Can the Oregon club mothers recall any over-abundance of moral tralntns any cnuaren ever got .In this state, or any Incidents that mte-ht lead them to believe that a little mors moral training would have been a stood thing! The circular takes up these different subjects In detail and' makes some very valuaoie suggestions. , . .....

' ' - No city can reach th highest state of beauty and symmetry without the dellcat and artistic touch of woman's hand, or ,t least th work being done tinder her idlrectlon. Then here's to the ladle wh ere to be of such valuable aaalstanc In beautifying th city." And yt this same paper, takes th syndlcat article written by a certain Portland minister and presumably ac cepts pay for It at advertising rates, (as it has been offered and rejected by other papers of th state) agatnlt giv ing these women th privilege f saying who shall control and keep these streets fit and decent places for them to walk pon after they hav spent their money and energy In cleaning them up. It is even th same masculln warning; "Thus far and no farther may you go. Tou may still act the scullery maids while w reap th shekels at your ex pense." To beautify a city, of course.

' ; ,- , ' ! . , appeals to the domestic side of her na ture and that aha looks straight at this view of It, is to her honor perhaps; but for the men of th town who accept this unselfish service, and then say to her, "you are not fit to be trusted with the ballot,'' snd insinuate as th reverend gentleman does : In his advertisement that to women the ballot means loss of virtu Is preposterous. Th cloak of righteousness covers many a thing be sides a heart pur and undcflled In the sight of God. Portland -has gotten used to this, and understands the why and th whereof it, but it Is rather surpris ing to find It tolerated In a community wher its Women do so much, and by papers that never cease to sing their prais. . AGAIN by a majority of votes th men of Oregon hav consented to ' keen their wives and mothers in th ranks of th criminal. Insane, Idi ots and foreign-born Chinese, and the' woman for two years longer must wait, to again ask their inalienable . rights rrom tneir loras ana roasters. two years la not lone as we' count the struggle that has been going on for well-nigh a century.- to emancipate women, and th advancement can only . b noted when w compare th women of-today with th women of a century ago. w hav been told by the pam pered women who, through their wealth, social position or popularity, with a limited' number of male friends with money, that honor comes to the Women who stay at horn who rock th cradle while men go out to shoot and vote; but we take notice that, for instance, a Daughter of th American Revolu tion must get her honorable member ship through a male ancestor who served In the revolutionary army. . Th daughter of a widow who had served and cooked for th army aver so faith fully would never be able to enter this organisation. But such honors are so empty and trivial they are but chaff to thinking Women, and the instance was only given to Illustrate the dif ference in honors between th voting ancestor's memory and the honors per petuated through the mother. But this Is not th time to enter into a discus sion of th suffrage question, nor is It a time to bring to light many things that If used before th campaign, might hav shown th few who worked against suffrage In a wholly, different coloring from that In which the com munity now sees them; but it Is th ttm to rally to th support of Mrs. Abigail Scott Duniway, and every woman with a spark of womanly blood In her makeup will not deny her the homage and credit that Is hers. Today, defeated but not beaten, she rises' ma jestically from the fray, determined, courageous and strong In th faith that era she leaves vacant th place she has held so long at th very head of the women of brains of ability in the stat yes, in th whole northwest her be loved Oregon, th state the mothers of these men . who defeated her did so much for, will redeem itself and cut loose, from the respectability (?) that has always delayed the wheels of prog ress. Mrs. Duniway has mad a brave fight for women for to years, and th hearts of the women are sadder for hr. perhaps,, than for their own defeat Bh. however, does not share this sor row, for ah knows that In a stat wher th people rule half th people will not long b ei eluded from the privilege that is theirs. Already the preliminary steps hava been taken., toward having new Initia tive petitions, printed, and as soon as they ar ready they will be put Into circulation for two years bene. . . y . y MRS JOHN C. WEETEaCth very fr f lcient general federation secre tary for Idaho, has th following to say of th club work of hjer state "Idaho, th youngest daughter of the general federation, has so far observed th traditional proprieties for th child and remained - inaudlbl. but as Mrs. Docket. haa commented., w are a vigor ous Infant, and hav developed so rap idly, - that having: already put away childish things w now feel entitled to a. hearing. , , .. : "Paradoxical as It may sound, we ar. in some respects hampered la growth by th sice of our state. Bom of us must travel as far to attend th next convention of the federation as the dis tance fom New York to Chicago, and on this account th state is divided Into three districts for federation purposes, which districts mast annually, while th state organisation holds only biennial conventions. Sine the last meeting in Boise In November, 1906, we have secured the passage of a good child labor law, mod eled upon that of California, and school superintendents tell us that it is al ready bearing fruit In a great decrease In truancy and a calling in of children from th beet sugar fields, where they were already being quit freely em ployed. At th Boise meeting, also, a loan scholarship In our state university was crested, starting with tlOO per year. This w 'nop soon to Increase, for there have been opportunities to loan many times that sum to deserving students. "The first district federation, at Its meeting In Blackfoot last fall, adopted a civil service law which they intend to present to the coming legislature and with 'the cooperation of th other dis tricts they hop to secure its passage. "Mrs. Dockery of the General Feder ation Civil Service Reform committee, haa offered a nrlie for th best essay on civil service reform, written by an Ida ho high school student. "SDlendld Dress .worK Mas . Been : don by Mrs. Byrd Trego of the state press committee, and her paper, th Blackfoot Republican, haa been adopted as the fed eration organ for the present adminis tration, rnis is rouna to stmpiuy com mute work to a great extent and to sav. much correspondence for th state officers. Our next biennial meetlnar will b held at Moscow In October this year." THE official program for th ninth biennial convention of the Oen- era! Federation of Woman's Clubs to b held In Boston, Jun il-JO, In clusive, so far . as it has been com pleted, has Just been sent out with the following report: : v , '!
