DAILY EAST OREGOXIAN, PENDLETON, OREGON, FRIDAY, MAY 18, 1906. PAGE THREE. MRS. OUNIWAY PLEADS FOR THE1WDMEN Hotel St. George GEORGE DARVEAC, Proprietor. EIGHT PAGES. Made in New York Mrs. Abigail Scott Dunlway, the pioneer of equal suffrage In Oregon, whose life has been devoted to the elevation and advancement of her sex, writes the following; strong communl cation on the equal suffrage question to the Irrlgon Irrigator, which paper Is opposed to equal suffrage: Thanking you In advance for your courtesy In giving your valuable space to the publication of this letter, I wish to submit to the readers of your edl torlal leader In last week's Irrigator, a few of the reasons that underlie wo man's demand for the ballot and our belief that the men of Oregon are now ripe enough In chivalry, patriot ism ana justice to extend It to us even If we should not ask for It (though we have been asking for It fo rover 80 years,) says Mrs. Dunl way. 1st. Our desire for the ballot is based on the Declaration of Inde pendence and the Constitution of the United States. Women asked for the ballot in the early formation of the government through Abagall Adams (for whom I was named) who. by the way, was the wife of one president and the moth" of another. But the new republic was not ripe for the Innovation at that time; and the Constitutional convention of 1787 said to women, "Walt! A republican form of government Is only an ex periment as yet. When we have made a success of the experiment. It will be time enough to admit their moth ers and wives." Abagall Ailams wrote to her hus band In reply to this decision, saying In part, "If you do not admit women to an equal share with, you In the affairs and councils of the nation wfe will foment a rebellion greater than than of the revolutionary war." And from thnt day to the present women have not ceased by such hon orahle and peaceful and logical ef forts as they have from time to time been able to compass, to make the prediction good. True, they stepped aside Apparently, during the war of 1813. the Mexican war and the war of the rebellion, and turned their at tention to protecting their homes, nursing the wounded soldiers, bury.

In this connection please consult the governor of Idaho and his staff, the members of the bench and bar, the heads of all schools and universi ties, the clergy and last, but by no means least, the wives, mothers and grown daughters of these men, whose voluntary testimony In favor of equal suffrage we have on file In our Ore gon headquarters In sufficient quajv tlty to fill many Issues of your other wise excellent and enterprising news paper. Thousands of Oregon women are to day engaged In teaching thousands of Oregon school children, girls and boys together, that "governments derive their Just powers from the consent of the governed."

A RUGBY HER of the suffering and danger in store for her, robs the expectant mother of all pleasant anticipations of the coming event, and casts over her a shadow of gloom which cannot be shaken off. Thousands of women have found that the use of Mother's Friend during pregnancy robs confinement of all pain and danger, and insures safety to life of mother and child. This scientific liniment is a god-send to all women at the time of their most critical trial. Not only does Mother's Friend carry women safely through the perils of child-birth, but its use gently prepares the system for the coming event, prevents "morning sickness," and other die- eja.ww pel wine, uvuft containing valuable information free.

All we ask Is that we may stand beside them, equal with them In all things before the law. We believe the majority of them are ready to grant us this right, and are with u In this struggle and that they will be proud to cast for us their af firmative votes. We believe they will gladly emulate the example of the men of Wyoming, Colorado, Utnh and Idaho, who ex tended the elective franchise to the women of those states almost without the asking, who have always been proud of the consequences, hired scribblers and anonymous correspon dents to the contrary notwithstanding. VERY ANCIENT RUINS. Supiioscd to Date Back to the Bond age of the Israelites. Boston, Mass., May 18. The Rev. Dr. William Copley Wlnslow, a noted archaeologist of this city, has received an extensive communication from Professor Flinders Petrle, the well Egyptologist, containing some highly Interesting details of his recent dis coveries near Cairo, Egypt. According to the statements of pro fessor Petrle he has discovered the remains of the Temple of Onlas at Tel-EI-Yahu-dleh, 18 miles north of Cairo, and he has brought to light evidence of the presence of the Hyk sos, or shepherd kings, ln the Delta, thereby solving an Interesting puzzle on this point. Prof. Petrle also states that he has In all probability, Identi fied the treasure city of Rameses built by the Israelites In bondage thousands of years before the time of Christ. The construction of the city Is referred to In the first chapter of the Book of Exodus. y The mounds of Tel-EI-Yahu-dleh were visited and described In 1825 by Ltnant, the French engineer and ex plorer. Subsequently Greyville Ches ter, Hayter Lewis, Brugsch Bey and others examined or excavated the site. In 1887, for the Egypt Explora tion fund, Professor N'avllle made de termined efforts to disclose the se crets of the mounds, but did not suc ceed. , Professor Petrle, In his communi cation to Dr. Wlnslow, says: "Our discovery of the actual town and tem ple site of Onias Is beyond a doubt. It Is a very clear case of all the known requirements being satisfied as to date, place, conditions and building. Besides the temple site and city, we have a remarkable historical .subject here In clearing the Hyksos cemetery and the great fort of the Hyksos. The tombs contain scarabs of the Hyksos, and we have got at this place scarabs of Khyan, Apept II., and Skhanra, who were probably all Hyksos." Protect Proprietary Medicine.

German Syrup Is the best household remedy for coughs, colds, throat and lung trouble. It quickly relieves the hacking cough loosens the phlegm, and brings sound and refreshing sleep.

