the complaint had been taken up by
the Chamber of Commerce.
Harbormaster Speier had an inning
before the Commission yesterday when
he asked if haste could not be dis
played in starting work on the recrea
tion pier proposed for the foot of
Stark street. He pointed out that the
condition of that street-end stood forth
as the worst of any In the city: that
the present backm-ater from the Co
lumbia caused sewerage there to be
come stagnant; the street mas littered
and unsightly, and. worst of all. Stark
street would be selected by the Rose
Festival and Elks committees as the
official landing-place.
The complaint resulted In a discus

PORTLAND. May 2. (To the Edi
tor.) The Orcgonlan will find few suf
fragists who will agree with its sng
gestion this morning, that it Is not
fair to quote the failure of equal suf
frage in Colorado. In an effort to prove
that tho ballot In the hands of women
Is not tho cure-all that its leaders clal
of It. Usually, the suffrage leaders de
pend upon the suffragists of Colorado
to prove that suffrage Is a real help in
that state.
If. as your editorial puts It this
morning, "woman suffrage Is helping
and win continue to help. in Colorado,
perhaps you can explain why. with suf
fraue helping, and with four women
In the Legislature of that state, (the
largest number of women representa
tives in the hlstoryof the state), that t"e
four women, a few years ago. volei;
to legalize gambling and horse racing?
Why, with woman suffrage helping, is
the segregated district of Denver, an
eyesore to the country, and conditions
permitted there, that would not be per
mitted in civilized non-suffrage states?
Is It because Judge Lindsey tells us In
his volume "The Beast.' on page 308
that the, women leaders "in politics
are politicians; when they get their
nominations from tho corporation ma
chines, they do the work of the corpor
ations, and there Is almost no way, to
get a party nomination except from a
corporation machine."
PlirlHratloB Claim Doubted.
If the leaders of woman suffrage
will accept ?u-h nominations under
such corrupt conditions as Judge Lindsey
describes, why do the suffragists tell
its that with the. woman vote, will come
the purification of politics?
How manv more years must we wait
before we can quote conditions in Colo
rado, as an example of conditions under
woman suffrage? If tho women of
Denver are helpless In theiir endeavor
to rid the city of its moral sores, why
does tho National American Woman
finffrage Association flood the country
with circulars which . declare that
"Mothers need thejjallot to regulate tiie
moral conditions under which their
children must be brought up?
There is no reason for me to modify
what you term my "ra6h statement"
that, in the protection of wage-earning
children, non-suffrage states are far
ahead of the suffrage states. Not while
the Secretary of the National Labor
committee furnishes me with proof of
my statement. Conditions are not what
they should be in Florida and in Georg
ia, I grant, but they are Identical with
conditions In Colorado.
Noa-Suffrace States Escape.
Mr. Owen Lovejoy, Secretary of tho
National Child Labor committee, in his
report of the proceedings at Birming
ham, Ala., In March, lull, says: "The
states which do not require proof of
the child s age or at least any proof
worthy the name are Colorado,
Florida, Utah, Wyoming, Idaho, Georg
ia, etc." the four old suffrage states.
nd 14 other states mentioned by Mr.
Lovejoy. one of them. Wisconsin, hav
ing since corrected Its faulty child labor
law. Fourteen non-suffrage states, and
all the old suffrage states, quoted aa
examples of faulty child labor laws!
All the other non-suffrage states es
cape this Indictment by the National
secretary.
The National Child Labor commit
ter has prepared a model child labor
law for uniform legislation. The bill
contains 49 sections, and of these 4'J
sections. Wyoming, the oldest suffrage
state, contains none of them; Idaho,
none; Colorado, seven: Utah, eight;
Oregon contains 14; Wisconsin, 27!
Which would Indicate that facts would
put the child labor plank out of the
suffrage platform.
States I rs-rd to Walt.
If women have not voted in any
state long enough yet to show what
the final effort of suffrage will be, then
the men and women who oppose ex
perimental government, ask that ths
suffrage leaders wait until the expert
ment in the suffrage states will show
what the effect will be. before forcing
the ballot upon an unwilling electorate-.
I agree with you. that it is too early
to quote California, as the effect of
woman suffrage upon that state, and
beg to remind, you that I only cited
facts to prove that the women of San
Francisco were not availing them
selves of the ballot. In answer to your
argument of the day previous. In which
you maintained that they were "regis
tering about as numerously as the
men."
