Eight persons injured in the col

ington Railway and Electric car and
a standing freight car of the Wash
ington, Baltimore and Annapolis line
in Benning road, between Sixteenth
and Seventeenth streets northeast,
shortly after midnight were able to
go home early today after hospital
treatment.
Those hurt when the two cars came
together were:
c. Evans, conductor of city car,
hurt about the face, hips, and right
arm.

bauIt. of the Ninth precinct, slight
injuries.

proaches from the Georgetown Side.
NJ street slopes from Thirty-fourth
west, so that while the east branch
of the "Y" will strike NJ street III
Thirty-fourth at grade, the west
branch will be high above NJ street,
affording a means of connection with
Prospect avenue by the viaduct plan.
Two Supporting Columns.
This viaduct will have but two
supporting columns in NJ street, one
at either curb. These columns will
be open. permitting north and south
traffic at Thirty-hfth street. There
will be sixteen feet headroom under
the Viaduct.
Some changes probably will be
necessitated in the terminal facilities
of the Washington and Old Dominion
railroad. the only line of street cars
now using the Aqueduct bridge. This
road has a station at Thirty-siXth
and NJ streets, opposite the car barn
of the. Capital Traction Company.
Since its cars will enter the new
bridge at Thirty-fourth street, two
squares east, a new station at that
point may be necessary.
Don't Use the Bridge.
The Capital Traction Company and
Washington Railway Electric Com
pany do not at present use The
bridge, but the construction plan of
the new Key bridge is such that botn
will be able to make direct physical
connection with car systems crossing
the bridge.

TAKES UP HOME PROGRAM
Foreign Affairs Not Discussed al
Whine House Conference.

At a two-hour conference at the
White House last night between the
president and Eve Democratic lead
ers OF the Senate, matters Of "a pure
ly domestic nature" were discussed
exclusively. Foreign affairs did not
enter into the discussion.
This became known at the White
House today following a series OF ru-
mors which had been floating about
the Capitol as to the real object of
the meeting.
The Presidents legislative program
was gone over at the conference. II
was attended by Chairman Stone and
Senators Pomerene and Salisbury, of
the Foreign Relations Committee, and
Senators Walsh and Hoke Smith.
1t is said that the President, fol-
lowing the conference. expressed him.

the progress being made toward pass
ing the Administrator Congress

insist that his purpose is twofold. IN
the first place, 1t is stated, he be-
lieves that such a league would be
the strongest possible bulwark
against the aims OF aggressive pow
ers, and to that extent would act as
a check on the principal cause of
wars. Any Hanger that may lie in
wait for the United States he is said
to believe, would arise through the
efforts of a foreign country to en-
croach upon the rights of this coun-
try 1t was with this thought in
mind, it is believed by officials close
to the President, that he proposed as
a cardinal principle OF such a league
an extension of the Monroe doctrine
to the theory that mo nation should
seek to extend its polity over any
other nation or people, but that every
people should be left free to deter
mine it's own polity, its own way CT
DEVELOPMENT, unhindered, unthreat-
ened, unafraid, the little along with
the great and powerful.
Japan,s Tendency Watched.
It is no secret that 1t Is from the
direction of Japan that many officials
in Washington believe the greatest
danger will face the United States at
the conclusion of the present war.
Despite the preoccupation OF the
world with the events In EtFope,
anxious chances have been turned
from Washington from time TO- time
in the direction of the Far East. DIS
cussing the question today, no less
than three responsible officials asked
nj raaanlnUV
quoted above, did not seem to apply
with peculiar force to the enorts OF
the Japanese government to extend
its poIity" over China, regardless OF
China's protests.
Soon or late, officials here seem to
feel, it will be necessary, unless ia
pan modifies her policy, for the United
States to inquire more fully into
events in the far East, where Japa-
nese aggression appears from time to
time to threaten trouble A league
of nations, founded upon the princl-
pies enunciated by the President, II
is contended in official quarters, would
from the outset be committed to poll
cies unfavorable to such aggression.
In South America.
In the second place. the President
is said to feel, there would be much
less danger of any single nation Of
Europe attempting to make encroaeh-
ments in Central and South America
if-all were combined In q league -
maintain peace, than II one side or
the other should gain such a position
of dominance out of the present war
to make It possible for one OF the
dominant nations to challenge the
Monroe Doctrine. This idea, too. II
is observed, may lie behind the Presi-
dents wish that the present war
should not be carried to q point OF
complete victory for either side.

HIGH SCHOOLCADETS
GIVEN COMMISSIONS
Secretary of War Baker Tells
Washington Students Of Mill
tary Training Benefits.

With a guard of honor standing at
attention. with martial music tingling
the nerves OF the hundreds of cadets
and their friends present, eighty-one
officers of the High School Cadet
Corps were presented their commits
sions by Secretary of War Baker at
Central High School yesterday.
Members of Congress, those inter
ested in the military affairs of the
nation, and school officials were pres
ent to lend color to the honoring OF
the cadet officers. Hundreds OF
friends of the boys thronged the gal
lery Of one of the largest auditoriums
in the city.
Baker Makes Address.
The principal address was made by
Secretary Baker. He spoke of the
benefits to be derived from military
training, a. a part of lie general edu-
cation.
"Education," he stated, sis neces-
sary that we have democracy even in
this free country Of ours. One OF the
certain methods of obtaining democ-
racy is through military training.
This training will, apart from its mill
tary value, which is great, give a
fundamental experience in citizenship
that fits the participant for the obliga-
tions of citizenship as no other single
training can.
Better Citizen Results.
"Once a man has had some military
training, no matter how slight, he is
the better citizen for it. The charges
that to be a soldier is to be servile,
as the pacifsts charge, is false" Mr..
Baker stated.
The Rev. John Van Schaick. jr,
president of the Board of Education,
presided, during the opening of the
exercises.
Henry p. Blair, former superinten-
dent OF the Board of Education, in
troduced Superintendent OF Schools
Ernest L. Thurston. This is the time
for the growth of the cadet regiment
and the cadet movement" Mr.. Thurs
ton declared. THE work of the cadets
in the schools all over the country,
but especially here, is attracting wide
spread attention"
He spoke of the increasing scope of
the cadet work, and predicted that IL
would not be long before the cadets
wiuld receive regular scholastic credit
for their drill.
Lieut.. Norman B. Briscoe, cadet in
structor, also spoke.
Henry P. Blair addressed the boys
as "the handsomest group of boys in
Washington" He spoke briefly on
the former corps.
The Mckinley Manual Training
School Orchestra gave several selec-
tions. and a pipe organ recital was
presented by Samuel Wood.

