YOUNG WIZARD OF FINANCE.
With Fake Roll He Purchases
Cigar and Fruit Stand.

Los Angeles, Cay.-There Is the
making of a wizard of finance in Ed
die Desser if the story Of his "plung
ing," told in the juvenile court is true,
for he did not deny charges when
faced by his accusers. Eddie is only
13 years old.
About ten days ago he appeared at
the brokerage office of a. Ludin, re-
marking that he was in the market
for a good cigar and fruit stand. At
the same time he exhibited a huge
roll of money. 1t was afterwards
shown that the latter was mostly old
paper with 81 bill deity wrapped
around it. The trade was fixed up
and Desser purchased the stand from
p NJ. Smith
Desser took charge Of the stand
for four days and he had a good time
smoking cigars. chewinf gum, eating
candy and treating his young asso-
ciates. He also took in more than
500 from sales. When time was up
Smith dropped around for his money,
out Dresser had nothing to give him
out the "glad hand" His arrest fol-
lowed. The court refused to punish
him.

after two years existence, today finds
itself very crude. 1t scarce under
stands itself yet. 1t has made many
mistakes in the past, and still makes
many. Started upon a financial basis
of getting subscriptions for the best
magazines, thereby fostering the best
literature for the public reading, it
encountered so much doubt and pre-
judice, that this source of revenue
seemed always precarious, and the
management has felt itself impelled
by the exigencies of existence to turn
aside into other channels of income
getting, thereby adding new difficult
ties to its already difficult road. That
this most important problem of it's
very life will be solved, is not doubt
full.
IN the meantime, men who believe
that woman's sphere is complete as
1t is, and think that anything enlarg-
ing that sphere is rank revolution,
will ridicule the league and use every
means to cast diseredit upon its
founder. In the worlds history, it has
been ever thus with new ideas which
in their perfection have proved earth's
greatest blessings.
The fact that Mr.. hewis' cause has
its backgrounds within the u. S.
senate chamber and the U. S. courts,
while the world looks on and listens
with interest to the booming of the
cannon as the opposing forces face
each other, officered on one side by
the L. S. postoffice department itself,
the attorney general of that depart
ment and the editor of a New York
paper, and on the other by little man
in "natty white duck suit" seems
to argue that there Is reason for this
interest, and that the powerful U. S.
government, If it's cause were just,
could, in its big maturity, as easily
win against this little man, who Is
mighty hard to kill" as, in its in
fancy. it did in its struggle against
the armies of Great Britain.
But, with nearly 10000 members
already enlisted, the American Wo-
mans League will live, whether E.
G. Lewis conquers or is conquered.
Respectfully,
A MEMBER.

THE LEAGUE WILL LIVE.
Editor East oregonian:

Editor East Oregonian:
Dear Sir:-1n your issue OF July
IL there appears on the front page
an article announcing the indictment
of E. c. Lewis for violation of the
U. S, postal laws. That you consid-
er this announcement of great i'm
! portance to our community is evidence
ed by its position in your columns,
and its heading printed in large
black letters.
Since you consider the American
Woman's League, of which f. G.
Lewis is founder and head, of such
great Importance to your readers, I
am sure you will be perfectly willing
to give as effective prominence to the
following facts;
MT Lewis and the league have ever
been at disadvantage from the fact
that man who is under indictment
by the federal grand jury must neces-
sarily be. in the opinion OF the casual
reader, who is also a loyal citizen of
our United States, under the blackest
CLOUD that could be over him. In
their minds, there is no room for
argument, the case is inevitably pre-
judged, and there can be but one ver-
dict to render. They do not for one
moment consider that, although we
should be loyal to our government,
that the members of the cabinet, or
congress, the supreme court. and the
heads of the departments are indi.
viduals more or less prejudiced them
selves by previous environment, train
ing, personal interests and habits of
thought, controlled, of course, by
their own mentality (strong or weak
and by their sense of responsibility
to the country at large, as we'll as by
their ideas of right and wrong. Where
these individuals can act only in
conjunction with others, their indi-
viduals can act only i'm conjunction
with others. their individual traits are
held in abeyance but where there is
no appeal from the opinion of an in
divdual, acting alone. it behooves the
psblic to think for itself. Mr.. Lewis,
himself, says in speaking of these in
dictments: 1T has become a politi-
cal necessity that | be indicted as a
criminal and if possible be railroaded
into the pententiary"
The league has an added dysad-
vantage, in that it is for women, and,
| if carried out to its ultimate inten-
tions, will, undoubtedly, lead to inde-
pendence of thought to much great
er extent among women than at pres
ent exists.
The writer is not woman suGra-
gist in the combative sense Of the
term, but believes that it will not be
many years before women and men
| will stand or fall, work or rest as in
dividuals and not as men and wo-
| men. Where women are best adapt
ed to fill the highest positions the
Creator has himself laid out for them,
| as wives, mothers and homemakers,
they will not shirk, but will be glad
| to assume such great responsible
ties: but, If for any reason they do
not find themselves adapted to such
vocatlons, they should and no doubt
will. be allowed to accept such work
as they are best fitted for; and, as a
natural consequence, the right for
them to vote will follow, because the
woman is a human being the same as
are the intelligent man, 1.-THE negro,
! the naturalized Chinaman or other
| ignorant foreigners dumped on our
shores"
