GROSS & MOODY On The Hill A Sunday Tramp Aronad Ore gon City and What on 3 Sees. Thriving Vlllages.Prosptrous Farmers and Happy Homes. On Sunday last it was the pood fortune of tbe editw ot the Oregon City Courier I to Bpend a half a day tramping around .U.. ...Li-,. Ar 4l,n Uootilnl lit.!.. nlt.. of Oregon Citv. One does not know what a lovely place this is, until he gets back on the bills near Ely ville and looks do n ou the smoke atid bustle and quite beauty of tbe city that lies at his feet. Ely ville is more than a mile south west of Oregon City aud some eight hundred feet ab ve Main street. It is a prosperous village with stores and black smith and wauou shops and many heat and comfortable homes. It takes it name from the Ely family several of whom yetjive within its limits. George Ely has a" very large and prosperous general store at Elyville, bas his own waier woike and one of the most com Ion able and pretentious homes on the hill. From Etyville or from its immedi ate environments you can get the finest view of Mt Hood to be had with'n the vicinity of Oregon City. The grand old mountain lifts its snow clad peak into the sky and seems to lower miles above all of the surrounding country and the remainder of tbe Cascade ranee. The snow on its crest glistens in the sunshine and it is indeed a magnificent land mark. From Elyville across to Mt Pleasant is only half a mile by tbe way of the Rose tarm or the Holmes park. One of the substantial industries of Elyville is the chicken farm of 0, W. Morrow. He has some of the finest birds to be found in the state of Oregon, Plymouth rocks, barred and white. Splendid specimens. He has taken many of the first premiums for chickens both in Ore gon and Washington during tbe past several years. Many of his finest speci mens are valued at from $5 to (10. W. B Stafford, one of the substantial citizens of Mt. Pleasant is engaged large ly in the truck farming industry as well as raising pork and chickens, eggs and turkeys for market. He finds tbe busi ness pays very well and he has a neat and well kept farm, although ve did not find him at home. Among the many industries around Ely ville is the dairy business.' There are some half dozen dairy farms among which is the fi rm of J. M. Waruack. Mr. Warnack keeps twenty-five cows. He sells all of his milk in Oregon City and at this time is not able to supply the demand made upon him by bis many cust inters but hopes to do so by the first of next month. Tbe dairy business is very profitable and Mr. Warnack is doing well as are all of the milk farmers in that neighbor hood. The Mt Pleasant neighborhood seems to be especially adapted to dairy farming and poultry industry. One of the most striking features of the Mt Pleasant neighborhood is the Homes Rose Farm and park. It is an old time place grown old and wild with flowers and evergreens. It is one of the many beautiful sights around Oregon City. Returning home by way of tr-e Mt Pleasant hid we found a delightful walk and a beautiful winding road in perfect condition at this season of the year, , We also passed the poultry farm of Attorney, C. W. C wing. Located on a 'hill side" where drainage was perfect and several hundred finely bred hens, I are doing duty and making fine money for their owner. Mr.;.i;owing tases especial delight in his chickens and eggs for the market. Half dozen other chick en farms were passed enroute. The iitprovements of Jackson street under Contractor, J. 0. Bitner is rapidly nearing completion and when finnished it will be tbe most sightly street on tbe hill in Oreuon City. Tbe work has been well done and while' the cost has been very considerable in time it will ampiy pay for iteelf. Fifth street is also being improved by a new coat of metal which has been crushed by a stone crusher and will be tbe be t street in tbe city this winter. It would occur to us tbat at least one street on the hill oueht to be improved each season until they are all improved, then Oregon City will indeed be a nice little city. All kinds of Building Material, Sash, Doors and Moulding. Oregn Gty, Oregon & Gros, Oregon Editors i '; Had An Excellent Meeting at Salem Last Week. Will Meet at Hood River and Attend The Louisiana Fair at St. Louis Next Year. The Oregon Press Association of which the writer is a member, met at Salem last week in its legular annual session. The Press Association is made up of Rep resentatives of the press from ell the newspapers of Oregon. Daily and Week ly, Monthly and Quarterly Trade, Re. ligious and Political, It was a good bunch of fellows with their wives, daughters and sweethearts who attend ed this meeting, nearly a hundred in all. The meeting itself was devoted to the reading of interesting papers and the delivery of addresses on the various sub jects which interest newspaper men in the successful development of the news paper business. The papers read and the addresses delivered were all first class in every particular and very in structive to any one who is at all inter ested in tbe subject matter. The pewspaper men of Oregon are up-to-date. They, are keeping step with the profession in other states. . Officers were elected for next year and Hood River the great strawberry and fruit growing section of the Pacific Northwest was selected as the place of meeting. The time of meeting will either he in Jnn during the strawberry picking season, or in Octcber during the annual iiuic lair. In audition to at tending the meeting at Hood River a car load of delegates will attend the Louisiana Purchase Exposition at St. Louis as representatives of this sttte to the World's Congress of Newspaper men . They will also go as boomers of the Lewis and Olark Fair which is to be held at Portland in 1905. There were quite a number of dis tinguished visitors who attended the daily sessious of the Press Club Among them was Mrs. Dunniway, of Portland, a sister of Hon. Harvey Scott, and a half sister to Mrs. Clinton Latourette, of this city. She was 69 years old on the day of the first session of the Associa tion. She is one of the best known women on the Pacific coast and lias de. voted much of her life work to the propigation of tbe Women Suffragist idea and is still at work on that theory. She made an address to the meeting which was able, instructive and very well received indeed. iix-uuvemor Ueer and Hon. George 0. Brownell each attended the meeting and received the courtesies of the pu i Ushers. They were invited to tbe ros trum, introduced and each made a nice, pleasing address to the convention ol editors. The country between Oregon City and Salem is one of the finest countries in tbe world. It is worth going miles to see. At this season of the near when all nature is at its best it is especially attractive. The Southern Pacific Rail road winds along the banks of the beau-, tiful Willamette river through fertile valleys, past beautiful homes and thriv ing villages, where peace and ana plen ty were manifested on every side. Salem itself is a lovely little citv with its 10,000 people, puolic buildings and lovely homes. Un the east the main divide of the Cascade mountains markB the sky line and the coast range fading away in the hazy sun light of an Octo ber day warns the western horizon. Tbe citizens of baletn not only have a good town but tbey are thoroughly alive to that fact. They believe in their town ana and swear by it. It is growing to at a marvelous rate and there is no reason in the world why one of these days Salem -should not be a town of 1UU,0U0 people or more. While in the city of Sslem the editors auu meir wives ana sweethearts were handsomely iieated by the citizeds of that progressive city. They were taken over the city in a trolley car and shown all of the public institutions and daces of interest. On Friday night they were tendered a grand ball at the armory and everything was done that could bi done to make their stay within the city pleasant and profitable. Tbey will long remember Salem and her gooa people. During the same time the Press Con vention was in session in Salem the W. U. T. u. of the slate of Oregon was also holding a meeting in that town. By one of those strange coincidences which hap pen once in a while the badges for the delegates to each meeting were almost identical, each beins printed on white satin ribbon in gold ink. A party of delegates of which tbe writer was one while walking around town and viewing the lovely prospect of tbe beautilul city were mistaken tor a party of delegates to the W. U. T. U. This was somewhat embarassing but we let it go at that.but at the same time this was mixing things up not a little on as. , , Itedland, Mr. Gaskell, of New Era, has moved hli household goods from here, having broken - up housekeeping.
