The Direct Way
By Frances Squire Totter,
When pushed to the wall, ob
jectors to equal suffrage nowadays both
take refuge behind one of two plati
tudes. The first is used too often
by women whose suffrage ia bound
to come, but at present there are
more pressing needs. "Let u get
our schools Improved, and our cities
cleaned up, and then we shall have
time to take up the cause of equal
suffrage." Is not this a survival of
that old vice of womankind indi
rection? What is the use of get-;
ting the power to do something af
ter you have had it done by some
body else? How much harder it is
to get someone else to do it for you
than to do it yourself!
But that Is not the worst. Be
sides being harder,' it Is less effec
tive. It is humiliating. It ia false
to American principles. We edu
cate our men and women alike and
together; on the same terms they
engage in business and bear the
burdens of taxation. Shall we go
back on this whole theory when it
comes to its fundamental applies
tion? The suffrage issue should
not be put off, but it should be
placed first, as making the other is
sues easier and permanent, pd. adv

Why Should a Woman?
Why should a woman be horn, educated married, divorced
and buried under laws made exclvsively by men ?
The right to govern it conferred by the governed and the
governed are uol exclusive! males, the governed are men
and women, for wonen are responsible before the law.
Why, if we desire to be just and fair, should we not allow
the women to exercise what should be an tqaal right with
men.

Free Speech By Foul Mouths
There is a foul-mouthed, indecent element in the city of Port
land niRhtly insulting the decent, law-abiding citizens and
openly reviling the flag. They have sent representatives to
surrounding towns and in the name of free speech denounce the
efforts to remove them from the streets. In the names of our
wives and children we ask your support and vote for No. 370,
Voters' pamphlet.
The Boycot and Picket
The employers of Oregon are not slave drivers, as is claimed
by those who live by the sweat of their deluded victims. This
fact is sel-evident in any part ol the state. The boycott nd the
picket are the representative of a low order of intelligence, seek
ing by fear and bludgeon to force a bad cause. Remove the sys
tem by a vote for No. 368.
