THE MORNING OREGONIAN, - TUESDAY, FEBRUARY 3, 1914.
FACTORY WOMEN
PLEAD TO WILSON
Representatives of Toilers Ask
President to Aid Suf
frage Cause.
500 IN DEMONSTRATION
Station's Executive Plainly Depressed
as IIo Tells Them He Cannot
Urge Congressional Action Un
til Democratic Party Acts.
WASHINGTON. Feb. 2. Women
workers who toil in the mills, sweat
shops and the factories of the Nation
pleaded with President Wilson today
for his assistance to the cause of
woman suffrage. The President re
gretfully told them, as he did a dele
gation last December, that he could not
urge anything on Congress which had
not received the organic consideration
of tho Democratic party.
Today's demonstration not the brass
band( tho street procession, the ' col
ored pennants and battle flags of the
cause but the tale of hardship, of
the struggle to live cn low wages, of
the sanitariums for those who sick
ened at their work and the heart
breaking tragedies of poverty affect
ed thy f'resldent deeply.
As tho delegation left the executive
ofices, discouraged and disappointed
because they obtained no positive aid,
they did not know that the President
himself was depressed, perhaps even
more than they, as he went to lunch
eon with his family. He told his
friends afterward that he wished he
oould help, but saw no way to do It.
There is every reason to believe, how
ever, that the day gave added stim
ulus to the Presidents desire for early
, legislation on social Justice and indus
trial reform mentioned In his first an
nual message.
Five hundred women old and young
most of them plainly dresBed, but
earnest and determined, went to the
White House, but only a committee of
25. with five speakers, gained audience
with the President, the others wait
ing until the argument had ceased and
Mr. Wilson asked to shake hands with
all.
In voices often choked with emotion
the five speakers recited a tale of mod
ern industry, which, they said, knew no
chivalry; where old and young women
worked side by side wtih men for in
adequate wages and under conditions
that undermined health.
Representatives of the weavers, the
laundresses, the capemakers, the hat
makers, garment-workers and other
trades in ten Eastern states addressed
tho President. Mrs.- Glen-dower Evans,
of Boston, one of the leaders of the
Congressional union for woman suf
frage. Introduced them in turn and
each presented a plea from her own
viewpoint.
The President listened attentively to
6Peeches, often murmuring sympa
thetically. Persons close to . the President say
he. believes it is a problem for the
states to decide, although there Is rea
son to. believe he never has made up
his mind definitely on the merits of the
question. He does not feel It incum
bent upon him, however, to take a
stand on it until the Democratie party
has fully considered it,, and this is the
answer which he is determined to give
to all delegations of suffragists who
come to see him In the future.
GOVERNORS WILL CONFER
Secretary Iane Plans Discussion of
Carey-Act Projects.
OREGONIAN NEWS BUREAU, Wash.
Jngton, Feb. 2. Secretary Lane is
sending letters to' Governors of all
Western states, inviting , them to meet
him and- directors of the Reclamation
Service a Salt Lake' in the near fu
ture, to discuss a plan whereby the
Federal Government, through the Rec
lamation Service, can co-operate with
states in completing worthy Carey act
projects which have come to grief
through lack of financial backing.
The Secretary is much ' impressed
with the promised success of the co
operative projects already undertaken
in Oregon, and thinks that only by
Government aid can several unsuccess
ful and incompleted Carey act projects
be dragged from-the mire.
Mr. Lane was urged by the Attorney
General of Idaho today to co-operate
In completing three Carey act projects
in that state, and "intimated he would
be willing to do so after he has con
ferred with Western Governors. The
date of the conference has not yet been
determined.
NEW EYE ON GOVERNORSHIP
Attorney McMahan, of Salem, Con
siders Entering Primary Race.
ROSEBURG. Or., Feb. 2. (Special.)
That he may enter the contest for the
Progressive nomination for Governor
fit the primary election to be held in
May, was the statement of Attorney
L. H. McMahan, of Salem, here today.
"The candidates thus far announced
for Governor seem to evade making
known their platforms," said Attorney
McMahan. "They deal almost wholly
with generalities and in common de
clare they are in favor of law enforce
ment. I. believe the next Governor of
Oregon will be elected through per
sonality and platform and not because
of his party affiliations. In the event
1 decide to become a candidate, every
man and woman in the state will be
given knowledge of where I stand on
the several issues."

