THE SlOKNTNG OKEGOJilAN, MOXDAY, JXTLY 29, 1907. 0 WOMAN SHOULD BE MISTRESS) OF HOME Although a Capable House keeper, She Must Not Be Made a Slave. OUGHT TO HAVE FRANCHISE Rev. Everett M. Hill Declares Ideal Life of a Wife Is That of a Sweetheart but She Should Be Practical, Too. In speaking to liis congregation at the Taylor-Street Methodist Church last night on "The Young" Woman as a House keeper," Rev. Everett M. Hill, said that he believed every young woman should have a thorough training In the culinary arts, bu. that no woman yhould be a slave of the house. She should be rather, raid he, a wife, a mother, a sister. The life of a sweetheart rather than of a housekeper, he continued is the life for every woman. Rev. Mr. Hill said he believed women should be given a chance to cast their votes at the polls the same as men. He took for his text the story of the tenth chapter of Luke, which tells of Martha, who was "cumbered with much serving." while Mary sat at the feet of Christ. He said in part: In speaking of the young woman as a housekeeper you Immediately think of the cookstove and plea. A housekeeper must bake, of course, and wash dishes and sweop floors and then darn socks the rest of the time! The uncrowned queens of the world are to be found In the kitchens of our American homes. The creature comforts that go to fill out and round out . the enjoyment ot -mortal existence come 'mostly from the hands of the women, God bless them. Now I know that many of you think that I mean that the best way to a man's heart is through his stomach. I deny that as a base slander. But I also affirm that If the sto mach -is made unhealthy by bad cookery then the heart is liable to lose some of its sweetness. As long as the race is as It la, "has Its treasure in earthen vessels," there will need be those who shall superintend the work of keeping the vessels from breaking) by replenishing the Clay. And to such in their difficult task, and to those who in any way minister to the needs of mankind In making the home more homelike, this sermon Is addressed. Martha is the type of the careful house keeper. To her her home was her throne. There she reigned supreme. When the guest came to her houe there was nothing that could be done that she was not willing to do In order that he might be given the very best that the house could afford. I have heard much of the hospitality of the South ern gentlemen of the old school. I am sure that there was and is great hospitality. But I have yet to find a greater hospital ity than Is given by the New England woman of the old school. Not Housekeepers Alone. Mouses were made for men and not men for the houses. A woman ought to be a good housekeeper but not to the exclusion of being a good sister, wife and -mother. Women object to the man spending all his time at the store or the office, but if that is so then the men have the right to' ob ject that their wives spend all their time in the it It chen cooking, or upstairs sweep ing. I knew a very good woman once who had a successful husband who would gladly have given her help in the kitchen or any where else in the house. He could afford it. But she slaved her life away and would not even go on rides with him for she had to keep the house clean and cook the din ner. He would have gladly eaten? a plcked up dinner now and then in order that they might have a trip with the children. But no. she had not the time. So she worked her life out and now this husband, after remaining a widower a decent length of time, married another woman who has a Japanese servants and oversees all things, but will not make herself a slave. She has talked her husband into getting some en joyment out of life and goes with him everywhere. While she Is a step-mother, she is an ideal mother also to the children of her predecessor. What am I trying to prove? That It is not worth while to make one a slave to one's house- There will be dinners to get and houses to sweep when you are gone to your reward. And the work- will be done then as now. Then do not feel that the whole responsibility of life so far as food, clothing and washing are concerned is on your shoulders. There is no true man liv ing who married first a washwoman or a cook. Ho married for a wife and that means more than a slave to the house. The young woman of today wonders If It Is proper to wash dishes and cook, if it is in keeping with, being a lady to do housework? I wish to say that it is and to say it with, strong emphasis. Now I do not wish you to understand me that I think every woman to be a fine lady must do all the tasks of the house. By no means. But she ought to know how to do every thing that needs to be done so that If she must begin with her husband at the low est round she will know how to do it. Or if she is so fortunate as to have a home with servants she will not be helpless in their hands. Nothing Is so sad as for a woman to have a whole army of servants and not understand a thing that any of them do. The mistress that knows how to do all the work that the servants do will be Independent and they will respect her more and stay with her longer. flrst, then, I would have every young woman in the land learn how to be a splen did housekeeper because she will, in all probability, have, to do something at this sometime in her life. Then I would have every young woman learn to classify her