EYES ON SUFFRAGE BILL
WOMEV OF WASHINGTON IN
TERESTED IX MEASURE.
Mrs. May Hutton Declares Success
in This State Would Strengthen
Cause Across Line.
That the outcome of the woman's suf
frage amendment which will be decided
today is being awaited with intense in
terest by the women of Washington was
the opinion expressed yesterday by Mrs.
May Arkwrijcht Hutton. of Spokane, who
has arrived in Portland to participate In
the automobile parade on Wednesday.
Mrs. Hutton Is president of the Spokane
Knual Suffrage Association and had a
prominent part in the movemen under
taken several years ajro in Idaho which
resulted in the enfranchisement of wom
en in that state.
"The women of Washington." said Mrs.
Hutton yesterday, "believe that if the
FUffrage amendment shall pass at tomor
row's election, it will be largely die to
the lifelong efforts of Mrs. Abigail Scott
Duniway. She is regarded as the leader
of the equal suffrage movement In the
Pacific Northwest, and its success would
be a fitting reward for her years of splen
did leadership. The women of Washing
ton are awaiting the result of the vote on
the equal suffrage amendment today. Its
fate will largely determine the success or
failure of the campaign now being car
ried on in the State of Washington for
the enfranchisement of women.
"If the women of Oregon are to re
ceive the suffrage, the same privilege will
not long be withheld from the women of
the sister state. The women of Idaho al
ready enjoy equal rights: the women of
British Columbia will undoubtedly be
granted that privilege at the next session
of Parliament. Today's election will de
termine if the right of women to partici
pate in the lawmaking power shall be
further extended. In Washington the ad
vocates of the measure have been en
couraged from the fact that a large per
centage of the voters are of Scandina
vian descent. In Norway. 8weden and
Denmark women have long had a share
in the public, affairs of those nations, and
the immigrants from Scandinavia are
known to be favorable to the enfran
chisement of women."

