ATTENTION VOTERSi

On the 9th day of June, for the
first time in many years, the voters
of the Second Congressional Dis
triot will have chance to vote
according to their personal convic-
lions without any scratching.
There is but one office to be filed
and but three candidates for that
office.
1t is exactly as easy to wore for the
other fellow as it is TO vote for your
own party candidate.
This is the ONE time when only
the voter himself Will know how he
voted.
However closely the judges and
poll clerks may look at the ticket
when they count the votes they
cannot identity a mark.
Whichever way the election goes
it cannot at all affect the the poit-
cal complexion Of the national
House Of Representatives. That
body is and will remain until the
next general election Overwhelmingly
NNpuDllIbus
This being the first chance that
any part Of the people Of the State
have to express themselves, even
indirectly, upon the tax question
without running the risk of having
their ballots thrown out on account
of improper scratching, the result
will be looked upon as showing
what people really think upon this
vital question.
If you do not approve Of the new
assessment of real estate that has
generally doubled the tax value of
all the farms and town lots In the
State, vote for Colonel Davis.
If you believe that it was wrong
to deprive the farmer Of his exemp-
ton from taxation on his yearly
products and live stock, vote for
Colonel Davis.
If you believe that the farmer
ought to be allowed to deduct what
he still owes on his taxable property
from the tax value Of that property
vote for Colonel Davis.
If you believe that taxation can
not be reduced while State expendi-
lures are rapidly increasing, vote
for Colonel Davis.

States the people Will have been
taught a great object lesson by the
action of Secretary Taft and one
that 1t will be difficult for the pro-
tecuonists to eftace.
The administration is deep in the
mire of the Bowen-Loomis scandal
and promises to go to the bottom.
II 1t does it will probably result in
some extremely interesting reading
for the public and may result in
severing the connection of both
men from the diplomatic service.
II is impossible accurately to Judge
of the iucome as yet, but Secretary
Taft has taken hold OF II IN man
ner which indicates that he means
business and intends TO do absolute
Justice with partiality to no one.
The most serious OF the charges
against Secretary Loomis concerns
the check for $40, 600 which he
received FRONT he Asphalt Company.
His defense is that il was merely
an exchange, he giving a check on
a Venezuelan bank for like
amount in return. When the char
ges were first brought to the atten-
ton Of the President Avery ID.
Andrews informed President Roos-
evelt that this statement was true,
but the indications now are that
Secretary Loomis Will be called
upon to produce the cancelled
check which he gave the Trust and
which must have come back to him
long ere this, or at least to support
his statement by transcript from
the books of the bank which cashed
the check, showing that end of the
transaction.

EQUAL RIGHTS.
Call 60 the 37th Annual Convent Ion
or the n. A.W \. A.

The 37th annual convention of
the Nation al American Woman Suf-
frage Association will be held In the
First Congregational church, Port
land Oregon, June aSth to July 5th,
inclusive.
a cordial invitation is extended
TO all who believe in the inalienable
right of women to self-government
and also to those not yet in sympa-
thy with the purposes of this Asso
citation.
A government of men and women
not by women alone, not by men
alone, but a government by men
and women, for men and women
this is the aim and ideal Of our
Association.
One hundred years ago Oregon
was an untrodden wilderness. The
transformation of that primeval ter
ritory into prosperous communities,
enjoying the highest degree of civ
ilization, could not have been ac-
complished without the work of
women. No restriction should be
placed upon energies and abilities
so potent for good. The extension
of the right of suffrage would remove
handicap from the efforts of
women and give them an opportun-
ity TO work for the welfare of the
State.
We do not claim that women's
voice in the government would at
once sound the death knell to all
social and political evils. But we
do believe that government rep
resenting the interests and the beliefs
Of women and men would prove
itself, and is proving itself where It
now exists, to be a better govern
ment than one which represents the
interests and beliefs Of men alone.
The movement for the enfran
chisement OF women is based upon
the unchaDging and Interchangeable
principles OF human liberty, in ac-
cordance with which successive
classes Of men have won the right
OF self government
On such a foundation ultimate
victory is assured, and. in truth,
is conceded, even by those who
oppose The day is ever drawing
near when the Nation will apply TO
women the principles which are the
very foundations Of its existence
when, on every election day, there
viii be re-sffrmed the immortal
truths OF our Declaration Of Ameri-
can Independence. Then will this
indeed be a just government, deriv-
ing its powers from the consent Of
the governed

Milwaukee, the millers pounded out three triples,
a double and a single in the tenth which netted
seven runs and won the game from the brewers
yesterday afternoon by a score OF IL to Z.
Hickey and Stoyall were the opposing pitchers
until the tenth, when Cantillon, who did not
want to take chances Hickey weakening IN
the tenth, sent Bateman in. Hickey would have
victory, but the way the visitors treated the
new arrival in the box astounding. They
hammered him without mercy. Milwaukee came
to bat in the tenth and made one more run be-
fore, they retired.
Minneapolis started in with the lead which
they held for eight innings. Stovall loosened up
too much In the ninth and the locals tied the
score. The way the brewers finished in the
ninth gave the home fans hopes that their team
would win out in the tenth, but the massacre
in that inning pathetic scene, and the
supporters of Cantillons team turned away IN
horror.
In the first inning Milwaukee found Watty's
twirler easy and brought in two runs. They
were blanked for the following four innings, and
made one more in the sixth. Nothing happened
for the brewers in the seventh. One score made
