Feb i J 1900 by Abigail Scott Duniway The Paradtt-e of ihi Pacific Northwest, fioiu whose bummer Sat.da and eun-down was I have I riveted four thousand miles to greet this brilliant gathering. un til within the past few rears, so remote in time, as noil as in distance, fioia the older settled portiou of tbis North American continent, that nobody living outside cf our great bailiwick, except feusao B. Anthony, b id discjrereJ the wouiau'd side of our progressive history, with which she became acquainted .by contact in 1S71. Bat even M.ss Anthony found on reaching oar shores, nearly SO years agi, that the awakeut-d woman of the latter half of the 19th century, bad, shortly prior to her advent, discovered herself. When the historic expedition of dis covery, beaded by Lewis and Ciatk, be gan its f am 3us journey of explcratijn in ISM., it eUrted westward from a point eut, of the Mississippi river aud extend ed its transcontinental travels through 'Jha almost unknown country now known " as the Middle West, and came, at last, to Oregon, leaving its families at home. The result) of that important purney wid remain through all time to mark the tracks it left opju this iMtion'a top gtaphicat ai.d commercial r.isl-:rv. Hat of the ultimate, results oftbtir researches the men a ho mioa.'.-d it had no drea m ; e'iil Its s di I they imagine that ere this dawn of aiio.hor century the co-txttt-ence and necessity ci-association of wives and mother in alt the great and mall affair of hie w.uld tcho back, cross the Kocsy mountains; and from under the shadows of ocr own sea bathed Sierras, the f.u-t that the meet important discovery of the century had been made when the woman of the great "West d scjvvred herself. If Lewis and Clark and their ni less iiftrepid com panion were with u? in the fleth today, they would t-e vast araiies of men, as valorous and adventurous as themselves, etiil engaged ia -naking new disoreri-'S in the physical geography of the Utiitrd Statee. And they would see tbeas modern argontDts, reaching out, guided by a destiny they could not foresee cr fathom, to raU the standard of individ ual and collective' liberts in the sem Btudded waters of the Pacific ocean and the Asiatic seas. Then, in turning the searchlight f their expanded vision northward, they would see yet other companies cf men, reaching out into the hyperborean altitudes of gemote Alaska, . accompanied, as Lewis and Clark's ex--,peditioa ought to have been, by mothers, wives and daughters, w ho &re proving themselves as strong in endurance and as intrepid in danger as their fathers, husbands and cone. And they would see, no matter whether tney turned tha searchlight toward the East, whare the modern adventurer pitches his tent upon the granite heights cf Sumpter, or toward the south to the tree-clad hills of Ore goo's Bohemian district; no matter whether they bivouacked among the frorjn crags of Chi. coot pass, or on the humid borders of Cape Nome no matter if they camped under the mountain' edges of moJrn Skagway, or rested at Metlakahtla, the virtue of the forest maiden would not te disturbed as of yore, nor would the dasky wife of the aboriginal man be tempted to populate thj new world with half-caste children trsecome the Ishmaelites of new gener ations, like the son of one argonaut I haye in mind, who, when asked, after being convicted of murder, to state why sentence of death should not be pro nounced upon him, turned savagely npon his pious father and cursed him round ly for having married an Indian wo ' wan. When I was atked to include in my . remarks tonight a brief regital of the progres made duriog the century by the mothers of the race in the far-off corner of our continent from wtiich I come, these facts crowded themselves upon me for expression, hence the introduction. Nowhere else upoa this planet are the inalienable rights of women as asacb ep- appreciated as on the newly settled borders of these United State;. Men have had opportunities in oar remote countries to see the worth of the civilized woman who came with them or amougthtm to new settlements after the Iniian wo man's day. And they have seen her, not as tha parasitic woman who inherit? wealih, or the equally telash woman who lives in idleness upnn her huioaad's toil, but as their helpmate, -cjmpani .n , counsellor aod feilow-homemaker, rej itciog with them in the homes they have earned to gether. and in lbs sons aud daughters they have reared in the hope that each would follow in the other's sex the g ioi old plodding paths of industry and peace. But, in spite of theories or regrets, the world is moving and womau is moviog with it not always, maybe, in the beet chosen paths, for we bra no wiser than our brothers bat always moving in ward in some direction toward a Light r goal. There came a time in Oregon, in the days when Washington, Montana ani Idaho were as yet a part of Oregon's territory, when men said to the intrepid women who were helping