with measures now pending that
are loosely or confusingly drawn
upon which the electorate Is to be
asked to vote at the next election.
Now Held Time to Call Half.
He said it is now high time to
halt and return to the original con
stitution of Oregon, framed by the
fathers and still as stable and out
standing as the pole star and as
' ure a guide.
It was said the fulfillment of the
early vision of the pioneers was now
apparent everywhere, with churches,
schools and ail the refinements of
civilization established where in the
days the convention commemorates
there was but a vast Wilderness
peopled by savages. He expressed
the faith that as long as the pio
neer spirit survives, Oregon will be
truly American, leader In the nation
as in the west.
Welcome to the pioneers was
voiced soon after the convention
opened yesterday afternoon by Col--onel
Robert A. Miller, representing
Mayor Baker. Response was by
Miss Ellen Chamberlain, retiring
president, pioneer of 1857.
Organ Prelude Flayed. -An
organ prelude was played by
Ralph Hoyt before the call to order
and the audience then sang "Amer
ica." Rev. John W. Cullen, a pio-
neer of 1847, gave the invocation, as
well as the benediction at the con
vention's close. Durjng the pro
gramme there was a baritone solo
by Allyn G. Adams, singing of "The
Star-Spangled Banner'1 by the audi
ence, and music By the Shaver school
juvenile orchestra.
At the close of the afternoon pro
gramme at 4:J0 the pioneers gath
ered in the banquet hall at the audi
torium, where the women's auxil
iary of the pioneers' organization
served the dinner. As always at the
annual pioneer reunions, this was
an entirely happy occasion, with the
exchange of early-day reminiscence
enlivening the meal.
John W. Bake, President.
John "W. Baker, an Oregon pio
neer of 1853, was elected president
of the association for the coming
year last night, succeeding Miss
Ellen Chamberlain. Mr, Baker had
been vice-president for the last year
and has been active in the organiza
tion for sotrie time.
J. D. Chitwood, retiring director,
was elected vice-president, his
choice also being unanimous. George
H. Himes was returned as secre
tary, a post he has filled to the
high approval of all pioneers for
; many years. W. M. Ladd Was re-
elected, as treasurer. Three direc
tors elected Were Bruoe Wolverton,
Judge H. H. Hewitt and. David
Stearns, the last being a re-eleo-tion.
The embers of other campflres,
built along the" Winding trail to
Oregon so many years ago were
rekindled last night at the audito
rium at-the annual campfire of the
pioneers that followed the dinner.
As an interlude between the two
events Mrs. Matilda C. Howard, 78
years, old, of Portland, danced a
double Bhuffle, to the delight of
numbers of her pioneer associates.
She stepped as nimbly as when, she
declared, she danced her Way across
the plains, a member of a pioneer
company that came by Wagon train
in 1850.
Campfire Days Recalled.
Reminiscence of pioneer days
characterized the campfire pro
gramme, impromptu in character,
when old friends met again and re
called experiences of the past.
Frederick V. Holmaft was called to
the chair after the induction - of
President-elect Baker, and a past
president's badge was presented to
Miss Chamberlain as she yielded the
gavel to her successor.
Resolutions of ooiadwlenc to the
tfamiilies of pioneers who Jia-ve died
during the year were reported by
tine resoilu'tSomis oomtri.it'tee, oom
poseid of T. T. GeAri C. B. Mooifee and
P. H. D'Arcy. Sorrow was1 expressed
at the coins'tia-nit defpfltetttoft of th
assocriattoMi rnm.bOTSlh:ip tlhi rough
death and a pledge, giveifi tttiiat their
name and lives will -ever bo held in
loving memory.
Other resolution were favoring
tho erection of monumemt to the
memory of Sam Simpson-, noted Ore
gon poet who is he4d especially deaf
tio t!he piioineers beca-uae hie wajs one
of theniv of 'tlhain.k 'to all who made
the convention, sesstow juet closed so
successful by tblr acta of hedp and
tihoughitfulnesB, and the -reunion
went an reoord as favotf ilng tjhe open
ing of tlhe old Laurel hlU road fol-
lowed by pioneers from n ioot of
Mount Hood inbo th Willamette
valley. ,
Old Road Historic Mark.
' It was singularly appropriate that
a plea for this road was made by
Rev. Troy Shelley of Hood River,
wlw said he remembered that his
mother, in 1848, carried him in her
arms down that hill while the Jour
ney was being made in an Imml
grant train from the middle west.
It was urged that the old road be
opened and a permanent mark be
placed at its intersection by the
scenic Mount Hood loop, creating
another historic point that would
have a decided interest for all who
may travel the new loop.
Chairman Holman spoke earnestly
for a monument honoring Sam Simp
son, author of "Beautiful WiliamL
' ette," "Maple at the Gate" and many
other poems, and advised that the
purpose of the association would
best be attained If the fund tt be
raised were collected by public sub
scription, .making it in this Way
widely representative.
Tragic Episode Recalled.
A direct link with the most tragic
episode of early Oregon Was estab
lished at the night session, when
three survivors of the Whitman mas-
sacre were introduced to the pion
eers by Mrs. Edith Tozier Weath
erred. They were Mrs. Elizabeth M.
Helms, Mrs. Nancy A. Jacobs and
Mrs. Gertrude Denny. Mere children
when the Indians descended upon the
Whitman mission near Walla Walla,
they ran and hid, being rescued later
by white settler.
A pleasing feature of the1 pro
gramme was the appearance of a
chorus from theTreble Clef, Ores
cendo and Monday Musical clubs, di
rected by Mrs. Rose Coursen Reed.
They sang "Believe Me if All Those
Endearing Young Charm," "Old
Carolina," and "Blue- Danube
Waltzes' iff the evident dslisrht of
! - . ,1 . '"M . '' I
the audience. Mrs. Carrie B. Adams
led the pioneers in singing old songs
and the reunion closed with "Auld
Lang Syne."
