THE SUXn.VY OREGON IAN, PORTLAND, JUNE 7, 1903.
HELD 111 SESSION
BY STRONG WIND
New York Legislators Fight
to Avoid Consideration of
Racing Bills.
ALL DEPENDS ON FOELKER
fcirk. Senator's Sore Appendicitis Is
Key to Situation Issue Cannot
Be Forced Inlil Me Takes
His Seat Again.
BT ILOYB F. WNERGAN.
NEW YORK, June 2. (Special.) The
Governor is holding the Legislature in
aosRion by main strength, and numer
ous emergency messages, but the final
act In the drama will be played on
June 11, when it ie promised that the
Legislature "will positively adjourn."
Senator Foclker Is believed to hold
the key to the situation. His doctors
ay that the Senator, who Is recover
ing from appendicitis, will be able to
take his seat on June 8. If he docs, the
racetrack bills will pass perhaps, and
then again, perhaps they will not.
The organization leaders want to
prevent, if possible, another vote on
the gambling bill. Secretly the major
ity of the leaders. Republican and
Pemocratic, do not want present con
ditions changed; but the Republicans
do not care to vote with the racetrack
crowd if they can prevent it. They be
lieve, and with good reason, that it
would hurt the party with many classes
of voters in various sections ot the
etate.
Under present conditions, all the
blame can be laid on the shoulders of
the eight party traitors." together
with Senator Foelker's appendicitis.
Ho a pretty political game has been
in progress at Albany for several
weeks, with honors divided up to date.
Under the law of the state, a special
session of the Legislature can only con
eider matters which are specially rec
ommended by the Governor for their
consideration. When the lawmakers
convened, one of Hughes' supporters
was sick, and the special election had
not been hed. So the Governor rO'om
mended other topics for consideration,
carefully holding back the gambling
bills.
Gives Senators a Hint.
This gave several Senators an idea,
which they proceeded to carry into ef
fect. They promptly killed the meas
ures which Hughes had recommended.
Then they sent a committee to call on
the Governor.
"Everything Is cleared up," they said,
in substance; "now, please cannot we
go home?"
The Governor was wise, however. He
told thfm l:e had a Jew new thoughts
oVi r.eceasary legislation, which he
would proceed to communicate to them.
And he did. V
Three bills ehared the fate of their pre
dfeensers, r.nd another v'sit was paid
to the Governor. Thereupon he 3hot In
nine more measures of "immediate im
portance." Iiicluded in the list are such thrilling
Items "eivlng the local authorities power
tc improve the sewer system of Mount
K':aco," "readjusting the finances of :'ew
Pochelle." ''extending the work of
abolishing grade crossings." "Enlarging
the jurisdiction of the C'ourt of Claims"
an3 "Establishing a State Farm for
Wonen in Washington County. "
This array satisfied the leaders that
the Governor ir.tended to keep the game
going. So Speaker Wadsworth and Presi
dent pro tern Raines formally visited the
executive; and requested a heart to heart
talk.
The result was that the Legislature will
reconvene on June 8, and act upon the
rccetrack gambling bills, finally adjourn
ing June 11, in time for the Republicans
to scurry out to Chicago. In the mean
time the only legislators who remain in
Albany are the local representatives,
who .formally meet and adjourn from
day to day.
., Relations Are Strained.
There is no denying the fact that rela
tions between the Governor and members
of his party In both houses are strained.
That is a very mild way of putting It.
Not more than two or three Sanators
and Assemblymen can be found to defend
his course in calling the extra session,
and demanding that the "dead heat"
over the racetrack bills be run off.
For some inexplicable reason the Sena
tors and Assemblymen who want the
racetrack bills killed are extremely con
fident that their hopes will be ' fulfilled.
On ''form" the Governor would seem to
have the 26 votes necessary to pass the
measures But the sports of the Legis
lature, who know all about, and ap
preciate the inconsistencies of form, say
the favorite will be left at the polls,
whatever that may mean.
Governor Hughes would not be sur
prised if the gamblers have a Senator
under cover. But he is determined to
force the issue, and will do so as soon
as Senator Foelker can take his seat.
There is no doubt 'but that the Gov
ernor has lost a good deal of strength
by his veto of the Coney Island B-cent
fare, and the sad part of the matter Is
that his action was correct.
. The measure passed both houses by
practically a unanimous vote, but any
lawyer in the Legislature will tell you,
privately of course, that the bill is un
constitutional, and thoroughly unjust.
It is about 11 miles from the Manhattan
entrance of the Brooklyn bridge to Coney
Island. Advocates of the 5-cent rate
point out that a passenger can take a
longer ride than that for a nickel In
Manhattan and the Bronx. . This is true
but misleading. A very small percentage
of the Manhattan riders go from the
Battery to Bronx Zoo or Central bridge.
