WOMEN AND Previous to the Port
THE BALLOT land election certain
raven-voiced people prophecied that,
the ballotting would show that wom
en were unfitted for suffrage. The
Portland election has passed, and it
is not to be noticed that the women
showed any particular unfitness nor
weirdness in their choice of candi
dates. In fact, judging from the re
turns, the women voted largely ac
cording to personal opinion which is
the way all good citizens should vote.
Efforts were made to stampede' the
"woman vote" to a certain candidate
in the mayoralty race, but the latest
figures give evidence of no pronounc
ed stampede. Efforts were also male
to show up one of the candidates for
commissioner as a close ally, if not
an actual friend, of the red light ele
ment,' yet this candidate ranked high
in the final count. Efforts were also
made to center the vote of the women
upon a "pretty" candidate who has
dallied nonchalantly with "city beau
tiful" work, with "the uplift," an3
with other hobbies much discussed at
afternoon teas and "at homes;" and
it is to be noticed that this candidate
is way down at the foot of the list of
also-rans. -
Portland elections heretofore have
usually followed certain reasonably
definite lines. That this one did not
must be credited to the women, and
that the wide variety of men selected
won places in the new government
must also be .charged to the women.
These men are not of the same stamp,
nor of the same party affiliations, nor
of similar records in the past. Their
selection must, therefore, have been
Thousands of Crooks Are
Walking the Streets
Unpunished
By HENRY A. WISE, Lawyer, of Ne York
F the public prosecutors of
by obsolete limitations which
whole truth surrounding the
vestigate and present to the courts THOUSANDS OF
CROOKS WHO ARE NOW WALKING THE STREETS UN
PUNISHED would be doing time in the proper prisons.
IT IS NO EXAGGERATION TO SAY THAT DURING THE PAST
YEAR THOUSANDS OF MEN AND WOMEN HAVE BEEN ACQUITTED
IN THE COURTS OF THIS COUNTRY, NOT BECAUSE THEY WERE
INNOCENT, NOT BECAUSE THERE WAS ANY DOUBT ABOUT THEIR
GUILT, BUT BECAUSE A SMART LAWYER DETECTED SOME PURELY
TECHNICAL FLAW IN THE PROCEEDINGS. '
So deep seated was the impression t' (lanirt'r f'mm judicial malice
or subservience that three centuries hav- not sutfiecil to bring home to
the people of this country a realiziiii.ii tlmt SAFEGUARDS
WHICH WERE NECESSARY IX THE- KATE OF SEVEN
TEENTH CENTURY TYRANNY ARE NO LONGER NEC
ESSARY under the mild rule of twentieth I'cnturv ilonmf-racy.
It is surely not in this country and in this ccnturv. with trials con
ducted in public, with newspapers vagvr t report every detail of tli.
evidence, of the pleadings and of the jiulgt barge, that AN IN
NOCENT MAN NEED FEAR CONVICTION. As a matter of
fact, it is society which has reason to fear that it will not be adequately
protected against its criminal members.

Dillman & Howland
the result of individual thought and
opinion upon the part of the women
voters. It is a mystery what the
women saw in some of the candidates
beyond good intentions, but probably
womanly intuition preferred to trust
to good intentions rather that to def
inite vacuity. Womanly tuition is a
pretty safe thing to rely upon',, and
probably Portland, as a result, will
have as acceptable a group of com
missioners as could be secured for
her experiment with the particular
form of commission rule that is to go
into effect.
For this Portland has her woman
folk to thank. Judging from the fig
ures the men did not vote with the
same independence of opinion, but
were guided by tradition and political
gossip. Probably it was the m-3n
whose votes were scattered from soup
to nuts over the 99 places on the bal
lot, and probably it was the women
who solidified and united upon the
winning candidates. If this is so the
women have done well, have proved
their ability as voters, and havelone
Portland a considerable service ;n
picking the most hopeful of a very un
promising bunch.
SPENDING Down at Klamath Falls
THE CASH this week they had a re
call election. It was just about such
a half-baked affair as may grow out
of the disgruntled agitation in this
county. It cost the voters, through
county outlay, a pretty sum of money,
and it resulted in the complete vindic
tion of County Judge Worden, against
whom the shafts of personal spleen
had been aimed. The voters went to
the polls, cast their ballots, and the
returns show about three to one for
the county judge.
People of Clackamas county will do
well to ponder upon this. A recall
election here will cost upwards of
$5,000. The county this year will be
called upon to spend considerabla
money on betterments, and to provide
widows' pensions, and to otherwise
meet current expenses. If $5,000 is
added to this outlay either one of
two things will result there will be
certain improvement work left un
done and unprovided for, or there
will be a deficit in the county funds.
Maybe some people think it worth
while to risk such conditions merely
to have the mass of voters controvert
this country were not circumscribed
prevent the presentation of the
cases they are called upon to in

