WOMEN ORGANIZE LEAGUE
Aid for Sisters Fighting for Ballot,
Aim of Local Workers.
Following the lecture before the
Women's Clubs of Portland at the Y.
M. C. A. last night, at which A. E. Geb.
hardt closed the series of addresses for
the present season, women who had
served as clerks In the recent election
and others who are Interested In the
extension of woman suffrage met and
organized a Suffrage Extension
League for the purpose of assisting
in the suffrage movement In other
states.
Miss Helen Gillespie was eleeted
president. Mrs. George McMillan sec
retary and Mrs. W. P. Strandborg
treasurer. The members declared that
they Intend to make the organization
statewide and will carry on a cam
palgn to Increase the membership at
once to 1000 In Portland alone.
Falrley and Hayden Into control at the
City Hall. As an indirect result the
removal or reduction to subordinate
position of six other department heads
and employes. Including the chiefs of
fire and police, is more than a prob
ability.
While they deny that there is an
avowed agreement among them to
make any changes whatever in the
city government organization, it is be-
lleved to be a tacit understanding that
Commissioner Hayden, when he be
comes head of the public works de
partment under the secret agreement
divulged Monday, will not only dis
charge A. W. Swanson. superintendent
of the public works department, but
will remove Grant O Kleffe, general
street foreman, and F. M. HIatt, head
of the municipal asphalt plant.
Coates has already threatened to re
move Chief of Police Doust and appoint
Swenson In his place, and will, it Is
believed, reduce or dismiss Fire Chief
Weeks. Chief Building Inspector
George Mackle. Plumbing Inspector
Chlsholm. Electrical Inspector W. A.
Davis and other lesser employes not
jrotected by civil service.
Weeks and Chlsholm cannot be re
moved from the city service entirely.
but merely reduced to the ranks, since
they are protected by civil service in
the subordinate positions which they
constructed and maintained between
Koseburg and Myrtle Point to replace
the two so-called trails now linking
Coos and Douglas Counties, was the
unanimous opinion of a half hundred
good roads advocates 'who assembled
at the Koseburg Commercial Club
rooms Monday.
It was argued that it is better to
maintain one good road than two half
kept highways that could only be
traveled with comfort during a few
months in the year. To this end It
was suggested that the old Marshtield
road be abandoned as far as the two
counties were concerned and that a
concentrated effort be made s,o to im
prove the Myrtle Point road that It
may be traveled with ordinary ease
during 12 months of the year.
While It was practically decided
greatly to Improve the Myrtle Point
road it was deemed necessary to ap
point a committee of 16 men to work
out the preliminary details, and there
by ascertain the most feasible way to
bring about a materialization or. tns
DroJect.
On this committee were appointed I
A. Roberts, A. D. Morrison,' Judge
Coke, Hugh McClain, Ira Bartle,
George Topping, O. A. Trowbridge and
E. E. Weekly of Coos County, and
Henry Harth, O. P. Coshow, Henry
Booth, A. C. Marsters, Lee Wimberly,
C. D. Shoemaker, E. B. Stuart and
George Houck, of Douglas County. The
committee probably will meet ana
work out Its plans within the next two
weeks.
From Portland to t h e
Sandy River lies one of
the most fertile valleys
on the entire Pacific
Coast. Surpassing in its
advantages any terri
tory adjacent to any
other city In the United
States.
Its good roads are arteries of
trade and avenues of pleas
ure. Broad, macadam! zed,
well-ballasted avenues reach
out in all directions, bringing
even the most distant parts in
close touch with Portland.
Electric trains, with
rapid service, make this
beautiful and fertile val
ley one of P o r 1 1 a n d's
most accessible suburbs. .
In this valley there is no
gamble with fortune. The
c o n d 1 1 ions are so favorable
that success Is certain the
prices are based on what the
land will produce. They are
so reasonable and terms are
so easy that the crop returns
will pay for the land before
the contract period expires,
and leave a surplus.

movement in other states, and others
announced their Intention of doing
likewise. Women who serve In the
coming election are planning to make
the same use of the pay they receive
for their services at that time.
In the suffrage extension movement
from Oregon, active steps have been
taken In several other states. More
than 200 pounds of literature, pennants
and other material have been sent to
Pennsylvania and a large amount of
suffrage campaign material has also
been sent to Texas.
The lecture that preceeded the or
ganization of the women dealt with
the preferential ballot under the new
charter and Judge Oebhardt gave a
chalk talk on the methods of comput
ing the results of the election. His
statements were disputed by W. C.
Benbow at the close of the lecture,
when the meeting was thrown open
to questions, the dispute being over
the Interpretation or the term "ma

the pretense that the train has been
