"With "words of praise on their lips
for everything porta tiling to the Lewis
and Clark Exposition, Portland and
Oregon, the members of the National
Editorial Association boarded their
special train at the L2nlon Depot at 9
o'clook last night and. a few minutes
later were being hurried over the O.
R. & N. towards Salt Lake, whore they
will make tho first stop. The editor
were glad to tart on their liomeward
Journey but nevertheless they regret
ted tnat thsy could remain only three
Jays' in Portland. They would rather
have skipped some of the other places
of interest they visited so that they
could have seen more of the Exposition.
Needless to say the newspaper men
were dolighted with Portland and the
Exposition. While they are loyal to
Oklahoma, where they held their an
nual convention, they consider their
visit to Portland as the most enjoy
able of all. Of course. Portland had a
big advantage over Guthrie in the en
tertainment of .the noted newspaper
man because of the Exposition. The
large majority of the visitors had at
tended the previous expositions hold in
the United Stat oh, but nevertheless the
Wetern World's Fair was a revelation
to them.
i Pleased "With Exposition.
The universal opinion was that the
Portland Fair is as noar perfect as an
Exposition can be. They said that the
St. Louis Fair was entirely too oxton
slve. "The exhibits in Portland are
equal in every rospoct. It not superior,
to those of St. Louis, but are more com
pact, and oaslcr to see, said the editors
bofore leaving for home. They were
unable thoroughly to see the Exposi
tion, owing to their short visit but said
they saw enough of it to satisfy them
selves that It was worthy of their sup
port. The successful entertainment of tho
membors of the National Editorial As
sociation is h great source of gratili
catlon among the officials, as they ex
erted all their influence in making the
visit of the editors enjoyable. As nearly
So papors were represented in the con
tingent, it moans that the Exposition
will bo advertised as never before since
its inception. There will be very few of
the papers represented that will not de
vote column after column to descrip
tive articles relating to the Exposi
tion. The large dailies of the country
have been very liberal in advertising
the Lewis and Clark Exposition, but it
has been more difficult to obtain the
same attention from the smaller pub
lications. The National Editorial Asso
ciation is composed mostly of men rep
resenting small daily and weeky pub
lications. Tho special train goes from Port
land to Salt Lake, where the members
will remain not more than two days.
From Salt Lake the editors go to Den
ver whore the special train is aban
doned, the differont members going di
rect from Denver to their respective
homes. Several score of the visitors
spent yesterday at The Dalles leaving
Portland early in the morning. Al
though escvoral excursions were ar
ranged for the visiting newspaper men.
they did not prove to be very popular
as moat of the members of the associa
tion were content to remain in Portland
booing the Exposition.
Words of Commendation.
"I consider the Portland Fair as the
most satisfactory of all the exposi
tions," remarked J. Irvin Steol, trees
urer ef the National Editorial Associa
tion, yesterday afternoon on the ve
randa of the American Inn, resting
after his visit to the various bulldngs.
rPortland has been aided, to a groat
extent by Nature herself. It seems as
though tne grounds and landscape were
made by Nature for the especial use of
the Lewis aad Clark Exposition.
"Thon the buildings, electrical illu
miaatlen and the exhibits were won
derfnlly attractive. I feel satisfied that
all tho montbers fell compensated for
their trip across the plains to Portland.
We have been royally entertained since
ur arrival and feel very grateful to the
Exposition management and the people
f Portland. It has been said that every
member of our party has met relatives
tiace we have been at the Exposition."
continued Mr. Steel. "Our "Western, rela
tives have made it a point to be at the
Fair when we were here.
Mr. Steel is from Ashland, Pa., where
lie edits the Daily Telegram, a paper
of large circulation and powerful in
fuenoe. Mr. Steel has edited and owned
a newspaper ever since ae was 18 years
of age. lie is a man past middle age.

Exposition is unbounded, which is
shared by all the aembors of the party.
particularly William A Ashbrook, sec
retary of the organization.
