CALL FOR SESSION
ON SUFFRAGE NOT
OUT OF QUESTION
Governor Not .Unalterably Op-
posed -and Women Apparently
Busy . Lining; Up Legislator.
SPEAKER JONES IS BACKER
Executive of House Says in Mat
ter of v Such Importance Ex
,: pense Should Not, Hinder?
Salem, July : 28. Representative
James 8. Stewart of Fossil declared
this morning in favor of a special
session of the state legislature, at, the
expense of the legislators themselves,
to ratify the woman suffrage amend
ment to the national constitution.
Stewart was ' a visitor at the state
capitol today. He believes it will be
an easy matter to secure a favorable
expression on the session from a ma
jority of the, legislators, and that they
will be willing- to come at their own
expense, f- The others, he believes,
will come i if the session Is called,
rather than miss a vote in favor of
the amendment.
Salerno July 28. A special session
of the Oregon legislature for the pur
pose of ratifying the woman suffrage
amendment to the national constitu
tion is not at all without the range of
possibilities. In fact. It is believed
in State I House circles that such a
session is highly probable, and that
within the not far distant future.
This belief Is gaiQng strength with
each passing day
Governor Olcott U by ne means unal
terably opposed to a special session. Al
though he has declared himself as of the
opinion that such'a session at this time
would be Ill-advised, he has expressed
bis willingness to issue the call ' upon
two considerations : First, that condi
tions throughout the nation should be
come such as to justify a special session
of the Oregon body; second, that a ma-
Jority of the members of the Oregon
legislature should voluntarily petition
him te call the session.
ACTIO IJT EAST AWAITED .
In either event, however, he has made
it clear that the session would be held
at the expense of the legislators them
selves, tas he does not- believe the ex
penditure of $5000 more pr lees, as
would be required from the funds of
the state to be justified by the circum
stances. ' ...
The condition which would make a spe
cial session justified in the eyes of the
governor is taken here to mean the need
of one more state to complete the rati
fication. It is known that Governor
Olcott feels that some of the eastern
states, whose positions are not, se clearly
defined ,on the suffrage Question as
that of Oregon, should step -out at this
time and show their colors.
The delegation of women who waited
on the governor last week in the interest
Of a special session, urged him to sound
out the members of the legislature "with
a view- to securing an expression of
their sentiment on the matter, as , has
been done in some other states. This he
refused to do, declaring that it would
be a far better expression of the real
sentlrhent existing among the legisla
tors themselves if the petition should
come from them voluntarily.
"WOMEJT ARE BUST
Developments since the visit of the
delegation of women to the state capitel
indicate that the women have taken the
governor at his word and are busy se
curing the required "voluntary" peti
tion a
. Although Representative Eugene Smith
of Multnomah county is the only legis
lator who has so far informed the gov
ernor of his willingness to attend a pe
dal session at his own expense, it is un
derstood here that Senator Orton and
other members of the Multnomah county
delegation have expressed themselves fa
vorably On. that point.
Following the -receipt of a telegram
from Congressman McArthur, Saturday,
Seymour Jones of Salem, speaker of
the house of representatives in tne
last' legislature, gave out an ' inter
view in which he declared himself not
only in favor of an immediate call
for a special session of notification,
but is of the opinion that .the governor
should not ask the legislators Ho at
tend such a. session at their own ex
pense. .
"The question is of such importance
"Unrequited
Salesmanship"
Whn you buy an autcmobile, an electric launch or
a new Swiss Brown, you become not only an owner
buan advocate.
i "yfeur judgment leads not only to investment, but to
partisanship, for a time. You act aa an "unrequited
salesman" in the TTords of a well-known advertising;
man. ;
One of the chief accomplishments of advertising is
to keep active the enthusiasm of the owner-advocates
and to furnish perhaps a brief for his continued special
v pleading, - x j.
Obviously a man'can not brag, conveniently of the
nameless or thejbrandless. ,
Advmising'roakes it easier for the user to point
. with pride and in stimulating unrequited salesmanship
adds seven-league boots to any product.

