Kilpatrlck Is the first and only man to ride down the west steps of the Capitol at Washington on a bicycle. The Exposition ofllclal.s firmly believe that the attendance for tomorrow will equal if not exceed thnt of opening day. Besides the thousands pf Portland resi dents who will spend the Fourth at the Exposition, people from all parts of the Northwest are planning to attend. Ex cursion rates have been offered on the railroad and boat lines running: Into Port land. There were very few outside people at the Exposition on the opening- day. Since then the strangers have been grad ually increasing, and this will help to swoll the attendance. The Exposition management Is preparing to handle the biggest crowd of the season. THEY ENJOY I.IBERATI'S BAXD Exposition Visitors Charmed With Musical Programmes. Llberatl'.s band attracted hundreds of visitors to the Exposition grounds yester day at both the afternoon and night con certs. The afternoon concert, which con sisted of sacred music, was held in the bandstand at the foot of the Grand Stair way. In the grand medley of popular hymns the following hymns were In troduced. "Brightly Gleams Our Banner." "Beau tiful Valley of Eden." "The Home Ovor There." "Pass 'Me Not." "One Sweetly, Solemn Thought." "Triumph By and By." "Refuge." "To the Work." "Yield Not to Temptation." "Tell Me the Old. Old Story." "What a Friend We Have in Jesus." and "Whiter Than Snow." The MBBI L E. HIRSGH SPEAKS IT FMH Large Audience Hears Chicago m Man's Eloquent Address at Auditorium. SPEAKS ON "TENDENCIES" Compares Americans With Itomans and Traces Increasing Power of Man, Prophesying Results of Pursuit of Wealth. Before one of the largest audiences that has yet gathered in-lhe Exposition Au diloritim. Rabbi Emil Hirscb. of Chicago. yesterday preached his sermon on "Ten denies." Dr. Hlrsch's address was clear The Fourth of July, the day that is cherished In the memory of every patri otic American citizen and child, will be celebrated tomorrow In Portland and at the Exposition as never before In the history of the cities of the Northwest. The city will be the scene of continuous demonstrations from early morning until late at night, but the center of the patri otic activity and enthusiasm will be at the Exposition. From the opening to the closing of the gates there will be scarcely & minute thatls not taken up by spe cial features and entertainments arranged to make Independence day tho most notable event of the Exposition. Realizing that the Fourth could not bo fittingly and appropriately commemorated "without the aid. of the Juvenile Americans, .the gates of the Exposition will be free to children tinder 12 years of age If ac companied by parents or guardians. The .small boy. who heretofore has confined jls outbursts of enthusiasm to the streets lere he was allowed to celebrate unmo- ' lested. will move to the Exposition grounds tomorrow laden with Fourth of July armament. The youthful Americans will not be hampered In the loosening of their pent-up enthusiasm, which has been accumulating since July 4, 1S04. 'as there will be no ban on lire crackers. Exercises at the Fair. The Independence day exercises, which will be held in the bandstand at the foot of the grand stairway at 11 o'clock in the morning will rival the dedication cere monies when the Exposition was thrown open to the public. Llberatl's band will open the exercises by the rendition of patriotic airs, amid the salutes from tho artillery stationed on the Peninsula. The invocation will be pronounced by Rev. A. A- Morrison. The time-honored" cus tom of reading the Declaration of Inde pendence, which is an essential feature of every Fourth of July celebration, no matter how small or extensive. ,vill con stitute a part of the exercises. Barry ..Buckley, of Washington. D. C. will have the honp- -of reading the words that pro claimed to King George the ' determina tion of the Yankees to establish a coun try of their own. Oration by Dr. Wise. The oration of the day will be deliv ered by Dr. Stephen S. Wise. Mrs. Rose Bloch Bauer will sing the "Star-Spangled Banner." to the accompaniment of Lib erates band. The benediction will be pro nounced by Rev. T. L. Eliot, following which there will be a salute of 45 guns. The programme of the exercises has not "been completed, and several more feat ures will be added. The speeches will 11 be short, and It is not thought that exercises will consume more jour's time. technical, display will be the kneased in Portland liar. The features in which colored rices will be used' bore beautiful. Hun- WIl be fired, and the loisySCCbmpanlments will be found In the heavy bombardments.

