WHO PAYS THE PoRTERs7

The United States commission on
Industrial relations, is digging up
some information on the wages OF
Pullman porters that is worthy OF no.
tice, not that it is surprising, but be-
cause it is specific and leaves room
for but one answer to the question:
':Who pays the porters?' says the
Sioux City Journal
1t seems that the obliging individu-
al with the ebony complexion and the
pleasant smile who takes your suit
case at the steps OF the palace on
wheels, provides you with one of
those impossible PAPER cups when
you get thirsty, makes up your berth
upon request. shines your shoes with
out solicitation, says Good morn
ing." with an expectant infection in
his voice, plies the whisk broom with
an aggressiveness that might be
worthy of better cause as your train
pulls into the terminus and thanks
you profusely for the tip you hand
him just before he puts you off the
train and builds a breastworks of
travelling bags and satchels around
you-it seems that he gets from the
Pullman company the muniflcent
monthly wage Of $3.50, less about SO
that comes out of that for his uni
form.
Now. of course. not even the Pull
man company expects anyone to live
on $3.50 a month-anyone, at any
rate, who has q family to support,
and many Of the Pullman porters are
heads of families. The Pullman COM
pany knows as well as the rest of the
world that $3.50 will not much more
than pay for a porter's meals. But
why should the Pullman company
worry, as long as the travelling pub
lie has more or less cheerfully as
sumed the burden of making UP the.
considerable deficit between what the
Pullman company pays it's porters
and what constitutes a decent wage?
A porter on run between Savanna,
Ill, and st. Louis testified that he
made about $75 a month in tips, and
it wasn't any too good run at that.
Who pays the porters? Why. folks
who travel on Pullman cars. The
Pullman company every month sim
ply hands each Of them a tip Of $3.50
Frank P. Walsh, as chairman OF
the commission on Industrial rela-
lions, has taken up this investigation
with a vigor and def1niteness that
seem to forecast results Conditions
surely present a fair field for reform.
The Pullman company has got ricn
off a flagrantly unbusiness-1ike sys-
tenn which has belittled the negro
and mulcted the travelling public. II
receipts from berth sales are not
sufficient to enable the Pullman COM
pany to pay it's employees living wages
it should make showing to that ef-
feet. and secure authorization for
raise in rates. The practice OF COM
polling the traveller to pay not only
for his berth, but for having it made
up, is wrong, and the commission on
industrial relations will make con.
siderable hit if it shall find some
means to put stop to 1t.

three greatest evils Of today are in
temperance, greed and war This is

the one evil. For intemperance is IA
result of greed-the greed to get

THE HEART OF A WOMAN. 3
Laughter and sunshine and story.
Beauty and sweetness and trust;
Courage and grandeur and glory,
Shadows and darkness and dust
All things OF light and of loving
The heart of woman contains,
Grand virtues, great sweetness and
sorrows,
Peace, happiness, passion and pains.
One moment it blooms like garden
With every sweet blossom life
A vale of the peace of the ages,
A pathway through violet and
And then DER the darkness and doubt
The wings OF a storm sweep the
skies
And the garden is tossed in the tenn
pest,
and the vale in a dark ruin lies
One moment SO pititui tender
And then ali the rage and the haze
Fill its beating with infinite shadows
As it raves against infinite fate.
One moment so true and so loving,
So clingfng and gentle and sweet.
All the song of life's sweeping a
gamut
Every blossom of life in its beat
And yet, with all changing and travail
All sorrow and aching and cross,
All sunshine today, then tomorrow
Cast down in the grief of some loss;
And yet with its battle and thunder,
It's April Of showers and of shine,
God give me the heart of woman
And take all the rest that is mine.
