THE MORNING OREGOXIAX, FRIDAT, APRIL 6, 190C. 11 IF MOTHEfIS VOTE Dr. Shaw Says Candidates Will Mind Babies. WITTY REPLY TO QUESTION Committee Reports at the Equal Suf frage Conference Show What Has Been Done for the Cause in Oregon. Committee reports at the equal suf frage conference yesterday brought many facts to light regarding the con dition of the campaign and the strength of the suffrage forces through the state. It was announced in one re port that there were 189 organized campaign committees In various parts of Oregon with a working membership of nearly 5000 women. Practically all of thse committees were represented at the conference, and it is claimed that many of them have members who have not hen listed at headquarters. So far there have been only six regu lar lecturers in the field, but three more are now added to that list, and after the primaries others will go out, including a number of men. Gall Laughlln stated that in preparing the petition, 33 1-3 more names,, than were neccssnry were secured, and that It Aras filed with the Secretary of State six weeks before the time limit ex pired Dr. Shaw's Witty Keply. There was a good programme at the ovenlng and afternoon sessions. Rev. Anna Shaw being at her best and In fusing new life and spirit in the pro ceedings When asked by some auditor who would take care of the babies If the women went to the polls to vote. Miss Shaw stated that It might be presumed that the same agencies which cared for them when women went out to pay their taxes might look fter the little ones: otherwise If the fath ers were not Intelligent enough or had not. sufficient governmental powers to control an infant for an hour or so. that there need be no uneasiness about the outcome. "Don't let the care of the baby worry anyone for an Instant, she said, "there will be no day in the year on which babies will be so well cared for when there will be so many willing hands to protect it, as the day on which the mothers can cast their votes. And If there are no others to are for them, the candidates will see to It that thoy are cared for and enter tained while mother drops her ballot for them." New Democratic Ideal. "The New Democratic Ideal" was the subject of Dr. Shaw's evening address, and a large audience of men and wom en filled the White Temple to hear her expound the principles which embrace the equality of women In affaires of government. "The new democratic ideal differs from the old.' she said, "because In this country we have undertaken the greatest task men ever assumed to give every man and wom an an opportunity to be and become nil that It Is possible to- be and become under the law. It is to ba a pure d"e mocrncy in which no man will stand on another man's shoulders to rise, and in which no man will permit an other to stand on tyls shoulder to rise. And the same Is true of women. Grovcr Cleveland said that no woman's name shouldbo known publicly excepting In connection with her husband's buV how some of them would shrink from that! Women are Just as responsible as men, and If men arc unjust It is women's fault because they do not recognize Justice and demand it. When you women become a unit on the suf frage question you will get It. "There is absolutely nothing in the na ture of government that will Interfere with the highest development of women. and when this evolutionary monarchy be comes a republic this fact will be clearly established. T say that America Is not a republic for a republic is a form of gov ernment established and controlled by the vote of the peopl". It is only by the vote of a fraction of the people that our Gov ernment is conducted by the vote of the men. Women were voted by the highest ecclesiastical body of tho country at one time to be possessed of souls, and were determined by tho Supreme Court of the United States to be persons, so are we not considered as a part of the pepple? Oregon a Good State. Miss Kate Gordon, of New Orleans, was one of tho brilliant speakers of the last session, and told of tho scrap of suffrage which the women of Louisiana enjoyed and what they had accomplished with it. Miss Clay, of Kentucky, wis another speaker who aroused great enthusiasm, and her description of some of the laws of her own state caused the delegates to include that Oregon was a pretty good state after all. Mrs. DoVoe, of Washing ton, and Miss Chase. National lecturer, were favorites on the platform. The press bureau of the camnaisrn has been managed by Mrs. Ida Porter-Boyer.T ana she spoke yesterday of the potent factor the Oregon newspaper had been In the present fight, adding that Oregon was "being advertised more" through the suf frage articles appearing In its press col umns than through any other medium. Dr. Annlce Jeffrey Myers gave a review of thcN campaign which gladdened the hearts of all workers by Its optimistic out look. Miss Mary Anthony made brief re marks at both sessions, and Mrs. Wood worth and Mrs. Colby were speakers la the suffrage cause Detail "Work of Session. All of the morning was taken up with detail work of the campaign, the new arrivals from