What is this government that we women have been 4 ught to think
of a3 something too remote from our interests, so unrelated to the im
mediate personal preoccupations of our daily lives?
There are three great matters in which we are all concerned re
ligion, education and government In religion men and women.
SHARE EQUALLY. Indeed, men sometimes are content that wo
men should do more than their share. In education it has come to
pass that both men and women participate EQUALLY, though that
was not always so. , '
BUT GOVERNMENT IS CONSIDERED AS MEN'S EXCLU
SIVE PROVINCE a limitation that has narrowed the lives of the
women, that, has robbed the children and that has reacted most in
juriously upon the state. For with what matters does government
concern itself? Why, with matters that touch INTIMATELY
HOME HAPPINESS AND HOME PROSPERITY, with laws and
.'regulations that guard and further human lives. ' " ' . '
CERTAINLY EVERY WOMAN' WILL CONCEDE THAT' IN SO FAR

Jonathan Bourne, avowed champion
of the Oregon ' system, would recall
the decision of the voters of this state
last April by becoming an independ
ent candidate on petitions secured at
five cents per name. What do the real
friends of the direct primary think
of such a course?
Oregon has one of the best, perhaps
the very best, Railway Commissions
in the country. They have the unique
distinction of acting so fairly and so
wisely that both the railways and the
public have confidence in their integ
rity and intelligence. It is proposed
by the Malarkey bill to put all public
utility companies under the control of
this commission. Vot for it. On the
the ballot you will find the number is
314, Yes. Be sure and put a cross be
tween the 314 and Yes like this, 314
X Yes.
Has the Oregon farmer and small
houseowner heard Senator Bourne de
clare himself on the single tax issue?
He has studiedly avoided committing
himself on the measure. But it is not
so with Ben Selling, the Republican
direct primary nominee for Senator.
Mr. Selling is unalterably opposed to
single tax.' His attitude on this meas
ure has provoked the active opposition
of U'Ren, Cridge, Eggleston, et al.,
who are making the battle for single
tax in this state. They are support
ing Bourne for Senator.

OREGON CITY, Nov. 4. (Editor
Morning Enterprise) The Meaning
of a Vote. I wonder if it is necessary
in this day to defend the right of a
minister and the church to concern
themselves with things political. Time
has been when the church ruled the
state and wrought havoc with men's
liberties. Then followed the violent
disruptions of church and state and
men have ever since feared eccles
iastical - domination. Now what we
have most to dread is a.n unchristian
state. The church has nothing to ask
of the state except that it be chris
tian in its laws and in the administra
tion of them. We mean by that the
ancient Roman piety which makes a

Hits A Political Trail--And
man too loyal to his state to corrupt
it, and the ancient Jewish righteous
ness which makes for justice for ev
ery man and woman and child. We
mean the christian quality of brotn
erhood which is as quick to , see a
wrong to a fellow citizen as to ones
self and as quick to remedy it as t5
condemn it.
The present concern of the church
with politics is to see that christian
men do their public duty. Under our
form of government! every man and
woman is in his own measure respon
sible for the kind of politics we have.
Any man who does not take part in
it neglects it at his peril, at the peril
of having the public business adminis
tered by dishonest men in their own
interest. He makes easier for vice to
flourish because officially protected
and harder for virtue to be safe be
cause it is persistently tempted.
In this country a vote registers pub
lic opinion and determines who shall
be the makers and executors of the
law. In this state the vote of a citi
zen can also help directly to make
the laws. Consequently as christian
men we are bound to act politically
both for ourselves and for our state
and nation. We do not seek domina
tion by the church in politics nor fav
or from the state to the church, but
we ask and are responsible for in
some measure the right' decision of
the moral problems of living together
in the twentieth century. The way fom
ilies live and bring up their children
the conditions under which men and'
women work, thof education of the
future citizen and the social condi
tions which make for the upbuilding
or undoing of the people, the relations
of nations as neighbors or enemies,
all these are moral questions and po
litical questions at the same time.
"Our Christianity is as broad as the
manifold life of our age". It com
mands us to realize the kingdom, of
God and his righteousness in the
whole realm of human life.
In some sense, a vote is a purely
personal matter.. Every man must
cast his own. It counts as one. Each
can make his decision in private. It
is an admirable plan for fixing the
final responsibility upon the individ
ual. "It is an influence which comes
down still
As snowflakes fall upon the sod;
But executes a free man's will,
As lightings do the will of God."
But the will of the ballot depends
upon the number of people that cast
one just like it. A great many ballots
in every election fail to execute the
will if their esters because there are
not enough of them. A ballot has a
moral value as well as an executive
value. The voters who try to pick the
winner and pile their ballots on him
lose their votes as well as fhose who
vote for a loser; because ,3 ma
jority is not necessary ,ci yej
every, ballot has a effect It
shows mat boiu - iner ani' tne
loser nve t of so many
men. -A bu. - ,j0 its utmost
wuen cast Je losing side to re
cord tn .s adherence to a prin
"'" program even though they
ainority. A ballot as a deter
i expression of opinion is not
jt though its candidates be buried
fathoms de.ep. One reason why many
men will vote for the Prohibition par
ty's candidates in this election is not
because the"y expect to elect them but
because they are determined "to elect
an issue'' and will put the liquor ques
tion before the American people as
an issue which must be settled by
national party. -The fact that the
great party platforms have studiously
avoided it makes it necessary for
those who believe in the abolition of
the liquor traffic not only town and
state but in the country over to cast
their ballots for moral effect this time
in a separate political party. A grow
ing movement has been discernible
all over the country this fall on a
platform distinctly progressive with
the addition of prohibition. The addi
tion may be fatal to its success but
those who believe in the abolition of
poverty and crime and misery w5'
find that addition essential. W
christian men believe that hi.,
enough to vote for it together thei.
ballots will execute their will.

