HISTORY TO REPEAT ITSELF
Roman Women Won Laws Reoognt
tIon and Social Status as Re-
suit of Punic Wars.

What some prophets are saying viii
happen to European women after the
present war did actually happen to Ro-
man women as the result OF the Punic
wars before the Christian era their
legal and social status was bettered.
remarks the New York Evening sun.
Prior to this time a Roman matr0u.
while highly respected, had 40 legal
status as a person before tho law
and no separate property rights Sine
passed out Of the 'potestas p power
of her father, into the 'manus' Of her
husband. It was written iu the iusti.
tutes Of Roman law that nothing could
be granted in the way Of Justice 20

fit of women. Also, as men diuln.
ished in numbers after the long and
fierce Punic wars the social status OF
women slowly rose. They retained the
authority they had won over their
households and demanded their share
of the new Greek learning that fol.
lowed the conquest Of Greece.
War, therefore, always hostile in
practice to women, gives historical
evidence of having Indirectly turned
to her permanent advantage. Per

woman's ingenuity in turning seeming

THE FINAL ROUNDUP
The "Last Great Herd" Being Now
Shipped to Market and ere Snow
Flies Will Be No More

The announcement that the Prairie
Cattle company had begun the ship
ment of ~" steers to market this
week, brings to mind that the pass
ing of the last great herd" in south
eastern Colorado was almost an ac-
complished fact. Before Thanksgiv-
ing time it is expected that the final
roundup will have been completed and
the last car loaded.
Three outfits are now on the range
gathering up all that remains at large
of this famous brand, made famous
over more than half a century of ex-
histence in this country. They mark
the end of the roundups in this coun-
try; never more will we witress the
picturesque and interesting gathering
of cattle into great herds, to be
"cut out" into smaller punches and
branded and turned loose once more
TO grow to maturity on the plains
until gathered for shipment to mar
ket. Gone will be that intrepid race
of men-the COW puachers-real pio-
neers in country that would brook
no weakness and was = matter of
the Survival of the fittcst." Men
that looked upon hardship and priva-
ton as the common everyday routine
and who seemed to thrive in the
shadow of dangers that would break
the nerves Of the average man.
Since the early sixties the az"
brand has been known all over south
eastern Colorado, northern New Mex
leo, western Oklahoma and northern
Texas. First established and handled
by the Jones Brothers, then passing
into the hands of the Prairie Cattle
company, a corporation with head
quarters in Edinburgh, Scotland, in
1881. Its management has ever been
vested in men who knew the cattle
business thoroughly and men who have
been big men in every sense of the
word. Their dealings with other out
fits and with the individual has ever
been liberal and fair and just. The
number of their friends and the length
of time that their employees have
been in their service, all attest to this
attribute that goes to make a good
neighbor." The list of managers in
cludes some of the men who have
given much of their time to this great
industry.-Las Animas Leader.

The long session Of the Sixty-fourth
Congress will have appropriated
81, 7OO,00O,OOO before adjournment.
This is nearly half a billion more
than was appropriated the last year
Of the civil war. The exact figures
for 1865 were 81 ,295, O99 ,2S9.5S. These
lavish expenditures are not due alto
gether to preparedness, as the demo-
Gratis would fain have us believe. Sen
ator Curtis in a recent Senate debate
showed that the 1917 increase over
1916 viii be s515,446, 67O.62. The total
increases for preparedness will not
exceed s390,00O,OO0. This includes
the s20,OOO,000 for an armor plant
and s20,O00,000 for nitrate plant.
This leaves an increase of over s125,-
100000 aside from any item that
might be called a part of the pre-
paredness program.
This seems cxtravagant enough.
but the comparison is with a demo-
cratic Congress. When thc COMPARE
son is made with the recent republic
can congresses" the Baltimore plat
form condemned for "profligats
waste" it is worse still. At the close
Of the Sixty-third Congress appropri-
atoms had been made 20 the amount
of s2.231 100000 for the bieanium.
This was s177,OOO,OOO more than was
appropriated by the last republican
Congress. If the short session of the
present Congress should equal the
record Of the long session, and It may
"'-c""d i the total appropriations will
reach s3,40O,OOO, 900, or nearly a bill
lion and a half more than those of
the last republican Congress.
There are increases for every single
department, except pensions The
death angel has permitted some re-
auctions in pensions. There have
been 10000 offices created at an an
nual cost Of s4O,OOO,OOO In the light
of such performances, It is interesting
to reread the Baltimore economy
plank: eve denounce the profligate
waste Of the money wrung from the
people by oppressive taxation
through the lavish appropriations of
recent republican congresses, which
have kept taxes high and reduced
the purchasing power of the peoples
toll. We demand return to that
simplicity and economy which bcfits
a democratic government and a re-
duction in the number Of useless of
fees, the salaries of which drain the
substance of the people. Globe

