SUFFRAGE CROWDS
POSTPONE DINNER
Chautauqua Discussion More
Alluring Than Well-Filled
Lunch-Baskets.
"VOTES FOR WOMEN" TOPIC
Miss Helen Varlck Bosvrell, of New
York, and Mrs. Mary Wood Are
Speakers Dr. Wilson Talks
Against Movement.
GLADSTONE PARK, July 16. (Spe
cial.) Lunch baskets were abandoned,
noon-day camp meals became cold, and
Chautauqua restaurant men waited In
vain today, for "Woman Suffrage"
absorbed the attention of all. The
forum hour for "Women's day" started
"suffrage" on a free and unrestricted
course, at 11 A. M., and the meeting
lasted until 1:30 P. M. Then there
was a rush for lunch baskets and
within 40 minutes the 1500 friends of
the movement again were in the audi
torium to hear the speaker of the
afternoon. Miss Helen Varick Boswell.
the young woman chosen by President
Taft for Women's Club organization
work in Panama.
Suffragists, anti-suffragists and a
few "non-committants" thronged the
auditorium, and though It was a "suf
frage day," those opposed to the move
ment and who dared to face the "Votes
for Women" contingent, were permitted
to voice their reasons why women
should not be allowed the privilege of
the ballot. Among those who dared
was Dr. Clarence True Wilson of
Portland.
Mrs. Coe Presides.
The morning hour beginning at 11
o'clock was in charge of the state
league, of which Mrs. Abigail Scott
Duniway is president. In her absence
Mrs. Henry Waldo Coe presided. Under
the leadership of Mrs. Rose Coursen
Reed, the woman's chorus of Washing
ton High School gave two well re
ceived numbers, one being the "Votes
for Women" chorus. Helen Miller Senn
read an original poem from the pen
of Mrs. Duniway.
Following. Mrs. Mary Wood, one of
the visiting club delegates from New
York, spoke on the legal aspect of suf
frage. Mrs. Senn gave a satire of the
anti-suffrage speaker that won ap
plause. Dr. Luther Dyott. of Portland,
spoke on the relation of suffrage to
democracy. Mrs. Sara Bard Field
Ehrgott closed the programme wnn a
brief panoramic view of the awaken
ing of women, of which suffrage, she
asserted, was only a local expression.
She asserted that the withholding of the
vote from women prevented tne ap
plication to society of its most bene
ficial force.
Miss Boswell. of New "York, talked on
the suffrage movement, taking occasion
to criticise the school system in Pana
ma, which she investigated for the
Government a few years ago. She set
forth woman's progress in this coun
try, adapting her talk especially to the
industrial conditions in America today.
She argued that through equal suffrage
these conditions would be effectively
remedied.
Dr. Wilson Takes Opposition.
Mrs. Sarah Evans then called for
the opposition or the "antis" and Dr.
Wilson heroically responded to the call,
laying especial stress on the old Idea
that woman s spnere is me nome aim
not the ballot."
Miss Glesha Breckenridge followed
Dr. Wilson, again taking up the banner
of the suffragists. Miss Breckenriage.
delegate from Kentucky, answered
the argument that women should not
ote because they cannot ngm. ana
then responded to the counter-argu
ment that women fight too much, parti
cularly . in England. Miss Brecken
ridge told of the suffrage movement in
Kentucky and pointed out particularly
the improvement In the school system
of her own state, after women were
allowed to vote.
The evening programme was in
charge of Mrs. Unruh of the state wo
men's Christian Temperance Union. A
musical programme preceded the lec
ture of Mrs. Florence Atkins, oi iNasn
ville. Tenn.. on "Temperance."
Another feature of the afternoon was
the discourse given by Judge Corliss,
of Portland, before the bnanespeare
Club, at 4 P. M-. on "King Lear, fro
fessor Bassett gave a talk at the same
hour on "A Comparison of bnakes
peare's Men." Tomorrow the club will
eive a picnic luncheon for a large num
ber of their friends Interested in the
Shakespeare study.
