ernment by judgment, or conviction,
but in government by fear. Their
stock in trade is terrorism. The coun
try is getting tired of such bolshe
vik methods, no matter who employs
them; getting tired of surrendering
to threats by groups, elements and
classes. It is because, partly, of con
tinual yielding to such coercion, that
the country finds itself in the pres

Congress, cooked up, as the people be
lieve, by administration politicians,
must fail. The administration has
control of railway rates and wages;
it has given us an unforgettable ex

cialism; let it meet the issue it has
created without trying to run away
from it or throw responsibility over
on Congress. And let Congress adopt
a new declaration of independence
of executive domination.

Governor Olcott’s refusal to call an
extra session last week, on the
ground that legislators had not put
their letters to him concerning the
extra session in the form of a request
has aroused the dormant suffrage
sentiment of the State of Oregon.
Indignation meetings speedily follow
ed in Portland and in other cities,
with the result that both men and I
women are letting Governor Olcott
hear of the sentiment of the state.
Mrs. Adah Wallace Unruh, one of
the best known legislative workers of
the W. C. T. U., is talking ratifica
tion as she tours the state for the
nursery shelter plan; Oregon’s wom
an legislator, Mrs. Alexander Thom
pson, is talking and writing “evtra
session;” the two Oregon suffrage
association®, the Woman’s party ano
the Woman Suffrage Association, are
both working.
War-workers ana
club women in all section.', of the
state are rallying to the front.
“At first,” said Mrs. W. J. Hawk
ins, Woman’s Party state chairman,
"we concentrated on legislators be
cause the governor wanted to hear
from them. There is no opposition to pj
the session among Oregon members,
except a few who live at great dis-
dance from Salem; a number of law
makers actively entered into .he
campaign to help us. When the Gov
ernor discounted r.o many letters
from the members of both houses, we
took the matter to the women of the
state. The response has been niag-
nificent. Woman members of organ-
ized labor are writing to the gover-
nor; business women’s associations,
club women, home i women. It is a
cause that cannot be ignored. East-
ern women made i the campaign for
the vote in Oregon possible. We older
workers remember that. To work for
immediate ratification here to help
the still disfranchised women of the
east, is the least Oregon can do.
“Besides, why should a great pro
gressive syrte like Oregon be last in
ratifying? We don’t want our state
to be among the tail-enders.”
