The (hoys were nun plUHHt'il, the Jickpot withered, and they even conned discussion of the White Sulmou-ltlngen controversy over the naming of the station. They held the cards, but the sheriff and his party had the lead. While the sheriff kept Itrnntner Interested. Smith and Darch took their bunch tip the hill and to Justice A. I!.

K.Camp-U-ll, members of the State Hallroad Commission, came here Saturday and went to I'arkdale to hear the complaint of the I'pper Valley Pro gressive I -en g lie against the Mt.

On this account the hearing was carried over to December 5th, the railroad commissioners stating that that dat was the earliest that it could be heard. The commissioners were a little annoyed at the members of the league for not according them an opportunity to get the Information they wanted, after they had taken the trouble to come here. The complaint was tiled by the league In objection to the service furnished by the railroad company. It Is understood that since the com pany has Improved the service the complaint will lie withdrawn. Copy for advertisements must lie lu the otlice by Monday noon.

OHEGOJV E (An address given receutly at the V. M. C. A. hall lu Portland by CUr- ence True Wllsou, D. D.) When two armies face each other la battle the army of aggression, be fore It can engage the main body, must drive In the enemy. The woman's suffrage propaganda has thrown out certain skirmish Hues lu the public thought and these must lie driven lu before we can come to the main argument. First, then, those who claim thut the ballot Is woman's right quote from the declaration of Independence that "Taxation without representa tion Is tyranny." liut the quotation is not lu point, for thut sentiment was uttered with uo possible refer ence to Individual voters, male or female. It was a declaration of the representatives of the thirteen colo nies that unless these colonies could have a representative In the parlia ment nml In the cabinet to protect their Interests, King (Seorge should uot ask us to pay duty. It has no reference to the casting of ballots. for men voted In every colony, but It was a declaration that one govern ment ought not to tax another with out due representation. I'ltOTKI'TION FDII WOMKN. In order to make it refer to wom an's suffrage It would have to be proven that women are not now properly represented by their hus bands, fathers or brothers; thut the government does not protect them In their property Interests, and that they do not get value received for their money. The question of voting has no ref ference to the paying of taxes. We pay our taxes In return for the pro tection to life and property, by the laws of a civilized nation. Some men who have no property vote and many who have no vote pay large taxes. Numerous young men and women, heirs to large estates, pay Immense sums In taxes, but have no vote. Persons residing lu foreign lands or who have lived In this coun try only a few years pay taxes, but have uo vote. In fact, voting has no reference whatever to taxes.
