There is nothing representative for a candidate to have paid work ers at a good stiff price through out the county rounding .up the vote. It has been done so often till the evil of it is eprecepti ble and the reaction has set in against it. There can absolutely be no merit or qualification in this sys tem. A very light vote was polled here Saturday and throughout the other 27 precincits in the county. A VISION OF THE NEW HOUSE MAID. Hundreds of young white girls are helping in the west to solve the housework problem. It is good to see that the ser vant problem is now being ap proached with' the expectation of solving it. Men and women are beginning to realize that it is a subject worthy of thought. This is not altogether enw. There have always been kind-hearted and considerate mistresses, who hav e conscientiously tried to make the sitaution tolerable for their em ployes ; there have also been tho.-e who have injudiciously heaped un asked favors upon them to con cilate them, offering sweets to make the medicine less bitter. lint, alter all, the question is ii"t so much how to reconcile girls to an unpleasant situation, but. how can we make the situation one that will appeal to girls who must make their living? Suppose we give up the old problem, which exacts resigantion iron both mis tress and maid to an outgrown system, and create a new prob lem, of which the keynote is hope. How can we bring these young girls in our schools, who are now being trained in the mysteries of housework, to realize the fact that there are good situations await ing them when they can show a diploma proving their proticiency ? As this is a new problem, we must first give them a new title. Domestics? Household workers? The latter is a little clumsy, but it has agreeable sound. Someone may be able to suggest a better word. Let us throw overboard everything which brings to our minds the thought of a drudge, and conjure up a vision of an in telligent young girl, self-respecting, well-trained in household du ties, employed during eight hours of the day, and returning to her home at night. Is there anything unreasonable in his vision? ( ne of its chief beauties i that there are always little girls growing up to take the places of the big ones who mar ry. There will be no scarcity of workers. Why should a girl be kept in the house at night, occu pying a valuable room, when all of the necessary work of the .or dinary apartment can be proper ly accomplished in eight hours? THE PRIMMER. (AH Rights Reserved. 1 Who is that little man that is talking -so loud? That is the boss. What is a boss? There i- more than one kind of. boss. Your pa pa is a boss, he makes you do things that you know are not right, but you have to do what he says or your papa will get angry and he may have to whip you, which will hi rt him a great deal. The boss whom you now see is the mart who tells the poor ignor ant voters how to vote. He is a very kind and g(xd man. He lays awake at night and picks out the good 'men to run for office, be cause he is. very careful that the - men he picks are good men and honest men or otherwise they might do things that the boss does not want them to do. The boss sometimes promises to pay the good men that run for office as he wants to be sure that they do as he tells them. Is the boss not a very nice man? Yes, he is a very nice and genteel man and he is al ways looking out for the best things. Would you like to be a boss? No, I do not think that I could be a boss as I am not a yery good or else they will get into trouble. ' What becomes of the dead bosses? They always go to ; Heaven. If you are very nice and kind maybe you can , be a j boss when you grow up and then you can whip your papa. Would not . - that be nice? If your mama does not do as you tell her you icould whip her also and then you would ' be sure enough boss. -A. B. C. AMERICANS IN MEXICO ; MEXICANS HERE. The manner in which Huerta's representatives sent to the media tion court have been received, en ttertained and honored upon their arrival at the capital of the Unit ed States may not convince' the Mexicans either our good will or of our sincere purpose. They may think that we merely dissemble with our cordial reception while we dig pitfalls and lay traps for them. Kut they cannot fail to distin guish the sahrp cntrast, what ever the reason for it. between the treatment of Mexicans in the United States and Americans in Mexico. Here not only were t'le Huerta envoys wajmly welcomed as official emisasries, but Mexican residents of the United States were as secure in their safety and free in their privileges as our own Americans. The difference in national atti tude and action will not count for anything with Inert., or his pen- pe in 'Mexico. In their desperate circumstances they are not likely to give thought to anything of the kind, lint it will be very strange if Huerta's envoys do not realize the significance of what it mcan for a Mexican of any de urce W be in the United Stales as against what it means for an Amcricii l !e in Mexico at tiiis time of crisis vvhile the two gov ernments stand with hands their sword's hilts. It will be very extraordinarv if the envoys do not conclude whether or not they are aide ti govern themselves by their on lctioiis--mat mere could .u1 nothing more hopeless than foi them in the mediation proceed ni" In provoke tin- Nation out of its considerate restraint int blows against Mexico.
