THE BlOKCTAIl- OKEGO.VIAX, WEDNESDAY MAY 22, 1U07. 13 1 AT CLUB DINNER Splendid Spirit Dominates the Most Successful Gathering of Commercial Club Series. RECEIVE JAMESTOWN GIRLS Tortland and Its Relation to the Pacific Northwest," Topic Dis cussed by Local Business Men and the Eastern Visitors, Oresron grirls who are off to the fjamestown1 Kxposltlon in the Pacific Northwest party were the guests of the Commercial Club last nlRht at the reg ular monthly dinner. The presence of 3 4 pretty atrls from all sections of the state was no doubt principally re sponsible for the largest attendance of club members any of these dinners las" called out. or perhaps it was the fact that the affair last niitht was the last monthly dinner that will be held until ticxt October. Both these facts doubt less swelled the attendance; and, at any rate, the dinner was the most suc cessful since the monthly dinner has been instituted by th club. Harmony and co-operation whs the flominant note sounded by all the Speakers. The need of working shoul tler to shoulder for the advancement ft the whole Northwest, without Kv Ingr undue prominence to Portland alone, was voiced by all. But, better than anything else, was the optimism that was echoed by those who spoke end heartily applauded. The rocent excursion of business men to Boise, Ida., and the interior cities of Oregon, Riven by the Commercial Club, has made a marked impression upon the club members, and they readily agreed last night to the importance of closer touch with the business men of the Inland Kmpire. The long tables in the club dining room were completely filled early in the evening, and a smaller one was pressed into service to provide for an overflow. At the head table sat fieorge W. Stapleton. toastmaster: Phillip S. Bates, in charge of the Pa cific Northwest s party of girls: Charles AV. Hodson. president of the club, while on both sides of these three dignitaries the girls sat in a long row. The pres ence of ladies at these dinners Is a decided departure from the avowed policy which permits club members only to attend. The girls added to the interest of the affair, and seats at the head table were at a premium. Drink Toast to Guests. Toastmsster stapleton introduced the girls to the club as soon as all were seated, for they were compelled to leave early to catch the 8:15 train for the Kat. He complimented the party and his remarks were followed by a toast to the girls, which the membofs drank stinding. - Mr. Bates responded briefly, saying In part: "These young ladies represent the most progressive and live counties of the state. We have designed this trip lor the exploitation of Oregon and will distribute literature descriptive of this state at every town and city we pass through. The President has promised to give a reception to tlie young ladies In the Kat Room of the White House. I feel honored in bringing these young ladies here, and thank the Commercial Club for its courtesy." , 'Portland and Its Relation to the Pa rific Northwest." was the subject dis cussed last night. T. W. B. London was the first speaker. He said the recent pilgrimage to Boise and the other sections of the Inland Kmpire had Impressed him with the great pos sibilities of irrigation and he was now assured as he never had been before that Portland is destined to be the greatest city on this Coast. He said other Coast states have many rivals lor the place of the largest city, while Oregon has but one candidate for that proud distinction, and that is Portland. Portland Without a Rival. "Portland has -had no rival since the remote past." he said. vShe is with out a rival and I think we can be sure that she will be the motropolis of this Coast. "We must not neglect the interior. We must keep the people of that dis trict friendly and loyal to Portland." We must support the semi-arid por tions of the Northwest in their re quests for Government aid to develop their sections." Toastmaster Stapleton, in introduc ing Wallis Nash, said that while re turning from the Shrlner convention at Los Angeles, he heard someone ask a. merchant where he did bis trading end the reply was that before the earthquake he traded with San Fran cisco but since then he had largely traded with Portland. Mr. Stapleton Bald wholesale merchants should see to it that they retain this, trade and Hot depend alone on Portland's advan tageous position at the confluence of two great rivers. Mr. Nash, president of the Board of Trade, said he came here 30 years ago and remarked on the splendid progress the ctty has made since then. He said people of this city -are too fond of it. to get a true view, and that to gain a real perspective we should get farther away. He said the days when Port land may have tried to dominate the state have passed away and the way Portland can rightly prosper is to sus tain the most friendiyand helpful re lations with the surrounding country. Outsider Praises Portland. Fred H. Warren, of Detroit, Mich., was present as a guest and was. asked to speak on his impressions of Port land. He said the only modest peo ple he has seen on the Coast are resi dents of Portland. "Here your people are uncertain as to how many inhabitants you have, but down in Los Angeles If you meet a child 3 years old, he can tell you how many people Los Angeles has," he said. "In fact, down there they do not teach their children to lisp their parents' names first but the earliest thing they learn Is to speak something about Los Angeles. You have here a beauti ful city and a beautiful state. Every resident of it ought to be a "rooter' for Oregon and the city of Portland." E. W. Wright spoke on the Importance of the position of Portland in relation to the country with which it deals. He said the city acts as the commercial and financial agent of the Pacific North west. This was said to be due largely to the Impregnable position the city occupies geographically. Her situation made Portland from the earliest days the natural distributing point. In the pioneer .days traders came here for their goods; now dealers come here for money with which to do business. "Our relations have not changed." said he. "with the interior from the first. The trading center has become the financial HARMON SHOWN center and the relations with the upper country continue, as always, of the most friendly character. Natural Advantages of City. "Portland was made the metropolis of the Northwest, not by the hand of man. but waa destined by the Almighty to be the commercial metropolis of the North west. Where the ships can reach -farthest inland, there will be