Toast and Tea Party.

The attendance last evening at Ma
sonic Hall was not as large as we had
reason to anticipate, in consequence OF
the inclemency of the weather, and the
counter attractions. However, the at
tendance was quite fair, and the pro-
gramme fully up to the public expecta-
ton in respect to the character and the
manner of reditiOn. The exercises COM
menced promptly at S o'clock. The
first exercise on the programme was
piano solo, charmingly rendered by Miss
Carrie Dalton. The song and chorus,
''There was an old lady, and she lived
over the sea-" was sung by aye Ancient
People, consisting of number of ladies
and gentlemen, attired in the unique
costumes Of the average New Englander
q century ago. This was followed by an
original poem entitled "a Hundred
Years Ago. read by Master Willis
Duniway. Father Harmon next IA
vored the audience with q solo, "Revo-
lutionary Volunteer" " dressed in suitable
costume. Mrs. a. J. Duniway then
read an interesting and appropriate
"Open letter to the Boston Common
wealth." from the pen Of Mrs. F. F.
Victor The Beautiful SnOw'' came
next on the programme but the person
who was to reeite it not being present,
''cneGludUlS hlue was substituted,
which was recited by Mr.. H Breeden.
DR.. J. 3. PilkingtOn next read that
beautiful poem from the pen of Will
Carleton, "Out of the Old House into
the New An "Old Balladr was sung
by Miss Peters (Ye Ancient Belle in cos
tune, which Occasioned no little merri-
ment. Miss Clara Duniway Modern
Belle sang very effectively a New
! Ballad" which won for the young lady
an encore. Thomas Hoods beautiful
poem, "The Bridge of Sighs," was fault
lessly, we might say exquisitely, re-
cited by Mrs. d. f. Smith. Miss Carrie
Dalton recited with good elocutionary
effect, and in a clear tone of voice,
| Montgomery's "ArnOld Winkelried,n
which elected rounds of applause. The
next which followed was a colloquy,
rendered by Young America, repre-
sented by Julius Thielsen, Brother jon
athan, by Frank Owen, and Aunt Co
/ lumbia, personated by Miss Julia Bod
/ ley. The concluding exercises of the ev-
ening consisted of the old familiar air,
America" after which the audience
was dismissed.
A long table extended through the
/ hall, covered with a bOuntiful supply of
edibles, to which all were invited to
partake. Many of the audience re-
mained to supper.-OregOHidH.

A SIGN nF THE TIMES.

Jas. O'AIeara, formerly one OF the
most radical opponents to the Woman
Movement, is out with a late letter from
Washington City to the Bulletin which
contains the following significant par
agraph: ave have had an enthusias-
tic Woman Suffrage Convention here.
b. +. Butler presented to-day in the
House a bill TO strike the word male
from the fundamental act establishing
this District Government. He ex-
presses his intention to press this mat
ter of sex, which means work, coming
from the persevering Ben. We note
the appearance of women here from the
various States, opposing any action TO
deprive their sisters in Utah Of the right
to vote. The increased Difference paid
to woman delegates here is noticeable,
and they express themelves as quite de-
lighted with the present situation and
future prospects OF the cause"

CONSIDER THE SOURCE.

A blind and deaf and idiotic reporter
on the Eueniag Nelps, Governor Growers
litlgsnt organ in this city, which we
sometimes notice little just to crafty
its vanity, concluded to play smart over
the fact that, owing to heavy storm,
the attendance on the first evening of
the Centennial entertainment was
smaller than 1t ought to have been, and
so, 10 crafty a spleen that has been
Frost-6itteR ever since his pet of the
frosty name and ardent nature so graft
fed his repotorial Imagination some
two years ago, he concocted rigmarole
OF silly lies while the entertainment was
progressing, which very materially
damaged its financial interests for the
second evening. Had the people for
one moment realized the straits TO
winch newspaper must be driven when
IL employs such a monstrosity of ply
siqus and mind and manner as poor

would have affected nobody; but the pa
per came out Just as they were prepar-
ing 10 go out to the various places of
amusement, and the criticism being
read without realizing who was its au-
thor, kept many from attending, and
made, some of the performers i'll.
Il Is very easy for men and women
whose talents are of the high order pos
sessed by our kind friends who furn-
ished so much good intellectual food foI
the Tea-Party to give first class enter,
tainment, but it is not possible for them
to furnish Daily with eyes, ears ol
brains with which to appreciate it.
When travelling minstrels or anti
Woman Suffrage lecturers come along
who are known to be disreputsble in
character, this pure-minded mortal see

