Congressional Union, the Woman's Po
litical Union of New Tork and the
Men's League for Woman Suffrage will
be represented.

Fresh from victory in Illinois, the
euffragists will conduct a celebration
of their triumph and urge Congress by
amendment of the Constitution to ex
tend the ballot to women voters in all
states. Although the formal meetings
of the convention will not open until
Monday the College Women's Associa
tion and the National American Wom
an Suffrage Association will have a

be perfected for the opening of the
suffrage school, which will open under
the auspices of the .Congressional
Union on December 7 immediately at
the close of the convention
Lectures morning, afternoon and ev
ening will be given by suffrage work
ers for the advancement of-their cause.
"The Art of Lobbying," will be expound
ed in six lectures by Mrs. Sherman J.

the Illinois victory. Automobile cam
paigns, street meetings, "How to Reach
the Man Voter," "Suffrage as It Af
fects the Home," and other subjects
will be treated.
Psychological Moment Seised.
Mrs. Robert LaFollette will lecture
on how to reach the rural voter In a
suffrage campaign. The lecturing,
however, will not be confined to wom
en. Dr. Harvey W. Wiley, Senator
Chamberlain. Representative Murdock,
Progressive party leader of the House,
Assistant Secretary Post, of the De
partment of Labor, and other men of
publio life will address the suffragists.
Next week's convention, however,
promises to deal with the internal af
fairs of the organizations; plans for
filling the war chest; new campaigns
and making of converts. It probably
will be the most important suffrage
gathering ever held in the capital. Suf
fragist leaders chose this time for the
rally because they felt the convening
of Congress and President Wilson's
delivery of his first annual message
was the psychological moment for a
concentrated strike for their cause.

PARTY REUNION FORECAST
Senator Jones, of Washington, Says
Republicans Will Get Together.
NORTH YAKIMA, Wash., Nov. 28.
(Special.) "Republicans who I have
seen feel confident that the rank and,
me or me KepuDiican party are going
to get together n the elections next
year and I agree with them," said
United States Senator Jones today be
fore his departure for Washington.
Much will depend on the meeting of
the National committee in Washington
in December. I believe that it will do
something which will result in reunit
ing the voters and that similar action
will follow in this state. The state
organization is certain to do something
to show that the Republican party is
responsive to the progressive thought
of the country.
"I hope that the currency bill will
not be made a party measure by tho
Democrats. The question is not one
that can- properly be made a political
issue. It should be handled by each
man according to his conscience. No
Senator should be bound by his party
affiliations to vote for anything in the
proposed measure which he does not
approve." ,

PERSONALITIES PLAY PART
Fate of Water Board Hangs In Bal
ance and Body May Be Deposed
if New Form Adopted Of
ficers to Be Chosen.
PENDLETON, Or, Nov. 28. (Spe
cial.) On practically the eve of the
municipal election, which will be held
on Monday, December 1, the fight here
is warming up and personalities nave
begun to play an important part.
The principal issue seems to be com
mission form of government. This pro
posed charter was drafted a few
months ago and among the provisions
is one which eliminates the present
Water Board. The contention among
the factions here has devolved about
the matter of retiring this Board and
apparently the contention of opponents
to this plan has made some enemies
for the commission charter.
It is held that to retire this Board
at this time would be to place the
gravity water system, which Is already
under contract, in jeopardy and as
Pendleton has long needed a better
water supply, the supporters of the
present Water Board urge that it be
continued in office by turning down
the commission charter in Mondays
election.
On the other hand those who are
fighting for the commission form of
government contend that it will be an
easy matter to find capable men to
carry out the project and that if tne
city Is to have a commission it should
be free from any Incumbent of the old
system of administration.
The Water Board has been criticised
In the past for alleged unbusinesslike
methods of conducting the department
and today Issued a statement in which
the charges are denied and an itemized
account is given of expenditures on the
work to date of the gravity system at
Thorn Hollow.
The voters will be called ,on also to
elect a Mayor, four Councilmen. s
Treasurer and two Water Commission
ers. If the commission charter carries
these men will hold office but a short
time.

HEROINES OF THE MOVIES
A Wonderful Series of Personal Stories of
the Stars of the Silent Drama Will
..Appear in The Sunday Oregonian
MILLIONS'of persons know motion picture players by sight
and by name, and have gasped in awe at their thrilling
feats on the screen; but they have yet to be told of their
personal lives crowded with dramatic interest and of the per
sonality of the stars of the silent drama.
These articles will tell, in picture and prose, all that is thrilling
and appealing concerning these "movie" heroines. More than
mere beauty is required nerve, fearlessress, resource, quick judg
ment, willingness to take their lives in their hands at a moment's
notice and portray any part or do anything assigned to them
these are some of the requisites the "movie" star must have.
This remarkable series, in The Sunday Oregonian, will include
such great favorites as:
Sunday, Nov. 30. 1 Alice Joyce The "Maude Adams of the
Pictures," who is one of the prettiest women in America, and
one of the most demure. Yet she jumped from a locomotive
on a high bridge into a river risked her life for a picture
with no more qualms than she shows when she appears in a
society role. Outside of business she is a. quiet little home
body. Sunday, Dec. 7. 2 Lillian Wiggins A showgirl who has turned
back the hand of time to the period when the world was
young. She is known as the "Cave Woman," from, the strik
ing parts she portrays in acts picturing events in prehistoric
times. From Broadway to the dawn of life is rather reversing
the order of things, but she does it.
Sunday, Dec. 14. 3 Edith Storey Whose stunts in aeroplanes
. have made thousands of audiences gasp. She is a marvelous
horsewoman and the greatest favorite in cowgirl roles. When
not busy in thrillers she lives in a palace on Riverside Drive.
Sunday, Dec. 21. 1 Mary Tuller Piquant, pretty, charming
Mary, the best loved star of all the players. Who has not
been charmed by the story of "What Happened to Mary,"
which is written about her ? Think of this dainty maid climb
ing down the side of a skyscraper by a rope one of the great
pictures in this particular article shows her in this daring
act. She has more charms off the stage than on, as the story
will show.
Among the other prominent and popular "movie" heroines
who will figure-in this series, will be:
5 Princess Red Wing An Indian Princess, who has become a big
figure in the pictures of the 'plains.
6 Mona Dark Feather She is really a Spaniard, but the movie
world thinks she is an Indian, from the great number of
Indian roles she has appeared in.
7 Clara Kimball Young Most traveled movie star on earth. She
has gone the world over for settings for her acts, has been in
a thousand pictures and has been in every civilized and
uncivilized land. Her adventures are "among 4he most start
ling in the history of the picture world.
8 liable Norman Whose, cleverness is the wonder of the pro
ducers. She rides, swims, shoots, hunts, does everything.
9 Kathlyn Williams The pioneer in the animal acts in tin
movies. Her daring has brought her into trouble many times.
Once she was attacked by a leopard and only saved from
death by a shot that killed the animal in mid-air.
10 Bessie Eyton Another great star in the animal acts.
11 Helen Gardner She writes her own plays, acts them in her
own studio and produces them. She is the only woman who
combines these three branches of the business. She is mak
ing a fortune rapidly.
12 Ruth Roland The tomboy of the movies. She boxes, swims,
fences, plays baseball, drives airship undertakes airy daring
athletic "stunt."