National headquarters get ting a comprehensive Idea of the work which has been accomplished and what is now being d6m for Its furtherance. Miss Shaw will make a lecture tour and other powers 'arc to be put to work. The ad dresses which have been mad in various small towns by Mrs. Ralph Wilbur, pres ident of the amis, were mentioned, and some of her arguments commented upon, but it was noticeable throughout the two days' conference that no unkind words were, directed at th antls. Miss Shaw stated that their so-called argument or campaign document contained absolutely no argument bearing directly on the suf frage question, and a Forest Grove dele gate reported that Mrs. Wilbur acknowl edged In a speech at that place that ' would probably be one of the early voter if the suffrage amendment carried but there was no spirit of ridicule in any of these remarks. 3 . """VL? Airtti' ot the delegates will leave for their homes today, but some of them will regain in Portland several days. SINGS WITH GERARD1. Anne Beatrice Sheldon, New Prima Denna, Signally Honored. A marked compliment was won yester day by Anne -Beatrice Sheldon, the prima don Ma seerano of this city. la being en gaged to stag in . three Pacific Coast con certs with Jean Gerardl, the. great Bel gian cetllet, the ether assisting artiste being Andre Benetot, the eminent Freach pianist. 'The three concerts are Victoria. B. C. April 39; Vancouver. B. C. April 21; and Belllagbap, Wash.. April 23. This is an honor never won before by any Portland singer to appear on the Pacific Coast en tour with such a celebrated European musical celebrity as Gerard I. The engagement was made at Victoria, B. C. through Manager C. H. Gibbons Gerardi's traveling representative. In ad dition to her concert appearance at Vic toria with Gerard! Mrs. Sheldon will be the soloist with the Victoria Musical Club in Cowen's "Rose Maiden She will also sing at a concert in Seattle, in conjunc tion with Franz Boyd Wells, and Easter Sunday morning Mrs. Sheldon will sing at Trinity Protestant Episcopal Church the solo, "I Know That My Redeemer Liveth" from Handel's "Messiah." At the latter part of the last week Mrs. Sheldon was summoned by Manager Gib bons to Victoria, B. C for a conference, and she had a very pleasant Interview with him. He had heard of her Paris and Berlin musical work, and of the very successful concert In which she recently made her debut at the Marquam Grand Theater, this city. And from personal friends there came flattering reports of the marked talent of the new Portland prima donna. In this engagement musi cal Portland Is signally honored. Gcrardl Is In the front rank of the world's cellists.

There was another false alarm noised about town yesterday concerning the Marquam Theater. Fred Lincoln, general manager for Sullivan & Consldlne.' waa in Portland to sec about repairs to be made to the Grand Theater, and Mr. Erlckson told him that tho firm had the opportunity to lease the Marquam if it so desired. Mr. Lincoln said that the firm did not so desire, for the theater could not be opened Sundays. That is as far as the negotiations went. The Schu berts are expected next to be heard from with some proposal, but they do not con trol enough shows to make it profitable to open the Marquam. unless some one clso combines with them to put on some Hort of a stock company, and the chances are thin that anyone hereabout wants to do this. Considering Mr. Sullivan's rela tions with Klaw & Erlangcr in New York, it may also be said that the chances arc not brilliant that Bernhardt will bo allowed to play at the Grand. It was also decided yesterday by Mr. Erlckson and Mr. Lincoln to change the kind of faro at the Star next month. May 1 they will Install a stock company to play musical travesties. Mr. Collins, who is now producing that kind of thing at Reno, Nevada, will head the company. When Mr. Helllg canceled his lease on the Marquam Theater It was made xne of the conditions that if. in any case, the theater was permitted to be used as a theater again. Mr. Helllg was to have first option at a given rental. He says that unless the theater is open Sundays it cannot successfully compete under the present conditions in Portland, The busi ness proposition offered to others by the Marquam is not inviting to capitalists. BUYS EAST SIDE REALTY Charles Fields Will Erect on Prop erty Thrcc-Story Building. Another transaction illustrating the rise of realty values o& the Bast Side was con cluded yesterday, when Charles Fields purchased from Richard Xohler a half block on East First street for $35,000. The property lies on the west side of Ea&t First street, between Bast Morrison and Belmont. The deal was- handled by Reed, Fields & Tynan, The land Is entirely un occupied. The new owner stated yesterday that he Intended to build ipon the property a brick building to cost about S35.O00. It will be three stories high, and the larger part will be used as a warehouse. The Morrison-street front, however, will be fitted for retail stores. Mr. Fields is now making the preliminary plans in consulta tion with prospective tenants.

