THE SERUAN7 PROBLEM IN NEw YORK

accommodations and the living are all
better, we are told, than those accord
ed the factory operatives, yet even
during the strike of the shirtwaist-
makers recently, while thousands of
young women engaged in this work
we're out of employment. it was found
impossible to induce any OF them to
accept employment as domestics. Why
should young women be SO averse to
entering domestic service? Is t the
attitude which housewives adopt to-
ward them? Are they made to feel
that they have sacrificed their indie
pendence, have degraded themselves?
Apparently they do not object to do
ing the same class of work in public
restaurants and hotels. Perhaps in the
long run it would not be a bad thing
for the country if the scarcity of do
mestic servants should not only con-
tinue, but should increase. Some of
the young ladies who are now grow
ing up would have little less time
for bridge and other diversions of
like nature, perhaps, yet they might
acquire in their stead accomplish
ments of far more value. Modern in
ventions have robbed house work of
its drudgery. We may yet come to
the time when the possession of
wealth will not carry with it surcease
from useful toll. Should that time
come, the heaping up of money, or the
ownership of it, may cease to be Of as
much Importance as it is now regard

connection with the Congressional
race in this district, and because l
know that / am in a measure respon-
sible for the opinion formed by many
that l would be candidate, l feel
that l should not longer let the mat
ter remain in doubt. Therefore, l
take this method of announcing to my
friends that will not be a candidate
at this time, for reasons not necessary
for me here to enumerate. In max
, ing this announcement, l desire at
the same time to express my unbound
ed gratitude to very many friends
from the several counties of the dis
trict, for the interest they have mani
tested in my behalf and the confidence
they seemed willing to repose in me;
and also to the press of the district
for the many very kindly mentions OF
my name and their voluntary proffers
of support. The kindly manner in
which my prospective candidacy was
received puts me under lasting obli-
cations, both to the people and the
press of the Sixth Congressional Dis
trict. and wish to thank them one
and all most heartily.
Respectfully,
J.D. DONALD.

Mr.. Richard R. Watson is one of the
many sons of the South who years
ago migrated to the great American
metropolis and made good" He is
now the head of the legal department
of New York city, which employs
some four hundred lawyers, clerks
and assistants. Mr.. Watson addressed
the Bar Association of Louisiana at
its recent annual meeting in Baton
Rouge, his subject being: Some of
the Duties and RESPONSIBILITIES of Mu-

Some of the things he said attest
the magnitude of things American.

We have troubles in the South, plen-

have not been able to get back into
the Union, ours is above all others
the most favored portion of all the
earth. Whenever we are disposed to
doubt this trip to other sections will
bring it home to us again, and if we
are unable for any reason to make
such trip, perusal of the newspa-

The servant problem in South Caro-

We learn from the annual report Of
the commissioner of licenses of New

Mayor Gaynor last Saturday, that 1t
is becoming harder and harder every
year to secure any sort of girls for
domestic service. and that Of the i'm
migrant girls only the lowest in the
social scale will enter work Of this
sort. During the last year the wages
of servants was increased about 50 a

Governor Sanders of Louisiana is
sending out letter to the press and
the public generally, in which he gives
the following sound and logical reas-
ons why the Worlds Panama Exposi-
ton should be held in New Orleans
rather than San Francisco. He says:
"Over sixty million of people live
within a radius of 1000 miles from
New Orleans, while in the same radius
from San Francisco there are only six
million people.
"The average railroad fare to New
Orleans for over rs per cent of the
people of this country to visit an
Exposition here will be $3.50, as
against $3.50 to San Francisco.
''It is proposed, because of the i'm
portance of the Panama Canal to the
Central and South American repub-
lies, to extend special invitations to
those Governments to participate, and
to the people of those nations to visit
this exposition For them New Or
leans is the only logical point. Even
if an exposition were held in San Fran
cisco, these people would pass through
New Orleans to get there. They can

two weeks less time than it will re-

in the world, and we anticipate no
difficulty in convincing congress of
this fact. However, We expect all of
the cities and towns and states east
of the Rocky Mountains, which will
be directly benefited by the canal
and exposition at New Orleans in cele-
bration of it's completion, to help us
with their influence when we present
our claims-and theirs-to the con-
gressional committees on May 26."

A WEAK WOMAN
AND HER STORY
In Floral, Ark, Lives a Lady Who
Feels That Her Strength Was
Restored by Cardui.

Floral, Ark.-"I must speak good
word for Cardui," writes Mrs. Viola
Baker, of this place.
"About a month ago was in very bad
health. | was so weak and nervous thai
was not able to do my housework.
"My husband bought me one bottle Of
Cardui, the woman's tonic. took it ac-
cording to directions and now am in
good health.
81 think Cardu is fine tonic for weak
women"
And you are not the only lady who
thinks SO, Mrs. Baker.
Thousands, like you, have written tc
tell of the wonderful benefit Cardui has
been to them.
Cardui contains no minerals, or other
powerful drugs. 1t contains no glycerin
or other Misunderstanding ingredients.
1t is just pure, natural extract, of
natural vegetable herbs, that have been
found to regulate the wOmanly functions
and strengthen the female system.

