EQUAL SUFFRAGE
(Continued from page 1)
largely the country immorality. Mrs.
Senn gave a clever satire of the anti
suffragette speaker, that won largt
applause Dr. Luther Dyott of Port
land spoke on the relation of suffrage
to democracy and affirmed that suf
frage, like nature's frocks, should
know no sex. Mrs. Eara Bard Field
Ehrgott closed the program with a
brief panoramic view of the awaken
ing of women of which suffrage, she
declared, was only a local expression.
She asserted that the withholding of
the ballot from women, prevented the
application to society of its most ben
eficial force.
Miss Boswell of New York, talked
at the afternoon program on the suf
frage movement, taking occasion to
criticize the school system in Panama,
which she investigated for the govern
ment a few years ago. She gave an
intensely interesting talk setting forth
woman's progress in this country, ad
apting her talk especially to the in
dustrial conditions in America today,
factory labor, short hours for women
labor, etc., and argued that through
the votes for women movement these
conditions would be effectively rem-
euieu. lvirs. oaran j&vans men caneu
for the opposition or the "antis" and
Dr. Wilson heroically responded to
the call, laying especial stress on the
old idea that "woman's sphere is the
home not the ballot." Miss Giesha
Breckenridge followed Dr. Wilson,
again taking up the banner of the suf
fragists. Miss Breckenridge, a dele
gate from Kentucky, answered the old
argument that women should not vote
because they cannot fight, and then
responded to . the counter-argument
tha'. women fight too much, particular
ly in Eng'and and she struck a hap
py medium for aer hearers ani .1' 'he
women seem--' m cfree that the wo
men fought neither too much nor too
little Miss B.-ecirenridge toid of the
suffrage inovemert in Kentucky and
pointej oir particularly the improve
mem in the sclool system of bar own
slate, afier s.omen were amoved to
vote
The evening program was in charge
of Mrs. Unruh of the state W. C. T. U.
A good musical program preceded the
lecture of Mrs. Florence Atkins of
Nashville, Tenn., on "temperance."
Another feature of the afternoon
was the able discourse of Judge Cor
liss of Portland before the Shakes
peare club at 4 p. m. on "King Lear."
Professor Bassett gave an interesting
talk at the same hour on "A Compar
ison of Shakespeare's Men." The
Club gives today a picnic luncheon for
a large number of their friends inter
ested in the Shakespeare study.
The program today follows:

