A Request

Elijah P. Lovejoy had the vision to
see that human slavery must be
doomed; that for him to yield, turn
hack from the work he had under
taken. would be cowardly surrender
to self, when the cause demanded
sacrifice. Because of that vision and
that decision he is today numbered
among the immortals who gave their
lives to the cause of human freedom

prepare him for the. vision has

A "Tip"
(Biddeford Journal)

The defeat of Governor Milliken OF
Maine in the gubernatorial primary
in which he sought a denomination,
was entirely unexpected in political
circles throughout New England
Manchester Mirror.
The frequency with which the un-
expected has been happening
throughout the world during the past
six years might well have been taken
as tip in this case.

Well Groomed

A correspondent Of the New York
World reports that the delegates OF
the Democratic National Convention
are an unusually well groomed lot OF
men, noticeably different in that re-
spect from the delegates of eight
years ago and superior to those that
assembled a few days at Chicago.
This condition of things is difficult
to associate with the Underlined,
but, as a matter of fact. there are good
reasons for concluding the "upterri-
fed are not well represented there.
Some have applied the term hand
picked" to the present convention.
Be that as 1t may, We know there
are few primary selections among
them; that those selected at the
Georgia primaries represent only
about a third Of the ballots cast; also
that among them are many from the
ranks Of place holders, we'll groomed
mantally as well rs physically.
70 this end President Wilson's re-
fusal to make known his attitude
toward a third term has contributed
materially. allowing him to hold the
reins on the convention and keep the
Office holders on taut traces. All but
four members Of his cabinet are IN
San Francisco assisting in the direc-
ton of affairs. In the face OF these
evidences the chance Of Bryan doing

Review of Craig's School
Report Called Too Harsh
Shadows Analysis of Plans
Criticized by Yeska Before
Board of Education

A review of Comptroller Craig's re-
port on school building plans and
appropriations for last month, prepared
by Edward Shallow, Associate Super
intendent of Schools, caused dispute
last night between its author and
Joseph Yeska at meeting Of the Board
of Education.
Mr.. Yeska thought that the language
was "much too harsh" and might hurt
Mr.. Craigs feelings. He objected par
ticularly to a paragraph in which Mr..
Shallow attributed the "unsoundness"
of the Comptroler's recommendations
to "incorrect or misleading Informal
ton" rather than "to desire of dis
agreeing with the Board of Education. "
Mr.. Yeska wanted to know how the
board could submit plans for school
buildings for which the money had
not been authorized. 1t seemed to
him, he said. like spending money be
fore one had it. Mr.. Shallow replied
in what were considered classroom
tones that "a seven-year- old would
know that" and the dispute waxed hot.
When both contestants paused for
breath Mrs Ruth F. Russell suggested
that action be deferred until January
%, and upon that date Mr.. Shallow
and Mr.. Yeska confer on the vcrbiage
Of the review. The suggestion as to
deferment was adopted

OH Welfare Bills and
Former Senator Mills Is
Unable to Make Address
Meet at Republican Club
Excited Crowd Finally De-
parts When an Executive
Session Is Announced

The Republican Club has a reputa-
ton for hospitality which was the un-
doing yesterday of what was to have
been private meeting of committee
called to discuss the proposed women S
welfare legislation.
Theodore Douglas Robinson, chair
man of the committee. arriving for his
meeting at o'clock, found the library
of the club seething with what had
just before been an audience Of women
called together to study the history Of
the Republican party. Mr.. Robinson
looked out at the stormy afternoon,
then he looked at lingering women, and
he graciously invited the audience to
stay while and listen to the delibera-
tions of the special committee, which
was to be addressed by Ogden Mills
for the welfare bin and by Miss Beat
rice Brown against them.
Six Seek Floor at Once
The women waited, 800 strong. That
is how it happened that an hour later
six women were on their feet at once
demanding that the chair recognize
them, while the men members of the
committee we're huddled speechless in
q corner and the chairman was saying:
Ladies. Senator Mills is going to
make his speech now When he has
finished Miss Brown will be given five
minutes for rebuttal. None of you
will be allowed to talk any more. This
You were invited to sit and listen to
our remarks, not to hold meeting
of your own"
"Mr. Chairman" called meek voice
from the crowd, "some of US have
to go home now. May we go before
the speech 2"
"You bet you'll" said Mr.. Robinson,
joyfully.
About half the women departed The
members of the committee then left
the arms of the library chairs and
settled down, one man to a chair, and
Senator Mills was allowed to finish
his speech.
Calls Opponents Reactionary
He argued that the proposed women's S
welfare bills were in line with all
progressive legislation; that England,
France and many states Of the Union
where women vote had already passed
eight hour bills for women, and that
those who opposed these bills were re-
dictionary.
The earlier excitement was created
by the vigor with which Miss Brown
presented the case Of the women who
object to the protective Legislation,
while several in the audience took up
the cudgels in their behalf.
as it not true that you represent a
small group of women printers and
not the whole mass Of working
women?" demanded one woman of Miss
Brown.
at is no insult to say that repre-
sent small group" retorted Miss
