Prominent Portland Women Opposed the Extension Of Suffrage
Discussion from the Standpoint Of the Home by Miss I Martin

the indifferent stranger within the
gate!
The chief of police of Denver has
said that "however imperfect the ju-
venile court may be, nevertheless It
is necessary 1t is the only means left
Of disciplining the children. The men
and women today, do not want homes;
do not want children and when child
rem are born to them, they will not
stay in the home long enough to give
them proper care and training-so the
city must train them!"
Today, we begin with the day nurs-
cry, then the kindergarten, and so on
to the Juvenile court, the state and
city houses Of detention, reformatories
and other institutions; or, with the
private school, the summer camp, the
boarding school and college-the
mother is little troubled with the work
of opening the mind Of her child to
the beauties and the dangers and the
difficulties of life. That is Worlds
Work" and must be done in institu-
tions--on salary!
The education of the world rests in
woman's hands-and she throws II
away to give her mind to the making
Of laws-to the co-ercing and CON-
pelllng of the world which she might
have led--thereby reducing the need
for law and the necessity for punish
ment.
Equality, identity, even enforced
similarity Of functions between man
and woman is an interruption Of the
progress Of specialization which has
been the work of the ages. The lily
blossom Of human experience, the d.
vine flower Of purity, within its heart
love, hope and charity, sends its root
down through the ocean of existence

is assumed that she will bear and rear
children; that she will conduct the
business Of the household, even to the
point Of performing all the necessary
labor of the household, should occa-
sion require, and to maintain suitable
relations with the outside world-to
incorporate the family group into the
social group. And yet, we are told
that women no longer have enough
to occupy them; that men have taken
away their legitimate occupation! The
woman who can perform all Of the
manifold and manifest duties of
woman, to her own complete satisfac-
tion, must indeed be wizard!

wife, duties which lie without ques-
ton within the house, the home-must
we not question the statement that

ion to the family A very large ques-
tion looms before us here-what is
the relation of political privilege or
rights, to personal duties? What does
the man owe the state, as well as
what does the state owe the man?
The duties of the woman in the
home may make her presence in tae
home necessary, literally all of the
time. Can she undertake public du-
ties without a conflict between those
public duties and her private duties
Is It not recognized as politically inn
moral to undertake public duties
where such conflict does, or may be
expected to exist? Political power
does not begin and end with the cast

DARR0W FORCED TO PLEA
ANSWERS MOT GUILTY

Los Angeles, Calf, Feb. 3.-Earl
Rogers, counsel for Clarence Darrow
filed today a motion to set aside and
quash the two indictments charging
Darrow with bribery. The motion
was based on the grounds that the
names of witnesses, whose testimony
was presented to the county grand
jury returning the bills, were not en-
dorsed on the indictments.
Presiding Judge Hutton of the su-
perlor court, overruled it, saying that
it was his opinion that the grand
jury was legally constituted and that
the names OF all the witnesses were
legally appended to the indictments.
Rogers then fled demurrers to the
sufficiency of the indictments. These
were also overruled and Darrow then
pleaded not guilty. The case will be
called February H. when a trial date
will be set.
Superior Judge Mccormick will
try Attorney Darrow according to
Presiding Judge Hutton today.

Presidential Candidate Says
Kept Press is Menace
to Welfare Of Country
Is Denounced.

Washington, Feb. 3.-Senator La
Toilette is in bad today with eastern
newspaper publishers, following his
yitrolic denunciation of what he
termed the kept press" at a ban
quet of newspapermen in Philadel-
phia last night.
Arriving here today the senator
went to Providence Hospital and un-
derwent a slight operation which
gave rise to a report that he had COL
lapsed as a result of the batting
he indured.
During his address he was repeat
edly hissed and publicly censured by
the postmaster for what the toast
master tremed an untruthful attack
on the press"
In his Philadelphia speech, Sen
ator La Toilette alleged that many Of
the country's newspapers were con-
trolled Through their dependence on
banks and the advertising of other
special interests"
He said in part:
I'VE may expect this kind of con-
troll sooner or later to reach the mag
azilnes.
But more than this; want to
warn you of subtle new peril-the
Capitalization of all advertising that
in time will gag you. What has oc-
cured on a small scale, in most cities,
will extend to n national scale and
before long will close in on our mag
azines.
1T is not the kept sheet owned by
men of great wealth, to further their
own interests, that are grave dan
ger to this country. 1t is the con-
troll OF others, in which the main
danger les"
At the conclusion. Don Seitz, toast
master, said:
"I shant attempt to defend the
newspapers of this country, which
have just been so wickedly, foolishly
and untruthfully attacked.
During the last of the address SEN
ator La Toilette was Missed by the
journalists.

OHIO CHAIRMAN SAYS TAFT
Is NOT WANTED BY PEOPLE

Columbus, Feb. 3.-"Colonel Roos-
evelt viii yield to a genuine popular
demand for his leadership" is the
gist of a political statement made
here today by Chairman Walter
Brown of the republican state central
committee of Preident Taft's state.
He said: THE people have decided
to elect someone other than President
Taft The republicans won't compel
the people to change party in order
to change presidents. The most avail
able republican is Col. Roosevelt, in
whom the people have trust. These
are the three reasons for the Roose-
welt movement"

President Taft Advises
Secretary of War That
Situation Demands In
mediate Action.

Washington, D. c., Feb. 3.-The
United States war department today
issued warning to Mexico that an
other 'maneuver camp" will very
likely be established along the Mex
lean border, if the war situation in
the latter country does not clear up
within short time.
This action was taken following the
receipt of messages by President Taft
from Governor Colquitt of Texas, and
American Ambassador Wilson of
Mexico City, each asking that ade-
quate protective measures be taken
by the United States to protect Am
erican interests in the southern
country.
Two regiments of infantry and
cavalry at Fort Sam Houston, near
San Antonio, have been issued ra-
tions preparatory to doing duty along
the border in case it becomes neces-
sary to send additional troops. The
government has ordered three thou
sand troops to be held in readiness to
go to the danger zone. They are now
distributed in several forts in the
United States.
