HARRISON ADVISES
OVERLAPPING OF LAW

Chicago, oct. l7.-Mayor Carter
II. Harrison, whose father was as
gassinated while chief executive of
the city, advocated a general over
hauling of American criminal pro-
cedure, while commenting on the at
tack on Colonel Roosevelt.
1T is an outrage to allow man
To get off with a small fine when he
is arrested for carrying weapon
said the mayor. He should be Civ
en- the extreme penalty Looseness
of law is probably one of the contrib
uting elements which are measured
by the would-be assassin. | remem-
Der when my father was assassinat-
ed. papers all over the country were
full of threats against public otfi-
cials. but they ceased when it was
known the slayer was to be punished
10y death.
Take our own criminal court as
an example. Lately when women are
accused of murder. it seems almost
impossible to get a conviction. An
entire overhauling of criminal pro-
cedure and a stricter enforcement Is
what is needed in my opinion

JOHN SPAIN IS
NEARLY KILLED


Hard luck seems to De lowering
about John Spain. popular Union
county stockman and buckaroo who
won the championship in the bucking
conteSe at the 1914 Roundup. Last
July while giving an exhibition of
steer roping he suffered an injury
which caused the amputation of one
ol his hands and now comes the re-
port that he has just had narrow
escape from death when an out
law which he was riding at the John
Day fair fell and rolled with him. The
following dispatch tells of the Incl
dent:
I'm a bucking contest at. the fair
here. John Spain who won the North
west championship for riding at the
1911 Pendleton Roundup. had a mar
row escape from instant death. The
horse he was riding. failing to throw
its rider after repeated and bewilder-
ing stunts Of hacking. suddenly threw
out its head. dropped to the ground
and rolled over. the horn of the sad
die fortunately striking the rider far
enough to one side to miss a vital
spot. As it was Spain was seriously
hurt and lay on the ground unconsci-
GUS for some time. The saddle horn
crushed and lacerated the upper por-
ton of his chest. Had it struck a
few inches lower Spain's riding days
would have been over. In the finals
Spain was awarded first place and
Smiley" Corbette second. Tom Carey
was quickly thrown by Hot Foot OF

CIVIC DUTIES VS.. THE POLITICAL
CAME

Ida NJ. Tarbell says one of her
chief objections to woman suffrage
Is that 'it will take the attention of
women from what | believe to be
their rea! civic duties by interesting
them in the political game, while
they should be. concentrating their
attention on specific civic work"
All right minded women want this
work done, hut they differ as to the
method. The suffraglst thinks the
ballot the panacea for all ills of So
clety. The anti-suffragist believes
that the constant and effective influ-
ence now exerted by women on leg
lalati0n and pubic affairs is due to
the character and Intelligence of the
women who advocate good causes. A
woman now interested in a matter of
public welfare is known to be un-
selfish and with only the interest of
her cause at heart. The same -wo-
man under woman suffrage is only
one Of many political units, with ig-
norant and Indifferent women voters
added to the other elements arrayed
against her success.
A few women today are idealizing
the ballot, while what will really solve
juvenile delinquency, intemperance,
the white slave traffic, and the social
evil is education. education and more
education in the homes and from the
earliest hour of childhood, and there
an lies the civic duty of women. big
ger than the casting of any ballot, and
absorbing enough to occupy all the
women Of oregon for all time.
1t is to keep the women of this
state out of the political game" and
leave them free for this greatest of
ali their duties that we ask you to
vote against the woman suffrage
amendment at the coming election.
