plain clothes man on the fourth floor
of the Shoreham hotel rubbed his eyes

Wilson's breakfast consisted of hall

A Narrow Escape.

While running off the first
side of the paper Monday night
Joe Fyffe, one of the Courier's
compositors, got his left arm
caught between the power
shaft and the cylinder of
the news press and had a narrow
escape from a serious injury.
Fortunately the press was just
starting and had not attained
full speed at the time and was
stopped in time to prevent his
arm being broken or his shoulder
dislocated. AS it was his arm
was severely bruised and it will
be several days before he is able
to return to the case.

Washington, March 4.--Senatorial
investigation of the failure Of Wash

women taking part in Mondays sui.
frage parade was ordered today when
the upper house passed resolution
introduced By Senator Jones of Wash
ington, calling for an explanation
from the city authorities.
The ordeal through which the
marchers passed, however, gained for
them many new sympathizers and
many supporters in places where they
had not looked for converts.
Both official and civic Washington
is ablaze with indignation at the treat
ment of the women, which virtually
scandalized the national capital. Had
1t not been for the opportune appear
ance Of the cavalry in the height oI

heavy toll Of life might have been ex
acted. AS II is there are more thar
100 persons In the hospitals who are
suffering from broken limbs and othel
injuries sustained in the crush OF the
uncontrolled mobs.
Miss Inez Milholland, herald Of the
procession, distinguished herself b!
aiding in riding down mob that dis
rupted the parade. Another woman

Citizens Third Letter.

Mr.. Editor:
Presuming to again trespass
upon your space and good nature
l will give you my idea Of what
we should have in the way Of a
county attorney. In the first
place let me say that the people
do not generally realize the i'm
portance and responsibilities of
this office. 1t is an office that is
fraught with more responsibility
and requires a higher order OF
intelligence and integrity and in
dustry than even that of county
judge. In addition to the above
qualifications the man elected
should bring to the Office a high
order of legal training and supe-
rior business acumen.
Time was that every justice of
the peace and outgoing clerk ap-
piled for and received license to
practice law. This has given us
a horde of lawyers(?) who could
not tell, to save their lives, the
difference between a writ of ad
quad damnum and the declara-
ton of independence, nor distin-
guish between the Code of Prac-
tice and Hicks almanac; yet by
our law these men are qualified"
to hold the office of county attor-
ney. True, the statue says that
a man must be in actiVe practice
for two years before his election,
but who is there to say that an
occasional case before a justice
is not active practice? We need
law to require candidates for
county attorney to be re-examin-
ed. And the legal profession
needs wedding out.
To be an efficient, capable coun-
ty attorney the man should be a
good lawyer (emphasize the
''good'), and in addition should
possess first-class business abili-
ty. His character should be
stainless, and he needs the cour-
age of a lion and the firmness of
Ia mountain. He should be a
Socrates, a Demosthenes and a
Cicero. For in the last analysis
he is the advisor and counsellor
for the entire county administra,
ton, and he should be profound
enough to give the right kind o.
advice.
In brief, he should be first
man then a lawyer.
How do our candidates meas
ure up to these. specifications
1t is up to the voters to scruti
nize the candidates, for if tn
next county attorney is a misfi
the voters alone will be to blame