LADY DUFF GoRDoN's TAILoRs
WALK OUT ON STRIKE

Lady Duff Gordon wore a pout to-
day on the mouth Willie Hearst
thinks so pretty. From her mansion
shop, 400 Lake Shore drive, where
she is trying, with the aid of Willie
Hearst and Sears, Roebuck & Co., to
boost her other name" Lucille" so
it viii, be the best known among the
modistes of America, came discour-
aging news.
The seven tailors employed at the
Lucille shop went on strike today.
Lady Duff G. has boosted that the
wOrkmen in her Chicago and New
York shops are the most skilled and
talented in the country; that each
person who phys a needle to sew
stitches in the wonderful creations
Lucille brings forth is imbued with
the very soul of art in fashion crea-
ton.
But the seven tailors who worked
in Lucile's shop for so cents an hour
decided they could not eat their i'm
bued art with butter spread on it as
a substitute for bread, and went on
strike when they saw Lady Duff was
starting to substitute women tailors
willing to work for SIS to $18 week.
The striking men tailors, who are
members of the Ladies' Tailors'
union, say there are three months a
year at the Lucille shop in which
there is no work or wages for them

SINCE LUDLOW MASSACRE =
BY Basil M. Manly
Washington, Oct 4.-Out of the
ashes of Ludlow is arising a strong
and stable organization of the coal
miners of Colorado.
Reports of the United Mine Work
ers show there are now SO local
unions in Colorado, as compared
with 5 at the time of the strike.
This result is considered by we'll
informed men in the coal industry as
evidence that the Rockefeller indus
trial plan has not removed the griev-
ances of the miners, but has served
simply to convince them of the ne
cessity for an organization within
their own control, through which
they can act collectively.
This progress in the west merely
supplements the great advances
which the United Mine Workers
made in the east, during 1916.
In the bitUminOus field the miners
secured without a strike the cOnces-
sion of the mine-run system, which
insures payment for all coal mined
and also a to Is per cent increase
in wages.
In the anthracite conference Presi-
dent John P White and his col
leagues secured recognition of the
union, an eight-hour day with nine
hours pay, and an increase in wages
apprOximating 10 per cent.
All these advances were secured
without stopping work for a single
day. This nOn-stOppage policy saved
the public hundreds of thousands of
dollars and also brought to the min
ers several weeks wages, formerly
lost while the miners sat waiting for
the operators and their own repre-,
sentatiVes to agree on a scale.

Making a Hens Nest.

Next time you find nest Of eggs
which hen has stolen away. take a
lesson in the proper architecture Of
such a structure. 1t may save few
broken eggs or a poor hatch the next
time you proceed to set hen in your
own clumsy, human fashion The key
note of the stolen nest is its tiattened,
shallow design. This is the way ma
ture has demanded it should be con-
structed to give the best result. How
different from the deep, followed out
contraption into which SO many peo-
pie pile the eggs they expect Biddy
to transform into downy chicks. A
nest, to prove satisfactory, should be
shallow enough to permit hen to
turn her eggs properly. 1t should be
fiat enough to permit the newly
hatched chicks to lie where they are
when released from the shell, instead
OF sliding down into the bottom and
having the eggs roll on top Of them

The Freedom Of the City.

The custom OF granting to a distin-
guished visitor the privilege connect
ed with municipal citizenship which
is known as comforting the freedom
OF the city" obtains in both America
and European cities. The practice is
to enter the names OF such honorary
citizens" upon the register of munich
pal electors, but they are not actually
entitled to exercise the franchise or
to become members of the city's gov
erning bodies The custom amounts
nowadays to little more than a pub
lie expression of esteem, but it's his
tory goes back to the medieval days
when it was a notable and valuable
gift. When the custom originated
there was no general recognition Of
the right Of freedom of domicile, and
cities were more like private corpora
tions with restricted membership
than our modern cities. Such men,
