Sacajawea is in town. She got here
yesterday morning with her papoose
and was assisted from a fast freight
unwelcomed by any brass bands or re
ception committees. In fact, she was
forced to remain in the close confines
of heavy bandages all day long, for
her pedestal out at the Exposition
grounds was not finished. Within the
next few days, however, the magnifi
cent bronze statue will have Its place
of honor on Lakeview Terrace.
The Sacajawea statue furnishes a
most important addition to the statuary
of the Exposition. It will be the
most costly, as well as the most attrac
tive statue there. It was modeled by
Miss Alice Cooper, of Denver, and the
execution in bronze was effected by the
Henry Bonner Ccmpany. of New York.
The cost was about $7000. and this
money was raised by the ladles of the
Sacajawea Statue Association, who un
dertook the work in order that one of
the heroines of the Pacific Northwest
might receive the honor due her. The
story of Sacajawea Is one of the roman
tic pages from early Oregon history.
She Guided the Expedition.
Sacajawea, or Tsakakawea as tome
authorities insist, guided Lewis and
Clark across the Coast Mountains and
pointed out the Trail to them when
every hope of ever seeing the ocean
seemed gone. The record of her pa
tient, untiring, faithful heroism ap
peals to all alike.
When she Joined the Lewis and Clark
expedition In 1804 in the Rocky Moun
tain region it was as the third slave
wile of Charbonneau, a French-Canadian
voyageur and interpreter. But for
her knowledge of the country through
which the expedition was to pass,
Charbonneau would have been dis
missed from the service, but it hap
pened that Sacajawea was a Shoshone
Indian who had been taken captive by
the Blackfeet and her youthful days
had been spent in the country through
which the expedition must pass. The
chief of the Shoshones proved to be her
brother and thus every courtesy was
accorded the party. In many ways
Sacajawea displayed herself to be pos
seted of what the civilized world
w6uld be pleased to term high virtues.
She knew not what fear was and ex
hibited daring on many occasions. At
one time, in crossing a small river in a
canoe containing many valuable papers
belonging to Lewis and Clark the boat
Avas upset and with rare presence of
mind Sacajawea got the papers from
the water before they were carried
away and managed to save her own
life and that of her papoose as welL
The expedition at an end, she re
turned with the party to the starting
p61nt and then took' up the old life as
the slave-wife of the Frenchman. Just
when she died history does not record.
Breckenrldge found her in poor health
in 1S11 and It is believed she died
shortly afterwards. Charbonneau was
last seen alive on the banks of the
Upper Missouri in 1S3S, but Sacajawea
wis not with him at that time.
It Is not until the passing of a cen
tury that the Blrdworoan is gaining
recognition for her work. Where a
few years ago only a few delvers Into
history knew the story? It is now fa
miliar to nearly every schoolboy In
Oregon.
The statue itself is an Idealized cre
ation. It represents the young squaw
with a papoose strapped to her back.
The short hunting skirt and deerskin
legglns show a figure full of buoyancy
and animation. A shapely arm sugges
tive of strength points to the distant
sea. the face is radiant, the head
thrown back, and the eyes full of
daring.
The statue will be unveiled July 6.
which will be known at the Exposition
as 'Sacajawea day. Arrangements are
being made for a big demonstration on
that occasion. All children wearing
Sacajawea buttons will be admitted to
the Fair without charge. The cere
monies will be under the auspices of
the Sacajawea Statue Association, of
which Mrs. Eva Bmery Dye is presi
aat. The membership includes prom-
lneat xooen throughout . Oregon,
"Washington, Idaho, Montana, the Da
koias, Utah, Nebraska and Colorado.

OLD STEADY SHOWN FLOUNDERING IX THE MTD.
OM Steay, the auto in the race acror tha continent from New Tork to Port
land a-ats?t OkJ Scout, which arrived a week ago. reached Portland yesterday aft
ernoon shortly after 3 o'clock. The machine was battered aad bruised after Ks
51-day Journey, but still able to make Kood time over bad roads Percy F. aiegar
ste. the driver, and his companion. Bartlett Stanchfield. shew tha effects ot the
4500 mite trip, and will rest ta Portland, several days before maklar further plana.
Staachfleld was unable to withstand the hardships of the trip as welt as Megarxle.
The farmer was laid up three er four days en the road, and almost had pneumonia.
Breakdowns along the roads, especially after leaving- the Middle Western States,
were numerous, and frequent stopa wers made for repairs. - Axlra and eptings
were broken in Colorado, which had to Ce temporarily mended until Boise. Idaho,
was reached, where new parts for the machines had been ordered.