I grant you that it is difficult to
get the men to register. The man who
fails to register and to vote, makes
the machine possible. Will it aid mat
ters to add to this number countless
numbers of women who will not reg
ister and who will not vote?
1 do not believe that the last m-ord
haa been said In the child labor field,
but I do know, that In Boston, New
York. Cincinnati. Milwaukee and St.
Louis, the regulations for the protec
tion of child workers are better than
they are in any of the suffrage states
or cities. Miss Jane Addams bears me
out In this statement in her "New Con
science and an Ancient Evil," on page
Resrulatlom .Nullifies Lairs.
On page 36 of the same volume. Miss
Addams says, "the very existence of a
segregated district under police regu
lations means, of course, that the exist
ing law must be nullified or at least
rendered totally Inoperative. When po
lice regulation takes the place of law
enforcement, a species of municipal
blackmail Inevitably becomes intrenched."
Miss Addams exactly describes . the
condition In Colorado today. On page
81 of the same volume. Miss Addams
says: As yet Massachusetts is tne
only state which has appointed a spe
cial commission to consider the estab
lishment of a minimum Wage Board, al
though the Industrial Commission of
Wisconsin is empowered to Investi-
gate wages and their effect upon tne
standard of living."
On page 131 and 132 oi tne same
volume. Miss Addams sas, "this new
public concern for the welfare of certain
American cities nas resuuea in a munic
ipal milk supply. New York. Chicago,
Boston and other large towns, employ
hundreds of nurses each Summer to in
struct tenement house mothers upon the
car of little children.
Is there any such solicitude for the
children of the poor, in any of the
suffrage states?
On page 157, Miss Addams calls at
tention to the fact that "Kansas City
has Instituted a Department of Pub
lic Welfare, with power to regulate
places of amusement: a New York com
mittee has established model dance
balls: Milwaukee is urging the ap
pointment of commissions on public
recreations, while New York and Co
lumbus have already created them."
Suffrage Cities Not Mentioned.
"Why no mention of suffrage cities or
states?
On page 173. Miss Addams states that
the Massachusetts General Hospital is
the only hospital that has a social
service department to care for erring
m-omen. In the face of all the facts
presented In the volume, on page 198,
Miss Addams asks: "Would women
voters concur In the assumption that
every large city must either set aside
well-known district for the accommo
dation of prostitutes, or continually
permit it to flourish?"
The social evil thrives in Salt I-akn
City and. In Denver, as it thrives In
few American cities. It flaunts Its
vices In the faces of the civilized
world. But then we are told that wom
en have not been voting long enough
to help!
If the suffragists donH hurry with
the era of universal suffrage, the very
reforms they advocate will have been
accomplished by mere man in this
glorious United States of America.
I. T. MARTIN.
The plain implication from this ex
traordinary letter is that women are
a pretty tough lot who are eager to
vote in favor of vice, child labor, white
slavery and whatever other deviltry'
they can hatch lip. No doubt Miss
Martin has her own reasons for think
ing poorly of her sex, but we cannot
concur in her estimate. The women
whom we have the happiness to know
will not vote for white slavery, child
labor or gambling when they have ob
tained the right of suffrage. The so
cial conditions in Colorado, Wyoming
and Utah are unusually bad. They
are mining, cattle-raising and shesp
ranrhing communities. Colorado lias
been distracted with labor wars for
many years. Wyoming" was not long
ago controlled by a combination of
cattle thieves. Utah has had the Mor
mon problem on Its hands. Denver
has been tho stamping ground of the
smelter trust. By the snap Judgments
which Miss Martin makes upon con
ditions in these states she shows that
sho prefers to deal with the surface of
things, and her observations lose pro
portionately in value.
Where are the factories in Wyoming,
Utah or Idaho that thrive on child la
bor? Where arc the city tenement
mothers who need public instruction
in the care of infants? Is state regu
lation of city amusements needed in
Wyoming or Idaho, neither of which
has a town of 25,000 Inhabitants?
Woman suffrage is not a failure be
cause it does not provide unneeded laws.
Yet at the root of every social reform
which Miss Martin mentions In th
East or West lies the tireless effort of
some band oi women. Hampered a
they are by the lack of the ballot they
hare done wonders. With the ballot
tliey would do more. To deny them
the right to vote is to tie their hands

DEFENSE TAKES STAND
KEPUTATIOX OF MUTCH, MUR
DEKED MAX, TOLD IX TRIAL
Sixteen Witnesses for Oetinser DC'
clarc Victim of Homicide Hud
Violent IiKsition.
