With His Pet Theory.
LINCOLN. Neb., May 20. (Special.)
"William J. Bryan, in pursuit of a long
cherished Intention, is to make a tour of
the world. Announcement to that effect
was made by him as he boarded a train to
participate in the picnic given by him to
50 employes of his paper, the Commoner.
The purpose of the trip is to study munici
pal ownership and railroad problems pre
sented in countries other than his own.
Another object of the trip will be to im
prove the health of his youngest daugh
ter, Grace.
Mrs. Bryan and her daughter will leave
in June, going to Germany and there
await Mr. Bryan, who will sail in Septem
ber. During their absence, Bryan's son.
William, Jr.. who is now a student at
Nebraska University, will enter Culver
Military Academy. Culver. Ind.
Mr. Bryan's first researches will be con
ducted at Glasgow Into the operation of
municipal ownership. His Itinerary has
not yet definitely been mapped out. but it
will take him to Australia and New Zea
land, and later to China and Japan, with
the likelihood that he may touch at the
Philippines. Mr. Bryan's time during the
Summer has already been taken up y
lecture dates, but he has arranged his
business sa that he can be permitted to
stay abroad a year, and it ie possible he
may be away from home all of that time.

RIGHTS OF COLORED FOLK
Charles A. Lucas Criticises the De
cision Against Oliver Taylor.
PORTLAND. Or., May 20. (To the Ed
itor.) The Oregonlan's editorial comment
Jn Its Issue of May 20, on the ruling of
Judge Frazer In the case of Oliver Taylor
vs. S. Morton Cohn, marks a radical de
parture of that paper from Its long-established
and well-known attitude on ques
tions affecting the rights of the citizen.
The Orcgonlan. as well as Judge Frazer.
t?ems to have confused and confounded
the entertainment of Invited guests priv
ately with that offered by public theaters
for the licensed playhouse Is certainly
a public place of amusement. Neither the
defendant nor the court attempted to
deny that fact In the trial of the case
above cited, the only contention being
that circumstances at times Justify dis
crimination. What are those circumstances? It is
a well-settled principle of law that pub
lic con veniences common-carriers cannot
discriminate against any class of per
sons except those who may be HI with
contagious or loathsome disease, nless
there be certain constitutional or statutory
provisions such as are found in many of
the Southern states.
Now. if the Supreme Court affirm the
decision of Judge Frazer. Oregon will
go on record as being out o harmony
with the progressive states of the Union
and In line and sympathy with the preju
dices of the Southern states. The question
of discrimination in public places, such
as hotels, theaters, restaurants, etc.. is
purely and simply a sentiment of South
ern origin and practice.
In the South no self-respecting colored
man would think of applying for equal
accommodation with- whites, because the
sentiment of the people respecting this
matter Is well known to -him; but in the
North no sensible white lady or gentleman
would feel offended because, perchance.
a respectable Chinaman. Japanese or
Negro lady or gentleman should occupy
a seat near to or adjacent in a theater.

I deny the sttcment that Judge Frazer's
ruling is In line with other decisions or
is sustained by the weight of authorities.
unless one confine his citations exclusive
ly to decisions rendered by Southern
courts.
Nearly every progressive state in the
Vnion has enacted a law covering just
such offenses as that complained of In
the case under consideration, which is
known as the "Civil Rights Act." It is
on the statute books of New York. Massa
chusetts. Pennsylvania, Ohio. Indiana. 11
llnols, Michigan. Kansas. Iowa. Minne
Bota, Washington and California. The,
constitutionality of this act has been
passed upon by the Supreme courts of
New York. Indiana. Ohio. Illinois, Mich
igan and Minnesota, and. has uniformly
been held good law.
A theater is a public place of amuse
ment and no respectable, fit and decent
person, be he black or white, who might
happen to be. by reason of religion, race
or color, persona non grata to the man

ment of his natural right yes, his legal
right: to occupy any seat or any nor
tion of such house to which the general
public is admitted.
it Is an undisputed fact that popular
opinion many times influences decisions
of the courts: but it is not a fact that
there Is now a popular clamor or that
there has ever been a demand for Hhe
exclusion of respectable colored people
from public places, such as theaters, etc
The greatest degree of harmony has al
ways existed .between the two races in
Oregon. There has never been any effort or
apparent desire on the part of the whites
to deny or abridgo the rights of the
colored man In any particular. "We have
always regarded our rights as secure In
this state, and our confidence in the
people of this commonwealth has been
of such a profound character as to war
rant our belief that such legislation as
that which lias been enacted by the
states above named was. in reality, un
necessary.
During recent years, however, there
has been a large Influx from that ."section
of the country where the colored man's
political rights, as well as his rights to
enjoy the benefits of public Institutions
generally, are absolutely denied In some
cases and severely restricted in others.
i iius it s uiui puouc opinion witn re
spect to such matters is changing some
what and it Is evident that influences
are at work which, eventually, will seri
ously disturb the amicable fellowship
wnicn nas existed in tnis community be
tween tne races.
Judge frazer s decision Is equally ap
nllcablc tr- white and colored nnnnio on
If Anally upheld, will have a far-reaching
effect, inasmuch as not only are the rights
of the negro concerned, but those also of
every person against whom the whim
caprice or personal prejudice of the pro
prletor of a public place of amusement
may prompt him to discriminate.
Viewed in this light, who will, sav that
such a decision Is either good sense or
good law?

