Woman Suffrage In Idaho. The more enthuisastic advocate» of women suffrage seem to clain. that when women shall have beet given the right to vote, m >st if not all, the evils of politics will speed ily disappear, says William E Borah, United States senator iron Idaho, in the Delinator. The mon earnest and distressed opponents of women suffrage, on the othe hand, insists that to extend tin right of suffrage to woman, an« thus beguile her into politics, would demoralize the home, giv< us coarse and mannish women, an« perhaps disturb domesti«- tran<|uil- ity, besides many minor evils 1« follow. As usual, the truth is to lx found in the temperate tone which lies broad and tranquil between the extremes. Woman suffrage will not eradicate all tits evils of politics or guard wholly against all mistakes of gov eminent, but it will tend in that direction. Whatever is accomplished will be for the good and not the bad in politics. It will not make women less relined or less womanly. In fact, 1 think a seaaoniible “mud bath” of politics would perhaps have a cleansing and elevating in­ fluence upon the social cafe life which prevails to such an extent in some of our social centers. Idaho extended to her woman the right to vote in the early days of her statehood. We do not become nt allj excited over the effect < I woman suffrage in our state. But we do declare it to be our deliberate judgment that her presence ill politics, armed with power to en- fcive her demuml, han been sub­ stantially and distinctively for the benefit of politics and society. 11 lindnide«! materially in the securing of better laws along particular lines; especially lias it temle«! to cleanei politics in particular and essential matters. Our women have not al­ ways been no active in polities as they should be, but it has been ob­ served til it when a moral question is up for consideration the majorit) vote of the women has been a power upon the right side. practically one profe «ion. Kxet> should it be incomparably the beet, in general, it is by no means neces­ sarily the beet, or even good at all, for every individual. Men are to ■>e heard saying : “A woman ought to be a wife and mother.” For nost women, this is the sphere in which their characteristic poten- les will find best ami most useful •xpression, both forself and others; out that is very different from say­ ing that every woman ought to be i mother; or that no woman ought to be a surgeon. We may prefer the material to the surgical type; «nd there may be good reason for jur preference; but the surgeon -nay be very useful, and useful or lot, the question is not one of «tight. Thoughtful people should enow better than to make this con- dant confusion between what ought o be and what is. Let us hold to our ideals, let us by all means have our scale of /allies; but the first question in wers or to 1 ■eek conformity to any type. Much ’ ot the evil of the past lisa arisen from the liuiitatiou of aumen to Astoria’s Fifteenth Annual Regatta. Astoria’s Fifteenth Annual Re­ gatta wili;t«e the biggest boat racing event ever held on the Pacific Coast. The free-for-all Pacific Coast Championship Mortor Boat race for a purse of $1000.00 will be the biggest morter boat race ever seen on the Pacific Coast. The entries at the present time are the “Seattle Spirit,” the "Fighting Bob III” of Sacramento, the “Wolff 11” of Port­ land, Oregon, the “Pacer I” of Portland, Oregon, and a fast boat propelled by steam, from Portland, whose name we do not know. Also a boat from Astoria which is about ready to put in the water and which has not yet been named, but from which we expect a good showing. This race will be over a twenty mile course, in three heats, one each day, the best two out of three winning the race. The 32 ft. class will also have about five contestants representing the fastest boats from Oregon, Washington, and California and will also be run in three heats. The 20 ft. class will have probably tile greatest number of entries. It is probable at the present time tlifere will be eight or ten boats in this race. The “Happy Reins” of Rain­ ier, the “Potato Bag” and "Spear” of Portland, the “Ethel” of Cashl- ment, the “Wigwam” of Astoria, and a number of other boats whose names we are not able at this time to ascertain. Probably the race with the most entrie will be the handicap race which will admit boats from all these of the above classes. We have been very fortunate this year in securing the services of some very competent gas engine men to take charge of the handicap­ ping, and this undoubtedly will be one of the most interesting races held during the Regatta. We are giving more money this yeur lor the fish boats to be at the races than liefore and expect to make a special feature of thia class oi boats, both sailing and motor, anfl from the present indications then: will be a larger number of entries than ever beiore. One of the great features of tlife Regatta will be the swimming events which will be held in trout of the grandstand each day of the Regatta. In the afternoon Professor Cavillof Australia, one of the finest swimmers in the world, will have personal charge of these exhibitions. He will be assisted by some of the best swimmers on the Pacific Coast. He expects also to have his niece and nephew from Australia here to assist in the events, and it is under­ stood that they are children four and five years old, and the Pro­ fessor says that they will dive from a high ot 40 ft. into the river un­ assisted. Medals and cups will be awarded for the swimming events. U nder this head will come log •oiling, greased pole, tub racing and those other exhibitions which are so comical and help fill the time during the races. Music has been provided in abun­ dance, Professor McElroy’s Mili­ tary Band of 25 pieces will play dur­ ing the day and evenings. On Tuesday night, August 30th, will be held the big marine parade, which is an event of unusual inter­ est, consisting of probably 100 boats illuminuted with electric lights and Chinese lanterns, dis­ charging fireworks and parading up and down the harbor. Liberal prizes will tie paid for the best dec orated crafts in this parade. Fire­ works will lie furnished by the com­ mittee for the different boats. Admiral Robinson has selected his staff, which consists of many prominent men all over the state, as well as some from Washington and California. Tney will come from Portland to Astoria in a spec­ ial boat provided for their benefit. The Committee this year are giv­ ing away in cash prizes alone, the sum of $5000.00 for the water events, which will insure a large number of entries in every class of racing craft. The Portland Motor Boat Club are making arrangements to attend in a body, coming from Portland with their entire fleet. They will be met at Rainier by the Astoria Motor Boat Club and conducted to the city. The Oregon Yacht Club are also making extensive plans for attend­ ing the Regatta. It is impossible to ascertain at the present time, how many of their sailing boats will be present. Another feature that is attracting wide interest will be the Dinghy Club from Portland, which consists of a class of very small sail boats, and there has been keen rivalry in their club this season over races held on the Willamette River and all are anxious to try conclusions at Astoria during the Regatta. Sizing the situation up at the present time, we think there is no doubt that this will be by far the biggest boat racing event ever held on the Pacific Coast. Nearly all of the motor boats clubs from Van­ couver, B. C. to San Francisco will have members in attendance. Esopus, N. Y., after a long subsi­ dence since 19)4, comes to the front now as the site of a bungalow col- < r.y. And It looks better in that guise than when it was presented to us as the home of a candidate for the presidency. A druggist has committed suicide because a woman who had prom­ ised to marry him insisted on first finding out whether she would be committing bigamy. To tnary the second first, and be divorced from the first second, ought to be easy nowadays. The Standard Oil Company has asked to have its taxes raised in Chicago. This is the highest sign of a genuine philanthr y Mr. Rock­ fellow has yet given. In some quarters it may be taken as a sign of something worse. A magazine writer in New York pleads that his receipts have fallen off so much since Mr. Roosevelt went out of office that he is no longer able to pay alimony to a divorced wife. There are minds in which this plea will be taken as the shad­ ow of a third term. The young women in Alton who sued a dairy company for damages because of poison in ice cream sold to her has been awarded a judg­ ment in an appelate court. Nature is not so natural in Alton, in spite of faking, that people there will not tolerate food adulterations. The effort of the Esperanto tongue to swallow the English language is likely to end in the English lang­ uage swallowing the Esi«eranto tongue. The Independent Church Saloons. vs. The Independent Church believes in the liberty and right of choice of the youuger son who took his por­ tion and spent it in rietous living. The saloon is for the man in that stage of life. The Independent Church is for the same man when he coinee to hid senses. A man is never a man so long as he is in restraint. I would much rather go to hell on my own free will than be forced into heaven. Anything that interferes with the right of choice is more injurious to the church than the saloon. The saloon was never intended for a place of morals, where men of vir­ tue and sobriety congregate. I believe that the church is more at fault than the saloon for not having a better place than the saloon. The Independent Church is for men who aim to do right, because it is right as a matter of choice. The question is what is right lias to be settled by one’s own self. One man believes it right to be a total abstainer, another believe that the use of wine, beer and liquor of ail kinds are well within bounds of right. Men are not con­ stituted alike, and what one man may do with perfect impunity will destroy another. Every man should have a home of his own, where he could have a stock of wines and liquors that are pure and aged and fit to drink. I have never known a drunkard to lay in a supply, he is invariably out of anything to drink, yet they’ will spend from 10 to 50 times as much for drink as the man who provides for a year in advance. If a man undertakes to build a house he must first consider what it costs. It costs to drink and no one is better acquainted with the fact than the man who drinks over the bar. I consider the prohibition movement a greater foe to the free will worship of God than the saloon. A man must be left alone before he can decide for himself which course I he is going to pursue. A man does not remain on this earth very long. He is under his parental restraint until he becomes of age, when he assumes the re­ sponsibility of manhood the years ily until he is no longer a man. He beccmes old and decriped, and is only fit for the child life, his vigor and strength is short lived, the best that this earth yields is ndne too good. Judges ix., 13. —"Wine which cheereth God and man.” The sum of it is, are you on the road to hell or heaven ? If to hell, leave the saloon have its own way. It will afford some sensation anil amusements. If to heaven a good gl-ss of wine will cheer you in your own home. J. 0. G ove . Why James Lee Got Well.
