The superior quickness of Ameri can workmen was strikingly illustra ted not long ago, when a number of them were sent to Europe with a shipment of American locomotives. With previous consignments only a foreman and his assistant had been sent, and local labor was relied upon for all the work save superinten dence; but the foreign workmen were so leisurely in their habits that it took thorn twice as long as the same force of Americans required for the task.

The Illinois association, opposed to the extension of suffrage to wo men, issued its semi annual report. The report states that there is a growing conviction that, the best work of women lies along the lines of moral influence and unselfish en deavor, and that if women would teach their children, “in a broad lib eral way, the great principles of temperance and chastity, they would do more in a generation toward erad icating the evils of intemperance and impurity than they could do by a century of voting Woman suffrage is characterized by a retrograde movement, tending to that "abso lute individualism which < haracter izes only the lowest form of social life."

President McKinley is not coming to Oregon. Mrs. McKinley’s health is criti cal, and the president and party will not resume their journey to the Northwest and leave her in California. The fact that Oregon will not be honored by a visit from this distinguished personage is to be deplored, but our disappointment will be veiled by a prayer for the resto ration to health of the estimable lady who has overtaxed her strength in order to appear gracious to the interested crowds of spectators who have met the party at every stopping place on their journey.