BRYN MAWR MAKES APPEAL
Asks Alumnae to Contribute to an
Endowment Fund.
Twenty years ago Bryn Mawr Col
lege, now recognized as first in schol
any attainment and endeavor among
educational institutions for women.
was opened with an endowment of
about Jl.000.000. For 20 years the
trustees of Bryn Mawr have, tvith un
usual business ability, .managed the
finances of the college, but they are
now face to face with the fact that
their best management is unequal to
demands made upon them. To quote
the treasurer of the board, "the college
plant and business have outgrown Its
capital," and all those interested in
the college must recognize, however
regretfully, that unless Bryn Mawn Is
to lose in effective work and attain
ment its "capital must be increased.
A million dollars Is the smallest sum
that will adequately meet the need.
and the full amount ought to be raised
at once.
The alumnae of the college, scattered
as they arc throughout the country.
have undertaken the difficult task of
raising this sum. They have organ
ized into committees lu .ach state and
large city, and by an intelligent appeal
to those American citizens who are in
tercsted in and anxious to advance the
education of women, they hope to ac
complish their end. The Portland com
mlttee, through the medium of The
Oregonian, makes its appeal to all
Portlanders, and, indeed, to all Ore-
gonlans. Oregon, inadequately supplied
as yet with educational Institutions for
women, and beside truly American In
Its practice of sending Its Western
youth East to other than local sur
roundings for a term of schooling, has
as vital an interest In the upbuilding
of a good woman's college In the East
as have those states geographical!!
more closely allied with Bryn Mawr.
Moreover that is the highest patriot-
Ism and philanthropy which Is un
biased by any local choice or preju
dice and which therefore gives Its In
fluence and money toward advancing
the welfare not only of a single state
but of a Nation. The following state
ment of the conditions and needs of a
college which has already done so
much toward establishing a higher In
tellectual standard throughout the
United States should Interest all
thinking men and women.
Part of the original endowment fund
of $1,000,000, given in 1885, was In
vested by the trustees of Bryn Mawr
In halls of residence on which the
room-rent pays interest. During the
next two years about 100 students
were taught by a faculty of 25, to
whom adequate salaries were paid.
Last year there were 450 students and
a faculty of 50 to be supported from
the original endowment. The in
creased income from a larger number
of students does not keep pace with
their cost ito the college, and as all
endowed Institutions, the sum asked
for Instruction does not cover the ex
penditure therefor. An adequate en
dowment would make It possible to
limit the number of students to the
Ideal 500, and at the same time to raise
the standard of scholarship.
The college has also suffered from
the increase of 20 per cent in living
expenses in Philadelphia and Its vicin
ity during the last 20 years. Moreover, the
sum laid out In the repairs resulting
from the natural -wear and tear upon
the college buildings alone almost off
sets the gain that has come from more
systematic and economical manage
ment of the halls of residence. On
every hand the effectiveness of the
college is held in check by lack of
funds.
Vigorous efforts to avoid a deficit
have, of course, been made. The
tuition fee for undergraduates has
been raised from time to time until it
is now double what it was In 18S5, be
ing $200 per year instead of $100. This
is most unfortunate, since higher edu
cation for women grows more impera
tive from year to year,, and It Is the
class of women who are dependent
upon such an education for their live
lihood on whom expensive tuition bears
hardest and for whom, on the other
band, the very best teaching should be
provided. Twenty-five years ago
woman with an A. B. was regarded as
highly equipped, and, other things be
ing equal, could command a fair liv
ing ware asd was .sure of a. position.

Fashion, inclination and good taste 'all dictate that Summer Per
fumes shall be light and delicate, in contrast with the heavier fra

Two new Slimmer odors, that 'bid fair to be favorites this season
are "Wild Mowers of Mount Hood" and "Marcelle's Violet."
For June weddings the most suitable perfumes will be the ever

mentioned above.

daintiest whimsies of Fashion's votaries.
PRICES Cost is one of the least considerations when the ob
taining of a lasting, reliable odor is the object. Some of our daintiest
perfumes are so lasting tha a handkerchief sprayed with their deli
cate essence will pass through the laundry and still retain enough of
the delightful fragrance to be detected after its return. Ingredients
which admit of this degree of excellence are costly, but we have found that the finer qualities are preferred
by our fair .patrons, as indicated by the constantly increasing demand for the better lines of perfumes.
