the correct manner in which to concentrate their forces to bring about the election of a committee on rules and the elimination of the speaker, instead of the one man power under which the House has been acting.
 MT. Underwood regards the action of the House today as great democratic victory and one that will make for greater liberty on the part of the indi vidual member. In his judgment the House democrats, by their complete unity, have paved the way for democratic House and the election of democratic President two years hence.
 The new committee on rules, which will consist of ten members, four of which will be democrats, elected by the Mouse. may embrace in its membership MT. Underwood He is now a member of the ways and means committee, but the service he has rendered his party on the floor during the present crisis may also place him upon the rules commit tee-at least it should do so.

 Attorney Vertrees, counsel for MT. Bal finger, cross-examined the witness closely regarding newspaper reports that there wae to be shake-up in the reclamation service. It was apparently MT. Vertrees purpose to show the animus of Newell by extracting from him an admission that he expected to be dismissed by MT. Ballin- ger.
 MT. Newell insisted repeatedly that he did not know what MT. Ballnger thought of him.
 MT. Burch and MT. Steele of the Gug- genheim syndicate will be called to the stand next Friday. Attorney Pepper an- nornced today his case as practically completed, although he expected to call a number of witnesses in rebuttal.
 During the greater part of today's hear ing only Senate members of the commit tee were present. The provision of the resolution under which the inquiry is be- ing held allowing sub-committees to hear testimony made it possible for the hear ing to continue without a quorum of a full committee being present.