There will also be colored Illuminated aerial shells, batteries, electric manda rins, Jerendoles, eagles, bouquet flights of rockets and balloons carrying fire works which will explode hundreds of feet In the air. The fireworks will be the special feature at night Prominent' among the attractions of the day are the daring rides of Charles G. Kilpatrlck, the fearless one-legged bicyclist and dare-devil nutomobillst. At 1 o'clock in the afternoon he rides own a flight of stairs on a bicycle, sihlch hav- Uat&. erected at the head o fce Trail. At 4 o'clock he drives Ills jjlutomoblle up the 140-foot incline at the fjead of the Trail. He repeats his per ?fcrmances at 8 o clock and 10 o'clock ttt night These two feats have never been equaled. Takes Jjlfe In 3is Hands. At every performance he takes his Hf in his hands, and the slightest mlscalcula tion or Toss of nerve would send him to a sudden and terrible death.

The crowd was equal to the Inrge audiences thnt were attracted to the Auditorium when Innes' Band gave x rendition of Parsifal. A great deal of enthusiasm was displayed and Liberati was extremely liberal with Ills encores. The programme last night consisted largely of popular numbers. The rendition of the "Dronm Picture." by Uberatl'8 Band was one of the mot popular, numbers on th programme.

Growth of Woman Suffrage Movement To Open Burns Cottage. The Exposition authorities, realizing the Importance of the exhibit of the reproduc tion of Robert Burns' cottage as an edu cational and historical feature of tho Fair, have Induced the Oregon Burns Cottage Association to move it from Its original site to one of the best on the ground, and It has been erected on Gray's boule vard, near the bandstand, where it will be opened to visitors tomorrow. The cottage la an exact reproduction of the blrthplar-e of Robert Burns, tho great Scotch vot, and was one of the principal features of the Ix)ulsiana Purcliase Expo sition, at St. Louis last year. It was brought from there, at an immense ex pense, and will, no doubt, be visited by thousands of lovers of the poetry of Scot land's greatest bard, and will provo of lasting Interest to all visiting Scotchmen. The cottage Is under the management of Tom L. Johnson, .secretary and general maiwger of the Oregon Burns Cottage Association, who informs us that a Scotch thistle souvenir and picture of Robert Burns will be presented to all visitors on opening day, July 4.

Practically every seat on the lower floor was filled and many of those In the gallery Among those who occupied seats on the platform were Rev. Earl M. Wilbur, Dr. J..R. Wilson, Dr. S. S. Wise and the following musicians: J. Adrian Ep plng. MIi Retha Fowler. Miss Petronella Connolly. Dr. George Ainslte and Miss I Ishcr. Dr. Hlrsch's text was "Not by bread alone may man live." He sketched the rise in power of the human race, and J how It was now reaching forth into new worlds to conqUer. He told of the men of former times who anticipated lives In future worlds, and of the present day men who had no thought of the worlds to come. The speaker drew comparison? between the Roman citizen.. In their lust for pleasure and idleness, and the present day man with his desire for power and Influence, and commented on the outcome of the great conflict that Is now being waged in the Orient. Dr. Hlrsch called attention to the Dec laration of Independence, how useful It was In 177C, and how the whims and caprices- of the present day politicians have put the document Into disrepute. During the courpe of his sermon. Dr. Hirich a!d in purl: Increasing Power of Man. j "In this very Exposition here, wo have a concrete example of tho Increasing power of man. The giant trees In the Forestry building have bowed to man. Man has become master, and his destiny is being fulfilled. "The world has become smaller because man ha become larger. The sons of dif ferent races have come clowr together, and humanity hnf grown greater. "Men formerly were filled with the hope of a world to come. Now they are think ing of and are a part of the world of now and here. "We have been told that the present day Is like the days of the decline of the Roman Empire, but it Is not so. The Romans enjoyed leisure, and were con tent with thoughts of pleapure. 'Let the people have their circus waa tho sub stance of their corrupt government. Enjoyment Xot Craved. "Today it Is not enjoyment that we crave. We give our attention to the perfection of utility because we crave power. No nation todaj-. but that Jt Is a nation of workers. We have achieved great things from this inspiration for work. "The Romans had- aftendents on their N June, 1SS4, the men of Oregon voted on an amendment to the constitution of the state which should abolish tho word "male" from Its suffrage clause and give women the franchise on exactly the same terms as men. The measure re ceived 11.223 ayes, but was lost by about a two-thirds majority. In Lw the voters again expressed themselves and the amendment received 26,265 ayes and was lost by only 2137 votes. These