H. Jones, of the Oregon Teiuhfrs'

then took up the subject of tho "New
Course of Study for Oregon." He
dwelt largely on a comparison nf the
old Impractical methods In spelling,
arithmetic and grammnr, as com
pared with the new method of teach
ing the children things of practical
every day life. Ho said: "Hive the
pupil such work as will prepare him
fur life, such work as will prepare
him to llvo better."
Supt. Churchill Informed tho teach
ers that he is now outlining n system
of vocational studies for the high
schools which he hopes will still fur
ther meet the needs of young men
and women nlong the lines of prac
tical training.
lie was followed by Miss Agues
Jones, who took tip the subject of
tho Palmer Method of Writing. She
1b sent here by the Palmer Company,
of Chicago, to Instruct teachers in
tho new method recently adopted by
the Oregon Text Hook Commission.
Miss Jones Is a very fluent speaker
and has her subject well in hand.

returned to Ureen this morning, after
a business visit to this city. Mr.
Heavens took with hi in the partially
completed plans for the two new
buildings to be erected at tho cannery

crops come on. These buildings and
their equipment will practically
triple the capacity of the cannery
there. A large cold storage depart
ment will be Included for holding

temporarily overtaxing the rapacity
of the plant. For several days the
past season the cannery was
"swamped" with a rush of fruit.
Hereafter such surplus will simply be
held In cold storage until It cull be
properly handled.
A new cooking plant will be In
stalled In one of tho new buildings,
and the peeling department will be
given larger quarters, away from the
steam from tho cookers, and the
dampness of the processers.
Ilelt conveyors will transfer the
canned product from one department
to the other, saving largely In both
labor and time in this respect. Plac
ing a side track from the main line
of the S. P. II. It. will be taken up
right away with the railroad officials.
This will save the tedious and expen
sive transfer of goods by tramway,
experienced during the past season.
Several other Improvements are also
to be Included.
Now (hut the cannery Is on nn
established basis, n large area of
vegetables, tomatoes, etc.. will doubt

season. These, In addition to the
fruits ii tl berries will give employ
ment for the cannery for mnny
months. An example of the large
benefits from n cannery In any com
munity was Incidentally mentioned
bv Mr. Heavens. A resident of that
vicinity this year took $200 worth of
the bonds of the company, largely as
an evidence of his faith In the new
institution. During the season he
sold to the cannery $248 worth of
pears which were not In condition to
ship to market direct, nnd which
without the cannery would have been
a total loss, lie thus paid for bis;hi courage and not his terror and

al activities of the militant suffra-
niie. in recent months have served
to obscure to a considerable degree
the solid, snbstuntlal. and really ef
fective campaign work being done in
Lngland by tho largu and growing
army of non-militant advocates of
votes for women. In view of Mrs.
Punkhurst's visit to America, and In
order that American man as well as
women may have an opportunity to
make Intelligent comparison between
the policies, methods and alms of
tho two antagonistic camps, Mrs. Mil
llcent O. Fawcett, leader of the non
milltaiits, has prepared for the Unti
ed Press the following article:
( Hy Mrs. MllUcent Garrison Fawcett,
l.L. H president of the National
1'nloti of Women's Suffrage Socie
ties. Written for tho United
Press).
The National l'nlon of Women's
Suffrage Societies Is tho largest, the
oldest, and as wo believe, the best'
organized suffrage society In the
I'nlted Kingdom. It Is non-party In
character, in the sense that It wel
comes among its members sympathiz
ers with all political parties or with
none. It Is, and nlways has been,
Btrirt in its methods of work. Tho
non-tuilitaut character of the Nation
al I'nloii is a mailer not only of ex
pediency hut also of principle.
We believe that the best method
of promoting the success of our cause
Is tn appeal to what is the highest
and best In man, and not to what la
worst: to arouse his sympathy, his
conscience, his sense or justice and
wonion's vlrtorlos of the pnst fifty