HAWAII NEEDS LABORERS. PortuRe-e Immigrants Will Be Indue ed to Go to the Sandwich Island). The northwest states are not alone In their demands for more laborers to carry on the great public Improve ments. The Hawaiian territorial gov, ernment Is alro making strenuous ef forts to Induce settlers to go to the islands, because of the scarcity of la. bor and the Impossibility of securing labor at the right season of the year to save the sugar crop of the Islands. A special from Honolulu says of the effort of the territory to secure For tuguese Immigrants: E. R. Stackable, United States col lector of customs for the port of Hon olulu, has obtained a leave of ab senre and Is now on his way to the Azores Islands to solicit Portuguese Immigrants to labor on the Hawaiian plantations. Mr. Stackable has been commissioned for that purpose by the territorial board of Immigration, and he will endeavor to secure at least 1000 families, which will represent about 5000 people. There Is a law which prevents the planters from sending money to Imml grants, or In any way providing di rectly for their Importation, but the local plantation owners have raised 1300,000 and placed in the hands of the boird of Immigration, which has right to arrange for the coming of the foreigners. CHINESE LOST CERTIFICATES. San Frnnrlsm Fire I caves 25,000 Without Identification. The officials of the local Immigra tion bureau are now confronted with a serious problem and In which argu ments for and against are endless. says a Seattle dispatch. The officials received word from San Francisco that fully 2B.000 Chinamen lost their certificates In the late fire. Many are coming to Seattle, and the officials are wondering what course they will proceed with, If they are accosted with tho remark that certificates were lost In the fire. At the local office It was stated that a thorough examination would be made of each Chinaman who had lost his certificate. If a reasonable ex planation of his movements for the past three or four years Is given, new certificates will be Issued. The In spectors state that the Chinamen know the number of their certificates, he same as te average person knows his residence address. Duplicate cer tificates are on file at Washington, and after some delay, description, etc., of the Chinaman could be produced. Local Chinamen have received word from San Francisco that the Califor nia Chinese are to make an effort before the highest authorities for a complete re-reglstratlon of their peo ple. CLUB WILL BUILD. Portland Coiiiinorclal Association De signs $150,000 Building. A club building six stories hleh. with stores on the ground floor.- a complete Turkish bath establishment In the basement, three upper stories to be used by the Commercial club and the remainder for offices, will be erected by the Portland Commercial club this year, says the Oregon Dally Journal. The organization at a spe cial mooting last evening practically decided upon this plan. The building will cost about $150, 000 and the ground purchased by the olub at the corner of Fifth and Oak streets will cost (95,000.

Correct Clothes for Men $230,000 has already been subscribed toward the project, artd there are yet about 20 of the soliciting committee to report. It la said the sum needed Is now In sight. So well are the building bonds regarded as an invest ment that many applications are re ceived from persons outside of the organization. Pendleton business men have applied for 1500 of the bonds. A subscription of 1100 came frpm The Dalles. The club has nearly 1000 members, and the offlcalls are desirous that the bonds be sold to the membership. The bonds will yield 6 per cent, and are secured by a mortgage o.i the proper ty, so that there is every reason to believe they are an Investment as se cure as city bonds. A payment has been made on the building site, and more money will soon be needed to complete the payment. A levy of about 40 per cent of subscription will be made on the Investors as soon as the building corporation of the club Is formed. Architects are counseling with the building committee on plans for the structure. It will be a com bination building for club and busi ness purposes. One of the floors will be designed for apartments, to be rented to bachelor members of the club, and for use of distinguished vis itors. ' Kidney complaint kills more people than any other disease.

Lumber mills In this state are pre pared now to supply San Francisco with lumber at a rate sufficient to construct 1400 temporary shacks a day, says the Seattle Star. Washing ton mills. It Is said, are capable of turning out approximately 10,000,000 feet a day, and the Oregon mills 4, 000,000 a day. It Is expected that the shipments to California, commencing now, and to continue Indefinitely, will exceed 1.500,000,000 feet. The de mand of course, cannot be supplied, owing to the serious shortage of logs, Lumber dealers have not given San Francisco dealers and contractors any lower rate thon usual, Instead they are higher than what they were some time ago, or before San Francisco was destroyed. A prominent lumberman epeaklng of the supply and lumber rates at San Francisco, said this morning: 'It is generally understood at this time that a syndicate of contractors and financiers are handling all the building In Pan Francisco, even the small temporary shacks. There Is money enough in circulation down there now. to pay a reasonable price for our lumber. I understand that mills in Hum boldt county. In the northern end of California, are making heavy ship ments of redwood. The mills In this state are turning out shipments as fast as possible. We do not expect that he rush will continue for more than a year, as the temporary houses are what the lumber Is needed for now.'

Sores and ulcers are not due to outside causes ; if they were, salves plasters, lotions, etc., would cure them.

The placing of meters to determine the amount of electricity utilized by the city was Indorsed by the city council at' the regular meeting Mon day night. The matter was brought before the council by Councilman Wing and was strongly Indorsed by Councilman Phillips. In the general discussion it developed that a belief existed that the city was not receiving the light provided for by the contracts and the installation of meters would serve, as a protection both to the city and power company. An ordinance will be prepared pro viding for charges to be made by the city engineer when work Is performed for private parties. On account of the character of the duties of the engin eer's office his services are often re quired by private parties and the ordi nance will provide a uniform charge for all work. Lewlston Teller.
