TWO BATTLBSHIP
MEN ARE GAINING
The Curley-Sulzer Petition Now
Has Twenty.Six Signers.

(. With one battieship assured and with
the prospects for two ships growing
brighter daily. Representatives Suizer, Of
New York. and Curley. OF Massachu-
setts. yesterday continued their work for
the two-battleship programme. When the
House adjourned yesterday afternoon Mr.
Curiey had secured twenty-six signers to
the petition, which virtually pledges its
subscribers to hold out for the larger
programme. Mr.. Sulzer said yesterday
that with twenty-five Democrats voting
with him and the Republican minority
standing solid, he believed a two-battle-
ship victory to be probable. He hopes,
however. to bring the number of signers
up to thirty before the question comes
up for a vote.
There Is some doubt when the issue
will be fought out In the House Repre-
sentative Padgett, chairman Of the Navy
Committee. himself a one-battleship man.
said yesterday that 1t was his intention
to bring the question up in the House
Thursday. When the House adjourns to-
day II will be to meet again at 3 o'clock
Tomorrow afternoon, in order to permit
Republican members to attend the FORM

ferees up from the table at that time

however. that the matter will not be
brought before the House until some

Bx France. shnrer.

Apropos that foolish remark of a Colo
rado clergyman and the small tempest
it has created. 1t already has been digni-
fed by two serious attention. but 1t leads
10 certain other lines Of thought it was
not intended to inspire.
You remember. so far as their useful
ness was concerned. he consigned all
bachelor ma.ds'-maybe he called them
old maids; do not know--to the oblivion
and deadness of a desert isle, far be-
yond the northern sea-" It was supposed
that Miss Helen Gould had hurried to
the rescue. but the letter attributed to
her did not bear the natural stamp Of
her quiet dignity, and / am glad It had
other authorship. However. newspaper
interviews with Miss Jane Adams and
other prominent representatives of the
naligned type have been published, and
some of the writers would be glad to
send the tactless and unthinking clergy
man to the same lonely spot, where he
might think it-over for while.
Burden of His Complaint.
OF course the burden Of his complaint
against the unmarried woman and the
childless wife was that she was study
ing the progress of civilization and that
woman could only justify her existence
on the ground of motherhood; in that
way alone could she benefit the race.
He may not have put it quite that
way, but that was his meaning, and that
is the meaning OF a great many others
who think and talk concerning woman
and her duties.
Everybody knows that wifehood and
motherhood constitute the normal wo-
mans dream Of best happiness, and that
the service OF the true mother is beyond
comparison.
But one cannot read the newspapers
and watch the trend of life without
thinking that some of the gratuitous in
structions to women regarding the single
duty OF motherhood might well be d.
verted in different channels some times.
So long as the newspapers are filled with
stories of divorce, with the usual back
ground of ill-considered marriage, these
enthusiasts might better devote some Of
their energies to preaching the doctrine
of caution and the maintenance OF truer
standards. Better neither wifehood nor
motherhood than wifehood or mother
hood without the spirit that alone makes
them worth while. And 1t is not an un-
worked out theory that leads to that

conclusion; 1t Is life. We are hoping
that the unhappy marriage and the d.
yorce may grow less and less frequent,
but meanwhile why don't enthusiasts try
to influence young men and women to
think longer and more truly before they
leap into matrimonial waters?
Quality Better Than Quantity.
There is little fear that the institution
of marriage would suffer by the caution
and by the :dealization: the little god
of love in the human heart would take
care Of that. But some Of us sincerely
believe that the divorce courts would
suffer 1t would not mean fewer mar
riages. fewer mothers. but better mar
riages, happier and maybe truer moth
ers.
But when public and semi-pubIic men
conceive II their duty to urge upon all
women the duty OF wifehood and mother
hood without a caution and without q
proviso, then we think they might Tar
better be in other work, at least until
the records tell another story. Let them
preach and pray for the marriage In
which there is conscience. head, and
heart. and then, II their advice is worth
anything at all. civilization will be the
gamer For It really seems that in their
haphazard talk Of Just motherhood as
a supreme duty. unthinking folk are apt
to be lost in their estimate OF what
really counts.
sordid Sort of story.
1t was a sorry sort Of story that We
read about only the other day. A wife
In New Jersey, the mother Of two young
children. for some time had chafed under
the restrictions Of domestic existence. All
her early traditions. her nature, every
bit Of her called to a different life, and
at last she grew SO impatient and intol-
Grant Of a conventional social life and
the conditions her husband had chosen
for her that she simply cut adrift. She
says dcmesticity always palled upon her.
But didn't she know that in advance?
II, In our notions Of marriage, men
and women were taught that the supreme
thing was to make quite certain. taught
to be men and women, first, then wives
and mothers when conditions came to the
point of a happy meeting-ground. there
would be not only more happiness and
fewer divorces. but the progress Of cfvili-
zation would be given higher trend.
For 1t is the progress Of civilization
with which these earnest souls are most
concerned.

CLOVER FOR MOONsHINERS.
Necessary Funds Lacking to Keep
Raiders in the Field.

Because of a lack OF funds resulting
from the failure of Congress to pass the
appropriation bill providing for the work
of the Internal Revenue Department
forty men, employed on moonshine raid
ing. have been called of their work.
These men constitute the internal reve-
nue. police force. operating in West Vir-
ginia. Virginia, the Carolinas, Georgia,
Alabama, Tennessee, and Kentucky. The
withdrawal of these men. It Is feared by
the revenue authorities, may result In
moonshiners gaining the upper hand Of
the law. temporarily. Internal Revenue
Collector Cabell stated yesterday that
this action was deeply regretted. but that
it could not be obviated because OF the
lack of funds to keep the men on this
work. Scores OF other men employed in
various branches of the internal revenue
service will have to be withdrawn on
August II Congress does not grant the
necessary financial aid.
