broke down and admitted to Chas.
F. DeWoody, Department of Justice,
that her accusation was false.
MOrdaunt was discharged in the
municipal court shortly after his ar
rest, but certain talk made by the
Selwood girl caused DeWoody, scent
ing a violation of the Mann white
slave act, to further investigate.

nOthin gmoTe than a victim of con-
ditiOns prevalent among a certain
class of poorly paid department store
girls, teaTfUlly admitted she had in

ty Company at New Chicago, had her
hair caught in the betting, was lifted
to the ceiling, literally scaIped and
dropped to the floor unconscious and
bleeding, while almost a hundred

sufficient presence of mind to stop
the machinery.

hams, one of the wOrkmen, eXclaim-
ed. 'The girl had beautiful hair and
was passing one of the machines
when coil of it was slipped around
a belt running to pulley on the line
shaft at the ceiling. Before anyone
could interfere she was carried up
ward. If some one had run the belt
off both the machine and the loose
pulley the girl might have been saved,
but it all happened so quickly, and no
one thought"
The girls body was wedged be-
tween the line shaft and the ceiling
and the belt that clutched her hair
tore it out by the roots dragging her
scalp with it. Then she fell to the
floor.
She is in very serious condition
and is not expected to live.

THE SERVANT PROBLEM.

The servant girl problem is one which exists throughout the country and to which too much attention can not be given for those concerned on both sides of the question. the em- ployer and the employed. The scar city is due to the young women going store and factory work to the better paid and more wholesome employment at housewor ork. A St. Louis housewife and mother has attempted to solve the problem of the domestic worker by accepting them as daughters in law after they have remained under her direction and supervision for a prop CT period Having done this with three and found them worthy of her sons she has. stamped the plan a success.
 What effect this will have upon others who are concerned with the se- curing and retaining of help in the home is uncertain but it offers a valuable lesson and that is that it is possible through proper attention and oversight to give those employed in domestic work an interest therein by making something of them, making the work attractive and thereby show ing them that there is place for them in the household. It is such in stances as well as many others which are going to overcome the prejudice against housework, which now exists. It Is the proper spirit for djssoIv- ing any feeling of humilia ton between housewife and maid lso often exper- fenced.

THE MoRos, AcTIvIrv

From Manila comes disquieting fn- formation as to the readiness of the Fiipinos to govern themselves. which is liable to have it's effect upon con- gross when the Jones bill for the inde- pendence of the Philippines comes up for action. The attack of the Moros upon the scouts of the American army and the death list shows that savagerv is far from dispelled in the islands and is a timely indication of the con dltlon which exists there. and makes 1t apparent that what has been held to be one of the chief reasons for op- posing the independence, has not been overstated.
 In seeking the freeing of the Phil ippines there may be many actuated by proper motives but it requires but little study of the actual situation in the islands to realize that the time is not ripe for any such action That this country might be better off with out them does not constitute a proper reason for casting them off to shift for themselves. We assumed their management and have succeeded in giving them much valuable assist ance and given them the proper start which in time may lead to self gov ernment, but to abandon our duty when it has not been fully discharged is poor policy. The recent uprising shows the attitude of the people and indicates seonclaslEely what would fol-. low island freedom. This government has $ moral responsibility to discharge there and should not withdraw it's, activity in all it's branches until it is accomplished. Every tendency to stir up the tribal feeling and revotu- tionary trouble should be avoided

NAMES PosiIIoN.

It is a peculiar position which Gov ernor Haines of Maine takes concern ing the action of the New England governors in the endeavor to secure uniformity in legislation in this sec ton in regard to railroad problems. He is in accord with some of the propo- stitions and even recommends action in other directions for the benefit of Maine people but his attitude towards the entire effort is that of a disinter- ested party What the conference had in mind was the overcoming Of diffi- culties in the future based on what has been the experience of the past, -and if as Governor Haines says Maine has no quarrel with the Grand Trunk" it does not hold that uniform legislation is not the best thing for New England
 Maine of all the New England states could best be gotten along without in such an effort as that underway It is for the welfare of the respective states however that the movement is attempted and in the interest of bet ter conditions and service. and has properly begun what should produce good results. It doesn't aim at des- truction but tends to a better under standing in which all should join and through which Governor Haines might find something of value to Maine as tra1 transportation question is an inn portant one and should be handled on constructive and cooperative lines.

COLOMBIA'S CLAIMS.

For iong time there has been i'll feeling in Colombia towards this coun- try for the part 1t played in regard to Panama, and long have been the efforts to secure an adjustment of the claims which they make because of the part this country took in the affair. Former President Reyes is in this country at the present time press ing the claims of Colombia and he has great hopes of the new admins tration granting him a settlement, or an arbitration of the differences
 Concerning this question in which interest is being aroused The Boston Record believes that General Reyes
 hopes to see arbitration of the differ ences between his country and the United States though he agrees to the inevitable, that there is no question of the restoration of the territory that was taken from us." He agrees, also. that we expect to benefit more direct ly by the canal than any other nation. '' Quite right. Setting aside the ethical and political considerations involved, there is no question that materially Colombia will gain more than she lost by the Roosevelt direct action per- formance.''
 Panama is going to be one of the important gathers by the canal, but it is doubtful if that will offset her feeling towards Uncle Sam.
