rj Itc gattj forimt. ASTORIA, OREGON: SUNDAY. FEBRUARY 15, 1SS5 WOMAX SrFFIiA GE. A vigorous effort in behalf of wom an suffrage is being made at this session of the legislature. The ad vocates of the measure argue that the legislature can grant the suffrage right to women, if it sees fit so to do, by direct legislation. The opponents of the movement say that the fact that the proposed constitutional amendment was overwhelmingly beaten last June is sufficient argu ment against immediate considera tion of the measure. The judiciary committee of the slate senate has been listening to ad dresses from different advocates, finally reporting back the bill with out recommendation. The argument that the advocates of the measure make at this time is substantially this: All power in this state is vested in the legislative as sembly, except such as is prohibited to it in the constitution of the United States or this state. The state constitution contains this provisien: "In all elections not otherwise pro vided for by this constitution, every white male citizen of the United States of the age of twenty-one years and upwards who shall have resided in the slate duriug the six months immediately preceding such election, and every white male of foreign birth of the nge of twenty-one years and upwards -who shall have resided in the stale six months immediately pre- pd!nr CtlMl olcofinn Olirl r11 1.r. to w w.,wWU, uun ouau mitt? declared Iris infonfinn nf Wnminn i citizen of the United States one year preceding such election, conformably " .... , ., . iu iuu iiii vi. iuu uuuea oiaics on the subject of naturalization, bhall be entitled to voto at all elections au thorized by law." This is the only clause in the con stitution conferring upon any class the right to vote. Section 3, article IL, says that "no idiot or insane per son shall bo entitled to the-privilege of an elector," and Sec. 6, same arti cle, says that "no negro, Chinaman or mulatto shall have the right of suf frage.' Now if women areignored both in the recital of those who are endowed with and thoso who are disbarred from tbs right of franchise, it is argued with great show of reason that the reserve power of legislation where it does not conflict with con stitutional provision gives the legis lature authority to confer upon the women of Oregon the right of suf frage. Justice suggests the confer ring of such right In the generally accepted idea of heaven it does not seem to us as though there was any enjoyment for a very largo class of deserving people. A heaven which constitutes a -watch-tower from which its occupants could htill survey the miseries of the earth would really be n place of acute men tal suffering for its most sympathetic and meritorious inhabitants. Even if we can imagine them so destitute of sympathy as not to care about the suffering: they saw while enjoying themselves, yet, even in that case, it seems as though they would have an unhappy time waiting for others whom they loved, particularly if those others were in alleged torment. This is one reason why a good many peo ple don't take much stock in that story about Lazarus enjoying himself in heaven over Dives begging in helL for a sup of water. It doesn't look consistent. A man can't hurt himself by stead ing squarely by what he "believes in his soul is right. Nor can he injure his character or his reputation there by. There is a brand distinction be tween character and reputation, for one may be destroyed by slander, while the other can never be harmed except by its possessor. Our reputa tion is inno man's keeping but our own. Our character may be. "We cannot determine what other men shall say. and think about us. We can only determine what our actions give them aright to say and think about us, and this can only be done by having some positive opinions and staying with thoso opinions. '-5 - It is said that often under favor able circumstances, men on board a vessel a hundred miles from shore hear the ringing of bells on placing their ears in the foous of the main sail ; and so as we sail on the ocean of life, often, under favorable circum stances, is the music of the hannv past, of childhood hopes and youth ful memories wafted to our ears, cheering us with hopes of a happy home beyond the misty deep. It requires the labor of five men an entire year to build a locomotive, and this is tho average at each of the six teen locomotive works in the United States. Kentucky is forming anti-boll ring ing societies, and will try and put a fitop to the pounding of church-bells on Sunday. There is about as much sense in ringing a bell for church as for going to bed. Babon- Rothschild once advertised for a chef who could, .concoct 3T5 dif ferent soups, one'for-each day in the year. He found him, and paid him a salary of $10,000 a year. I Os several transatlantic shins tele phones are now used between the bridge and the wheel-house, instead of speaking-tubes, as heretofore. Statistics show that there, is less crime in the United States in propor to the population than in any other -country in the world. Fifty years ago the averaee weicht of beef cattle was 800 pounds, now it is 1,400. MAItKlED. Tln3A4t0ri,?' ,r? Fcb-14 1885, by Kev. W.S. Hamlin. Marf.i ii Olcnn on.i iir:.