that I believe the governor should
call the session" regardless declared
Mr. Jones. "However, I believe a ma
jority of the members, even with that
condition i imposed, will 1 ask that an
extraordinary session be convened."
Ia s. telegram which he sent in
reply to Congressman McArthurs ap
peal In behalf of the special session,
Speaker Jones' said: ; - '
"1 am strongly , in favor fa P-
cial session of the legislature te ratify
the woman suffrage amendment, win
urge members to waive mileage and
salary in order : that., special session
may be secured.' The women ef the
state and nation are justly entUJed to
Oregon's speedy action. JCo condition
should arise or be imposed that may
possibly .delay ratification. J- ,
ALl EXPECTED TO COME .
In connection with' the "second condi
tion imposed by the governor as a
requisite . to hla calling the special
session, ' it is pointed out ;. here that it
will be a ' comparatively easy matter
to secure a favorable petition on the
part of a majority of the members
of both the house and senate. A sub
stantial majority of the 99 members
of - the legislature live in the western
part of the state, within comparatively
short distances from the state capital.
To these the matter of expense would
be a relatively email Hem and . no
great amount of pressure would be
necessary in order tedeonvince them
that the expenditure of a few1 dol
lars and the devotion of a day's time
to legislative affsirs Jurt new-, would
be both time ; and money well spent.
In that event, it Is believed, here that
legislators farther removed from the
capital would also get into the game"
rather 'than run the risk of being left
out in the cold while their colleagues
are gathered under the dome of the
canitol building for the "purpose of
passing upon one ef the biggest ques
tions before the nation today.

Mr. Bryan, "to renew acquaintance

sion ef the state." t:
Asked as to hla opinion of former
President "Taft's proposed compromise
on the acceptance ef the treaty of peace
by the senate, Mr. Bryan replied:
"I Would like to see the treaty ratified
without any reservations or resolutions;
but I see nd objection to the adoption
of resolutions, provided they did not
interfere with the purposes of the treaty
or require action on the part of other
governments. The Republicans might
be content to express resolutions look
ing to future changes," he said. These
would be harmless if not made a part
of the ratification.
IKDEPEJTDEXCE DEXIED
If will be remembered that ' the
Democrats in Washington made a fight
in favor of a resolution requiring this
government's purpose regarding the
Philippine Islands when the treaty with
Spain was ratified. I resigned my com
mission ln the army at that time to go
to Washington and work for the pas
sage of a resolution promising Inde
pendence to the Philippinea ,
"Senator Hoar and a number of other
anti-imperialists ; advised rejection of
the treaty in the hope that Spain might
be compelled to free the Philippines,
but I thought it better that we end the
war and take up the question of the
independence of the islands afterward.
I The treaty was ratified and the resolu
j tion I carrying the nation's intention to
; recogniae the independence of the Phi
' lippines wa "defeated by a very small
; majority. . , - ' ,. , ,.
; "It seems to me that the present
problem can be solved in the same way.
The Republicans can Join in the ratifi
cation of the treaty and suggest In the
form of resolutions any changes they
hope to see made tn the League of Na
tlona covenant. These proposals for
future amendment can be considered by
the people at the next election without
delaying the ratification ef the treaty
of peace or . the establishment of . the
League of Nations." .- ,
EXCEPTIONS ARE .
; GIVEN BY HUGHES
: (OoatiBod 9mm fuf O )
justice for his opinion as to what
ervatiens te the peace treaty and league
covenant should be made "to safeguard
the interests of the country.
Hale said that "many of us are in
favor of having the United States enter
a league of nations, providing that in
so - doing we ao not sacrifice the sov
ereignty or traditional policies of our
country. He added . that "we believe
the proposed covenant now before the
senate does make such a sacrifice.1
KEED FOB, LEAGUE SEEK
There is a plain need for a-league
of nations," Hughes replied, in order
to provide lor toe adequate develop-
merit of international law for creating
and maintaining organs of international
justice and the machinery of concilia
tion and conference, and for giving ef
fect to measures of International coop
eration which- from time to time may
be agreed upon.
"St is manifest that every reason able
effort should be made to establish peace
as .promptly as possible and to bring
about a condition in which ' Europe can
resume its normal industrial activity.
Hughes said he perceived no reason
why these objects cannot be attained
without sacrificing the essential inter
ests of the United States' and ' sug
gested there was a "middle ground be
tween aloofness and injurious commit
ments. - -
"One must take a light-hearted view
of conditions in the world 'to assume
that the proposed plan will guarantee
peace," he- said. TRather. the proposed
covenant should be regarded- as a mere
beginning."
HUGHES IDEA., EPITOMISED
According to Hughes, "the prudent
course would be to enter the proposed
league with reservations of a reasonable
character which should ' meet
with ready assent. " - ; '
Regarding the validity ef reservations.
Hughes said there was no need to as
sume that a reservation would lead to
the -complete failure of the treaty or
compel a resumption ef the peace con
ference, when the reservation leaves un-s
impaired the main provisions of the cove
nant.- Ha added that any nation making
reservations "is not bound further than
it agrees to be bound."
Referring to Article X as a "trouble
breeder and not a peace maker," Hughes
said:
. "It Is Idle to attempt to commit free
peoples te the making of war m an un
known contingency when such - a war
may be found te be clearly, opposed to
the aictates oi justice. -WOULD
LIMIT ARTICLE TEX
"Of course, a limitation of the oper
ation of Article X to a period of years
would be preferable to the indefinite ob
ligation proposed. But, jn my judgment.
it would be better that, if Article X
is not eliminated, a reservation and in
terpretative statement should be
adopted."
In addition to Article X,r Hughes at-v
tacked Article I fright of withdrawal).
Article XV (relating to domestic mat
ters), and Article XXI "relating to the
Monroe doctrine).. ' H contended that
the "deeeriptive phrase employed in Ar
tide X Is inaccurate and the meaning
of the article is far from clear."
ISTEBPKETATIOSf OEEEBED
The resolution' suggested by? Hughes
regarding reservations read as follows:
The senate of the United States of
America advises and consents to the
ratification of said treaty with "the fol
lowing reservations and understandings
as to its interpretation ana ellect to oe
made part of the instrument of ratifica
tion. -
First : That whenever two years notice
ef withdrawal from the League of
Nations shall have been given, as pro
vided in article I of the covenant, the
power giving the notice shall cease to be
a member of the league or subject to
the. obligations of the covenant of the
league, at the time specified in the
notice,- notwithstanding any claim,
char re or finding of the non-fulfillment
of any international obligation or of
any obligation under said covenant ; pro
vided, however. thatf sacn witnarawai
shall not release the power from any
debt or liability theretofore incurred.
EMPHASIZED
Second : That questions relating to im
migration, or the imposition of such
duties on imports- where such questions
do not arise from any International en
gagement, are questions of domestic pol

