DAILY CAPITAL JOUBNAI SALEM, OBEQON, FRIDAY, XKCEfflBEE 9, 1911 2-aOB THHE3, EFFECTS OF THE PANKHURST POLICY XY. EEV. CHARLES F. AKED, D. D. It iB eminently desirable that friends of woman suffrage throughout the United Slates should note the effects of the Pankhurst policy in Great -Britain. The evil fruit of that evil policy be comes more apparent every day. And the more deeply one deplores the ruin brought to the suffrage cause in Eng 3and, the more resentful one grows of the imbecilities and brutalities of the Asquith cabinet through which the mil itants have allowed themselves to be driven into crime. If two wrongs made one right, there "would be an end of the discussion from "the standing ground of ethics. If it were right and wise to "set "wrong to balance wrong, and physic woe with woe," there need be no de Tiate as to the moralities of the situa tion. If the impact of one crime upon an other crime produced virtue, we might acquit Mrs. Pankhurst and her fol lowers of guilt. Even if the later and lesser crimes of "the militants could be excused by the initial and greater and continuous crimes of the government, they might stand free from moral blame. But it is not so. Wrong is wrong. Arson is a mean and odious crime. It is not mean er nor more odious than the crimes of the government against ithe women. But the head-on collision of two homi cidal machines will not produce sanity and the peaceable fruits of righteous ness. The crimes of the militants are as the crimes of the McNamaras. With torch and dynamite bomb they steal upon a victim as innocent as the first person who reads these lines. Their spirit and their method are those of the midnight assassin who dynamites 5n the cause of "labor." And they are "heroines" to those who find their "heroes" in dynamiters and murder ers. Here is a discovery by the police of Preston, a big manufacturing town in Xancashire. "The bundle comprised a "woman's coat, a rope ladder, a pair of goloshes, a pair of slippers, a cloth bag, a pair of gloves, a tin containing about a gallon of inflammable liquid, three lamps containing candles, four dozen packets of fire lighters, 10 largo pieces of cotton wool and a knitted blue cap." The objective of the thwarted incen laries is believed to have been large timber stacks at the docks. Success "would have meant one of the biffcest fires has ever known. The spirit of violence is more violent ' than ever. Hammers are thrown at the head of a judge in open court. A dead cat is TiHTlcd at the secretary of state for Ireland when he appears upon a public platform. The police, when they seek to make an arrest, are fought so fierce ly that thoy have to fight in return or admit defeat and lose their prisoner. They are working men, living on a weekly wage. Thoy must obey their orders or join the ranks of the unem ployed. What are they to dof They iight; heads are broken; lives are en dangered. In meeting after meeting Philip Snowdcn, the best suffragist man in England, is howled down by suffragist women. At Shoffiold he iB addressing a meeting called to protest against a conscription which threatenes Great Britain. The militant women are present in force. There are disgraceful .scenes as women fight with men. And the dreadful work goes on, The government of a great empire is help less to control the storm which its own inaptitude and cruelly did bo much to arouse. A shameful law derided as "The Cat and Mouse Act" is passed hy parliament at the bidding of the government. It is understood by mom bore that this is to take the place of the foul and filthy practice of forcible feeding; and many of them, loathing that practice, vote for the act in order to got rid of it. The women laugh at the Cat and blouse act, defy the home secretary to slo his best and his worst with it. The Right Honorable Reginald McKenna, secretary of Btate for home affairs, lord high torturer of Great Britain, brings bacK the brutality of forcible feeding from which parliament thought Eng land safely delivered. The women re double their efforts to burn and wreck and terrorize and destroy. Meanwhile, what of the effect on the cause of woman suffrage? For the time being it is ruined. And no man or woman sees one faintest ray of hope for action by the present house of com mons. The last meeting at which I spoke in London before coming to live in this country was a suffrage demon stration in Exeter hall. Mrs. Pank hurst was in the chair, Miss Christabel Pankhurst was one of