W I I 1 ..- -a' WOMEN ARE INELIGIBLE. Attorney - General Chamberlain Thinks Law Allowing them "to Hold Office Invalid. The proceedings to contest the elec tion of Miss Nellie Stevens as school superintendent of Union county, insti tuted by J. L. Carter, who for many years occupied that Ksition, has cre ated a lively discussion m legal circles. Mr. Carter whs a candidate for re elec- tion on the republican ticket this year, and was defeated bv Miss Stevens, who ran on the populist ticket. Re cently Mr. Carter began an action against the superintendent eU-ct to restrain her from 'assuming the reins nt offi( mi the constitutional "round that a woman is not eligible tea county office. He intends to press the action in order to establish a precedent, and discover whether the law enacted by the legislature of 1893 to enable women to hold educational offices is of any effect. Tt was uuder the impression that this law which Mr. Chamberlain pronounces invalid was effective, that Miss Stevens accepted the nomination for the office to which she was elected. The law is as follows: "Section 1. Women over the age of 21 years, who are citizens of the United States and of this state, shall be eligible to all educational offices within this state. "Section 2. AH acts aud parts of acts in conflict with this act are hereby repealed. This law is considered invalid by Attorney General Chamberlain, because it is contrary to the constitution oi the tate. He lias not delivered any opin ion on the matter. When asked by an Oregonian reporter about the more important question of whether Miss Stevens wnuld be permitted to remain in office, he said: "Fioiii a cursory extmiuaiiou of the matter I would say that a woman is not eligible to any county office. Before a woman can be eligible to such a posi tion, the constitution of the s'ate must be amended. Und;r scction.2 of arti cle 2 of the constitution, fixing the qualifications of voters, it is provided that in all elections not otherwise pro vided for in the constitution, every male citizen of the United States of the age of 21 nd upwards, who shall j have resided in this state during the six months immediately prec diiig an election, shall t e entitled to vote at all elections authorized by law. Under this constitutional provision, I am inclined to the opinion that in ord.-r to entitle any others thau those" specially provided for to the privileges of elec tors, this provision of the constitution would have to be amended in the man ner prescrilied by law. "Section 8 of article G of the consti tution is as follows: 'No person shall be elected or appointed to a county office who shall not be an elector of the county, and all county, township, precinct and city offx-ers shall keep their respective offices at such place therein, and perform such dusies as may be required by law." Under the latter provision, one of the first condi tions requisite to eligibility to ti county office is that lh6 person seeking the office must bean elector of the county, while under the first section of the constitution, quoted above, the quali fications of electors are fixed. If it had been the intention of the Cramers of the constitutian that females should vote and be eligible to county and statu offices, it is probable that they would have been expressly authorized to vole and to hold office by some con stitutional provision. The mere fact that the legislature has undertaken to enable women to hold educational offices does not sweep away the con stitutional provision which requires that no person shall be elected or ap pointed to a county office who is not an elector of the county. There is only one way to amend the constitu tion, and until it has been complied with, any act inconsistent therewith must, it seems to me, be inoperative." It is not probable that Mr. Cham berlain will.be called upon for a for mal decision, as the state is not in volved in the case. Multnomah county had an experi ence similar to that of Union county eight years ago. At the county elec tion of 1886, Mrs. Alice C. Cove was elected county school superintendent, and served until September of that year, when the question of her eligi bility to the office was brougnt up. She tendered her resignation, and her husband, the late C. . H. Gove, was appointed by the county court to fill the vacancy. A few years ago a woman was elected county school superintendent in Uma tilla county and served her full term. There was som talk of contesting her election but no step "was taken in that direction. , ' In Marion county recently Miss Jennie Griffith ran for school superin-! tendent on the democratic ticket and polled a large vote, but was defeated. There was a larger number of female candidates for educational offices this year than tis'idl, and the overplus may be attributed to the belief that the law of 1833 was operative. The only at tempt lo amend the constitution so as to allow women to hold oliice was made in 1882. A bill proposing iliac the elective franchise should net be thereafter prohibited to any citizen on I account of sex was passed l.v both j houses of the legislature in October of i that year. It was submitted to the people for a vote at the general election in June, 18S4, and was defeated. No other legislature touched upon the j matter until 1803, when the law mea ; tioned was enacted. WASHINGTON LETTER. Wa hixgton, July 16, JSDi. The. alleged conference of commit-j e .11 i . . .t.'W tees from the house and senate on tle i tariff bill, which is actually only a con ftrence between eiht democrats and the various trusts which demand pro tection of thrir interests in payment for past and future conti ibut:ons to the democratic corruption fund, is still , oing on. an.l from what hs L-ake'd out, there lias been some very lie"y J word battles in the committee rn.mi in which the meetings are held. Little Mr. Wilson, who bv order of Mr. Cleveland was put at llm head of the house wa).s and means committee, got so worked up at, one of these meetings at the various demands made on be half of the trusts by the senators that he left the room in a huff and svor iie would have nothing more to do with it.

On the contrary, it wjis in tended that the conference should be all that the term implies full mid 1 free discussion of the points of differ ence between the house and sen ite, by all of the representatives of the hou.se und senate and mt by representa tives of only the political parties that happen to be in control of those bodies, and never until now has that intention been deliberately violated, although there have been hundreds of confer ences' iieul. ibenator Vooiliees ad mitted that a mistake was made by not inviting the republicans to be present at the first meeting held, but so far as known he has taken no step to correct that mistake. Strictly speaking those eight democrats have no legal right to tinker with that tariff bill in the forced absence of the six republican members of the conference committee, and their attempting to do so may make trouble for them and their liartv. This tariff business is a long way from being settled. Some of the democrats have sud denly discovered that Utah wi'l prob ably go republican and so greatly are they exercised over it that they . are actually trying to get Mr. Cleveland to veto the bill for the admission of that territory to the Union. Mr. Cleveland did not want the Utah bill passed at this session of congress, but from the best obtainable information it is not probable that he will veto the bill now that it has passed, us it would be diffi cult to find h good reason for so doing. "Just to show the country that it can do business rapidly when so minded, the senate has in one week passed no less than nine of the regular appropri ations bills and the programme for the present includes . the passing of the other five. With all the appropriation bills out of the way only the tariff bill will stand in the way of adjournment. Senator A4:n of Nebraaka, is the latest victim of personal explanation. He told the senate Saturday that it was not true as published a few days pre viously that he had made a monkey of of himself while in a glorious state of intoxication. The least said about the matter the better. " THE NEWS OF OREGON.
