They accomplished thla work through their ward civic-betterment associations. It has always been . presumed that women could largely Influence elec tions by persuasion of men of their Immediate households; but these re cent experiences of big elections seem to demonstrate that t'.iey exercise an Incalculable Influence over the mass of voters. It is said that the work done by the women of Philadelphia was most skillfully planned. They worked by aprlor meetings and public meetings, and they distributed tons of litera ture. They requested clergymen to preach sermons on civic righteous ness, and sent wagons to patrol the streets with signs telling the voters Important truths. Added to this was their direct appeal to fathers, broth ers, husbands and sons to vote against candidates who were tainted with corruption. Thus It was shown that virtue in civic affairs can without doubt be promoted by women even though they do not actually vote, and therein is a large field of work for them whether they go further Into questions of state policy or not. "UNITED OREGON." FOR BUSINESS REASONS. The Law Enforcement league Is not m prohibition organization. It Is composed of men interested In the welfare of the city and does not de sire prohibition, nor Is It preparing for prohibition. For business reasons It believes that the saloons should be held In subjection to the people. For this season it has agitated saloon regula tion and has proposed and Indorsed a set of business men for the city coun cil who are Interested In maintaining the hlEh business standards of the city. If this class of men Is elected to the council and the people win over the saloons, the agitation will cease. All the people wish Is moderate regu lation. But if the saloons succeed In car rying the day and the men whom they nave chosen are elected members of the council, It will only embitter the fight and will result In absolute pro. hibltlon being voted In the county next June. The people are Interested In this subject and will not be die tated to longer by the saloons. Decency now will insure peace and stability. Paloon domination now In sures continued agitation for better . mora la Perhups one of the most attractive and valuable advertisements ever suggested for the state of Oregon and her products has Just been proposed by W. A. Cox, general agent for the Northwestern railway lines, with headquarters In Portland. Mr. Cox suggests that every manu facturer, producer and shipper in the state use a uniform mark or motto, the basis of the motto to be the words United Oregon." Truly it would be a slogan that would advertise Oregon to the ends of the earth Suppose every side of bacon, sack of flour, pair of boots, shoes or over alls, blanket harness, or machine manufactured In the state should bear this motto prominently In the design of the maker's name. People In foreign lands who cannot now speak the English' language would Inquire as to the meaning of that motto and these words would be spoken In every country under the sun. It is a thought worthy of the con slderatlon of Oregon maufacturers. It will not only make the state popular and keeD Its Industries before ' the world, but will Inspire closer cpm merclal relations among Oregon con cerns interested In advancing the state. JAPAN AND THE CANAL. ORIGIN OK NOTES IN MODERN MUSIC. In an article entitled "Japan. Our New Rival in the East," In Appleton's Booklover's Magazine for December, Harold Bolce quotes the following of ficial announcement, made by the de partment of finance at Toklo: Our trade doubled decenlally dur Ing the 20 years from 1S68 to 1888 and scptennlally after the latter year and If the same rate Is maintained k..ifnr the volume of trade will reach yen $1,060,000,000 ($108,521. 184 in 1909. Mneonver. the completion Of the c ranni will stimulate our trade with South Anjcrica, especially with Brazil and the Argentine Re public, and not Improbably enable us to find for our merchandise new mar kets on the west coast of Africa. Again, as many railways are now under construction In the Interior of China with a view to tapping her In exhaustible wealth, our commercial relations with her In our position as her close neighbor, will, with the ex ploitation of her natural, resources, become more Intimate than ever. WOMEN AS A POLITICAL FORCE. Reports from charltableu societies say that fewer people were found In needy circumstances In Pendleton yesterday than on any preceding Thanksgiving day' In the later history of the city. Fewer families were found who had no Thanksgiving din ner prepared, fewer children In need of the necessities of lite were found and fewer cheerless homes than ever before In the city. There Is a signifi cance in this. The suppression ot public gambling In this city and the Sunday closing of saloons has left the worklngmanwlth money to spare for his wife and babies. Saloons may be depositing less at the banks than formerly, but wives and children are wearing warmer clothes, better shoes and have more to eat, to offset this "financial calamity." This Is worth remembering on election day. FIRST AMERICAN COACH. Virtual possession of the franchise may become a real privilege of American women without their ever having or exercising the privilege of voting at elections. Strong evidence of this exists In the recent triumph ot Jerome in New York, when he show ed himself greater than parties. There seems a great likelihood that the women are due much of the credit for electing him. They con ducted an enChusiastlc campaign for Mm. They sent out a million copies of a pamphlet telling "Why Women Back Jerome," and postal cards by the hundred thousand, written In seven different language, with In structions how to voie a split tlck-U The victory for civic righteousness la Philadelphia is also said to be In As public conveyances, or the Btago coach, had been In vogue In England since 1610, the establishment of a similar convenience was demanded In America many years before the war for Independence. As early as 1744, therefore, a stage line started to run between New Brunswick and Trenton, N. J., and, by 176(1, this route had beeen extended over from New York to Philadelphia. Moreover, as In England, so In America the advent of the stage coach necessitated marked Improve ments In the highways, while the building of better roads and turnpikes naturally created a greater lemand for more coaches, and, what was more to the purpose, lighter vehicles. In 1771 there were but 38 conveyances 'if every description In the city of Philadelphia, but by 1734 there num ber had increased to 827 more than two-thirds of whl"h were compara tively light vehicles a condition which led one of the local papers to publish a most deprecatory article concerning the use of conveyances. In which It was stated that the