which, accord me to international law.
are solely within the .domestic Jurisdic
tion, are not to be Submitted lor tne con
sideration or action of the League of

Third : That the meaning of article
XXI of the covenant of the League of

America does not relinquish Its tradl
tional attitude toward purely American
questions, and is not required by the
covenant to submit its policies regarding
auestions which it deems to be purely
American- Questions, to the league of

pose and prevent any acquisition by any
non-American power by conquest, pur
chase or any other manner, oi tne ter

Fourth: That the meaning of article

Washington. July 2. (WASH
INGTON BUREAU OF THE JOUR
NAL) Several appeals have . come
to members of the : Oregon delega
tion to release the property of the
Klamath Indians, sow held in Com-
mon, to the individuals, which, it is
argued, would lead to more rapid
development and give the Indians a
larger income. .
Senator McNary who la a member of
the Indian affairs committee of the sen
ate, as he was in the last senate, says
he cannot consistently support this pro
rosed legislation, looking at it from
the standpoint of the Indians as wards
ef the : government.
PAST t'EBFOB.M AJTCES
We have abundant example in the
past of what becomes of the property of
the Indian when he is given-fee simple
title te property in advance of the time
when he is competent to - safeguard his
interests, said McNary. "The Indian
becomes the victim of Some designing
white man. loses his property, and in.
the course ef a few years is back ask
ing alms of the government.
-I want the Indian to have the fullest
enjoyment of his property and to have
control of it when he Is determined to
be competent. But it is necessary for
the government to proceed carefully in
protecting these wards, and not to per
mit their property to be dissipated ahead
of the time when It can be entrusted
to them aa individuals. : r
"This has been the policy of the gov
ernment and after full consideration of
the matter, I am satisfied It is the right
policy. In the last congress we made
available 1400,000 for the Klamaths. re
imbursable from the sale of timber;
and the Indians should be aided in pro
ductive work, but I do not believe the
time has come to turn this property over
in fee simple to the Indians, whose in
terests must come first when legisla
tion is considered.- vvt .:

Edward B. Ashurst, brother of Senator
Ashurst ef Arizona, who was for some
time connected with the Klamath reser
vation, has been active in urging dis
tribution of ; property to the Indians,
who. he says, have aa estate of $33,000,-
000, sufficient to give each an equity of
Ashurst has the support of prominent
Oregon persons in urging legislation
which would abolish the collective hold
ing of the Klamath landa. It la assert

the benefit of the Indians themselves
