Taxation and Suffrage.

Those who advocate woman suffrage
are fond of quoting the colonial die
tum that taxation without represen-
tation is tyranny. and declare that
this, one of tbs Fundamental prin-
ciples upon which the country was
founded" is violated under present
circumstances as far as women are
concerned. Having no votes. they are
not represented in the tax-laying body.
Hence. they conclude, here is taxation
without representation. The colonists
declared that taxation without repre-
sentation was tyrannioal--wbioh was
one thing. The suffragists pretend
they said that taxation without votes
was tyrannical-whioh is quite anoth-
er thing. Thousands of men as we'll
as women in this country are taxed
without being able to vote. That is
the condition Of the residents Of the
District of Columb mbia. The property
of minors is taxed, yet they have no
votes. A man may own taxable prop
erty in dozen different states and yet
can vote in only one. The truth is.
that the phrase taxation without rep
resentation" did not refer to individu-
ais at all. but to the dealings of one
commonwealth with another.

ward, who died at his home in Walla
Walla Thursday evening of last week.
were held at the Central Christian
church in that city Sunday at IL o.
clock, and were In charge of Rev.
Joseph D. Armistead. In comment
ing upon the occasion. the Walla
Walla Union says:
The high esteem in which Mr..
Woodward was held was evidenced by
the large attendance Of neighbors and
aoquaintances from Umatilla county
where Mr.. Woodward formerly lived
near Athena. the attendance from that
section including many pioneers who
knew the deceased in early life.
These together with the general at
tendance from this city and vicinity
filed the church. The floral offerings
we're numerous and very beautiful.
The pail bearers were chosen from
the officers of the church and from
neighbors of the pioneer days who
are now residents of Walla Walla.
They were: e. S. Hornaday, William
Scott, John MoRae. S. P. Wright. O.
Fl. Whiteman. William Gross, j. I'll.
Roulstone and Gus Lindberg. The
following is portion of the tiograph-
ical sketch prepared and read by Rev.
Armistead at the funeral service:
Moses Woodward was born In Ellis
worth, Ohio, July 23, 1879, passing
away in his 7Sth year. At the age of
nineteen he crossed the plains with bis
parents, driving FIVE yoke of oxen,
an incident IN his life which be al
ways delighted in telling. being one of
the few things he referred to in the
latter hours of his life when memory
was feeble
"He settled near Salem Oregon,
where in October, 1879, he was mar
ried to Miss Laura Fletcher. Imme.
diately afterward he and his wife
crossed the mountains and settled neal
what is now Athena.
"Nine years ago Mr.. Woodward re-
tired from active work ON his farm
and came to Walla Walla to live
where he has since made his home.
''In his honest efforts to gather som
of this worlds goods he met with th
hardships of the early days, and lik
many of the men of those times. b
was hard-pressed. but he lived to sc
the fruits OF his labors, and his effort
crowned with success.
"He was always public spifite
man, devoted to the interests OF th
community, especially In the develop
meDt of the schools While he wa
always known as q moral man, thor
oughly just and upright in all hi
dealings, he did not become membe
of the church until he was about six
ty years Of age. From that time unit
his death he was an ardent supporte
Of the church in all its activities, be-
ing not only an earnest defender Of
the truth as he understood it. but {
generous supporter Of all the Interests
Of the church with his money. In thi
connection it is appropriate to say tina
he gave not less than $1,000 towart
