IOW WOMEN CAN BEST
SERVE THE STATE,
This wan the subject! tin address
made by a woman before the Federa
tion of Women' Clubs in October,
1907, She began by Muling, that
women without the ballot were in a
state of complete political independ
ence which added tremendous jvcight
to any public work they might choose
to do, She says 'well independence
cannot be over-estimated. "Only those
who have been so placed can begin
to realize what it means to be able to
plead for a cause or a reform in ad;
ministration and to know that such a
plea will be considered on it merit
alone, with no ulterior thought of
what might be the motive of the
pleader or what 'pull' may lie back
of the petition."
In closing she said, "In what a dif
ferent spirit I have put what I had to
say than would have been the cac
twentv-t'ive year ho. Then, I should
have thought it necessary to begin my reckon your quarrel ii with the Lord
paper with an elaborate defense of the and not with the law!'"
propriety of woman appearing in . ' --
public life at all. Now, I have taken Subscribe for the Morning Aitorian,
May Official Tide Tables
it a a matter of course that we all
agree that bridge, lectures, theatres,
or even prayer meetings, are more
fikcly to distract a woman from her
home pursuits than the arduous path
of public service. Yes, the position
of woman, has changed much in the
last quarter of a century, She has now
every legal right necessary for her
protection, and, crowning she has ac
quired them without being called
upon to lay down her independence I
I after think of a meeting I once at
tended in California, where some of
our strenuous sisters were demanding
what they choc to call 'rights.' At
tlic close I was aked to make a few
remarks, In reply, 1 gave a brief di
gest of the laws of California concern
ing women. There was a dead pause
after I had fmMicd speaking, which
was suddenly broken by a shrewd old
woman from Southern Missouri, who
drawled out with the true 'Bush
Wracker' intonation: 'Wal, gals! I

Prices of Commodities, Farm

PORTLAND, May 21,-IIeavy re
ceipts for several days have weakened
the veal market. Dealers said today
that only occasional sales of extra
fancy stock could be made at 71
cents a pound, 7 cents being generally
the top figure for good stock.
I'ork holds steadily at 8 cents for
the best offerings. The demand is
good and stocks work off satisfactor
ily. Poultry dealers report a slightly
weaker chicken market, but with no
chance from the quotations ot yester
day, Receipts for the past few years
have been fairly large.
There was next to nothing in the
fish market today so far as salmon
was concerned. Dealers reported prac
tically nothing on hand, one saying
that with the available supply it
would be impossible to fill a quarter
of the orders on hand. Other fish
generally were in fair supply and
prices were not changed.
The wholesale grocery trade re
ports a reduction of 40c a case by one
of the coast condensed milk interests,
as a result of recent price cutting by
an Eastern concern which doe busi
ness on the coast. It is believed that
all the Western operators in this line
will meet the new prices.
