, An addresB which should prove flatter

before the Effingham Cauutr, Ga., Ag
ricultural Society in JulyofthiB year
by D. G. Purse, president of the Inter
state Sugar Cane Growers' Association,
and also president of the Board of Trade
of Savannah, Ga. Mr. Purse has re.
cently made a trip through the North
west, and in the course of an address on
'Imm gration," be said that it wou d

as in the state 01 Oregon aud Washing

conditions and great general prosperity
among all classes. People so satiefiYd
and prosperous, believed Mr. Purse
could not be induced to change their
location.

claimed to be the roee state of the union.
Curious to understand the significance
of this claim, I asked a resident of Port
land upon what it was based.

dently jnst come to Oregon.'
In rides and walks about Portland, the
evidence of Oregon's claim was quickly
impressed npon me in bowers of roses
along residence streets, as the modest
homes of the laborer as well as the
more pretentious residences of the mil
lionaire had their flower gardens, and
wLere space was limited, houses and
piazzas were trellised with clambering
vines, radiant with many blooms.
A lover of roses, I never saw more
Petition for Postof'fice.
Being two miles from a postofflce,
that of Milwaukie, most of the residents
of the Oak Grove district desire better
postal facilities, and for that reason have
generally signed petition for a . new
postoffice to be located at Center station
on the electric line. Some of the peo
ple living at 0k Grove are served by a
rural route, but many find it necessary
to get their mail at Milwaukie. The
petition will be signed by over a hun
dred residents and then sent to Washington.
