nomic waste in the administration of
the law in state and nation. We
spend vast sums building court
houses, paying judges, clerks and oth
ers and the product in justice is dis
proportionate to the plant and work-
ling force. There is no country in the
world where the doing of justice is
burdened by such heavy overhead
charges. It all causes an enormous
waste of time on the part of wit
nesses, jury panel and parties. The
ease with which admission to the bar
is secured in many jurisdictions and
attraction of a career which affords a'
living without manual labor has
crowded the. bar with more lawyers
than are necessary. Of the 114,000
lawyers in the United States a very
considerable part are not needed. If
that business were conducted like the
business of any great industrial or
transportation company which is
striving for the highest efficiency at
the least cost in order to conmete
successfully with its rivals, a very
considerable percentage of the 114,000
would be discharged. Why do these
defects exist in our udminisri-ntinn nf
justice? The American people are
not quarrelsome or litigious. They
are good natured practical, simple and
direct in their methods, respecters of
"inside information" on what tho
Southern politicians think of suf
frage, and on their report to the con
vention will depend whatever decision
is made for future suffraire activitv

Full Text of Strike Order.
Washington, Aug. 20. The strike
order issued to the railroad employes,
to take effect Labor day, September 4,
unless it is canceled by a satisfactory
settlement, is brief. It is addressed to
all members of the four brotherhoods
(Locomotive Engineeis, Locomotive
Firemen and Enginemen, Railroad
Trainmen, and Order of Railway Con
ductors) and is signed by the various
general chairmen. It follows:
"Sirs and Brothers This is to ad-
vise you that the vote

"Notwithstanding this, your repre

a satisfactory settlement and n strike
under the laws of the respective or
ganizations becomes effective on Sep
tember 4, li)l(i, at 7 a. m.
"Impart this iuformation so those
interested will understand that they
are to promptly obey."
On a separate, sheet the duties of
j members and officers in the conduct of
tho strike are set forth. Particular
emphasis is placed on conducting the
proposed strike as peacefully as nos-
I sible. Among tho duties of members
set forth are these:
I "No man in road service involved in
the strike will perform any service af

the trip and deliver the engine and

i which he will perform no further ser

in other than road service will leave

So important is the South regarded
by the suffrage leaders that one en
tire evening session of the convention
has been set aside for a presentation
of the Dixie suffragists' reports. The
night of September seventh will be
officially known as "Dixie Night",
and it promises to- furnish one of the
big surprises of the convention. On
that night the delegates flrom all
pans oi tne country will get some
first hand information from Southern
women on how the South stands on
suffrage. According to Mrs. Carrie
Chapman C.-Uf, President of the Na
tional Association, the information
will not be displeasing.
Details of the information which is
to be presented to the convention by
the Southern leaders are being jeal
ously guarded, but it is admitted that
there are surprises in store for those
who have been laboring under the de
lusion that the Southern States as a
whole, are opposed to granting the
ballot to women.
Among the representative women
who will speak Dixie Night and tell of
the strides woman suffrage is making
in the South are:
Mrs..B. J. Cunningham, president
of the Texas Woman Suffrage associ
ation; Mrs. Edward McGehee, presi
dent of the Mississippi Federation of
Women's Clubs, and Mrs. Lila Meade

Equal Suffrage league. Of.her South

have been invited to address the ran.

of the country. Its specific purpose
is to determine the political policy
which the National American Woman

partisan body will follow during the