custom of riding was then being carried to such an extravagance that "even far mers want carriages." Metropolitan Magazine. The following brief account of the origin of sacred music Is taken from the notes of Rev. Maurice J. lijnva ter's address delivered before a large and most attentive audience at St. Michael's Episcopal church at North Yakima Sunday night: , Probably the earliest notlco that we have of the celebration of choral and Instrumental religious music com menced under the regime of 'the prophet Samuol, who originated the "Schools of the Prophets." After the annolnting of Saul the prophet Sam uel told him that he should meet certain significant signs of divine fa vor, one of which was that he would be met by a company of the prophets who would sing "before him to the accompaniment of psaltery, tabret, pipe and harp.' By the time of Sol omon both Instrumental and choral music were an important part of the services of the Jewish church. Christian chorul music originated with Christ Himself. After the Last Supper, which that beautiful and striking masterpiece of Da Vlnel so graphically portrays, the holy scrip tures tell us that the Lord and His apostles "sang a hymn" and proceed ed Immediately to the Mount of Olives to the scene or the Passion In the Garden of Gethsemane. Ever after that hymn singing formed a part of the worship of the church, Paul tond Silas sang In prison immediately be fore the conversion of the Phlllplan Jailor and his whole family to the faith. The first efforts to systematize the music of the early church appears to have been made by Ambrose, Bishop of Milan, A. D. S94. He gathered the traditional melodies of the early apostles and also gleaned In the Greek realm of music (which was de voted to profane and Idolatrous uses) and Introduced into the music of the church the Doric, Phrygian. Lydlan and Mvsco-Lydlan scales, so that the Ambroslan chant becomes the earliest written music which has come down to us. It was exceeaingiy cruue that. Ambrose was followed about 200 years later by Gregory the Great. who In 690 collated his "Antlphonarl um." following the model, only much elaborated, of Ambrose. He intro duced Into the chant the Intonation, recitation, mediation and cadence. (These were Illustrated by Dr. Har rison to the choir after the service.) In the Gregorian Antlphonarlum there were no accidentals, sharps, flats nor measures. In the eleventh century Guldo Ar etlno Introduced a system of notation which brought into use for the first time the "scale." It contained only six steps, or notes without acciden tals. He took the first syllable of the first line In ancient Latin hymn to St John, Baptist, for the names ot the notes, to-wtt: (do) At-queant faxls. (re) Re-sonare fibrls.' (ml) Ml-ra gestorum. , . (fa) Fa-mull tuorum.. , (sol) Sol-ve pollatl. , (la) La-brl seatum Sancte Johan nes. Later "at" (except In Germany where It still stands) was changed to "do" and "si" was added giving the octave. So the oldest notation, three lines, gradually grew to five. Toward the last ot the fourteenth century we find the "contrapunctum" or counter point and elaborately harmonized services. Luther and Calvin were the first to grasp harmony for the serv ices of the church. These added a tremendous power and weight to the Feformatlon. Later the "Missa Mar celll" was produced by Giovanni Per lulgl of Palestrlna, afterwards pop ularly called "Palestrlna." which was the birthplace of Perlulgl. His school of music Is the forerunner of close harmony. His motets and masses are still looked upon as masterpieces and are sparingly used In continental ca thedrals. His works are the model for the music which Immediately fol lows that of Bach, Handel, Haydn, Mendelssohn, Beethoven and the modern sacred musicians. Perhaps nothing of Palestrlna can begin to compete with Beethoven's "Mount of Olives" or the Gloria In the same. OLD PEOPLE CONSTANT SUFFERERS IM tn MTPD Most old rwonle are rreat sufferers in Winter. Thev 111 " " are seldom free from pains or ailments of some description, 'because Uiey are not as able to withstand the severity of the climate, with its damp, changing weather, ns are their younger, more vigorous companions. Cold weather starts the old aches and pains; they suffer with chilly sensations, cold extremities, poor appetite and digestion, nervousness, sleeplessness and other afflictions peculiar to old age. With advancing years the strength and vitality of the system boffin to decline. The heart action is weak and irregu lar, the Mood becomes thin and sluggish in its circulation, and often some old blood taint that has lain dormant in the system for years begins to man ifest itself. A wart or pimple becomes a troublesome sore or ulcer, skin dis eases break out, or the slight rheumatic pains felt in younger days now cause sleepless ni?hts and hours of agony. There is no reason why old age should not be healthy nnd free from disease if the blood is kept pure and the system strong, and this can be done with S. S. S. It is a medicine that is especially adapted to old people, because it is made entirely of roots, herbs and barks, selected for their purifying, healing and building-up properties, and is. very mild and irentle in its action. S. S. S. warms and reinvigorates the sluggish blood so that it moves with more rapidity, and clears it of all impurities and poisons.

A prouder people than the Spanish do not exist on earth. But this pride is a lofty sentiment exhibiting Itself, not In contempt and superciliousness toward others, but In a general cour tesy and dignity animating the rela. lions of every class In the community. The distinctions between class and class are much less accentuated In Latin countries than In the north. I have seen fine ladles, adorned with the latest creations from the Rue de la Palx. talking gossip In the most friendly way with the poorest beggar women. The Spanish grandee will converse and exchange cigarettes with an omnibus conductor, and it will of ten be doubtful which of the two ex hibits the greater grace and courtesy. For, though proud and Ignorant to the last degree, and In most things half a century behind the rest of Euorpe, the Spaniard Is an adept In the little arts and charming courte sies that make life easy. Countsuml marnulses and every variety of no blemen are as numerous In Spain as colonels In America. But an urlstocracy. as It Is under stood In America, powerful, wealthy, holding itself aloof from the people and exercising a special political and social Influence, simply does not ex 1st. And this land of Spain, which figures in the northern Imagination as the soil, par excellence, of the grandee and hidalgo, and the home of stately ceremony and gorgeous rite is In the sense I have described, in truth the most democratic country In Eur ope.
