FAILING OFF IN STEEL

Falling off in steel output over the
last week was more severe than re-
ported at any time since the down
ward movement began. Several
months ago finishing mills were oper-
ating more than 80 per cent of ca
pacity compared with SIS per cent at
the present time. There are fndica-
tions of still further decline, accord
ing to a special dispatch to J. G.

PRESIDENT WILSON'S
NEW DEPARTURE.

According TO his announcement,
President Wilson read short mes
sage to the House of Representatives
early this afternoon, thus resurrcctlng
custom which had been consigned to
oblivion since the days Of John Ad-
ans. George Washington had previ-
ously set the example.
The procedure Of the President is
the subject Of considerable comment.
Mr.. Wilson's friends can see no serious
principle involved, while others, also
friends of the executive, say such an
example savors of royalty and is sug-
ges,ive of reading speech from the
throne"
In one Of the histories Of the late
Southern Confederacy the writer says
the constitution which was adopted
was substantially that of the federal
government, which time had SHOWN to
be imperfect, in some details; hence
tlC SpuIlieiI t''o'iS4fsN
by experience, introduced what were
improvements. Among the latter was
clause empowering cabinet ministers
TO appear upon the floor of the lower
house and make their suggestions
known.
Mr.. Wilson may be impressed with
the action of the representatives or
the "Lost Cause and he has lakeE
the iniative and the time may come
when scenes akin to those IN lie Br:t-
ish House of Commons will be enact
ed in this country, when the President
and members Of his cabinet will be
interrogatcd upon the floor Of Con-
gress.
Most friends Of Mr.. Wilson will pre-
fer to withhold judgment upon MS new
departure. The people may 1row!
upon the introduction Of royal customs
in the United States.

CAMPAIGN AGAINST "INDIGNi-
TIES"
Women Would ExpunGe Bile and
Marriage Service.

A campaign againsl 'indignities'
to women contained in the Angel
can marriage service is the latest
effort of the Suffragists' Spiritual
Miltancy League.
Fifteen such moral hun:;iiatiorIs
are mentioned in the manifesto
which the league is sending nc... on
ly to every Clergyman of the church
Of England, bu? to all persons who. c
Forthcoming marriage is announced
in the daily papers. The first two
indignities alleged is the words "obey
and serve him." which the bride is
required to repeat and ques Gin put
by the minister: "Who give,h this
woman to be married to this man."
One of the remedies sugge ed for
both is the omission Of the words; the
alternative is thai. the bridegroom be
required to promise to "obcy and
serve her," and that the minister
also ask: "Who giveth this man to be
married to this woman?"
Three indignities surround the
marriage ring and the brideg"oom's
accompanying declaration. "Ths
words: "With all my worldly goods
I thee endow,' have never been true"
says the manifesto. The gorernmenI'
is urged to drop the ring ceremony
and it's formula or to enforce an e&-
change Of rings and the use Of for
mula containing "no economic false
hood or moral ofrense."
Humiliation Nc. Z Is the :ninist-
er's pronouncement that ti:ay shall
be man and wife together. The i'm
plication complained Of is that "the
woman is wholly wife, and he man
not wholly a husband"
Protesting that the first cf The
Psalms addresses itself wholly to the
bridegroom, the league demands It's
omission OF that it is supplemented
by another addressed TO the wife.
The petition that the man shall love
his wife as Christ the Church IS "an
appalling humiliation of woman and
a pernicious exaltation Of man.
The thirteenth indignity IS quot
ing st. Paui's words: "Wivcs. submit
yourselves unto your husband as unto
the Lord; for the husband is he head
of the wife, even as Christ !: the
head CT The church" The league
strenuously opposes the idea Of the
husband being the head Of thu wife,
and suggests: Husbands, also sub
nit yourselves unto your wives as a
supplement to this second e%horta-
ton 20 the wife.

their appeal before the lawmakers OF
the country. Should their petition be
denied, there need be no fear of the
DETACHMENT Of property nor attacks
upon cabient ministers. Railway sta
tons will remain intact, passenger
trains will move in safety, and no fires
will be kindled in summer homes Of
Presidents or their governmental fam
lily.
The movements of the women have
been peaceable throughout, and no
vitriolic utterances have emanatei
from them.
While the opinion of the world is
divided concerning their demands, the
fact remains that they have been gull
ty CT no overt acts in our country,
and it is a satisfaction to both their
political friends and foes to know tha-

TIE PATH TO POOR HOUSE

The path 10 Poor House Lane is
crowded with the passing years.
It knows the tread Of weary feet,
it know the falling tears,
1t understands the hopes forgotten
in life's TRAGEDIES,
1t knows the tale Of broken-hearts
and sodden miseries.
The path is broad and all may follow
if they want TO go,
It's travelled in the summers sun and
in the winttr's snow,
Il is the highway That the spend
thrift wants a. last to tread,
When ..he wanderlust has LETT hin.
and he seeks beggar's bed.
II is the path that makes appeal t.
all whose lives were spent
In prodigal extravaganza which nov
they all repent.
1t is the travelled highway Of OLD
age, when grief and pain
And wretched waste has Brought
them on tie way to Poor House