BIG FIGHT ON ANNEXATION
LARGE DISTRICT MAY COME
INTO CITY.
Ten Thousand People Will Be Added
to Population if Measure Is
Pacsed Today.
Tn the Mount Scott district, where the
people of four sections will vote on the
question of annexation, this question hss
overshadowed all others involved in the
election today. Yesterday both sides were
busy presenting their final arguments.
The advocates of annexation are much
better organized than those opposed.
They formed the Mount Scott Annexation
Club, with O. .N. Ford as president, sev
eral months ago. and have conducted a
systematic campaign through public meet
ings and other means and have been suc
cessful In setting forth the benefits that
are expected from a union with the city.
The opposition has held no public meet
ings, but has conducted a quiet campaign
against annexation.
Yesterday both forces were at work
from early morning until late at night,
and will be at work at the polls today.
As one result there will be a full vote at
precincts Nos. 95 and 96. on both sides of
the Foster road at atewart Station.
These polling places are about ISO feet
apart. The proposed boundary lines In
clude all of Woodstock and extend east
ward to Gray's Crossing. It was origin
ally intended to take in Lents district,
but the opposition was too pronounced
and hence Gray's Crossing waa made the
dividing line.
It is estimated that there are 10.000 peo
ple in the -territory it is proposed to an
nex. The fight for annexation has been
made on the need for Bull Run water,
sanitation, police regulation, street im
provements and other similar advantages.
Special emphasis has 7,een placed on the
water supply, which it has been asserted
is at present Inadequate. The opposition
urges that while annexation will come
in time, it would not be beneficial at the
present; that a great many people have
gone Into that district, bought lots and
built homes on the Installment plan, for
which they are now making payment, and
increased taxation by coming into the
city would be burdensome; that It will be
some time in the future before the people
there can expect to get Bull Run water;
that the people can get what Improve
ments in the way of streets and fir- pro
tection they want now as wei. as they
could through annexation.
The annexationists point out that the
sooner the district comes in. the sooner
It will get Bull Run water, and they also
say that the district should come in now
and assist Portland in building the second
Bull Run pipeline. They scout the idea
of increasing taxation hurting anybody,
asserting that whatever Increase there
may be will be ofset by lower water
rates.
Boys to Make Tests
With Wireless
Member of I'rnjgxeftAlve dub Will
Kndpavor to Send M eftnate-rii From
Cnu noil Crest to Mount Tabor.
THE Progressive Club, a boys' or
ganization for the study of wire
less telegraphy. Is preparing to give
an exhibition of experiments in Port
land, Including rather remarkable un
dertakings for boys of 18. It is their
hope successfully to send messages
from the observatory on Council Crest
to Mount Tabor a distance of sis miles
and In order to do this, they have
sent to Boston to obtain some of the
latest Instruments. The club was or
ganized only six months ago, and 10
of the 30 members have constructed
their own wireless sets. The club Is
devoted almost wholly to the study o?
wlreles telegraphy. It has already
given a number of public exhibitions,
and the boys who were In charge of
them, Charles Austin. Charles Fine,
Stanley Savage and Leland James, have
been complimented on splendid results
obtained. Among the Portlanders in
terested in the welfare of the club is
Dr. Ralph Walker. He has given ma
terial aid to the club by the many In
structive lectures delivered on wireless
telegraphy. He is well acquainted with
the subject, and has enlightened the
members on many questions. The op
erator in charge of the wireless appa
ratus on the steamer Rose City has
allowed the boys the privilege of ex
amining it evenings, when most of the
sending and receiving of messages Is
done. At the regular meetings the
Progressive Club members discuss the
results of their experiments. In thi3
way they help one another to overcome
the almost endless trouble encountered
in constructing their "sets."
The Progressive Club is an offspring
of the Current Events Cluly, organized
by Miss J. H. Millard, of the Portland
Library Association. When this club
gave an exhibition of wireless teleg
raphy for the purpose of attracting
new members, so many attended that
a new club was formed, and later both
clobs combined. For this reason the
Progressive Club meets every alternate
Friday.
The Progressive Club is open , to
membership for any young man over
14 years of- age who is interested In
wireless-tiVegraphy, .current events or
any scientific ubject. Those who wish
to join are Invited to attend the meet
ings held in the children's room of the
Portland Public Library every Friday
evening at 7:45 o'clock. The following
are the officers of the club; President,
Theodore MacLaren; vice-president, J.
W. Kellaher: treasurer, Roy Wilehart;
secretary, William Anderson. The
other members are:
Dr. Ralph Walker, Miss J. H. Mil
lard, Claude Bristol, Ernest Allen, Le
land James, Harry Fogarty, Charles
Austin, Stanley Savage, Charles Fine,
William Christenson, Donald McClaire,
Charles Holderman, Fred Brace, Karl
MartzlofT, Andrew Hlne, Bernard Mer
cer, Leland Armstrong, Miss Maude An

FACTS ABOUT CONFERENCE
D. A. Wattcrs Tells ot the Men and
Ways of This Body.
PORTLAND, May 30. (To the Editor.)
I have read with great pleasure and de
light your very able and fair editorials
on the General Conference and Methodism
which have appeared in The Oregonlan
of recent issues. They come from the
pen of a ready writer and one who is evi
dently acquainted with Methodist history
and usage. There are. however, segre
gated events reported by the public press
which, to the unschooled In the history.
Ideals and work of the General Confer
ence, when taken alone, give an erroneous
and consequently detrimental impression.
Having been a member of this body in the
recent past and had ample opportunity to
know the inside workings, permit me to
speak a word concerning Its character
and work.
The present General Conference, now in
session in the city of Baltimore, Is com
posed of an equal number of laymen and
ministers, nearly 800 In all. They come
from all parts of the world, representing
many nationalities. They have arisen
from all classes of society, from the cabin
to the palace. They are great and godly
men. They are men of peace and judg
ment. The third house gossip no more
represents the character and work of this
honorable body of men than does the
third house represent the character and
aim of our matchless Congress of the
I'nited States. Methodism is democratic
and has grown up with the country. Keep
ing in touch with the people, it has a his
tory parallel with the Government. We
are under command to love and serve all
men. We have appealed to the masses,
and from the masses we have come and
with the masses we remain. We believe
in all races, classes and bloods, but reject
caste. We would give, every boy the best
chance possible to make of himself the
best possible man. and consequently a
good citizen, and to every girl the same
chanc.
The church represented by this General
Conference has a brief history. Three
ministers' lives more than cover the whole
of It throughout the world. John Wesley
tire founder, who died In 1789. William
Watters, born n 1751 and died In 1828,
who was the first native American itin
erant of Methodism, and John Flinn, a
venerable, mucn-beloved nd highly-respected
citizen of our city, who Is now In
his ninety-second year. These lives over
lap each other. Watters' life overlaps
John Wesley's S8 years and Flinn overlaps