BLUNDER OF THE COUNCIL Appropriations Recently. Made Can not Be Touched City Attorney Is Asked to Straighten OhL the Tangle. It developed, at a meeting of the Fire Commissioner yesterday, that the are de partment is likely to experience consider able difficulty in connection with the ap plication of funds appropriated for it by the Council. Mayor Lane announced at the meeting that the Executive Board NEWLY ELECTED OFFICIALS OF CITY OF ST. JOHNS could not spend a dollar for the Installa tion of a new engine company at Highland unless the Council made a special appro priation out of the general fund, or trans ferred the amount necesrary from some other fund. The City Attorney may be asked to devise a way out of the difficulty. When the appropriations were passed for thb year, provision was made for the Installation of an engine company in the vicinity of the terminal grounds, at a cost not to xceed'$12.TM. including for the erection of a building; for a hook and lad der truck In the fire station on Russell street, near Williams avenue, cost not to exceed 1(330; for the Portland Heights en gine company. $14,700. Including tVXO for the purchase of a house and grounds; 312.600 for the Brooklyn engine company; J13.C0O for the East Couch and East Twenty-eighth stret engine company. Includ ing ICiOO for house and grounds; and Tlt. 160 for n new engine company In the vi cinity of Grand avenue and Holladay ave nue, to take the place of the chemical en gine now located on Union avenue. Includ ing KO00 for house and grounds. This, l.i brief. Is the situation with re- gard to the proposed new engine com- j panics Intended to be established In dlf- fercnt parts of the city. The department ' ?rT, h0U? .?"d ,chen!,cal cn;,neJ" Highland, and the plan always has been to transfer the chemical engine to Missis- slppi avenue and replace the volunteer 4 wlth a paid company there, at the same . time putting in a new engine at Highland, The fact that specific aoDroorUtlons have been made precludes the possibility - . , 7C i 7C, jm, . . L I of doing anything in this direction with- out a transfer from some other fund, and It seems to be a question whether this i can be done legally. Efforts will also be made to purchase the apparatus formerly In use at the Lewis and Clark Exposition. Chief Camp bell reporting that it could bo secured for Jlr.0 less than original cost, though it is practically new. It consists of an en gine and truck, and has been in actual use less than a dozen times. The Com missioners resolve to advertise for bids in accordance with charter requirements, but the proposals will be drawn In such a way as to assure the acquisition of the Exposition apparatus. This will probably be Installed at the Nicolal-street engine house. It seems to be doubtful whether any new company can be established In the vicinity of the terminal grounds, as pro Aided in the appropriations, for the reason that the only available site is on land be longing to the Terminal Company, which the company, off ers to lease to the city for a terra ot Ave years. The Mayor and his Executive Board are opposed to plac ing any fire engine house on rented ground. At one time it was thought the diffi culty might be solved by titillrlng that portion of North Third street, between the Willamette Iron Works and the approach to the Steel bridge, but it seems that a resolution has been presented in the Coun cil opening Hoyt street, from North Third to North Fourth, which would have a ten- ! many large subscriptions have been prom dencv to tircvent the blocking of the hls-h. ' !4 ' dency to prevent the blocking of the high way. The sum of 350.G6 was allowed David M, Lloyd, a member of chemical engine com pany No. X out of the sick benefit fund, and in all probability he will be asked to resign from the department on account of permanent disability. He is said to be suffering from nervous dyspepsia and sci atic rheumatism, contracted, according to a certificate from Dr. M. A. Fllnn, through exposure and overwork while on duty, his condition making it Impossible for him to follow his usual occupation or perform manual labor of any kind. He Is under municipal civil service rules, and It is doubtful bow the commission ,will view the effort to oust him. Chief Campbell reported the following resignations: H. H. Nichols, hoseman of the flreboat; W. R. McAllister, driver hose company No. 6. Frank Craig, hoseman at engine -company No. 1; Ellsworth Adams, ladderman at truck company No. X These appointments were confirmed: Charles A.