"Speaking for myself I hall say the
people of the West have every reason
to be proud of Portland for the resaark-
abe achievement that the Lewis and
Cark Exposition has proved to be." en
thusiastically remarked Mr. Ash brook
yestorday. "I hardly expected to lind
such a niagniticent Exposition as this
anywhere outside of the thickly-populated
states in the East. Of course. I
cannot speak for all the members of the
association, but all those I have talked
with arts as pleased with the Fair as I
am. You can eafely count on the Expo
sition receiving an enormous amount
of exploitation when each returns to
his heme once more to taite up the
burdens of a newspaper man.
BY CANOE FItCttI THE EAST
How n Pennsylvania Lad Is Coming
to the Exposition.
An IS-year-eM Pennsylvania lad has
essaved to make the trip frera his
Eastern home to the Portland Exposi
tion In a steol canoe, ahd is now pad
dling industriously along - the Ohio
River. He Intends to make his way
into the Mississippi, thonce to the
headwaters of the Missouri, aad on
into the Snake in Montana. From the
Snake he will find his way late the
Columbia, and thence up the Willam
ette to Portland. This is the route he
has laid out. and which he has already
been following for two weeks.
The bey is Lindsay Kerby, f Cheat
haven, Pa., HHfi the unique Journey is
based oh a wager of Slfte and the
youth's desire to see the country. A
communication received yesterday by
the Exposition Prose Bureau, from
Wheeling, W. Vs., states that the boy
has reached that place in the best of
spirits, after having navigated the
Cheat. Monongahela and Ohio rivers.
While oampee on an island seuth of
Rochester a few days ago, he was held
up and robbed of SI by river pilots.
His boat is of steel, with an air-tight
compartment at each end. which pre
vents it from sinking. A peddle and
a small sail are the motive power, and
if the young man manages to complete
the long and arduous Journey upon
which he .has embarked, he will have
accomplished a noteworthy feat.
LTBERATTS BAND ARRIVES.
Plays In the Afternoon and Evening
nt Gray Boulevard.
Signer A LI be rati, accompanied by
4S members of hie band aad three solo
ists, arrived la Portland yesterday
morning, and began his series of con
certs at tae Exposition, playing in the
afternoon and evening in tne Gray
boulevard bandstand.
The slngors who are with Signer
Li be rati are Miss Catherine" Ktarer,
Miss Marie Valdes and Bernard Begue.
Miss Klarer is an American girl, grad
uate of the Cincinnati Conservatory,
and a musician of rare ability. Miss
Valdes and Mr. Begue are Italians of
prominonce, and sing only in their own
language.
Signor Liberatl has been In Port
land before, playing for three seasons
at the Northwest Industrial Exposi
tion several years ago. He has always
had a warm spot la his heart for the
Rose City, and la the course of an in
terview said yesterday:
"I am always glad to get back to
Portland. I like the city very muoh
and feel that I am welcomed here
when I oome. My band Is in excellent
condition, and will play to Portland air
dionccs for a month."
Large crowds gathered at the two
concerts yesterday, and welcomed Sig
ner Liberatl and his musicians with
scnerous applause. This evening's pro
gramme will include many Wagnerian
selections from "NIeberlungen," Tann
hausor." "Parsifal," "Lohengrin" and
"The Song to the Evening Star." During
the afternoon programme, "11 Trova
tore," "La Travlata" and the "Flower
Seng" will be played by tho band.
SILVERTOX BAND IS COMING
It Will Bo Entertained at Homer
Davenport's Farm.
The Fourth of July celebration is
now complete. The Sllverton band Is
coming to town to spend the day.
That rural musleal organization,
which Homer Davenport has immor
talized, is still" very much in exist
ence, despite the IS years which, have
passed si nee it was organized with
Mr. Davenport as the snare-drum per
former. It has a reputation for play
ing, good music, too, and after IS years
ef practice since Mr. Davenport was
with it. the players have become able
to start pretty much together, run
within a bar or two of one another
through any piece they may attempt
and finish very nearly neck and neck.
