PAIN HEAD OF COMMERCIAL CLUB
. (Continued from page .one.)
Rogers a Carlyle Saw Him.
Carlyle gives this striking picture of
Samuel Rogers, the poet: "I saw Rog
ers awhile ago at dinner with Taylor,
a half frozen, old, sardonic Whig gen
tleman; no bair at all. but one of the
whitest bare scalps; blue eyes, shrewd,
sad and cruel; toothless, horeshoe
mouth drawn up to the very nose;
siow, croaking, sarcastic Insight, per
' feet breeding staterooms where you
are welcomed even with flummery; in
ternally a Bluebeard's chamber, where
none but the proprietor enters!"
reached an open determination to sell
out and disband. Your officers then
multiplied their' efforts, and, with
determination to maintain the club.
they with the assistance of most of J
the members have, during the past
year, reconstructed the foundation of
this club until now no human effort
will ever avail to harm it or lessen its
influence or the loyalty or enthusiasm
of its members.
Now we have within the completes t
harmony. And the community has,
through the workings of the club,
become more tolerant and harmonious
than ever before during the long per
iod of my life here.
And I can now see at a time not far
distant a membership of a thousand
within, and a aolid community with
out, working with a conviction that
in our county and city, as in all other
places and matters, the greatest
strength is in union.
At this time I wish to say that to
me our progress and our accomplish
ed results of the past year have been
most satisfactory, and that this is
the result of persistent labor of a set
of officers as good-excepting, of
course, your president, who is out of
mind as have ever handled any prop
osition, and amongst these are a few
whose remarkable work ought to have
special mention. These latter I shall
not name as their modesty prompted
them to request that they be not men
tioned. If, then, I shall say anything
that shall seem to be a criticism, do
you remember that it will be given
in a spirit of friendliness, and only
because it happens to be my duty at
this time to speak of these matters.
Of the thing3 we have done during
the past year, the greatest is that
which I have heretofore spoken of
infused a greater harmony into the
members of this community. After
that we have made such progress
within as to make the club a per
manent institution which shall wield
influence for good during the rest of
time. -
In addition to these things, we have
nromoted the following matters and
done the following things: At a small
expense to the club we have distrib
uted 70,000 trout in the streams of
he county; organized the Capital
Highway Association, and through it
and other services promoted the cause
of good roads in our state and coun
ty, and in this matter have attained
or accomplished much; gave Booster
Day and Horseshow which was an
unalloyed success and aided distribution-
of good feeling . through the
county particularly. In this connec
tion it seems to me well to say to
you that to the surprise and chargin
of the officers too many of our mer
chants seemed to knock the efforts
of the club, and we are consoled only
by the fact that these were in a de
cided minority. More than that some
men in business here took every ad
vantage they could of the visitors
wnne they were our guests. And I
here recommend that on a similar oc
casion hereafter these men, some at
least of whom are known, be com
pelled to be good or be made known
to those who come to assist us. We
have worked in harmony with Jen
nings Lodge Community Club and oth
ers to get better rates on the inter
urban line and seem to have been
worsted by neglect of those having
the matter immediately in charge, or
by the conditions as they appealed
to the Railroad . Commission. All
changes seem to favor Portland and,
with one exception or two, to work
to ,the disadvantage of Oregon City.
We have induced the introduction
of a bill in Congress to appropriate
$75,000 for a federal building at Ore
gon City, and at this time there ap
pears to be a prospect of obtaining
such building.
We have finally obtained a lease
from the owner of the building, which
has been done after three years of
effort, and which insures us this good
home for a long period.
We sent thirty-five delegates to Sa
lem and made the East Side route of
the Pacific Highway a fact.
Much important work has been done
and we believe important results ac
complished in pushing the matter of
the locks and the dredging of the
rapids at the mouth of the Clackamas
River. Constant communication has
been had with our representatives In
Congress, data obtained and forward
ed, information given these men and
the United States engineers and in a
few words, all things we knew of
have been done to gain for the com
munty and the Willamette Valley an
open river and a le3s onerous freight
charge.
We have, as perhaps you all know,
rearranged the Club rooms and by
the change have made them much
more attractive and inviting. Such a
condition of attractiveness have we
put our rooms into, that visitors from
a distance have expressed sincere sur
prise at what the club, affords Its
members. :
Here has been for the year, a quant
ity of literature provided for those
of literary tastes, and those seeking
the world's news as well as for those
who have An Life and such publica-1
tions desired to forget the monotony
of business or professional life by
excursions into the humorous.
There is organized what may be
called the Terminal Association which
is endeavoring to procure terminal
rates in or for our city. Prospects are
now bright - for the accomplishment
of the purpose of this organization.
Our third annual banquet was held
in March at a time when the ardor
of too many had cooled, and, though
it aided in the reconstruction that I
have mentioned, it was not what our
next will be. "
The gymnasium has been maintain
ed during the year and many mem
bers have had the advantage of its
use. Perhaps the greatest use made
of it, however, has' been by the foot
ball boys .
There has been organized by our
efforts a real, enthusiastic, adherent
band and orchestra. We expect nev
er again to hear the remarks in de
rision that we have so often heard
directed toward the Oregon City Band.
In the line of advancement of har
mony we" have a. smoker on June 22 .
Many of us were made more inclined
to devote time to the betterment of
the community by the influence of
these meetings and the sentiments ex
pressed in the talks made on these
occasions. I believe these get-together
occasions of the greatest import
ance. We have assisted the Oregon City

firmly founded. More than one hun
dred patrons visit the library daily,
and we have just" learned that ar
rangements are about made to re
ceive from Andrew Carnegie $12,500
to construct a building upon a per
manent site. Through this institu
tion those living within about two
miles of the center of the city may
become informed upon almost any
subject through- the technical book3,
and are able to have the advantage
derived from the standard literature
of the world. I hope those who are
present, but who have not acquainted
themselves with the library, will do
so at once, and then will make every
body else likewise acquainted; after
which I am hopeful the daily atten
dance will become a thousand instead
of one "hundred.
We had the honor and the great
pleasure of entertaining the road su
pervisors of this county in conjunc
tion with the County Court. If we
accomplished what we sought, the re
lations between the city and the coun
ty were made closer and more har-
oucn occasions contain
vosBiuiuues or doing wholesome good
that few others have.
As you see, we have made a bad bil
liard table into a good pool table, and
this change has already been shown
to be one of wisdom.

farmer of the neighborhood drove Into
St. Albans on market day In a little
car drawn by four hogs. Having tour
ed the market place three or four times
amid popular applause, he put his ani
mals up in a stable, did his marketing
and drove off again to the accompani

make them shy. It -had taken him
