Miss Min na A.h an Miss Inez Knowles, sorority sinters of Miss Wheeler, were at the station to see her. My Country "TI of Tlico, Bweet I .mill of Llbvtrty." Movement For a Five-Day Week. Officers of the United Mine Workers of America sny time nt the national convention of that body,, to bo held early in September, there is goinK to be a demand made for a 30-hour week, the working time to be divided in five days of six hours each. Alone; with this short day and short week combination thero is to bo n demand for a wage increase of 40 to (id per cent over the present scale. AIoiib with th;s remarkable pro posal must be placed the demand of 12,000 union painters and decorators in New York who, though not demand ing such short hours lis tho miners, have actually gone on strike to obtain a five-day week, thuB precipita'irf thiv five-day movement in the united States. These demands arc nnlurally re garded with keen interest by the ma jority of Americans, who would re joice just as much as the miners and painters In the prospect of a six-hour dny or n five-day week, but who do not sec any immediate ( possibility of either. Where is the farmer who puts in so short n day or week? Where is the newspaper man, or doctor, or mer chant, or banker, who can attain that desirable gdnl of case? Whore is the housewife who hopes ever to get her work done in 110 hours a week? It is well to aspire to such ease as this, anil work constructively for the creation of conditions making it possible, not for nny single class, but for all classes. Hut it is necessary for people who realize the actual plight of the nation and the world to day to keep repeating that this is no time for such extravagant ventures. Thero has been fJOIU)00,00(l,000 Worth of wealth ilestroped by the war. Tho need of the time is the production of more wealth to make up that lass. Until more is produced, more ennuot be distributed. To work fewer days nnd fewer hours is to limit produc tion, retard the replacement of the lost wealth, keep up prices, and make ev erybody tmor indefinitely. It i.1 tin should be enabled to make n proper living and have its share of the pro ducts of industry. Hut the American people will never get anywhere, under present-economic cufrditions, if they Work productively only six honrs out of HI, or only five days out of seven. Any man or craft that seeks to obtain full compensation for such part-time effort in advance of the time when it will be possible generally, is de manding more than he has any right to. and trying to obtain his extra An Election Problem Very Promptly Met. The Cuban election lawn have been overhauled nnd completely rewritten, and an American has done it. Major General Crowdcr, who was provost marshal-general of the United States army during the war, and who handled the draft, was invited to the island for this purpose by the Cuban government, lie spent four months there, nnd seems to have done n thor ough job. lie took the election machinery out of the hands of the political parties, as some of our stales have done, and put it in charge of the judiciary, giv ing the party orguniziit oris represen tation but no votes. He established a strict corrupt practices act and made it possible for any aggrieved person to get n square deal in an election dis pute, lie brought nil political orgii ni.nt oris under stntiitoiy regulation, arranged for n census of voters and originated a plan whereby every voter will carry an identification card en titling him to vote without registra tion. Having returned to th's country, General Crowdcr might profitably de vote his attention to extending the re forms he hns inaugurated in Cuba. There is hardly one of them that might not be adopted to advantage by some that every occupation of our states. That identification de vice would probably make n h t with the average American voter, wearied of nuioh registering, and might result ill n better turn-nut on election day.

"Hcllevue hospital reports an incrense of cases In the psychopathic ward fir July, 1!)19, over July, 11M8. Other hospitals report little change." Over against these slight discour agements, which are perfectly natural anil were easily to be foreseen nt the. outset of prohibition, the New York Tribune reports decrease of 15 pel cent in crime s of .all kinds, as com pared with July, I1IIK. At tho other end of thn country, Snn Francisco says nrrests for drunk enness have fallen ulmost to nil, nnd thero is a noticeable decrease in crime of all kinds. Restaurants, ire cream parlors and pastry shops report an enormous increase in business. from Chicago comes word Hint the most remarkable falling off has been In the number of non-support com plaints.
