WILLAMETTE SUMMER SCHOOL

Prof.
Matthews Writes of Work Be
ing Done This Summer.
Writing to the Joseph Herald,
Prof. Matthews, at the head of the
Willamette Valley Summer school at
Joseph lake, says: .

In numbers the school is small, but
of the convenient !
selves upon the use
settler and carries the burdens of out
side matters as well as giving most j
effective service in the classroom. His
genial smile and broad shoulders make
him a considerable factor wherever
educational work finds him.
Professor Matthews is delighted to
renew certain friendships of last sum-
mer. He declares ' that the snow-
streaked mountains are lovelier and
more alluring than ever.
The citizens of Joseph supported
the Summer School so generously last
year and treated the faculty and stu
dents with such fine consideration
that we are here again with full con
fidence. Nor shall we be disappointed.'
Already we are experiencing your
royal ways of welcome and hospital
ity.

SATURDAY AND SUNDAY ARE
: BUSY DAYS AT RIVERSIDE
- Saturday and Sunday were indeed
busy days at the Chautauqua. A down
pour or rain spoiled the forenoon at
tendance, and marred many a picnic
dinner, but the day cleared as it pr,o
grossed and! by noon the weather was
fair. A score of farmer families took
dinner on the ground and listened to
the Program'
The La Grande band was much in
eviuenue ana gave iour excellent con-
"j certs. Following the first concert Dr.
r G. Herbert rillvrl ahnr-t. nn
8ettle the Mexican situation without
other concert. Then came the first
performance of the Dixie Jubilee sing
ers an aggregation of seven colored
people that "got by" with a great deal
of success. Their numbers are wel'
mixed and varied, the singers indi
vidually and collectively are good and
the soprano and contralto are excep-
tionally good. Every appearance made
yesterday was likewise popular. Their
concerts were sacred in character
Sunday, but on Saturday n'sfht tley
gave a splendid line of humorous nuni-
kers. - i
Siemens speecn uiscusscn.
No speech that has been heard on
the chautauqua grounds foe a goo 1
many moons iias precipitated the
amount of discuss;or started by ' v.
L. G. Herbert, in his aftevii'-r. ad
dress on "cash, conscience and coun
ty." He was at the same time the
poorest and fines: speaker that, the
chautauqua has haddepending upon
the viewpoint of the critic. Although
he prayed that the day might never
come when a socialist president would
occupy, the president's chair, he as
serted that the movement of social
ism had much in it that reformers
rnd dreamers hail to contend with nnd
'adnnt TTa arlmito tliaf tia is visinnnrv
1 . . . , i
of the utmost truth.
As a speaker he is Impetuous and
"Methodistical" in his delivery. He
paid a pretty compliment to Walter
M. Pierce of this city, wno between
speeches was engaged in warm de
bate over the social problem of t-
day and admitted that Mr. Pierce had
set him thinking about the so:ial
problem thinking along a new line.
Mr. Pierce is, as is well known, bit
terly opposed to single tax. and Wr.
Herbert believes that single tax will
in some form play a prominent part
in the reformation of the land prob
lem. I
The Winning Party Described.
The composit parts of the political
party that will put America on its
permanent footing and solve the so
cial problems will be composed of the
following ingredients, according to
Mr. Herbert:
A vision of single tax, a vision of
idealism, a vision of the day when
there will be no interest, a vision of
religion all these will put ths world
on a universal brotherhood basis th?
mellenium, he said. I
The loncentms of opinion of the
speech is that it set the men and
women in the audience thinking, and
that in many respects the address
was a rare one: mixed with common
sense, visionary statements and hy
potheses that could be adopted or ig
nored, as the speaker desired.
The trinity of power is the school,
patriotism and religion, according to
Mr. Herbert's-address yesterday af
totuoon. The tremendous audience
which heard -him in the afternoon
was1 much pleased with his oratory
And his logic, However, the Saturday
afternoon speech will be remember
ed long after the Sunday afternon
speech is forgotten by those who
heard both.
The Dixie Jubilee singers were mora
popular , in their last concert than
the first, probably, and they left
town this 'morning after having given
eutisf action in abundant measure. '
Mrs. MiUer Winning
Lulu Dahl Miller is winning new
friends as she goes. Her voice rings
through the park like a silvery-voiced
bell, and her personality campers
are finding, is true blue, as her voice
is truly musical. ;
Dr. Brainerd is proving himself a
competent platform manager and his
course of Bible study lessons opened
this morning with a good attendance
and a splendid discussion.
Tennis Occupies Time.
The tennis courts were completed
Sunday morning and were occupied
throughout the day. The ground
worked into firm-condition quickly and
a great deal of sport has been the re
sult. '
Restaurant Is Winner.
, With par excellence food served and
at reasonable prices besides, the L; D.
S. restaurant "got off on the right
foot" from the start. The patrons
find that the service is first class;
hence, as the week progresses, the
ladies are going to get better patron
age than at first though the first
day was busy for them. Their deli
catessen is likewise broad in its scope'
and cheap in its service price.
The Sunday morning services were
a big success. Dr. Brainerd the plat
form manager delivered the religious
address and his first appearance in
a formal lecture was well received in
deed. The Treble Clef club rendered
appropriate numbers, much to the
edification of the audience.
8 JOSEPH NEWS ITEMS.
S
(Joseph Herald.)
When work begins in a few days on
the new logging road out. from Enter
prise a large number of men will be
employed at good wages while the
road is being built and at the big lum
bering plant to be established at En
terprise. It will put a large amount
of money in circulation a large slice
of which will reach Joseph business
houses.
An immense crowd of pioneers went
to the Amusement park above the
lake Friday forenoon to enjoy the big
reunion picnic. It is worth coming
many miles to see and hear M. V.
Knight make a speech. When M. V.
gets warmed up to it properly, his
gestures very much resemble a fel
low brushing off bumblebees.
One of the attractions of Joseph
is Geo. Hoist's fine garden of James
Hill mustard, just above the Herald
office. All the farmers stop and ad
mire it as they pass by. It is as et
ty a patch of J. Hill mustard as any
body ever batted an eyo over.
Joseph feels highly hopored by the
presence of such a sp'did army of
educated and refined people as are the
teachers and students of the W. U.
Summer school, which opened here
Monday. May they enjoy every min
ute of their stay among us.
Norman Palmateer was liberated
from the county jail this week, under
$500 bonds, with the understanding
that he is to remain out of this county
and not further molest his family. He
has gone over to some point in Wash
ington.
Scores of campers and tourists are
beginning to move to the Amusement
park above the lake for, a few weeks'
rest in the finest summer resort In
America. Hundreds of people will
spend their vacation there.
The town i? full of strangers and
they are still pouring in from every
direction for our big three-days cele
bration. We hope all will have a
glorious time as they .always do
here.

