"I WONDER IF IT'S REALLY BECOMING V Week's Clearest Carto on, by Tring. in the New York Press. WOMEN BESIEGE NATIONAL CAPITOL, SEEKING SUFFRAGE Present Arguments Before Senate and House Committees to Show Wh) They Should Be Allowed to Vote. Oklahoma's Senator Makes Stirring Speech In Eulogy of the Sex Their Influ cnce Is Needed, He Declares, to Balance the Saloon Element, Which He Says Caused the Defeat of Suffrage in Oklahoma. Washington, D. C. Almost 100 suffragists besieged the Capitol in search of the ballot. They argued be fore the House Committee on Ju diciary, and then descended on the Senate Committee on Woman Suf frage. For three hours they talked. Finally they were shooed from the Marble Room of the Senate by the Sergeant-at-Arms, for it was visibly Impossible for the Senate to deal in profounditles while the chatter from across the hall made lis way through the swing doors. As a result of the visit the women relieved themselves of much argu ment as to why they should be per mitted to vote. They also found much to criticise In the furnishings of the Marble Room. Likewise they went away with well-conceived ideas of certain members of Congress. The estimates of public men, which are practically unanimous, were polled. They follow: Senator Clay "Perfectly dear." Senator Johnston "8weet old thing." Senator Beverldge "Nasty, con ceited young upstart." 'Senator Burkett "Rude West erner." Senator Wetmore "Brute." Senator Owen "Dear old darling." Representative Jenkins "Just a dear." There were other expressions, but these cover the principal actors In the day's proceedings. Incidentally, It might be Bald that Senators Bev erldge, Burkett and Wetmore, who are members of the Committee on Woman Suffrage, were not present to face the music. Senator Owen was emphatically present, for he made Dne of his impassioned speeches and HUed the atmosphere with eloquence for the women at the hearing in the House committee room. It was an imposing crowd that took possession of the House and Sen ate. Mrs. Carrie Chapman Catt, of New York, the international president of the Suffragists' Association, and the Rev. Anna Howard Shaw, of Philadelphia, president of the Ameri can Suffragists, led the procession. When they reached the Marble Room they found Senator Clay awaiting them. He wore Senatorial hablla ments and a strained smile. "Ladles," he said, and bowed low as they streamed Into the room. Mrs. Catt denounced the lack of attendance of members of the com mittee. "Never since we have been coming here," she said, "have there been more than two or three Senators pres ent to hear us." Her indignation was contagious. Senator Clay was saved by the timely arrival of 8enator Johnston, who ambled in with the air of a martyr going to the stake. "What we women are asking for," aid Mrs. Catt, "is every bit as con stitutional as the enfranchisement of the negro. You don't want us to go to the negro and beg him to give us a voice in this free Government, do you? Then give us some hope of Congressional action looking toward a constitutional amendment." Senator Clay looked Impressed with the solemnity of the declaration. Un der the table he held tightly to the coattalls of Johnston, who showed signs of bolting. Clay balked his attempt at flight. When the Senate was about to con vene. Senator Clay sought to usher the suffragists out in true Southern style. He failed. Then 8ergeaut-at-Arms Ransdell wan called. He did Ms best to be tactful, but hla name really should be added to the poll list, for every one of the visitors said he was "perfectly horrid." The hearing before the House Com mlttee n Judiciary was in charge of Mrs. Harriet Taylor Upton, of Ohio Among the speakers were Miss Emmt Gillette, of Washington; Mrs. Catt Mis. Richard W. Fitzgerald, of Mas sachusetts; Senator Owen, Miss Ros Sullivan, of Utah; Mrs. Mary E Cralgle, of New York; Mrs. Ida Por ter Boyer, of Pennsylvania, and Mlsi Gordon, of Louisiana. Mrs. Upton Introduced the suf fragists with the remark that she wai not afraid of the Judiciary Committee or anybody else. She was provided with a bell which she rang when sh thought the speakers had consumed enough time. The first time it rang one or two of the women looked around in dismay. Once or twice th bell had to be rung with great in sistence before the enthused oratoi would yield to another. Mrs. Carrie Chapman Catt opened the arguments by saying that Greal Britain had done more for its women in the suffrage line than has tht United States; that South Africa and Canada had given the right of munic ipal suffrage to their women, whllt Norway and Denmark and the othei Scandinavian countries had giver every suffrage right to their women The next speaker was Senator Rob ert Owen, of Oklahoma, who made a strong speech for woman suffrage. "Every good principle I have learned," he said, "everything ol good morals and good manners I re ceived from a woman. And I have observed in history that Just as high as is the position given to women in a nation Just so surely will that na tion rise to distinction and fame. "I give my adherence to this cause with enthusiasm and with rellglout zeal. I know when I serve the women I serve God. I know It is a Just cause because I have studied It and I have studied It deeply. As the women are so Is the nation. "When there are 6,000,000 women earning their living, outside of do mestic service, with what face, gentle men of the committee, do you refuse this prayer of the women? Suffrage Is the only thing that would give women n fair compensation for their labor. And one way