figures represent very fairly the change which has taken place in public sentiment in all parts of '.he country on this question. Colorado rejected n wom an suffrage amendment in 1S7 by an overwhelming vote, but In 1SS3 the meas ure carried by a majority of G47. In South Dakota m 18SO the amendment received an afflrma'ilve of 33 per cent of the whole vote cast upon It. and on the second trial, in 1SJS, It received 47 per cent. The first vote was taken In Washington In 1RS9. and on the second attempt, in li3 the opposing majority had been reduced nbout one-half. Kansas first voted on this ques tion In 1W7, giving a very largo majority against lu In 1KM, when It was again submitted, this was greatly reduced and only tho peculiar political conditions the tUruggle of the Republicans to wrest con trol from, the Populists and the Indorse ment of the woman suffrage nmendment by the latter prevented Its being carried.' In every Instance where such an amend ment has been submitted the second time A has received an Immensely larger pro portional vote than It did the first time. 'Another lllusrntlon of the nrogress of 'public sentiment in favor of the enfran chisement of women la seen In the deter mination of leglslr' urea not to submit the question to the voters. In California In 1S93 an amendment was lost only by the vote of San Francisco and Oakland, and for nine years since then the women have vainly tried to have It submitted again. The legislators have' frankly said: "If Mils Is done it will carry." There is not a politlcan In Iowa who does not know that the majority- of the electors In that state would vote in favor of woman .suffrage, and therefore the legislature per- sli'.ently refuses to allow them the op portunly. This is the situation In a num ber of other states. It would cost the state Itself nothing to have the question piA before he voters: the women ask only to carry It to that tribunal which alone the constitution declares shall have power to extend the franchise; they have a cllzen's right to this privilege, bi.K the legislature oversteps Its prerogative and denies them their only chance. If tho political party leaders believed such an nmendment would be defeated, would they continue year after year ;helr determina tion not to let It be submitted? As still another proof of the fact that the voters if freed from .he domination of the "machine bosses" would have a sense of Justice strong enough to grant women the citizen s right to .Individual representation, tnke the cases bf Wyom ing, Utah and Idaho. Wyoming womn exercised the suffrage In "that territory for '21 years, and when the constitution for statehood was being prepared in lSW the party leaders did not dare Indeed they did not desire to exclude women from this privilege, and so when that document wer.1: before the voters they adopted it Hlmoi'i unanimously, women suffrage and all. In Utah, while a territory, women voted for 17 wars, and In the constitutional convention for statehood In 1SS3 leaders of all parties made and carried the light '.o Include a provision for woman suf frage. Tile electors ttnw untrammeled by party hostility adopted It by 26,(00 out of 31.tiCO votes. In Idaho In ISfS all parties Indorsed an nmendment giving suffrage to women and It was submitted at the fall election. The electors having thusUrecelvcd permission from the political powers to vote In favor adopted it bv a majority of 5S44 out of 1S.40S. To sum up the situation ns It exists to day: The entire slntus of women has changed within '.he past generation. Where once they were Ignorant they are now educated: they have followed their domestic work outside the home, where It has been largely taken, and have now become reorganized industrial factors; once legally unable Ko own property they now pay annually billions of dollars In taxes; once isolated and, wholly without knowledge of or interested In publlp af fairs, they are now banded in great or ganizations and actively engaged In civic work. Their relation to the Government has been transferred, and however potent may have been the reasons for excluding them from ;he voting body a generation ago. these now are without weight and indeed without existence. The masses of men, especially In the states west of the Mississippi River, where the foreign element does not over shadow, recognize these modern condi tions and admit 'the Justice of giving this new race of women a voice in the Govern ment. In any or all of these states a ma jority of the men would vote in favor of granting the franchise to women If thy were free from the domination of the party leaders who "run the machine." But these controlling powers work upon the passions and fears of certain classes, making them believe that their own per sonal rights would be curtailed if women could vote, and so they exercise their veto power. Eliminate from any campaign for women suffrage the political "bosses," with all ':hnt name implies, and the voters themselves could be depended on for a favorable majority a 'square deal.
