The Sioux City firm has up an odd
standard for its girl stenographers They
_must be red-headed, must wear short
skirts and must not use perfumery. Itis
~asserted by a representative of the firm
" that red-headed girls are more careful and
better workers than any other kind, that
the short-skirted girl moves quicker and
is more easily pleased than the gi-l in the
long skirt, and that the use of perfumery
is a pretty sure indication that a girl is
“stuck on herself’, and will spend too
much time before the looking glass.

Judge Parker’s unequivocai declaration
in favor of one term has called serious at
tion tu the advisability of the one term
restriction. It is not a new question in
American politics, as Charles Sumner by
resolution proposed a constitutional
amendment to that effect. It was aimed
at grant. Mr. C"’e‘veland also at one time
favored the ome-term idea, but not so
positively as Judge Parker and was pre
vailed upon to accept another. The posi
tion of Judge Parkeron this question may
or may not be a vote-getter, but it has a
least set the peovle. thinking.”

The Louisville Courier-Journal (Dem.)
says: Tom Watson says Roosevelt is a
better man than Parker. Joe Cannon,
Spesker of the House of Representatives,
who placed the hand of the negro boy
into the hand of the white girl, and
had them, hands joined, to pose as the
closing scene of the Roosevelt convention,
says the same thing, MrsW. H. Felton,
the most brilliant woman of the South,
touched with a feeling of cqmpassion for
her sex, insecure at home, on the farm
or along the highways, and speaking for
every farmer’s wife in the cotton states,
declares she prefers Parker to Roosevelt.
Tom Watson says he prefers Roosevelt to
Parker. Cobot Lodge, who inserted the
negro plank in the Republican platform,
says the same thing, Tom Watson says
hé does not fear the ‘‘nigger-in-the-wood
pile.” Every farmers wife in the cotton
belt of the South says she does. Tom |
Watson says he prefers Roosevelt to Par
ker Booker Washington says the same
thing.
