Tha annual meeting of (he Oregon
Society for the Emancipation of India
from Caate Slavery was held last
Wednesday evening. After reading the
annual reports, the following officials
were elected: President, Judge Charlea
B. Bellinger; first vice-president. Judge
Lionel R. Webster; second vine-president,
Mrs. O. N. Denny, and secretary
treasurer. William HT Gal va nl. The of
ficers elected, with Judge Seneca Smith,
A. C. Going and Mrs. Preston Smith,
will constitute the executive board of
the Oregon society for the year.
This was the first annual masting of
the friends of Swaml Ram, tha Hindu
monk and high priest and former pro
fessor of natural philosophy In tha Uni
versity of Punjab, east India. The
movement was inaugurated here Just a
year ago, la response to the earnest ap
peal of Swaml Ram, with the one ob
ject In View of aiding tha representative
men of India to redeem their land from
tha terrible curse of caste slavery. The
society secured from India two high
caste Hindus, who are now maintained
at tha Oregon Agricultural college at
Corvallla. Upon completing their atudles
they will return and engage In this great
work under the direction of the general
Indian committee. Similar efforts are
to be Inaugurated In other states, as
well aa In other countries. In addition
to the Income of tha society from Its
membership, it received during the year
One contribution of 1110 from Mrs
Howard of Chicago and one from a real-
dent of thla city amounting to t?0. Tha
Oregon society Is very desirous of In
creasing its work, which Is on an abso
lutely non-sectarian basis, and any con
tribution sent to any of the offlcera or
members will be gratefully acknowl
edged and accounted for.
Is Portland standing loyally by tha
only feature of the fair that, in a hun
dred years to come, will answer the
question, what she did to commemorate
the first centennial of the Lewis and
Clark expedition the Sacajawatt Maine.
Staff and mortar and tinseled building
will bo destroyed and gotten out of alght
as aoon as possible, sunken gardens may
be filled for building lots, the colonnades
and., esplanades will give way to th
march of time, and the place that once
knew all this will know It no more, and
that Inside Of a year or two. But the
bronse statue, made from metal taken
from the old Oregon country, sent to the
bronse foundry In the far east and mod
eled Into a beautiful figure will, through
all the ages to come, stand a monument
to the pioneer mother of Oregon and a
testimonial to the women of 1905, and
forever, with her uplifted arm, point
civilisation to the orient ar ahe pointed
Lewis and Clark to the Pacific coast
Again, we ask, Is Portland doing her
part tp make this feature a success?
Evidently not when the statement is
made, and can be verified, that Portland
haa only contributed to this part of the
exposition 1215, not including two en
tertainments which netted the associa
tion 8(. Of this 21S one woman con
tributed i i no, so It will be seen how
small the general contributions have
been. ijome pledges have been given
which can-he- converted into money, but
even then the amount will not be large.
It has not been the policy of the women
who have the matter In charge to solicit,
as they feel that the people of the city
should deem It a privilege lo contribute
unsolicited, and they Intend to make no
canvass.
The statue, however, will be erected.
When the association was formed a half
dosen interested women contributed
enough money to buy stationery and
postage and get a little printing done,
and the thing started. This was a year
and a half ago. Without asking directly
for money, but by simply presenting the
claims of Sacajawea for recognition all
over the country In a little booklet and
by" the recognition of her services by the
National Council of Red Men at St. Jo
seph, Mo., last September, presented to
them by L B. Reeder of Portland, the
work has become widely known. It has
been spoken of In complimentary terms
by over 600 of the met newspapers In
the United States editorially and as
news, and the appended list of towns
and states that have been moved to
send contributions will prove how gen
eral haa been the Interest awakened
outside of Portland.
Tha towns through the state that
have dona anything have done more In
proportion than Portland, but they are
all too few and it begins to look as
though the money to erect thla statue
Is coming from outside the state. Know
ing the amount Portland has contributed
and the few towns of the state, what
proportion has come from abroad will
be known when It Is stated that nearly
half the required amount has been,
raised.
In figuring up the. donatlona from
Portland, however, wa must not over
look the fact that the copper for the
bronse has been donated by Dr. and Mrs.
H. W. Coe from their mine at Spirit
lake, Washington.
Souvenir spoons will soon be on sale
made from the same copper, tha pro
ceeds of which will also go to the
statue fund A handsome official pic
ture of the statue will soon be on the
market to awell the revenue, but all
this does not alter the fact that Port
land and Oregon are leaving other atatea
to pay their patriotic debt to thla wo
man, and when Portland gives In pro
portion to other places, those in charge
of the movement say, the anxiety and
uncertainty that haa attended the effort
win ds at an ena.
