the question at issue should be con-
sidered by disinterested experts, some
of whom should be thoroughly versed
in the intricscies of the problems, and
all of whom, excepting those repre-
senting especially either the employers
or the employed, shall take into due
consideration the rights and needs of
the public This was good enough for
the locomotive engineers, who prob
ably are regarded more highly by tho
public than any other class of mechan-
ical workers in the country. And
since the engineers have accepted their
findings without a question, it ought to
be good enough also for the frcmen.
To the public, which is deeply con-
cerned in the controversy, this looks
like a fair proposition.

Paterson is located in New Jersey,

Paterson was founded in l19l at the
suggestion of Alexander Hamilton. for
the purpose of being a great cotton
manufacturing center. Later on II was
promoted TO silk and now produces
SIS, 600 900 worth OF silk in a good, free
spending year. II takes 12O0 people to
weave this silk, but they do not wear
II themselves They refrain with re-
markable firmness from doing so. After
the imported citizen has woven silk all
day in a Paterson factory he put on his
cotton coat and comes down town to
promote the cause of anarchy as pas
time Paterson has more anarchists per
millionaire than any other American
city. but they are not as fatal as the
Chicago breed.
Paretson also manufactures locomotives
and rebuilds itself whenever necessary.
II was burned in 1901 and flooded in 1895,
but has recovered from both affiictons.
II wanders over the New Jersey hills and
along the banks Of the implacable Pas

directions by automobiles with good

To the Editor: The opposition of II. II.

ing in The Her.ld. is exactly the kind of
opposition that We want. II Is so weak in
its argument and so anaemic in its logic
that it is rather more ludicrous than con-
vinCing.
Il. II. r." lin her resting0. having all
that she wants. home. protection. children
-can't see why the women who are forced
to so out into the world to support them
selves or their dependent relatives,
should want conditions made either more
favorable or more endurabIe. 1t may be
safely said that two-thirds OF those
women work because 1t is necessary
rather than because they prefer il. There
are so many of them that have never
had any homes other than the ones thev
themselves provided. and that would
have none at all II they gave up theilr
JOBS.
If Il. II. r. lived in Florida. lam sure
that she would be utterly unable TO un-
derstand why A woman living in Yer
mont should want a set of furs for win
ter. II she had recently dined at a home
table provided by a good husband, she
would also be unable to understand
why a woman with an empty larder and
many children should want laws that

stay in her home on bad days. she does
not understand why the working girl who
goes into badly ept streets or hangs n

annoyances.
II women could only realize that the
ballot not only means something about
tariff or something about free silver,
but that it also means a great deal about
the little things that make up our daily
lives, they would know that it is not TO

is to improve our living conditions that

says: Il have all I want. everything /

The women who work and the women
who need are as womanly, as willing to
be mothers, and as willing to be home
makers as any women living. God made
them with maternal instincts and casting

SIOKOWSKI-YSAYE CONCERT.
NioIinist to Appear with PhiIa-
dcIphia Orchestra To-day.

The Stokowski-Yssye concert at the
New National Theater this afternoon. at
40. has attracted a great deal Of in
terest since the musical and social leaders
realize that the combination is rather
a unique one, in that not only is Ysaye
heard with one of the greatest orches-
tras of the country, the Philadelphia
Orchestra, but II will be heard with the
new leader Of the Philadelphia Orches-
ira. who has made a greater reputation
this year than ever before as an inter-
prefer of the highest rank.
The Philadelphia Orchestra is now IN
its thirteenth year, and is supported by
PhiladeIphisns in the most liberal man
ner, so that the personnel OF the orches-
ira is unexcelled. Ysaye. with the gen.
ius that he has. will interpret one of the
oldest concertos for violin and orchestra
ever written. The composer was Viotti
who wrote this famous composition when
he was in his teens. and II first came to
light IN 1867. With equally artistic in
sight Ysaye contrasts this very old num-
her With the most sensuous Of modern
violin concertos, that Of Saint-Saens. in
B minor. These are some of the features
of the programme that make this coming
concert so attractive.

To the Editor: After reading 81. IL.
RS letter OF the l1th instant, opposing
suffrage for women, I am constrained to
reply that / rather hope the letter
eminated from the editorial rooms
Of The Herald. / would rather think
that a mere mana very young man
with q deplorable small acquaintance
among women, wrote it than that there
is even one woman so narrow of mind
and soul in this age of charming pro-
gressivc women
I II. X. needn't be so worried. There
are hundreds of good, honest women to
love and cherish" and a great many
manly men" doing it, too. And, thank
goodness, those same men are mighty
proud of the type OF womanhood with
brain and heart enough TO manage I
home that is at once healthy. happy, and
hispitable. and still have tie left to be
interested in the big questions that are
so vital to the home life-the questions
that have really become so big and vital
through mems neglect of them.

to override them are the men of big
heart and mind who have come to
thoroughly appreciate the delightfully."-

The Safety Cd, of Travel.

