MISS ANTHONY IN OREGON.
Experiences of the Veteran Suffrage
Worker In Early Days.

The first time women's suffrage
was ever exploited in Oregon was in
1871, upon the occasion of Miss An
thongs first visit here, and this state
was no exception to the rule as re-
CARDS how the doctrine was first re-
ceived, says a Portland paper.
At that time Miss Anthony and
Mrs. Abigail Scott Duniway toured
the northwest together in the interest
of the cause, and met with many pc
culiar experiences. Mrs. Duniway
told the story of that trip yesterday
and recalled many instances of the
introduction of the doctrine into this
part OF the country.
The steamer which brought Miss
Anthony to Portland arrived in the
night time" she said. EARLY next
morning 1 called upon her at the St.
Charles hotel, and instead of the
cranky old maid the reporters of that
period had been picturing. / met a
softly-spoken and motherly looking
woman.
After some difficulty l engaged
the ORC Fino theater for her three
lectures. After she spoke in Portland
we visited a number of willamette
valley towns, and then went to the
state fair, at Salem. There being no
public hall on the grounds for meet
ings, we spoke in an open space in
front of the pavilion, where we were
compelled to raise our voices to a
screech in order to be heard above
the commingled din of competing
showmen.
"On this occasion a certain military
gentleman, a colonel and a bachelor
was espied i'm the audience whom Miss
Anthony recognized as one who had
characterized her in an article as a
slab-sided old maid The good-na-
tured excoriation he received before
he could get away was exceedingly
amusing to everyone but himself.
Returning from the valley towns
we proceeded up the Columbia to
Wallula. where We took stage for
Walla Walla, 80 miles distant. The
dust was a fot deep in many places
and the road abounded in hidden
chuckholes. But Miss Anthony rode
fearlessly on the boot of the lumber
ing stage coach, beside an obliging
driver. who regaled her with the trite
story of Horace Greeley's famous ride
in Nevada.
annie Pixley who was then star
ring in the northwest, had possession
of the only hall Walla Walla afford
ed, and no church being open to any
woman speaker at any price, we Sc
cured little room at the rear end of
saloon, where we had fine audi

EXCURSION TO LOWER RIVER.
DR.. Blalock Arranges With Captain
Gray for Two Trips.

As a result of the indefatigable
work of DIR. n. G. Blalock, of Walla
Walla, and the interest that well
known northwest pioneer has taken
in the open-river-to-the-sea project,
with independent steamboat service
transportation on the Columbia and
Snake rivers, Captain Gray will take
the steamer Mountain Gem to the
lower river on July Z, and will make
two excursion trips from Ainsworth
to Cello for the accommodation of
travellers to the Portland fair from
Walla Walla, Pendleton and several
eastern Washington towns, says ntle
Lewiston Tribune.
Two hundred excursionists Will be
carried each trip. The first excur-
sion will be made July s, and Cello
will be reached at 10 a. M, enabling
the excursionists to reach Portland
the same day. The second trip will
be made July Is, and on the return
to Ainsworth the first party of excur-
sionists will be brought from Cello.
The boat will make the return trip
to Lewiston on July II. During the
period she is at Ainsworth other ex-
cursions may be arranged aside from
the Cello trips already arranged.
Captain Gray has completed arrange
ments for the excursions after con-
ference over the phone with Dr.

TO FIGHT EXCLUSION ACT.
Steamship Companies Combine to In
crease Oriental Traffic.

