LEllffililE,
THEY'LL HE I
ERROR. SAYS
Fair Sex Will Not Repeat Mis
takes of - Men, Says Mrs.
Potter, Leader; Dr. Cordelia
Du Bey Sounds Warning.
Handsome Floats Interspersed in Parade
Another Fepture of 'Interesting 'Spectacle
Thera are In" Portland two women
able to state and define the problems
of today In the simple language of to
day. They are leaders In the national
moyement of "education for real democ
racy. , The Influence of the new, vigor
ous west In the present social and.
economic evolution Is their present
study. They are Dr. Cordelia DuBey
and Mrs. Frances Squire Potter, Both
are from Chicago.
, But they are not reformers.
"Beware of reformers," counseled Dr.
DuBey, characteristically.
"Beware of those who deal In good
ness. Much rather do I put my trust
la the boodler. The Chicago traction
fight, the Chicago school board fight
made me say of the one, "Blessed
boodlers'; of the other, Holy of holies.'
, "I have reference not to the people
"Twho do good, but to those who make
an appearance of doing good, yet are
able to deceive and double cross and
falter and fear."
Z,.t Women Vote.
Of the two Mrs. Potter Is the more
enthuslasMo fOr equal suffrage. Dr.
DuBey says that for women to vote Is
such an obviously normal and logical
thing that she can't discover arguments
against it worth the answering. But
Mrs. Potter said:
"Ours Is but' half a democracy when
balf the population leaving high school
Is politically decapitated. We appear to
educate our children In the principles
of democracy but we cannot do so as
long as the governing Influence Is
exerted by men only. It is little enough
to say that women govern the home and
this is their part. .They should give
that sense of proportion and Instinctive
appreciation of fundamental things to
all that influences the life of home,
State or nation.
"Let women vote and you will not see
thu... uo...b o n.en uo, going in droves
to do wrone or make mistakes. Women
are essentially individualistic They will
not make a mistake because another
woman does. They are apt to be in
error about small and frivolous matters
but pot in the great and determining
issues. Women, given the opportunity,
will serve as the balance wheel of our
political situation."
Beat Insurance.
Mrs. Potter, who has been sttendlng
the National Federation of Women's
Clubs convention In California, and wrio
made ono of the most brilliant addresses
of the session in Golden Gate park, be
lieves that with the planning of the edu
cational program, the adjusting of prop
erty rights and taxation, the forward
ing of the world peace movement, the
changing of x-'Oiulltlons for the produc
tion of individuals whose only liberty
Is to go wrong, are all dependent for
their best and most rounded develop
ment on equal suffrage and the lnflu- j
ence of equal suffrage on the psychol
ogy of the nation. j
"Sixty-six and two thirds of your in
come; goes to pay the expenses of army
and navy, Io you think that would
continue if women had votes. Admiral
Reynolds is quoted as saying that war
vessels are the nation's best insurance.
Best insurance against whatT War and
Invasion? Where are war and Invasion
to come from? The great nations are
mor afraid of going to war than of
keeping out of It. The effect on busi
ness and business relations between na
tions would not permit it."
Danger From Canal.
"And speaking of proper conditions
of living," said Dr. DuBey, who had been
listening attentively to Mrs. Potter.
"The Panama canal will do this west
ern country a great deal of harm un
less you plan wisely against It. The
east will send its Industries here. With
the industries will come the eastern
indifference to comfort and character
in those who toil. The east will send
Its system of overwork and underpay,
will send the Influence that starves
minds, and stultifies ambitions and loses
the measure of real values, unless you
are rareful.
"The great west would not permit
eurh a thing now. But in your eager
ness for new Industry, your anxiety for
Increased population, your 'boost' spirit,
you could easily find yourself led into
dangerous conditions."
No other woman or man in the
emmtry-, it- Is- said.- ta better qualified
to speakon the relation of practical
ebTucaTToh to " belter mis nTbT iTv 1 ng con
dltlons, than Dr. DuBey. She was a
member of the Chicago board of edu
cation for three years. She was a lead
ing factor In the organization of the
historic electric railway fight with its
partial victory of 60 per cent Income
from this service to the city, though
falling short of the objective, munici
pal ownership. She criticises Jane Ad
dams, of Hull House, saying that Miss
Addams' fear of the newspapers and her
placing of Hull House over a great
Democratic educational system for all
the. city detracted from an expected
complete victory.
Cost of Living.
She says that Oregon looks like heaven
to her after seeing California and ttie
east. She believes that the mineral ele
ments contained in vegetable products
here will preserve the health of the peo
ple as forced or hothouse productions
never can. She believes that the high
cost of living is largely to be solved
by having people of fair education and
good mind work In the soli instead of
being cooped up In department stores.
Mrs. Potter was for 10 years dean of
women in the University of Minnesota.
She Is a leader In the educational
thought of the nation. Both are the
guests of Mrs. Eggert at the Virginia
Hill hotel.
Portland Is also entertaining this
week Mrs. Helen B.. Boswell, who was
sent by Roosevelt and again by Taft
to aid In revolutionizing moral and san
itary conditions so that men working on
the canal would bring their wives there.
Miss Mary Wood, who is the chairman
of the legislative committee of the New
Tork Federation of Women's Clubs, and
organizer of the Titanic fund, Is the
guest of Mary Frances Isom, the libra
rian of Portland.

