HAYES LEADS IN ARGUMENT XVanierona Spmkcra Express Idrnn n to Horr the GlrU In the Home Should ne I'nlil nnil Trented. folutlon of tha domestic servant problem lies In observance of the second commRndment, "Lovo Thy Neighbor as Thyself," according to Mrs. C. W. Hayes, president of tho Omaha Woiniinn club, Who said as much In a discussion before the Omaha Philosophical society yester day afternoon. "Jvllmlnate caste, recognize tho trua worth ot he servant, and the dignity of Jier'work, realise that .her labor Is not degrading ',nur dcsnlsable und you. will have gono a long way toward solution of this great question," said M,rs. Hayes. 8h denounced tho false Ideas of respectability and social standing which make girls prefer work In offices, schools, factories and stores at less net Incomo than could ta earned at housework. She told of the hardships,' humiliations, and misfortune ot the house maid and declarrd'the con ditions willed jnako her occupation shunned could, and should be eliminated "The employer should maintain a Christian attitude toward hor maid," said Mrs. Hayes. "Bho should be kind and friendly and, considerate; the demand for xood, maids exceeds tho supply, but T must also say--that there Is a jrreat scarcity of women who know how pro perly to treat thelr malds.' Sonic nf the 'iitrnn. General discussion followed Mrs. Hayes' address. Among the remarks' made by the dozen or( more speakers were th following: ' . . "It Is not th'o' dfhnestJc-Mrvant-problem, feut tho domestic" strlen, problem. Ono reason that the demand for servant glrlt excit-ds the supply Is that a lot of women wish to employ girls to do tha work they ahould do themselves. In business a man employs help when "there Is more work than ih can do. himself.' It should bV the samp In the business of keeping house. A woman should employ servant ' girls enly when her housework- 1s so heavy ho can't do-It -all Jierself. But. many women as soon aa their husband's. .'r ahlo to pay want to quit their housework and hire It dono so they can Idlo away their time, play cards and engage in society activities." "Women shouldn't employ servants until they have , money enough to pay what they pre worth and giv6 thetn auttabl Rccdminodatlons,' including a room wher they can receive tKelr. .company arid not fee ashamed." v "Servant girls- nro not paid more, even considering board and room, than stenog raphers and choor.'Jcachers4arid,.,factory and shop girls. The sen-ant gfrj has Mltle time to herself, while the others have only certain hours to work. Then, their tlmo .Is their own. , Figures the average servant gjrra wages at H.BQ a week.

Mna a vr, hates. servant girls this much In money and board and room would be willing to pay them $01 cash and let them board and room themselves?" , "Tho family ought to take the servant girt Into tho circle anil, treat her or a member of the family." 'Maybe the girl wouldn't want to be treated as a member of tho family, but instead, simply as a laborer worthy of ber hlro, having cortatn rights thut must be respected. Thero are and always will o clas distinctions. These are desired much by. tho so-called lower classes as' by thoi (So-called higher 'Clans, Htcnographer. clerks and factory girls do not associate socially with the super.

' "It the employer would pay tho servant girl 13' a -week more than the regular wage, she could rent herdclf a room In u boarding hduso or In Homo- prlvnto home ot hor own class and thero receive her company and live just like girls working in factories, stores and offices," AFFAIRS AT SOUTH OMAHA Pilings for City Offices in and Can didates Being Sized Up.

Tho fil ings show two forces at work. Ono Is headed by the republicans and regular democrats and the other Is dominated by tllo Ollllrt gang with nit that the gang can command or coax Into support ing It iioctor, who has valiantly denied his connection with the Glllln gang, showed his hand plainly Saturday night, when John Cissnn, n pool hall keeper and a friend of Hector's filled for tho progres sive nomination for mayor. Martin Swanson, whom no one seemed to hnvo known or hcurd of, was dug up for tho progressive nomination for treasurer. Against Jerry Kltt?orald". who Is supported for tax commissioner by democrats and republicans alike, tha ail Unites brought out Joa Duffy. In tho saloon business for years. A saloon man In tho western section of the city stated Saturday morning thut every effort was being mudo by tho ailllnltes to get some one against Jerry Fitzgerald, allien has fought Kltzgerald for years, smply because Fitzgerald will not play grtng politics and bow down to the llttlo boss ot tho city treasury.

Jerry Howard Is strong with the labor ing men and is known to be honest. Hoc tor has tho name of being undependablo politically, as is shown by' the 'act that he was backed and elected to office a year ago by tho strong Irish vote, which he immediately proceeded to repudiate uy giving nearly all hla appointments elsewhere. Term Uztrnnloii Comes lllh.. U is quite probable that the term ex tension bill will como up tonight or soma time this week. A week ago the re port was circulated that the extension would bo granted In order to get rip ot the opposition to a measure boosted by Iioctor and his charter committee. Then one of the charter committee for aome reason or other decided that an election was the crooer llilnir and the gotur gave up its efforts for the .time. It woa hbpei that no active opposition would material ize at the primaries. When Koutsky and Martin got into the nice for mayor and treasurer, respectively, immediately tho gang got busy, and an effort In o be made to extend the terms at all hazards.

There Is llttlo doubt tnat the old Oror.co army will be mustered out or Incorpor ated In tho regular establishment. But tho rebels in the south, the Zapatistas seem likely to hirnlsh tho administration with the same problem as thoy did the Madero administration. A number of Zapatistas have surrendered, hut Emll lano Zapata himself Is still In, tho field and thousands of his men are continuing tho warfare as outlaws, burnlnir hnrlen. das and ratldlng villages. Coahtilln Ilehcllloiin. There Is a most serious development In tho north, especially In Coahulla, where Vcnustlano Carranza, tho governor, far from recognizing tho Hucrta government, has grown stronger in his opposition each day. In the north and In the south the gov ernment troops arc conceded to bo in control, and it would appear that llttlo time wilt clapso before the rebels are forced to fight nnd of tho outcome, the government Is entirely optimistic. The prcsenco In Mexico City ot Jose Cordova, tho pcrsonat representative of PascUal Orozco, Jr., furnishes concrete evidence of the desire of the rebels ot the north to co-operate with the govern ment. The American colony at a meeting lost night adopted a resolution endorsing American Ambassador Wilson and sug gesting that President-elect Woodrow AVIIson retain tho nmbassador In his present position pending settlement of tho difficulties In Mexico.
