'ky petition.
City Employment to Be Settled.
;; The only measure submitted by the
;; Council so far has been one regarding
;:the re-employment of city employes.
;rThe charter now provides that in case
!'f a retrenchment of forces the first
."man laid off shall be the first to be
taken back. The Council wishes this
rule reversed, because, it is said, new
men In the service often take the places
.of older men. It is provided in the
; 'measure that reemployment shall be
' n the basis of seniority in service.
A measure which probably will be
-submitted by petition under the initia-
. tivs will be that regarding boycott
' banners. Persons interested have pre-
pared measure which they will sub-
- mit to the Council for consideration.
If the Council is unwilling to pass the
fsieasure a request will be made that it
;'be submitted to the voters. In case
' this is refused It will be referred to
the voters by petition.

How Suffrage Amendment
Was Written Is Recalled.
Mm. Abigail Scott Dunlway TelU
How Sunio B. Anthony Drew It
I p at Moment's IVotice.
BY ABIGAIL SCOTT DUNIWAT.
The Susan B. Anthony Amendment (now
known as the Brintow-ifondell Amendment)
The right of citizens of the United States
to vote shall not be denied or abridged by
the United States or by any state on account
of sex.
SUSAX B. ANTHONY first camo to
Oregon, as my guest, in 1871, hav
ing come at my personal solicitation, by
courtesy of the first steamship com
pany operating between San Francisco
and Portland. I was her assistant and
manager through a lecture tour of
more than two months in Oregon.
Washington and British Columbia and
secured for her and the National Wom
an Suffrage Association the first $1000
ever contributed by her to the Na
tional treasury. ,
While we were visiting in Victoria,
B. KJ., and after many conversations
had passed between us oer best meth
ods for furthering the National work,
the subject of a National suffrage
amendment came up, and Miss Anthony,
who had been writing up the incidents
of our travels, paused, seized a scrap of
loose paper and penciled the original
draft of what I love to remember as
the Anthony amendment, which was
first considered in the Senate four
years thereafter, but was put to sleep
as a National movement till after ten
enfranchised states had been enlisted
as such under the management of the
National Congressional Union, with
headquarters in Washington, D. C,
with Miss Alice Paul as the National
chairman and a National organizer in
each of the enfranchised states.
Miss Virginia Arnold is the organizer
for Oregon. The National Council of.
Women Voters is also behind the Con
gressional Union, with Emma Smith
PeVoe. of Tacoma. as pre::-lent and
Cora Smith King, of Seattle, stationed
at Washington, L. C, as treasurer.
FREIGHT AGENT PROMOTED
K. E. Piper, of Western Transit Com
pany, Wins Post at Butte.
R. E. Piper, traveling freight agent
for the Western Transit Company, a
New York Central fast freight line,
with headquarters at Portland. has
been promoted to the position of agent
for the same company with offices at
Butte. Mont., effective March 1. Mr.
Piper has been with the Western Tran
sit Company here for the past three
years and has been with the New York
Central lines in various capacities for
the past eight years.
J. B. Dyer, agent for the Western
Transit Company. Seattle, has been
promoted to Kansas City, Mo., and
P. Beckrich. formerly traveling freight
agent at Spokane, will succeed Mr.
Dyer at Seattle and will have charge
of the Portland territory for the com
pany. Russian cotton mills in 1013 consumed
1.700.000 bales of cotton, half of which was
growo in Russia.
Stationers did a landotfice business
yesterday in the paper lace and tinsel
missives, so much in demand by love
lorn swains and others for the proper
observance of St Valentine's day. To
day Is the time-honored date for the
exohange of valentines, more or les
charged with love messages.
The shops have supplied an infinite
variety of hearts and cupids this sea
son, valentines being more elaborate
than ever, although they cling to the
age-old theme. They are, as usual, grave
and gay, although the standard of the
valentine, save perhaps as to the poetry,
appears to be somewhat higher this
season. The old comic valentine Is a
thing of the past.
This year's valentines would seem
to suif the degree of warmth of any
one's admiration for the object of his
atfections. for the legends range from
expressions of. respect to the most
tropic declarations of love. The old
rhyme that did duty for so long, being
to the effect that the rose is red. the
violet blue and . on that account the
recipient is as sweet as sugar. Is not
in this year's vintage, but the same
thing is there in meaning and efrect in
a hundred varied forms and phrases.
The customs of the day appear to
be a direct survival of the habits of
the gallants of ancient Rome. The
classic Lupercalia, feats in honor of
Pan and Juno, were held at this season,
and because of the notion that the
birds begin to mate on February 14,
it was the custom of Roman youths to
make the choice of sweethearts by
drawing the names of girls from a box.
The present of a scarf or other article
of female finery was the nsual intima
tion to the fair one of the issue of
the drawing. The pagan observance
was engrafted upon the Christian fes
tival.' The poetic epistles, which are now
believed to be dying out, came into
being during the age of chivalry.
Pepys. the Indefatigable diaryist, tells
of valentine customs and gives what
was probably the origin of the lace
paper valentine in his gossipy Journals
in 1667. '

LARGE AUDIENCE HEARS DR. WISE
IN" TEMPLE BETH ISRAEL.
Great American Likened fo Old Testa
ment Story Which Knits Soul of
Mankind to bis Maker.
In an address to a large audience in
Temple Beth Israel, Dr. Jonah B. Wise,
rabbi of the synagogue, Friday night
paid tribute to the life and character
of Abraham Lincoln, commemorating
the anniversary of the birthday of the
great American.
Dr. Wise said in part:
'Standing not alone for his own ac
complishments as patriot and states
man, Lincoln bequeaths to each gene
ration of Americans a rich heritage of
spiritual power. No mere intellect,
however strong, no man's conscious
virtue, however pure, can create a
character that strikes from out the
mass of human material a lasting type.
There is in the character of the mar.
that which defies comparison and
mocks analysis.
"To me his towering strength, his
uncouth power, his candid crudities,
sheltering gentleness, polished intellect
and subtle insight are on a par with
the bonds that bind men to God. The Old
Testament, that striking and illuminat
ing product of Israel, the delicate yet
coarse, the cruel but infinitely tender,
the coldly just yet passionately kind,
that book which knit the soul of man
kind to his maker conveys an impres
sion like to the living Lincoln.
"Born in the youth and vigor of a
mighty people he expressed in body,
word and action all the qualities of
strength, rough humor and fine idealism
of his race, even as the Scripture pic
tures the vigorous youth ' of Israel,
portrays its strength, its weakness and
its human loyalty. As Scripture was
Interpreted wrongly, its weaknesses
derided and its ideals distorted, so, too,
the smaller sphere of action of such a
kindred type was filled with all the
vicissitudes of Jealousy, ignorance and
passion."