and among all of these violence aa a
method of propaganda has been
monopollied by two societies In Eng
land and one In Ireland. The Na
tional Union, which baa developed
from small beginnings nearly half a
century ago, la not only the largest
ot all these organisations but one of
the moat democratic Institutions In
the I'nlted Kingdom. Every society
la entitled to aend delegates In pro
portion to ita membership to the
General Council, which meeta twice
a year to decide questions of policy
and to elect officers of the Union.
Our methods of work are entirely
constitutional. We endeavor to edu
cate the country to aympathy with
our cause by holding meetings, can
vassing, conducting press campaigns,
and organising courses ot educational
lectures. Bide by aide with our edu
cational campaign we carry on the
political sido of our work Our en
deavor is to transform the sympathy
of the votera Into political pressure
exerted on Ityllvldual members of
an lament, ana on parties, in oraer
to maintain and Increase a majority
In tho House of Commons that ta
committed permanently to the prin
ciple of women s suffrage and that
will be dependable In divisions on
the subject. The latest count gives
our numbers as 43,000 annually sub
scribing members, distributed among
our 449 societies. In' addition to
these we have an auxiliary ot non
subscrlblng but pledged "Friends of
Woman Suffrage" 30,000 strong a
force created out of an adapatlon of
the American plan of enrolling sym
pathizers.
If it had not been for the tremon-
doiis activity and ceaseless educa
tional work carried on by tne non
militant suffrugo societies In the
United Kingdom, I believe that our
movement would have been ruined.
at any rutu for a generation qr more,
by militancy. Hut wo persistently
ask why tho revolutionary riot snil
destruction of a few women should
bo held to Justify the political dis
franchisement of the women of the
world. If a rule of this kind had
been applied to men, not a single
man In uny part ot the globe would
today be entitled to tho exercise of
the parliamentary franchise. Why
apply to women an ogregrously un
just method of exclusion, which men
have never dreamed of appropriating
to themselves.

DAWSON. New Mexico Oe l
Fourteen corpses and 23 llvlnr m.n
were taken at 8 o'clock thla morning
from the Stag Canyon coal mlns,
where nn explosion yesterday en
tombed the entire day shift of minora
estimated at 287. The rescue work
Is proceeding cautiously, owing to
the deadly fumes of gases. The res
cuers are equipped with oxygen hel
mets, and are working short shifts.
The Government rescue car la en route
from Denver. The most of those
caught tn the mine are Mexicans.
Thore are but few Americans, Includ
ing lionerat Superintendent McDsr
niott and the foremen. Judging from
the condition of the mine, which Is
badly wrecked and thick with poison
ous gases, It Is admitted that few
more rescues are likely.
Coroner Si pes estimates that there
are hopelessly Imprisoned 230 min
ers, hut he thought others might be
saved. The mine owners called for
ll the coffins nnd embalming fluid
in rritiKiiin. a throng of weeping,
hysterical men, women and children
surrounded tho mouth of the mine,
begging for news of Imprisoned rela
tives nnd imploring the rescuers to
save thoni.
With a giant fan forcing air Into
tho gas filled mine, the rescuers are
working furiously this afternoon to
reach the 247 miners believed to be
Imprisoned. It Is estimated that 287
were at work In the mine when ths
explosion occurred. Five wero re
moved Immediately and 14 were
brought to the surface today. This
afternoon three survivors were found
and are being cared for at the mine.
It Is ndmitted Hint there la small
lllillhnod of finding any more sur

"The I. ure," the noted "white
sluvo" drama, attracted a very large
audience to the Antler's Wednesday
iiiKhl. and 11 proved eijual to the ad
vance reports as to a vivid portrayal
of certain conditions In large cltloa.
and to a decree in smaller ones. The
company is a strong one, and some
of Hie characters were given with a
very high degree of merit.
The play Is a seruioii. against tho
ignorance of pun-ins. The first act
is devoted to bringing attention to
Hie lassitude of mothers. The secret
servlie agent Is telling the mother
of the girl of tint ways of white
stavern.
Again lu the H-eond act, the slimy
cadet telling u here he trapped his
lust victim says: "I met her at a
Sundav school social, when every
body has an equal show. The super
intendent introdueeil me to her." The
audience gasped at the truthful au
dacity of Hie playwright In making
the first step lu a house of worship,
burning that anywhere Is a recruit
ing station for i e.
The principal trouble with "The
l.uro" is thai it tells the truth of tt
gnat evil so brutally that good peo
ple shudder to bear It. Il Is ably
portraved and has many tnrUUuff
situailtili:!.