CTedst Oflelltdl ifdllic.
With a view toward increasing the
trans-Pacific passenger trade, the
steamship companies operating ves-
sells between Puget Sound and the
Orient are attempting it is said, to
form IA combination and intend TO
adopt measures to eliminate to GER
tain extent the restrictions of the Chi
nese exclusion act, says the Seattle
Star.
From a high source of information
comes the statement that the first
step toward the desired end of the
steamship companies is the recent ef-
fort put forth on the part of certain
steamshipmen through the medium of
an alleged subsidized press, to obtain
the entrance into the United States of
All Jim. when. according to the ver-
sion of the immigration officials, the
Chinaman is a questionable character.
1t is pointed out by men who are
averse to having Chinese enter this
country promiscuously, that should
the present law not be upheld by the
United States authorities, the country
would, in a short time be overrun by
the Orientals and that the American
business man. clerk and laborer would
find himself under a ban which would
seriously hamper him ,and the future
welfare of his family.
The steamship companies are the
only corporations which would in any
way be benefited by the importation
of the Chinese, but the fact that other
corporations in the municipality would
be forced to the wall by cheap compe-
tition has no bearing with transporta-
ton companies as long as they can
reap a few dollars.
The immigration officials state that
at the present time they have all
| they can do to keep the Chinese out
! of the country, but If every Chinaman
who represents himself to be a mer-
chant or a member of some firm in
this or other cities, is to be allowed to
enter on his own recognizance, the ex-
clusion act would be of little benefit
to the country.
| All Jim claimed at the time of his
entry into this country to be a mer-
chant; so did All Tuen. This last
named Chinaman claimed to be a
member of the firm of Wah Youen
As such he was allowed to enter by
the immigration officials. One month
later he was discovered to be working
in the cheap Chinese laundries in tbs
city.
Subsequent Investigations on the
part of the immigration officials re-
vealed the fact that there were about
dozen members of the firm of Wah
Youen, but their word is all that has
been received to show that they are
really interested in the establishment.
The immigration officials also state
that many of the Cinnamon already in
the country have a habit of bribing
in son every now and then from one
of the islands between Seattle and the
| Canadian border.

IRRIGATION AT WALLULA.
Large Force of Men and Teams Now

The Columbia River Irrigation

main canal has been finished and
water taken from the Walla walla
river at 9-mile bridge, turned in.

sented among the visitors. Though
the East is naturally the most large

sized delegations on hand from the
Central states while the Rocky noun
tain and Pacific coast regions have
representations far exceeding the
early expectations. The proximity of
New York city and other large cities
to which side trips will be made after
the convention has concluded its bust
ness is regarded as responsible in a
measure for the unusually large at
tendance.
The meetings today were confined

New York, July Enquiry today
developed the fact that Lieutenant
Commander Peary will hardly be able
to complete his preparations and
start on his trip to the far north to-
morrow as originally scheduled. The
Roosevelt. in which the polar journey
is to be made is still taking on stores
and it will perhaps be several days
before she will be ready to sail. The
departure, however, will hardly be
delayed beyond the end of this week.
Lieutenant Commander Peary in
tends that the Roosevelt shall be bet
ter equipped for the trip to the Arc
tic regions than any previous ship
Even though the date of sailing must
be deferred, he insists that everything
shall be perfectly arranged before the
departure. After leaving New York
the Roosevelt will make but one stop
Leaving the latter place the vessel
will plunge Immediately into the re-
gion of polar bears and icebergs.
Arriving at Grant Land, Mrs. Peary
and their 12-year-old daughter will
be put ashore to remain in specially
constructed cabins while the husband
and father endeavors to accomplish
the last stage of his great journey.
The expedition will consist of 20 men,
several of them physicians and scien-
lists and all of the rest carefully Sc
lected hardy young sailors from
Maine.

Denver, Col, July 3.-The interna-
tional convention of the Epworth
League opens here day after tomor-
row. Visitors. are already beginning
to put in an appearance and indica-
tions point to large attendance.
Many of the early arrivals have scat
tered to nearby resorts to spend a
day or two before the convention be
gins.
What the Christian Endeavor is to
the other evangelical denominations,
such is the Epworth League to the
great world of the direct followers
of John Wesley and his teachings.
Strong efforts have been made at
different times to induce the Metho-
dists to come within the fofd of the
Christian Endeavor, bat the govern
ing spirits OF the denomination, rein
forced in a large measure by the
rank and file, have preferred to main
tain and develop their own organiza-
tion for young people. To this end
they have labored with unabated zeal
and energy, with the result that, in
numerical strength and in spiritual
influence, the Epworth League OF
Methodists is now second only 10 the
church proper itself.
Notwithstanding the fact that the
present convention is held so far west,
remote from the great centers of the
denomination in The eastern states
and in Canada the aruiiSals to date
and the advices concerning the organ
lied delegations and individual visit
ors who are en- route indicate that
the convention will be one of the
largest ever held under the league
auspices. 1t will be notable, moreover
for the number of distinguished peo-
pie who are to take an active paru in
the proceedings.
