CuMio is hunting a country In v 1 i. li to hf Wh:it is tin- nutter with .lex- ull increases of salary. Originally It was not nn abuse, for it began long before the days of railroads and when members' salaries wr small. Twenty cents it rnile fucli way to and from Washington was not so much out of the way when members traveled on horseback or by stage coach or private conveyance and had to p.iy tavern hill. But slnc the ei"i of railroads the allowanc Is many times Ihe actual cost of travel. To private citizens who are subpoenaed from any art of th I'nited State as witnesses in the federal courts, cents mileage each way. 10 cents for the round trip, Is allowed. This is fairly liberal and Cormrcrs evident ly thinks it is enough for private cit izens, but it allows its own member. 0 cents a mile each way.

It is practically certain now that the v oman's suffrage issue will be re-submitted to the voters of Michigan at the April election. The Michigan l.'(ual Suffrage association has decid ed upon this course. It will be neces vary to secure permission of the legis In tore, hut there is no doubt this will be given us the Republican majority ij pledged to vote for re-submission The Kuffragists believe It is belt io bring on the second vote as soon as possible that the moial effect of the recent surprisingly big Vote for the i-mendment may influence the voters 1 hey intend to strike while the Iron is hot. Just the same, they will have to conduct a vigorous campaign, for defeat in the spring, so soon afte: the first failure, would defer ultimate v ictory many years. in view of the tact there Is some suspicion as to whether the issue was honestly defeated at the November election, a re-submisslon of the ques tioii will be welcomed by that part of the public which will not be satisfied until it knows finally that the amend ment has been adopted or rejected by a decisive and fair vote.

Kansas has a 'blue sk" law to pre vent people from buying bogus stocks aid bonds, and Michigan Is to have me. Five bills of this kind ha been introduced in the legislature and from these cue good law Is to be evolvtd. It will be a good thlntf. Michigan people, especially upper pen insula residents, have lost thousandj of ddlars through purchasing- worth less t.cka. Put why not g. a step further anj sav the people nomnmore money V Why not pass a pure shoe law? It would help rcduc the cost of living. More people buy shoes than buy Moots and bonds. In a pair of shoes enough leather substitutes can be used by an unscrupulous manufacture. to save him from ten to forty cents, and this samo pair of shoes is sold to the dealer as all leather. It's getting money under false pretenses. It isn't fair to honest manufacturers, dealers and the public. Irfiulsiana has a pure shoe law. It ri-iuiies that part leather shoes be t-ra nde, as such. The law ought to be copied by Michigan. We have gone to Kansas for a "blu'j sky" law; now let's go to Ijulsiana for a pure shoe law. Leaky pasteboard soles where th'-re should be bather are responsi ble for not a few ills of mankind. So let us have shoes labelled so we will know Just what uo arj buying.

Iean illdersJeeve does rod sak for Har- nard alone, but of ih woman's colleges In general. "The dnt of li all Is." she said, 'that college education for women is Just as natural a thing as it is for men; In these mdern days it is just is inevitable. And Its object Is not to teiuli manners or to fit a girl simply to win her degree, r to prejiare her for nny one phase of living or means of livelihcm). but to turn tut well- roundel human beings, who are bet t r trained for the business f modern life because they have had four -ars in a woman's college.

He is especially devoted to the development of waterways, and has fought consistently for the claims of Iiavarla in this respect.

Washington, Jan. 7. The navy will burn 18,000,000 to 24, OOO.OOO gallons of crude, petroleum this year and so rap. Idly Is the consumption, increasing by the addition of new oil burning battle ships that Paymaster General Cowle has Informed the House committee on naval nffulrs that next year probably 20,000,000 gallons would be required. Without sacrificing Mher features, gun protection or cruising radius oil burning battleships could be given 0. speed about two knots greater than n coal burning vessel, which probably would be a dcclslvo fictor in battle. According to Admiral Cowle, how ever, a ship can steam three and one hnlf times as far on cortl us she enn on fuel oil at ati equal eXnse. The price of fuel oil In the navy has increased f.0 per cent within one year.

Women tho were overloaded with debts actually got rid of thciu by tuar rlug some KHir bankrupt. Imprisoned for debt.
