Laughing at the Past: The Oregonian, March 21, 1907

I present you, without comment, with this series of headlines from the Portland Oregonian from March 21, 1907. During this era, papers commonly had 3 or 4 headlines, each slightly less large, before getting into the story. This story is a pretty basic one about a suffragist protest at the House of Commons.
