HELPED
TO FILL
PETITIONS
Some Susceptible Man, or
Practical Joker, Added
Names to the List

Animated with an evident desire to
give to the ladies who have been cir
culatiug lately, in this county, initial
i've petitions for woman's suffrage,
lesson in practical politics, some hum
orously inclined person has augmented
the petitions with the forged names Of
prominent citizens The woman suf-
fragists, seeing the names Of these
we'll known men with the remainder
Of the list, have no doubt felicitated
themselves on adding these men TO the
ranks Of their supporters.
OF course somo practical joker has
imposed on the ladies, but for an anti
equal mffagist, the simple manner by
which the fair politicians we're taken
in would furnish a powerful argument.
The ladies, who arduously collected
signatures, win surely be disappointed
10 learn that some Of the most priced
names were added to the list as a
joke. and that the person supposed to
have signed was only represented by
proxy. The act may be forgery, in
fact Il could be legally construed TO
be such a crime, but after oil Il Is a
very good joke.
The forged names discovered 70 far
arc an on the petition delivered about
a month ago 70 tho county clerk for
eerti6cation by a woman lawyer Of
Portland. A number Of now petitions
have been placed with the ooun-
" clerk during tho past two days
for checking up, and clerks arc now
diligently 40 work on them. Fifteen
falsihed names were found on the Pc.
tition deposited by Miss McTaughlin.
whether they arc put there In good
faith by somo man animated with real
for tho cause, or whether they were
added by a practical Joker, may mover

CHINESE EXCLUSION.
It's Maintenance Necessary 10 Save the
Status OF American Labor.

40 haAhbenAAlco necessary 70 save the
Status OF American Labor.
(san Francisco Chronicle)
In his address az tho opening Of tho
annlal convention Of the American
Federation OF Labor, President Comp
ers laid particular stress upon the ne
eessity for the strict enforcement of
the Chinese exclusion laws, maintain
ing that tho exclusion OF the race 90 can
DO offended upon high ideal ethical
grounds, +" namely, that its admission
would ultimately result ''in tho De
teFioration Of our own race, under
mine our civilization and destroy our
very lives" While Il Is quite true
that there are ethieal reasons why the
Chinese, with their Oriental vices
should DO excluded as a social menace,
IL is unnecessary aud possibly danger
Gus 10 base the opposition to their ad
mission on those grounds Eastern
pro-Chinese sentimentalists are apt 10
use il as a club by reminding US that
We are not wholly free from vices our
selves ignoring the fact that our nor
al condition will be impaired by en-
grating on our vices those Of the
Asiatics.
We must rely upon sustaining the
enforcement OF the exclusion laws BY
strict adherence 20 the one fact, which
is enough in itself, that the admission
Of Asiatie coolies win degrade An.eri-
can labor, That is easily proved Il
is moreover, incontrovertible for the
reason that the degrading influence Of
the Asiatio on American labor has been
experienced in the past, during that pc
riod when no restriction on his admis-
sion existed. We cannot afford, under
any circumstances 20 renew the expe-
rienee. On the other hand the benefits
which have accrued to an American In
dustries' since his exclusion are plainly
Ia evidence. The sole defonsa Of
American labor against its positive
degredatiOn depends upon keeping up
the exclusion bars intact, and thai
fact should not be allowed to be befog-
god b. any other argument

HEREAFTER
FOR ANIMALS

Then there is the greatest argument
Of all, the argument Of incompleteness
itself-of children dying, Of lives dis
appointed, Of hopes unrealized, Of wis.
dom that glimpses a truth only 20 lose
It. Everywhere you turn you see a
glorious promise suddenly broken Off,
without any earthly explanation. And
to think that man can see all this pos
siblo truth and beauty and happiness,
and stretch out his hands toward It.
and then be thrust back brutally into
nothingnog, Is too monstrous CON
ception to hold for ono instant In the
face Of q rational universe. Now, the
animals life Is also Incomplete
20 than your own, when you come to
think Of it. The animal also knows
lifo and the JOY Of II; he begins 70 see
dimly some reason in IL, perhaps, and
takes care Of himself and his little
ones better and better and gets more
out Of life. And then, when life is
best, age steals upon him and he sees
youth and gladncss passing away, and
his poor wisdom avails him nothing
TO stay the things that he loves.
So far, then, as tho animals secms 20
you 10 possess rudimcntary mind.
you may reasonably claim for him
