IN BAD CONDITION
CATTLE IN CALIFORNIA QTJAB
BANTINE SECTION STARV
ING ON ACCOUNT
OF DROUGHT.
Governor Pardee Appeals to Oregon for
Permission to Ship Cattle Into This
State Cattle Are Disease Infected
And There Is a Question of Advisa
bility, i
; According to ilispatches received at
the state's executive department yeB
tenlay humlrcls of cattle quarantined
in the northern part of California on
account of an infection, are starving by
reason of the drought in that section,
and- an appeal i made to Governor
Chamberlain to permit of these cattle,
Ftich as are not known or believed to
be infested with disease, to be shipped
into this state in order that they may
subsists.
Governor Chamberlain yesterday re
ceived a dispatch from Governor Par
dee of California, setting forth the ex
treme conditions with which the stock
is confronted and asking him if, upon
a certificate from the Federal author
ities, he-wonld allow some of these suf"
fering animals into the state. Late
last evening the Governor's ofSce was
in receipt of a telegram from Secretary
Jaroes Wilson, of the Department of
Agriculture, the text of which follows:
"It is represented bvjhe governor
of California that the Wittle in the
quarantines! section are ; starving on
actouut of drought. He desires that
permission be granted to ship some of
these cattle into your state. This de
partment would inspect and do every
tmng possible to exclude infected ani
mals, but could not guarantee freedom
from infection '' without dipping. It
would be necessary for the proper of
ficers of your state to: keep such ani
mals under supervision andr prevent
their leaving your, state for ninety days
after arrival. Are you willing to re
ceive them? Please wire answer."- ,
Since receiving the-dispatch from
Governor Pardee .yesterday. Governor
Chamberlain, who is now in Portland,
and to whom the dispatch from Secre
tary Wilson was forwarded last night,
has had the matter under serious con
sideration and has not as yet deter
mined what he will do in the premise
or as to whether he is cmpowerod un
der the law to extend to the state of
California the relief prayed for. The
Governor is in communication with th?
State Vetinary Snrgeon Win. McLane,
and between tiie two it is expected
that a definite conclusion will be reach
ed as sMn as possible, owing to the
apparent necessity of prompt action in
the matter.
The, Oregon laws governing the do
mestic animal industries and prescrib
ing the manner of coping with any In
fection or contagious disease which
may arise among the ' stock, are very
strict in their provisions and it is a
question of. whether tho Governor
would have authority to have disea3
infected stock to be shipped into the
state. Section 4287 of B. & C.'s .Co nip.
session laws of 18S1, is very plain in
the provisions regarding the shipment
of stock into the state from other
states, especially pertaining to the reg
ulation of railroad, steniloat or other
traffic, and concludes with "by consent
of the Governor the commission (state
slock) can prohibit, said companies, tx
individual owners of railroads, tdeam
boats. ships and all other conveyances
from bringing domeatiee animals into
the state contrarv to the regulations of
he commission."
There i also a section ( I2GD) which
provides the manner in which diseased
sheep may r le bronght into the state,
which can be only upon a thorongh in
spection and permission of the stock
inspector of the county into which it is
proposed to move the diseased stock,
but in this case .there has been no Jaw
found to cover the case and there secma
to be a grave donbt as to the Gover
nor's right to admit the 'stock. '
"Should it Im done,! however, it will

the stock should be taken, and tor tse

Tee Boy of Excellent Antecedents
Again to the Front.
(Editor Statesman: - . , .
j . I notice that Mrs. Duniway has again
'ventured into print in defense of her
1 1 , i - T . . t . 1 3 . . 0
boodj. a am surprisea Mil lauj w
Mrs. Dani way's age, talents and accom
plishments should append her name to
the "nonsense" contained in the first
thirty-eight lines of her letter. Did I
say "nonsense f" Yes; that is what
te calls it herself, and she has named
it properly. ! After penning these thirty-eight
: lines she says, ' But nonsense
aside, Mr. Editor." Having called it
what it' really is, s reply from me to
that part of her letter will not be ex
pected, f t i-
A little further on. she ironically re
fers to men as the ' superior sex," sim
ply because they make the laws and en
force them. I lo not believe that men
belong to the, "superior sex.' I hold
that the bird which hatches out the
young is not. inferior to its mate who
gathers the food, fights off her enemies
and sings for her pleasure. Their call
ings are different, that's all there is to
it, but her part is as importanta as his.
