enumerated today for retail procers
of this city hy the Retail (iroeers'
association. Matches, starch, French
Mrdlncs and Saratoga chips are in
cluded in the raise. The tendency to
raise prices has reached slotk raisers,
with the result, it is said, that sheep
owners are holding off for $2 er
head above the unusually hlh price
offered hy the packers.
Retail Broiers and small haters
throughout the city were scheduled
today to slea contracts, which will

A QUERY FOR WOMEN
-T7'IIY should nnv woman vote for Utiftlws?
Mr. Hughes does not. believe tliiit women should
receive etiiiiil tjiiv for cotial work. He thinks men entitled
to more money for the same
sex.
When Mr. Hughes was
(instance of the public school
e(iial work measure passed the legislature. He vetoed it
giving the following reason:
It Is proposed by legislative enactment to establish the proposition that
(or the work of ft given position women shall receive equal pay with men
It is fur this principle that tho supporters of tho bill contend, and not tor
mere Increased pay. I cannot approve
This measure was again
signed hy a governor who
women not Hughes.
Mr. Hughes again showed
by vetoing the teachers' retirement pension bill.
.Mr. Jluglies, tlirougnout
favored or in anv way assisted
Until he received the presidential nomination, he was op
posed to votes for women, and his wife and daughters
Avere opposed to it.
When the suffrage amendment was submitted to the
vioters of New York, Mr. Hughes did not vote for it in
fact, he has not voted since
in citizenship.
The l!)l(i platforms of the
parties upon sullrage are practically identical. They read
as lonows:
Democratic Wc recommend tho
of the country by the states upon the
Republican Tho republican party,
of the people, by the people, for the
half the adult people of the country,
to women, but recognize the right of
Itself.
If anything, the democratic platform is the stronger,
as it recommends sullrage to
bean favors the extension,
matter. Neither indorse the national amendment.
President Wilson was the first president to favor equal
suffrage and the only one to vote for it.
After Mr. Hughes had accepted the nomination he de
clared hiinsell in favor of the national suffrage amend
ment, knowing that as president he would be powerless to
deliver the goods, as part of his program of becoming a 100
per cent candidate and shuffling off principles for votes.
Why should any woman vote for Hughes t
ELECT MISS TOWNE
THH MAIL TinHUNT' is concerned with more impor
tant issues this campaign than who will fill county
offices. The selection is more a matter of pei-sonality thaii
partisanship, and the best should be selected, regardless
of party. It feels, however, that an exception to its policy
should be made in one instance, the candidacy of Miss
Marian I!. Towne of Phoenix for representative.
Miss Towne was the first woman to lie elected to the
legislature in Oregon, and as a legislator she reflected
credit not only upon herself, .Jackson county and the state,
but upon her sex. She openly fought graft", chicanery and
jobbery, and vigorously supported welfare and moral
measures. Her record shows that she always voted right.
Those who think a legislator should become a spoke in
a crooked political machine and spend time log-rolling in
behalf of special interests, instead of the public good,
should not vote for Miss Towne, for she will not lend her
self to such tactics. Those who want the highest type of
representation and an honest effort to better our laws and
better conditions and reduce taxation, who desire a
staunch champion of progress and of Jackson county and
of all Oregon will cast their ballot for Miss Towne.
Miss Towne lias unusual advantages. With a good edu
cation, she combines business training, and as chief dep
uty conntv clerk became familiar with public administra
tion. She has a remarkable
government, a quick perception o essentials, a wide prac
tical knowledge of politics.
Fortified by file experience of the past session, and an
extended acquaintance with legislators, a knowledge
gained at first hand of legislative methods, advantages
none of her opponents enjoy, she has merited, and doubt
less will receive, re-election by a record majority.

In Jacksonville there i u remark

River valley, in fnet the fourth while

has four great griimli'liilclren. He
family is liirge, with three g-encru
lions that will vole in Hie eoiniii;
election. All of the members of that
family will support Hughes with one
exception. This great grandmother
shinds tiloiii. in her support of the
I'.iuse of Hoodrow Wilson. Her
name is withheld nt her own request.
"Wooilrow Wilson is a mnn of
wonderful goodness, who has renlly
done his best in Ihc handling- of the
affairs of this nation," she stated
yesterday afternoon." And this
best I consider could not Imve been
eiiunleil hv nny other man in public
life in this eountry. And because of
his record while at the helm of the
ship of slate, I am conliileut that he
will be re-elected.
Criticism Foolish.
'The criticisms; made by the repub
lican party lenders against his han
dling of the Mexican situation I can
characterize as nothing less than
foolish, contentions thai have arisen
from the despernle endeavors of the
republicans for some peg on which to
hang their campaign, really, some
excuse for being-. Wil-on was n shin
ing light in his handling of that (iies-
tion. He had no excuse for plunging
this nation into war, and he sought
none.
'.Mr. Wilson is n gentleman in ev
r.v way. During nil the heat of Hie
aiiipuign be has not once lost his
head and resorted lo the tactics that
have throughout the struggle char-
leterized the republican party.
"His handling of the threatened
railroad strike was nothing- short of
masterly. We people of Oregon would
have really tasted hard times had not
his action heen so swift and sure.
And for his solution, bis fairness to
both parties to the controversy, he
will be rewarded with thousands of
votes.
As to Itimsevelt.
'As to Theodore Kousevelt, who is
so earnestly espousing the cause of
.Mr. Hughes, I can .give you my opin
ion in very lev words, when I say
that the only good thing of his pub
lic record came when he put a dem
ocratic president in office, for that,
ill effect, is what lie did when he
brought about n split in the ranks of
the republican party. His actions
nice have shown him to he a traitor
to the progressive as well a- the re
publican party.