them to eub dae the wilderness, "You shall he en ' dowed with property rights of your own, " other than those dependent upon the ' 1 meager pxsibilUiee of gift, devise and r. nd inheritance." And they bestowed V wpoaofen under an act of congress, : origin in ated by tbeineelvcs, great tracts of virgin acres, making free-holders of " our women pioneers. Daring the limited period of the early "Glties," while this act, known as the donation laud la, was iu fori;e, large numbers of married women joined their husbands io Oregon, and availing them selves of their opportunity, became orig inal owners of the soil; and it is safe to say, that, such; is woman's innate love of home, not to sp:ak if her ofrentime in ordinate decile 'o poses a hojae of her own, tint if the law had not been re ira'ed utti thi lay, there need not be a re-ide j; tntu iu all the states of the PaoiSe Northwest, of which Oregon was the mother, whi would not today ba in pit.t possesion, with his faithful family, of aa nbt lo haviug i s foundation in the soil, from which no speculator co-itd dis lodge him. vVomtn always was and always will hj tin bs: and truest riend of man. And I sy njsia, as I have ofteu ai I before, "God bless the men! We cooldn't do without them if we would ; we wouldn't if we could." And yet, it is we:! known that the very best men ara not always tlie most prosperous. I have here a copy of the transactions of the Ninth Annual Reunion of the Oregon Pioneer Association, in which I find the following ttslimonial from the pen of IIjd. Jess Applegate, to the memory of bis faithfai wife, who died in 1SS1. Mr. Applegate says: "She was a safe counsellor, for her untaught in stincts were truer and safer rules of con duct than my bette.- informed judgment. Had I oftener followed her advice her piLj.iiui.iga on earth might have been, happier; at least, tier strong desire to make all happy around her would not have heeu cramped by extreme penury." Ah, many and many have been the woaeu of my bailiwick, who, like Mrs. Applegfe, hive "gone tD their graves in deep penury," whoe "untaught in BtiactV if they had been possessed of eqaa! rights before.the law, would have accompanied their "strong desire to make their husbands and all around them happy and pioscerous." a desire i that conld have bfeu gratified to their heart's torment if their lives "had not bten cramped hy exremj penury." j In an ad Jressjmads hy myself before j the Pioneer Society at its tenth, unniv, r-1 sary, I eaid : "It was a tardy recon.tion I o.' a nohle wemau's worth that brought' forth the daep wail of regret that I have - i . . i qaoiea. ljh no tongue or pen ian de- pict the hipeless argaish of the liereav- eJ husband who frauklv confeeeed in his hour of detolatiuii, that "her life j might have been longer and happier' if I he La 1 of cner fallowed her advice.' " j clubs of men, ibey dJutU: There never lived a kindlier man than i somewhat the t-r.eion l ui -Jesse Applegate, whose great bereave-i which mny of them are c;.c meut opened his blinded understanding and made him.eyrr after, to the day cf his death, an uncompromising equal suffragist, whose maoy relatives are now following his example; and if, with his great soal auJ manly goodness of heart, he was so ucjast to the best and dearest friend God eter gives to mn, what shall we say ot the lives of many alas, bow ' many other women with husbands less noble than he, w hose toil has brought them no recompense, very little appre ciation and far less of liberty? .Io tormer times every woman no mat ter how lowly, possessed some sort of a home in which she was always toiiing. She was the world's first crude manu facturer, the world's first homemaker; and ehe still desires always, above every thing else to be her own homekeeper. Bat the world is changicg front. Iler spindle and her loom are gone. Steel and s'.eam have despoiled her of the primitive means of livelihood, which kept her comfortable, busy and content. Still she must earn cr help to earn a livelihood. Very few meu poeeess the Midas touch that tares the things they handle into gold. The woman who "keeps boarders for company, is a close second to the wife who "makes dresses for iiversion," cr teaches school for recreation," or goes out washing "'for amusement." These words are not spoken in disparagement of the many men wno are financial fail ores, nor would I reflect in any way up on the far lesser number who possess the Midas touch. I am 1 simply stating facts germane to the question at issue, through the observance of which our border statesmen have grown both just and wise. Our pioneer women bad not long been property holders before they became tax payers. Then gradually, the truth dawueJ upon them, as they toiled to pay the tax gatherer, that "taxation w ithout representation is tyranny," and "govern ments derive their just powers from the consent of the governed." By and by the son of the pioneer grjw up and left the farm, with