If, beside hatching out the young ones,
however, she was to. attempt to do part
of his work I cannot see she would be
"emancipating" herself. Buthat is
just what our suffrage .women are at
tempting to do. Woman is the home
maker and j the home-keeper. Man is
the home-supporter and the home-protector.
It would be absurd to suppose
that she would gain anything by shar
ing his, labors in supporting and pro
tecting the home. She is no more ob
liged to do this than he has to be:ir
(if that were possible) and rear half
the children. Any doctrine, therefore,
which tries to reverse the role of the
two sexes must be a pernicious one. As
a lady writer ..well puts it: "She is
the world's edrieator; he is the world's
executive. Her work is quite as impor
tant as his, for it is the making and
moulding of public opinion while man's
work is to support and protect her as
she does this, and to give public opin
ion shape in that practical form which
we call government." And this is the
reason, why women who try to be men
are so , universally disliked by both
sexes. ?
Mrs. Duniway quotes from the Rev.
Dr. David Gregg in support of her
cause. Why she quotes from him is a
conundrum, for she is able to express
the same idea old and superficial as it
is in much clearer and better language
than he does. The quotation shows how
little the foetor -aa jstndied the ques
tion. It leads one to believ that if his
theology is not more logical and cor;
rect than his ideas of female suffrage
he ought to be unfrocked instanter. His
idea of suffrage consists oi the mere
act of women voting'on election day,
Tne voting part of a woman's business
under suffrage is a mere bagatelle
when compared with the field of duty
and tremendous consequences which
that act implies.- Because it is some
timen stated that no genuine mother
will forsake her . home duties to enter
the immoral arena of politics, the old
Divine concludes that this means that
some fellow must corrupt or insult
women, when they go to the polls. Th'it
ir about the extent of his knowledge
of the working of our political system.
As Mrs. Duniway has treated us to a
quotataion from D. Gregg. 1 will now
treat her to one from an editorial which
appeared some time ago in the Oregon
ian a paer powerfully edited by her
own brother:
"Tho Oregonian has always' main
tained that the introduction of women
into the everyday industrial or polit
ical life of men, would slowly and sure
ly desex the women. . . .The same dispo
sition to behave as badly as men was
exhibited at the oman s congress at
Chicago in 1894 and the Homestead riot
and during the horrors of the Commcne.
Women politically associated with men
do not make men letter or worse but
women become desexed, and imitate
the superficial infirmities of the strong
er sex." .
G. W. Willims oi Portlaml, writing
to the Oregonian on this question said:
"The reason I win vote against it
is because I lived for a number of years
in two states where woman suffrage
failed to reform, and the best men ami
women too, after trying the experiment
regret that it was ever granted."
Now to further ofset Dr. Gregg, I
will quots from a. distinguished lady
Mrs. Schuyler VanRensselaer a lady
who knows something atout what she
writes from actual exeprience a lady
who holds property in her own right,
who is conversant with Htlitical meth
ods in Wyoming and who has voted in
Colorado. ; In her letters to the Xcw
York World, now published in pamphlet
she says: - "
"We who conscientiously oflse its
granting believe that the majority of
Americans., women and men, are more
truly free today than it would be were
it granted, that they are less painfully
cheeked in the enjoj-ment of life and
liberty, und in the pursuit of happiness.
It is not in the name of the subjection
of our sex" that we demand that men
snail continue to do the work of govr
erning our country, themselves and oitr
selres.". .r."But"l do say that the ten
or of the jtropaganda rn favor of wom
an suffrage lias often done much, and ii
now doing very mnch, to injure them,
at least, among-our own sex. ' And 1
could say nothing more strongly ac
cusing those responsiwrf for this tenor
of exerting an evil influence.",
I regret very much to see Mrs. Dun
iway losing her temper and resorting to
railerya. mire sign of defeat. She re
fers to my letters as the "voporinga of
an anonymous ecribbler" and then in
sinuates that I have a native inclina
tion to insult women nothing of which
could be further from the truth.; And
then ah threatens to put ' "suea fel
low as I behind the bars should 1
attempt to insult them (the suffragists)
after they " are free!" Well, well,
what am I to. do I ; As it is likely to
be some littbrHime yet before they
"are free, I 'shall have time enough
to get out of the state. I may as well
Mell Mrs. Duniway that I mm very
quiet sort of a fellow, with aorae back
bone and with more than the average
nm's strength. . But, nevertheless, I
would hate to fall under the hatchet
f old Carrie Nation or any of the vin
dictive, old hair pullers who constitute
the majority of every raffrage eenven
tion. Between claws and hatchets 1
might be-hurt so I will le 'pYict.