Translated literally from the He

Copyright. 1912. by Associated Lit

At fifty years of age and after work
Ing hard for thirty of them Amos
Scheruierborn found himself worth less
than $f(X).
Mr. Schermerborn bad never spent
much time thinking and planning ot
things outside bis dally work. He was
a carpenter, and that settled that. He
could earn $2.50' per day when he had
work, and that settled that. He never
allowed himself to have dreams ot
riches and ease. Perhaps tt was for
this reason and because be was no
talker and didn't mix up with politics
that be came to be looked upon as a
rather dull man.
On his fiftieth birthday the carpen
ter. being out of work, sauntered off
into the woods and sat down to have
bis first real think. Hard work was
already beginning to tell on him, and
after about five years more what was
to become of himV He was trightened
at the thought. When he could do
longer earn wages It must be the poor
house for him, as he bad no relatives
to help him out. For three long hours
Amos kept bis brains at work, and as
be walked back to the village people
noticed a change In him. As Deacon
Riker afterward remarked:
"Why, he looked an altogether dif
ferent man to me, and be talked right
up as brisk as a lighting rod man. 1
couldn't help but wonder if be had
found a dollar in the road."
Next day Amos Schermerborn packed
his clothes in a satchel and headed for
a village thirty miles away. He enter
ed it on the second day. ' There bad
been two or three recent robberies,
and the constables were on the alert.
A mile from the village and directly
In front of a farmer's barn Amos sat
down to rest. The. farmer saw him
and came out and asked questions and
finally ordered him to move on and
helped him with a kick. He did more.
He followed the wayfarer into the vil
lage and pointed him out as a sus
picious person and had him arrested.
Amos made no kick and was arraign
ed, convicted and sent to jail for thirty
days with great celerity. . The con
stable slapped his moutb when be
started to protest, the judge said be
looked like an unhung villain, and the
jailer slammed him into a cell with so
much violence that he was throwD
down and had a finger broken.
Amos Schermerborn served his thirty
days in jail and was- then warned to
leave town within half an .hour. He
made straight for the office of a law
yer instead, and before night there was
something to be talked of. The farmer
who had kicked him was arrested for
assault and battery, the constable who
had run him in was arrestedvfor false
imprisonment, the judge got a sum
mons for defamation of character, and
the jailer was arrested on the same
charge as the farmet.
The judge bad been a Judge for
fifteen years, and he had always
thought it within his province to call
a prisoner a son of a gun or any other
old thing he happened to think of.
He now learned that his legal duties
ceased with pronouncing sentence. He
had defamed the character of a good
man, and be bad to pay for it. Amos
bad $250 in his hind pocket when be
moved on, and be hadn't put In an
hour at hard work. He had another
village In mind, and he beaded for it
It was a farmer again that gave him
away. He was plodding along the
dusty road when accosted with:
"Here, you tramp, don't you want a
few days' work?"
"How much a day?"
"Fifty cents and board."
"I can do better."
"Oh. you can? What ails you Is that
yon don't want work at any price.
Sour kind just want to tramp and beg.
By John, tbere ought to.be a jail big
enough to hold you all!"
"I am not a tramp." mildly replied
Amos.
' "Oh, you are a gentleman, mebbe!" -
"Well, 1 can pay my way."
And the carpenter dug down and
brought out bis roll and held it up to
view and walked off.
"Gosh' exclaimed the farmer to
himself. "But. he's a highway robber
or 1 never saw one! Like enough be
broke Into a house last night Well, I'll
settle bis hash mighty sudden!"
And be went Into the bouse and tele
phoned the constable at the village that
there was a suspicious character bead
ed that way, and Amos was collared as
soon as be showed up. He refused to
give his name or to tell where be got
the money found on him. The charge
put against him was suspected rob
bery, and he was sent to Jail and held
for ten days In hopes his victim might
be beard from. At the end of that time
be was sentenced for ten days for be
ing a vagabond.
When bis sentence was np It was a
call on a lawyer again. The defend
ants could prove nothing whatever
against the plaintiff when It came to a
showdown, while be could show that
the three of them bad acted illegally
and that be bad a fourth case against
the farmer. Mr. Schermerborn got $500
for bis share and walked on to play the
Same game elsewhere. When he re
turned to bis home Deacon Rider Was
the first man to shake hands with him
and to say:
"Lordy, nu bow people can be de
ceived In a man! We never took you
to be more than halt baked, and bere
you have been npsptrin three different
states and gettln' ready to run tor the
presidency!''
At r-ier word.
"Why do you not come to me .for
advice any more?" said the medium to
her former regular customer.
"Well." said he. "the last time I was
there you told me that If 1 wished to
save enough to get married on 1 must
stop spending money foolishly, and I
took you at your word." New York

Trees In Coal Mines.
It is a fairly common thing to find in

The Loyal Order of Moose 961 will
stampede- to Portland at 7:30 this ev
ening on their special car which has
been tastefully decorated with the col
ors of the order. It is expected that
the capacity of the special will be
crowded to Its utmost and it Is pos
sible that the Oregon City Moose will
assemble in such numbers that it will
be necessary to employ a trailer for
the accomodation of the visiting herd.
Considerable discussion has. been
started concerning the wearing of the
regulation hats.. One of the herd has
gone to a good deal of trouble to ob
tain the very best quality and these
hats will be on exhibition this mornr
ing. No Moose should be without the
appropriate hat, which will" not only
be essential for the trip to the Rose
City but will also be invaluable for
all other junketings of the order, plans
for which are heing prepared by the
various committees for the near fu
ture.
