WOMAN MAYOR OF UMATILLA IS PRETTY, CLEVER AND DIPLOMAT Laura Jane Starcher's Brevity of Speech Is as Defined as Her Ability to Govern BothHome and Municipality Cause of Working Women Espoused. !. . ' sf :. : , : , tP- ' :: ' ' , s . BY LEONE CASS BAER. G' EN1US always has been set to aft accompaniment of brevity in speech. Possibly this is one rea son we've come to speech in a woman. In fact, it's so seldom one finds either genius or brevity of anything, except ing skirts and sense of humor, about a woman that when it does occur the oc casion should be rushed Into print. Witness then an accounting of a brief chat with Mrs. Laura Jane Starcher. woman Mayor of Umatilla. She has genius, which you know has been defined as a big capacity for taking pains. She is also chary of her chatter. She says she is no politician, and then pro ceeds calmly to side-step every leading question oqe can think up to fire at her. Silence Mark of Genius. Somehow we rather expect men geniuses to be silent and cryptic and mysterious. Napoleon rarely spoke when he could avoid it. while Wellington-was similar ly silent. Lord Kitchener was posi tively Sphinx-like in his reserve. Lord Palmerston was proverbially silent, while William- Pitt throughout his meteoric career was given - to long periods of J silence. .-J Isaac Newton, world famous as p. scientist, spoke rarely, save to - answer a -question. Darwin wrote big books, fr'it spoke little. You'll always notice that writers are usually not the great talkers. Tolstoi, most amiable of men, was reserved lnv conversation and at times among the most mute of men. Balzac, the great French romancist, when engaged in thinking out a new work, would fre quently pass days and days talking to no one but himself. Beethoven as reticent, Mozart sparing In his speech, while it is said of Chopin that he loved silence better even than music. Wagner, save when discussing mat- Alfred FUckinger. DUNDEE, Or.. Feb. 17. (Spe cial.) Alfred FUckinger, who died suddenly at Suver, Or., Feb ruary 11, in the home which he built 31 years ago, was the son of Henry FUckinger, one of Polk County's pioneers, who located at Suver in the early "50s. In 1879 Mr. FUckinger was married to Eunice L. Brown, and they located on a farm near the old homestead, which the family has occupied continuously ever since. Mr. FUckinger leaves a widow and an only son, Lloyd FUckinger, and one grandson, Alfred FUck inger, besides three sisters Mrs. Elizabeth Dalton, of Burns, Or.; Mrs. Annie Brown, of Suver, Or., and Mrs. Caroline Buchanan, of Corvallis. J The funeral services were di rected by W. M. Bovee, of Cor vallis, and the sermon delivered , by Rev. S. M. Woods, Evangeli cal minister, Corvallis. A large concourse of relatives, friends and neighbors accom panied the body to the Locke Cemetery, near Corvallis, where interment was made a short dis tance from the place where the wedding ceremony was per formed, nearly 38 years ago. r. ............... ........... I OLD SCVER RESIDENT IS i LAID TO REST NEAR COnVALLH. t 1 - j tX ! I f gwmr,inii,rj - -f J I 1 v. J -4 vv t ters musical, was silent to even the point of rudeness. Among the most silent of the world's great men were Tennyson and Thomas Carlyle. Bringing cases down to today. Sir James Barrie has exalted saying noth ing Into a fine art. So, too, has Thomas Hardy. I reckon someone with a nose for statistics Is going to start a list to prove the contrary can be true, heading it with Roosevelt,- but the fact remains that genius oftenest goes hand in hand with reticence. Talking; for Print Scorned. Which Is another reason . for my knowing that. Laura Jafie Starcher is a genius. She simply will not talk for print. Charming and adorably femi nine is she, gowned and booted and hatted smartly and carrying . a huge muff of silver fox, with her saucy chin half burled in a gorgeous fu the brother to the muff Mrs. Starcher looks more as if rhe's Just been to a bridge-luncheon than pounding gavel on a table messed " over with municipal documents. "It can't be done," I whispered to myself, "or at least it Isn't according to Hoyle for any woman to be so good looking and attractive and- also have brains. No Pre-Electlon Promises Made. But Mrs. Starcher has all these, and is, besides, alert and nimble of wit, and as subtle as the w. k. Sphinx. She looks unutterable sentences with her keen, laughing gray eyes, but she's a born diplomat. I can readily believe her when she told me she made no pre-election prom ises, nor has she listened . to any behind-the-Talm whispering since she took the chair. About that chair. It must be dolly size, for the Umatilla Mayoress is only five feet (two, dainty and petite. She stopped In Portland a day or so, leav ing Umatilla and the Job of running the city -to the president of the Council, Mrs. Anna Means. Today she leaves for Southern California, after a visit in Sacramento with Mr. Starcher's peo ple." Husband Not Submerged, KIther. . Oh, yes, there's a Mr. Starcher. and he will never be known as one of the band of unknown husbands of well known wives, for he has an individual ity of his own. Mr. Starcher was Mayor of Umatilla for two years, until his own little wife decided to run against him last Fall. "I'd never have run if I hadn't been sure .I'd get elected," she said naively, "I never could bear to be beaten at anything." She was elected, and"with her four Councllwomen, one woman Recorder and a woman Treasurer. The work piled up. there was lots to do, and Mrs. Means didn't mind looking after the Job for awhile, so the woman Mayor packed her trunk and Is off to Califor nia for a vacation. Mrs. Starcher Intensely Domestic. L She believes firmly in the home and what it stands for but believes, too. that a woman can be even a better pol itician for being a good wife and mother. Mrs. Starcher espouses partic ularly the cause of working women, and reads omnivorously of publications along this line. She is intensely