Now the manner in which Mrs. Duni
way, treats the illustration I gave of
the danger of leaving" children alone
anti asieep airing iuc iubc ia4 r
ers would be attending caucuses or set- j
ting on juries, while their husbands
peeped through the keyhole to see how ,
' the verdict was going, I judge that she j

scenes like tne ones J. aescrioe wowu

eonld publicly declare that she would
rather see tne women oi ongua

1 a place among the "full fledged an-
gels ".-in Heaven when her time on
1 Ar4Ti .Knnl.l onl. ia rTcnared t sur
render anything for her hopeless hobby.
But I do not suppose shefcould be hap
py in Heaven, even if she should get
there, for Paul, the Apostle of the Gen
tiles who bad no especial love for the
strong-minded women,' but who often
gave them- some wholesome advice
would "be such an eye-sore to her that
even the elaborate eloquence of old Dr.
Gregg would not be sufficient to effect
a compromise between them.

From Thursday's Daily.)
Notes' on the Recent Meeting of the
Nation Udvestock Association.
Editor Statesman:
The recent meeting, of the National
Livestock Association and the National
Woolgrowers' Association, drawing to
them, as they did, representatives from
the National Woolen Manufacturers'
Association, and of the declared policy
of the present National administration,
was the greatest event of its kind that
has ever occurred in the Fnited
States.
This meeting of representatives of
great national interests, vital to all
the country once known as the Great
American Desert, was unconsciously a
great compfiment to those who met on
the banks 1 of the Willamette more
than sixty "years prior to it, at which
the first action had was intended to
protect the livestock interests then
just dawning on the western edge of
the supiosed desert, by encouraging
tho killing of carnivorous animals de
structive to those interests which have
since pioneered all other interests of
civilization west of the Mississippi
.river. The Oregon wolf meeting gave
birth to the twin interests of protec
tion to animal life that sustains the
fixed home and the human life the
fixed home nourishes. In the interval
between J 843 and 1904 the conflict be
tween the wild and the tame has been
going on incessantly in that wide ex
panse, always working out from the
fisst fixed,, homes by the diverse agen
cies used by civilization. v
Sometimes, indeed, the pioneers j of
these agencies h?ve to some extent
acted obstructive to the general inter
cstpas where ignorant cowboys for
equally ignorant sheep herders have
injured kindred grazing interests, sup
posing they could dominate all others
in a particular district. The most ser
ious impediments, however, have been
the withdrawal from use of large areas
of puldie, domain, in public, land states
and territory formed out of region al
ready mentioned, since 1822, as forest
reserves. , This was done in the first
place from praiseworthy motives
doubtless, but too often in ignorance
of the lack of value of the area with
drawn as forest lands; and of its value
to livestock interests for the less valu
able' wood land it ' contains, and to
which, for all- interests, it should con
tinue to contain.
Mr. Pinehot, chief of forestry, and
speaking for the President's commis
sion, took hold of the situation wisely
as well as boldly when he said: "We
are all agreed there have lieen mis
takes. All land should be used for Its
best purpose. All resources of the
forest reserves should be used so as to
make them ermanent. This has lieen
disregarded in the past. .While we use
everything; we should destroy nothing.
How are we going to determine what
is best? Let the dominant industry of
a. region be first considered. He
thought co-operation letween the gov
ernment officers and the people should
prevail. He favored an amicable un
derstanding. Local questions should
be decided on local grounds. A general
rule is inapplicable; individual cases
must be considered. There has Wen
mnch over-grazing; if it goes on they
will be alwolntely ruined. Actual resi
dents should be given preference in
the allotment of the range. Permits
of three tc five years instead of one
should be given for using the ranire.
Sheepmen should l given a definite.

