THE 3IORXIXG OREGOXIAN, FRIDAY. JUNE 7, 1018. 9 EDITORS WILL VISIT PACIFIC NORTHWEST Annual Convention in 1919 to Be Held in British Columbia, Oregon and Washington. "ON WHEELS," IS PLAN Pacific Northwest Tourist Associa tion Sends Handsomely Engraved Invitations Bearing Scenes of Tliree Commonwealths. Next year the National Editorial As sociation will hold its annual conven tion in the international Pacific North west, visiting- and holding its sessions In turn in British Columbia, Washing ton and Oregon. Definite information to this effect was received yesterday afternoon by w. J Holmann, director and commis sioner of the Pacific Northwest Tour ist Association, from Hebert Cuthbert, secretary, who is now in Little Rock, Arkansas, attending the present session of the National Editorial Association. Favorable action was taken by the convention following the presentation of invitations to visit the international Pacific Northwest, made by the Pacific Northwest Tourist Association and by representatives of the editorial associa tions of British Columbia, Oregon and Washington. K. E. Brodie, of Oregon City, past president of the Oregon Editorial Asso ciation, accompanied Mr. Cuthbert to Little Rock and presented an Invita tion on behalf of the press of this state. Able Xcwupper Men Will Come. The acceptance of the invitation is a clear-cut victory for the enterprise of the Pacific Northwest Tourist Asso ciation and will bring to this section of the coast hundreds of the ablest newspapermen of the country to judge for themselves of the resources and advantages of the Northwest, and of the part it has taken in war activi ties. The convention "on wheels" plan, the novelty of which appears to have won instant favor with the National Editorial Association, will bring the newspapermen to each commonwealth in turn for one day of the session. Complete plans for their entertain ment in Portland will be taken up by the Pacific Northwest Tourist Asso ciation and the Oregon State Editorial Association. Handsomely engraved invitations, covering a large sheet of heavily cal endared paper and bearing half-tone reproductions of scenes in the three scenic commonwealths such as Shep herd's Dell, on the Columbia Highway, Crater Lake, Mirror Lake, in Rainier National Park, Mount Sir Robert Bor den, British Columbia were for warded by the Pacific Northwest Tourist Association to the National Editorial Association. These Invitations In text were as follows: Hearty Welcome Promised. "To the president and members of the National Editorial Association. Gentlemen: The Pacific Northwest Tourist Association, financed by the governments of Oregon and Washing ton, in the United States and the province of British Columbia, in Canada, has much pleasure, in conjunc tion, with the State Press Associations of Oregon and Washington, and the Provincial Press Association of British Columbia, in extending to you a most hearty invitation to hold your next convention in the international Pacific Northwest. "The entrance of the United States into the world's war, upon the side of the allies, has brought together the peoples of the two nations on the North American continent with one common object and has induced them to combine their resources and capabili ties in order to win the war. "The Pacific Northwest has come to realize the vastness of its wealth in natural resources and the ability of its people io use these resources to the very best advantage under the spur of necessity. "It has, within the short space of one year, established large steel shipbuild ing plants which have astonished the world and have made hitherto unknown records for speed in the turning out of ships. From its great forests have been cut hundreds of thousands of feet of the finest lumber to make airplanes. and to build wooden ships. Our lands and orchards have contributed ma terially to the food supply, while our fisheries have become an important factor in the saving of meat. Premier Position Held. "In its contribution of men for our armies and navies and in money for National loans and patriotic purposes, it is also in a premier position. "The Pacific Northwest offers as a future home for the returned soldier everything he could wish for the natural resources already brought to your attention, a country of. wonder ful scenery, noble rivers, inland lakes. National parks, majestic mountains and fertile valleys, together with a climate that is temperate the year round and in which outdoor work or recreation may l)e carried on every month in the year. "In inviting you to hold your next meeting, one day in British Columbia, one in Washington and one in Oregon, we are not only actuated by a desire to entertain you and have you amongst us, but to have you learn more of the Pacific Northwest from actual contact with our people and to realize by a personal visit its latent energies and natural resources, so that you may be better able to educate the public to a greater, appreciation of the extent, magnitude and wealth of their common heritage."

'Two Nice Clean Pigs" Are -Allowed to Run Loose. Canary Bird Spall Beauty Sleep mm Mysterious Koines Located. THE answer to the old conundrum that two pigs under a Kate make more noise than one echoed in Munic ipal Court yesterday when Mrs. Kate Daretk, living on Hood street, near the shipyard of the Coast Shipbuilding: Company, accused her neighbor, Mrs. Steve Gardner, of keeping: two head of swine within the city limits in violation of a special-ordinance. Mrs. Gardner admitted that she had two nice, clean, pigs at her home.' and retaliated by informing: the court- that Mrs. Dareck, her accuser, also was an owner of a pig. Mrs. Dareck said Mrs. Gardner's pigs were allowed to run loose, much to her discomfiture. It de veloped that both -women were raising chickens.' Judge Rossman continued the case for sentence on the promise that both women would keep their pigs and fowl penned up. The continual singing of a canary bird between the hours of 12 and 5 o'clock In the morning has ceased to be melodious, but rather has become odi ous to residents on Russell street, on the East Side, says Patrolman Rock well in. his report to Captain Jenkins, filed yesterday. The owner promised the officer that he would keep the bird In an enclosed part of the house here after and would see that the beauty sleep of bis neighbors would not be disturbed. Patrolman Talbert stood for two hours early the other morning at Thir ty-third and Vaughn -streets in a vain attempt to locate weird, and mysterious tappings. The peculiar noise sounded like someone hammering on a pipe at regular Intervals, a woman living in that vlcini'ty -had reported to Chief Johnson. Later the mystery was solved. It developed that an employe in a saw factory had gone to work early to get out a rush Job. LOOKOUT HOUSES ORDERED Forester Prepares to Guard Against X'Ires This Season.