the speakers. I had sat under the gallery in the house of commons for hours, following with bated breath the debate upon a woman suffrage bill.' The speaker al lowed it to be talked out. I made my way to the Dexter hall meeting dis couraged and sick at heart. Perhaps my speech showed too plainly the dis couragement. My friend, Koir Hardie, took upon himself to reproach me in his own big, brotherly fashion. He de clared that thiB temporary setback not withstanding, by dint of a little effort, the women would secure enfranchise ment during that sossion of parliament. This was more than six years and a half agol And tho women of Great Britain are immeasurably farther from victory than they were then. They' have had- victory snatched from their grasp by Mrs. Pankhurst and her fol lowers. ! The English newspapers contain a verbatim report of Lloyd George's re ply to a woman suffrage deputation in troduced to him at Swindon by a bril liant young friend of my own, one of the coming preachers of England. The chancellor's reply has deadly signifi cance. It is a pity the whole of it can not be printed in these columns. Here is an extract from it: "I am more of a woman's suffragist today than I have ever been. But it is no use denying facts. The one fact is that in a parliamentary sense the movement has gone back. In 1900 there was a huge majority in parliament for it. In the last two sessions we have been beaten, and you may depend upon it that in a movement like that parlia ment represents the temporary mood of the nation. 'Now, it is no use underestimating tho effect of militancy. Tho effect to has been enormous, but it has been to convert indifference into something like bitter hostility. I can seo it in my own constituency. Afow years ago there was a very considerable suffrage feeling; the majority of the'peoplo wore, I Bhould Bay, indifferent. But the eruption of militancy in Wales has outraged national sentiment. At our national festivals there is hostility now which never existed before against wo men 'g suffrage You will find that in evory part of the country. Now, what has happened in Ireland! In Ireland the militants have gone out of their way to create anti-suffrage foeling which never existed there before. They went to Dublin. So far as I can Bee, they tried to murder the Irish leader by flinging a hatchet at his head. They tried to break up a great nationalist meeting at Belfast. What is the result! Irish sentiment is against it, where be fore, on the whole, it was inclined to be friendly. It 1b no use denying these facts. For the moment they have cro- ated a situation which is the worst I have ever Been of woman 'a suffrage in I parliament."

SPORTS s Some Good Prices Paid For Recruits Who Have Been Trained on Long Branch Grounds. ABILITY AND WILLINGNESS TO WORK ANY POSITION Features Which Distinguish the Cuban Player From Average American, According to Sheridan. TINKER IS AFTER A conceited man la one who thinks ho isn 't BY HAL SHERIDAN (Written for the United Press) New York, Jan. 9. Having swelled up so often and allowed as how base ball is the Great American game it might be expected that something would come along and gently ease over the in timation that a few other nationalities in this broad universe are picking up batting, pitching and base running. Down Jersey way they have a team made up entirely of Cubans, and, wheth er you will believe it or not, it is on the rocords that the Long Branch team of Now Jersey-New York league won the pennant. The Long Branch aggregation happens to bo an all-Cuban cast, so there you be. We are all more or less acquainted with one Sonor Marsans, outfielder for the Cincinnati Reds, who is one of the leading exponents of the game as it ' is did in Cuba and Cincinnati. Long Branch, however, is an indubator for Cuban baseball players for this coun try. ' Four members of this team were sold to Boston last fall. Next year there will be a new crop for the major league scouts to look over. Manez. a pitcher, who will perform during the, next heated period is said to be a ring dingor. The Long Branch management has already been offered $3,000 for him, but tho offer was refused. After dangling before the eyes of the Majors for a few months next year more money will probably be offered. Goes After Recruits Annually. Dick Honriqucz, captain and manager of the Long Branch team goes, to Cuba every winter now. He looks 'em over on tho island while Long Branch is closed up and the