Say the Bill Favors the
Railroads.

Washington, May 4.-When the SEN
ate met at ten minutes before II o'clock
yesterday, Senator Reed of Missouri re-
sumed his long speech against the work
mems compensation bill, a vote on which
was to be had yesterday. A poll OF the
Senate showed that the bill would prob
ably pass, despite the determined tilibus-
ter against it. 1t is believed that the
opposition was begun too late to be
effective.
The objection which Senators Reed,
Hoke Smith, Bacon and Others have to
the bill is that it is in favor OF rail-
roads and ''bears no provision in favor OF

said this country must come to an ar
rangement where it would have a re-

Says Gen Wood:
1--WE would not want to think that
we see any bugaboo in the form of war
coming across the seas. Yet we all
know that wars occur and they are liza
Bile to come at any time. We realize
that we must be prepared for war at
any time, and we realize that unde-
veloped war resources in the event
of war are as useless as an undeyel-
oped gold mine in Alaska in a Well
street financial crisis.
eve have never had war with a first
class power of the world alone, though
in the civil war this country developed
two of the greatest armies the world
has known. Yet we speak of having
liked Great Britain twice, but let us
come down to the unpleasant facts.
ASK any student of military history
what the condition was when the
French came to our assistance in the
revolutionary war and made Yorktown
possible. In the war of 1912, Eng
land was engaged in the crisis of the
war with Napoleon.
we have plenty of good men in this
country, but they are unframed and
iundisciplined This has been the sit
uation in past wars The war with
Mexico was successful, but Mexico was
not first class power ready for war
Now since the Spanish war the
United States has been recognized as
world power. We now occupy various
possessions. We occupy the Philippines
but no one knows how long we may
occupy them. Our occupancies have
brought their troubles with them.
eve must realize at all times that
the armies of our possible enemies are
always ready How will we get men
if We are plunged Unexpectedly into
war? The system of short service and
holding men under power for a certain
number of years is probably our only
salvation.
eve do not want to hold the enlisted
man for long terms. 1t is far more
profitable to return him to his civic
position trained and ready to come
back to the army as a genuine fighting
man at any time. The proposition of
holding man 80 years and then plae-
ing him under a pension is failure"

MANY OLD THEORIES ARE DISCREDITED

those cities which have the largest
immigrant population, wages are high
est, and in those where foreign COM
petition is least, wages are lowest. But
where there is the least foreign com
petition there is the highest ratio of
child labor.
In the matter of labor organizations,
it is found that the best conditions pre-
vail where the immigrants are most
numerous, and that the trade unions
are most successful among the for
eign-born workingmen. The number
of organized workingmen in New York
with its large foreign-born popula-
lions from Southern and Eastern Eu-
rope, is relatively much greater than
in Kansas, where more than nine
tenths of the workingmen are native
born.
DR.. Hourwich reaches the following
conclusions
% immigration does not displace
native American labor;
(2) immigration varies inversely
with unemployment; it does not in
crease the rate of unemployment;
60 immigration does not lower the
standard of living;
ca 1t does not reduce the rate OF
wages, but it has pushed native Ameri-
can laborers into the more skilled and
more remunerative occupations;

reduced in the communities in which
Immigration has been great;

ems as freely as natives.

A BASHFUL BOYS KISS COST
MRS. ACKERMAN DEARLY
She Breaks Two of Her Ribs and an Arm in a Twenty
Five. Foot Fall, Struggling at Barn Dance With the
Protesting Unkissed Youngsters

New York, Dec. A fourteen-year-
old boy, during an intermission at a
barn dance held at New Bridge, near
Hackensack, n. J., became so interest
ed in Mrs. Winfield Alderman that he
felt called upon to tell her the story of
his life.
In the recital he made the startling
admission that he had never been
kissed. Thereupon Mrs Alderman
asked him if he would allow her the
signal honor of making the initial in
scription on his facial slate. The boy
blushed and backed away.
Mrs. Alderman rose and repeated
her request. The youngster blushed
more furiously than before and ran
toward the door.
IN kiss just for fun" cried Mrs.
Alderman starting after him, while
the other dancers, who had switched
their attention from the entertainment
to the incident, laughed and shouted
encouragement

boy finally sprang out into the open.
Mrs. Alderman caught him, but he
wriggled free and then dashed around
the room, with the young woman keep

When she caught him the second
time Mrs, Alderman held him tightly.
He yelled and fought, seeking to
squirm from her grasp. This he con-
tinued while she backed him against a
double door. She was bending over to
kiss him when the door gave way and
the boy and Mrs. Alderman both fell
through to the ground, twenty-five feet
below.
The fall had come so uneXectedly to
the young woman that she could make
no effort to save herself. She suffered

INDIANA REPUBLICANS

Indianapolis, Ind. Jan. 25-The an
nual roundup of the Indiana Republi-
can Editorial Association in this city
today caused an influx of editors and
politicians from all over the state. Es-
pecial interest attached to the meet
ing from the fact that the proceedings
are expected to reflect the sentiment
of the rank and file of the Republican
party in Indiana on the subject of the
presidential nomination. The selec-
tion OF Senator Norris Brown of Ne
braska to deliver the principal address
at the association banquet is regarded
as of much significance. Senator
Brown is Taft supporter and a

Everybody knows that most of our
birds come north to their nesting
grounds in the spring and go south In
the fall. Some of the longest jour-
neys are made by the smallest birds.
A few species leave the far north In
August and September, making enor-
nous flights over the ocean to winter
homes In the southern hemisphere.
Thus the golden plover leaves Nova
Scotia and flies without n stop straight
to South America, winterlng on the
pampas of Argentina, journey Of
some 5000 miles, $500 being over the
ocean. without stop even for food.
On the Pacific side the golden plover
leaves the Aleutian islands and goes
$500 miles to Hawaii without rest
and winters in the southern hemi-
sphere from the Society islands to
Australia. With this bird the north
ward trip is slow, and the eastern
group crosses the continent of South
America. Mexico. the great plains and
across Canada TO its arctic nesting
grounds. while the western birds go
up the Malay peninsula and along the
Chinese and Siberian se1b0ard. Thus
these birds make the enormous jour
ney of 10000 to $1,000 miles each
year.-St. Nicholas.

japanese houses are built rather to

foundations firmly imbedded into the
earth there are fiat stones. on which
