AT its last session the Legislature Of
Michigan granted women the right to
vote in municipal elections. This Is
less than the women have for years
been asking for; and, besides, there is
coupled with the privilege an educa-
tional qualification that may be
thought invidious. Nevertheless, the
concession makes the sex political
factor which may easily acquire the
balance Of power in the State; and il
also shows that woman suffrage, once
deemed chimera, il STEADILY becom-

The Rescue club met at o'clock
last evening, President w. I. Crawford
in the chair Rev. r. b. Dilworth reac
from the scripture and led in prayer.
The program, prepared and gener'
ously given by the ladies of the AS
toria Woman's Christian Temperance
Union, was as follows:
Recitation, 1.-THE two Fires" Miss
Susie Roberts. Two minute addresses
by the following named gentlemen
who were required to chose subject
at random from hat containing writ
ten slips; and expend his two minutes
upon 1t as seemed to him best
G. M. Huxford, subject: "What Is
the Greatest Question for Settlement
by the People of the United States.''
Mr.. Huxford said the answer to this
is most emphatically Temperance, !"
and took his seat again amid asserting
applause.
r. B. Dilworth: "Who Were Jobs
Ancestors" Mr.. Dilworth evaded the
responsibility of answering this mo-
mentous question in a few mastery
sentences until checked by that fatal
word "time."
DR.. Estes in answer to "Give Your
Opinion of tthe New High Toned Gov
ernment Saloons" said he admired
them above everything, would like to
see one in every available public build
ing and, in fact where ever our boys
and young men can best be reached by
them lest any of them should grow up
unenslaved by the drink habit.
C. A. Hanson on discovering his sub
ject to be "Crinoline" gave his an
swer in a series of pantomimic atti-
tudes expressive of apprehension, rid
icule, dislike, disgust, aversion, culmin-
ating in terror.

thusiastic applause.
Twelve persons signed the pledge.

The case of state of Oregon VS.. r.
Carruthers came up for trial yesterday
morning. The state was represented
by Prosecuting Attorney Barrett as
sisted by F. D. Winton, and the de-
fendent by Fulton Brothers. The fol-
lowing jury were sworn; j. Harlan, J.
c. Pope, A. Leberman, John Boberg,
Max Young, H. Spellmeier, G.. Oerk-
witz, Otto Peterson, E. c. Heacock, c.
S. Dow. A " Allen, and w. T. Bever-
idge. The court decided early in the
case that the county commissioners
could appoint one of their number to
superintend any piece of county, work
they saw fit, and pay him a reasonable
compensation, but decided to allow the
trial to proceed as to the question of
charging for more work than he had
performed. This ruling was objected
to by the defendent's counsel. The
trial proceeded, and after examining
several witnesses, the court decided
that the indictment was in some re-
spects defective, and he would there
fore dismiss this case and refer the in
dictment to the next grand jury.
The second Indictment was dismissed.
