MR. HUGHES AND THE WOMEN
TEACHERS

Governor Hughes veto of the equal
pay for equal work" bill is far more
selfrevealing in the reasons given for
the veto than his personal" endorse.
ment of I, national suffrage amend.
ment. 1t will no doubt be held by the
women voters of the country that the
right to make living is more sa.
cred right than that of winning the
suffrage by national rather than state
initiative.
The story is an interesting one The
teachers Of New York City women
anu men both had secured, after a
long, hard fight, the adoption by the
Legislature of an amendment to the
charter Of New York City, providing
that women teachers should be paid
the same salaries that the men re-
oeiyed, for the same kind and quality
OF work done.
When the bill reached Governor
Hughes, he returned 1t without his
approval. He wrote:
The motive of the present bill is to
compel equal pay for men and wo-
men holding the same position under
any particular schedule of salaries.
1t clearly appears to be open to SER
iOus objections. 1t Is proposed by
Legislative enactment to establish the
proposition that for the work of a
given position women shall receive
equal pay with men. 1t is for the
principle that the supporters of the
bill contend, and not for increased
pay. | cannot approve this BILL
Charles Il. Hughes.
Governor Hughes argument that
the bill ought to apply TO the whole
state and not alone to the city of New
York, and that it ought to include all
government positions and not those
or teachers only, sounds like the ex-
elIDe of man who is trying to es-
Hcnpe from the manifest justice of the
measure Itself, since enacted into law
tO the satisfaction of all concerned.
His prophecy that the desired legis-
AAfion would be unfortunate both for
The schools and teachers" has proved
N foolish as his misgivings about
me income tax, whose rejection by
fhe legislature he also advised.
II would be interesting to know II
Che hundred per cent. candidate"
hOlds II to be still a fundamental
Ssatter." which he "canot approve"

women shall receive equal pay with

The first words with which the
young man greeted his brother, in
whose charge he was, when the latter,
after the train had stopped and the
crew and passengers had rushed back
expecting to fix their eyes on a hor-
ribly mangled body, were: Il know
something now, for the first time in

his brother, 81 know you, now. did
not know who you were for a long

Both the brother and the young
man were backward about telling of
their past histories, but ii is known,
from the remarks the young man
made as soon as relief reached him,
that he had been suffering from some
mental arrangement, probably caused
by concussion of the brain following
the accident.

-Asading out call for the meeting of
fhe adjourned state convention on

II has been found impossible to Sc

Senator Pomerene is chairman and
viii call the convention to order.
The real purpose of the convention
iG TO adopt the state party platform
The wisdom Of holding the platform

been shown by turn of events, the
Democrats of the state finding them
selves automatically In the midst OF Il

B0cause OF conditions the form OF the
platform would not be difficult to fore
'Suast. but there are many matters OF
importance In service to the people
ehat demand careful consideration.

Delano Monroe, otherwise known

His collecting methods were so
original that they landed him in the

$500 bond.
Monroe was arrested Friday after.

tent to kin which was preferred by
John Brogdon, who alleges that Mon
roe hit him in the head with stone,
knocked him down and struck him in
the face, breaking two teeth and
knocking out four more. He further
alleges that Monroe voiced his inten-
tion to kill him outright.
The fight occurred about a week
ago at the Davidson livery barn where
Mr., Davidson rescued Brogdon from
his assailant according to the affidavit
made in Squire Harter's court.
Before the squire Friday afternoon,
Monroe admitted having struck Brog
don, but said he did it because Brog-
don had stolen sum of money from
his pockets and he was trying to col
lect the same. Unable to furnish
bond, he is boarding at Hotel Wooli-
son.

 Immediately upon receipt of the information, word was wired to ot- tawa and reply was received au- thOrizing that all transpacifc liners be warned immediately.
 It is believed here, also in Van couver, that the undersea divers might have been shipped to some part of the Pacific Coast, knocked down, and then set up and are now engaged in submarine warfare.

PETROGRAD, Nov. 16-The Sen sational investigation which was started after the discovery Of ir- regularities in the administration of the Russian Red Cross and the f- nances of the evacuation committee has been extended to the Society for the Relief of the Families of Sol diers Killed in Battle and the re- suit is a new scandal.
 It has been ascertained that the funds of the relief society, amount ing to several million dollars. have disappeared completely The exec utlve committee possesses no youch- CTS to show it's disbursements and the Russkye Sloyo and other papers openly charge that the vanished mil lions have been stolen.
 At the last meeting of the so- ciety Mme. Stuerner. the president, was accused of at least knowing what became of the missing funds. Some of the aristrocratic women who act as trustees of the society even went so broadly as to hint that the wife of the prime | minister pocketed the millions and used them for her own purposes.
 Mime. Stuerner indignantly refut- ed this charge and resigned at once In a statement she announces she will prosecute her accusers for erin inal slander and assures the pub lie that the investigation started by the ministry of the interior will win ] dicate her
