In sending it to the Pilot, he said he figured it m ight be p ractical even today, and certainly of in terest. The re p o rt: Given by Hon. 1. N. Muncy, at P o rtlan d . May 31, 1911, the re port reads: It is w ith a degree of pleas ure seldom enjoyed by your hum ble sp eak er th a t I have in ap pearing before you not alone because I have the privilege of talking about the m ining pros pect? of the g reat sta te of O re gon, but because of the audience { have before me, coming as they do from so m any of the g reat m ining states of our coun try. T ru e it seems to me th a t I am a little out of place, a fte r listening to so m any able speakers as you have. But, nevertheless, I have som ething to say and som ething to talk about and th a t som ething is C urry county and her future. C urry county has been abused and oppressed as no o th er county in the sta te of Oregon, nor. as for th at, as for no o th er county in any sta te in the union. H er com m ercial in tere sts wiped out. held up as a highw aym an holds up a stage and robs the occupants of th eir w ealth, be cause of th e ir w eakness or lack of population. But the day is not fa r d istan t when she will have a g re a te r population and twice the w ealth of even M ult nom ah county today. And th a t is not all. Seven- ten th s of the county has been covered w ith a forest reserve thereby keeping settlers out and aw ay from one of the finest cli m ates on the Pacific coast, and ■ w hen I say th at, I would say in ¡th e U nited S tates. Besides this, 1 we have as fine w a te r and tim ber as can be found anyw here. Our w ater power is simply u n limited. and o u r tim ber equal to any to he found; also a rivet w ith a salm on industry second to none, save the C olum bia in the w est. E xcepting only as she is th ro ttle d by men and laws, think of it the w ealth in money and food she m ight produce. It seem s to me th a t th ere is no thought w ithin the range of h u m an conception th a t could m ake men feel m ore despisable than when depriving a man, men, a Continued on pagi su THURSDAY.