If it is possible to gain an unbiased
view of the problem of safety, or the
lack of safety. in American railroad
travel, the block signal and train con-
troll board, appointed under a resolu-
tion which Congress adopted after the
disastrous Terra Gotta wreck in 1900,
should now be possessed of it. This
board, headed by Prof NJ. f. Cooley,
OF the University of Michigan, a dis
tinguished engineer, has spent five
years in investigating the subjects in
dicated by its official name. Likewise
it has considered broken rails and the
variable human element in railway oper-
alton. The boards final report is well
worth perusal. 1t Is calm and mod
crate, yet definite in tone.
The board finds that the reasons why
greater safeguards arc not provided is
the expense their installation would in
volve The report says:
The railroad officer responsible for
results does his utmost to meet the
demands made upon him. His first
responsibility, as he sees it, is to pro-
vide earnings He knows if he fails
in this somebody will be found to re-
place him. 1t is but natural that the
railroad official has. in the struggle for
existence. given chief attention to the
conditions directly affecting the fnan-
cial end Of the business. and less at
tcntion to the conditions affecting
safety. Safety he very much desires,
but earnings he must have Human life
has a value, the same as freight. and if
II has been lost in transit il is paid
for and becomes one OF the operating
expenses.
But all the blame i not placed by
the board upon the railroads. The rc-
port continues:
The public should squarcly face its
share in the responsibility for safety.
The comfort and luxury which it now
demands are costly. The high speed
train which was a special event twenty
years ago IS now feature OF the reg
ular schedules. The American people
cannot wait: they crowd the steps 10
get on train and the aiSles to get off.
Comforts and luxuries are demanded
without increase of expense TO the
traveller; not only that, but with a very
general decrease in prices.
The board rcnews its recommends
ton for Federal legislation compelling
interstate railroads to install the block
system Congress thus far has failed
to do this, yet it probably is the most
useful step that could be taken. The
public is periodically Mortified by fatal
train wrecks and various sporadic
movements are undertaken for the pro-
motion OF safety Yet We doubt if one
Senator or Representative in fifty has
ever been subjected TO even moderate
pressure in favor of this recommends
ton.

Like snne grand mountain rising from sfar.
Or like the radiance Of the polar star.
Hen shine a-do~n the sges through each scene
With all the glory Of the NazarIne,
man Of sorrux, faith, and lofty love.
Inspired By truth frum heavenly powers above.
Filled With the beauty Of 4 magic mind
That struggled for the freedom Of mankind.
His honesty WAS pure as Wonder sun:
With all the patriotism Of Washington.
And heart and soul that felt for one and all
Who Iinsrr on this bleak terrestrial hail.
And in his mind malice found a place
For any mortal Of the human race;
With manhood lofty as a mountain ranse,
And charity without scar or chanse.
A martyr for the cause of truth and night,
He fell the hero Of the freedom fight;
And By the blow Of asSassin's hand
His spirit SCARED into the Better Land.
And frum the rsmpsrts Of Gods sphere
He looks upon the people far and near.
And hesses all who kneel at Freedoms shrine,
ImTioTtnS for the pure and superdne.
This man was reared among the pioneers
OF western woods undaunted by false fears,
Where all were free nature in her sway.
With dashing streams resOunding night and day,
And birds ct beauty fitting on the wing
Among the wild flowers Of the early sr-inS.
Where God recognized in cT1g and trec.
EtsTnAl emblem Of the brave and free.
The iron jaws OF poverty and pain
Held fast his hoyhood years in Sun and rain:
While rustic labor. with its hungry face,
Pursued him constantly from place TO place;
Yet upward in his ploddins course Of fame
He saw beyond the heights Of the flashing fame,
And never faltered in his Gcdlike creed
To coin his words Of freedom for the desd.
Lincoln was called to save the nations life
And soothe the SoErow Of each morning strife
Where slavery and freedom baftled strong
To elevate the night crush the Vrnrg
When raging brothers the firing line
Poured out their blood fcamins sparkling wine
Startling the world with their glorious deeds
To show At last that Liberty slccrcdS.
His HruclAmstion that the telling slave
should be forever free land and wave
Was heard scruSs the nations far and wide
And gave all human hearts a lasting pride
That cruelty and wrong were crushed At last.
And that the slavery lash and chains had rzssed
Into the dungeons Of defeat and crime
Buried forever in the tomb Of tims
Repeated by the men who would he fres
Who live for lofty aims and luve-lt play
Among the brautiflJ. the bright and gay.
