Hill, president of the Great Northern rail road. Unable to 'attend himself, he caused to be read the following let ter. '' . "The state of Oregon has a big ad vantage in the race for prosperity and development which is reflected in the dual character of this occasion. It marks the centennial of the founding of this flourishing and enterprising city. It marks the culmination of or ganized effort for the development of the whole of your magnificent state that has been stirred to fresh and lar ger. activity by the labors of this De velopment league. ; "Your natural Inheritance Is prince ly. Ranking seventh in the union in size, Oregon Is a giant even among the great communities of the west Her area is as large as all New Eng land with South Carolina added. It is one-half as great again as the Turk ish empire in Europe. If it were as thickly settled as New Jersey is to day, it would support 5.000.000 more people than so now living In all the states of the union west of the Missis sippi river. .,,' "The eastern portion of your state is now, for the first time, being put into rail communication with the mar kets of the country; $30,000,000 were spent last year for railroad construe , tlon in Oregon.

I "If the men of a hundred years ago could not dream ot this modern and jl j progressive city where they set a trad- ; Ing post for furs in the wilderness ot an uninhabited coast, neither can we of today foretell the development that the next century is to bring, but we do know that It should be the greatest where there Is the largest store of ; natural resources and where these are Lively and his -associates to build the stock yards at Portland, and with Lively's splendid advice our people are going to raise more hogs and more hogs and more hogs each year.

P. ADOPTS TtLEPHOHE HAS FOtrSD THAT SYSTE3I OF DIS PATCHING SATISFYING Claimed That Dispatchers Have Less . - t.ku Than wih the Key. ., San Francisco, Aug. 16,. (Special) The work of train dispatching, one of the most exacting In the whole field of railroad management, is to be made much easier for the dispatchers of the Southern Pacific company. On several entire divisions and on parts ot other divisions the work has already been lightened to a great extent. The strair that the dispatchers usually, work un der is being and will be alleviated by the use of the telephone for train dis patching. ' ' -The old method of using the tele graph key for all dispatching has been found too slow. " Where it formerly required a considerable time to trans mit train orders by telegraph, a com paratively short time is now required. By a system of repeating all messages' and writing them down as they are sent and delivered, the operator and dispatcher are able to keep even a more complete record of all that tran spires than it using the telegraph. Practically the only difference, between the two system is that the telephone nrges direct conversation and the tele graph only written words transmitted by the comparatively slow Morse al phabet: With the telephone the dis patcher gets in closer personal touch with every man on the road through the use ot that instrument than he ever was able to do with the telegraph. At the present time telephone dis patching is In operation between Sali nas and Santa Barbara on the coast division of the Southern Pacific lines; over the entire Shasta division; on the Sunset, the Sunset and Western and the McKittrick branches, and will Boon be installed between Sacramento and Sparks. Exchanges are being estab lished and any operator on the line need only take down his receiver and pronounce the name ot his station to secure the immediate attention of the' dispatcher. The dispatcher has full control over the line, and no operator Is allowed to call up another station. The dispatcher will do the calling for him if business requires it, It is only a question of time until the telegraph will serve only as an emergency ser vice on the Southern Pacific lines. An other advantage of the telephone sys tem Is the simplicity, it being possible for any member of a train crew to tap a telephone line and tell of a train wreck, while it requires an expert to tap a telegraph line. , .