haven't' made' much of a noise,
said JL U Bhuman, of the Fort Worth
(Texas) Star-Telegram. In' speaking of
the Texas delegation, "for we haven't
been after anything. We do want to
make one loud nolso before we leave,
though, and that Is In appreciation of
Portland and the Portland Elks. W
want to take off our hata to the city
for the splendid time we, have had and
for the treatment wa have received.
"Not once have any of us been held
up for high prices as was the caae,
unfortunately, at several of the re
unions. We do not wish to disparage
other cities, but none of them have
been In the same class with Portland
in entertaining visitors. Everybody
was ready at the slightest -word to gtvo

everything for our comfort (

Blmply Charmed.
The Portland Elks say the whole
program and decorations have been an
experiment, but the experimental stage
was passed and the finished product
has been realized. The city Is beauti
ful. "This Is my first trip to the Pacific
coast, and I have found the entire sec

there was an opening for me here" T
would be sorely tempted to hurry back
from Texas, and especially If the open.
lng were In Portland. California is
very fine, but I am much more pleased
with the climate and business outlook
of this city.
"Oregon is not the only prosperous
state, however, for a wave of prosper
ity has struck Texas which is placing
business of that state In splendid shape.
Fort Worth Is the fastest growing city
in the state and now has at least 85,600
people. From 26,000 in 1900 it grew to
78,312 In 1910, according to the cen
sus, a gain of 175 per cent.
"Fort Worth has splendid shipping
facilities," having 17 trunk line rail
roads on which to ship products. The
greatest packing plant south of Kan
sas City, employing over 6000 persons,
is located there, and there are 15 large
grain elevators.
Latch String- Out.
"The latch string Is always out in
our country and Portland visitors will
be welcome when they arrive."
Mr. Shuman leaves tomorrow for Se
attle to visit the Potlatch, and the re
mainder of the Texas delegation will
leave as they desire. Many of them
plan to go through British Columbia.
The delegation numbers over 60 prom
inent Elks from all parts of the state.

"Every regular policeman, plain
clothes officer and special that can be
pressed into service will be on the
streets tonight," saldMayorllu8hlight
this afternoon, "to prevent a repetition
of disgraceful scenes enacted by ,a
rowdy element that took possession of
the main thoroughfares during the
small hours this morning. That element
was not composed of Elks or their
friends. They were only the riff raff
that always follows In the wake of any
great fiesta. We did not have enough
officers on the streets last night 10
maintain discipline. But tonight It will
be different.
"I have Issued orders to Chief of
Police Slover to take drastic measures
If necessary to see that order Is pre
served. There will be no interference
with fun makers who are decent, but
any attempt to duplicate last night's
vulgar imitations of the 'Texas Tommy'
dance will be nipped in the bud.
"Tho forces at command of the police
chief will be supplemented by 68 spe
cial officers sppointed from the per
sonnel of the local lodge of Elks."
Superintendent Alex Donaldson of the
street cleaning department was one of
the people who made personal complaint
to the mayor today. Mr. Donaldson says
that his men were hampered so much
between 2 o'clock and 4 this morning
that they were able only by persistent
effort to put the streets In order.
Crowds of "tough guys" would surround
each flushing machine and dumping
cart and unhitch the horses. Superin
tendent Donaldson says these crowds
did not Include a single member of the
Elks and that if his men are bothered
tonight somebody may be hurt.
