J2. F. lleroy, Ej.t President Oregon Woman Suffrage jMoclationDear Sir: Many thanks for your InvlUtlon to be present at your suffrage gathering on the 8th lost ; but that being impds plble, permit me to tender to yourself and co laborers In the great work of human emanclpa tlon my felicitations for the results already achieved, the high hopes with which you are in spired of an early victory, and for the noble ex ample you have presented to the Mends of wom an's political enfranchisement In every State by your unity of sentiment, oneness of purpose, har mony of action, and patient, determined, perse vering labors for nearly a decade of years. . Oregon Is at the present time, to the friends of equality before the law, the brightest star In the "constellation ;of -American States. .-Multitudes of earnest and anxious friends of the cause that con venes you for the purpose of charting eut a plan of action,, and for the directiori"of y6ur"f6rces"ln the great battleloon to be fouj?lit, will vratch'ydur deliberations and future movements with a mixed feeling of hope and fear. To the new converts to the principles of Woman Suffrage, the position of the cause In Oregon is very hopeful; but to the elder members of the movement the outlook has ts shady aspect-Of the many States from 18C8 to the present time, from Kansas to Colorado, in cluding among others' Nevada, Vermont and Michigan, which have submitted constitutional amendments for the political enfranchisement of the women of their respective States, each failed to secure 'the object desired; and with that fail ure, coupled' with the exhaustion incident to a . protracted and expensive canvass, discouragement ipy Ing the chair oliiopef the weakbecanie disheartened and the active weary, while the strong and self-poised persevered in the good work as opportunity offered ; but seeming Indifference has held the reins for a lengthy season. Oregon, however, mounts this dangerous hlght under more favorable conditions, and her pros pects of success are more and better tharTihose of any of her predecessors. With Her the sentiment In favor of woman's political emancipation has been a growth, and not a sudden creation, gener- ""treayeppef " Kansas, or of the eloquence and personal magnet ism ofa few leading minds, as in Nevada. 4 Oregon Is fortunate indeed in having one of the disfranchised sex as the acknowledged leader of this great reform movement one whose pluck, patience, perseverance, capacity for territorial 16 comotlon, physical endurance and unselfish devo tion to the object of her mission are, only equalled .- by the breadth and grasp of her mind and the marvelous versatility nf tnrntim ; nna whose every inspiration, sentiment or movement Is con . tinuously directed to. and permanently focuwed ' upon that one grand object, to-wlt, the elevation of the race through the iolltIcal emancipation of her sex; one who has an Intuitive perception of the habits or thought and methods of action of the -people with, whom she has. been reared, and is thereby able to skillfully and favorably impress upon their -minds the thoughts in favor of free' T dom that; constantly writ up 1n hr fmllfjil .ainl either by voice or pen, prose or verse, tumorous, fancifuVUidaUo-otlogicalaaJucstadaptwUto , subserve the one grand purpose of her high mis - slon; one who can reanon and instruct without fatiguing, charm by her romance, and criticise without. giving unnecessary pain or offense; one whpHe varied Journeying over many of (the1 Stipes and Territories reminds me of the travels of Saint Paul through Asia Minor with his numerous epls -ties to the churches, the product of his ceaxeiess labors, with this advantage In her favor: that Paul - neither owned nor contrblled a printing rressorJ had her railroad and steamtoat advantages f for . personal locomotion, nor her telegraph, telephone or post office facilities for ready correspondence ; oesides, the spirit or mobocratic violence was greater then and there than now and In Oregon, Jacksonville excepted. " . , , fortunately for this movement, there Is no - dearth of great and -noble women -whowe voices and pens and dally lives are everywhere potential for good; and new candidates for popular favor rapidly augment the grand army of women of In most other States, Is rich in the moral and Intel lectual wealth of her women, who take a lively Interest In the work of the enfranchisement of . their sex ; and this State will not; lag far behind the lead of her web-footed sister, whoso present noble attitude before the people and States of the Federal Union challenges both our pride and ad . miration. .',' ... - Governor Ferklns, In his annual message, rec omme'nded the Legislature of California to abol- Ings, and that Is: Your position Is, both hopeful and -dangerous. Mahy of the representatives of the people will vote for a reference of the question, under strong Influence, to the people, who would not, under the Influence of party, ecclesiastic! or local Influence, vote for the measure Jf there la a prospect of the same becoming a part of the or ganic law, of the Stale. ' Your movement now is In a condition to Invite the open or secret hostility of the cunning, crafty and unscrupulous of all parties, sects ana cliques opposed to the severance of the links of thechatnbf sex domination. From the present tojthe day of election, a continuous agitation should be maintained. The State 'should be thoroughly organized, even to wards, I ft cities and school districts in the pastoral sections, to be under the immediate direction and control of county societies, which should be auxiliary to the State Association. - As-money isIndlspeiiably necessaryto successfully carry forward sTmoVe ment of this magnitude and character, an earnest and systematic effort should be made to. raise funds equal to the iieedsof the occasion," not only from the friends in Oregon, but of those In the several I States., and" ..Territories pf the .Federal Union, as ypur Jlght now assumes the character and importance of a National movement. To thhr end a financial committee should be ap pointed, which should, in an address to the socle ties and" leading friends of Womau Suffrage throughput the Nation, ask for financial coopera tion and assistance, and the eloquent women and friends of the movement should be Invited to as sist you in your convent! onsaiul local gatherings; and fail not to have your friends at the political caucuses, primaries and gatherings everywhere In the State, that no schemes in the interest of the opposition can be secretly sprung upon you. With an earnest hope that your efforts and la bors will crown ayour . movement with victory, I am' Yours fraternally, in haste, ,. -'- Jno. A. Collins. SWEET THINO IN GIRLS. There Is ait Idea common among young girls which ouirht to be combatted by every lntelllirent woman -lt is-that In becoming a housekeeper. and especially II called upon todo the greater part of the work, s -e might lust as well be uneducated : that her acquirements at school, If not unfitting her for it, are or no value, ir this were true, It would Indeed be lamentable; but It Is not true.
