This is a delicate subject but one

is termed a "wide open towns issue to

but what it wanted. But let indignant
woman speak to the point:

But Chicago knows what it wants,
Chicago women are part and parcel of
Chicago, and those who regard Ella
Fagg Young and Jane Adams as
representative types of Chicago won

But as Mrs. Ella Flagg Young says
with her usual penetration, "you never

charged with doing in Chicago by Mrs
Young and Mrs. Stillman is no criterion
of what they would do elsewhere. AT,

The success of the city workmen with
the Bronson street sewer is going to
lead TO many demands in the council to
have other sewers built by the city. but
property owners who prefe~ to have the
work done by contractors can easily
block any plans made by the city ia
theirs in regard to their sewers. Before
The city can GO ahead with any of these
jobs it must fist obtain the unanimous
consent of the property owners and a
single property owner can block the
job. There can be no reasonable objec-
tion to having the city do the work,
however, so long as the costs are kept
below the bids made by the contractors.
The guarantees to the property owners
of good work and close attention to the
specifications are the same in either
case, as the same men represent the
property owners and the city.

For a $40 Minimum.

Assemblyman Vint has introduced a
bill which, should it become law,
will practically make the minimum
wage in Wisconsin in all lines of en-
ployment $40 per week and it is claimed
that a decided effort is to be made to
secure the passage of this bill. 1T is
claimed in favor of the measure that it
is somewhat in accord with the results
of the inquiry which has been made by
the Wisconsin industrial commission
into the subject of the minimum wage
and that while the order of the indust-
rial commission does not enforce a min
imum wage in any employment at so
high a figure as that placed in the
Vint bill, it is said the deductions from
the inquiry are that I'm Ter present liv-
ing conditions $40 week is the lowest
wage which any person in a industrial
employment can obtain an6 have what
is reasonably living wag
Direct Legislation Unlikely.
In vie of the industrial commission
order, which is practically ready for
PRONUNCIATION, it is not probable this
legislature will be inclined to pass any
direct legislation on the subject Of the
minimum wage for women and chill
dren, as the policy of this state h, s
been in the past to only adopt legisla-
ton on this subject which shall be Of
force after an inquiry by competent
bodies. That inquiry has been made,
and it is more than probable the leg
islators will feel that the industrial
commission will be in a better position
to pass on the question than the legis-
lature is to adopt direct legislation
thereon.
The same view is also likely to be
taken of the women S hours of labor
question and neither of the bills which
are pending which aim to forbid the
employment of women at night work
is likely to be passed Instead, this
whole question will probably be left in
the hands of the industrial commission.
