Some wom en's organizations are observing this week as, the 20th an niversary, though at this period in 1920 the sui trage hosts were waging a desperate battle to obtain the 19th amend mentV'ratification by a 86th state with final success de layed until August when it was put over on the strength or a single vote margin in the Tennessee legislature. Ratifica- -:-- V-mn nffiria.1 Aurast 26. MVS VVW , It seems longer, for one reason because in more than a wxm individual states, women had attained the ballot ear- lie?. Wyoming was by many years the leader, granting equal suffrage in 1869 while still a territory. .Oregon joined the procession in 1912 after a series of battles led byfbn Scott Duniway who, publishing a newspaper The New Northwest" in Portland, was in the thick of the fight both here and in Washington, whose territorial legislature had in 1869 passed an act granting the ballot to "all white Ameri can citizens, 21 or over," only to have the courts rule that jromen were not citizens. . - The suffragists claimed that in Oregon their cause would have been won much earlier except that the liquor and saloon interests, each time the issue was on the ballot, estimated how rn if wnnlH take to defeat it and then saw to it that the required number of "no" votes were cast no mat i how. At any rate the issue lost 47,075 to 36,902 in 1906 and by an almost identical count in arm h "anti" vote was still about cx.uvu m xaxs but the women managed to round up 61,265 favorable votes. Thus women in Oregon have voted for 28 years and it is difficult to realize what a desperate battle it was that women in the United States, encouraged br the liberalism and en lightenment of the founders, wagea vinuaiiy since ucvum wo- imp whpn Abicrail Adams, wife of John Ad ntn fn him u-h;i hp attended the Continental Con- it 1 uit w ... ... - - - - "By the way. In the new code of laws which I suppose It will be necessary for you to make, I desire that you would remember the ladies and be more generous and faTorable to them than were your ancestors." ... . , . . . Historians now deny that she added, at least in such blunt terms: t "If women are not represented In this new republic, there will be another revolution." , . Mere man thought at many periods thereafter that a revolution more explosive than the first was under way. New Jersey gave the franchise to "women worth $250 in 1790 but took it away again in 1807 when the women "voted the wrong way." The suffrage campaign really got under way in 1848, led by such noted women as Lucy Stone, Susan B. Anthony, Elizabeth Cady Stanton and Lucretia Mott and at a later pe riod by Anna Howard Shaw and Cafrie Chapman Catt., Now, 20 years after their final victory, for the reasons already assigned and for the further reason that women took the, ballot rather gradually and still more gradually formed political opinions independently of their menf oiks', it is sel dom that the average student of public affairs consciously sets about to evaluate their influence upon government. It is not accurately measurable and yet there are times when it is decisive, as in the recent Kansas City election which saw the final extinction of the Pendergast machine ; and while women voters may sometimes be misled or not too thoroughly in formed upon issues or candidates, it may be concluded with out question that us a group they are always well-intentioned and insistent upon honest government in the interests of all that is good .and wholesome. They may be expected, for exr ample, to hold out against American involvement in war even though the male voters may be swept off their feet by events, as they have been in the past. Women have a better idea of the value of human life. t, Mellerdrammcr The idea of the week, as elaborated by a group of Pitts burgh residents with more money than sense and suggested by the president of Carnegie Institute, is to offer a price of $1,000,000 for Adolph Hitler, daid or alive, to be handed up to "justice" before an internatiOBaF tribunal at Geneva for prosecution for "crimes against the peace and dignityj of the wrld." Like Wilhelm II 20 years ago, Hitler would presum ablv be tried, condemned and executed by his "bitterest ene- !. .. 1 Vtia -V; nvAonmsKliT ternationai Labor oince in uerne, ior xne worm iu woiiuer at ..and turn from in awe. Twiddle-twaddle ! Exactly why anyone would make such a suggestion is not very clear, even to others of us who also think that Hitler is a. scourve and a nox uton the the first place, "justice," would be to call a gangster ride "due process of law." People in a crisis no more act in accord ance with law in such matters than they scrupulously observe red' lights when they are in a hurry across a deserted street; Wilhelm II, for whose blood so many people thirsted, after 20 years was found to be probably no more guilty of starting World War 1 than a dozen other people, aoout nan oi inem on the allied side. ! To believe that such a circus parade would do any good is equally naive. Can anyone imagine anything which would more inflame the German people, really cement their national unity, than to see their leader, by deception and violente, be trayed into the hands of their enemies and made the Victim of. foreign justice? Try that on the president of the United States and see what even the republicans say ! And to believe that Hitler's Dolicies. technictues. plans could not be carried throuorh bv Goerinsr.

