FOR FLETCHER'S
C ASTO Rl A
Friday Night is the Date and the
hour at 8:15.
Friday night, in Shively's opera
house, Col. Robt. Miller, of Port
land, is' going to give a political
address, not on single tax,
trusts, abolishing of capital pun
ishment or who you should elect
president of this disturbed old
country.
He's just going to tell you your
wife, mother or sister should have
as much American rights as a
drunken bum, an idiot, a degener,
ate or a plug ugly.
Women are going to be given
the right to vote for this one great
reason: That it IS their right and
they are only prevented by right
of might now. You knor that a
skirts is not a constitutional bar
to having a voice in government,
and you know there is no sound
argument in this big country for
disfranchising them and putting
theiii in a class with Chinamen,
Indians and criminals.
Like all reforms this of wo
man's right comes slow, but it's
sure coming.
It's her right in Washington,
in California, in Idaho, and it's
going to be her right in Oregon.
And the sooner .the better the
better for Oregon, and the worse
for the unfit public official.
You men, come out Friday
night and hear Col. Miller. He
doesn't want all women thore. He
wants you fellows who have the
ballot, you fellows who have
brains and who will play fair if
convinced.
Come out and give hjm a
chance to convince you. Come out
and listen to a talk that will 'make
you feel proud of your wifo,
mother, sister or sweetheart, and
a talk that will fnake you go to the
hallot box with a X for woman's
right to a voice in a country that
she rears the men for.
Gladstone Grants Franchises.

A LAUGHABLE ERROR.
Prisoner Said "Guilty" Grand
Jury Said "Not."
-
Here's a story that was told
around tho court house this week
one of those laughable legal ac
cidents that puts justice in the
Vandeville class for a fewminut
es.
The story goes that a man was
before the grand jury on some
deal with a squaw, and had been
jail many weeks, in considering
the case the grand jury found
there was " no Oregon statute to
cover it, no law violated, hence
they found "not" a true bill. This
case . was reported with three
others, where true bills had been
found, hut the word "not" was
accidenlly ommittod in the read
ing of it, making it an indictment
of the prisoner.
Therefore when he came before
the judge for a plea, he agreed
with the report as read, and
pleaded "guilty"
v hen the documents went
down to clerk Mulvey the error
was noted, and well, tney say
there was some fun.
The prisoner had said ho WAS
guilty; the grand jury had said
he was NOT, so all he bad to do
was run along.
Olds Wins Sujt
In Circuit Court Tuesday Judge
Campbell rendered a decision in
favor of E. 1). Olds of Oak Grove,
for the possession of a spring in
front of his property. Olds started
to dig a well in his yard when H.
C. Krum, V.. L. Cla and A. L.
Thompson, who lived across the
road from Mr. Olds objected to it,
claiming it would ruin the spring.
The spring was leased to the
county, by Olds. Judge Campbell
held that the spring belonged to
Olds and tho county had no right
to lease it to others. Cross '&
Hammond represented Olds.

"I want to offer an amendment to

"Too late," said Mr. McClure with
