A NEW WEAPON.

When the socialists of Belgium an
ncunccd their intention of going on
strike for general manhood suffrage,
they asserted there would be no Vio-
lence, and a skeptical world shrugged
its shoulders. For eight day, now, the
tie-up of industrial affairs in the
country has been in progress, and,
with a few exceptions, due to riotOus
student sylnpathiers, the strike has
been entirely peaceful. That the
strike has had it's effect on general
conditions in the country cannot be
denied; the losses due to inactive ma
chimes and idle workers have run into
the millions. Therefore, it is well for
t%urbance, for by remaining quiet
they prevented the use of the military
In their total abstinence from work
the Workmen have demonstrated their

gether as a unit for a common and a
just cause. We now learn that today
a motion will be made in the national
legislature hat the parliamentary
committee appointed some time ago
report a revised system of parliament
tary and ommun suffrage, If this
motion is sustained, and present indi-
cations are that it will be, the end OF
Belgian WOrkmcn will have been the
first to prove The efficacy Of the
strike as a political weapon, when
used without the accompaniment of
violence.

BROWER SAYS NO

Editor, Missoulian:-In The Daily
Muscular of April IS n 10 appeared
editorials commenting on a bill passed
by the last Legislative assembly au-
thorizing the issuing of free trans
portation by railroad companies to leg
islative, judicial and executive officers.
1t was stated in these editorials that
Henley of Missoula was the only men,
Der of the house who voted against
the enactment of this law and that
he and Drinkard of Fergus were the
only members of the house who had
not mad application for a pass.
In order that a wrong impression
may not be obtained by the reading of
these editorials l wish to state that
/ do not believe in giving to one man
a special privilege which is denied an
other, nor do I believe that one mar
should ride free and the other be
compelled to pay his fare. l do not
believe that legislative, judicial or ex-
ecutive officers should accept from
individuals or corporations favors
which might place them under obli-
cation to that individual or corpora
ton.
Acting upon these principles I voted
against the installation of a telephone
in the house n the free use thereof
by members. l also voted against the
giving of free railroad transportation
to officials.
| have not made application to the
secretary of state or to any railroad
official or for free trans
portation as provided by the law passed
at the last session, nor do l intend to
do so, and in as much as l was in
strumental in putting through the
house a full-creW law / do not antici-
pate that any will be offered, and I as
sure you that it would not be ac-
copied. l remain
Respectfully yours,

Modern Women
xXVIII-WOMEN IN MUSIC AND
DRAMA.
d. Enadan AaeLin
BY Frederic J.. tiaskin.

The fact that the men of the coun-
try are so much occupied with com
mercial matters has left the Develop
ment Of the finer arts largely in the
hands of the women who are working
to secure finer national standards in
every line. Toe much credit cannot be
given to the musical organizations for
their efforts in this direction. In
many towns it is the WOmen who have
been instrumental in having music
added to the course of study in the
public schools. A generation g the
musical work in the schools was con-
fined to a meager instruction in vocal
music in the schools of the larger
towns. Pianos were almost unheari
of until the women took up the cause,
and now in many parts of the country
Il piano is as generally recognized as d
| piece of school furniture as the black
board. With this instrument the pro-
vision for adequate muSical instruc-
ton was comparatively easy. An eff
fort is being made to stimulate a
knowledge of classic music as we'll as
a taste in the selection of all musical
compositions. While the modern rag
time has had its Objectionable fea-
lures, the Women are hoping from this
to evolve a national music which will
be in keeping with the versatility of
tastes of the nation. The Federation
of Musical clubs has laid out system
attic courses of study calculated not
only to be of c%ducative value but also
to encourage the development of origi-
nal composition among the musical
students Of the coming generation.
The preponderance of women music
teachers over that of men is even
greater than of school teachers, and
there are l. girls receiving musical
education for each boy. This naturally
places American music largely in the
hands of women, and they are work.
ing to secure higher standards for
every class Of American music. The
Federation of Musical clubs has
in every state. 1t is en-
d~eaVoring to secure laws providing for
uniform standards of qualification for
music teachers. This can only be ac-
compllshed by examination and the
granting of certificates similar to
those awarded to public school teach
crS. The fact that for generations it
has not been possible for persons to
give musical instruction in European
countries without a proper standard of
qualifications, while in this country
anyone wishing to DO so may hang out
a music teachers sign without any
preparation, is held to be largely re-
sponsible for some of the defects in
American musical taste,
In Ohio the Women's musical or
CARNATIONS have united in ~formulating
a graded schedule of musical work
suitable for school children from the
fourth to the eighth grades which has
been accepted by the Ohio Music
Teachers association as suggestive of
the standard of music values to be de-
sired in the schools. With this as a
foundation the grades of music

Mrs. Fiske is another actress who

well known all over the United States

stage for our years, reappearing in
Hester CreWe,' a play written by her
husband. Since then she has been
playing almost continuously, having
an exceptionally large repertoire. She
is a successful stage manager, as we'll
as actress, and directed most of her
productions given at the Manhattan
theater While her husband was it's
manager.
Mrs. Fiske is also the author of a
NUMBER OF plays, The Light From st.

SIT PAUL. Feb. 20.-Medical SUI
pervision of schools, the state paying
one-half, the cost, is proposed in. a.
bill introduced in the legislature by
Senator Stebbins Of Olmsted. county.
The proposal is, one which is calcu-
lated to have. great influence upon
the health: Of school children in Min
nesota.
According TO- the provisions of the
bill, counties, municipalities or school
districts may employ . physician who
Will combine the office Of, medical
school supervisor and. health officer:
Such officers shall have power to re-
quire proper seating, lighting and VEN
tilation in school rooms. They may
require. proper conditions, from a.
sanitary standpoint, of all school
buildings and school grounds, take
steps to prevent the spread of in
fectious diseases among students and
inquire into the general physical con-
dition Of the children. In addition to
this, they as health officers, will have
authority to. supervise slaughter
houses, milk supplies and abate nuis-
ances.
The condition of each child in
school will receive attention. Good
health for a pupil is as essential as
good books or good teachers, and even
more SO. If each school in Minne-
sofa were under. proper medical STU
pervision, there would be fewer cases
of sickness and more rapid progress
made by many pupils in their studies
The state board of health employed

Mr.. Houk. I'm, former years concrete

ployed in general construction, anti

this winter, however,: constructio,

has been uninterrupted.

confronted with fewer: tabor problems,
the charitable organization have. en-
couhtered less privation and the gen.
eral condition of the working people
has been made better: The unskil]ed
laborer has been among those particu-
larly benefit ted. Wages during the
winter season have rarely been better
than they are. now"
Mr.. Houk makes special reference
to conditions in. the Twin Cities. The

as, building operations were largely
completed last fall, a great number Of
