Governor Speaks in Joking: Vein
When Addressing Scribes at
Dinner Inder Trees.
SALEM. Or.. Aug. 10. (Special.)
Escorted into the city by" a squadron
of array airplanes, editors from many
parts of the United States traveling
with the National Editorial association
party for a visit to Crater lake, arrived
in Salem this evening, and were wel
comed by Governor Olcott.
As the train bearing the party of
editors was leaving Chemawa station
two of the great army birds rose in
the distance, circled high above the
train and then followed above it to
Salem. Members of the party who
crowded to the windows of the cars
to watch the planes believed that the
aviators were orf for an inspection of
Uncle Sam's forests, and did not real
ize until later that the event, had been
arranged as a surprise welcome by the
committee in charge of the entertain
ment of the editors in Salem.
Major Doe StuntH.
As the visitors alighted from the
train at the station and walked across
the statehouse lawn to the shady spot
to the west of the capitol "building
where a luncheon had been spread for
them, the army pilots continued to
circle above them, to turn loops, to
plunge and rise and go through ail the
fctunts known to aeronautical science.
Major Albert D. Smith, in charge of
the air service forest patrol in the
state, guided one of -the army planes,
and on one occasion put his great yel
low machine through what appeared to
be four consecutive loops, little more
than skimming the treetops as he
straightened out to go flying over the
crowd.
The welcome from the air, which is
the first of the kind accorded the edi
tors since they began their journey
from Chicago, was arranged by the
Salem Commercial club, state officials
and Major Albert Smith jointly, and
during the picnic dinner the planes
dropped small hand bills down upon
the visitors, reading as follows:
Welcome Drop From SIvieM.
"Marion county, Salem and the air
service of the state forestry patrol wel
come the X. K. A. to Salem. Pilots;
Major Albert I. Smith, Lieutenant K.
C. Kiel, Lieutenant "W. C. tjoldsborough.
Lieutenant K. C. Hatton, Lieutenant C.
N. Ridenour, Lieu tenant A. Goodrich,
Sergeant C. A. Lajotte, Sergeant Frank
McKee."
"It is not often that I have had the
opportunity to tell editors what I
think of them.' said Governor Olcott in
welcoming the editorial party to Ore
gon. "1 frequently think that editors
like to work about '24 hours a day to
tell those in public office what they
think of them, but it is not often that
the office holders have the opportunity
to reply.
"I am more than glad to welcome
you editors, who come from many
points in the United States. You repre- I
sent the best thought of the land and
you play a powerful part in guiding
public sentiment and opinion. 1 am j
glad to count among some of my best i
friends editors and reporters and others
of the newspaper profession. I want
to speak a word for the reporters. I ;
have found them honest and fair and
loyal to their paper to a decree not j
often found with men of any profes-
eion.
(iovrrnnr i Cheered.
"Oregon, we take pride in believing. :
Is a land of wonderful resources and
wonderful prom i sc. "We a re glad to
have you come here, and, if I may use
the phrase, 'give us the once over. We
are more than glad to welcome you."
Governor Olcott was accorded three
rousing cheers by the editors upon the
completion of his address. He, with
M rs. olcott, will accompany the part y
from Salem to Crater lake and return.
Oregon Man TonNtninntrr.
G. L. Caswell, publisher of the Bulle
tin, Bloomfield. la..- and a member of
the executive committee of the National
Kditorial association, responded for the
visiting editors and expressed the
pleasure which all felt in making the
stop in Maleni. Today was the f i rst
time, Mr. Caswel declared, that their
party had ever had to be watched from
the sky in coming into a city lor a
visit.,
K. K. Brodie of Oregon City, member
of the executive committee of the Na
tional association from the northwest,
acted as toast mast or for the occasion.
A meal of Salem products, including
sandwiches of several kinds. Oregon
fruit j uices, salads and ice cream, was
served on tables which had been placed
underneath the trees of the state house
lawn. The Salem Women's clubs had
charge of serving the dinner, while the
entire entertainment programme in
Salem was under the direction of the
Salem. Commercial club, with Secretary
IcCroskie as cha irman.