summer rcsorters are hugging the radiators. The n he bobs up in tho spring with a new bunch of Senors who wallop the pill all over tho lot. Next year Henriquez expects to arrange a series of pro-season gameB with several of tho major leagues. His Cubans will report from the island ready for business as they will have done their "spring training" around Havana. Fifteen now players are to bo brought up from Cuba next spring, which angors much business of looking things over by tho big league scouts. Ono thing about these Cuban players that is not found in the average Ameri can of the league teams is ability and willingness to play several different positions. During tho last season ten men, including pitchers and catchers on the Long Branch team played every game of tho 120 in the league schedule. Thoy shifted around and played differ ent positions. When a pitcher was not working in the box ho would talto a place in the outfield. Long Branch won tho pennant by a margin of 22 games. This Long Branch team probably has the distinction of playing ball before more money than any other team in tho country considering the size of the crowds it draws. Ono day last summer fortunes estimated at $900,000,000 wore represented in tho boxes. Long Branch being a summer resort draws much mon ey. Tho Oiiggenhoims, Greonhuts, tho Tiradys and many other moneyed folk are Included among the fans who root for tho Cubans. Senator Smith, tho Fleishmanna and a scoro of othcni may also bo found pulling for the Long Branch bunch. Whether they try to pronounce the names of all of the play ers is not on record. JM1TED rni LRASKO wins. Oiiiagr, Jan. 9. Joe Tinker, mana ger of the Chicago Federal league club, yesterday afternoon declared he had beeu seeking the services of Walter Jonhsou, star twirler of the Washing- to American league club. Tinker ex hibited a telegram from Johnson in re sponse to one he had sent, in which Johnson said he was under contract with the Washington club and it was impossible for him to negotiate with Federals now. President Wecghan of the Chicago club he was prepared to offer Johnson at least $10,000 annually for three years and would give him a bonus of $10,000 for signing. DENIES YOUNG WAS KILLED BY BLOW IN PRIZE FIGHT UNITID PRESS L11IIBD WIBI. Los Angeles, Cal., Jan. 9. Bulldog jaws and a plentiful sprinkling of tin ears filled Superior Judge Craig's court room here yesterday whoa the taking of testimony began in the case of Jesse Willard and ton other de fendants charged with violating the stuto anti-prize fight law. Promoter McCnrty, who staged the Willard-Young bout that resulted fatal ly for Young and caused tho filing of the present charges, took the stand after tho chargo against him had been droppod, that tho state might call him as a witness. He described the fatal bout, his recital reaching a climax with the blow that brought victory to Wil lard. Harry Burns, of the McCarpy fight club, denied that tho match was a prize fight, stating that each principal was to receive a stated sum rogardless of the result. Dr. Bert Daly, formerly of the Phillies, has now been elected mayor of Bay- onne, N. J. New Haven promoters have put tho bars against heavyweights.' The Wil- lard-Rodol muss is the answer. Terry McGovem and his old rival Joe Bernstein are now doing a boxing act together in the variety theaters. Leach Cross believes that his victory over Bud Anderson entitles him to meet Willie Ritchie for the lightweight crown. Ray Bronson must be ready for the scrap heap when Holberg, the Danish lightweight, can defeat him in a 20 round bout. Carl Morris drew down something over $5,000 for threo months' engage ments in the ring last year. Nice money for appearing in tho ring. K. O. Brown has been forced to pass up several bouts on account of stomach trouble. He has offers to meet Ad Wol gast, Joe Mandot and Joe Azedo. Gilbert Gallant, the Chelsea . light weight, will make his first appearance in the West on January 16, when ha will mix with One-Round Hogan in Salt Lake City. Ladies! Try This!

Lut fence busriiig and bank bustii.if, t'icy should remember, are al together different things, In a rocent newspaper article Eddie Collins of the Athiolics paid tribute t'j Ty Cobb as foliowB; "Take it from one who knows, there ik only one Cobb, All tho rest uro imitations."

After another application or two your hair bocomes beuutifully dark, glossy, soft and lux uriant and you appoar years younger. Local Agent, J. C. Perry.
