THANKSGIVING DAY.

To-day is Thanksgiving. We hope the women
of Oregon will earnestly observe it. For years its
celebration by them has seemed mockerv; they
were enslaved by all sorts Of despotic legislation.
Now It's observance is a reality; they are III
shackled of many Of their legal chains, and the
prospects fair for the removal of the last band
shat fetters them as individuals and as citizens
They now the equals of men before the laws so
Glr as property rights are concerned. They lack
only the means to enforce these laws or the power
to prevent legislatures from repeating them; and
they are rapidly moving toward the requirement
OF the ballot, which is theirs a. a natural right
and which VIII enable them To hold all that has
been gained during the year that is just gone
Yes, women Of Oregon, rejoice and be grateful.
You have labored long and earnestly for freedom
and at last that your work is bearing fruit
Render thanks to the God of Love and Justice:
znd the NEW NORTHWEST, which has battled for
and with you during decade, will join you in a
pecan of praise.

NOT \ FOCAL QUESTION"

There Is nothing more nousen~cal than the oc-
easiOnai attempt oi some town council To ">olve
the Chinese problem" The members of the GOV
erning board are like so many Hancocks dealing
with the tariff They regard a subject of National
importance. and which can only be properly
3ealt with 10y the Nations representatives. a- a
purely local question" They make themselves
ridiculous, and accomplish nothing, unlcs, il Is
to confirm The belief of Eastern people that our
opposition 10 the Chinese is caused by an unrea-
soning hatred of the yellow race. When residents
Of the East read statement to the effect that
Chinese washermen in Albany are to be charged =
per month for the privilege of cleaning dirty
dnen and that the tax is imposed TO drive them
from the city, they must OF necessity think that
the rights of the mongols a guaranteed by the
Burlngame treaty. are being infringed. They
vil beopposed to this class legislation and set the
people Of this section down as bigoted bulido,ers
They viii think that such petty persecution can
only result from malignant prejudice and that the
people might control their passions until we learn
the measure Of success attending the negotiation,
Of the Commission to China. They cannot under
stand the situation as we do, not having had the
chances of observation which we unfortunately
possess, and will smile when they learn that
the Chinese have refused to pay the tax, that the
inhabitants are put to considerable trouble to get
their washing done, and that the coolies will
probably be the victors in the squabble. We hope
the councimen will learn lesson from this little
fight Remembrance of the homely adage, zone
man can lead horse to water, but "A dozen can't
make him drink" would have prevented them
from doing very foolish thing. The Commits
sion to China is at work, and the petty persecution
Of mongos on this coast will help to create a SEN
srnent in the East against the abrogation or mod
1cation of the treaty. If the celestas are guilty
of nothing but washing, they should be let alone
Certainly clean clothes will not do any damage
The town councilmen might stop the vices so
numerous in the Chinese quarters, and in 70 doing
would help the cause they are now retardng
They certainly have power to act in this direction
without infringing on any of the guaranteed
fights of the Chinese.

The ieaven Of equality is working in Jackson
vile even, if we may judge by the following,
from tine S0'tiocl under the head Of Universal
suffrage: "Lucretia Mott, one Of the earliest of
American champions Of Woman Suffrage, died
Nov. u, 1880, at her residence near Philadelphia
IN the o7th year Of her age She was one of the
most earnest well as the mos. gifted Of Ameri-
cam women. Upward Of fifty years ago she pre-
,Iictci that the time would come when the free
s4ilot would be given to the intelligent women of
shs country She died without seeing her
prophecy fulfilled but her spirit is moving on in
the direction of the acknowledgements of the moth
ers, wives, daughters and sisters of the Model

The members Of the Common Council Of Albany
if unwise in theirmethod of attack on the Chinese
have certainly made discreet movement against
the whisly-sellerS. They have passed an ordi-
nance making it their duty "to declare an inebri-
ate a common drunkard, upon the petition of five
or more citizens, after which any person who
gives or sells Intoxicating liquors to such person
shall be subject to fine OF not less than $50 nor
more than so" This action is mainly attribut-
able to the strong public sentiment as reflected by
the various temperance organizations of Albany
1t gives the family and friends of a drinking man
the power to protect him, to considerable ex-
tent, from his vitiated appetite and the greed of
avaricious saloon-keepers. If the temperance
and moral sentiment Of the citizens is strong
enough to enforce the ordinance in spirit and let
ter, the liquor traffic will be pretty well eurtailed
and controlled i'm Albany

\ POINTED SATIRE.

The san Francisco G,roHiclc has published a
cutting satire on the commonplace Collections
against Woman Suffrage made ly the Hlita-ata
and the unreasoning, and the BUIefin copies il.
The Gtro0icic has said many good word for the
rights of women, and any one who is familiar with
the class and standing of women who COMPRISE the
great body Of sutifagists and support the suffrage
newspapers will appreciate the force of its "obec-
ions." Its article ignores all consideration Of the
right and Justice of Woman Suffrage a. do all on
ponents but cries out that 'the babies will be nm
cared for that bribery and corruption will be
immeasurably increased" that a law will he
passed making it "felony to remain unmarried
after thirty, that it will be made "penaI ofr,nse
for married man to stay away from home after
dark" that "the married ladies will surely 90
after the single lirts with the sharp stick Of the
law and that other direful results will FOLLOW
Then, to cap the climax Of these reasons for
Withholding the ballot from woman. it claims
that, while this wholesale law-making is goino
on, not over one-tenth of the women will vote
This last is the sharpest cut Of the article. II
brings out all the absurdity of the collections Of
shallow speakers and writers, who i'm one breath
claim that women don't want TO be concerned in
politics and in the next that they would pass all
manner Of deleterious and absurd laws
The second meeting of the Grant County
Woman Suffrage Association was held at Canyon
City last Thursday in the Methodist Church The
Ne5ns says Rev Mr.. Wilcox was invited 10 adj
dress the Association, which ne did i'm an able and
eloquent manner and the President, Mrs. Kuhl
rendered him the thanks of the Society. Major
Magone next spoke, endorsing the reverend gen
tleman's remarks, and expressing the regret that
every woman in the city had not been present to
hear it. He urged the ladies present to encourage
their sisters and friends to come out and take
part in the meetings. The Society adjourned to
meet at O'Clock p. VI, November 30th, at the
same place.
