LETTER FROM SALEM.

To THE EDITOR OF TIE NEW NOTHwEsT:
As it has been my fortune to be iden-
titled with the question of Woman Suf-
frage in Oregon, and living in hopes
to see the day when equal rights shall
sit enthroned upon our statue books, I

cause; and whenever 1 have seen an
article published in your paper, ealcu-
lated in my opinion to injure the cause,
or strike blow at any of its brave de-
Tenders, have felt aggrieved, and /
must confess that | was astonished
when the NEW NORTHWEST published
a certain communication, purpOrting to

not only noble advocate of the enfran-
ehisement of women, but is a self-sacri-
ficing laborer i'm the cause Of fallen hu-

themes, marks progress which would
amaze us had it not been made by steady

The invariabe effect of criticism was to stir

The UniOn's dispatch from Prescott

Prescott road. 1t is reported that the
Greenwood mine of Messrs. Pierce &

Senator John 7. Jones Eof Nevada, for