but it is well to take a brief review of
the action of Mr. Pinehot 's predecessor
in office asa means of tracing! the
origin of the acknowledged mistake.
On Febnmry 5, JR97, B. E. Fernow,!
chief of forestry and chairman of the
executive committee of the (American
Forestry "Association, reported to that
body "that it (the committee) had
secured" the appointment of a, eomifiiti
tee of the National Academy of feci
ences by inducing the then Secretary
of the Interior (lion. Hoke Smith), to
ask the advice of that learned body as
to sfeps to be taken with referencc'td
the publie timber land; $2o,(XMi ( was
readily procured from Congress to pay
the expenses of this advisory commit
tee," and it waa not expected its rec
ommendations would be essentially of
strikingly different from those made
and advocated by the (forestry) ; assa;
ciation. It was hoped the weight of
the opinion of eminent men of the com
mittee s secured and the i. body from
which tho tunimittee was sheeted
being legal advisers t , the goverameni
in matters scientific would do much
to aronse more general public i at erest
aad to secure the ; Bsage of desired
legudatkn." la the same report the
committee 'mentions r that "it passed
and directol to Congress and the exec
utive, resolutions J protesting ; against
the modification of the (Cascade range
forest reserve, which rewlificatioa ' the
jVqJe of Oregon had petitioned for.','
Pages 3 and 4 of ! the rtfHirt of the
Oregon State Board of Horticulture oi
Foreetrv Interests, 1898. The latter
was the only public body in the United
States that attempted to prevent some
of the mistakes Mr. Pinchofe manfully i
says has been made, "VVp-- ':'
! The people of Oregon and of the en-
. I 1 A w m-Krr-m t 111 a-
tion an the difference two patriotic
citizens of New York last filling the
oiHce of President. Mistakes were rea
sonably to be expected from President
Cleveland in dealing; with condiitons
in distant portions of his own country
he eonld not be expected to know much
of. President Roosevelt has set an
example in respect to getting a per
sonal .knowledge of the different for
est conditions between the Atlantic
seaboard, the Pacific slope and the
Rocky Mountain states, as should give
satisfaction to i all citizens and make
his example a rule for the future selec
tion of candidates for the high office.
A mere politician is no longer large
enough for President of the United
States. :; Vj J -f .
But even the mistakes which we all
agree to have been made, have been of
great value to us as a ieople. The real
forest lands on ur side of the conti
nent have more than doubled value
within six years. The people oa the
Atlantic side are '.-being, educated to
the fact reforestation of their : over
cut wootllands that are unfit for higher
uses should be effected as soon as possi
ble; for lumber is bound to rise higher
as compared with other products of
the soil, and such of the forest; wealth
as the Atlantic side draws from the
Pacific side is bound to cost money.
True the railroad capital j is largely
Cast of the Alleghenys and there may
bo a struggle for the profits on lnmber
freights as there is now on livestock,
lumber-and woo!, but in these the cur
rents of commerce will change, as that
of breadstuffs and lumber is, changing,
toward Pacific commerce, so will
others. . :
i In the spirit of good will to care for
the natural forest growth f the Pa
cific side and reforestation 'on the At
lantic, it is worth while to learn the
feeling of all the public land states so
far as it, was expressed in the brief
speeches at the late conventions. Mr.
K. K. Nichols, of' Washington, paid:
"We look upon the present j reserve
law as an infringement of our liber
ties." The writer expressed the same
view as a citizen of Oregon six years
ago.. Hon. Douglas Belts, president of
Oregon W,0'rowe'"l, Association said:
"The allotment to sheepmen of the
forest reserve has proven satisfactory.
That LVsrtern Oregon favored a reserve
in the Blue Mountains," but read a
letter from a friend in Washington, D.
C.,' showing a 'circumlocution" office
there relative to forest reserves.,
i Hon. . E. S. Gosney claimed "the
largest continuous forest for Arizona,
and said itfi per cent ' of the reserves
were not on any watershed. That the
sheep and cattle men of Arizona Imv
lieve in.' the protection of their forests,
and that, it is only by grazing these
forests and their protection by stock
men . that -reforestation is enhanced.
