CLASH OVER NAME
Of WHITE HOUSE
At CLUB SESSION
Members Disagree Over
Charge Title Is One of
Contempt.

A discussion. in which Fred Fishback.
clerk Of the Senate Committee on Rules,
declared that the term white House,
was one OF contempt, and should not
be applied to the home OF the Presi-
dent. was held last night in the rooms
OF the Washington Club after Mrs.
Abby Gum Baker had read a paper
on that historic mansion. Mrs. Baker
said the White House now stands on
what was the farm OF David Burns
just after the Revolution. Burns gave
portion OF his farm to the govern
ment for the White House grounds.
and sold portion Of It.
When the matter of a design for the
White House came up, a prize of $500.
or its equivalent in the shape OF a
medal. was offered for the architect
who turned In the best design. James
Hoban. a young Irishman who had
come to America to design the State
house for South Carolina, was urged
bv Governor Laurens. of South Car
olina, to submit a design for the White
House. Hoban submitted design
which was selected. and received the
prize. He took $50 Of 1t in a medal.
and the remainder in money.
Mrs. Baker showed that a great deal
OF the original walls of the building
are still in place, and were not de-
stroyed when the British burned the
White House during the war of 1872.
Part of the old structure still shows
signs OF smoke gotten on that occa-
sion. Most OF the woodwork Is ma
hogany All of the china and hard
ware in the White House when John
Adams moved In was brought over
from England. some OF which is still

Mrs. Adams complained very bitterly
after she moved In because, although
the house was completed, there was no
way by means OF which to summon SER
wants to her, To remedy this the COM
mittee in charge of the White House
wrote to Alexandria, then a much larger
place than Washington. for eight or
ten bells, which were finally installed
for the comfort of Mrs. Adams.
In the beginning Mrs. Baker had
thought to make her address treat ex-
Clusively of the alterations OF the White
House. but there was so much of in
terest in the selection and first building
of the White House she dwelt on that,
and did not touch upon the alterations
at all.
After the address the members of the
club discussed the matter of naming
the White House. with lively interest

A PROGRESSIVE LONE. HAND.

In few impressive words of admontion against
entangling alliances Colonel Roosevelt breathes the
spirit and wisdom of the Progressive Party.
No deals nor dickers anywhere lone nand for
the Progressves in every legislature, in Congress, is
a winning hand for the party to play Let the.Demo-
Gratis and Republicans do all the dealing and dcker-
ing Their machines have the interests Of special
privilege in common The Progressive program
is to stand aloof, Keeping unhnchngly to the prin-
cples we put down in the last campaign and showing
by our works the faith that is in u.s."
That's the way to talk; that's the way to act!

A CHRISTMAS APPEAL.

Please, ladies, do your Christmas shop
ping now. Not that it makes any difference
to the shops, but it does make world of
difference to the women who work in them
It's splendid theme that we celebrate
at Christmas and it is our custom here to
celebrate it greatly; but it has it's burden of
service as well as its benefits of gifts, and we
can make its spirit sweeter by giving thought
today to that business of Christmas buying
which most of us are prone to overlook until
tomorrow.
These young women Of the stores who
stand just now as patient sentinels to your
wishes have some fances of their own to
follow at this time of year, some modest
hopes to realize that might seem, did you
think of them, sublime in their simplicity.
If you make it so they will work until the
line of midnight on Christmas eve to see
that you are satisfied; and it, by shopping
now, you make it otherwise they will be not
unmindful of your forethought.
So, for the sake Of these young women
of the stores, we make this sentimental ap-
peal quite frankly to your sentiments and, il
you care to heed it, this Christmas spirit
will be larger thing that each of us can
hold in common property.

NO BATHTUB IMMUNITY.

In the latest of the long line of decisions con-
STRUNG and clarifying the scheme of the Sherman
law, the United States Supreme Court again shows,
as it so often has shown, that no harmful restraint
Of trade can be carried on without violating the
terms OF the antitrust statute.
The Bathtub trust sought to shield its unlawful
price agreements and other means of monopoly be-
hind the rights conferred to it as the owner of
licenses under the patent law. The Supreme Court
unanimously brushes aside this plea of immunity
with the sharp remark that "the agreement clearly
transcribed what was necessary to protect the use
OF the patent or the monopoly which the law con-
ferred upon it, and that they accomplished re-
straint OF trade condemned by the Sherman law" d"
The subterfuse 50 condemned was always trans
parent But 1t is to such feeble pleas that conspr-
ators IN restraint of trade are reduced by con-
tinuous process of Supreme Court condemnation of
technlcallties resored to in efforts to cheat the
Sherman law. There is little left for the awbreakers
to depend on when they are called to the bar 1t will
not be long until, when they are caught with the
goods on" they will plead guilty and throw them
selves on the mercy of the court

TEN!STARRED FLAG
SUFFRAGE EMBLEM
At BIG C0NCLAYE
New Banner for Women
Since Victory in Four
States.