The defense yesterday devoted its
efforts in tho Oetlnger murder case to
proving the reputation and character
of E. W. Mutch, alias rrank Martin
the man killed by Oetlnger in the lat
tor's saloon, at 9 First street, on th
night of January 19. In all 16 wit
nesses were called and their testimony
was substantially to the same effect,
that Mutch was a "holy terror" when
under the Influence of liquor, as he
was on the night of the homicide,
according to several who have been
on the stand.
W. K. Scott told of the longshoremen
in the employ of Brown &. McCabe
once declaring that they would go on
strike If Mutch was not removed
rom the position of foreman over them
They won their point.
W. H. Souls, a former newspaper re
porter, who knew the dead man well
described him as a "fighting man"; W
I. Mail declared that Mutch tried to
pick" a fight with him on the day
receding the night of the shooting
O. Markstrom told of having been
beaten once by Mutch in a saloon and
Chris Lolllck said that he received
share of fistic attention from Mutoh
when lie went to Markstrom's assis
tance.
I B. Felcher, who was in Oetinger's
saloon the night Mutch was killed, said
that Mutch was emitting a "blizzard
of blasphemy" with Oetinger as the
recipient. S. H. Harris had heard
Mutch say, referring to Oetinger, "I'll
get that Dutchman some day." George
J. Qulnlan testified that Mutch once
tried to assault him with a chair and
I'ollreman Goltz said that he put a
stop to the trouble on that occasion.
Others who testified to the bad repu
tation of the victim of the shooting
were: fanford Hirsch, Carl Zimmerman
E. R. Rutherford, Detective Coleman,
John Knox. Petectlve Scow and Ernest
Johnson. Hirsch said that on the aft
ernoon of the night on which Mutch
met death he heard Oetlnger say that
he wished Mutch would keep away
from his saloon.
This testimony is being introduced
for the purpose of assisting the jurors
in determining which of the two men
was the aggressor. There were no eye
witnesses of the homicide and Oetlnger
declares that he shot In self-defense.
Police Captain Keller was recalled
by the defense to testify that there was
a rubber mat in tbe saloon and that It
Is possible that the body of Mutch may
have been dragged from behind the
bar over this mat.
Several witnesses had previously tes
tified thst marks on the floor indicated
that the body was dragged from a point
in front of the bar. Oetinger declares
that Mutch had come around behind
the bar to assault him. The attorneys
for the state and defense both consider
this an important point.

GREAT SUCCESS
Biggest Triumph in History
of Famous Health
Expert
LAUNCHES NEW IDEA
Cases Treated by Mail
That the new system of special treat
ments for various ills which has been
introduced here by I'rofessor James M.
Munyon, the noted health expert, has
proved a wonderful success has now
become apparent. Immense crowds of
people are now calling at the offices
of the noted "Apostle of Hope." most
of them being drawn there on the rec
ommednatlons of friends who had tried
this new treatment.
In a recent statement Trofessor Mun
yon said:
'My new system or lnaiviouat treat
ments adapted to particular cases Is
practically a new thing with me. It is
not a new idea, for I and my expert as
sociates have been planning and exper
imenting with this method for several
years, but we became so conndent of a
great and far-reaching success that we
have at last placed them on the gen
eral market. Our anticipations have
been fully Justified. We are having one
of the greatest successes In my ex
perience.
'We have probably treated more
cases of rheumatism, m us various
forms, than any other single class of
cases. Our success has been almost
invariable. We have put out a treat
ment for stomach trouble that has
brought startllngly satisfactory results,
We have cured literally hundreds of
ases of stomach trouble. Indigestion,
gas on the stomacn, snorxness oi
breath, dizziness, constipation, palpita-
ion of the heart, etc., right here In this
itv. Another of our most effective
reatments is for catarrh in Its various
forms. This treatment Is both internal
and external. The external treatment
consists of a patented inhaler device
which medicates the upper air passages
where ordinary medicines could never
reach, and the Internal treatment acts
on all of the organs affected by this
insidious and dangerous disease. Of
course, we have treatments ior many
ther ailments, but they are put up in
lvldually by my expert physicians for
each case. Altogether I am delighted
with the success of my new special
treatments."
Munyon s offices In Portland, are lo
cated on the second floor, rooms 4
nd 6, 362 Washington street, where
e has expert physicians in charge to
give free advice to the sick and ailing
from 9 in the morning to 8 at night.
