rightful heritage is not, like theirs, for
sale?
We've got away with Jacksonville.
We've defied its eggs, its whisky, and
its thugs. We've left every ehaste
woman within its borders with her po-
liiical understanding quickened into ac-
tive thought. W've left every intelli-
gent woman sorrowing because she did
not dare, for fear OF her protectors, to
attend our closing lecture But we're
coming back again, good ladies'. The
earthquake has come among your law
makers, and it has come to stay. It's
eruptions will henceforth be periodical.
The rotten eggs with which your pro-
tectors were prepared to pelt you if you
ventured out that night will be con-
sumed before this time next year with
the glowing fires Of law and liberty.
We thank God and take courage.

"FEMALB LIOUoR-sBLLBRs.u .

The Standard raises pitiiul vail be-
cause some degraded women are "openly
selling liquors without having been
compelled TO pay anything for the priv
ilege, or without any fear Of arrest from
our blind police The occasion for the
wall is that "there are respectable men
in the saloon business in Portland who
have to pay their licenses with clock
work regularity" If the degraded
women can be raised to a standard Of re-
spectabiliiy by the purchase Of parch-
ment allowing them to deal out liquid
damnation with the full sanction and
protection Of the law, the certificate Of
respectability is cheap. Perhaps the
Standard can be able to divine from its
notice that "the women who preside
over low dives" are granted more con-
sideration than those who adopt some
upright business. Fallen women al
ways get plenty Of consideration from
men, and are able TO exercise even more
than "equal rights" as the paragraph
alluded to will show, while their moral
and honorable sisters are denied privi-
/ leges, although taxed equally with theiI
brothers. In a certain sense, a premium
/ is set up for the degradation Of women
/ We hope in the course Of the years "a
chronicle that the Standard has discov.
cred that, when women have equal po
EiticaI privileges aud can command fail
salaries for services performed, thei
proud and refined natures will preven
them from following the saloon bust
ness, where exhibitions Of debaucher,
can shock and disgust them.
