FIGHT PROVOKED
BY SLIT SKIRTS
NINE YOUNG WOMEN ENGAGE IN
LIVELY scRAP-Slx YOUNG
MEN PUT TO FLIGHT.

New York, July 2l.-Dresses were
torn, coiffures disheveled and hairpins
were sent flying in a fight of nine
young women at Madison avenue and
One Hundred and Eighth street at half
past o'clock Saturday evening. The
propriety Of wearing slashed skirts
was the cause of the contention.
Four of the participants, who de-
Tended their right to wear the gar
ments, then lead a crowd of hundred
persons a chase which ended in their
arrest after they had sought refuge
on the roof of a seven-story apart
ment house. Six young men, who
sought to enter the ARRAY as cham
pions of the 'anti-slash skirt" contin-
gent, found the battle too hot and fed,
The young women, who, it is said,
took part in the fight are Miss Mollie
Nelson, Miss Alice Hart, Miss Sophie
Cohen, Miss Sophie Rosengard and
Miss Ray Gross. They were taken to
the police station and are to appear
in court to answer to a charge of dis
orderly conduct.
A separation of eight inches in the
skirts worn by the Misses Hart and
Nelson was the main cause of the
trouble. They and the Misses Cohen
and Rosengard were walking through
East One Hundred and Eighth street
when they met five other girls and six
young men at Madison avenue. The
latter tainted the four for their ex-
IRENE way of dressing and the fight
began.

BREAKING UP A BAD HABIT.

The Shreveport Journal In writing of
court happenings In that city COM
mends the Judge of the District Court
for his action In setting a precedent
that will go far toward breaking up
the practice of appealing every friv-
olous little case that Is tried in one
of the lower courts. In four cases
appealed from the city court in one
day and heard in the higher court,
Judge John R. Land, upon conviction,
not only affirmed the sentence of the
original fine, but added to each the
penalty of farm sentence
I'm nearly all city or justice courts
offenders stave off the penalty i'm
posed by appealing their cases, often
without merit, but simply exercise this
constitutional right for the purpose Of
gaining time or in the hope that some
thing may transpire that will prevent
the original witnesses testifying In the
appeal cases.
These frivolous appeals take up the
time of the court which ought to be
devoted to more important matters,
and If more judges would follow the
example set by Judge Land there
would be fewer appeals from convic-
lions after fill and fair trial. Such
action would not only give the law
violator more wholesome respect for
the law but,it would save the county
and state a great deal of time and
expense by preventing the clogging
Of the dockets with cases of this
Observation-Disclosures.

MURPHY PLANS
WAR On SULzER
RUMORS OF ATTEMPT TO I'M
PEACH GOVERNOR CAUSES UN-
PREcEDENTED SITUATION.

Albany, N Y, July Pinot in
years has there been such a condition
of uncertainty in legislative and off,
cial circles in this state as exists at
present. The constantly widening
breach between Governor Sulzer and
the Democratic organization forces
led by Charles F. Murphy, Tammany
chieftan, with rumors of an impend-
ing attempt to impeach the executive,
has caused a situation unprecedented
in state politics.
When the legislature re-convenes
Tuesday, the leaders plan quick
cleanup of pending legislation, then,
after a recess of three or four weeks,
to return and pass over the governors
veto measures disapproved by him
which they believe should become
laws. The organization primary bill
is one of the measures it is planned
to pass. The leaders hope this plan
can be carried out as each house has
a Democratic majority of two thirds,
the proportion necessary to enact leg
islation without the governors sigma
ture. There is every indication also
of more than enough Republican &C.
cassions to overbalanced Democratic
defections.
When the Frawley investigating
committee adjourned after having
sought to establish that the governor
had attempted to bargain for votes for
his primary measure, in return for
executive favors, it was announced
that further testimony would be Of
fered when the committee re-convenes.
The committees program includes
hearings this week.
II practically has been decided to
continue the extraordinary session UNI
til December 81, to block the COVER
nor's present appointments and pre-
vent him removing heads of depart
ments friendly to Tammany and filling
the vacancies with recess appoint
ments of his own friends.

Fourth Socialist Lecture.

Attorney 1. S. McCrillis Of Iowa
spoke last Thursday evening, on the
subject of "What Socialists Want.
He said in part:
''That through the development of
the tools OF production the great mass
Of the workers have been disinherited,
they cannot use the means of carrying
on industry individually aud they can
not own them individually.
This fact has caused the workers
as class to become less efficient, they
have lost the incentive that comes from
the sense of proprietorship. The great
problem is to restore this incentive for
anything that reduces the efficiency OF
the workers strikes at the base of our
social stability. The product of labor
goes to the owner Of the means of pro-
duction. The workers produce all the
wealth, therefore they should have all
they produce but if they are to get it
they must own tho means of produce
ton. Fs
"Those means must today be- used
collectively, therefore if they sre
owned at all they must be owned just
like they are used, collectively. This
would make it possible for the workers
to employ themselves, to own their
own jobs, to say where they shall
work, under what conditions they
shall work and Who shall have what
they produce.
This is what socialists want. This
is the democratic management of In
dustrial democracy-Socialism. "t