its old-fashioned, meager equipments, which satisfied the good .old father, w ho, while he lived, bad tried in vain to curb the aspirations of the boy. And the son tecame an inventor, an actor, a speculator, a printer, a publish er, a lawyer, a miner, a preacher, a teacher, a doctor, a prizjfigliter, aeoldier, a banker, a broker, an editor, a politi cian, a merchant an anything but a plodding, half-way tiller of the soil his parents loved. Then, the daughter. Gndicir the voum: ...... , J .. man had left tne farm, came also to the city, and began to crowd her brother in the race for livelihood. The young man co-operated with hie fellows and built a clutihouse and still the maiden 'was alone. But be would work cheaper than he, chiefly because ehe conld not run Lie's race with him except iu ruinous competition. So the lived in a 7 by J room with an oil stove and a folding bed; aud more and more she crowded him to the wall. And it was a life cf independ ence compared to that which -she had left. Her meager a;e sufficed for food and clothes and shelter. l'.e had die- covered herself, at.d for al'.meshe was satisfied. She was nut compelled to marry from inercennry motives, and would not wed a coronet unless love crowned the contract and cl-anlinees cf character, (qual to her own, accompa nied the nuptial bond. And so it has gone on and on, until an other stage in her development has come. Ana, like, tho bird, which, tethered at tho end of a shoit line, rejoices in its en larged circuit wheu the line a length ened, until at lattt nothing will satisfy it but freedom altogether, the young wom an has tried her partial emancipation from old-time environments; and now she iu no longer satisfied. She Bits alone at night in her -little chamber acd wat.hesthe career of h.-r brothe-, up.u whom ihaie sr.- fastened! no political fetter?, nd sees him reicii i the United staffs tcimte or b.xome t'.o p'es'dent of n bunk r tho I cad of ft ! great department store. !!: a'c'i ' a j sister, who became the parasitic wife j him of the Midas touch, und U h !1h her sheltered in a gilded mansloti . im iii: which and herself there is a great gulf fixed. Or the read ifh-ra presid.inj languidly in l.er palace n! a tr.i-. iirir called to oppose the political li'!ti;-s of such toiling women as herxelf. Sue i :in not have a gill.-1 or even a lai:u': lo; home, for herself, because tlx re is no : man left to marry her, aod Ii t watsj hardly support her daily existence. So she eays, "Wint means tint fav ored woman's wealth to ms? This box wherein I sleep is njl a home! I toil at half wages, aud I am optracizsd from the saciety ia which my favored sister uu I brother shine. I have uo hope i'i poster ity, for I cannot marry. But I must l.e, and I am not conteut !'' So she is call ing to her brother hachel jT in the I'ui'ed States etiis e, or her married bro' her in the hall of lepresen'a'ives, aud to oil meu in the Da.lot booths of Oregon, say- j ing, "Ale.i and brethren!

For the same reason I resist the strong temptation to came in this connection the many associations and fraternities c! men who have signified by their votes, in theii different orders, their determin ation to give us their affirmative viee at the ballot-box next June. Mat I do take pride in mentioning with no fear of dis aster, the Lmergeocy Corps and Ue I CroES Society of our state, organizod during the mobilization of oar volun teers and maintained inactive working order as long as there was work for them to do. It would, indeed, humiliate our returned veterans were they to ei-e these noble women defeated, at the June elect ion; these, women, who, though fettered at th e end if the governmental lariat, have royally earned their 'il'crtie hy toil ing to feed and comfort the soldiers, to whom women had giveu life, exhibit ing such larg.-i ess of liberty and Mich statesmanship in Edn.iniptratii.n of tt.e corj b' affairs as has challenged the ad miration, ii'.t only of our own returning volunteers fr j;n Asihtic ee!, but 'h'we from Idaho, Montana, Nebra.-ku, Dako ta and Washington, all of whom wore cheered and toasted and s-tu on their I way re Jiciog a mm t njuJgiCf 0D8 and bcf amid the ulad u.-( h.ini id And the home- Ieeswile suit sweet girl giadttate are hearing all this and taking coning". They do not want to iulc over man. It would be useless for any woman but an anti-suffragit to attempt it rind none o'her tries. But their cry is for on equal chance with man in the great arena of work. Not many of them could l e ollice holders, and very few in any ttale where women vote, aspire to oflice. Ti e men of Oregon are tired of seeing their wives and daughters rated in the p olitical rate gory of idiots, insane peisons, criminals a nd Chinamen. A delightful calm ban settled over our political srena, but it is the calmness that preced?s tho success that is in sight. 1 wish that 1 had lime to teli you of the mighty possibilities of fair young Oregon.
