WHAT ARMY WOMEN SALT may
not be generally known that the wo-
men of the United States army, or
rather the female relatives of men,
bers of the army have petitioned Con-
gress to restore the canteen, and
their opinion shall 60 very far to-
wards settlement of the vcxcd queS-
ton of whether intemperance and
Generalization incident thereto is ad-
varced or lessoned by the policy
urged and acted upon at the sugges-
ton of professed temperance people,
Evidence goes to show that since
the canteen was discontinued there
has been a steady increase of drink
ing, and intemperance has succeeded
by debauchery. Surely the women SO
intimately connected with soldier-life
have the best means OF instituting a
comparison of effects. and the first
right to ask for the policy that will
yield the best results. The canteen
controls essential matters that have a
great influence in the drinking habit.
The wisest of reformers endeavor tC
control what they cannot abate, and
it always works better IN attempts
to control appetite by law.

ONE OF the worst blows OF this or
any other season was experienced at
Port Townsend Monday, when q gale
from the Southwest attained a velo-
city of 60 miles an hour sending spray
80 feet in the air, and driving in the
the water. during an unusually high
tide till it submerged Water street.
The liner Queen, with more than 100
passengers, had this storm behind
her while in the Straits, en- route from
San Francisco TO Seattle, and as a
consequence made one of the fastest
trips on record. This storm was noted
as quite severe also at Astoria, Mon.
day morning, and continued nearly
all day.

delegates to the National Democratic

secure suitable hotel accommoda.

large excursion steamers, which will
anchor in the bay and provide sleep

who have signified their intention OF
attending the gathering. BY sleep
ing aboard the boats. the braves will
escape much Of the midsummer heat

plenty of room. The Tammany men

How some MEn LIvE.-In a discus
sion of a time-limit on days of labor
before the Senate committee, last
week, the notable hell-holes" of the
U. S. Steel corporation came in for
excoriation. Chairman Borah de-
clared that some corporations had
gone so far as to need Federal atten-
ton. 1t is shown from reports of
the Department of Commerce and
Labor on ths steel industry. that
while that corporation is paying
millions in dividends it has in its
hell-holes" men who work twelve
hours daily seven day in week. and
others who work Is and "a hours
in one shift. 1t seems that it is this
capacious cormorant that sets the
pace, to some extent. for the National
Association OF Manufacturers, who
protest against being made the
vicarious victims of abuse in our
industries"

Jury System.

1t the recent examination for al
mission to practice law, held in
Olympia, under supervision of the
Supreme Court of this State, one OF
the questions propounded was as
follows:
Ii the State Constitution OF Washing
ton should bc amended by providing
that in all criminal prosecutions before
the Superior Court for the commission
of ielonies, after the taking effect Of the
amendment, except in those eases in
which the punishment may be capital,
the trial jury shall consist of eight per-
sons. and in the latter Capital cases.
the Jury shall consist Of twelve persons,
the verdict 10 be unanimous in all crlln-
inal prosecutions in order To convict.
would this amendment conflict with any
provisions Of the Federal Constitution"
If so, designate the same.
There were various answers to this
interrogatory. Comparatively few of
the applicants thought the amend
ment would square with the United
States Constitution.
The Supreme Court Of the United
States has affirmed the constitution
atty of such provision, in the Utah
case, Maxwell against Dow, l76 U.
S. 58I.

In This Thing Our State Leads.

Miss Edith Campbell of Cincin-
natl, an educator OF considerable
note, lately startled the child labor
conference. at Louisville Ky, by the
candid announcement of conviction
long entertained by her that the
teachings in public schools from the
Sixth grade Up, through the high
school and even the colleges derive
no economic benefit from advanced
instruction OF girls. She cited num-
erous instances wherein college girls
were compelled to work for smaller
wages than women with little or no
education from books. And Prof.
Levitt of the University of Chicago,
on the same line Of thought, declared
that schools Of the future must pro-
vide incomeyieiding work. How
admirably does such agitation empha-
size the progress made in estab
fishing the Domestic Science cult of
course prescribed for the senior
classes in our high school. The re-
suit has been that our State has be-
come famous for taking the lead in
one of the most admirable forms of
education for development of woman
hood. The girls have met with an
approval from high sources that
has awakened an ambition that has
hitherto laid dormant, and there is
no fear but that it will in the course
OF time become as universal as many
of the special preparatory studies
and practical methods afforded their
male brothers.
Our people adopted the right plan
for arousing this cooperation. They
turned over the task of entertain
ment so far as providing luncheons
and meals for many eminent visitors,
to the Domestic Science class. and
they could not be otherwise than
delighted, and spread the news on
their return home to the notable
innovation they found in the far
West, and with such Aattering en-
dorsement the custom has found imi-
tators in district that has had o
century for progress in aesthetic civ
lization.
Let it never be again charged that
girls are not capable of developing as
charming a proficiency and one as
capable of commanding as good q
means of support as man.

Duke Of Fife. brother-in-law of King
George V. of Great Britain. died at
Assam, Egypt. Monday, from a
complication of ailments contracted
when he and his family were ship
wrecked and nearly drowned, after
the steamer Delhi struck the rocks of
Cape Spartel, in December. The
death of the Duke. so far from home,
is the sad climax Of a series of mis-
fortunes which befell the house of
Fife, after they set sail from England

first day Of the meet and saw all
kinds OF maneuvering in the clouds,
five and six planes in the air ut one

in aerial stunts-some for endurance
tests, some for high fights and some
for speed, ev0lutions, etc. 1t was all
very interesting because it is out of
the Ordinary-we all like the seem
ingly impossible and have a natural
curiosity to see something we never
saw before, especially if accompanied
with great risk. The principal &C

day and his ship made q total wreck.
He jumped from height of fifty feet

struck on his head and broke his

While aeronautics is very inspir-
ing and thrilling I think it will be
some time before it will become prac-
tical as the structure is necessarily
extremely fragile and the flights,
more or less hazardous. Perhaps
there is no other locality in the Unit
ed States better suited for aero
nartics, at this season Of the year,
than Los Angeles. The park near
here is an ideal starting point, hav-
ing an elevation of at least 500 feet