This columnist list corre sponds with that, tor the four postmaster after the first. The Salem po-tofflce while McOana had it was in the "Jasoa Lee house." present 9(0 Broadway, standing as and where It was erected, beginning in 1840. ex cepting for the south X which was added by Jadge R. P. Boise while he owned and with hi family occupied it. It was bulJt and owned by the Lee mission, and three other missionary famil ies occupied It; two on the sec ond floor, one besides the Lee family on the first floor. -W J. f. Boon owned and after ward occupied that house, and was the last territorial .and the first state - treasurer. So that bouse was the commonwealth treasury for a time. It also, in the early days, serred as the Mar ion county court house, with the county court meeting in It. When Turner Crump was Sa lem's postmaster, the business of the office was transacted In the Thomas Cox store, diagonally op posite the present Statesman building. That was Salem's first store. This writer is not certain as to the location of the Salem postof fice in the administration of the next three postmasters, but prom ises to make a study of the mat ter. Some one ought to do so. The sixth postmaster, Isaac R- Moores. from April 14, 1855. naa the offico a long time. In his term the office was likely at or near the northwest corner of Com mercial and State streets. That corner was for many years occu pied by the Moores block of I. R. Moores and his brother, J. H Moores. "U The next and serenth postmast er was John Hamilton, for a short shift, 1864-5. The 8th, 9th and 10th were N. T. Caton, I. 8. Dyar and T. B. Rickey. Dyar was after ward U. S. Indian agent, and es caped the Captain Jack gang massacre, in 18 73, by prorlng a rood sprinter. Under Rickey, the postoffice was located a little west of the northwest corner of Commercial and Court, on Court street. Rickey lived at the south west corner of Commercial and Marion streets. The Rickey school district, out southeast of the "penitentiary four corners." was named for that family. Where Caton and Dyar had the office, this writer does not know. i H. M. Thatcher was the 11th Salem postmaster. He lived at Front and Dlritlon streets, ac- cordine to the 1871 Salem Di rectory. L. S. Scott was the 12th He was Captain" L. S. Scott. and the 1874 Salem Directory has him sheriff, with his office in the court house, and his residence northwest corner court ana Church streets. He was living in Salem in the 1 ISO's. "W ! "W A. B. Croasman was the 13th postmaster. He was the well known and popular "Al" Croas man. The 1874 Salem Directory has him boarding with H. M. Thatcher, and says he was a mem ber of the firm of Murphy Jt Croasman.' and it contains the in formation that Murphy 4b Croas man were merchant in the "Pat- ton brick, State street. That was the T. McF. Patton block, still standing next ee st of the Ladd 4b Bush United States National bank building. The other partner was J. J. Murphy, who became and was for many years clerk of the Oreeon suoreme court: who owned the historic Murphy build lng, southwest corner State and Commercial streets, now being torn down to make way for a more modern structure, by his son, Chester Murphy, Portland, pres ent owner, who at -one time was i star athlete of Stanford Univer sity. The 1874 Directory report J. J. Murphy a boarding with Mrs. W. Smith, who was given as a widow, on the north side of Court between High and Church streets. (No street numbers in Salem then, and not for some 15 year thereafter, following a groat fight In the city council.) W. H. Odell was the 14 th and next Salem postmaster. He w "General" Odell, who" had been surveyor general of Oregon; who had owned The Statesman news paper from 1877 to 1884. and had in that time been state printer two years. He had married bis teach er In Willamette university, Mr. Thurston. the widow of S. R. Thurston, first delegate in con cress from .Oreeon. who died in office. General Odell wa for long term of years president ' Of the board of trustees of Wlllam ette university. V President Arthur appointed him Salem postmaster, and he served in the 1885-9 period.. The post office In that time was la the present Statesman building, in the corner ; which has long been occupled by the W. C. T. U., and the total force then was General Odell and two or three clerks one of whom wa Scott Bosorth be the least handicap, hut "by refusing -to reccnize - it as a handicap ; by doing the things which.it should have made dif ficult. To most newspapermen good vision is a necessary and constantly overworked servant; B. F. Irvine kept pace with his fellow-editors without it. From his editorial chair and from the nlatf orm he exerted a constant influence for good that was felt throughout the came his handicap to such an extent that he was able to de vote much time and effort to other constructive activity, no tably in the field of education, i The Statesman is proud to count him as one of the many successful journalists who at tained a. portion of their experience and training upon its staff.

