' PORTLAND,-Ore., June 21. Sincer
ity covers a multitude of sins. Take
Miss Alice Robertson, member from
Oklahoma, for example. In her speech
at the Portland auditorium this after
noon, Miss ItobertKffii sinned aKJiliiHt
the democrats, by prijclaiiiiing a lf'"
per cent republicanism, she sinned
against the club women, who surround
ed her on the speaking platform by
accusing them of being long on talk
and short on action; she sinned
against the. supporters of the Fedoral
Maternity bill by opposing that mea
sure in toto; she sinned against the
canons of good taste by injecting poli
ties into a non-political meeting; and
yet she committed all these indiscre
tions with such manifest sincerity,
with such complete candor and hon
esty, that she retained the affection
and respect of tho vast audience If not
their complete approval.
Sincerity is not greatness, but no
person can lie great without sincerity.
It is probably safo to say Miss Robert
son is one of the most sincere persons
in public life today. No one can doubt
she absolutely believes what sho says
and says whatever she believes. She
carries fearlessness to the point of
apparently needless self-sacrifice, i
Imagine a. woman spealjng to an
audience of women, admitting she had
opposed woman suffrago, national, pro
hibition, and fedoral aid to mothers!
One cuuld scarcely believe one's ears.
Mayor Baker who presided couldn't
believe his. He held onto his left ear
with one hand throughout the speech,
and when it was all over could scarce
ly stagger to his feet.
"Miss Robertson," he finally ejacu
lated, "has told us many interesting
things this afternoon. Perhaps we do
not agree with them ull but It took
courage to say them."
Ah Ha! There spoko the clever po!l
tlclan. No one can accuse his honor of
agreeing with Miss Robertson, and yet
Miss Robertson could scarcely take of
fenHe for her courage is complimented.
No .votes lost coming or going. -, I
It was altogether a rather amazing
performance, nnd typically American.
In no other country could a Congress
man Alice Robertson be possible. Just
as in no othor country could a Presi
dent Lincoln have been possible.
It would be straining a point to call
Miss Robertson a female Abraham
Lincoln, and yet we would be much
surprised to find that her best friends
don't do so. Abo was one of the
"plainest" men alive, so Miss Robert
son is one of the plainest of women.
Lincoln rose from rail splitter to the
White House. Miss Robertson rose
from conducting an Oklahoma cafe
teria to congress, "swept Into con'
gress on a sea of soup," as sho ex
pressed it. Lincoln had a keen sense
of humor, so has Miss Robertson; Liir
coin really loved the common people,
so does .lins Robertson ; Unrein com
bined tremendous religious tolerancr
with a devout nnd Hlmple faith in God
so, also. Miss Robertson. '
And so on nnd so forth, making
quite a case for the nice motherly
member from Oklahoma. The only dif
ference lies, perhaps, In opportunity.
It was as president, that Lincoln' at
talned greatness. If Miss Miss Robert
son Is elected president one of these
days and the .country is engulfed in a
great war, say a war between capital
und labor, perhaps the comparison
would not be so far fetched after all.
Certainly with political miracles all
around us, tills is no time to-'be didac
tic. Anything can hapien. If a wom
an can ride into congress on a 'sea of
soup, why not Into the White House?
- -
Hut the outstanding characteristic of
Miss Robertson is her sincerity. This
is something more than niere freedom
from flippancy and guile. It is a big
ger thing. It might be culled spiritual
Integrity. And In any public person
age it is a rare quality, very rare.
H is this quality which gives Miss1
Robertson true dignity, which raises
her above the commonplace, which en
titles her to a certain claim on that
elusive thing called greatness.
She is not a cultured woman, 'not
brilliant, not, we should say particu
larly enlightened. "Yet It would be
unjust to leave the Impression that
she Is the feminine counterpart of a
Sock less Simpson. She is a nice ap
pearing, simply dressed, unassuming
old lady, and strange to say although
an old maid, the term "motherly" best
expresses her personality (when talk-
in;; about babies she becomes suddenly
appealing, eloquent, dramatic; avquite
startling transformation).
! And her voice Is surprising, a gen
tle voice, sweet, well-modulated, no
suggestion of ,tl9 Madam, CJmlrman
spellbinder, just a quiet conversational
tone, with simple, strangely feminine
gestures, tho gestures of a school-girl
graduate.
All in all wo should say one of the
most interesting nnd unusual figures
In public life today. ;
The Oregonlan is a strange news
paper. Not a word about Miss Robert
son's stand on the maternity bill, nor
her allusions to club women, In their
long white gloves, etc., etc., and not a
word about Jackson county's exhibit
at the Sportsmen's show, but every
thing else fully mentioned.

Every onco in a while, even in the finest clnu'chis,,you find n

Tossibly the Federal Reserve Hoard's efforts to hold us down

American culture has progressed to tho point where a congress
man can wear a dress suit without offending the folks hack home.
LOSES CLAIMS
OLYMPIA, Wash., June 28. Al
though John McMullin appeared be
fore the Biipronio court to arguo his
own cuao, rocontly, tho unsigned de
cision today denied his claim for ad
ditional compensation from the state
Industrial Insurance found tor Inju
ries. McMullin was paid a permanent
partial disability award after tho nc
cldent in Juno, 19111, but ho filed a
socond claim declaring aggravation
of the Injury. The department of la
bor and Industries denied It, but upon
trial in the Thurston county superior
court, It wus recognized. The decis
ion today reversed tho lower court.

KLAMATH FALLS, Oregon, June 23
Strike conditions no longer exist in
tho Klamath county lumber industry,

commissioner,, who has been here in
vestigating, and who before leaving

California labor commission to in
struct employment agencies that they
noed no longer inform prospective
