unjust Come Down." New England Mem
Der of the Upper Body
Declares.

Washington, May insurgency over
the question of pie-not political, but
actual--is stirring the Senate. While
the Senate r, staurant was "reorganized'
along Democratic economy lines and the
prices of many of the viands materially
reduced, the price Of pie per cut remains
at ten cents.
Its the most important article of
food we have" declared New England
senator, "and one that inspires good leg
islation. It's an outrage. The price
must come down"
The management of the restaurant
recently was changed. The feeding prob
lem in the Senate for years has been
bothersome, but never before has dis
ruption been threatened over the prob
lem of pie prices.

DOLLAR AGRICULTURE.
Government Will Try to Show That
Farming Pays.

Washington, May 5.--The discarded
dollar diplomacy Of the state depart
ment has been seized upon by the de-
partment of agriculture, which will try
to apply at home what the Wilson ad-
ministration declared should not be used
in American foreign dealings. Ii is the
policy which the department has decided
to use in its newly planned rural or
ganization service"
"We must appeal to the material side
of the farmer and make him see that
there is as much or more money for
him in farming as in anything else he
might undertake" said Assistant Secre-
tary Galloway Saturday, who is active
ly at work shaping plans for the new
bureau.
Understanding theories about the
beauty of country life and appeals to
the reason will fall" said he, 'but the
minute YOU can make the man in the
country see that he is as well off finan-
cially as he would be elsewhere, your
farm problem is virtually solved"

which begins with spool OF cotton, and

On motor trip from her summer
home in DuXbury in the sweet OF last

Murray had not had vacation for ten
years. Year in, year out he had slit silk
and matched goods and sold spool on
spool of cotton. But last Wednesday
he went to the head of the firm and
asked for vacation. After cold water
had been thrown on the boss, James ex-
planned that the vacation was for the
purpose of marrying Miss Seamans.

He got the vacation and Saturday he
got the bride, the marriage being held at

Congressman Payne's Sub

THE BAY STATE
REPUBLICANS
Stirred Over Gardeners AM
bition to Head Congress
sional Committee

Washington, ID. c., May 5.-War was
declared Saturday among the eight Re-
publican members Of the House from
Massachusetts. The Gardner. double
barreled boom for congressional commit
tee honors brought matters unexpectedly
to an impasse. "Uncle Billy" Greene,
veteran Republican from Fall River,
without giving notice that diplomatic re-
lations would be suspended, began firing
with l3.ineh guns At first this scared
the Gardner men to cover, but IT was
later discovered that Uncle Billy's"
support will probably be confined to
Representatives Wilder and Roberts and
may not be as numerous as that. The
statement hung in the House press gal
lerv and otherwise showed into general
publicity is over Representative Greene's
signature. After expressing regret that
he must oppose a Republican colleague,
MIR, Greene declares that "the obligation
! owe to the Republican party for the
many long continued honors they have
conferred upon me, compels me to state
frankly and unequivocally that | do
not regard him, Gardner, as a proper
person to occupy that responsible posi-
ton, member of the congressional com
mittee from Massachusetts, and more
especially am ! opposed to his selection
because of the fact that he couples with
it the inordinate ambition to become
chairman of the Republican congression-
al committee Mr.. Greene adds that
he is unwilling to accept his colleague
"as a representative of the new Repub-
icanism, until he purges himself of the
dictatorial and arbitrary spirit which he
denounees so ilippantly as existing
among his associates
The significance of the Greene state
ment probably is that it will encourage
the old Republican guard of the House
to rally more effectively against the cleo

Our worthy mayor has signified his
willingness to a delegation of union men,
that he will embody in the call for the
next city meeting the question OF an
eight hour day for employees in the street
and water departments. incidentally, in
the interview, the delegation were given
a glimpse of the broad minded humani-
tartan ideas of his honor on matters
pertaining to the welfare of the citi-
zens and our city. That he has the sin
cere welfare of both at heart there cam
not be the least doubt, and it was I'M
doubtedly an eye-opener to the delega-
ton to find in the mayor such an open
minded citizen. We wish him and his
administration every success.
The Investigations into the wages of
the working women as they relate to
their morals is having good effect,
even though they may not result in the
enactment of minimum wage laws, which
would be of very doubtful benefit. The
facts brought out in many instances
have impressed employers that wages
paid to female employees were too low
to insure a decent livelihood, and wage
advances have been voluntarily made.
One of the other results of these inves
legations has been to draw public at
tention to the unjust wages paid to
women workers in our shops and factor
les, and in this something is being gained
in the interest Of working women. Their
condition has been made public, which
is very important step in the way OF
reformation. This knowledge will aid
in giving working women public support
in their aggressive movement for better
conditions through organization, which
will afford the strongest means by which
they can secure justice for industrial
rights.

you see the farmers patronizing
the home merchants, the laborers
spending the money they earn
with their tradesmen, and all ami
mated bya spirit that they will
not purchase articles abroad if

spirit of reciprocity results every