SUFFRAGISTS FAVOR
WILSON PEACE PLAN
All Women Behind League to
Enforce Peace, Declares
Association Head.

Suffragists generally favor the sugges-
tons contained in President Wilson's
address as they interpret 1t, but are
handicapped in any desire they may
have to support such ideas, for instance,
as a league to enforce peace. according
to leaders Of the Congressional Union
and the National Woman Suffrage As
ISOLATION.
Two women were authorized to sneak
for suffragists today on this topic. They
are Mrs. Walter McNab. president of the
National Woman Suffrage Association.
and Miss Alice Paul. national chairman
Of the Congressional Union for Woman
Suffrage.
'"consent Of the Governed,
AS suffragists we are very much
pleased at the emphasis which the Presi-
dent laid upon the consent OF the gov
erned.' " said Mrs. Miller. And here 1
think 1t, Is not overstepping the bounds
on such historic occasion to Iiken US
the women Of the United states-to the
governed In the future the heretofore
silent mass Of mankind everywhere must
be given the right to say when they
shall give their blood for their country
and when they shall stop pouring II out.
The same likeness between women and
the governed is seen anent the Presi-
dents declaration that there can be no
stability when the will Is in rebellion.
Women make the greatest sacrifices
In war. Women in this present terrible
conflict. not only are making the same
sacrifices they always did, but they
have added to their burdens by taking up
the work left by their men when the
latter marched into the blood-soaked
trenches.
Women for Peace League.
II think 1 speak for every woman suf-
frase believer. or anti-sufrage believer.
when i say all women are behind a
league to enforce peace"
Miss Paul. while declaring that until
women have the vote. they will devote
all their attention to that because IL IL

to them" admitted that the suggestions
for . league to enforce peace would I'M

BASKETBALL GAME
SATURDAY NIGHT

Arrangements have been completed
for another basketball game, to oe
played next Saturday night in the
local high school gymnasium, be-
tween a team of the Elko high school
and the Winnemucca high school
boys.
The teams are old rivals and a
good game may be looked for. as both
are "out for blood" The local boys
are practicing diligently for this game
and are expecting to put Que over
on the Elko team.
Let everybody show the good old
school spirit and be at the game next
Saturday night. If you can't go, buy
a ticket anyway. 1t will show that
you are good sport, besides helping
the boys defray their expenses for the
game.
The Elkof team defeated the Ely
team and has the right to represent
the eastern part of the State.
The team which wins the game here
next Saturday night and the one to
be played in Elko on March %. will
play Reno high school for the State
championship.
After the game Saturday there will
be an impromptu dance in the high
school gym" for the visiting team
and patrons of the game.
The admission fee will be 25 cents
which is very reasonable considering
that last year at Reno, when the local
boys played the Reno team in the
seni-fnals, the admission was SO
cents.
The Winnemucca team is composed
of Cecil Callahan, captain; Earl Ran
dolph, manager; George Hoskins
Abbott Gunnell. Won Edwards, Archie
Mangan and Dick Dunn.
The Elko team will probably arrive
Saturday.

Senate Passes Primary Bill

The Senate conference committee
recommended that the Senate accept
the Assembly substitute for the Luce
and Huskey primary election bills,
and the report was adopted. The bill
was slightly amended by the confer
ence committee and was passed by
the Senate Tuesday night.
The bill contains many features of
the Huskey bill, and Senator Huskey
says about 90 per cent of it is his bill.
Tt contains the non-partisan features
of the Huskey bill as applied to the
judiciary. University regents and
school offices, but not for county and
township Offices.
The platforms are those of the
Luce bill. the candidates being given
authority to draft the platforms. In
dependent candidates are required to
file ten days before the day Of the
primary election.
Governor Boyle went before the
conference committee and urged the
adoption of the pre-primary platform
provision of the Huskey bill, but the
committee disregarded his recommen-
dation.
The bill. as passed. is not the origi-
nal Huskey bill, but it contains about
90 per cent of the provisions of the
Huskey bill. Provisions for non-par-
tisan election of regents of the Uni
versity, school officers and judicial
officers were embodied in 1t. The
provision for non-partisan county Off
GERS was killed.

PROCEEDINGS OF
STATE LEGISLATURE

A rough estimate made by Senator
Buol on the State tax rate for 1917
sets it at sixty-four cents on $100
For 1918 his estamate is fifty-four
cents. The figures were made on the
total State budget for the next two
years, which is $929,4S1.42 This total
however. was brought up to $960,00C
by additional appropriations.
This rate of sixty-four cents agrees
with the estimate published in The
Silver State on March s, and will
make the total State and county rate
for Humboldt $1.56 on 800 valuation
and the total rate for Winnemucca
1898.
