Cities Are Shaking Off Their Chains of Depression. the big boosters for the Chinook sal- rwaedr?ome "Ira May 24th Is Near East Relief Day Give Your Parcels to Our Delivery Men or Leave at Accommodation Desk 1st Floor PROSPERITY SIGNS NOTED President, Invited to Portland Rose Festival, Manifests Keen Interest in Coming Event. Cities in the east are slowly but surely shaking off the chains of de pression and regaining prosperity, ac cording to Eric V. Hauser, president of the Portland Rose Festival associa tion, who returned to Portland yes terday from Washington, D. C. Mr. Hauser carried to Washington the bound invitations bidding Presi dent and M-n. Harding attend the Portland Rose Festival. After pre senting the invitations Mr. Hauser went to New York, Philadelphia, Chi cago and St. Paul, stopping in each of these cities for a few days. "The east has been hit by more severe depression that we suffered in the west," Mr, Hauser said. "Bread lines have been common things throughout the east. Industrial plants have been closed for months and those that continued operation did so with reduced forces and naturally reduced output. Better Conditions Noted. "But signs of returning prosperity 'can be seen on all sides. It is not the prosperity that existed during the war, but a healthy, normal con dition. "Factories in the east are reopen ing, public work is being offered for contract and the railroads are be ginning to plan for rehabilitation of their properties as well as extensions. "The return of a new era of pros perity will be slow, according to men who have their hands on the pulse of the situation, but it is returning-." Mr. Hauser said that while Presi dent Harding could not avail himself of the opportunity to visit Portland during the Rost Festival, he was so pleased by the invitation that he of fered to name a representative to at tend in his stead. President In Interested. "The president gave the Portland delegation a hearty reception and manifested keen interest in the Rose Festival." said Mr. Hauser. "He in dicated that he probably would visit Portland and the northwest some time this year. "Secretary Denby assured our dele gation of battleships for the festival, and he. too, had heard a great deal about Portland's Rose Festival. "In fact, wherever we stopped in the east, we found that Portland has benefited by the festival. People know of our city through the festival and the Columbia River highway. . "The 1925 fair has had much adver tising, and the people in the east are awaiting final word on how this project is to be handled." eastern points that have reached their destination in excellent condi tion, says the Oregon City Enterprise. One of the chinooks was sent to Chi cago, packed in ice to Mr.- Fauley's brother-in-law, avid Stevens, who spent an entire day exhibiting the 40 pound salmon. Mr. Stevens celebrated by having a number of his friends at a big salmon feast. Great excitement prevailed in the neighborhood while the salmon was displayed. Another salmon was sent to East Greenwich, R. I., when a friend, F. L. Murray, was the lucky man, and while a third was sent to Mr. Fauley's son, Gordon Fau ley, student at the University of Chi cago. This was a 25-pound salmon caught by Mr. Fauley. Students of the university feasted. Grays Harbor to Get Airplane. j Captain Walter Smith of the Grays j Harbor Aero Transit company ex pects the big plane the company has purchased In about three weeks, says the Hoquiam Washingtonian. Con struction of the hangar, at the end of! Simpson avenue on the east bank of j the Hoquiam river, is well along. The plane is being" built in Seattle and-: will carry ten passengers besides the i pilot and mechanic, and have the lat- est designed conveniences. It also i will have space for considerable bag- ; gage with a lifting power of 7000 i pounda Captain Smith says it will! be the latest and finest equipment possessed by any company on the Pa cific coast. Good Stories Gleaned From Northwest Exchanges. Pony Express Race Big Feature of Canyon City Celebration. TWO Canyon City strings and two from Wasco county have been en tered to date in the pony express race between The Dalles and Canyon City which will be started June 8, as a feature of the Canyon City gold dis covery celebration, says The Dalles Chronicle. The Wasco county entrymen will be A. H. Moe of Dufur and J. F. Maddron of Wapinitia, while Claude Crosby of Canyon City and Bert Rice of Grant county are listed from the other end of the circuit. Moe will ride his own string and Maddron, or his son, will ride his horses. The race will start from in front of the Chronicle office at 1 o'clock in the afternoon of June 8, the entries departing at 15-minute in tervals. Three more strings are ex pected. This will mean 49 horses, as there are six relay points after the start is made. The Standard Oil company has had representatives canvassing eastern Oregon and Washington to get a line on the number of machines to be ex pected at Canyon City, and supplies are being assembled to care for at least 800 Juanita Miller, daughter of the late Joaquhv Miller, .poet of the Sierras, who was an early-day newspaper pro prietor at the gold "camps, will attend the celebration, which begins June 8 and extends through the evening of June 10. The Wells-Fargo Express company will send three of its veteran em ployes, men familiar with the days of the old gold camps, to have charge of its oince during the celebration. Two of the old-fashioned safes will be used to handle the money in the baitk" and other antique parapher nalia that was a part of the equip ment of the days1 of the pioneer rushes into the mining sections will do used. The winners of the pony express raoo will ba paid in gold dust, $1000 worth of it The- precious metal will be weighed by the Wells-Fargo agents and packed in buckskin pokes lor presentation, v. Salmon Shipment Successful. J. A. Fauley of Caneman Is one of "Well, well, Tom! How's the fish erman? I hear you took advantage of the opening of the season and went out on a fishing trip last week. Good luck, I hope. "Yes, great luck. Oh boy, it's won derful this time of year up in the Mount Hood country. Wish I could have stayed six weeks instead of one short one. "Say, you! Tou're dern lucky to be able to leave for that length of time. Would like to get away myself and take a chance with my new rod, but guess I'll have to wait until later In the summer. ' "I'm not so sure when I'll be able to take another trip myself. It does cost a lot more than a man plans on. And now the wife is howling about m clothes. Says 1 need a suit, u.tt and a whole outfit. I guess I do, b it that will take a lot of perfectly good money I had planned to use on a fishing trip now and then." "Oh, don't let a little thing like money bother you. Take shorter fish ing trips. Don't go so far, and get your clothes, too. Say, did you know u m.