FIELD NOTES

Reports from the we'll of
 the Adamana Company are very encouraging, the state |ment being made that the formation is very satisfact- |ory as compared with expec-
 tations. The hard lime in
 which the drill has been pounding the past few days
 has been penetrated and drilling is now in a brown shale, the baiIings carrying a few colors, as reported by
 Manager Hennessy. It is expected that in the next 200 feet the first sands will be encountered and interest is keen as to whether or not the first sand will carry an oil content, the company's geologist conceding the pos. of encountering oil at that depth. Two towers are being worked and pro- gress being made is gratify- 1 ing to stockholders and di- rectors.
 There has been no work at the HOpi- Wind River well for the past week, H. C.I Closer, in charge of the Wind River operations, stat ing that cable and other ma terial was expected at any time which would enable him to continue drilling oper- ations and that it is his ex- pectation that this we'll will be drilled to a much greater depth. Mr. Glosser states that his instructions to go ahead have not been altered.
 The material so longawait- ed by the HOlbroOk Oil Com pany has been sent to the field and Superintendent Hastings has directions from the management to resume work at once. As this ma terial went out today it isl assumed operations will be- gin within the next day or two.

The "Social Stign1a'
, the Editor of The Tribune.

To the Editor of The Tribune.
Sir: The interesting letter of Mrs.
Hansl is presented as a denial of my state
ment that the college woman and the pro
fessional woman look with contempt upon
the activities connected with housekeeping
and homemaking. Yet a careful reading
of her letter seems to show that she her
self has this attitude of mind, for she
speaks of household tasks as being "repc-
titious and a drudgery" and demanding no
mental effort; ans in the next paragraph
she points out that one cannot sweep,
wash dishes or make beds properly with
out keeping ones mind on the work. Later,
alluding to the home Mrs. Hansl says:
"'rhe educated woman of to-day is, [
think trying to get out of it, for she hates
a mudde and, what is more, she wants to
know for what sort of world she is bring
ing up her daughter. For it is obvious
that in a scrvantless world, filled with la
bor-compellng houses, it would be quite
impossible for any woman to have both
career and a family, and so, unless we de-
wise a world with better living conditions,
we are simply driving the next generation
of Girls to a most heartrending CHOICE"
Mrs Hansl is quite right in assuming
that no woman can be a successful wife,
mother and housckeeper and at the same
time pursue a professional career, under
present conditions; but, unless one re-
CARDS the domestic career contemplate
or obnoxious the choice between these
lines of activity could scarcely be de-
scribed as "heartrending.' When she adds
that the bachelor girl "wll not risk the
loss of all her immediate enjoymcnts for
the gain of a home which will only rob her
of her hard earned Freedom" one can only
conclude that Mrs. Hansls attitude of
mind toward homes and housework is
actlv what | contendcd, in my former letter.
was commonly found among college gradu-
ates and professional women. And | am
still convinced that it is mistaken atti-
tudc of mind and has much to do with the
social stigma" which is such bugbear to
feminine domestic employees. Personally
look upon housework as both useful and
an honorable line of endeavor, and many
of my own maids have left my employ in
order to marry that | conclude that good
many more agree with my views.

Americans All!

The city yesterday called truce to
the inglorious aftermath of the great
conflict during which all were brothers
who sought the common good.
The flag was passing by and Pershing
was in command. 1t was big moment
"a moment whose thrill and cleansing
influence will long persist.
"Americans ALL" This is the mes
sage of Pershing and the 1st Division.
Our disunities, our agonisms-how
dwarfed are these pygmy things in
the presence of the great unities, the
great harmonies! Destiny joined us to-
gether to noble ends, and passion, and
narrowness, and prejudice will never
sunder the union. The tramping feet of
yesterday proclaimed this with every I'M
pact. Faith looks up and we behold
other generations also not disobedient
when comes a heavenly call.

From Mr.. Anderson

To the Editor Of The Tribune.
Sir: The statement made by Congress-
man Haskell, one Of the successful nomi-
nees for county judge in Brooklyn, and
by the Association Opposed to National
Prohibitions that the Anti-Saloon League
made a bitter fight, or any kind of real
tight, on Mr.. Haskell is not true. After Mr.
Haskell charged that he was being op-
posed, and not until then, the Anti Saloon
League sent out a few letters to selected
lists, aggrcgating not to exceed about l per
cent of the voters of Brooklyn, and then
finding that the Republican leaders were
not willing to have a real fight made, the
Anti-S Saloon League washed it's hands of
the whole affair
The statement made by Mr.. Haskell and
the wet interests, that his nomination as
county judge in one county is evidence of
a reaction against prohibition in New York
State, is likewise not true. Mr.. McNab, the
man who introduced the ratification reso-
luton and the enforcement bill, was nomi-
mated in an open fight for the same office
in another county, and dry" nominated to
succeed him. In every case in the recent
primary where man who voted for rati-
tication was running for denomination to
the Assembly and there was an open, clear
cut fight on that issue the prohibition
candidate was successful, and this in
cludcd three cases in Buffalo and one in
Syracuse, which are recognized "wet" centres
upstate and supposed to be even stronger
against prohibition than Brooklyn.

Fares and the Mayor

The Public Service Commission has in
creased the fare on the trolley line of the
New York e. North Shore Traction
Company, in Queens. The Manhattan
& Queens Traction Corporation has a
similar application pending before the
commission, but the hearing is stayed by
Supreme Court order obtained by the
Corporation Counsel at Mayor Hylan's
instance. The issue is whether the COM
mission has power to alter fares in re-
spect to franchises granted since the
constitutional amendment Of 1874 when
the rate was fixed by contract In addi-
tion to the legal issue there is wordy
conflict between Commissioner Lewis
Nixon and the Mayor, in which, accord
ing to the Citizens Union, "the Mayor
has played the demagogue."

A Prussian Dirge

The Preussische KreuS-Zeitung sheds
bitter tears over the sad plight of that
erstwhle lord of creation, the Prussian
officer According to this leading organ
of Ost-Elbian junkerdom, the crowning
misfortune that befell this monocled
demigod consists. not in the unparalleled
defeat suffered by his country, nor in
the shrinking of the colossal leu
tonic fighting machine to mere gen
darmerie of 100000, but in the unspeak-
able degradation that henceforth the
Prussian officer will have no king to
serve. "a republican army" we are in
formed, lacks that strong spiritual tie"
which "welded the royal Prussian army
into a single block" which, however, did
not save this same army from receiving
the thoroughcst thrashing recorded in
modern history. No wonder the Berliner
Tageblott finds it rather extraordinary
under the circumstances that "the officers
of the French Republic should have done
such a good job of it, or that the Ameri-
cans, equally kingless should have sue
ceeded in getting up an, alas! only too
well organized army in such short
time"
The Kreu<-Zeitung assails Scheide-
mann for saying that the new German
army will consist of "blameless knights
of freedom" The idea, indeed, of
mere Scheidemann, "Sozi," talking
about knighthood! "Chivalry" the
junker organ instructs him and the
world at large, "was the test by which
even the youngest officers could be Sc
lected for admission to the court and
for the privilege of becoming comrades
in arms of the All-Highest War Lord"
If the Kreus- -Zeitu,g means hereby
that only Social Democrats are eligible
for the new German officers corps, it
exhibits more nerve than regard for
truth. The steady complaint of the
German democratic press is just about
the pre&rnderance of the counter revolu-
ZIONIST and monarchist element among
the officers. AS to the tragic assertion
that the officer Of the republican army
is not hofdhig, or entitled to reception
at court-well, the obvious retort is:
Why not try Amerongen?
