SATISFACTORY SETTLEMENT
Reached by N. Y, N. II. & n. Railroad
and Its Employees.

New Haven, CT, March 2S.-FOllOWinS
a conference tonight between General
Manager Samuel Higgins of the New
York, New Haven & Hartford Railroad
and the adjustment board of the Rail-
way Conductors. Trainlnen and Yardmen,
it was stated that a satisfactory settle
ment of all difficulties had been reached
and that the settlement was on the basis
of that recently made by the Baltimore &
Ohio with its employees. The agreement
covers the wage and train schedules and
the hours of labor. The nnal obstacle
which arose to prevent a full settlement
was the attitude of the New Haven road
toward the employees of the New York
Central in case a strike was declared on
the latter road
The employees demanded that in case of
trouble on the New York Central that the
attitude of the New Haven road be
friendly to labor, and the road refused
to agree to assume such a position.
This attitude of the employees. it is I'M
derstood, was not approved by the nation
al officers, l.. +. Sheppard of the con-
ductors and G.. Fl. Shines or the train
men, and the latter, it is understood, pre-
vailed upon the New Haven men to fore
go this demand.

STATEHOOD BILL.
Report Favors. the Senate Rather Than
The House Form.

Washington, March Ex-senator
Beveridgc presented to the Senate to-
day the report of the committee on
territories favoring the Senate bill in
preference to that passed the House
for the admission of New Mexico and
Arizona as separate states. The re-
port defends the changes made by the
Senate committee in vigorous Ian
guago, especial emphasis being given
the refusal of the Senate bill to recog-
nize the present election law of Arizo-
ma. The effect of that law, it Is
charged, would be to disfranchise a
large number of the Oldest and most
substantial citizens of the territory by
reason OF their ability to interpret the
Constitution of the United States in
English.
The House bill would make the pres
ent Arizona law the test of qualiti-
cations of citizens to vote. 1t is ia
vored by Democrats in both houses
and probably will engender the hottest
fight of any of the provisions. Repub-
licans' in Arizona contend that it's rec
ognition would make the proposed new
state of Arizona certainly Democratic.
The requirement of the Senate bill that
the constitutions of the proposed states
must be approved by the President and
Congress is defended by Senator Bev-
eridge as a measure of justice and
safety.
The same requirement was made in
connection with the admission to state
hood of louisiana Alabama and Texas.
Another decided difference between the
Senate and the House bills is the require
ment in the former that separate elections
must be held for the ratification of the
constitution\and for the selection of state
and other officers. precedent for such
a requirement exists in the case of the
admission of Colorado.
Striking features of the Senate bill are
the restrictions thrown about the dispo-
sition of public lands and the appropria-
ton of 100000 acres to each territory
for the payment of county railroad bonds
which have already been validated by act
of Congress.
The House bill appropriates 100000
acres to each territory and contemplate
the payment of all bonds outstanding. The
Senate bill would withdraw for the gov
eminent all of the Saline lands in New
Mexico.
Another decided difference between the
two bills is in relation to polygamy and
bigamy, of which Senator Beveridge says
in his report:
"The House bill would permit the prac-
tice of polygamy and bigamy. nothwith-
standing the various prohibitions there

UN,VERSALlST MEMS CLUB.
Talk on Socialism Monday
Evening by w. S. McGooch.

The Mems Club of the Universalist
church had as it's speaker last evening
w. S. McGeoch of Portland. The subject
was Socialism: What 1t Is and What 1t
Is Not"
The speaker began by noting the great
change of opinion in regard to Socialism,
This is due to the great spread of the
doctrine in Europe and to the trustifica-
ton of industry in our country 1t is
said that like Heinzes pickles there are
81 varieties of Socialism. But in fact there
is but one true Socialism and that is
the system based on the teachings of
Karl Marx. There are in the world 10000
000 of Socialists. A system which inter
ests so many is worth studying.
Socialism is not to be COMPOUNDED with
anarchy. 1t is Numerically opposed to
anarchy either as represented IN the
bomb thrower, the philosophic anarchist
or the anarchstic rich.
Socialism does not believe in what is
generally spoken of as dividing up 1t
seems that we are now dividing up pref
ty largely with someone. In our industrial
development we passed from Roman
slavery through Federalism to our pres
ent Capitalism Our condition is the nat
ural result of the competitive system.
The wealth of the country is doubling
in each twenty years. But the wealth
is going to the few. We and our chill
dren's children will pay tribute TO the
children's children of the owners of the
trusts. The income of J. p. Morgan from
one trust formed by him is nine illion
dollars per year, or more than the earning
power of all the laborers of Portland.
Socialism proposes to take over the So
cial means of production and distri-
button of wealth. 1t does not plan to take
over private property nor small industries.
There are millions out of employment.
This is said to be due to reproduction.
In fact it is due to under-consumption
the workers have not money enough to
buy back the wealth they have produced
The difficulty is that We produce pri-
marily for profit and not for use. What
Socialism asks for is simply that there
shall be the management in behalf of the
people and by them of all their interests
1t does not reduce anyone to dead
level. 1t simply puts all upon the basis
of their best selves. Robert Hunter said
thousand school children sent to school
daily in hunger A leading physician
in New York says the figure should be
two hundred thousand. We talk of race
suicide. Shall we not satisfy the hunger
of the children we have in so rich land?
People are now studying the causes
And what are the causes for these con-
ditions?
Again it is said that Socialism would
bring paternalism. How can there be pa
ternalism to ourselves? Neither does So
cialism destroy the home. By better con-
ditions the home will be what it ought to
doom 1t is now facing"
At the close of the address the speak
er was warmly applauded and he was
given rising vote of thanks. There
were about 60 members present. The
next and last meeting of the Club will
be held on Monday evening, April %. The
hosts for that meeting will be ]. W. Beck.

makes the hair soft and fluffy, beside

be free from pimples, blotches and skin
eruptions-and instead of a sickly, sal

glow of health in your cheeks. When