-.n can tret c dandy suit at 349 .Morrison street on credit? Cherry's! "jrcat place. -Mighty convenient terms, too. Take elevator." Adv. Wool Crop Nearly All Sold. The 1322 wool crop of the Umatilla region, with the exception of three or four clips, has been sold, the date of sale being earlier this year than for many years in the past, says the Pendleton correspondent of the La Grande Observer. The general price paid was from 28 to 30 cents for j coarse wool and 35 cents for fine. In the past it has been the custom of growers to wait until the wool sales in the latter part of May, but this year the tendency to sell has been general. j Tunnel to Tap Sunken Lake. Thirty citizens of The Dalles were I guests the other day of the Golden dale chamber of commerce and were taken on a tour of the rich farming country adjoining Goldendale, and on; a visit to the irrigation project fos tered by Goldendale business men, in which a tunnel is being driven through the side of a mountain to tap a sunken lake. In the evening a ban quet was given the visitors. The Dalles Chronicle says everybody who made the trip is singing the praises of Goldendale and the hospitality of its people. Newport Crges Road to SUets Bay. A delegation of Newport citizens, representing the commercial club of that city, called on the county court Monday, says the Lincoln County Leader, and urged the immediate con-' struction of a perjnanent road from the Salmon river to Taft, on the Si'.etz bay, bonds for which were vot ed in June, 1921. The delegation was composed of Al Kirkland, L. C. Smith, J. Van Wassenhove, Dr. R. Hendry, Dr. Belt, L. W. Williams, H. H. An derson, B. F. Jones, Mayor Charles Roper. Tom Horning of Otter Rock and F. W. Gerttula. canneryman of Kernville. Road Buildins Work Started. Road construction 4.n Umatilla county for 1922 is well under way, according to a statement by County Judge Schannep to the Pendleton East O;egonian. The Butter creek road, fiom the Morrow county line to the Gaylord Madison place, is finished. The contractor who secured the Job on the Pilot Rock to Butter creek road is moving in equipment. Some preliminary work on a stretch of mar ket road already is under way, and another stretch of road will be under construction within a short time. The General Contracting company of Spo kane will do the work. Grant County Law-Abiding-. The present term of court in Grant ' county was a short one. There were ro criminal cases and all the civil . ease were settled out of court. Dur ing all the experience of Judge Biggs cn the bench this never has happened ' before in Grant, Harney or Malheur , counties, says the Blue Mountain I ; Eagle. This shows the , people of V Grant county are peace-loving and if law-abiding, and is a record of which ! A they have a right to be proud. j J S 6 Divers Going After Treasure. On a recent trip to Del Norte county Superintendent Denio of the Southern Curry Telephone company made a visit to Crescent City to see the div ing bell which will be used in an at tempt to salvage he wreck of the Brother Jonathan, which lies at a comparatively shallow depth off Point St. George. Mr. Denio tells the Gold Beach Reporter the apparatus is in genious and that the promoters are confident of success. Heavy seas due to the prevailing northwest wind have delayed the expedition. 4 Abandoned Mill to Be Sold. The Raymond Land & Improvement company has given an option on the abandoned mill and site of some seven or eight acres of the State Lumber & Box company, idle since 1908, to the Columbia Wood Products company, the Willapa Harbor Pilot reports. Ciaude House, manager of the Ray mond Land & Improvement company, negotiated the sale. Tree Planting Delayed. Trail building and forest service work in eastern Lewis county is pro gressing nicely, says the Morton (Wash.) Mirror, with the exception of tree planting on the Cispus. The lat ter Is being delayed to some extent by the lack of men, and it may be possible officials say, that some of the crew of 85 men working on the Vance road may have to be used for a time in the planting operations, thus delaying to some extent the comple tion of that road. Canyon City to Light I p. Canyon City is going to vote on a $5000 bond issue for a municipal light ing plant. That city owes $12,000, of which $6000 falls due in January, 1923, with a sinking fund of only $3200 to meet it. The other $6000 in debtedness is in outstanding war rants. Canyon City is now paying $600 a year interest charges. Huge Black Bear Kills Calf. A huge black bear was killed by George Baker near Willapa bay Tues day, but not until the brute had killed a calf and mutilated a cow so that she had to be killed.

CONSIDERING that Saturday was a sort of holiday and that mem bers of the Kiwanis club do not be lieve in overly exerting, themselves on either holy days or holidays, the members of the Portland lodge of that order did not complete the level ing:, grading, sandpapering and pol ishing of Kinwanis avenue. But they made a good start on the easy end of the street, near Johnson's store, as evidenced by two piles of Junk, now ready for the flames. Thj members will be out again in a day or so. Any how, they have made a start, which is more than any of our other lodges has done. ' B. K.
