THIRD and OAK STREETS
The Editors.
The editors of the National associa
tion have come and gone. The trip
through Western Oregon waB a continu
ation of most agreeable revelations to
the visitors. The wheat fields, cozy
farms, orchards, big cherries and thriv
ing towns of the Willamette valley and
variety of scenery gave delight and satis
faction. The cornfields, immense or
chards, oak-covered' hills and mines of
Southern Oregon, was replete with
pleasant surprises. Words couldhardly
express the favorable Impression receiv
ed and many of them exclaimed that
he hoapitaliy surpassed that of any
Sam Jones
state that they had ever visited.
As an entertaining excursion to visit
ors it far surpassed anything that has
ever been given in Oregon. O. H.
Markham, traveling passenger agent, of
the Southern Pacific, personally superin
tended the details of the movement of
the trains, and was very energetic In
looking after the comfort of the visitors
and seeing that they were properly en
tertained. II. E. Dosch, too, deserves
much credit. He was head and front in
the management of the details of the ex
cursion and he did it well. In fact, he
is a large committee all alone. Colonel
Frank V. Drake, Colonel L. L. Haw
kins, Mr. Batchelder, Dr. S. F. Link
later all took active interest in showing
the visitors the plctureequeness and
productiveness of Oregon.
The people of Oregon have treated the
visiting editors royally, and some very
fine complimentary write-ups that will
prove of great advantage to Oregon will
no doubt result.
The visitors were- loud iu their praise
of the treatment accorded them by State
Secretary Albert Tozier and his sister,
Mrs. Edyth Wethered, who were pre
vented from going the excursion on ac
count of the death of their father, Judge
Tozier, the honored pioneer. Mr.
Tozier was elected third vice-president
of the National association. He was
largely Instrumental in securing this
meeting of the National association for
Portland.
Other instances of the trip will be
given out next week.
