Organize in clubs all over the state; put
all the energy in one direction, till that
particular industry is developed, or we'll
under way, and then select another, and
see what can be done with that. Bv
such cooperative work the result in our
state industries would astonish you.
Mrs. Caudice Wheeler, the head of
decorative art in America, was the push
behind the silk industry, which has
assumed such mammouth proportions.
She has reached her four score years
and ten, but hopes to live long enough
to see the linen industry placed side by
side with the silk.
This industry has only 50 years of
factory life, and it really amounted to
very little, until after the war. Mrs.
Wheeler conferred with manufacturers.
experimental with weavers, and estab-
lished school of applied design for each
work. There are now 5S4 factories, en-
ploying 5000 hands. In the neighbor-
hood of Patterson, n. j., alone, there
are 81 factories manufacturing silks,
Is dye houses, 5 making silk braids,
silk spinning mill, IL silk throwing
firms, and "a firms engaged in building
silk machinery.
Mrs. Wheeler, in recent artile in
Harper's Bazaar, speaks encouragingly
of the possibilities of flax growing in
Oregon, and compliments the women of
the state their enterprise, and the
new departure they are making in re-
gard to developing the state resources,
which, as she declares, places them in
the front rank for enterprise and will be
an incentive to women in other states,
to work in similar lines S
Let us hope that the possibilities she
foreshadows may be fully realized, and
our beloved Oregon become center of
industrial activities, for the cultivation
and manufacture of flax, thus adding to
our material wealth, and the happiness
of our people.

WOMAN IN POLITICS.

Every woman has place in politics
each according to her taste and sur
roundings. Not one should shirk her
personal responsibility. If every lntelll-
gent woman in the United States, real
lied, and lived up to the fact that she
was in a measure responsible for the
political conditions of the country, there
would be a vast difference in the
methods of managing the ''machines'
of office seekers and wire pullers. Each
and every one can, and ought, in some
way, WELD an influence for good. Not
necessarily by goiug out on election day
to work for a favorite candidate. No,
No. Far back of that No real pOliti-
Glen waits for election days. THE hand
The mother must begin at the cradle.
Read, think and speak in her own home.
Let her sons and daughters grow up
with a correct understanding of the
needs of the day. What pure legislation
is, and how to be had. That only by
electing pure and capable men, can we
expect to gain the desired results.
If we read and think, wedono neces-
sarily have to talk politics on the street
corners, but when opportunity and oc-
casion demand, we are prepared with an
opinion and can express it. Many a
man is assisted in forming an opinion on
a political issue, by word spoken in
season by woman. (however, he is
usually unconscious of the fact)

of in politics, the writer knew lady

Many people are interested from the
novelty of women undertaking to estab-
lish a state industry. This is the age IN
which women are coming to the front as
workers. Why not undertake something
angible-sOmething that promises re-
suits that will benefit the community,
instead of selishly devoting all the time
to clubs, to self-culture?
To introduce new industry especially

Women not being engaged in business

not represent SO many dollars and cents,
and the daily bread and meat of the
family. The women should have a voice
in affairs benefting the community at

eastern city. Her home was directly on
the street in a very central location. On
the morning of election day She dressed
herself becomingly, and with a hand
full of tickets, stood on her lower front
door step all day and every man who
passed, she spoke to, in a quiet, pleasant
way, asking them to vote for her hus-
band if he could. The supposition was
that she was responsible, to quite an ex-
tent, for the large majority polled for
Charley Norton at that election. While
her action was much talked of, no harsh
criticisms were made. Why should any
wife, mother or sister do this?.
Women of America, the constitution
of the United States is meant to protect
us, just the same as a man, sin the pur-
suit of life and happiness, and we are
weak and useless, if we do not in some
way, work with the end in view of puri-
flying the politics of the day.
There are but few called upon to take
to the platform, to that end-but those
who do, should be sustained in their eff
forts. Who shall say that they are not
prompted by the grandest motives?
They, like all of advanced ideas, have to
suffer criticism for time, but the next
generation will understand them better
than this.

Let us then, each in her way. if it is
only by a good thought, help as we may
to stimulate, purify and elevate the poll

Woman is coming to the front so rap
idly in all lines of work in which her
nimble fingers, active mind and staunch
integrity, makes her not only mans
equal, but often his superior-that we
will be forced to greater interest in poll
tics to secure just legislation, and put

down discrimination in prices for labor
If men could only realize that if women
had justice, equal pay for the same
work. they would not have to pine in
idleness, while women were doing the
work for half wages, and supporting
husbands and brothers. Legislation
may not be the way to reach this prob
lem. Public opinion will at any rate be
the first step, and this will be woman's s
work.