performances. Ii is only when men anC

The present position Of woman is an
anomaly. In some of the States she can
be elected TO certain offices, but not to
others. Her name can be on the ticket
and she can be voted for, but she can
not vote. A woman can not vote for a
woman, but she can be voted for by men.
In some States she may hold an Office if
she receives it by appointment, but, if it
is to come through election, as the
voice of the people, it is an offense to the
people, and unsexes her; and in fact she
is pronounced incompetent and unified
for it. And in States where she may be
elected to certain offices, should she ven
ture to throw q ballot, she Is liable to
arrest and imprisonment.

Woman Suffrage and Temperance---A
Mathematical Demonstration.

MESsRS. EDITORs:-In- last weeks
AdCcrtiser your correspondent from
Rockport wrote, under the head of Pub
Lic Institute. that "some discussion oc-
CURED on Woman Suffrage as a cure for
intemperance, some thinking that right
acting was as much needed as right vot-
ing, and that il was not so much more
votes that were needed as better ones"
What the others thought is not stated;
allow me, therefore, to mention what
think.
Surely better votes are needed, and
this is one reason why we urge Woman
Suffrage. We believe that more votes
will result in better ones. To demon
strate:
Statistics show that fifty per cent. of
the men in the country use intoxicating
drinks, while of the women only two
and half per cent. use them. The men
only having the ballot, there is q con-
stant battle between rum and temper
anee. Temperance will not achieve q
victory until we have more and better.
votes. How can we have this result in
the quickest aud best possible way?
surely not by trying to make temper
ance men-we have tried that n lone
time-but by allowing women TO use
their God-given rights.
We estimate that there are one tbous-
and men voters in this town, and also
one thousand women who should he AL
lowed to vote. Temperance women
viii vote the temperance ticket. Here
then, is the result:
Iemperance-5O0 votes by men. e75
votes by women; l475 total Temperance
votes
Rum-500 votes by men, p votes by
women; 525 total rum votes.
Majority for temperance, 975 votes
almost equal to the total number of
voters at present.
This shows that while Woman Suf-
frage will give more votes, that it will also
give better ones. To make this nation
a temperance one, let temperance men
labor that women may be allowed 10
use their natural right-the ballot.
The estimate that we use in regard to
this town, your readers can apply To
their own town, the state and the nation.

THE TOAST AND TEA PARTY.

Socially, the entertainment given ON
Friday and Saturday evenings, to COM
memorate the Centennial of the BOSTON
Tea Party, was u most decided success
The different participants acquitted
themselves with great credit, and the
whole performance was well received bv
the audience and well noticed by the de-
cent and reliable portion of the press.
The principal actors in the entertain
ment were gentlemen and ladies of abiI-
ity and culture, who are well known and
well appreciated by the Portland public
AS We prefer 10 allow the newspapers 10
tell their own story, we publish from
the dailies the notices given during its
progress. But we regret to say that fl
naneially the entertainment was a fail
ure, and the editor of this paper was a
heavy loser. Had we followed our own
Judgment and published the meeting
as a benefit of the NEW NORTHWEST,
giving the names of those who were TO
take part, rs well as the characters they
were to assume, our friends now believe
that the people, fully understanding the
object of the entertainment, would have
rallied fully to its support. But that is
past. Better financial luck next time.
Many of the citizens of Portland evil

events connected Herewith.

who was present rs reporter for the little
Nc,rs, anything was said to wound the
sensitiveness Of any of them.
We are very glad the party was given,
as it proves that we have many friends
among the brain power of Portland with
whom we were not before acquainted
To these dear friends our heart goes out
in grateful remembrance, and when
in the near future, the great principle:
of human freedom for which we are sc
earnestly striving shall have become
established, and the struggle to attain il
have become, like the original Bostor

We are informed by the Secretary of
the State Woman Suffrage Association
that she is in RECEIPT of many letters
from prominent gentlemen, who ex-
press their hearty sympathies with the
objects of the coming Convention, and a
number of them have promised to at
tend and address the meeting. Dele
gates are being elected from various
parts Of the State, and we look for a rous-
ing meeting. We also expect the Wash
ihgton Territory Society to be well rep
resented. Have not yet heard from
California, but have no doubt but we
shall before the Convention meets.
