The Band’s Mascot
President John H. Y’ oung o f
the Hill lines in Oregon, made
his first tour o f the Oregon

two days looking over the right
o f way and acquainting him
self with the system

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.
Mr. Y’oung expressed himsel/
as agreeably surprised at the
evidences o f prosperity noticed
in every direction in this dis
trict. and said he hoped to get
better acquainted with the peo
ple who are making this coun
try blossom as the rose.
From here the party went to
Bend.

kids as long as he intends to.
and warns them to either be
