Many Women Desire Equal Suftrage
Amendment, While Many
Others Oppose It.
As election day draws near, the
women of the Oregon Equal Suffrage
Association are bending every energy
iu their efforts to convince the male
population that the right of suffrage
should be extended to members of the
fair sex. Opposing them is a stroncr
organization of women known n th
Society Opposed to Equal Suffrage.
ims miter organization is sending
uut eircuiars to voters and doins
everything in its power to defeat the
proposed amendment to the eonstitu
"vii. me latest circular reads
follows:
A PROTEST.
We, American women, eitizfins
the State of Oregon, protest against
me proposal to impose the obligation
of suffrage upon the women of thin
State, for the following, among other
reasons.
1 Tfnn,,n X .
komudo Sumatra is to be re
garded not as a privilege to be en
joyed, but as a duty to be performed.
2. Because hitherto the women of
tins State have enjoyed exemption
from this burdensome duty, and no
adequate reason has been assigned
for depriving them of that immunity.
3. Because conferring suffrage up
on the women who claim it, would im
pose suffrage upon the many women
who neither desire it as a privilege
nor regard it their duty to seek it.
4. Because the need of America is
not an increased quantity, but an im
proved quality, of the vote, and there
is no adequate reason to believe that
woman's suffrage by doubling the
vote will improve its quality.
5. Because the household, not the
individual, is the unit of the State,
and the vast majority of women are
represented by household suffrage.
C. Because the women not so repre
sented suffer no nractical ini
which giving the suffrage will remedy.
7. Because equality in character
does not imply similarity in function,
and the duties and life of men and
women are divinely ordered to be
different in the State, as in the home.
8. Because the energies of women
are engrossed by their present duties
and interests, from which men cannot
relieve them, and it is better for the
community that they devote their
energies to the more efficient perform
ance of their present work than divert
them to new fields of activity.
9. Because political equality will
deprive women of special privileges
hitherto accorded her by the law.
10. Because suffrage logically in
volves the holding of public office, in
cluding jury duty, and office-holding
is inconsistent with the duties of most
women.

Keep the Balance Up.
It has been truthfully said that any
disturbance of the even balance of

can be too careful to keep this balance
up. When people begin to lose appe

imprudence brings on sickness, weak

tonic, craves it, and should not be
denied it; and the best tonic of which
we have any knowlege is Hood's

Franz Edmund Creffleld, self-styled
"Joshua," leader of the Holy Rollers,
was snot and instantly killed in
Seattle at 7:10 o'clock Monday morn
ing by George Mitchell, of Portland.
Mitchell made no attempt to escape
after the shooting, but stood beside
the body of his prostrate victim until
placed under arrest. He told the
police that he shot Creffleld because
he had ruined his two sisters, Mrs.
Burgess Starr and Miss Ethel Mitcholl.
The shooting of Creffleld was wit
nessed by his wife and a few other
pedestrians. It took place outside the
Quick drugstore in the heart of the
retail district. Mitchell had been in
Seattle since Wednesday looking for
Creffleld.
Mitchell was walking up First ave
nue when he saw Creffleld coming
down First avenue with his wife on
his arm. Mitchell stepped in closo to
the drug store and as Creffleld and
his wife went by he drew a .38-caliber
revolver, sending a ball through Cref
fleld s head. The bullet came out
above the right eye. Creffleld fell to
the sidewalk and was carried into the
drug store and Dr. Bories was sum
moned.
Croffield's wife threw herself down
by tils side and wound tier arms
around his neck, kissing his lips
and hysterically exclaiming at the
same time :
"He cannot die, he cannot die; ho
did no harm to George Mitchell." Dr.
Bories lifted her to her feet saying,
"But he is doad, madam."
The woman was taken to police
headquarters with her husband's
slayer and held as a witness. Mitchell
is 23 years old and gave his occupation
as a laborer. At police headquarters
he said :
"I killed him ; I have been looking
for Creffleld, and I got him. I have
no regrets. I am willing to take any
punishment that is meted out to me
without a whimper. I did not kill a
man, I killed a brute. He obtained a
devilish influence oyer my two sisters
and ruined them and I did only what
any true brother would do."
"The police agree with Mitchell and
gave him the best quarters in the jail
making his imprisonment as comfort
able as possible. Portland Journal