Farmer Scott Offers to Run Grant Dlraick Fifty-Mile Footrace In Clackamas County they are hav ing a strenuous campaign. Especially Is this true in the contest for County Judge between Richard Scott, a well known fanner living at Mllwaukle. and Grant D I sick. They are out most every night talking to the people. The other night Mr. Dimlck said he was disposed to treat his worthy antagon ist. Richard Scott, gently, as he was n man 70 years of age and It ill became him to stuck a man of that age loo severely. When It came to Mr. Scott's turn to talk he assured Mr, Dimlck he was not in need of any sympathy on the score of being an aged man. "Now to .demonstrate that 1 am as good a man physically as Mr. Dimlck. said Fanner Scott. "I hereby challenge him to a 30-raIIe footrace. We will run from Mllwaukle achoolhouse to the Courthouse and back, and then make another round trip and then again back to Oregon City. That will show which one of us Is the best roan. Mr. Scott was carrying a 200-pound grass-seeder from his farm down to the blacksmith shop in Mllwaukle yes terday, and remarked that hi had not received any word from Mr. Dimlck regarding his challenge to run that 50 mllc footrace. "I am out every night on the stump." remarked Farmer Scott, -and work -all day on ray farm." NO CHANGEIS ORDERED Quartermaster's Office Not Moved From Portland to Seattle. DeDot Quartermaster A.

"but I may do so later on, One thing I will say is that he promised me that he would sign It. and that in the presence of W. 9. McPherson. After that he vetoed it. I suppose the Mayor will deny this.

GETSTHE MAXIMUM Jower, Who Held White Girl in Bondage, Sentenced. FINE AND IMPRISONMENT Ninety Days In the City Jail and Payment or Two Hundred Dol lars Ordered hy Judgo Cameron. W. S. Jower. the Chinese- merchant who had more inclination to place a white girl in bondage than to select one of his own color, was censured in Police Court yesterday morning be-, fore a crowded courtroom by Munici pal Julge Cameron until the coarse black hair of the Chinese rose from its part in the middle and stood on end for fear. After reciting briefly the facts in the case. Judge Cameron gave the Chinese the limit, and said that it was only the maximum allowed by law that prevented a heavier sentence: Jower was sentenced to pay a fine ot $200 and to spend 90 days in the City Jail. The admissions made by. Martha Smith to Deputy Cljy Attorney Fitz gerald, who had obtained affidavits from the girl, were used by Judge" Cam eron in pronouncing sentence on the yellow man. "The admissions of Mar tha Smith before the court. In which sho told of her past, have no bearing on the gulirof Jower." said the Judgi "It matters not whether Jower was cognizant ot the fact of what the girl's life had been. He entered into. and tried to carry out what he had planned. anI now deserves the sen tence which the court will Impose." Turning to Thomas O'Day, who had defended the Chinese; the Judge gave out the sentence, which unless the ap peal case Is won In a higher court will be carried out. , When Judge Cameron bad' pro nounced sentence. Mr. O'Day rose and asked that the second charge against the Chinese, that of having opium in his possession, be continued. The court granted the request and the sec ond trial will be held In the near future- Mr. O'Day gave notice of appeal to the Circuit Court and' the Judge fixed the appeal bond at $500. Jower's friends were able to furnish the re quired amount and the Chinese was re leased. Deputy City Attorney Fitzgerald will not allow the case against Miss Smith to be dismissed. The charge. against her will be held over ficr'ead pending a hearing of the Chinese case.. MIsh Smith was returned to-her cell'in the City Jail. Bitter words were spoken In Clerk Hennessey's office after the trial, in which the young woman, who it is al leged Introduced Miss Smith to Jower and Miss Smith herself, accused each other of wrong. The lie was passed' between them until they were Inter rupted by the officers of the court JAIL FOR MILLIONAIRE.: Bradbury Sentenced, but Gets: (Free dom While Appeal Is Pending: -. SAN RAFAEL, Cal..
