Street Committee Made Personal In esxlgation of Material and Method In Portland, and Are Said to Favor Bltulltlilc to a Certain Extent Definite Action by This Council Is Forecasted, Though None Can Tell When One Great Need Is Better Surface Drainage. At the meeting of the city council to be held tonight It la understood a report will be made by the street committee upon the subject of paving Main and Court streets. For several weeks past the committee nas been busily engaged In investigating the subject, and a few days ago they went to Portland to personally Inspect the various classes of pavement In use there. While the exact nature of the com ing report is not known. It Is evident that the individual members of the committee are all favorably Inclined towards bltullthlc pavement. Accord ing to Councilman Renn, the pave ment of that kind now In use in Port land is much better than the asphalt, as It does not wear out like the lat ter. As to when definite action towards paving will be taken by the council there is some doubt, though all of the members are saJd to be favorable to ordering the Improvement. The first step taken will doubtless be to secure specifications for the work, so that the same may be included in a reso When You Are Hurt THAT'S THE TIME TO USE F & S Liniment It is a reliable remedy that should be kept In every home.

A person who has a savings account is in a measure a public benefactor, because in his modest way, he does his share to Increase th amount of money per capita in active circulation. The person who does not keep a savings account, but hides his money in our-of-the-way places, withdraws that money from circulation and thereby retards the full growh and prosperity of the country, and also robs himself of a legitimate Income.

Although a majority of the property owners of both Main and Court streets have petitioned for the pavement, the resolution will be pass. el so as to make the matter doubly sure. The proper steps will then be taken to take advantage of the Ban croft bonding act, whereby property owners may have 10 years in which to pay for the Improvement If they so desire. One of the greatest problems that has been met with In planning for the paving of Main street is that of a drainage system for the surface water. Several schemes have been considered by the engineers, but it Is not yet known what plan may be adopted sholud the paving be order ed. ATHENA CITY ELECTION. I But One Ticket in the Field and Elec !

DISTRIBUTOR FOR EASTERN OREGON. f WWW COMMITTEE OF 56 PENDLETON LEADS IN EQUAL SUFFRAGE MOVEMENT Largest Committee in Eastern Ore orii Organized in Tills City Last Night at Close of Addrms by Miss Mary N. Cliase IteMulu of Equal Suffrage lu Colorado and Wyoming Suffilcent Reason for Its Adoption in Oregon. The largest equal suffrage cam paign committee yet organized In eastern Oregon was organized In this city last night at the close of the ad dress by Miss Mary N. Chase at the First Baptist church, when 58 signed their names to the membership roll. The next largest committee was or ganized in Baker City and Cove, at each If which places about 50 Joined. Miss Chase was Introduced by Judge Stephen A. Lowell, who acted as chairman of. the meeting and who gave a brief yet eloquent review of the growth of popular government, culminating in the demand for equal rights for women the mothers and wives of the soldiers, and heroes who have given their lives for human lib erty. Miss Chase spoke for an hour, re viewing in a most eloquent and direct manner the fight for equal suffrage and the results of the movement In different parts of the world. Her most conclusive points were made In brief reviews of the actual results of equal suffrage In Colorado and Wyoming, where It has been thor oughly tested for a number of years, In those states the polls have been purified, elections have been changed from scenes of rowdyism to orderly, decent events in which drunkenness Is practically unknown, disorder en tlrely eliminated and misbehavior so Infrequent as to render the services of officers unnecessary. In those states women, while enjoy. Ing the ballot, have not become pro. fesslonal politicians, homes have not been neglected, but, in fact, have been elevated and safeguarded, de falcations In office have been elim inated especially in Wyoming, which has had equal suffrage since It was first organized as a territory in 1869, and a better class of men are chosen for office for the reason that women demand clean men and vote for home Interests more closely than men. The results of equal suffrage In Wyoming, alone, should be sufficient reasons for the adoption of the amendment in Oregon at the June election. At the close of the address, the campaign committee was organized by the selection of L. E. Penland as chairman; Mrs. C. S. Wheeler as as sistant chairman, and Mrs. Stephen A. Lowell, secretary. The committee will hold meetings during the campaign and will have charge of public addresses to be given, the distribution of literature, and other matters pertaining to the cam paign. Miss Chase Is delighted with the Interest shown In this city and hopes to see Umatilla county cast a strong vote or the equal suffrage amend ment. Other speakers of national repuia tlon will visit Umatilla county soon to further the work so ably organized by Miss Chase, who is the advance guard of the n ovement . In eastern Oregon. FRANK If.
