Following War Have Made Old
Ideas Look Foolish.

Among the last rights of women 10
be fought is the right to propose.
II is the inevitable consequence of
the vote and Of the war. The position
OF woman with. regard 10 marriage has
entirely changed, and the sooner II is
recognized the better. Up till now
nice women have properly not pro-
posed, because II meant virtually:
"Will you keep mel"
Now that q woman can be as indie
pendent as man she need have no
scruples on that score. "A Girl From
the War" writes In the continental
edition of the London Mail.
In every other direction the position
of men and women, with regard to
marriage, is equal. II is quite ridicu-
lous that II should be an honorable
thing In a man TO love a woman who
does not return his affection. and yet
be disgrace to woman 10 love UNI
asked. A proposal from the man clears
the air, and 1t would be the same with
one from the woman.
In the present condition of things 2
woman often wastes the best years of
her life on hope. IL wCald be much
better If she could say in the begin
ming: Il like you, and If you like me
as much as like you, let US spend our
lives together" 1t would be quite sim
pie for the man TO reply, II he were
of different mind: 81 am sorry. OF
course. like you. but do not feel like
going into partnership"
The woman would then pat him out
of her mind and go about her business.
Broken hearts heal In time, and IL is
possible that hearts would never get
beyond the wounded stage If this plan
were adopted.
There is a serious reason why II
should be adopted. Some badly wound
ed men are feeling much as If they had
changed places with the women. They
do not have to say, "Will you keep
meT when they propose but what 10
them is almost as bad, "Will YOU keep
yourselfY"
II would be a great relief TO many
a crippled man In love If proposals
were taken out of mems hands.
In the present circumstances no nice
girl could bring herself 10 propose,
however willing she is to keep herself,
however much she loves the man.
There is no need 10 fear that the
new right would give added license to
the other kind of girl. She proposes
now. although not in SO many words.

Had Her Hands Full.

An amateur mission worker fiuttered
into one OF the West side Offices OF the
Associated Charities.
"Oh," she exclaimed, 81 have the
saddest case for you. Really, II Is
quite pathetic. A woman, who has
been deserted by her husband, has
FIVE little children to support. She is
TOO frail to work, and I'm sure there
isn't enough in the house for their next
meal"
"But what Is to prevent you from
taking charge of this case yourself?"
asked the official.
"Oh," said the visitor, drawing her
self up haughtily. 81 couldn't think
of it, you know. Why, I'm doing the

COPPER Miners
WAGES REDUCED
DOLLAR A DAY
Industry Returning to Peace
Basis With Drop in Price
of Metal from % to
10 Cents Pound.

Butte, Mont, Feb. 6.-The Eve
principal mining companies of the
Butte district today are posting mo-
tees at their mines announcing a re-
duction of 81 in wages beginning to-
morrow.
The statement of the Anaconda
Mining company, the largest en-
ployer of labor, says that commence
ing February 7 the wages for regu-
lar miners will be $4.75; shaft
miners, $5.25; journeymen in the diff
ferent crafts, $3.50. The wage of
miners has been $5.75 and others in
proportion. The new scale will APP
ply while copper sells from IL to un-
der 10 cents, and until further no.
tice will not be reduced if the cop
per price should fall below IL cents.
Price of Metal Reduced.
New York, Feb. 6.-Ten million
pounds of copper was sold here to-
day by large and small selling
agencies, when the former reduced
the price from % to IS 3-8 cents a
pound, with small lots selling as low
as is cents, according to conserva-
tive estimates in market circles.
While the trading, the first of any
consequence since the signing of the
armistice paved the way for an open
market, was not heavy, copper deal
ers asserted that it marked the be-
ginning of business on a peace scale.
The abandonment of the 23-cent
price, which in December succeeded
the rate of 20 cents agreed upon for
the war period by the producers and
the government was coincident with
an announcement that the big cop
per companies had reduced wages
ST day in conformity with the un-
Outstanding between miners and en-
ployers that pay would be based up
on the selling price of the COM
modify.
Salt Lake City, Feb. 6.-The Utah
Copper company today announced a
reduction in wages of miners and
mill men approximating rs cents a
day, effective tomorrow.

Learns Of Omaha's
Wickedness; Host Has
Auto Taken in Capital
From q StaiF correspondent.

Lincoln, Neb., Feb. 6-(Special
to The ee).-Frank w. Judson re-
turned to Omaha after attending
meeting of the board of regents of
the state university with his faith
again established that the Gate City
is the best in the world.
During a recent visit to Omaha
by ]. E. Miller, mayor and promi-
nent business man of Lincoln and
member of the board of regents
of the state university, Mr.. Judson
who was entertaining his friend.
apologized abjectly for making his
guest walk, stating that his auto
had recently been stolen.
The opening was too big for Mayor
Miller to overlook and he immedi-
ately began telling Mr.. Judson about
the wickedness in Omaha and extoll-
ing the virtues of Lincoln, where,
he stated, "a man need have no fear
of his machine falling into the hands
of auto thieves"
While attending the Lincoln meet
ing Mr.. Judson was a guest Of
Mayor Miller and was taken to the
meeting in his hosts car to prove
the safety Of the capital city" Fol-
lowing the meeting they returned to
the spot where the car had been
parked but no auto could be found.
And it's long walk to Mayor Mil
ler's home. Now in Omaha-etc.,
etc." continued Mr.. Judson, but his
praise for Omaha fell on deaf ears.

Measure Regarding

members of the Douglas county
delegation, headed by Porter, in
troducer Of House Roll No. rs, to
recommit the measure to the con-

whole.
This bill repeats the law that
compels parent and relatives Of per-
pendent insane persons, who are
financially able to do so, to pay
for the keep of such insane per-
sons in the various state hospitals.
The bill was indefinitely postponed
in committee, and was smothered in
an attempt to bring it up for dis

Chicago Grain and Provisions.

Chicago. Feb. s.-Apparently mistaken
reports Of big advance in the Argen-
tine minimum export price Of corn led
to sharp upturns today in the corn mar
ket here, but heavy selling ensued and
the close was unsettled, 2%c net lower
to &c gain, with May Slip to $1.12A and
July sl.0s% to s1.0s%, Oats finished sc
off to &c advance and provisions I'M
changed to SOC higher.
According to the gossip current In the
corn pit. the Argentine export minimum
had been lifted to s5c a bushel from 74Ac
Although the. trade was in general dis
posed to doubt that such a radical change
had been made, most Of the houses with
Argentine connections bought and this
fact tended to emphasize bullish senti-
ment. Reports that flour purchases for
European relief would begin again next
week and that packers had received large
orders from the food administration gave
further temporary stimulus to buyers Of
corn, Weakness, which prevailed later,
was largely due to general construction
that the s5c referred to in the Argentine
gossip meant offers to ship T. o. b, during
March at that price, equivalent to $40
at New York.
Oats merely followed the trend Of corn.
Packers buying gave strength 70 pro-
visions The market, however, receded
somewhat when corn turned weak.