Harbormaster Wanted.
Oakland, Cal., July 6. (Special.)
Oakland is in search of a harbor mas
tera high priced man that knows
how to take entire charge of the bust- :
ness end of the city's big waterfront,
and get out of it adequate return for
I the millions that' have been invtested
to make it the best harbor on the Pa
cific coast. .
Frank K. Mott, Oakland's mayor,
.brought the matter up in his annua)
message to the city council. He told;
the council that more than $26,000,000
'had been spent on the waterfront by
the United States, the city and pri
vate interests to bring it to its present
state of high efficiency, and that, while
the income from the large amount of
municipally-owned property was big,
it should be still larger, and an expert
in waterfront business was needed to
increase. The council approved of the
mayor's plan, but no final action was
taken, nor will be until the proper
man is found. '
Mott also asked that a plan for the
completion of a belt railroad, to con-,
nect all points along the waterfront
with the several transcontinental and
local railroads, be taken up at once.
He also urged the development of the
western waterfront, or Key Route ba
sin, where a large amount of reclaimed
land is now open to industrial and
shipping use.
"Oakland harbor is naturally the
main shipping point of California,"
Mott declared, "and its water-borne
commerce is Increasing wonderfully
each year. But it should, grow faster,
and I want the city to take steps to
see that it does." ' .
