ALL WENT TO FAIR
OREGON CITY PEOPLE ADVERTISED
COUNTY'S RESOURCES.
Practically the Entire Population Partici
pate and Distributed Famou Clack-
ama Chen-lea.
Saturday waa Oregon City Day at th
Lewla and Clark Fair and all Oregon City
waa there.
The people of the city were not only
there but they wore badgca that Indicat
ed the town from which they came. The
exerclaea were carried out aucceeitfully
and the town made a splendid showing.
Mra. Tope, aa hosteas, waa agisted by
a acore of patronesses In recelvina the
vlaltora to the Oregon building during the
afturnoon while a dozen of the city's fair-
cut distributed several hundred pounds of
the choicest Clackamas county cherrlea
among those who chanced to Inspect the
Oregon building before and after the pro-
gramme of exercises.
When the day had ended there remain
ed o,ulte a supply of cherries and these
at the direction of Mayor Sommer were
dlKtribtited among the other state build
ings with the compliments of Oregon City
and Clackamas county. Hon. Jefferson
Myers and President H. W. Goode were
also remembered with a basket full of the
delicious fruit.
The following report of the Oregon City
Day exercises appeared In the Sunday
Oregonlaa:
In attendance and Exposition enthusi
asm Oregon City, Woodburn and Astoria
established a record yesterday that will
stand for many days, aa the cltliens of
those thriving and prosperous cities out
did all previous efforts In showing the
Portland residents that they were vitally
Interested In the success and welfare of
the Western World's Fair, and determin
ed to do their part In making all other
Expositions Justly envious. As nearly as
could be estimated there were about 3500
visitors from the three cities! Oregon City
furnishing nearly 2000. Woodburn con
tributed a little more than 700 visitors
and Astoria about 800.
Wheat, wool and other products of
Eastern and Southern Oregon gracefully
resigned from the throne they have oc
cupied the greater part of the past week,
their places to be taken by the salmon,
for which Astoria has become famous;
the magnificent and almost unlimited wa
ter power and the manufacturing Indus
tries of Oregon City, and the hops, hay,
vegetables and dairy products raised fn
the Immediate vicinity of Woodburn. The
lands of the Irrigation ditches and the
mountain regions had covered themselves
with glory, and they were only too willing
to abdicate In favor of the Western part
of the state.
Not only did the Oregon City people
exploit their factories and mills, made
possible by the waters of the Willamette,
but they took advantage of the opportuni
ty of showing to the world In general that
they were also capable of producing some
thing more than woolen goods, paper and
electricity. They wanted to impress upon
the Eastern people that the country sur
rounding Oregon City was also blessed
with that fertile and everlasting soil, such
as is only found in Oregon.
They brought along with them hundreds
of cases of enormous black cherries which
were distributed among those who were
fortunate enough to receive a tip and visit
the Oregon building. One of the rooms of
the lower floor was reserved for the dis
tribution of the fruit, and willing hands,
belonging to the young society ladles of
Oregon City, were kept busy the entire
day handing out large packages contain
Ing the cherries. The news that cherries
were to be had free of charge on applica
tion spread rapidly over the Exposition
grounds, and before night the requests
for packages of the luscious fruit became
so numerous and urgent that the young
ladles were swamped. At last they be
came exhausted, and, placing baskets fill
ed to the brim, on the table, they let the
visitors help themselves.'
A reception of the Woodburn and Ore
gon City visitors was held in the build
Ing early In the afternoon, at which rosea
and carnations were given away.
Oregon City and Woodburn united In
the exreises of the day, which were held
on tha front porch of the building, to the
Interest and enjoyment of one of the larg
est audiences that has assembled to cere
monies of that nature. G. T. Harry, of
the Oregon State Commission, presided
chairman and called the assemblage to
order at about 4 o'clock. He dellvred an
address of welcome on behalf of the Ore
gon State Commission aa did Presi
dent H. W. Goode In the Interest of
the Lewis and Clark corporation. Both
of the addresses were very commendable
and invoked applause.
The responding addresa was made by
Mayor E. A. Bommer, of Oregon City,
who assured the Exposition officials of
the hearty co-operation of the citizens of
Oregon City and Woodburn in the great
movement of making for the Fair a name
that will stand for ages. Mra. Eva Emery
Dye, author of "The Conquest," also de
livered a eulogy on Oregon. Mra. Dye
made a deep and lasting impression on
her listeners, as she told about the beau
ties and advantages of Oregon and the
hardships that were endured by the stur
dy pioneers, who first settled and tilled
the soil of this state. There were a vocal
solo by Miss Imogen Harding and a piano
solo by Miss Veda Williams, both of Ore
gon City. The solos were appreciated
and applauded by the audience, as the
young ladies are talented musicians and
the renditions were excellent and partic
ularly appropriate.