the State would, benefit Is the fact that the women's vote, as a rule, would he aenlnat if. hjruptlon. "Some tell us that only the bad women would vote. I answer this by pointing out to you that there are so many more good women than bad in the world. The statistics prove this. The records of our peni tentiaries prove it. And I love the women's cause for the enemies it has made. Its enemies are the keepers of saloons and brothels. The saloon element always fights woman suf frage. It was the saloon element that prevented the women being given the suffrage by the Oklahoma constitutional convention." Representative Alexander, of New York, interrupted to say that a great objection to woman suffrage would be that the Immigrant women coming Into the United States would be made voters. "The immigrant men," replied Mr. Owen, "are educated in the saloon. Their women would neutralize this saloon vote and this would benefit the State. Besides, they are the women who will bear our future citi zens. Shall we bring up the mothers of our citizens in the eternal belief that tbey are a thing apart from oar Government and have no part In it?" Senator Owen at tbe conclusion of hla address was given an ovation by the women present. At the conclusion of tbe hearing Mrs. Upton asked tbe Judiciary Com mittee if it could not make a favor able report on the Joint resolution, to make an unfavorable one ao that the matter might be debated on the floor of the House.

By GEORGE FREDERIC STRATT0N. In the great shops of a well-ltnown electrical company are some threo hundred young men, clad In work men's garments, assembling small apparatus and testing dynamos, transformers, railway motors and lighting appliances of every descrip tion. These men have come from uni versities, colleges and technical schools, not only in this country, but In all quarters of tbe civilized world. And they are supplementing the theo ries upon which they have spent years of study with the admirable practice to be obtained In the finely equipped shops and the variety of apparatus manufactured. This company has always hnd an eye to the future. Its etcellent ap prentice system Is devised with a view to producing a company of ex pert workmen, from which may be drawn the future foremen, superin tendents and executive heads of de partments. Its student course is to provide for its future need of engi neers on all classes of apparatus and equipment; to take charge of foreign and domestic Installations of groat power and lighting plants: to be come managers of new shops, de signers of new machinery or com mercial managers and assistants. The qualifications necessary for a man entering on this student course are that he should have graduated from some college or technical school. Graduates from several of the cor respondence schools (approved by the company) are also admitted. The man who enters, however, is not estimated according to his col lege attainments. All start on the same basis and at the same nominal salary. The estimation and advance ment come upon a demonstration of tho quality of a man's work In the shops; upon his steadiness and re liability; his quickness In seeing errors or defects: his aptitude at grasping and solving them. The course Is for a period of four years, but no written agreement to this effect Is required by the com pany. And It must be understood that the four years consist of fifty- two weeks each, excepting possibly two weeks for vacation each Bum mer. In fact, the student Is subject to exactly the same discipline and shop routine as the ordinary work man. His hours are the same from 7 a. m. to 6 p. m. There is no strictly defined routine of practice on this course. The gen eral principle Is to give the young man the opportunity to work some time In each department, and so fa-, miliarize himself with every type of apparatus manufactured. He usu ally commences by assembling small motors and becoming familiar with every detail of the machine. He then works for a period at testing genera tors, transformers, arc lamps, meters, etc., respectively, thus becoming ac quainted with the nature and use of testing and measuring instruments, and also with tho wonderful labor saving devices and the accuracy of machine tools with which tho shops abound. Ho sees the methods of the great steel and Iron foundries, and observes tbe materials used In building up the great turbo-generators. He is ex pected to acquaint himself with the methods of constructing and winding armatures and field colls; the various kinds of insulators; and the details and uses of switches, switchboards, meters and controllers. Tho work is by no means a sine cure. At much of it dirt, grease and real labor are encountered by these students as by any mechanic in the shops. On transformer tests and tests of special apparatus, the work necessarily continues, fre quently, for as long as thirty-six hours at a stretch; and it speaks well for these men that such work Is rare ly shirked. The dropping of one of these Btudents for inefficiency or in attention is of the rarest occurrence. In the course of from two to three years it all depends upon nie mari'B brightness he will find his shop work more or less frequently broken by calls to go outside; to report on disaster to some outside plant; to examine, and probably adjust, ma chines which are working improper ly; or to direct a crew of workmen installing new machinery. He will also now come more In contact with the prominent engi neers, and, if his choice so lies, may bo taken into some special depart ment. This specializing