Why Spain Laus Behind.

In thousands of villages and small towns in tho interior oi Spain no one knows how to read or write. There are in Spain 30,Go0 rural villages with. out schools of any kind and many thousands which can be reached only by bridle path, there being no high roads or railway communication oi any kind. Attendance at board schools Is voluntary, not obligatory. Seventy. six per cent. 0? the children in Spain are illiterate, and this is especially noticeable in the capital.

mated at $3.50, 100000. This represents
entirely the initial cost OF the machines

peuses. The cost of operating the same
number of machines in this country IS es-

About 1 900, OOO. 900 gallons OF "gas'

low figure of SIG each. Then there are
the accessories. Goggles, gloves, caps,

and guide the pfoH, What is to be-
come of that hstion where poverty
breaks the crowns Of the queens o.
the home; despair hurls a mothers
love from its throne and hunger drives
innocent children from the schoolroom
to the hoe?
The census bureau shows that 1885,
900 of these women are forty-five
years of age and over. There Is no
more pitiful sight in civilization than
these sanity mothers of Israel stopped
with age, drudging In the field from
sun until sun and at night drenching
their dingy pillows with the tears OF
despair as their aching hearts take
It all to God in prayer. Civilization
strikes them a blow when 1t should
give them a crown, and their only
friend Is he who broke bread with
beggars and said: Come unto me all
ye that are weary and heavy laden and
l will give you rest"
Oh, America! The land OF the free
and the home of the brave. the
worlds custodian Of chivalry, the
champion Of human rights and the de-
fender Of the oppressed-shall we per-
NIT our maidens fair to be torn from
the hearthstone by the ruthless hand
Of destiny and chained to the ploW!
Shall we permit our faithful wives,
whom we co3enanted with God to cher
ish and protect, to be hurled from the
home to the harvest field, and our
mothers dear to be driven from the old
arm chair to the cotton patch?
In rescuing our citizens from the
forces Of civilization, can we not apply
to our fair Dixieland the rule OF the
sea-"women and children flrst?
There must be readjustment OF
the wage scale of industry 80 that the
women can be taken from the field or
given a reasonable wage for her serv.
ices. Perhaps the issue has never been
fairly raised, but the Farmers Union,
with membership Of ten million, puts
its organized forces sQuarely behind
the Issue and we now enter upon the
docket of civilization the case Of THE
Woman in the Field" and demand an
immediate trial.

RAILROADS APPEAL
TO PRESIDENT
The Common Carriers Ask for Re.
lief President Wilson Directs
Attention Of Public to
ThaIr Mazda

Attention Of Public to
Their Needs.
The committee Of railroad execu-
tives, headed by Mr.. Frank Trumbull,
representing thirty.five of the leading
railroad systems Of the nation, recent.
ly presented to President Wilson a
memorandum briefly reviewing the diff
ficulties now confronting the railroads
Of the country and asking for the CO
operation Of the governmental authori-
ties and the public in supporting rail.
road credits and recognizing an emer.
gency which requires that the rail-
roads be given additional revenues.
The memorandum recites that the
European war has resulted in general
depression Of business on the Amert-
can continent and in the dislocat1on
of credits at home and abroad. With
revenues decreasing and interest rates
increasing the transportation systems
of the country face a most serious
crisis and the memorandum is a
strong presentation Of the candle
burning at both ends and the perils
that must ultimately attend such q
confiagration when the flames meet
is apparent to all. In their general
discussion the railroad representa-
tives say in part: by reason Of leg
islation and regulation by the federal
government and the forty-eight states
acting independently Of each other, as
we'll as through the action Of strong
public opinion, railroad expenses In
recent years have vastly increased.
No criticism is here made Of the gen.
eral theory OF governmental regula-
ton, but on the other hand, no In
genuity can relieve the carriers Of eI.
penses created thereby"
President Wilson, In transmitting
the memorandum Of the railroad
presidents to the public, character
ICES 1t as "a lucid statement Of plain
truth" The president recognizing
the emergency as extraordinary, con-
tinuing, said in part:
you ask me to call the attention
Of the country to the imperative need
that railway credits be sustained and
the railroads helped in every possible
way, whether by private cooperative
effort or by the action, wherever
feasible Of governmental agencies, and
! am glad to do so because l think
the need very real"
The conference was certainly
fortunate one for the nation and the
president is to be congratulated for
opening the gate to new world Of
effort in which everyone may cooper
ate.
There are many important prob
lens in our complex civilization that
will yield to cooperation which will
not lend themselves to arbitrary rul-
ings Of commissions and financing
railroads is one Of them. The man
with the money is factor that can
not be eliminated from any business
transaction and the public Is an inter
ested party that should always be con-
suited and happily the president has
invited all to participate in the solu-
ton of our railroad problems.

A long time ago some one said that an
Englishman eats peach as if he were
performing a religious ceremony. No
wonderl In the London market sale
of dozen peaches ranks as wholesale
transaction. And the price! The Lon
don Telegraph recently printed an article
on "Cheap Fruit" in which the state
ment occurs that "small samples" were
worth two TO three shillings dozen, but
that the best fruit could be bought at
twelve shillings dozen. Think OF pay
ing quarter for a single peachl But
there were some shops that cut the
price and that would sell you peach
for threepence-siX cents.