THROUGH CONNECTION
Watters' life 12 yeans. The years of Wat
ters and Fllnn more than cover all of
American Methodism.
The church has not reached her present
high eminence on flowery beds of ease.
She has been antagonized from the begin
ning. The denominations opposed our
rise and progress on doctrinai differences
snd because of our peculiar usages. They
all respect us now and we love them, and
yet we have not changed a single doc
trine, all remaining as delivered to us by
John Wesley. Our usages have changed
somewhat, proving our adaptability to
new conditions and the progress of man
kind. The pastoral address of tho Bish
ops delivered to the General Conference
Is proof positive of the comprehensive
view taken of the universal Interests of.
the human race.
Our Bishops are General Superintendents
and travel throughout the world and there
is no class of men who have a more per
fect knowledge of the moral, religious,
educational, civil and commercial condi
tions of the world than have thrfse men.
When, after four years of travel, study
and careful observation, they come up to
the General Conference with a report of
the quadrennium touching such Interests
as reforms, civic righteousness, temper
ance, divorce, polygamy, the cry of the
child, peace, the workingmen, trades
unions, church union, state of the coun
try, progress of Christianity and a great
number of kindred subjects, who will say
they have not a right to be heard by ell
well-disposed and thinking people? They
are heard. They are gladly heard, and
their conclusions have weight with the re
former, the statesman and the. financier.
The ideals and aim of the General Con
ference for the elevation of mankind are
the common property of all good citi
zens. It stands for house-cleaning: for
clean men, clean homes and clean gov
ernment. It stops not with things temporal, hut
In the spirit of Christ, with the message
of Christ, comes to the lowly, the sor
rowing, the fallen. It declares the hope of
heaven and immortal life. It is a legis
lative body. It is the law-making body of
the church, and because of this fact It is
often more demonstrative than other re
ligious assemblies devoid of legislative
right and wholly of conventional char
acter. There Is debate. There is spirited
debate of tho highest order. There are
politicians there, for Methodists do not
believe in the ascetic life. but. that hav
ing a good thing, they should give It to
the world. In it also are statesmen,
Governors, Senators, P.epresentatives,
scholars, scientists and philosophers.
These varied types of men naturally
give color to debate. Is It a sin to
be a politician? Away with the Idea
that everything that Is political is un
christian. Every good thing belongs to
the kingdom of God. In my observance
of the General Conference doings I found
no ground for the accusations often mad
by persons without knowledge. I saw
faults. I heard slips. I heard words tint-

Mr. Hamilton, while holding the office of Railroad Commis

orders, without expensive litigation, and during his two-year
term, made a record for fairness and honest- that has never been
questioned. Mr. Hamilton's long residence in Oregon and his
familiarity with local conditions gives him a decided advantage
over a newcomer in the state, as he is perfectly familiar with the
needs of the people, and wilh what should be demanded from the
railroads to satisfy these needs.
He has long been urging the extension of the present rail