The uniforms, too. have been revised
since the days when Mr. Davenport
was forced to take three steps before
either leg of his pantaloons moved an
lfwh Of Mvrii thnr Ik nn nu fnr
Mr. Liberatl to become envious as far
as competition in classical airs is con
cerned, but whea it comes down to
genuine old-fashioned music, the Sll
verton band has the reputation of be
ing able to go some. There Is a new
manipulator ot the littlo drum now,
but he will no doubt yield that im
portant position to the charter member
of the band, who has been hapless
enough to become separated from the
band through becoming entangled in
caricature, ornithology, fame and one
thing and another.
During their stay in the city the
members of the band will be -entertained
by Mr. Davenport on the Daven
port farm at the Exposition.
Women, from their sedentary habits, are
often subject to headache and constipa

BRAVELY STOPS RUNAWAY.
At the Risk or His Life, S. J. Rich
Grabs tho Reins.
S. J. Rich, a laborer employed at the
Exposition grounds, took his life In bis
hands, yesterday afternoon, to offset a
danger that was threatening women and
children along the TralL He is now in
the emergency hospital with a broken leg
and severe Internal hurts, but to his
bravery is doe the fact that several per
sons were not injured by a runaway along
the boulevard leading to the Trail from
tho bandstand early in the afternoon.
A pair of heavy horses, with a lumber
wagon behind them, got away from their
driver, and were going at the top of their
speed, scattering people right and left
It was seen that when the runaway struck
the Trail an accident could hardly be
avoided. Frank Eberle. of the Exposition
Press Bureau, tried to seize the horses

barely In time to escape the wheels. When

IOWA TEACHERS ATtfUVE-
Vlslt tho Exposition and Plan Trip
Up Columbia.
Portland, the hostess of the people of
the world, was treated to a surprise yes
terday morning, when 0 Iowa school
teachers arrived In the city and placed
their names on the roster of the thou
sands of guests who are m Portland on K
visit to the Exposition. Portland has en
entertalned the members of numerous or
ganizations and excursion parties, but not
uatll yesterday has the elty been visited
by a delegation of the Amerieaa peda
gogues. The party will remain in Pert
taad for three days, at least, and K may
be that the stay will be extended.
The party is in eharge ef 2. C Thorn
burg. County Superiateadeat of Schools,
of Des Moines. Ia. Mr. Thoraburg was
instrumeatal in organizing the exeurslon
and is managing the itinerary of the par
ty. Most ef the members ef the party
are teachers in the pubHe seheis ef Des
Moines, aad are in Portland en their an
nual excursion. Today they take a trip
up the Columbia River on the 'steamer
Bailey Gatzert Saturday they wilt spend
en the Exposition grounds, leaving that
night at 11 o'clock for Puget Sound. After
a short visit to the Washington cities they
will go up m British Columbia.
School teachers are said to travel more
than any ether class of people who work
for a living. In the Summer they usually
have a three months vacation, during
which they go on an excursion. They
nearly always travel In a body, as it
greatly redeces the expenses ef the trip.
It is understood that Portland will be vis
ited by many parties of schoolteachers
during the Summer. The information bu
reaus have been receiving for some time
communications frera schoolteachers In
ail parts ef the United States who are
coming to the Exposition in parties. Most
ef the pedagogues will visit the Exposi
tion in July, as in August they be&ln to
prepare for the opening ef school.
Surreys on the tSbrth Bank.
Engineers of the O. R. & N. are new
engaged in making a survey ef the prop
erty owned by that company along the
north bank of the Columbia. River, from
Cascade. Wash., to a point about eight
miles above the Government werk at Cas
cade Locks. General Manager O'Brien
' stated last evening that the survey had
been ordered as a means of correcting
! records of the company concerning the
w- 1
eulred by its present owners under the
ViKard management and abandoned fol
lowing the completion ef the O. R. & N.
down, the south bank of the river. Mr.
O'Brien is authority for the statement
that no ether significance attaches to the
survey, which will be eempleted within a
few days.