(By Associated PreSS.)

New Orleans, La, May 25.-Con-
gress will on May 26 sit in judgment
on the rival claims to federal recogni-
ton of New Orleans and San Francis
co, in the matter of the Panama Canal
celebration in 1915. The early COM
pletion of the canal necessitates an
early decision. Some weeks ago
strong delegation from Louisiana
went to Washington and secured
from President Taft and leaders in
congress what they interpreted as ID
practical endorsement of the New
Orleans plan and on the strength OF
that an initial working fund of more
than $1,000,000 has been raised and
arrangements made to raise another
81 900 900 through a direct tax.
Meanwhile San Francisco has
raised $5,O00,OOO and a big delegation
is now on the ground in Washington
urging the adoption by congress of a
resolution declaring San Francisco
the Panama Exposition city. At the
request of the Louisiana congressman
action has been postponed until New
Orleans can be given a chance to be
heard
A New Orleans delegation headed
| by Governor Sanders and Mayor Behr-
man, and fortified with the endorse
ment and monetary aid of every tax
payer in Louisiana and the endorse
ment of the Mississippi Valley of
many states and organizations east
of the Rocky Mountains and of some
of the Central American republics, will
lay before the congressional commit
tees a map showing in a striking way
the relative positions of the two cities.
This map indicates that by the cen
sus of 1900 there are 100000 peo-
pie within 500 miles of New Orleans,
and only 100000 within that distance
of San Francisco 65,000,0OO within
1000 miles of New Orleans, and only
100000 within that distance of San
Francisco, and that within radius of
1900 miles there are 90,OO0,0OO in the
New Orleans territory and only H.
100000 in the San Francisco territory.
The map also shows that all the
people of the Mississippi Valley, the
Northern and Eastern states, Central
and Eastern Canada, the West indies,
Mexico, Central and South America
and Europe can reach New Orleans
in much less time, at much less ex-
pense and with much less inconven-
ience than they can reach San Fran
cisco.
The delegation will in addition pre-
sent many other facts and figures,
which they claim cannot be offset by
the rival city.
I'VE do not believe San Francisco
can make out so strong case as we
can," said Chairman T. F. Thompson
Of the Worlds Panama Exposition
Executive Committee, the official in
charge. "Our movement is a popular
one in every sense Of the word
Every citizen of Louisiana will con
tribute his mite to make the millions
we will invest in the enterprise. Our
nearness to the Panama Canal means
that New Orleans will soon become
the port of entry and departure fol
United States mails to Central and
South America because We are the
logical point. If we are the Northern
continents logical point of contact
with the Southern Continent, we are
in truth the hub of the Western Hemis
phere; therefore, the logical site fol

quire them to reach San Francisco"
In addition to these general reasons
which should control Congress, Gov
ernor Sanders also gives special reas-
ons why the south and east should
be interested in securing the exposi-
tion for New Orleans. He says:
IF this exposition is held in New
Orleans, the millions of dollars which
will be expended in the construction
and maintenance of the great enter
prise, and the millions of dollars
which will be here expended by the
hundreds of thousands of people from
all parts of the world, will unques-
tionably remain in the Mississippi
Valley and in the South and, during
its idle period, this immense amount
of capital will find its way back to
the banks of the North and East.
''If this exposition goes to San Fran
cisco, these millions of dollars will
stay on the Pacific Coast, and not one
state East of the Rocky Mountains
will receive any benefit therefrom."
The simple statement of these un-
disputed facts carries conviction with
it; it needs no emphasis or argument;

for the holding of the Panama ex-

will act "for the greatest good to the
greatest number"

WALL OPPOSES MERGER.
Of the Utah Copper Company and the
Nevada Consolidated Copper
Company.
HERALD Specially

New York, Jan. 24.-In the United
States circuit court at Trenton today
argument was heard in the Injunction
proceedings started by Colonel E. A.
Hall to prevent the proposed merger
of the Utah Copper company and the
Nevada Consolidated Copper COM
pany. Colonel Wall was formerly the
owner of the Utah Copper company
Wall to prevent the proposed merger
he claims to be acting in the best in
terests of the stockholders Of the
company.
If the court grants Col. Wall a per-
manent injunction it will prevent the
special meeting called for tomorrow
for the purpose of increasing the
stock of the Utah company from $780,
900 shares to 100000 shares, which
it is purposed to exchange for the
shares of the Nevada Consolidated
Copper company on the basis of one
share of the former for two and one
quarter shares of the latter. In his
for an injunction Col. Wall
argues that the proposed combination
is in violation of the Sherman anti
trust law, and that the basis of con-
solidation is unfair to the Utah share
holders, as the Utah property, it is al
legged, is worth much more than indi-
Gated by the exchange basis proposed.
