Rorn as lowl a hovel; reared in penury, squalor with no gleam of light nor fair sur rounding; without external graces, ac- tual or acquired; without name or fame or officlal training; it was re- served for this strange being, late in life, to be snatched from obscurity, raised to supreme command at a su- preme moment, and intrusted with the destiny of a nation. The great leaders of his party, the most experienced and accomplished public men of the time, were made to stand aside; were sent to the rear, whilst this fantastic figure was led by unseen hands to the front and given the reins of power.

But the rest of the president’s recommen- dations is the vital part. Taken alone, the second and third parts foam only a temporary expedient. At the next session of congress the rest of the recommendations will form the most important work of the legis tors. The president’s strike-settlement plan comprises these measures which were defined in his address to con- gress: 1. Immediate provision for the en- largement of the interstate commerce commission to meet its duties. 2. An eight-hour day as the basis of work and v for operatives. 3. The appointment of a commis- slon to ohserve the actual workings of the eight-hour day and report the facts to congre 4. Authorizing the merce commission to working conditions into in fixing rates. 5. Provision for lic investigation of labor railroad operation before a lockout may be declared. 6. Lodging In the hands of the president power to operate railroads in case of military necessity and to draft train crews and administrative officials for that purpose. Hughes proposes to make an “i sue” out of what has been done. Fri the democratic standpoint such a de- cision on his part should cause re- joicing. Would he have refrained from trying to prevent a strike? Would he have refused to sign the cight-hour law passed by congress? Would he now repeal it if he had the power? Hughes says what has been done is all wrong. The answer is as always: » “Well, what would you have done, and what do you propose?” President Wilson’s recommenda- tions are clear, detailed, and before the public in black and white. Hughes says they are all wrong.

Tt omewhat the same situation that exists among na- tive New Enzlanders, where there recognized problem of the “‘unat- ched woman."” Mr, Ervine tells the spinsters with private incame and the widows without family, who used to spend their days drifting almlessly from boarding house to hboarding house, from resort to resort, ‘‘carry- ing their dullness with them wherever they went.” They were insuffc®ibly bored with life because they had nothing to do, mno occupation for hands or mind, no genuine interest to vitalize their souls. “They filled up hig gaps in their lives with a miscel- lancous collection of ailments and af- | fections and terrors, mean nigglings or futlle benevalence, back-biting or bridge—perpetual, piffling bridge.” The type is quite recognizable. It is on exhibition at every American sum- mer and winter resort, and visi! @ in :ts milder phases in nearly every city. The war has changed all that, de- clares Mr. Brvine. “I¢ there is a lone- Iy woman left in England, it is her own fault,” he “If there is a woman in these islands who is with- out occupation, without friends, with- out definite and high purpose, that woman has no one but herself to | Plame.

All these and myriad other employments have turned lonely, uscless wWamen into women who have many friends and who are performing valuable work.” It is an cxcellent change, g0od un- questionably for the women con- cerned. Still, making surgical band- | ages can hardly be held up as a model | | occupation, nor a permanent one, nor | a productive one.

The money, amounting to $1,925, was deposited by Flannagan 1in a safety de- posit vault, where it has lain ever since. Flannagan was acquitted, as the numbers on the notes did not corre- spond with those stolen. Shartall was trying to withdraw the money when he was arrested.