Original Meaning of "Snob."
"Snob" meant originally in the land
of its origin a person of plebeian ta
tion.' considered from the height of
"birth." It was a word used with the
downward eye and upward nose of su
perior station or assigned to the
haughty by popular convention. Then
Thackeray took it and rebuked with it
the social amnitious of the vulgar.
OREGON CITY TIGERS
ARE SCORED UPON
For the first time in two years the
Oregon City "Tigers" had their goal
line crossed Sunday on the Canemah
Park field, by the fast and heavy St.
James College team of Vancouver. It
was a bitterly contested matcn trom
beginning to end, St. James having a
slight edge on the Tigers in straight
football and were quite a bit super
ior in handling forward passes.
Oregon City did not play -by, far as
good a game as they did agairst Hol

and numerous injuries to players.
Fred Lawrence wasn't able to play
Roos' head gave him quite a bit of
trouble that Carothers shouldn't hve
been allowed to play at all.. He never
theless played a hard, gritty game.
Contrary to reports St. James show
ed up quite a bit heavier than the lo
cals. They started the game with a
rush, using straight football the first
quarter. In the second period they
carried the ball down to Oregon City's
goal by a series of brilliant forward
passes and bucked the line for a
touchdown. Failed to kick goal.
In the third quarter the Tigers
took brce and in using straight
bucks, interspersed with short end
runs, carried the ball down the. St.
James 30-yard line where a beautiful
forward pass from Roos to Donaldson
gave the Tigers their score. No go?'
kicked. Donaldson's handling of
j
life j'
Also The Sidewalk
pass and his sharp sprint of 20 yards
was the star performance of the lo
cals. "Vic'' Lawrence played a splen
did game at left guard, considering
it was his first game in about six
years. He only had a week's practice
at that. Arnold didn't play his usual
game. "Bill and "Dutch" Freeman,
put up a stiff exhibition. "Pete" Long
Smith .and Roos were there on stop
ping runners. "Fuzzy" didn't have
much trouble getting through St.
James' line but the mud caused him
to miss quite a few tackles.- Twice
Roos slipped In starting passes.
! For the visitors, Bishop was the
bright particular star. His line plung
ing was terrific, kicking good, and his
passes were perfect for a slippery
field. T'" -npson and Le Caff played
a tt ame, while McCarty at
; -4 his team well.
i was a most satisfact-
! ugh it looked at
times as though he favored the visit
ors a trifle but a fair local man would
do likewise so no complaint could be
registered about favoratism.
Parvis of Vancouver, as an umpire
was a joke. His decisions were faulty
to saye the least. Three times
running he penalized the locals when
things were in their favor for slight
offenses without giving out a single
warning. No good football official
would be guilty of the like. His re
marks after the game should be suf-;
iicieni warning xo me nome team to
see that a good referee is appointed
when the return game is. played in
Vancouver. Parvis expects to referee
at that game.
The game wag badly marred with
altogether too much rag chewing and
wasn't any too choice in numerous
spots, both teams playing slightly
soiled ball at different times. Consid
ering the locals', condition "Sap" Lat
ourette, coach, was satisfied with the
result. The outcome of Sunday's
showed the weak spots and the Tigers
are in for a most strenuous week of
coaching to prepare them for the
game with the McLoughlin Club of
Portland next Sunday, which will no
doubt be the fastest game of the sea
son. McLoughlin always has given
Oregon City a good game. They are
I clean, heady players and game to the
core.
I Although fans are sorry that the
i locals were even scored on, their re-
markble "go back, and even it up" spir
I it still leaves them the only team in
i the state with not a defeat in two
years' record to point proudly to. -'.
