DAN C. BROWN.

City Controller Dan c. Brown, who
has filed for denomination on the Re-
publican ticket, has grown gray in
public service. He has been con-
nected with city and county affairs

been painstaking in his work and eff,
ficient in its execution.
1t was in 1908 that Mr.. Brown en-
tered the city controllers office, to
be elected city controller year later.
He took hold of the office Jan. 1, 1905,

Dallas. Saturday night, to an aud

the county were present. Mr.. Vests
talk did not differ materially from
his speeches made elsewhere in this
campaign. AS an outline Of these
speeches have been printed in the dali

claims for support are already famil-

candidate was given an enthusiastic
reception by the members of his party
in Polk County and his address was
greatly enjoyed by all.

voters within the strip signed the pc

the majority rule. All county divis-
ions should be decided by the wishes
of the people affected. BY not voting
at all you give half vote for the
measure. Multnomah, all powerful
does not need one-fourth of Wash

ington, which is already small in area.

WOMAN'S SHARE IN POLITICS
Timely Opinion by Miss Alice Hill
Chittenden, of New York.

One of the fundamental differences
between the suffragist and Anti-suff-
ragists as I see it is, that the former
clings to the belief that the ballot in
itself is a panacea for all existing evils
and all powerful as remedial agent
of government, while the latter rec
ognizes, in these opening years of the
goth Century, the development of a
power more potent than the ballot-a
power which at present we call edu-
Gated or enlightened public opinion.
The ballot hasn't solved our child la
Dor problem and never will. The bal
lot hasn't solved the negro trouble, it
has tended rather to complicate it,
but an awakened public opinion has
decreed that these problems and
others akin to them shall be taken out
of the realm of politics and be con-
sidered and dealt with from an econ
omic and humanitarian point of view,
conferences and congresses on child
labor, the care of dependent children,
tuberculosis and other questions,
which are being held throughout this
country to-day. And in these confer
ences the womans voice is heard
eluded from participation in such
work because she hasn't a vote, nei-
ther is her influence lessened as a
member of these committees for that
reason. Here is a great field of activ-
ity and usefulness for woman, a rare
chance to serve the state.
do not hesitate to say that those
of us who are opposing the extension
of suffrage to our sex, entirely elimi-
nate the personal element i'm our con-
sideration of yhis subject. 1t Is not a
question of whether we want TO vote
or do not want to vote.
We have the welfare and Develop
ment of our country at heart and af-
ter studious contemplation of the
governmental principles involved, we
are firmly convinced that such "a rev.
olutionary change" as Mr. Gladstoc e
called woman suffrage, would be again
st the best interests of the state, its wo-
men and the home, and would be a
step backward rather than one in ad-
vance.
A man in public life when interview
ed this winter on the subject of woman
suffrage said Somewhere within the
borders of this country today there
are mothers who are bringing up four
Presidents, one hundred cabinet Of
ficers, three hundred Senators and five
thousand representatives who be-
tween the years of 1880 and 1850 will
be making the history of this coun-
try and measurably the history of the
world"
Woman can have her share In poll
tics IL she will. The ballot isn't all. The
mere ballot she is so eager to clutch
doesn't I'm the balance of politics count
for more than an ounce in a ton.

GOOD WORD FOR NORMALs
Prominent Oregon Educator Speaks in
Praise of Monmouth School.

&c. H. Jones in Salem Statesman.)
Reports from all over Oregon show
that there is a shortage of teachers.
Almost every county needs more
teachers, and especially the eastern
Oregon counties. Is it not probable
that this scarcity of teachers is due
to the fact that for years past Oregon
has had no normal schools? Here
tofore, from 100 to $50 new teachers
were turned out every year, and the
cutting off of this supply doubtless ac-
counts, in a measure, for the short
age. With this fact before the people,
it seems to me we ought to vote to re-
establish the three normal schools. The
cost of maintaining these schools un-
der the proposed plan is insignificant
Amounting to about 12 cents for
each $1,000 of taxable property.
The people Of Salem and Marion
county should be especially interested
In establishing the school at Mon
mouth. 1t seems to the writer that 1t
is about time our beautiful city should
lose the distinction of being the "Sa-
lem hog" With all of our state insti-
tutions bringing to Salem vast patron
age from the outside, 1t would seem
that the people of Salem and Marion
county ought not refuse to vote for
the establishment of the proposed
normal schools. We should show to
the state at large that we can be lib
eral and that we do not want every
thing at Salem. We can do this by CIV
ing an overwhelming majority for the
Monmouth normal and the other
schools.