PHILADELPHIA. Nov. 2o.-Elated
over the recent addition Of four stars
to their flag. hundreds of delegates TO
the forty-fourth annual convention of
the National American Woman Suf-
frage Association, which meets tomor-
row for five days session, are here
today preparing to give to THE cause"
the most notable impetus since the
inception OF the equal franchise move
ment. The women have come from
eveTy section of the country.
Witherspoon Hall, where the most
of the sessions will be held. has been
decorated for the occasion.
The six-star flag, conspicuous at the
former conventions OF the organization,
gives way this year to the ten-star
flag. the four new stars representing
the States of Michigan, Kansas, Ore
Ron, and Arizona, which adopted wOm-
an suffrage amendments at the recent
elections.
The meetings will vary In character
from a great outdoor rally In lndepend-
cnce Square on the opening day to a
Thanksgiving service on Sunday after
noon in the Metropolitan Opera House.
At the formal opening of the con-
vention tomorrow night Miss Jane Ad-
dams, of Chicago, will preside, and
the national president. the Rev. Anna
Howard Shaw, will deliver her annual
address.
special program has been prepared
for the Independence Square rail-; to-
morrow. The original woman's declara-
tion of rights will be read. and Mrs.
Charlotte Peirce. the only living signer,
Will be present.
The Sunday afternoon Thanksgiving
servl2e In the opera house probably
will be the largest indoor Suffrage
meeting ever held in this country The
background of the stage will be- a huge
world map, showing the progress OF
the suffrage movement up to date. All
the suffrage territory will be painted
in bright red The Rev. Anna II. Shaw
will preside. and among the speakers
will be Miss Jane Adams and Miss
Julia Lathrop. the latter the newly
appointed head of the Chidren's Bu-
reau.
Speakers who will be heard at the
night sessions well include many per-
sons OF national or international prom.
lnence, including Mrs. Robert NJ. La
Toilette and Baroness Won Suttner.

THE CONVICTION OF THE GUNMEN.

1t is necessary to 60 back few years to the
long-drawn-out travesy on criminal procedure which
afforded by the Thaw trials to appreciate fully
what progression is marked by the conduct of the
cases growing out of the Rosentha murder 1t is a
for national satisfaction that so much of i'm
provement can have been effected in so short time
The trials of Becker first and of the four gunmen
later, were not made public spectacles to grace
metropolitan holiday There seemed to be in the
mind of the court and tine prosecuting lawyers alike
the simple purpose of getting at the truth and secur
ing verdict based on it. Justice Golf and District
Attorney Whitman are entitled to divide honors and
credit for what has been done. The district attorney
has demonstrated what directness and vigor in the
pursuit of a case will accomplish.
Even more important than that these five men
have been convicted is the fact that the underworld
Of New York has been given demonstration that
systems, pulls, alliances and money will not stay
the hand of'justice. The circumstances surrounding
these cases constituted awful revelation of the
possible deeps to which organized crime could drag
down great community 1t seemed doubtful if the
orderly execution of the law could be possible in such
situation. Yet out of this morass of corruption and
depravy there has come most signal proof that
law and justice cannot be overturned in an American
community 1t has been an inspiring and encouraging
lesson to the whole nation.
1t is to be admitted that the demonstration is not
yet complete. The convicted men have yet before
them the possibilities of appeals rerias and further
appeals Consistent with proper adherence to the
legal propreties that safeguard the rights of every
accused person. it is most to be hoped that the rest
of these proceedings may be as prompt business
like, and effcacious as the business that has been
transacted in Justice Goff's court.

LOS ANGELES NEWEST NEAR.HoRRoR.

