The governor said that Adjutant
General Hamilton had written all of

states asking for their opinion on the

organizations in the southern states
were colored companies.

PLANS OF PROGRESSlVES.
Ballots for Women and Minimum
Wage Law.

Washington, April 9.-The legisla-
tive committee of the house caucus
of progressives got down to work
today, following a conference with
members of the legislative commit
tee of the national progressive party.
The house progressives met with
Walter Weyl, Dean Lewis of the Uni
versity of Pennsylvania, Paul Kel-
logg and Frances Keller and re-
viewed the ambitious legislative pro-
gram outlined by the house members
of the party.
Jane Adams, who was to have at
tended the caucus, is abroad, and
she will be called on later for her
views on progressive legislation. The
conference discussed at length the
details of the various measures to be
framed to embrace the reforms
urged by the progressive platform.
The legislative committee of the eau
Gus, headed by Representative Kelly
of Pennsylvania, Immediately took
up the work of drafting the bills and
some of them will be introduced in
the house at an early date.
In the formidable list of measures
making up the progressive platform
the efforts of the little group of leg
islators will probably be devoted to
passing two or three for considera-
tion. One of these bills will be a
measure calling for the establish
ment of an industrial commission to
regulate corporations, with powers
similar to those now exercised by the
Interstate Commerce Commission
over railroads. Special attention also
will be paid to a resolution providing
a constitutional amendment extend
ing the suffrage to women.
The progressives will urge also the
passage of a minimum wage law in
some form and today they seemed to
lean toward plan for a wage COM
mission to establish equitable scales
of wages.

PRIZES FOR CHILDREN
United States to Give Them for Best
Essays on Repair and Main
tenance of Roads.

A gold medal to the school boy or
girl between the ages of 10 and Is
who writes the best composition, not
to exceed 500 words, on the repair
and maintenance of earth roads, is
to be awarded by Logan Waller
Page, director, office of public roads,
United States Department of Agricul-
ture, Washington, D. C. All compo-
sitions must be submitted to Mr.
Page before May Is, 1913, and the
medal will be awarded as soon there
after as the compositions can be
graded The composition may be
based on knowledge gained from
books or other sources, bur no quo
tations should be made.
After many years experience in
dealing with the public road situa-
tion of the country, it is Mr.. Pages
belief that ignorance on the subject
of repair and maintenance of roads
is as much the cause of their bad
condition as any other one factor.
1t is expected that the composition
will bring about a better understand
ing of the subject of repair and
maintenance in the rural districts.
Many children living in the rural
districts have experienced the disad-
vantages of roads made impossible
through a lack of proper mainten-
ance, and it is expected that their
interest in the competition will stim-
ulate greater interest among the par
ents. Bad roads have prevented
many children from obtaining a
proper education and have even pre-
vented doctors from reaching the
side of rural patients in time to save
their lives.
Any child between the ages men
toned, attending country school
may compete. Only one side of the
paper must be written on; each page
should be numbered; the name, age
and address of the writer the name
and location of the school which he
or she is attending must be plainly
written at the top of the first page
The announcement of the competi-
tion has been sent to the superin-
tendents of schools in the rural dis
tricts. No further information can
be obtained from the office of public
roads. This announcements should
be plain to everyone, and all chill
dren will thus start on a basis ol
equality.

pose of securing eligibles from which
selection may be made to fill vacan-
cies in the forest and reclamation

aries paid are from $1,000 to 1900
per annum. Employment in the
reclamation service will be in con-
nection with the Sun river and Milk
river reclamation projects in Mon
tana, probably at Fort Shaw Ga camp
town on the railroad), at the Sun
river diversion camp, about 20 miles
from the railroad, at Malta. Mont. Ga
town of about 5000 and at Vandalia,
Mont, diversion camp Oh the rail-
road. The work win last for two or
three years, and efficient and capa-
BILE employees will probably be in de-
mand for transfer to some other
reclamation project when the present

prospects of advancement, which is
conditional only on demonstrated eff
ficiency.
Applicants for forest and field
clerk must have a knowledge of stem

Music for Badness.

Philadelphia Ledger: At last the
secret of the long-haired musician
has been solved His abundant and
wavy locks are not due to affectation
or dislike to the BARRIERS shop;
they are simply the natural result of
his profession, which is the greatest
hair-raiser and developer ever dis.
covered.
If you are bald, learn the violin
or piano, the strains of which have
an undeniably preservatice effect up
on the hair. All male pianists have
an Ysaye-like head of hair, and il
is notable fact, too, that the cello.
harp and the double bass all partake
of the beneficial effects of the piano
The claironet and the flute are also
beneficial, when one begins to get a
little thin on the top.
Brass instruments, however, will
make you as bald as a billiard ball
and the trombone and cornet despoil
the most hirsute man of his locks
with surprising speed and certainty
The trombone, indeed, is the worst
of all, for it is estimated that in
five or six years the player loses at
least go per cent of his hair.
Needless to say, the latter an
nouncement on the part OF M. Henri
de Parville, who makes these state
ments regarding music and badness,
has aroused considerable interest
among brass instrument makers, and
his views are backed up in no uncer-
tain manner by those in the profess
sion. One well-known musician
classifies badness among brass in
strumentalists as follows: About 80
per cent of the trombonists go bald.
and 60 per cent of euphonium play
ers and horn-winders; quite half the
cornet players lose their hair
through performing on that particu-
lar instrument, and about As per
cent of the bassoon players.
Furthermore, it is pointed out that
these instruments are also extremely
deleterious to the progress of the
mustache, but, curiously enough, en-
couraging to the beard. The flute,
when regularly played, it is said, has
a wonderful effect on the side whis-
kers; but there is always the danger
with these wind instruments of los
Ing not only the hair but the teeth,
and it Is mentioned that a bandman,
after exercising his art for some
time, is almost certain to lose his
front teeth unless great care is taxi
en- and the operator takes an alum
gum bath regularly.

Exploiting an American Woman.

Exploiting an American Woman.
Eugene Guard: The shrewd
minds of the English militant suf-
ragette leaders have attempted to
embroil the United States in their
fight, by exploiting and exaggerating
the illness and plight of Miss Zelie
Emercon, an American woman who
joined the English suffragette move
ment. Some of the eastern papers
of this country, imbued by a mawk
ish sentiment, have called upon Sec
retary Bryan to demand the release
of this woman from the English
prison.
Few people will sympathize with
Miss Emerson or her suffcagette ac-
tivities as an American. She was in
England, under the protection of
English laws, and when she saw fit
to deliberately break those laws she
became subject to the discipline of
the English courts.
1t has been claimed that forcible
feeding has shattered Miss Emerson's
nerves and that she is insane.
Not only is Miss Emerson insane,
but every woman who advocates and
lends her activities and energies to
the methods of the English militant
suffragette movement is afflicted
with a species of insanity. Some
sing Historically, others claim that to
die of starvation for the cause is a
martyrdom to be desired; others re-
fuse to eat; they burn buildings;
stone their opponents; smash win
dows; commit arson; disregard hui
man life; dynamite buildings; de-
strow the mail-and all in the name
of equal suffrage.
No person with a well-balanced
mind could either dictate or counte-
nance such activities in the name of
any normal cause. Those English
women who do these things, and
| countenance and finance them, are
suffering from form OF insanity.
The jails of the prisons are not the
place to send them-they belong in
the insane asylums.