Order Klnally Restored.
Order once more restored, the wait
ers gathered around the camp organ,
lost, strayed or stolen perhaps from
some Salvation Army gathering", and
struck up a special! v number, dedicated
to the editors and sung to the tune of

"I'apa papa papa is an editor; papa
p;t ia listen to his paper roa r" and
"Mamma Mamma, her joh is to run the
press. Mamma mamma, she does all
the work, I guess." The singing was led
by .Walter Jenkins of the Y. M. C. A.,
who also was persuaded to give a solo
and lead his troupe through several
comic n inn bei s. Their efforts were
aided by a ukelele artist.
He fore the party returned to the
automobiles Y. J. Hof mann, chairman
of the general reception committee,
mounted a platform and introduced to
the audience the men responsible for
the picnic. Among them were Judge
Kanzlcr; Ira L. Hi ges, president of the
Victory Hose Festival ; Forest Super
visor Sherrard; Ranger Weisendanger,
who is in charge of Kagle creek park;
Mrs. Weisendanger. and Frank Hilton,
who was dubbed "leader of the 1. V.
V Mr. Hilton paid a tribute to Judge
Kanzler and Air. Sherrard and pre
sented the former with a gift he had
found left on one of the tables a
nickel. Others called to the platform
were Henry Heyek, builder of the
Larch-mountain trail; Fred Kiser, pres
I ident of the Trails club; Perry Kitz-
miller, who barbecued the bears; "Bob"
Steward, who directed the Rotary club
machines and Henry Thiele, the chef.
The Frenchman wore a label "J ust
Henry." and when he mounted the steps
he carried an Indian robe, the gift of
the Rotary club, which he has ban
queted ma ny a time.
"1 like it so well," he said, gazing
at the blanket, "I'm going to hang on
to it."

R. K. Clan ton, master fish warden.
who supplied the mountain trout for
the breakfast, also responded. He lat-
was host to the party at the Bonne
ville hatchery, where his entire staff
provided entertainment for the vis
itors by exhibiting the curiosities of
the place and feeding the fish.
H. W. Kent, secretary of the Cater
ers association, who handled the ban
quet at Laurelhurst park, was also
introduced.
The principal speaker was Judge
Georgj; Staple ton, who claimed to be j
presefn "in order to furnish the hot air
for the occasion."
"As this is a non -judicial day," he
remarked jovially, "you need not fear
that I shall commit you to prison for
anything I have seen you do this
morning."
"Evfythine that has been served to
you," he continued in a serious vein,
is the product of this state. The
trails, tables, water and clearing for
the parking of automobiles have been
put here by the forest service to make
Ithis one of the playgrounds of the
state.