Megargle takes hts defeat by Hut, the driver of Old Scout. Mke a sportsman,
and at that he recognised that he was driving against one of the beet autelstsv
In the country. Nevertheless Megargle thinks that It it had not been, far aaesdents
along the road there would have bten a different ending to the race. At one tka
Old Scout was ten days ahead ot Its rival, which, was lowered to thres days by
Megargle. Then the breakdowns began to occur and the machine fell behind. It
waa net until Old Steady had reached Prtneville. Or., that It was learned that Huss
had wen the race. From Prisevllle to Portland Megargle and his esmpanlen slewed
up and took, their time to reach Portland. Both men are voluble In their praise
for the way they were treated by persons along the road while la Oregon. Every
courtesy was extended to them, and they were aided In their Journey In numerous
ways.
The machine experienced considerable difficulty in crwrfns the mountains bx
thla state. In going down rteep grades, a small tree was carried as a drag, and
leaded en the machine In going up the mountalno. The roads were heavy on account
of the recent rains, and a great part of the distanco was covered on. foot. Megargle
carries the message from Melville Stone, manager of the Associated. Press, to
President Goode, but says that he has no Intention of delivering It at this time.
and will meet again this morning to come
to a final agreement as to what business
shall be presented to the convention for
action. This committee Is composed of
state presidents and chairmen of standing
committees, and outlines the new busi
ness which is to be put before the conven
tion each year. Vice-president Mrs. Car
rie Chapman Catt presided until the re
turn of President Dr. Anna H. Shaw,
who spoke In the early evening at a
meeting of the interstate conference of
the V. C. T. U. Many measures were
brought up and fully discussed, some be
ing rejected, others accepted for pres
entation to the committee of the whole.
The attendance was larger than any
first meeting of this committee ever held
and all present were unanimous in the
opinion that the outlook for equal suffrage
was brighter at present than it had ever
been before.
The convention will be called to order
this afternoon at 2 o'clock In the First
Congregational Church. One of the most.
Interesting numbers scheduled Is the re
sponse of Miss Anthony to the greetings
of other national organizations, repre
senting both men and women. An inter
national greeting was received yesterday
frora the women of Denmark, and num
berless ones from prominent organiza
tions in this country- Miss Anthony Is
at her best when speaking extempora
neously and Is witty and quick at repar
tee, woman In the world is known
co well as she and her appearance will
be one of the events of this momentous
occasion. In the evening Miss Anthony
will preside and Mrs. Carrie Chapman
Catt. vice-president of the national organ
ization, will respond to the greetings of
Governor George H. Chamberlain. Mayor
George H. "Williams and President Jef
ferson Myers of the State Lewis and Clark
Commission.
The event of the evening, however, will
be the annual address of the preseident
Rev. Anna Howard Shaw. Dr. Shaw is
easijy the best and foremost woman
speaker in the world, and in her appear
ance Portland will enjoy a rare treat.
Her eloquence Is seldom equaled and she
is a woman of deep learning, a cogent
rearaner and a brilliant thinker. An
other matter of deep Interest will be the
fact that the Rev. Antoinette Brown
Biackwell. the first woman ever ordained
a minister, will pronounce the benedic
tion. Dr. Blackwell Is now SI years old.
but is still a wonderfully Interesting
character and vitally concerned in the
fate of the equal suffrage movement. Two
years ago Dr. Blackwell made a Journey
to the Holy Land alone, and claims she
had "the time of her life." The elderly
women In this movement all seem to be
remarkably preserved, and they are as
& unit In giving the credit to the cause
In which thrv work.
I While several of the officials of the con
vention took a short outing yesterday.
the majority of them were hard at work
giving their reports and speeches a last
touch and preparing for the hard work
of the week. Miss Anthony and Mrs. Ida
"Busted Harper went for a drive with
Mrs. H. W. Coe and Mrs. Co bum in the
afternoon, and Miss Anthony was de
lighted with the wonderful change in the
city since her last visit here. Forty
years ago she first visited Portland, and
In company with Mrs. Abigail Scott Dun
lway toured the state in the Interest of
the cause of equal suffrage. She was
here again in lS-i, and thinks that even
since that year the progress of the city
has been marvelous.
The women now gathered In Portland
are the most notable in the civilized
world, and Portland feels deeply honored
by their presence. The feminine brains
of America have outclassed those of other
ceentrtes. and the Intellectual leaders of
oae of the greatest modern political
atovertents will be heard hero this week.