cuit Judge Kavanaugh adjourned ' the
criminal court last night without
having completed the Jury to try the
case against Joe Mossl, charged with
the murder of an unidentified tramp on
his ranch near Troutdale. The deed
was committed last November.
When court adjourned last night tho
jury box was filled with jurors passed
for cause, but the state had exercised
oryy one of its six peremptory chal
lenges, and the defense but four of its
12. It is believed the completed Jury
will be sworn before noon today, and
the trial proceed. .
Mossi was Indicted on a. charge of
second-degree murder after the shoot
ing of a tramp who had taken quarters
for the night In a cabin on Mossi's
ranch near Troutdale, the arrest of the
rancher being made after the shooting

a companion had made camp for the
night.

the Michigan copper strikers. It was
decided to change the form of the
Mine Workers' Journal to that of a

ED RAND OUT OF RACE
BAKER SHERIFF FEARS DISRUP
TION IX DEMOCRATIC RANKS.
Reaction of Governor West's Move
Against Copperfield Anticipated.
Deputy to Run.
BAKER, Or., Feb. 2. (Special.)
Alarmed by a belief that Governor
West's recent action at Copperfield had
so disrupted the Democratic party In
Eaker County as to make, his re-election
doubtful, . Ed Rand, Sheriff, has
retired from the race and George A.
Herbert, one of his deputies, to-day an
nounced his candidacy for the Uemj
cratlc nomination. Sheriff Rand has
not yet made a formal announcement
of his retirement from the race, but
Mr. Herbert had said only a week ago
that he would not enter the race until
Mr. Rand definitely told him to do so
and announced his own retirement.
Mr. Rand is in Salem, having gone
there yesterday with Marshall Lockett,
a cattle thief, who is to serve a term
of from one to 10 years. An announce
ment from him is predicted on his re
turn. Lea-ding Democrats feared that Mi
Rand's candidacy would cause a seri
ous split In the Democratic party here.
The belief is that there are not enough
Democrats in the county who support
West to make a candidate standing for
his policies a contender, while it is
thought one opposing him would also
have trouble defeating a strong Re
publican. Politicians, therefore, pre
vailed on Sheriff Rand to withdraw In
favor of a man who has not been mixed
in factional differences which have
arisen out of the Copperfield incident.
Mr. Herbert was Sheriff of Wasco
County, from 1886 to 1890. He has been
a deputy for six years.

SUFFRAGIST REFUSES TO SETTLE
TAXES AS "HIM" OR "IT."
Dr. Shaw Plans. Legal Fight to Prove
She Is Neither "It" Nor "Him," as
Designated by State.
PHILADELPHIA, Feb. 2. Who is an
"It," and what is an "It,"' are ques
tions being asked by Dr. Anna Howard
Shaw, president of the National Worn,
ans' Suffrage Association, in connec
tion .with her refusal to declare the
value of her personal property for
taxation. The blank sent Dr. Shaw to
bo filled out called for a declaration
on personal property owned by "him"
or "it," and the suffrage leader argues
that as she is neither a "him" nor an
"it," she is therefore exempt.
When Dr. Shaw refused to declare
the value of her property at Moylan,
Pa., the County Commissioners placed
upon it an assessed valuation of
$30,000. This, according to Miss Lucy
Anthony, her secretary, is nearly four
times Its actual value.
"The blanks we received on which
Dr. Shaw was to make her declaration,
called for personal property owned by
him" or if," said Miss Anthony today,
"and I have never known an if to pay
any kind of taxes. 'If usually refers
to animals or inanimate objects, and
I never knew the state to demand
taxes of them."
Miss Anthony intimated that Dr.
Shaw, who Is now on a lecture tour,
probably would start a legal battle
over the question of "it."

