Oregon ploneerf thronged the Exposi
tion grounds yesterday, and viewed with
interest the wonderful buildings and ex
hibits that have been erected In memory
of the two explorers that first blazed
their way from the Mississippi River to
the Pacific Ocean, and made it possible
for the sturdy men of the Eastern States
to cross tKe plains and settle in the
great Northwest.
The vast wealth and resources that are
represented in the Exposition brought a
full . realization to the minds of the im
migrants of the 4Cs, of the part they
played In the development of the three
great commonwealths that were formed
out of thfr territory of the "Oregon Coun
try." Yesterday's gathering in the Auditorium
was probably the largest meeting of pio
neers that has been held for many a
year. The assembly hall held the biggest
crowd that has been within It doors
since the opening of the- Fair, and a con
servative estimate placed the number
present at 15(0. The gray-haired veter
ans presented a notable spectacle, as
sembled as they were, to celebrate the
33d annual reunion of their association
and to listen to th annual addresses of
those of their number.
President Goode's Address.
President W. T. Wright did not arrive
In time to preside over the opening cere
monies, and Captain O. C. Applegate,
1S43, took his place. Captain Applegato
came all the way from Klamath Falls
to nartlclnate in the exercises, "with the
characteristic energy of the other mem-
bers of his famous family.
Captain Applegate Introduced President
Goorte. who welcomed the pioneers with
the following words:
"It has been my pleasure and privilege
since the opening of the Exposition to ex
tend greetings to many different gather
ings, but before no audience have I felt
so thrilled and satisfied as before the
Pioneer Association of Oregon, which I
greet today. To you I extend a hearty
welcome. The Exposition la held primar
ily to celebrate the discovery of this
country. You pioneers of Oregon have
made this Exposition possible. We have
called together an exhibition of the re
sources of old Oregon with other states
of the Northwest. Wc have also a very
fine collection from abroad, and the Gov
ernment also ha.s helped by sending the
finest exhibits ever shown at any Expo
sition. "I wish also to compliment the State
of Oregon, whieh has taken a splendid
part In the Exposition and helped It by
making a large appropriation to carry on
the work. I trust that we shall have the
pleasure of seeing you with us many
times during the progress of the Exposi
tion, and again I bid you welcome, thrice
welcome.'
Captain Applcgate's Reply.
At the conclusion of Mr. Goode's re
marks Captain Applegate made the fol
lowing reply:
"On behalf of the pioneers of the
State of Oregon, we extend our
thanks to President Goode for his
hearty welcome to the Exposition.
The pioneers these noWe men and wom
en who planted hore the vanguard of
civilization are entitled to a full meed of
praise. Like the Pilgrims on the Eastern
Coa$t. they began an empire, and are to
be always remembered -with love." He
then quoted a poem in praise of the
pioneer spirit and the accomplishments
of the founders.
By this time President Wright had ar
rived and took the chair. Mr. Wright told
of his disappointment in not being able to
bring Moses Ive to the meeting, from
Eastern OregoH. Mr. Ijove Is more than
3(0 years old. and came to Oregon early
In the '30s. but hi? advanced age and the
fact that he Is rather infirm made' It Im
possible for him to be present at the
.gathering.
Other Speakers of the Day.
"I cannot claim much credit for myself
as a sturdy pioneer and homebuilder."
said President Wright, "for I was brought
here. Others had made up their minds on
the subject, and did hot consult my
wishes. The pioneers built here three
great states from the original Oregon.
Country, which, when I first saw It, was
nothing but jrreat forests and rolling
plains. Huge standing timber covered the
area of what is now Portland. Trails
we?e out through the forest. These trails
turned Into roads, and now -we have the
I anscontinental railways. We pioneers
are glad to be here, and wish to thank
you for the reception we have been
given."
Miss Imogen Harding, of Oregon City,
irreat grand-daughter of Samuel K. Bar
low, -of "Barlow Road" fame, sang "Annie
Laurie. and followed this with "Ben
Bolt." Both selections were received with
hearty appreciation by the audience.
President Wright Introduced Mrs. M. L.
Myrick, grand-daughter of Dr. Jobn Mc
Loughlln. one of th foremost of the build
ers of -Oregon. Mrs. Myrirk received a
hearty welcome from the audience, many
of whom were Intimately acquainted with
Dr. McLaughlin, ami profited by his gen
erosity and hospitality In early day.
"Joe Bowers of Pike" was rtcited by '
President Wright, and the piece recalled
other day. to the audience. Finally, with
the music of Ike National anthem, the
meeting came to a close and the veterans
departed for another year.
AT THE WASHINGTON BUILDING

The local Shrine. Al Kader Temple. Is
one of the largest and best-organized
Shrine Temples west of Chicago. Its mem
bership is made up of many of the most
representative men of Oregon. Members
of Al Kader Temple will act as a guard
ef honor tonight in the great parade ar
ranged for the benefit of the many visit
ing Shrine delegations who are now In
Portland.
In keeping with the traditions of the
Masonic order, it Is seldom lhat members
of any Shrine Temple re seen on public
parade. But once before In the history
of the local Shrine have the members
marched through the streets of Portland.
The parade tonight has been arranged as
an honor and a courtesy to the hundreds
of visiting Shriners who wllLbe In Port
land today, in addition to this, the rep
resentative local Shriners, in arranging
for today's events, have been prompted
by a desire to contribute. In their modest
way. to the features of Exposition year,
features that contribute so largely to the
interest and the pleasure of the many
different visiting detentions that will
come to the great Fair before the gates
finally .close on October IS next.
ii U cenerallv understood, the differ
ent Shrine Temples are neither within the
jurisdiction, nor under the control of any
of the Masonic governing bodies of the
country. The aims of Masonry generally
are wholly serious. The Inspiration for
accomplishment In the Shrine Is found In
tho strength of the social tie that forms
the links which bind together the broth
erhood of man generally. The Shrine Is
Masonic Just this far: only high Masons,
those who have either attained the thirty
second degree or the uniformed rank of
the Commandery. are eligible for mem
bership In the Shrine bodies. Members of
the Shrine have all passed the severe
ordeal of the different degrees of Masonry.
The traditions and history of the Shrine
are Masonic to this extent only. The
pleasures of the Shrine In ceremonial ses
sion are distinctively Its own.
The parade tonight will be an event in
the Shrine history of Portland. Chief
Hunt has designated two solid platoons
of mounted police, who will march with
the Nobles, and who will keep order
throughout the line of march. One of the
three strong local bands engaged for the
march will be placed Immediately. In
front of tha novitiates who will brave the
dangers of crossing the hot sands of the
desert at tonight's ceremonial session.
The Inspiring strains of the patriotic and
other tuneful airs of this band will call
for the rising enthusiasm of these novi
tiates, as they slowly wend their way to
the temple of mirth and laughter. But
as the doors of the Armory close on the
marching legions, and the solemn tones
of that classic Ir, "There Will Be a Hot
Time In te Old Town Tonight." strike
the ear of the candidates, there wilt come
to the minds of the reflective among tho
novitiates the thought that all the se
rious issues are not met In the dally
walks of life: and that the rocky road to
Perdition Is not the only rough path man
is called upon to follow In his wander
ings through the byways of this terres
trial sphere, as distinguished from the
promise of the celestial.
