It ia reported that petitions
under the referendum law will
soon be circulated to submit
the question of extending the
right of franchise to women at
the next state election in June
1906. As the petition only re
quires eight per cent of the
votes of the state to submit any
law for the people to vote upon
there will be no difficulty in
securing the required number
and there iauo reason why wo
men should not hare the privi
lege of having a voice in the
laws of the state. -

The chief emphasis at the
Eleventh , Mohonk . Conference
.. on International . Arbitration,
held recently, was put upon the
" proposal, introduced in a short
7 speech by ex-presideut Daniel
0 Oilmen, on the first morning,
and ably seconded on the last
: day , by Chancellor MacCracken
in the strongest paper of the
Conference, that systematic
efforts should be made in schools
and colleges, to substitute for
.. the war spirit a general convic
tion in favor of arbitration.
It was pointed out that aohool

Nand in the school books. It
was suggested that May 18th,
the anniversary of the establish
ment of the Hague Court, should
bo in all States, as in Massa

brated bv addresses and nriza

essays and prise debates, such
as boards of trade have in some
cases provided f ar .
v Dr. MacCracken urged that
in colleges, clubs should be en
couraged representing the goal
far beyond mere arbitration, to
which it leads, "the parliament
of man and federation of the
world," for which the Interpar4
liamentary Union of thirty na
tions is expected to declare in
its World Convention in Brus

Those - Eastern visitors who
are attending the fair and pre
viously entertained the idea that
it rains continually in this state
are not disappointed. 86 far since
the exposition opened there has
been more xaioy days, than
otherwise: w
The more we consider the
contents of a .communication
which appeared in The Observer
Friday evening -rwith; reference
to Eastern' Oregon' demanding
a representation on the supreme
court of the state, the more we
beleiye that such should be the
case. We certainly have a num
ber of jurists that have the abi-
lity, are thoroughly conversant
with the peculiar conditions of
the Eastern portioa of the state.
It is really much more ' import
ant for this portion of the state
to be represented on the supreme
bench than it is for this portton
of the state to furnish the can
didate for governor. j