VILLA PREPARES TO
ATTACK TORREOfl
12,000 Troops Await Order to
"Fire" Garrison Now
Is Surrounded.
RATIONS ARE DISPATCHED
Commander Leaves for Cbibaabua
Where, Alter Several Days, He '
"Plans to Oeder Army to
March on Federals.
JUAREZ. Mexico. Feb. 2. With his
Larmy of 12,000 rebels already advanced
to points north of Torreon and await
ing word to open the attack on the fed
eral garrison In that city. General
Francisco Villa planned to leave .to
night or early tomorrow for Chihuahua,
whence, after a stay of several days,
he will march soma to direct the open
ing of the battle.
How long Villa will-remain in Chi
huahua will depend upon the rapidity
with which trainloads of ammunition
and rations can be dispatched south
ward. The rebel leader probably will
not appear on the field before Torreon
until everything is ready for the open
ing of the attack.
Rebels Snrronnd City.
A courier who arrived from Torreon
said the rebel advance guards already
had surrounded the city, but that Gen
eral Refugio Velasco's federal soldiers
had not opened fire. Th i courier said
the rebels were adopting their usual
methods of surrounding the city long
before they expected to fire on it. The
federal soldiers in Torreon, it was said,
were kept in ignorance of recent rebel
victories and to sustain their courage
they were told that Genera! Mercado
won a signal victory at OJinaga.
General Marcello Caraveo, one Of the
federal generals who escaped from
OJinaga. had arrived in Torreon and
received a triumphant reception be
cause he informed the soldiers the
rebels had been defeated at OJinaga,
according to the courier.
Villa Is Confident.
"I don't think there is any doubt that
we will capture Torreon," General Villa
said today, "but I think it will be one
of the severest battles of the revolu
tion. The Huertalstas are desperate.
They are evidently concentrating every
available man at Torreon. I am not
making any predictions as to when the
battle will begin or er. I."
Mexican federal sympathizers pro
tested to the United States Army of
ficials In El Paso that Raoul Madero,
brother of the late president and an
officer on Villa's staff, was permitted
to go to the American side. Madero
has been seen daily in the hotels and at
social affairs on tbe American side.
The Mexicans complained this was a
violation of the neutrality laws and
was not the same treatment as was ac
corded General Mercado and other fed
eral officers who are held prisoners at
Fort Bliss because they crossed the
river. It was said a protest would be
made to Washington.
General Carranza, according to a re
port, soon will start from Culiacan. Sin-
aloa, for Juarez and Chihuarfua, coming
by automobile from Naco to Casas
Grandes or Guzman on the Mexican
Northwestern, and thence by train.
FEDERALS' MAR SEAL TROOPS
Soldiers Being Rushed to Torreon. to
Aid in Defense.
MEXICO CITY, Feb. 2. , Federal
troops are being rushed from Saltlllo
and San Luis Potosl to Torreon to as
sist In its defense. General Jose Re
fugio Velasco's command there is said
to number 5000. General Blanquet, the
war minister, is authority for the state
ment that the federal force sent south
west has checked the advance of the
rebels from Durango.
The force under General Orozco,
which has been sent north, is expected
to hold back Villa's men.
The rebel movement in the State of
Oaxaca is becoming more active and the
Fifth regiment was dispatched from
here tonight to that section of the
country.
Jose Requena and "Pedro Villar, who
recently were arrested in connection
with an alleged plot against the gov
ernment, and later released, will leave
Mexico on Thursday.
YAQUI INDIANS ON RAIDS
Mexican Freighters Are Killed Near
Ures, Is Report.
DOUGLAS, Ariz, Feb. 2. After sev
eral weeks of quiet, Yaqul Indians
were again raiding ranches in the
vicinity of Ures, Sonora, according to
reports which reached here today.
Several Mexican freighters have been
killed a few miles from Ures, It was