Only the other day The Times urged, as protec-

explosives and concealable weapons ought to be
strictly regulated 1t did not take long for the pro-
posal to receive point and emphasis in the nerve
racking story from Los Angeles Of manacs at

The public has not recovered from its horror
over the Los Angeles Times crime it is reading day
by day the revelations of the nationwide dynamite
conspiracy of which even that astounding crime was
but an incident. Only few weeks have lapsed
since the attempt Of a madman on Colonel Roose-
velts life. These are only high spots in the pro-
cesson of tragic events that almost daily emphasize
the necessity for rigid measures of protection against
the possibility of such crimes.

conrivances and high explosives the fact that men
may cart these instruments of death and horror about

ARCHBALD'S TRIAL
FIRST ON SENATE'S
CROWDED PROGRAM
Single Presidential Term
Will Be Pushed by Works
and Cummins.

In spite OF the fact that little legisla-
tion is usually enacted at the short
session, the Senate is looking forward
to an extremely busy winter.
The case OF Judge Robert w. Arch
bald. who will be tried on the impcach-
ment OF the House, will lie the first
important matter considered. Nobody
knows how long this will take. The
Senate will reconvene as court OF
Impeachment at 1890 Tuesday, Decem.
Der 3. The House managers are ex-
pected to submit a reply to the answer
OF Archibald. filed about the close OF
last session. More than 100 witnesses
will testify. The case will not be con-
cluded, II is expected, until well along
In January.
The proposed constitutional amend
ment for single term for the presi.
dent will be pushed by Senator Works
and senator Cummins. President Taft
and William J. Bryan, having come
out for the one-term idea, additional
interest will be given this question.
Speaker Clark and Leader Underwood
are for the one-term plan, 1t IL under
stood. and so IL II passes the Senate
1t will doubtless pass the House.
The kenyon-Sheppard bill to shut
liquor out OF dry territory is a special
order In the Senate for December H.
II probably will pass the Senate, but
Its chances In the House are doubtful.
The agricultural education bill will be
pressed bv Senator Page of Vermont,
and the Department Of Health bill will
be urged by Senator owen.
Appropriation bills will be disposed
OF largely In committee, and will have
comparatively short shrift in the Senate
proper.
Senator Cummins will try to get the
civil service retirement bill considered,
but II probably will be impossible TO
force II to passage at the short session.

GIRLS SUPERIOR TO
BOYS, SAYS TEACHER
Always Excel Where Painstaking
Care and Application Are
Needed, Stuart Declares.

"Apropos of teaching the young fem
inine idea how to shoot, at the Business
High School," said A. T. Stuart. di-
rector OF intermediate instruction IN the
schools OF the District, 1T may safely
be predicted that by spring the girls
will be able to shoot more accurately
than the boys.
Girls always excel boys where pains
taking care and application are involv-
ed. This Is true outside the schools, as
well as In them. although 1t is most
noticeable in the school room, where the
two sexes achievements are brought
into contrast ''- .-
1T may be true that in research work
In the universities women do not equal

do not stay at It long enough. but quit

HOW MR.. BRYAN MAY HELP.

William Jennings Bryan's retirement to Florida
for the winter ought not to be cynically interpreted
as an act unfriendly to Mr.. Wilson. He may really
mean it as help.
Mr.. Bryan could well calculate that with Speaker
Clark and Representative Underwood at the head of
a formidable force of anti-Bryanites at Washington,
party harmony might be furthered by his absence
from the council while if he undertook the direction
of Democratic destnies in Congress ne would get
some pretty plain snubs and embarrass the new
President. If this is the reckoning Of the Nebraskan
it oud be justified by what the publ:e knows Of the
bitterness of Champ Clark toward the man by whom
he was hamstrung in the Baltimore convention and
by the memory of what happened to Bryan when he
went to savage cnch with Oscar W. Underwood,
the Democrats of the House acting as umpires and
putting the Alabama statesman on top.
Incidentally the Commoners withdrawal to the
South will save him from the pest of oice-hunters
who will want mis- influence with Mr.. Wilson in pursuit
of the places for which the faithtu! are already
clamoring with hunger whetted by sixteen years OF
abstinence.

He was an old man with well-trimmed beard
and tired eyes. His clothes were pressed. His linen
was spotless His bearing had in it that touch of
subtle gentiliy which we associate always in our
minds with the defeated and the inefficient He stood
patiently outside an Office door and waited for ad.
mission so that he might seek work, the kind Of
clerical work, probably over which such men as he
have wasted the years that the locust hath eaten"
And as he stood without that door, so had he stood

the problems of life and never questioning the de.
