WOMEN JURORS
One of the measures to come be
fore voters at the election June 7
asks whether or not women shall
be qualified for jury service in Ore
gon. From a general standpoint most
people will agreo that legislation
permitting women jurors is good. If
women aro capable of voting, they
should be given all the other rights
and lncidently duties, that are re-1

The Chronicle so expressed Itself
editorially last .week. Since that
time however, it has developed that
the measure designated on the bal
lot as iNos. 308 and 309 has a
strange twist In its construction
which is going to bring much woe
and expense upon the courts.
Article 11 of section 8, Is an
amendment to section 991 of Oregon
Laws, and Bays:
"Any woman desiring to be excus
ed from Jury service may claim ex
emption toy signing a written or
printed notice thereof and returning
the Bame to tho sheriff before the
dato for appearance, and if exemp
tion la so claimed by reason of sex, ,
no appearance need be made in an

of this material which will bo harm
Turn now to Section 10. which de- fu, A dny op (W0.8 timo ,8 necessary

In the first Boetlou referred to, Ucally comi)o(tli for this season and
ono sees that a woman, by reason that we will bo working in another
of hor sex, doiu not havo to Borve. section next week.
She doesn't havo to go up to tho Tlll) wrl'r ronllzos the spirit of
judge and tell him she is ill, or that tho Kr this reply is made
, , , , , in tho same spirit. Wo who aro work-

shu has to do is to tell tho sherifr Whenever it 1ms been posslblo for us
hlH agent Bho doesn't wont to ,0 u,rullt n camper to spend a night
servo and sign a slip to that effect.
In tho second section the law ex-
pressly provides that in every case
involving u minor under the age or
IS years, one half of the jury must
consist of women.
There you havo it. A woman does,
n't huvo to servo if she doesn't want
to. In certain cases half of the
Jurors must bo women.
A very largo percentage of critn-
inal cases involve minors under tho
ago of 18 years. Some of the most
deplorable cases, moral degeneracy,
and so on, as well as the most vio
lent crimen, Involve youngsters.
It stands to reason thut a woman
of delicate BeuBlbilltles is not going
to sit on a jury and listen to evl-
donee so vile In nature that tho
newspapers, in publishing accounts
of the trials, cannot ovou refer to it.
The Wasco county criminal docket
1 u ri,.i ..
cases on whjch come up for trial bo-
, ,
.ginning today, is filled with crliulu.
al charge involving morality. Somo
of these cases are of the mort de
praved type. There aie few women
who would not flush with the shame
of it In hearing some of the evi
dence which will be given. There
are very few women who would con
sent to sit as jurors in these cases
of they knew before hand the na
ture of the testimony.
And one may be sure that women
summoned for jury service, if this
bill passes, are going to find out
the case for which they are called
as venire women. If the case is ob
jectionable, nine women out of ton
are going to exercise their exemp
tion rights.
We will have then, the spectacle
of cases of this kind coming up, at
torneys and court awaiting trial, per
diem and mileage ticking off for the
Venier members who have already
been called, and the sheriff scour
ing tho county for women to make
up their end of the jury box. Cases
will drag indefinitely. The Jury law
is exenorable, whatever its provis
ions may be, and cannot bo waived
Jury service for women is good
Tbey should have that duty if they
are entitled to enfranchisement as
voters.
But if women are going to be jur
ors, they should be bound by tho
same restrictions as men.
In the particulars mentioned
above, the proposed measure is un
. . , , . . ...
sound from every standpoint, wo
men and men will "igree that the bill
as constituted, is impracticable. It
Bhould be . rejected in favor of some
other measure that will bo more
economical and just.

SECTS' TROUBLES
DATE BACK TO WAR
1ST. PAUL, Minn., May 23. The
greatest migration of a religious
sect since the Mormons fled from
Illinois to Utah in about to sturt.
Tho Menonltes, rich from the fer
tility of Canada land, and number
ing from 15,000 to 20,000 will begin
nn exodus from Canada to Mexico
within three weeks, railroad off!
cials stated hero Thursday. Special
passenger trains for the heavily
bearded elders of the sect, their
meek wives and multitude of
children; freight trains for live
stock, farm equipment and house
hold goods, and an army o.' trucks
will bo used In the great moving
day. The railroads estimate the
Mennonites will spend $1,000 000 In
railroad fares.
Members of .the sect claim they
have been persecuted by the Cana
dian government. They will beltle
in western Durango, Mexico, where,
it is stated, they purchase,! a tract
of land at a cost of $5,000,000. The
Mexican government will furnish
free transportation for the migrat
ing thousands from the border, ac
cording to Rev. J. F. Wlebjp, of
Herbert, Sask., who is here arrang
ing for transportation fron various
points in Canada.
The trouble between the Menno
nites and the Canadian government
dates back to war time. The lead
ers of the sect insisted on return
ing to their own communities and
teaching the German language in I
their schools. They refused to en
list for military service, claiming
they were exempted from military
Bervice when they immigrated to
Canada in 1870.
Recently their school trustees
have been fined and impriaone-i tor
rfnlnn to send the children to
schools where English is taught.
Only the orthodox Mennonites will
migate, as the second generation,
well established on fertile farms
that have been worked up to be
tho best In Manitoba by finely
planned Irrigation system, refuses.

are about bu.uw 01 inn: sci in