Just a little, Mr. Emory " - Laughing, Connie pushed past the crowd, to Linda. She looked very smart and worldly, in her tweeds, her big coat over her arm, a very British "Nanna" in blue serge, with a blue veil, follow ing with the baby, swathed in trailing shadows, in her arms. "Darling!" Constance shouted, and her voice was as high and shrill as ever, "I'd have known you anywhere. How good of you to come!" Harry Emory shook hands gravely, the baby was brought and admired. Ned was introduced. "Who is he?" Constance asked in a stage whisper. "Are you en gaged? He' weet!

They had lunch together, they dined together, they dance to gether afterwards. Linda and Connie gossiped and laughed a they did when they were girls. "My friends, Connie and Harry Emory" Linda said. Her eyes sparkled, she glowed with pride and happiness, except when she thought of the last visitors from home . . . Lawrie, and Delia and thin little Sonny. . . . Oh. If they'd only stayed away!

News Behind Ct PAUL ; WASHINGTON May 1. - A story is current in no less lofty an elevation than Mr. Roosevelt's cabinet that he has a' written list ot preferred vice-presidential can didates. It 1 supposed to read: 1. Robert Jackson, the at- X. Frank Mnrpby, tbtt pre me rourt Justice, . . S. IIur7 Wallace, the agri rnttare secretary. . ' . There may be other names but these .would be relatively Jmma- tertaL There -la o Jim Farley. the postmaster-general, among the first three. M-t Tellers relate Mr. Roosevelt ao longer discusses first place with calling friends. The . assumption that -apparently ' goes with the story is that Mr. Roosevelt will use the complete control he al ready holds over the next conven tion to nominate his secretary of state, Mr. Hull, after declining a third term nomination v for ' him self. - But he ha, they say, been discussing, this Ttce-presldential list within his political coterie. Now this story does not carry ourjssual money-back guarantee, but It Is being accredited without any doubtful reservation by cer tain official authorities, and thus it might-very well be the whole plotted program of Mr. Roose velt's intentions. Certainly it is believed within the agriculture department where friends of the man In the No. 3 slot have taken a sudden Interest In his political future. The story is their answer to the quls-pusiler now popular In 'Washington, namely: "What is Mr. Wallace running for?" He ha been active on the platform and the air, cam-, palgnlng for the radical farm credit contraction bill, of the Farmers Union, against the Bar- den amendments to exempt farm workers from the minimum wage, maximum hours law. Earlier he distinguished himself lobbying In behalf or Mr. Hull's trade agree ment renewal In which his Inter est previously had been casual. This Is Just the kind of ballast a Hull ticket could wse. Politically vital m id wot tern rgions have be somewhat less than enthus iastic over the trade treaty program. CIO groups have considered the state secre tary to be less ClOlab than they would like to have, but Wallace Is their friend. Mr. HnlPs appeal in his native south also may not reach down' to those to whom a poll tax Is burden, but sub marginal Mr. Wallace could reach there for him. While It begins to look like congress will fall, to follow Mr. Wallace's advice on the radical credit contraction bill and will defer it until next session, such action will cause a minimum loss of sleep among those democrats who have their mind on politics. Either way the administration will get the political benefit of the issue for tl campaign, and It the bill is not passed there will be no loud Outcries from horri fied financial economist who be lieve the bill will cause" deteriora tion of the capital structure of the country. Always In the past Mr. Wallace has furnished the administration with one of it best Issues. Be fore the '36 campaign he yanked the then wholly new Idea of crop insurance from bis hat; in '38 it was parity payments. This time hi enthusiasm for reduced In terest rate and contracting In debtedness has reached such a point that his new governor of the farm credit administration.
