The Washington correspondent of the Chicago Record Herald announces tO the country as an eminent sign of the progress of the peace movement that the Russian government has in- dicated to the state department its de- sire tO follow the example of Englan1 and France. by making reaty of un- limited arbitration with the United States. The fact, if made good in prac tice, will certainly mark the force of the peace movement in the particular that power whose acts toward weak CT neighbors tally poorly with the spir- it of international justice. finds it worth while to make so fair a profes- sion.
 But judging Russia by her present attitude toward Persia, and her former attitude with regard to China, it is inn possible to place much faith in the genuineness of desire to adopt the fundamental principle of restraining her acts toward other nations within the rules of peace and justice. It is taken for granted that if Russia es- tablishes unlimited arbitration with the United States it must include a modern, satisfactory treaty of resi- dence. commerce and travel, without against any class or race.
 But in Russia's case there is more

 It is estimated that the Federation Of Master Cotton Spinners of Eng land have now over 16O.000 weaverS out. because of their trouble with the union. These weavers are employed in the mills in the north and north west or the county of Lancashire. About an equal number of spinners have been reduced to part time. The Federation of Master Cotton Spinners are also curtailing production. They began on the first of January to stop work three days in each week. If the trouble should be prolonged. the employers threaten to stop all work completely. and this would be loss of employment to over half a million people

CHILDHOOD

Every year the federal government spends thousands of dollars to main tain the health and wellbeing of the horses. cows, mules anu sheep of the country, says the Kansas City Star. This work is done through the bureau of animal industry and has been of great value to the farmers of the na- tion. It will be continued. and 1t ought to be.
 The children of the nation, however. have never been considered a subject of enough importance to get help from the federal treasury.
 There is before congress a bill which, if passed. will create a chil- dren's bureau That bureau will do, in part at least. for the boys and girls who have no childhood what the bur eau of animal industry is doing for the mules and sheep. It will investi- gate conditions and bring the influence of publicity to bear upon them. It will show what has been done and what can be done to lessen juvenile to improve the health of to save the lives of babies, to get rid of child labor.

reasonable to believe that with this admitted sequence the administration bill would follow La Follettes ideas. The proof that it did do so is contained in the following passage. which has so been interpreted by the union and the independent press Of tn, entire state

Labor organizations all over the country are issuing protests against the recent acquittal of the Triangle shirtwaist factory owners in New York. The men were on trial for negligence of duty and violation of the laws as affording proper pro- lection to their employees when their factory was burned last fall and over 100 shirtwaist makers lost their lives.
 A well-known southern planter says that there is period in the south when negro farmhands change their homes, quit one employer for another This annual migration of negro la bor is always most pronounced when the crop turns out badly or when un- fOrseen circumstances arise. such as this year. when the price is so low that profits to labor are small. Be- fore moving. all farmhands want a settlement. This causes an unusual pressure of cotton on the market. because farmers must sell it to pro- vide themselves with cash.

STONED IN CHICAGO
Because She Rode in Hiah Ooq
 Cart.

In the January American Magazine Is an interesting sketch of Mrs. J. T. Bowen of Chicago. woman Of wealth and ability. whose contribu- tions toward the betterment of her city are described in an article by Jane Addams. Following is an eX- tract from the article. showing how Chicago used to treat anybody who undertook to establish metropolitan standards there:
 Chicago, in spite of its size and somewhat world-weary aspect. is yet so ahsurdly young that inhabitants of oid Fort Dearborn are still living and children and grandchildren re- call spirited recitals of Indian fOrays repulsed from it's first stockade one o' these. Mrs. Joseph T. Bowen, heard many stirring adventures from her grandfather Edward H. Hadduck. who in the early thrties drove prairie schooner from Detroit containing s2O0,O0O in gold which the United States government sent to Fort Dear born. The young government en- plOye, much impressed with the ship ping facilities at the foot of Lake Michigan. returned to Fort Dearborn the following year. and this time the prairie schooner carried his bride and the household equipment of d pioneer.
 Louise Hadduck deKoven. the sub ject of this sketch. was their only grandchild The family lived for many years In red brick house on the corner of Wabash avenue and Monroe street, past which punches of cattle were continually driven on their way to the stockyards.
 Young Chicago was striving in many ways to be more fashionable, and Miss deKoven at the age of 15 assumed her obligation in this direc- ton by appearing in the first high dog-cart which the city had ever seen. Both she and the liveried man behind her were at times vigorously stoned as a demonstration of demOc- racy. and on one occasion the groom. exasperated by these missiles and holding democratic principles of his own, jumped down from the cart as it was crossing Rush street bridge. flinging his despised coat and high hat into the back of it as he hOtly announced: You can take this liv- cry over town if you want to, but you can't take me- The undaunted young girl drove on without looking back. sustained by the reflection that the incident only made clearer the neces- sity for metropolitan standards in Chicago"

In Westminster some time ago the Grosvenor Dairy com pany established penny-in- the-slot milk delivery machines. On insert ing penny and pressing handle, half pint of milk ran out of a tap This device has the advantage that milk can be obtained at hours when the shops are shut.
 Then, again, q number of German villages have d penny-in-the-s slot sys- tenn of nocturnal illumination. At Jockets, near Plauen, in SaSony, for example, where they go to bed early, the lights are all out at II o'clock. But timid late-goer, by dropping a penny in the box at the foot of one of the electric light standards, can Illuminate half the village 4 second penny lights up the other half. At Zarkau. in Silesia, they have a simi- lar arrangement. A penny lights up through the village for twelve min utes
 In this county the spread of auto matic machines has sometimes run the royal mint into q corner, owing to the locking up of vast stores of pennies. In the borough of Nelson alone thirty-two tons of pennies were put in the slot gas meters last year. These meters, indeed, are utilized by the thrifty people of Lancashire and Yorkshire as money boxes, wherein money may be savey. They rely on the gas collectors tO return them the excess coins when they visit the meter, and apparently this is done. In Wigan the custom has become d regular institution. One years har- vest of excess coins from gas meters here yielded sovereigns. h half sovereigns. half crowns. 465 florins. 502 shillings, l34 sixpences, 250 and 334 half-pennies.--I London Standard