State Senator George C. Brownell was
the next speaker, delivering an eloquent
address on John McLoughlln, the famous
pioneer, and the part Oregon City played
in the early development of Oregon and
the establishing of the provisional gov
ernment in the early days. He said that
while Oregon City was an old town It was
still young and that it was an important
factor In the present and future develop
ment of Oregon. "Oregon City is by far
the greatest manufacturing center in the
state," said Senator Brownell. "We have
a pulp mill that employs fully S00 men,
and a woolen mill that has 350 employes,
not to speak of the immense plants that
generate the electricity for the city of I
Portland. In the East, when a man wants
to enjoy life he has to play with his bank
account and travel long distances In the
search of enjoyment nd rest," he con-
tlnued. "Not so In Oregon City, as every
store, factory and shop In our town Is a
pleasure resort."
WILL CELEBRATE THREE DAYS.
Details Working Out Nicely for the Ore
gon City Firemen' Tournament.
The Oregon City Firemen's Tournament
and Fourth of July celebration will be
three days brimful of entertaining fea
tures, and the success of the approach
ing celebration In point of attendance and
interest becomes the more apparent as
the time passes.
It has ben decided positively to close
the contest for Goddess of Liberty at
7:30 o'clock P. M. tomorrow, Saturday,
evening, after which time there will not
be allowed to be deposited any more bal
lots. This will give the successful candi
date ample time to prepare for the event
and name her assistants.
The committees In charge have the
assurance from every section of the coun
ty that there will be a general turnout of
the people' of Clackamas county since
there is not to be held anywhere in the
county another celebration on Independ
ence Day. Visitors to the city should
come prepared to spend at least two of
the three days for the interesting pro
gramme of events has been distributed
over the three days.
Fire Chief McGlnnls has returned from
a visit to Albany and Salem and reports
that a great many people from up the
Valley are planning to visit this city for
the celebration.
Work has begun on the band stand and
Speaker's stand in the park and it would
be well for the people of the city to begin
decorating their places of business and
residences at once. Then the town will
be ready to receive the many visitors
when the celebration opens.

RURAL TELEPHONE LINES WILL
CONNECT WITH CITY.
Board of Trade Propose To Co-Operate
With Different 8ystems of
County.
Except their present plans are frustrat
ed, It will be but a short time until tha
farmers throughout Clackamas county,
who now enjoy the convenience of a rural
telephone service, will have the same
communication with the business men
and people of Oregon City. The prelimi
nary steps to that end are being taken by
the several Independent rural telephone
associations throughout the Interior of
the county.
Monday afternoon there was held at
Molalla a largely attended meeting of the
subscriber to the Molalla, Macksburg,
Carus and Beaver Creek systems and af
ter some discussion it was unanimously
voted to proceed with the constructing of
metallc circuit between Molalla and
Oregon City. This action was taken after
the meeting had been assured by J. U.
Campbell, of this city, who attended the
meeting as a representative of the Oregon
City Board of Trade, that the bualness
men of the city, backed up by the com
mercial organization, proposed to organ
ize a mutual telephone company for jthe
operation of a central office In this city
thu completing and extending the ser
vice of the rural lines into this city.
Dr. J. W. Thomas presided as chairman
of the meeting, L. W. Robblns being the
secretary. Addresses on the subject were
made by C. T. Howard. John P. Cole, C.
8. Spence, Mr. Insklpp and a number of
others. Finally on motion, the board
of directors of each of the individual as
sociation represented at the meeting waa
instructed to appoint one of Its members
who should be one of a committee that
is to hold a meeting at Molalla tomorrow.
Saturday afternoon, and conalder further
details of the proposition and devise the
best mean of progressing. In the same
connection, the following resolution was
adopted:
'Resolved, That It Is the sense of this
meeting that the bualness men of Oregon
City should organize a company, mutual
If possible, for the purpose of procuring
a franchise for telephone lines over the
streets of Oregon City for the purpose of
accommodating the different Independent
lines throughout the county, and that the
Independent lines should receive free
switching through the Oregon City cen
tral office for the use of all subscribers,
the free use of the subscribers' lines to
be allowed the business men of Oregon
City in return."
One member of the audience moved that
a vote of thanks be extended Mr. Camp
bell for the Interest he and the Board of
Trade had taken In the project, but be
fore the question could be stated by the
chairman, the motion was amended on
motion of J. P. Cole to state that "a vote
of thanks be extended the Oregon City
Board of Trade for the good Judgment
that had been shown in sending a repre
sentative to attend the meeting which
was of such great Importance to Oregon
City." The motion as amended waa car
ried In much laughter.
The various Independent rural telephone
companies have in the aggregate about
500 subscribers and the advantage that
would follow placing these people in di
rect communication with the people of
Oregon City can hardly be over-estimated.
By installing a metalic circuit be
tween Molalla and Oregon City and ex
tending the service to the subscribers on
the different lines, the major part of the
county can be reached in an instant from
this city. The proposed extension will
connect the following communities with
Oregon City: Molalla. Marquam, Macks
burg, Mulino, Colton. New Era, Canby,
ScotU Mills, Liberal. James, Carus, Wll
hoit and Shubel.
