TAG SALE NETS TIDY SUM
Kual Suffrage Worker. rie.-od
Willi KcmiHs of Campaign.
As a result of the tag sale held In
Portland Saturday under auspices of
the College Equal Suffrage League, the
Oregon State Equal Suffrage Associa
tion and th Portland Equal Suffrage
League, more than 11000 was obtained
for financing the campaign for equal
suffrage In this state. The amount re
ceived Is far more than the workers
expected and they are pleased with the
result. They are also pleased with the
opportunity for gaining an Idea of the
attitude of voters toward equal suf
frage. I-eader of the movement believe
that the knowledge gained in this way
Is of more Importance to the csuse than
the financial returns. The results are
considered all the more gratifying as
only 25 solicitors were engaged. Work
ers made a systematic canvass of the
hotels, restaurants and office buildings.
The larger number of tags was. how
ever, sold on the streets. Among those
who participated In the tag sale were:
nr. and Mrs. Frank Cassldy. Rev. and
Mrs. Albert Ehrgott. Mrs. Hallle I.
Seeley, Mrs. A. C. Newell. Pr. Eugenia

In tho hall on the Base Line rond. "The
High Cost of Living" was the topic
for the day.
Miss Tlng'.e said a large saving ran
be made by careful purchasing. She
suggested that waste of material has
much to do with the high cost of liv
ing and that this may be eliminated
by the application of common senss
and intelligence.

FAMINE LETTER HIT

A second, "famine letter." reiterating
statements made in the letter of a lit

Issued from the Central Labor Council
warning Easterners to stay away from
Oregon. The first Intimation noted at
the office of state Immigration asent.
C. C. Chapman, of this second letter
was the receipt of clippings from East
ern newspapers In which the letter was
reprinted over the signature of A. V .
Ijvwrence. secretary of the Portland
Labor Council.
The letter follows:

Large Families Brought Here.
In many Instances men have brought
larse lamiliea to this new country of un

to ask the city and county officials to give
Idem bread to ktep their loved ones Iron,
the awful pans, of starvation. This con
dition Is prevalent all over Oregon. From
tha widely advertised Medford In Southern
Oregon, a city of li.OOo Inhabitants, comes
the message that a thousand men are un-

Mr. Chapman, In behalf of the State
Immigration Commission, has prepared
the following letter to Mr. Lawrence,
protesting against the publication of
the "famine letter" and urging that
steps be taken to counteract its ef

In effect, all or these letters and prods

giving tha country at large a totally false

cers of other states ami of Canada have

awav from Oregon. Newspapers and period
Hale have quoted your letters as alleged
etkteme that crime and destitution reign
In our slate Prompted by a desire to
minimise emigration of farmers, business
men of Eastern communities have distorted
vour letter Into being proof positive that
Oregon Is a barren wilderness, thai there
are no opportunities for those who sre
willing to toll on the land and that our
state is ehlefiv Inhabited bv a robber popu
lation which subsists by preying upon and
plundering; hoineseekers and Investors.
It was Incredible to me that any organ
ization of Oregon eltisens could dellberately
eiaxgerate. falsify and mlsrepreaenl. either
to lure people here or to slander the state.
I asked you personally whether you be
lieved all that waa set forth In the first
letter snt out over vour slgnsture. You
lold m you did not believe it all. that It
was formulated by a committee and adopted
bv your oi anlr-nlon; that while you knew

direction of your association.
First Inciter Not Defended.
I appeared before sr special committee of
vour body upon Invitation of the Governor
of this state. At that conference not one
man present was willing to stand and de
lend every statement In the letter ss true.
Justification was offered on the ground thst
It contained some truth: thai It would tend
to kep away a class of population which Is
an admitted burden to our city and that
It was reprisal against unscrupulous realty
dealers and employment agencies who were
enemies of union labor. You apparently
Bdmltted that the commercial and develop
ment organisations of Oregon were striving
with honest purpose and patriotic motives.

BOAT MAKES LAST RUN
OKEGOV WOLF XOW WILL BE

Engines Work Perfectly as Speed
OaH Passes Before Big Crowd
on Bridges.
The last run of the world's champion
motorDnat, Oregon won. was
yesterday afternoon on the Willamette
In front of the city docks, which were
crowded with hundreds of spectators.
The bridges were lined with people
out for a last look at the boat that
had performed the wonderful feat of
heating the record of the Pixie, the
former champion, by more than two
minutes oveR. a 30-mile course some
weeks ago.
Although not racing against time,
the speeder ws nevertheless driven
over the course at near 40 mil.es an
hour, and tha engine which has re
sponded so well in all the races refused
to balk yesterday and tho hum of the
motor was steady over the whole
course, x
This wonderful engine, the work of
the builder of the boat. Johnny Wolff,
will bo removed soon and placed In the
new boat, the "Nineteen Fifteen," a
26-foot boat which is now almost fin
ished. The old boat was S8 feet long,
and the new boat, which will be a
monoplane is expected to add about
four or mor'- miles to the present rate.
Motion pictures of the boat were
taken and one set. which wi'l be fin
ished up by I. H. Morgan, is to be ex
hibited as a section of one of tho
weekly film.in all the cltioj of. the
Kast.
Johnny Wolfi and Orth Mathiot. the
17-year-old pilot of the speed marvel,
piloted tho boat yesterday and. al
though the noise of the craft would
not let them hear It. they received
much applause from tho enthusiasts.
A still better boat will be built for
the world's championship races to be
held In connection with the Panama
Pacific Exposition in 1911. according to
George S..ShepherT. one of the owners
cf the present Wolf.
The exposition committee has vir
tually assured Shepherd that a purse
of $!i0,000 will be put up as a bait

make It an International affair in
reality and would furnish the Pacific
Coast with some real boat racing.
NORTH MAY BE INVOLVED
Attorney for Hnniphrys Brothers
Will Trv, to Shift Crime.
That an effort may be made to shift
the murder of Mrs. Elizabeth Griffith,
which occurred near Philomath, last
June, back upon "Dr." Kdward North,
a traveling dentist, once arrested for
the deed, but released. Is hinted by at
torneys for George and Charles Humph
rys. who are. scheduled to go to trial
for tho crime April 23. following confes
sions made by them, covering this mur
der and numerous others.
While it is not likely that North will
again be put upon his defense, it is be
lieved that the evidence pointing to
him can be used to create sufficient rea
sonable doubt to make the conviction
of the) Humphrys brothers impossible). It
Is to probe this and other evidence that
the attorneys fought for a continuance
to the date set, consenting, in consid
eration of this favor, to join the Issues
In the two cases as one Instead of de
manding separate trials.

the brothers, accounting for the mys

of persons, are held by their attorneys
to be worthless, both on account of the
mental conditions of the prisoners and
the manner in which the confessions

It Is said an effort will be made to
exclude these confessions and to force
the state to prove its case by external

Vdig into the corners and drive out the decayed food particles.
Gold Dust is the sanitary dish washer.1 It not only cleans
the surface, but digs deep after hidden particles of dirt and
'kills the germs of decayed iood which ordinary dish-water
overlooks. Gold Dust sterilizes as well as cleanses.
Besides Going the

or any other cleanser
can, Gold Dust will save
just half the time you
spend in washing
dishes.

qualities in a ' perfectly