work that she may accomplish It with greater ease and still not be bound by it. Learn to be the ruler of the house and not the slave. Now the difficulty with too many women Is that they do too much. Temptation to Overeat. ' Many different kinds of food means that the most of us will eat too much. Have I not seen my dear old mother get up a great dinner for the preacher, with the proverbial chicken, and besides have at th close for dessert when the guests had al ready had sufficient, two kinds of cake and three kinds of pie. Never Ibbb than two kinds of pie. My. but they were good, I will acknowledge, and I never could resist them, but the difficulty with us all Is that the foods are so tastefully placed before us. and in such variety, that w eat too much. There would be less nervous trou bles if we ate less or If we ate as much aa we do now and exercised more. And that means that the young, woman will keep up her physical energy by not attempting too much. On the other hand, she wlir not feel that housework - Is debasing and therefore turn it all over to servants. We hear a great deal about physical culture. It Is the great need of the age. But I have known young women who could, have gotten Just as much good out of helping their mothers sweep the' floor- as to spend an hour or two in some patent machine for exercising the bpdy. Now, not only will the young woman see to it that her training Is such that the house will not make her a slave, for her sake and for the husband's sake, if she ever acquires such an encumbrance, but for the children's sake, if they - ever come to bless the home. No matter what may be said about children being a nuisance and a care and all the rest, yet In the healthy home the child is the reason for the home being established. There are many homes where there are no children because of the false conditions of civilization which have produced sfkly women. But the woman who has health and so has been allowed the Inestimable blessing of lit tie v ones, i of all mortals the most blessed. But when the babies come there must be a place for them. And if the house has been the whole tiring in the young wife's eyes, then when the babies come there win be con stant irritation because there will be work that will have to be allowed to go since the baby takes the attention now. But do not think that I believe that a woman is to belong to her home and not to her country. I am sure that a woman is queen in the home where she reigns with out a rival. But the high motives and lofty Ideals that belong to Just such a char acter are needed very greatly In other places beside the kitchen, dining-room and parlor of the home. I am one of the men who believes that the Nation is not getting Its rights because the peculiar gifts of womankind are not allowed to help solve the great questions that need to be solved. I am thoroughly convinced that women, such women as America has produced, ought to have the franchise. We have haa too much of politics from the standpoint of the man in business and In the professions. Let us try it for awhile from the stand point of the women, In the nursery. We have the standard of the almighty dollar; let us try It once from the standpoint of almighty love. We have organized our Nation on the basis of the sword; let us see if the angel of peace in the shape of the hand that rocks the cradle shall not be able to give us a far more enduring foun dation. If a woman has the right to go down to the gates of death to bring up In her arms a sweet babe, the hope and desire of the coming generation, because without this act there would be no coming generation, she has the right to have her say in what environments shall surround that babe when he has found the courage to leave the blessed environment of her protecting arms. You say that a woman has no genius for government? But then how Is It that you, who make this statement, have received your conception of it? Tour father turned all the responsibility of governing the home over to your mother. From that act of re nunciation I should think that he acknowl edged that he did not have the genius of government and therefore was not compe tent to vote himself! I would say to the young woman facing the future, do not be satisfied to read the latest love stories and not read the great books that teach the destiny of the race and the nations. Be prepared for the fu ture, for I see there greater responsibility awaiting you than you have yet found. To keep the house clean and neat means that a woman has the ability to clean up tne Nation. To scrub pots, pans and smutty kettles means that a woman has the abil ity to see to It that the political candidates will clean up before they come before the public for a vote. F, CAPTAIX . ' KLINGENBERG AR RIVES IX SAX FRANCISCO. Make9 lonely Trip From Point Barrow to Clear His Name of Murder Charge. SAN FRANCISCO, July 2g. Captain Christian Kllngenberg, formerly of the whaling schooner Olga, under Indict ment for the murder of Jackson D. Paul, chief engineer of the Olga, has arrived In this city, In charge of United States Marshal T. C. Powell, of Nome, Alaska, for trial. The shooting took place in 1905. Kllngenberg claims that the killing was done In self-defense, and that he was tried and acquitted of the charge once by the mounted po lice of Herschel Island, alo by two United States Court