domes tic, and an outdoor spirit. She has a riding horse, and drives her own car, "but I love my horse best." she admit ted. The motto she has pasted In her hat is "Clean Politics." "When I can't keep the politics clean in my own lit tle bailiwick I'll resign," she said. Mrs. Starcher is tremendously in sym pathy with women in suffrage and in politics, but she does not approve of verbal fireworks or brass bandish methods. Advice Given to Plcketera. "I always have wanted to advise those women who did picketing duty at the White House to go on home and get warm. If they'd do that, and then stay away from the White House they'd help their cause more. They can't get the President Interested Just by hang ing around his front gate. Votes for women cannot come in a day, or a month, nor even a year. It takes time to convince certain thick-headed ones that suffrage and women rn politics is right and desirable, and to secure the enactment of laws giving the ballot to women. I think the amiable picket workers should do their work, cleverly and quietly, around the halls In which the Representatives meet. Men do not like cymbals and loud crashes of opin ion they'd rather have it fed to them quietly on bits of sugar." Didn't I tell you' the lady Mayor is a genius? Divorce Granted Mrs. Broadlicad. Grace Broadhead was granted a divorce from L. D. Broadhead by Circuit Judge Qantenbein yesterday, on grounds oi desertion. . DELAY IS MET III PROJECT Portland Subscription Will Not Be Opened Until Country .Has Met Its Obligation. EARLY START IS DESIRED Promoter Anxious to Have Financial Details Complied With, as He ' Points to Danger Always Apt to -Occur in Big Undertaking. -:. Delays ' at Klamath Falls, ' Bend. Lakevlew and other communities In discharging details .coincidental with the-construction of the Central Oregon Railway project have deferred for sev eral weeks the Inauguration of the campaign in Portland for aiding he capitalization of tne unaeriaaing. Robert E. 'Strahorn. at the head of the project, is now in California, and until his return to Portland the Port land-railway committee will not start woK. Committee meetings have been held, however, and details of the prog ress thus far made have Been cnecaea up. With .very forward step the com mittee is more sanguine of ultimate success and confident of the benefits that wlli accrue to Oregon as a Whole and Portland In particular from Khe construction of the railway. . Mr. Strahorn has advised his Port land office and the committee mem- bers that it would not be consistent to start the Portland campaign asking ror financial aia unu, munltles. which had already assumea i certain" responsibilities, had discharged them. That these responsibilities wm be met satisfactorily in a short time is almost certain, because of the pop ular interest in getting a railroad through Central Oregon, but until that assurance Is patent Mr. Strahorn pre fers to hold off the roruana cam paign. . - Programme to Be Carried Out. "It has been understood all along that the surveys, rights of way, ter minals and franchises and practically all other assistance asked for in the Central Oregon field would be ar ranged before Portland would be asked for its contribution. ' Mr. Strahorn ad vised the local office. Mr. Strahorn and tne otner memoers of the committee hope and believe these matters will be arranged in the early future, as the latest advice from the respective communities . referred to so indicate." There Is-no lack of apprecU ation of the work being done by a few public-spirited citizens in every com- munity affected. This is especially true of Klamath Falls, where great sacrl ces have been made and efforts devoted to Insuring the beginning of construc-tion-at that end this Spring. I The organization, surveys, estimates and many other details of Mr. Stra horn's work are complete, ready for construction, and a large amount of valuable property acquired. He Is still hopeful of the early financing of the project after Oregon interests do their full part, but as he expresses it, his handi are now tied until those who are to be the chief beneficiaries of the work put him in possession of the remain der of the property and other assets and rights upon which to build. He mentions another serious draw back constantly arising and which it seems impossible to eliminate. This is the repeated reports of, his alignment with some one of the Ave railways whose stub ends his proposed Oregon, California & Eastern Rpliroad Is to con nect. First it is the Union Pacific, then the Hill lines, then the Western Pacific, and so on. ".- reliance upon this sort of thing is fatal," says Mr. Strahorn. "We will na-er get anywhere with the project so long as such mistaken no tions are entertained by any consider able number who should have their coats off and be straining every nerve and resource to pull this enterprise through. "The whole matter is Just where it was in the start absolutely Indepen dent and it could not succeed if it were attempted in any other way. With all the thought and strenuous effort I have centered upon it for two years. I "fall to discover any other way to finance it than I announced in the beginning. That is, for those most in terested to furnish the rights of way, station grounds, terminals, franchises, etc., upon the surveys and plans 1 furnish and subscribe 25 per cent of the cash necessary to construct and equip the system, all of which, added to my outlays and work, to be used as a basis upon which to finance the other T5 per cent. We now have well organized and a businesslike start made on a splendid railway project, promising the greatest benefits to Ore gon and neighboring states of any since then completion of the trans-continental lies. It only awaits the all-together pull which I hope will come quickly because we can never tell what may happen to delay or' defeat a de velopment of such magnitude." DAILY CITY STATISTICS Births.
