The paper was a credit to Bend and to the publishers. The Band’s Mascot President John H. Y’ oung o f the Hill lines in Oregon, made his first tour o f the Oregon Trunk last Saturday. He spent two days looking over the right o f way and acquainting him self with the system upon which the Hill interests spent some $22,000,000. Mr. Y'oung and other Hill o f ficials arrived at Redmond in their special car between 3 and 4 o’clock last Saturday a fte r noon and was met at the depot by Mayor Jones and a number o f business men o f the city. A number o f autos were in wait ing. and the new Oregon Trunk president was taken for a short ride through the Redmond Dis trict.

From here the party went to Bend. Bothersome Kids A number o f unruly kids are in the habit o f gathering at the post office at mail time and mak ing a practice o f turning the combinations on all the lock boxes they can reach.