Commissioners, and once by the officers of a revenue cutter. His home is at Point Barrow, the most northern point on the continent where mall Is received but twice a year. He said: "When the last mall came. Imagine my surprise and sadness to learn that I was being hunted after, that I was called a pirate, and that I had wantonly and cruelly slain a defenseless man. I talked the matter over with my wife, a native, and friends, and decided at last to deliver myself up to the author ities. I provided well for my family and left them in the care of my friends, the natives. I loaded a small Nor wegian fishing-boat of 22-foot beam with provisions and started for Candle City, on Kotzebue Sound, a distance of nearly 800 miles. I took a course- be tween the floee and the ice, and Jour neyed for 18 days without seeing land. My provisions gave out, and I shot two polar bears and three walruses for food. Cape Lisbune, on the Alaskan Coast, was the first land I sighted. I had a pretty hard time on that voyage, and I guess I am the only man who ever made it alone in a small open boat. But I had to go then,' because I had to clear my name, and I figured also that I could clear myelf and be back with my family before the "Winter sets in. "Now," he continued, sadly, "I can not tell when I shall be able to start back." COTTU NOT MAKE BOAST GOOD Jap Says He Can Beat 800 White Men, hut Falls to Down One. OREGON CITY, Or., July 28. (Spe cial.) Three Japs and as many Ameri cana became embroiled in a mix-up on Main street in this city last night, and caused an uproar which resulted in the arrest of Theodore Miller and one of the little brown men, . who were re leased upon deposit of $25 each to ap pear 'before Recorder Dlmick Monday afternoon. The Japs came out of the Planet saloon and started across the street, when Miller, who was standing on the sidewalk, playfully heaved a brick at one of his friends, and the missile landed within a few feet of the Japs. Two of them turned and commenced to abuse Miller shamefully and explo sively, telling him that one Japanese could lick 300 Americans and threaten ing to kill him. The biggest of the three waved a brick frantically, but no damage was done, and the Japs finally started across the street. Miller's friends advleed him to punish the big Jap and aroused his ire. Walking to where the Jap stood, he proceeeded to show him that one American was more than a match for one Japanese. The proceedings were at this point inter rupted by the arrival of the police, who took the combatants Into custody. The other Japs started toward the Southern Pacific Depot, and one of them, meeting Tuck Surface, shook his fist in the face of the white man and was beaten for his pains. Thl was too much excitement for Orange Bar bur, and he started after the brown men and Indulged In some punishment on his own account. No other arrests were made. Several hundred-men gath ered to discuss the affair, and for a short while the street had the appear ance of a riot. The Japs are employed on the railroad.

FOUND DEAD IN LODGINGS Penniless Laborer Places Noose About His Neck, Fastens Rope to Bedpost and Dies With out a Struggle. Casper Streib, friendless and unknown in the city, committed suicide by hanging himself, to a bed post n his room, in the Standard rooming house, 131H North Sixth street, some time Saturday night or early yesterday morning. His body was found yesterday afternoon. Streib left no note or missive explaining his desire to die. Last Thursday night Streib applied to Mrs. Houser, landlady of the house, for a room. He was given a 26-cent room. Fri day morning when he got up he paid in advance for another night's lodging. He did the same thing Saturday morning and left the house ostensibly to go to work. Mrs. Houser did not hear him re turn Saturday night. Yesterday morning while on her rounds of the ho.u9e making up the beds she stopped athis door. She knocked, but received no response, and thought that Streib was still asleep. About noon she called again and got no response. About 2 o'clock, thinking that something was wrong, she again went to the room and knocked loudly. Several calls were unanswered, and by this time her suspicions were aroused. She got a chair and looked over the tran som. The sight that met her eyes was the nude' corpse of Streib hanging to tue bed post. Mrs. Houser ran to the telephone and summoned the police. The . officers ar rived, broke down the door and' entered the . room. They found that Streib had hanged himself to the bed post with a short piece of thin rope. His feet were touching the floor, but has hands at his side showed that he had made no effort to save himself, and that he had died almost without a struggle. The body was cold, and death had come hours before. Desk Sergeant Robinson took charge of the body, and notified the coroner. In the room was found a fireman's uni form, and the police at first thought that the man was a member of thelocal de partment. Inquiries at Are headquarters showed that Streib was not on the roll of the local department. A letter frpm a brother in California was the only clew to the man's identity. Only a few cents were found in the clothing, and diligent Inquiry by the police revealed nothing concerning Strelb's antecedents. It is not probable that any Inquest will be held. RAISES ASSESSED VALUES MARION COUNTY'S ASSESSOR