found the spot where ocean freights will be discharged and received. It would be folly, however, to relax efforts to retain the prominence Portland gains by her vastly superior position. These excursions into the In land Empire are of the greatest benefit. It is of course important to be acquaint ed with those with whom you do' busi ness. And fair treatment and honest dealing of our people are appreciated throughout Portland's, wide distributive territory." J. Thorbum Rosa spoke of the inter relations between Portland and the sur rounding county and said Portland should be the leader In working for the best interests of Oregon. In working for irrigation and harbor appropriations for the good of the whole state, Port land should be first. "Not alone In commercial. interests but in higher and better education, Port land should also be at work." said he, "In all that makes for civic righteous ness and purity and strength, Portland should stand first. It seems to me the note that should be sounded is that of co-operation. She should win the sup port of all the men in all the counties of the state. There should be no stab bing In the back; nor should the stiletto he laid aside to grasp the hammer of the knocker. George W. Fowles, of Detroit, Mich. said that when he stood on Portland Heights yesterday morning, he said to his friend he had traveled a great deal and had been all over the old country but the sight was the grandest he has ever seen. He said if the attractions of Portland were known in the East the people would oome out here in such numbers as to overwhelm the city. R. M. Hall spoke on the good work accomplished by the excursion to the Interior lately undertaken by the Com mercial Club. He said the Interests of Portland are identical with those of the whole Inland Empire. - W. B. Judson, of Chicago, spoke briefly and said he wanted to agree with a former speaker In saying that the view from Portland Heights and Council Crest is the finest thing he has ever seen. C. S. Jackson told some good stories that carried a moral and spoke for co-operation and a better understanding between people and communities, urging that in this way much more can be ac complished. Growth of Commercial Club. C.w. Hodson said Monday was the high-water mark In the history of the Commercial Club, for 272 members took luncheon - on that day, a larger number than ever before. C. K. Henry referred to the rajl roads of the state, which retain their land grants, as blights upon Oregon, He said these roads not only give In adequate service to isolated sections, but hold on to their land grants to the detriment of the state's growth. He contrasted the policy of the Northern Pacific, which has sold Jts land and Induced settlement, with the policy of retrogression that characterized the Harrlman lines. Colonel R. A. Miller spoke of the Infusion of country blood into the cities, and told of the returning Shrin ers, who said they liked Oregon better than California, and Portland better than Los Angeles. He said this kind of advertising will do much good. Tom Richardson wondered why there Is a strain of pessimism in Portland. "We are constantly pointing to Cali fornia and Washington " said he. "No other city on the footstool of God of Its population does the business this one does. We sell more goods in Washington than any city in Washing ton. We handle more lumber than any other city In the world, and no other ctty of 200,000 people has the number of traveling men out on the road that Portland has. In her building opera tions for the past month, Portland is the seventh city of the whole country. Let us get together and cut out this pessimism. Let us confine our speeches to Portland, and let us refuse to ap plaud these prophets of evil when they speak. I don't know ,why these pes simistic speeches are made. Tou can pile together the parks of all the cities, pick out the selected blocks of all the prettiest cities of all the world and then stand on Council Crest and one look from there will make you forget them all. We are advancing like the wind, and on our own money. Wo should get In the habit of saying so; let's' do that." MANY TOPICS TAKEN UP South Portland Club Discusses Pro posed Charter Amendment. The South Portland Improvement Association held a meeting last night. There was a good atfendance, and much interest was manifested. An .-executive committee consisting of E. B. Col well, chairman; Mark O'Neil. J. B. Laber, T. M. Mann. F. C. Sharkey, Mr. Webber and G. Phegley, was appointed to increase the mem bership of the association. A fetter was read from City Engi neer Taylor, reporting favorably on a number of matters looking toward the improvement of South Portland, that had been called to his attention by the club. Considerable time was devoted to a discussion of the proposed charter amendment. J. B. Laber spoke at length upon the subject, and personal ly agreed to send copies of the pro posed amendments as published by the city, to each club member, that they may be voted on Intelligently at the next meeting. The subject of the dumping of gar bage promiscuously about South Port land was discussed, and the secretary was instructed to make the proper complaint to the Board of Health and Chief of Police. GIVEN A JJBRARY SITE Eust Side People Called Upon to Erect Building. At the meeting of the East Side Im provement Association last night, W. E. Brewster announced that the quarter block on the southeast corner of East Eleventh and East Alder streets had been given as a site for the Bast Side Branch library, provided the people would erect a suitable building. He said that the Li brary Association trustees consider the proposition a good one, and that the East Side branch would be very Important, In view of the new East Portland High School. A suitable building would cost about $10,000. Mr. Brewster said that the East Side should raise this money and put up the building, as it would be a good investment. The Portland library would, put in 1000 volumes at the start and in crease to 6000. Mr. Brewster said that $40,000 was raised by taxation to maintain the main library and Its branches, and the East Side branch would, be considered the main branch. O. M. Scott. Joseph Buchtei and H. H, Prouty were appointed a committee to confer with the Portland Library Asso ciation as to plans and cost of building, and also to consider the raising of money. The association strongly favored the project. v HARRIMAX FREIGHT CLAIM DE. PARTMENT REORGANIZED. F. E. Kelsey and J. A McNeill Come From Taroms Offices of North ern Pacific to Portland.