More than 1,KK),00 acres of arid land
in Ariizona have been taken into the
forest reserves against the ailviee of
experts. Much of this too, was private
property. Many would not 'lwdieve
such abuses could be carried through
the Department of the Interior. Only
actual forest lands should be accepted.
The control should be placed in Wtter
hands, equipped to judge. The Depart
ment of Agriculture. Words "fitly spok
en. : -'
Ilori. Jesse Smith, president of the
Utah Woolgrowers' Association, was
next called on.. He said Jess than 1
per cent of Utah's population are agri
culturists, though they were largely
interested in livestocks Residents of
the desert are excluded from the moun
tain timber rcnge. The sheep industry
has suffered. He said if the forestry
icserve' law obtained much longer is.
Utah, there would be no sheep industry
to quarrel over. In the past the use of
these has leen wasteful. ; He favored
intelligent governmental control of re
serves. ,;Our sheep own the; best homes the
fruits of their industry, said Mr. Smith.
He was pleased to see so much una
nimity among the delegates on these
great questions of vital iuteresf.
R. !. Sel way, of Wyoming, denounc
ed the story that sheep in Northern
Wyoming polluted the water or that
they devastated the earth, as ierfeet
rjt. lie evidently cannot use suck
nice words to denounce false state
ments' or Ignorant assumption as did
tho high sounding committee secured
from the National Academy of Sciences
to advise lion. Hoke Smith and so led
President, Cleveland .to believe that he
was honoring Washington's birthday
by proclaiming thirteen forest re
serves on February 22, 1S97, without
reference to the Representatives or
Governors of the states interested- Mr.
Hagenbarth informally said: "We
must protect ourselves agaitt our
selves. When the forest reserve ques
tion came up we shotdd have bad onr
eyes open. We. did not, and now we
are up against it." Yes, and we are
upHed to be- 1,WMI,0W voters; but
that Very fact contain a caution to
ns;i to be careful. "We arc all agreed
that there have been mistakes," savs
Chief-" Fc.resier. Pinehot, speaking for
his commission. We, .on our side can
say we re all agreed our forest wealth
should be protected. The writer thinks
by both state Vand nation. No little
body lile theierican Forestry Asso
ciation should ever again be ermitted
by Ioagress to have its remonstrance
against a state honored by that lo.lr,
without a thorough examination bv a
committee of its appointment into 'the
subject matter of such remonstrance.
This is submitted in all good will to
the pitn-wes of the Ameru-an Forestry
Association. " :" u '

- Salem's Duty to the State Fair.
rMitor Statesman: . , ! .
Your read-era are advised that the
State Agricultural iSoald I has asked
the Greater Salem dab for rands to
assist in offering a special large pr
mium for a Halem Day race, and while
the Club has not exactly tairaed the
matter Mown, yet it has mad a sug
gestion to the rKird that; it will hard
ly accept not we think, from a ilisp
sition to turn it down, but from a lack
of funds. World it not be well for the
ep!e of Salem to consvicr . that onr
Stte Fair is an important matter to
Saleni; is be principal event of .the
yeir and the people of .Oregon now
have a good feeling tonari the Fair,
tin,,.. cfh-lctrislatnro to
give it a liberal support. ' Also that
tne interest in the Fair amongst be peo
ple of Oregon uas been Urgely. in
creased in the last five years and -Salem
!s financial support and co-opr-tion
with the Fair management Iia
been one of the principal elements
that have brought aoout these Tesults.
Would it not be well for our peo
ple to consider these things carefully
before we let our opportunity slip by!
We all wish for a successful 'Fair in
this year of 1904, and especially do
we want a big Fair in 19Q3. t the time
of the Lewis and i dark Exposition.
After J90o Portland will have all the
best buildings, ; attractive grounds, in
fact evervthing to make a most suc
cessful exhibit of the state's products,
except stable and pens, which can be
easily provided, and should Portland
see fiit to levy 1-3 of a mill on her tax
able property, it would make $SOO0 to
supplement the amount appropriated
by our legislature of $10,000.
I do not think there is a man In Sa
lem who has any doubts about Port
land being perfectly willing to do just
this thing. Now while we have things
coming eour -way woHld it not le lctter
for us to get a move on ourselves anl
make ! provision for at least 500 for
the Board f They will be satisfied wUh
that amount, and lcCusnot wait until
an agitation to move it is open us.