He refe: red to the "grand opera

landers are just as good cooks and
waiters as they are busir.ess men, and
some a lot bet ter."
In behalf of the National Kditorial
associa ion Will W ilke of VJray Kagle,
-Minn., responded with words of praise
for the reception given the con vent ion
in Portland. He particularly thanked
Mr. Hofmann for his efforts to bring
the party west and make its visit a
success.
Woman) Dream Realized.
Not a few of the visitors openly ex
pressed satisfaction over the excursion.
One woman ad in ltted that It had been
the ambition or her childhood to sit
out in the woods and eat mountain
trout, and that she had never dreamed
it won Id be real ized.
The frequent remark during the meal
that "everything's going right" was
answered again and again with "going
right," and the food surely was.
They thought another man waB about
to make a speech when he rose on a
rock to view the scene. "Friends,
Romans, countrymen," he began, but at
this point somebody who had just come
from the vicinity of the smoking bear
pit, interjected, "We came to bury the
bear, not to praise him."
Stream "Divinely Troolful."
Benjamin S. Odell. editor of the
Printer - Journalist of Chicago, gazed
out over the rippling stream with sat
isfaction as he remarked. "This is the
last word ; divinely troutf ul." Wallace
Odell of Tarry town, N. Y.. expressed
his opinion with, "You people have the
privilege of going on living here, but
we have to go back to the Hudson only
to exist."
Willard K. Carpenter of Lincoln, 111.,
gave up. "I wouldn't try to say any
thing." he declared. "There aren't
superlatives enough in my vocabulary
to express my feelings."
The return trip to Portland was made
in time for the editors to board their
southbound special at 4:30. The first
stop on their bOO-mile trip by train and
automobile through the Willamette,
Umpqua and Rogue River valleys to
Crater lake, was at Salem, where they
were guests of the Commercial club at
the state capital from 6:30 to 8:30 last
night. They were welcomed by Gov
ernor Olcott and taken for dinner to
the club rooms.
Parly ow In Medford.
This morning at 6:30 the party will
arrive in Medford, where breakfast will
be served before machines are boarded
for Crater lane, where the visitors will
remain over night, returning to the
valley the following morning. They
will then be entertained with dinner at
Lithia park. The train will leave Tues
day night from Ashland on the return
trip to Portland. A stop will be made
here Wednesday morning for break
fast at the Multnomah hotel before the
party proceeds to Tacoma.

by the Citizens' club and the women of

speakers was Albert Tozier of Hood
River. r.
In 1S83 Albert Tozier and H. C. May
field founded the Chehalis Nugget. In
reminiscent vein Mr. Tozier recalled
the vicissitudes of pioneer newspaper
vork in southwest Washington. In
tragic tone he told how, shortly after
the Nugget was launched, he had mold
ed a new roller for the primitive type
of press they used in those days. The
roller tame from the i:ast in good
shape and was set outside to "cure" for
a while in the open air.
Herd laws then were unknown in
Chehalis, and the thriving city that to
day does not permit even chickens to
run at large, then permitted cows.
hogs, horses and other animals to roam
at will.
In rushed Mis- Julia Garner, daugh
ter of one of the town's pioneer physi
cTa'is, shouting : "Oh, Mr. Tozier! Mrs.
Barrett's old sow is eating irp your
roller."
When the roller was rescued there
was only enough of it left to make a
small brayer and with this for the next
few issues the type was inked and the
paper issued to an anxious world.
Since then conditions have changed.
In 1SS4 the Chehalis Bee was founded.
In 1898 the two papers were consoli

MASONS PLAN REUNION
SCOTTISH RITE TO CONFER 1E
CiR EES ON NOVEMBER 19.
Al Kuricr Shrine, on November -0,
Will Entertain Highest OlTi
ciul in North America.
Arrangements for a special reunion
of Scottish Rite Masons are under way
for November 19, when Inspector-General
P. S. Malcolm will cause the in
effable degrees to be communicated to
a large class of applicants. The work
will be done in one day, as a favor to
Al Kader temple of the Mystic Shrine.
On November 20 Al Kader will enter
tain the highest official of the order
in Nort h America and will receive a
class of novices at that time.
The work, of the Scottish Rite is said
to be of a most imposing and impres
sive character, usually requiring t h ree
to four days of constant attendance
on the part of a candidate. Officers of
the rite are always reluctant to allow
the degrees to be put on at a faster
pace, believing that much of their
beauty and impressiveness are thereby
lost to the candidate.
The concession is made in this in
stance to reduce the time to one day
out of consideration for the Shrine of
Portland, which next year will enter
tain the imperial council of the order
and whose members are eager to make
a demonstration that will impress the
party of distinguished visitors when
they arrive lie re in November.
Inspector-General Malcolm hopes for
a class of 200 applicants for the Scot
ish Rite. Candidates are being received
from all parts of the state, but a con
siderable portion of the whole is ex
pected from Portland.

It is reported here that more than SO
