THIS PAPER REPRESENTED FOR FOREIGH ADVERTISING BY THE GENERAL OFFICE NEW YORK AND CHICAGO BRANCHES IN ALL THE PRINCIPAL CITIES ABSOLUTE KXTRAVAGANCE It Is not the practice of large met ropolitan hotels to enter into a pol icy that would seem to invite utter -financial disaster, yet such appears to be the case In the Instance of a well known Institution that claims to be, and we believe Justly, the home of eastern and central Oregon stockmen and farmers while in Port land. The Journal was favored with a tall from the publicity manager of that institution recently, which call we are sorry to say was made while the editor of this paper was absent. A polite request was left however for such publicity as we could see fit to "give" this magnificent hotel, and two objects of real value were left on the desk, presumably in pay ment for such publicity. One was a beautiful penny post card, showing the picture, in bright colore too, of the hostelry, a long banner bearing the name of the In stitution flying in the breeze, and automobiles, (filled we presume with central Oregon stockmen) lin ing the curb, denoting unbounded prosperity. On the revnrso side of the card is the usual place for artless, also space to write a message to your friend requesting that he to make this hotel his Portland headquar ters, also the place for a stamp, but the stamp Itself was overlooked in the haste of the publicity manager to depart. , The other article, representing even more value, was a red apple. Not a big Veil, apple, but just a red apple, about imedlum size. It was wrapped in tissue -aper, and the paper was overlooked and left right around the apple. ", Wo are pleased about the tissue pauer being left however, for we v,wt til take thlsl aniile to the above hotel, on our lull trip to this lively cuy, aim oner umu uie iimn agenient In payment for such ac commodations as thoj see fit to "give" us. Meanwhile It is locked securely in the olllce safe. THK, IjADIKS AUAIX Of course no one is foolish enough to suppose that a commun ity could run without Its ladles hut it has been repeatedly demonstrated In Prineville that the ladles are no longer an auxiliary to thu real workings of the community, but nothing less than the main motive power itself. ThiB was demonstrated most forcibly last Saturday evening when the second number of the excellent lyceum courao was given at the Commercial Club in this city. The first number, ail excellent mulo quartet, was played to n scanty house and the Commercial Club which had signed for the en tire course, foresaw immediate fi nancial disaster. The matter was turned over to the Ladies Annex with a guarantee that If the venture proved a finan cial failure, the Commercial Club would lose, if there was a profit, the ladies should have it. The result was a comfortably fill ed house, regardless of the fact that the laides had less than two days in which to sell tickets. The success of the course is se cured, and we predict a capacity house for the next number, which is tomorrow night. If ' you" are a mere ' man, and have not already secured tickets for the remaining numbers, buy a couple yet and be a sport. THK IRRIGATION CONGRESS The irrigation congress, timed as it was to meet just prior to the opening of the legislature, did a multitude of good work for a cause that is of first importance to this part of Oregon. The recommendations to the leg islature will not be forgotten, and we will hope that a large amount of good will come from legislation along the lines suggested. This congress has become one of the most important meetings in the state, and as should be, Prineville and Central Oragon men were every where evident, and the direct re sults that will be realized from this meeting will mean much for this part of the state.
