THREE BLOCKS OF ROSES City BaVk Board Lukewarm Toward Festival Association Plan. A special meeting, of the City Park Board was held yesterday morning for the purpose of considering the proposal of the Rose Carnival officials that the city plant roses in the park blocks. The idea did not meet with the favor ex pected, and the result was that out of 19 blocks, but three were set aside for roses. ' They are those between Ankeny and Burnside, Salmon and Main and one to be selected further south. The Rose Carnival Association was represented by B. B. McFarland, presi dent; B. W. Rowe, F. V. Holman, Dr. Emmett Drake, F. Dresser, and William McMurray, who were unanimous in re questing the Park Board .to set aside the city park blocks for the planting of roses, preferably Caroline Testouts. It was urged also that the board name a date in February to be known as "rose planting day," which, it was argued, would be a fine advertisement for Port land. The committee said that if the board" would set aside the blocks, the car nival management would assist in caring for the roses. After discussing the proposal at length, the members of the board decided that the matter was too much of an experi ment to warrant a very heavy outlay or tho setting aside of anywhere near all the park blocks, and therefore agreed to give over but three blocks for the pur pose.

Dis- Mr. Joseph Gaston has become a can didate for the office of Railroad Commis sioner in the Second Congressional Dis trict. He is well known to many citizens of the state and has taken an active part in so many directions in developing the resources of the state, and creating pub lic opinion on political and economic ques tions as to be ranked as one of the state builders," and entitled to consideration at this time. Mr. Gaston is a native of Belmont County, Ohio, and worked on a farm until 20 years of age. Was 'educated at the public schools of the county, and taught country schools in Winter season. Studied law and was admitted to practice by the Supreme Court of Ohio. Settled In Oregon In 1863; working first in the placer mines near Jacksonville. Practiced law at Jacksonville In 1863-4. Took up the proposition of connecting Oregon and California by railroad, and made the first railroad survey from the California line to Portland in 1864. Pre pared a report of the survey and a "Re port on the Resources of Oregon," the first ever made, and laid them before Congress and upon which the land grant to the Oregon & California Railroad was made in 1S66. Organized "The Oregon Central Railroad Company" in 1867 to build the road under the above grant: was made president and general manager of the road and commenced the work of construction at Portland, April 15, 1868. Visited Washington in the Winter of 1869 70 and secured another land grant (the last grant in aid of railroads made by Congress) in aid of a railroad from Port land to McMinnville. with a branch from Forest Grove to Astoria, and remained with the. company until its road was com pleted to the Yamhill River. The acts of Congress granting these lands were both amended at the instance of Mr. Gas ton restricting sales of the land to actual settlers at a price not to exceed $2.50 per acre; and although they covered grants to the extent of over 5,000,000 acres he never took an acre of the land or a dol lar of their proceeds. In 1878 he organized the Dayton, Sheri dan & Dallas Railroad Company, and built the first 40 miles of narrow gauge railroad in Oregon. And on this start the road was further extended on the east and west sides of the Willamette Valley "by William Reed and others un til 200 miles of road were built: and thus making Gaston's railroad work practically the v foundation of- the railroad develop ment of the Willamette Valley and Southern Oregon. His connection witn railroads ceased in 1880. In 1863-4 Mr. Gaston edited the Jackson ville Sentinel, the first Republican paper published in Southern Oregon. In 1865-6 he edited the Oregon Statesman for near ly two years. In 1873-4-5 he edited the Portland Daily and Weekly Bulletin for two years. In 1888-9 he edited the Port land Dally News for nearly year. All of these papers were supporters of the Republican party In Oregon. . In 1865, in connection with the Hon. John 'Mlnto, Mr. Gaston published the Oregon Agriculturist, one of the first farm journals printed on the Pacific Coast. In 1872 he edited the Willamette Farmer of Salem for one year. In 18S8-9 he edited and published the Pacific Far mer (now published by Frank t,ee) for two years. . In -392-3-4-5 he edited and published The Farmers Journal" of Port land. All of these publications were de voted to the Interests of the farmers and producing classes, and to such reforms as the Australian ballot, postal savings banks, and direct law-making by the peO' pie; and besides this newspaper work he has contributed frequently to the Oregon Historical Quarterly and other maga zines. By appointment of the State Land Board in 1872 Mr. Gaston successfully prosecuted a case through the Circuit and Supreme Courts of the state, and through the Land Department of the ijnited States to final decision by the Secretary of tbe Interior, to settle the title of the state to its swamp lands, involving more than a million acres of lands which, considering the legal principles and subject matter Involved, was the most important law suit ever tried in Oregon. From 1880 to 18S5 Mr. Gaston was engaged in the prac tice of law at Portland with ex-Senator James K. Kelly. From 1870 to 189S Mr. Gaston owned and cultivated a large farm in Washington County and on which the town of Gas ton is built, and where he expended a large amount of money in draining Wap pato Lake; and is now engaged in fruit raising in the Hood River District. He has visited and Investigated the resources of nearly every county in the state, and Is now president of the Oregon Borax Company engaged in developing the soda, nitrate and borax deposits of the ancient lakes of Southeastern Oregon. He has long been a member of the Grange. In his petition for nomination Mr. Gaston commits himself to' the following propo sition: 1 "If I am nominated and elected Rail road Commissioner I will as such Com missioner, during my term of office, vote and act to enforce the Railroad Commis sion law with fairness, justice and impar tiality to all interests, persons, places, corporations and railroads; and, as the volume of freight and travel increases, use my authority and influence, as far as lawful, to reduce the cost and increase the facilities of railroad transportation within the limits of giving to the rail roads a fair and reasonable net income on their necessary cost; and promote the extension of railroads to Central Oregon and all other parts of the state."
