THEY HAVE CONFIDENCE IN WILSON LL reports from the mid- N dlf west show the presi dent was treated with the utmost enthusiasm on his speaking trip and that he in spired general confidence in the necessity of his prepared ness program. People know that Woodrow Wilson is not an alarmist. He is a man of peace, disposed to settle diffi culties bv diplomacy. There fore when he asks for a stren gthening of the country's mili tary forces it is readily under stood he is thinking of defense; and not aggression and be-j lieves that preparedness will tend to keep us out of war mt iu. f ..

II should be some aDorehen- sion of a flood in view of the unprecedented snow here' and in the mountains. Unless HI rules are broken we are go- mg to have some have some high water and the preparedness policy is not amiss. This is particularly true in view of the city's experience in 1906. At that time the dam : re came as a result of two we&k spots in our bulwark, ore the absence of a proper; flood gate on the Bvers mill! race and the other a weak1 jdace in the levee by the La-i it w residence. Because of1 those defects thousands of dol lars ir damage resulted, yet it ! could have been avoided ill proper steps had been taken in; time. Against .i flood this winter J'endleton is well prepared and' the chief danger seems to be' in the possibility of a jam in the river at some point. Should! jam form at the railroau 'ridge or at any of the city bridges there would be danger of unundating the entire city with the exception of the hill ectioiis. We may i-scape any serious! lluod but with the conditions ricinting the city officials arei riyht in rising to the occasion i l taking steps to guard thel levee and U see that jams arej not allowed to form at thej iiHiges.

Contrary to a widespread belief, the Missouri Woman for January shows, by the census figures, that the encroachment by men on women's work has been far greater than the en croachment by women OB men's labor. TaU-mo that emintrv as a w.v Kvi v.iv w work on women s clothing i now done by men. In cotton fni-tnrp nfl 0 ner cent of the workers are men. In confectionery. :5.9 per cent: in hosiery and knit goods. 27.4 per cent; in silk and silk goods. 35 per cent; in woolen goods, 53 per cent, and in butter and cheese manufacture no less than 91.8 per cent. These fig ures are not so bad for Mis-.--ouri, where women still large ly monopolize such women's work as makinir clothing and t onfectionery. Contrasted with this, the en croachment of women in real; work for men. such as. the in-i dustries that make things of metal and wood, is insignifi cant.