Simple Lifers Bloom Out Like
The Flowers of Spring, Tra-la
' " ' K x , s "
Photo by American Press Association. .
YOG heard all about the "simple life" long ago, and, of course, you went
on living just as you alwayB did. But over In "dear old London"
there is a set of "simple lifers" who are trying to get next to nature
in the classic way. This snapshot shows two of 'em In the street
garbed in flowing robes and wearing sandals. Their hair Is done up In the
latest simple life style, and their robes are cut along the newest simple life
models. How do you like them? Naturally If you saw such "simple lifers" on
the street in your town you'd look twice. Even in sophisticated London, where
it is sometimes hard for the militant suffragettes to stir things up, these women
attract attention when thev walk out
the "frame-up" of the famous commit
tee of three, that has already stulti
fied itself two or thre times in its an
deavors to- "explain"' its report.
If a recall election should be held
in this county there is no doubt at
all but that" it would result similarly
to the one just held in Klamath.
There is no real dissatisfaction with
the county court here, it has not been
shown that the county court has done
any wrong, nor has any proof been
submitted that any detail exists with
which fault may be found legitimate
ly. All that has been shown is that
a small group of disappointed, sple
netic individuals, who have in the
past not shown any marked fitness
for public executive office, are desire
ous of ousting county officials for
personal reasons; and presumably are
also desirous of gaining office for
themselves. Maybe it would be
worth $5,000 or so to the county to
hold a recall election just so that
these people could be squelched, once
for all but $5,000 is a pretty price to
to pay for even such commendable
work.
RETURN OF A weekly paper, is
COURTESY sued in this city, some
time ago was kind enough to explain
for the benefit of its readers and
those who persue the columns of this
paper, that the term "yankees of the
East," which this paper used, referred
to Japanese.
One good turn deserves another.
About the same time thai little court
esy was accorded' this paper,
weekly in question printed the state
ment that an injunction had been
granted in Clatsop county against a
proposed timber cruise. This was not
correct. A temporary injunction was
applied for against the Clatsop coun
ty cruise. Judge J. U. Campbell heard
argument" in the matter, and at the
close ef the argument announced that
he would take the matter under ad
visement. Last week his honor re
fused to grant the injunction, and
Clatsop county will cruise its timber.
Incidentally Clatsop county will pay
12 cents an acre. Clackamas coun
ty is paying 8 cents an acre for sim
ilar work.

Enterprise satisfy your wants.
SAYINGS OF TODAY.
The American college of today
is between the upper and nether
millstones. The German-American
university has now become
the home of scholarship and re
search. If the American college
is to repeat in the twentieth cen
tury the inestimable service it
rendered to American civilization
in the nineteenth century it must
recognize the dawn of che new
era. Let the typical graduate be
trained not only in scholarship
and culture, but how to loaf wise
ly. Henry Louis Smith, Presi
dent Washington and Lee Uni
versity. 1 feel as if I am making a
twentieth century flight into an
other world. Comparisons are
impossible. It will take me some
time to get my breath. What a
lot Europe might learn from
wondrous America! But then
one must consider. It is much
easier to build up a new country
than to- change an old one. C.

"THIS IS ;MY. 82ND BIRTH DAY"
Dr. Robert Bell
Dr. Robert Bell, noted as geologist
and explorer and for many years di
rector of the geological survey of
Canada, was born in Toronto, June 3,
1801. His education was received
principally at McGill university and
the University of Edinburgh. He
joined the geological survey of Can-
thei?la 3 857 and for many years was
caU and topographical surveys in
nearly all parts of the Dominion. ' Df.
Bell accompanied the "Neptune" ex
pedition in 1885 to the Hudson Bay
region. As geologist- of the "Diana"
expedition in 1897 he surveyed the
south coast of Baffinland and pene
trated to the great lakes of its inter
ior. He made the first surveys of
many of the largest lakes of Canada,
including the Great Slave Lake and
parts of Athabasca, Winnipeg and the
Lake of the Woods." The Bell river
or western branch of the Nottaway,
which he surveyed in 1895, is official
ly named after Dr. Bell.

Talks

RECOMPENSE.
. In the long run we get what we earn.
Payment may be deferred, but in the
end the account is balanced.
To believe this confers a certain deep
comfort, for it gives us a sense of
faith and security.
We can rest our case in the convirr
Hon that ultimate justice will be done,
that the law of compensation is at
work.
There shajj be recompense recom
pense for good, recompense for evil.
This law of retribution is recognized
the world around. In the orient it is
called karma. In the Occident it is
known as justice. In both the belief
is practically universal that if the
scale is not balanced in this life then
it is balanced in some other.
Herbert Spencer has laid down the
proposition that widespread belief in
any given idea is an argument in its
favor.
The belief in ultimate justice, in the
law of compensation, is as wide as the
world. It has persisted through all
ages. It is a part of all creeds.
It is impossible to think of a phys
ical universe in which there is not ab
solute balance and adjustment
If we meditate deeply enough it will
become 'plain to ms that it is Just as
impossible to think of a moral uni
verse in which there is not absolute
balance and adjustment.
As above, so below; as within, so
without
Henry Drummond once wrote a book
on "Natural Law In the Spiritual
World."
My own belief is that there Is but
one law and that if we see its work
ings on any plane we may find the
analogy to them on every other plane.
We find absolute balance in the ma
terial world. The analogy to this in
the moral world is justice, compensa
tion, retribution.
. Be careful, therefore, of the causes
you are setting up, for sooner or later
the effects will come back to you.
There is nothing more certain than
this that some time and some place
you will get yours.
Siamese Object to Walking.
The Siamese, above all nations in the
world, hate to walk. No such mode of
progression is tolerated by a Siamese
if be or she can by any means ride. A
Venetian gondolier will walk some
times, even a Hollander will ride on
his rough cart but n Bangkok man
not if be can help it. His family boat
for him.