is encouraged. Electrical problems have become so complex and diverse that the man who achieves the greatest amount of usefulness and success Is, undoubted ly, the one who devotes his energies and abilities to some particular Hue; and ample opportunity Is afforded to students in this course to confine their attention to any one depart ment for which they show unusual ability or aptitude. In the engineers' departments he will have the opportunity of confin ing himself altogether to the manu facturing and designing details, or he can brunch oft onto the commer cial side, with a view to qualifying himself for work In some one of the company's many district or forelgu offices. The salesman of electrical apparatus is much more than an ordi nary commercial agent. He is a con sulting engineer. He ust be thor oughly conversant with the construc tion and assembling of machines; with their capacities under greatly varying conditions; must have apti tude for understanding and explain ing peculiar conditions, with a view to the designing of special apparatus to meet them. Many of the students are In special training for this de partment, while others are devoting themselves to the acquirement of a thorough knowledgo of electrical practice. Many high authorities are Insis tent upon the value of some com meiclal training tor every engineer. Dr. Louis Bell, in a recent Inter view, said: "Sometimes nay, often it Is a greater problem for an engineer to keep the cost of u plant or some of tbe apparatus) within a given appro priation than it is to solve the engi neering difficulties. And that It where a young engineer should he carefully trainod, commercially, so that he will always avoid the risk ol seriously Injuring his newly-acquired reputation by designing something In which the demand of solidity and efficiency Is sacrificed to that of cost He should learn to say 'No!' wher the Insidious suggestion is mado tr cut down weight here or powei there." The advantage of this practical training .tin- acquired famlllarit) with tho nctual conditions of work ing apparatus ns supplenientory tc the preliminary theoretical training aro incalculable. The student w.hc Is thoughtful, attentive and am bltlous, acquires by this method the qualities which must be combined Ir order to make tho thorough engineer. Nerve and resourcefulness with ma chinery In times of emergency presence of mind, tact and ability tc handle men: business knowledge and executive capacity all this Is requi site; and practice and practice alone can give It. In addition to this practice, the embryo engineers have ample oppor tunity of keeping abreast of the times on theoretical lines, and In touch with the rapid advancement and changes in electrical science. A spec ial engineering organization or club is designed for this purpose. Meet ings are held monthly, at which lec tures nnd addresses upon technical subjects ori delivered by speakers of nndoubted qualification, followed by discussions on the subject. This so ciety also arranges and carries out visits to other plants of unusual In terest, where the Installation nnd operation of power for generating purposes, and of special apparatus, may be fully Inspected and dis cussed. Mr. H. W. Buck, in an article In the Scientific American says: "In a stationary condition of art, a man with practical experience only may become very familiar with all the existing types of apparatus and, knowing their applications, may qualify, to an extent, ns an engineer. But the extremely rapid growth of electric practice makes rapid change in the construction and operation of electrical machin ery. The man of practice only Is apt to fall behind; while the man with a knowledge of the theories and the formulas with a mind trained to study and deductions follows up the changes without clfflculty, and 1b frequently one of the men to initiate such changes." The opportunities ahead of these students are most promising. In the far Indies graduates of this training are harnessing the sacred streams and generating and conveying power and light hundreds of miles, over a coun try and against difficulties unknown here, and unforeseen there, until met nnd conquered. Up toward tho North Pole, install ing arc lights to run through a six months' night; in distant Japan, operating railways for the gentle Oriental; stringing the canons of the Rockies with transmission lines; put ting the collar on the mighty Niag ara and bringing a half million horse power Into productive subjection everywhere you find them, meeting and battling with problems and diffi culties, overcoming them, and In thus overcoming them, becoming stronger and more Invincible themselves. -That's where these young men are going from the student course. AH of them will become useful; many of them will acquire some degree of eminence; perhaps one hero or there will rise to International fame an Edison, a Thomson or a Steinmetz. In the electrical field the pace Is swift the marvelous of to-day is the commonplace of to-morrow. Peculiar characteristics or abilities in certain lines will find their opportunity In this industry, always provided they are coupled with the qualities which aro requisite to success anywhere vigor, pluck, patience and good sense. A good general education, supplemented by a good technical education, nnd followed by the prac tice obtained among the machinery and apparatus of a great manufac turing corporation, comprises the nursery and training ground trom which many of the future giants of electrical science and achievement will undoubtedly emerge.