DOUBLES PROPERTY. Railroads Placed at $80,000 a Mile and Timber Lands Materi ally Increased. SALEM, Or,, July 28. (Special.) Assessor Fred J. Rice, of Marion County, has raised the assessment of railroad properties, including rolling stock and other equipment, to 330,000 per mile, nearly double the rate of last year, and all timber land in the fcounty, including the Southern Pacific Land Grants lands and that in possession of other timber land monopolies, is as sessed according to the value of timber upn It at the rate of 50 cents per thousand feet. Up to last year, when Assessor Rice raised the rate upon the most valuable of the timber land in Marion County to an average of $5 to $9 rer acre, the assessed valuation upon til forests of this county was only $1.50 to $2.50 per acre. But Assessor Rice computed the' valuation upon reports of an ex perienced timber cruiser with the re sult that the valuations upon several sections of timber land will amount to $75 per .acre, while that which will run below $65 per acre is the exception rather than the rule. , 1 In placing these valuations upon rail road property and heretofore practi cally unassessed timbered lands Asses sor Rice disclaims any desire on his part to "sit down upon the corporate interests" or to be unduly severe upon them. He says that, when he increased the value of railroad property from $11,000 to ,-s,000 last year, he was of the opinion that it stuuld be doubled and now, since he nad previously de cided upon the $30,000 rate, he is con vinced that it is still too low from a standpoint of equality and may raise this rate to $60,000 next year, figuring upon the basis of actual valuation, which, he has determined, is between $65,000 and $75,000 per mile. As a result of having the timber lands in Marlon County cruised by an expert tlmberman. Assessor Rice finds that the 42,206 acres of timber owned by the Ore gon & California (Southern Pacific) runs from 30.000.000 to 80,000.000 feet per section, except in the burned areas, where the old assessment of $2.50 to $3' per acre is al lowed to stand, which, computed at 50 cents per thousand feet, brings the value up to from 523.50 to $62.50 per acre. The Southern Pacific, however, owns only a very small percentage of ' the timber wealth of this county. The rate of $30,000 per mile assessment upon railroad property applies only to the 44 miles of main line operated by the Southern Pacific, while the valuations of branch and other lines in this county range from $12,000 to $19,000 and $25,000. Other corporate properties in the county, such as telegraph and telephone lines, public franchises, etc., have been in creased proportionately with their actual values, so that the total assessed valu ation of all property in Marlon County will run far in excess of $300,000,000 this year, an increase of about 26 per cent over last year, the highest valuation in the county's history. It Is -expected that the railroad companies and other cor porate interests will attempt to secure a material reduction in the valuations fixed by Assessor Rice, but it is understood the other members of the County Equaliza tion Board are behind him In the move ment, as is also District Attorney John H. McNary, and the only chance they will have to secure a reduction. It would seem, wlll.be to establish their claims of excess valuations conclusively before the courts of the state. FLAX IN WILLA3IETTE VALLEX Eugene Bosse, Belgian', Expert, Finds Soil Adapted to Culture. SALEM. Or., July 28. (Special.) After over six years of fruitless endeavor to in- terest local capital in the possibilities" to be realized in the culture of flax, and the estblishment of a linen mill in this city to work the fiber up Into the finished pro duct, Eugene Bosse, the Belgian flax ex pert, who has demonstrated that flax equal to the product of any other country In the world can be produced in the Wil lamette Valley, has about given up hope of success in the establishment of a linen mill in Salem, and will turn his atten tion to Portland where there is capital In abundance. Samples of flax fiber from the Wil lamette Valley and finished products sent to the St. Louis World's Fair and the Lewis & Clark Exposition far outshone anything In their classes upon exhibit, not excepting the displays from Ireland, Bel gium, Wales, etc. Mr. Bosse is certain that he can procure at least 10,000 acres of the best Valley -land, suitable to flax culture, which will pay the farmer a greater profit upon his Industry with flax commanding from $12 to $15 per ton. ac cording to quality, than can be realized from wheat at 60 cents per bushel. This year Mr. Bosse has put in about 1000 acres of flax and hemp and is assured of a bounteous yield in both products, and in the Portland Cordage Company, he is certain of a profitable market for all of the flax fiber he can produce, while his hemp fiber Is in great demand by an Eastern manufactory at good prices. He is now constructing a large combined flax and hemp scutching mill, upon his farm east of this city, which will have a ca pacity of 1000 acres, or about 3000 tons of raw material per year, and he is now negotiating for the purchase of a new combined cleaning, threshing, retting and scutching machine, of but recent inven tion, with which he will be able to turn uul tons of fiber of all grades per DEAD OF THE NORTHWEST Mrs. J.
