Women Have More En-
durance than Men.

l agree with DR.. Dudley A.
Sargent of Harvard University
that women are biologically more
savage than men and have more
endurance and should make as
good soldiers as armed men.
What DR.. Sargent says is per-
fectly true, and no one else in
the country is more fit than he to
pass on the question of woman's
physical fitness. For IS years he
has watched them go through
strenuous exercises in the college
gymnasia, and has noted their
growth.
And what is true of the college
woman has always been true of
all other women. Women taking
care of large families-washing,
cooking, sewing and toiling con-
tinuously-have gained in endm
ance. The women who have had
TO go out into business, as stem
ographers and Office girls, have
not weakened in stuffy offices.
By an actual investigation / found
they had reached a remarkable
degree Of endurance. They have
acquired physical efficiency.

thing man can do. And they
have done it for two years.
When young women are not
strong it is because they have a
physical defect, or have not had
proper training. And yet, in
spite of that lack of training,
they can undergo pain, hardship
and the most exhausting labor.
1t IS the lazy woman who is nc t
strong. Give her work, and
plenty of it, and watch her i'm

William Mckinley. At the pre-

be able to celebrate the first year

vital necessity of restoring what

Consul General George F. An
derson, Hongkong, China, writ
ing on the subject of meat pack
ing industry in that section, says:
With the return of exchange to
a normal level the comparatively
low price of meats in this field
and the comparatively low cost
of labor will doubtless make it
practically Impossible for Ameri-
can packers to compete with local
interests save only in fine and
special products" What is that
statement to which four of the
FIVE members of our tariff COM
mission have committed them
selves? Differences in the rate
of wages have nothing to do with
trade" The viewpoint of the
blbliolater standing on the Office
rug and that of the practical man
light there on the ground seem
to be extremely different.

stop the brewing of beer whenever he deemed such
action advisable to conserve food.
From that day to this the Anti-Saloon League has
been reentesssn its efforts compel the President
to exercise thi4s power.
A week ago, through its mnions in the House,
the Anti-Saoon League wrote into the agricultural
appropriation bill the insulting stipulation that the
$4,000 intended for farm survey work to expe-
dite provisioning the army should not become avail
able unless and until the President proclaimed war
prohibition.

cheney rider has made It's appear
ance again as All amendment to
the military appropriation bill
1t was offered in the House By a
New York Democrat and adopted
by the slender majority of five.
It follows the language of the
same rider on the naval bill. and
prohibits the installation in any
government work of a time saw
ing device, or the payment Of
bonuses or cash rewards to stim-
ulate work among employees. IL
will be remembered that when
the naval bill was in the Senate
the friends of efficiency surcee1-
ed in effecting a compromise by
striking out the first part of the
amendment. but leaving in the
bill the provision permitting the
payment of bonuses. 1t is prob.
able the same action will be TAX

A test vote has been taken in
the Senate on the socalled SmOot
pension bill providing a general
increase in the pensions of the
old soldiers. The other day Sen
ator Smoot moved that the Sen
ate proceed to the consideration
of his measure, and on a record
ed vote the Senator's motion pre-
vailed by Al to 16. 1t is inter-
esting to note that all of the six.
teen votes in opposition to the
bill were cast by Democrats, all
of them from the South, except
one from South Dakota. The
vote shows that the Senate is ov-
erwhelmingly in favor of grant
ing the veterans relief from the
present high cost of living. and
that the opposition of the South
to the legislation will be unavail-
ing in the final test of strength.