said, and the Inhabitants of that re
gion are practically defenseless.
The Yaquis have extended the field
of their operations, declared travelers
from Ures, until they reached to the
southwestern edge of the Mocezuma
district, which had hitherto been free
from three raids. The hostile bands
of Indians were augmented by num
bers -of "tame Yaquis," who had de
serted from the constitutionalist army,
it was said.
JUGGLING IS NOW CHARGED
(Continued From First Page.)
13 and the American Ijas only seven.
This result Is brought about by in
cluding in the list of German dread
noughts four ships which are armed
with 11-inch guns, while all of the
dreadnoughts in the American ' Navy
are armed with 12 or 14-inch guns.
The result was further brought about
in the yearbook by taking out of the
dreadnought class the Michigan and the
South Carolina, each of which has a
tonnage of 16,000 tons, and each of
which Is armed with eight 12-inoh
guns. If the Michigan and the South
Carolina had been put -in the list
where they belong, and where they
were placed In the 1912 Navy yearbook
and previous to that time, and the four
German ships which have only 11-lnch
guns were taken out of the dread
nought type and put into ' the battle
ship class, where they belong, then
the dreadnoughts in both of the navies
would be the same in number nine. -Tonnasre
Is Compared.
"In regard to the tonnage of the
dreadnoughts of tbe two navies it was
developed that the lowest tonnage in
any German dreadnought was 22,345
tons and the largest 24,303, while in
the American Navy the lowest ton
nage is 16,000 and the highest is 27,000
tons.
Comparing: the dreadnoughts of the
German navy with those of the Amer
ican Navy in point of guns it was
developed that four of the German
dreadnoughts each has an armament of
12 12-inch guns and the other five
each, an armament of ten 12-inch guns.
In the American Navy it appeared that
two had an armament each of eight
12-inch guns, four of ten 12-lnoh guns,
two of 12 12-lnch guns and two of ten
14-inch guns, showing the great su
periority of the American dread
noughts In the caliber and power of
their guns.
"Comparing the two navies with
reference to dreadnoughts now build
ing It appeared that .the smallest
dreadnought now being built in the
German navy is 26,575 tons, and the
smallest building "in the American
Navy is 27,000 tons; that the largest
dreadnoughts building in the German
navy have a tonnage of 2-S.00O, and
the largest building in the American
NaVy have a tonnage of 31,400 or an
excess of 3400 tons over the largest
German snips now building.
Comparing the dreadnoughts now
building further, with reference to the
armament. It appeared that the four
smallest German dreadnoughts now
building have each ten 12-inch guns
and that the two largest building
caoh eight 15-lnch guns, while
all the' dreadnoughts now building in
tne American Navy have 14-inch guns,
three of them being supplied with ten
each and two of themwith 12 each
"It was further developed in com
paring the American Navy with the
Japanese navy that the American Navy
has- 39 battleships and the Japanese
navy only 19, including all those in
both navies that are built and building.

ne favored the doctrine recently given
out by Dr. Charles N. Eliot, of Harvard.
Dr. Aked was denounced in bitter
terms and all responsibility for his
utterances disclaimed.
In his sermon Sunday Dr. Aked cast
doubt on the accepted belief of some
faiths that the conception and birth
of Christ was a miracle.
Milton G. Evans, presid?nt of the
Crozer Theological Seminary, declined
to criticise Dr. Aked, after the action
of the meeting, stating that there was
enough work for all clergymen to do
without knocking one another. .
Rev. W. S. Cattlett, pastor of the Oak
Lane Church, was one of the most bit
ter in denouncing Dr. Aked, reiterating
that the Baptist church would have
to declare itself unalterably opposed
to any such doctrine as Dr. Aked had
given voice to.
