WHY NOT WOMAN'S SUFFRAGE?
(From the Oregon Dally Journal.)
Oregon City, May 16. To the Edi
tor of The Journal In your issue of
the 13th Inst, we discovered an "ad
dress" by Clarence True Wilson, D. D.
against woman's suffrage. While ev
ery citizen is entitled to his opinion,
we are surprised to find a man of Mr.
Wilson's ability and supposed candor
to use such argument as he does to
strengthen his position, He makes a
scientific investigation and a some
what heavy effort to hide the simplic
ity of woman's rights.
You mean to tell us, Mr. Wilson,
that by nature men are the superior
of women? That they are physically,
mentally and morally superior to wo
men? You mean to lead us into be
lieving that husbands, fathers and
brothers are voting their own senti
ments and voice their desires, and at
the same time express the desires and
aspirations of thir wives, mothers and
sisters? What rot! We say to you
that where women are living natural
lives they are physical equals of men
who live naturally. In other words,
where men and women from birth to
manhood and womanhood have grown
in similar surroundings, and have
been given equal exercise of physical
power, they reach equal physical per
fection. Yet this has nothing to do
with the right of suffrage and though
If so you will be
surprised how
little we are ask

you try to make It appear of the great
est importance. And if morally and
mentality give right to governmental
power, then woman is equally entitled
with man to the "duty" and responsi
bility of the ballot-box throughout our
state and nation, for we men must
take a back seat when compared with
our wives, mothers and sisters along
moral lines and mentally we have
nothing to brag of.
You gay you believe woman should
be queen of the home. 'We agree witii
you. But the man should equally be
the king of the home. That is, man
and woman should be jointly and
equally responsible for the bringing
up of the children. The father should
be just as loving, just as kind-hearted,
just as moral, just as affectionate
true, just as fatherly, as the mother
should be motherly and faithful.
You do not speak for this sentiment,
yet it Is difficult to see why a D. D.
would take the opposite view.
You marshal evidence to prove
that where women have the right to
vote their morality Is a mockery and
justice has been forgotten. As if wo
men by their ballot produced these
conditions! What a conclusion for a
learned man! I say to you, that in
no state where women have a right
to vote f corruption and Immorality
as great as where the voice of the
man alone is heard. In nine cases out

tion of women is caused by man, re

virtue seld as cheaply as in those
where manhood suffrage has complete

picture of misfortune you portray of
virtue's sale can be multiplied in
every state of our commonwealth, yes
in every city where men control the
means of living. And you know it.
Although you try to make" these
things appear of the greatest import
ance, they are not after all so essen

of both sexes. We breathe the same

exist without the other. Almlght God
gave every man and every woman a
brain by which each should be equal

exercise for the good of all, whether
it be the home, church or govern
ment. Society will never lift itself
to its highest hopes until it grants -to
Its complete self the full and equal

to womankind her equal rights and
her equal opportunities, with ourselv

flowers, or otherwise decorating the
graves of Comrades, who died in de
fence of their country during the late
rebellion, and whose bodies now lie
in almost every city, village and ham
let churchyard in the land. In this ob
servance no form of ceremony is pre
scribed, but Posts and Comrades will
in their own way arrange such fitting
services and testimonials of respect
as circumstances will permit.
We are organized, comrades as our
Regulations tell us, for the purpose
among other things "of preserving
and strengthening those kind and fra.
ternal feelings which have bound to
gether the soldiers, sailors, and ma
rines who united to suppress the late
rebellion. That can ad more to assure
this result than by cherishing tender
ly the memory of our heroic dead, who
made their . breasts a barricade be
tween our country and its foes? Their
soldier lives were the reveille of free
dom to a race In chains, and in their
deaths the tattoo of rebellious tyrrany
in arms. We should guard their graves
with sacred vigilance. All that the
consecrated wealth and taste of the
nation can add to their adornmem and
security is but a fitting tribute to the
memory of her slain defenders. Let
no wanton foot tread rudely on Buch
hallowed grounds. Let pleasant paths
invite the coming and going of such
reverent visitors and fond mourners.
Let no vandalism of avarice neglect,
no ravages of time testify to the pres
ent or to the coming gererations that
we have forgotten as a people the
cost of a free and undivided republic.
If other eyes grow dull and other
hands slack, and other hearts cold In
the solemn trust, ours shall keep it
well as long as the light and warmth
of life remain to us.
Let us then, at the appointed time,
gather around their sacred remains,
and garland the passionless mounds
above them with the choicest flowers
of spring-time; let us raise above
them the dear old flag they saved
from dishonor; let us in this solemn
presence renew our pledges to aid and
assist those whom they have left
among us, a sacred charge upon a na
tion's gratitude, the soldier's and
sailor's widow and orphan.

8IMPLE WASH CURES ECZEMA.
Itching, Burning 8kln Disease Routed
Without Us of Injurious Drugs.
Great Inventors often have been
praised for surrendering the secrets
of their discoveries. Practically the
same thing happens In the medical
world In the case of Dr. Decatur D.
Dennis, the eminent skin specialist,
of Chicago,
Dr. Dennis, In his own office prac
tice, discovered that pure vegetable
oil of wlntergreen, properly mixed
with other simple remedies was prac
tically a sure specific for Eczema,
psoriasis, barber's Itch, salt rheum,
and other itching skin diseases. But
the oil of wlntergreen alone was
found ineffective. It required other
mild Ingredients such as glycerine and
thymol compounded with the winter
green, to produce the real eczema cure.
This compounded D. D. D. Prescrip
tion positively takes away the Itch at
once the instant it is applied to the
skin. This vegetable liquid does
away with deleterious drugs so long
used in an attempt to doctor the blood,
whereas modern science has deter
mined that eczema Is first and all the
time a skin disease.
If you want to know more about the
merits of D. D. D. Prescription, call
at our store. We vouch for this rem.
