WOMEN ARE ENTHUSIASTIC Appointee Also Will Seek National Prohibition, Says Wltnycombe. Oregon Alliance Is Asked to Campaign in South. "I realize that the women of Oregon are deeply Interested in the attitude that the new Senator from Oregon will take on the question of suffrage, which Is near to their hearts. I can say that the man I am to name to succeed to the Senatorshlp in Washington, D. C, one who will work with all energy both for woman suffrage and for Na tional prohibition." Governor Wlthycombe made this dec laration at the luncheon given In honor of Mrs. Carrie Chapman Catt at the Multnomah Hotel yesterday under the auspices of the Oregon Equal Suffrage Alliance, the Civic League and other organizations. His statement evoked almoBt as great enthusiasm from the women present as did the stirring address given after ward by Mrs. Catt- Power Wielded by Speaker. The power that Mrs. Catt exerted over her audience was Indicated while she was speaking by the fact that a woman fainted in the middle of the room while the speech was going on. and hardly for a moment did this In cident or the stir it created draw the attention of the greater portion of the audience from the speaker. Reviewing the progress of the wom an suffrage movement. Mrs. Catt pointed out that the United States is far behind many of the other countries in the world in Its recognition of women. - England, in particular, she pointed, to. We have not yet realized now thor oughly our mother country learned the lesson about 'taxation without repre sentation' that we taught her in the Revolution," she said. "It ought to be a humiliation to us that we have al lowed the mother country to beat us in our own business of fostering and encouraging democracy - in its fullest sense. The time has come, with the whole civilized world turning to the enfran chlsement of Its women, when it will WO fN ARE ASSURED MAP OF HALF-MILE RADIUS ABOUT THE ARMORY, FROM WHICH ALIEN ENEMIES ARE EXCLUDED, UNLESS HOLDING PERMITS, AFTER JUNE 1.

The campaign to win enough votes to make woman suffrage National must be waged In the Southern states, according to Mrs. Catt, and she pleaded with the Oregon Alliance to promise to send "missionaries" to speak through the South in the campaign. Other Western states already have made similar agreements and have taken over the states of the South in which they Intend to campaign. Mrs. Catt is urging the Oregon Alliance to pledge itself and to send Its best cam paigners to Southern territory that is yet untaken. After the close of the address the speaker was applauded vigorously, but no resolutions or other actions were taken at the time to assure her that her plea would be granted. Several short talks were made from the floor ' and Mrs. Catt was given several beautiful bouquets as tokens of the admiration of various organizations represented in the audience. Bishop "Sumner Speaks. Bishop Sumner, speaking in behalf of the" Red Cross, announced that the campaign for funds on June 25 will call for large, donations and urged all workers to avoid other activities in behalf of the Red Cross, which might induce possible donors to turn in small amounts and imagine that they had done their duty sufficiently to excuse them, from donating largely on Red Cross day. The statement of Governor Withy combe in regard to his Senatorial ap pointment came as a response to a standing demonstration by the women present of their desire that the Senator appointed should be one who would as suredly favor National woman suf frage. Dr. Esther Pohl-IxveJoy, president of the Oregon Alliance, was the chairman of the day. Between 600 and 600 persons attended the luncheon. Eugene High School Has Debate. EUGENE. Or.. May 26.

THREE CHOICES PERMITTED If No Candidate Has Majority of First Choice Votes, Second Are Added, Then Third and When All Are in High Man Wins. For the benefit of voters not familiar with the preferential voting system to be used at the city election, June 4 The Oregonian herewith presents an explanation of the system, showing how to vote first, second and third choices for Mayor and Commissioner and how not to vote, and also how election returns are tabulated under the system. The elector In voting for Mayor may vote three choices. A "first choice" is voted by placing an X in the column opposite the favored candidate s name, headed "First Choice." He may vote a second choice for another candidate in the column headed Second Choice, and a third choice for still another can didate In the column headed "inira Choice." Each choice must be for a different candidate. If more than one choice is given any one candidate only the highest' choice is counted. The rest Is discarded.

Incorrect way of voting three choices for Mayor: Mayor, One to Be Elected. First Cholee Second Choice Third Cholee Names of Candidates Jones. Smith. Williams. Fred. John. In voting for commissioner the voter may give two different candidates each a first-choice vote, two other candi dates each a second-choice vote, and two other candidates each a third choice vote. Two first choices, two second choices and two third choices may be voted, for Commissioners be cause there are two to be elected. while for Mayor there Is but one to be elected. .

If no one candidates receives a majority of all the first-choice votes cast, second choice votes then are added to first choice, and if no candidate has a ma jority when first and second-choice votes are added together, third-choice votes are added, and the candidate with the highest total vote wins. The same is true In counting re turns for Commissioner except that there are two candidates to be elected, and, therefore, a candidate to win on first-choice votes need only get a ma jorlty of one-half the total first-choice flHlllilit 1 1 H The Sonora Grand, $250 Mahogany or Oak always be Quickly located when wanted.
