SUFFRAGISTS MEET AT MILWAUKIE SATURDAY

A rousing meeting of suffragists from Portland, Oswego, Oregon City, and other points will be held next Saturday afternoon at Milwaukie, where the regular meeting of the Grange will be given over to a suffrage programme. Misses Frances and Florence Dayton, working with the Women’s Club Campaign Committee and other local organizations, are endeavoring to make this one of the most enthusiastic gatherings of the campaign for “Votes for Women.”

Dr. Esther Pohl-Lovejoy and Attorney Sam S. Johnson will be the leading speakers on the programme, and will answer questions following their addresses. Those going from Portland will meet at First and Alder for the 2 P.M. car Saturday, going to Hendee station, where a committee of young girl suffragists will be waiting to welcome all comers and conduct them to the Grange Hall.