Most of them go only a short distance,
and the average car is filled and emptied
several times before it reaches the end
Bf the route.
Traffic Is Overwhelming.
The Coney Island cars are crowded to
the doou when they leave the bridge
entrance. Nobody gets off until the end
of the line Is reached, and naturally
nobody else gets on, for there is no room.
An average carload to Coney Island is 75,
which at 10 cents means J7.50. A car
running to High Bridge frequently
registers 160 passengers at 5 cents or IS.
Another effective plea for the down
trodden railroad corporation is that the
tide of travel to and from the island does
not ebb and fldw equally. In the late
afternoon and evening crowded cars in
long streams bounce along to the sea
shore. But up to 10 o'clock at night they
come back practically empty. Late at
night they go to the island with mighty
few passengers, but must be kept in
service because of the home-coming
crowds. .
If the railroad corporation could con
trol the stream ot travel so the people
would travel when it would be most con
venient they could probably make money
on a o-cent fare. But as it is they can
not. Naturally this view of the case does
not appeal to the average New York
householder, who wants to pay as little
as possible for his amusements. So they
bitterly resent the Governor's veto. He
has put the matter up to the Public
Service Commission, but there Is little
prospect that that body will take action,
at least for a long time. For it has
already made a record for long distance
deliberation.
Xot in Receptive Mood.
Eighty-four of the 86 legislators from
the metropolitan district voted for the
bill. Several of the Senators and As
semblymen have appealed to the Gover
nor to direct the preparation of a bill
which will compel the B. R. T. to carry
passengers from the city to Coney Island
for one fare, and to back it up with a
special message to the legislature, urg
ing its immediate passage. The advo
cates of this proposition, however, have
not found Hughes in a receptive mood,
and have practically given up hope that
he will comply with their request.
That the Tammany Senators and As
semblymen are alive to the political ad
vantage of Indorsing the five cent fare
scheme is manifested from their declara
tion that they will urge Charles F
Murphy to suggest its indorsement by
the Tammany organization in the 35. as
sembly districts in Manhattan. Murphy,
it is said, views this proposition with
favor.
It is pretty certain that the next Dem
ocratic state convention will Include in
its platform a pledge to support the five
cent fare scheme at the next session of
the leElslature. It is not Improbable that
the Republicans will also find a place in
their party platform for a similar plank,
as the measure vetoed by the Governor
was supported by every Republican from
the metropolitan district, except Senator
Agnew.
Traction officials say that any legisla-

SEW STEEL STEAMER H. B. KENNEDY.
In competition with shipbuilding plants on Puget Sound and In San Francisco, the Willamette Iron & Steel Works, of
Portland, won tho contract for the construction of a steel screw passenger steamer for the Port Orchard route out of
Seattle. The vessel will be constructed with the special view of obtaining speed, and the contract calls for not less
than 20 miles an hour. No Portland Arm has been engaged in the building of steel hull vessels since the unfortunate
destruction of 1i3 Wolff & Zwlcker Iron Works by fire a -number of years ago, and the entering of the field by the Wil

be SO feet in length. They will have a sped requirement of 11 miles an hour.
tive or public service board action could
be easily upset by the courts. One thing
is clear, however, and that is that there
will not be any cheap fare to Coney
Island this year anyway.
BALLOON TBS IN VOGUE
SPICK OF DANGER CHARMS
JADED SOCIETY PEOPLE.
Paris Takes Vp New Fad With Huge
Delight Invitations Grimly
Suggestive.
PARIS. June 6. (Special.) Harry Lehr,
or whoever was the American society
man who invented monkey dinners, must
surely turn green with envy when ha
thinks of the Parisian swell who origi
nated the "balloon 5 o'clock tea," which
is far more original and which is all tha'
rage here now. Some morning you find
among your mail, that is, if you belong to
the smart set. a card inviting you to take
part in a 5 o'clock balloon tea from "4 to
X o'clock," and the 4"X" does not stand
for 10, but the unknown hour of your
descent. Your host has cushioned hia
aerial car as comfortably as possible, has
set up a small table in the center of tt
and as the balloon rises gracefully fr,om
the aero park at St. Cloud the tea is
poured out. nut always Into the cup. but
quite as often upon the hat or gown of
some unfortunute below.
The chief charm about balloon tea-ing
Is its uncertainty. You know when you
go up, but you never know how, when or
where you get down. There is even a
chance that you may never come down
alive. No wonder the fagged-out nerves
of our society people are delighted with,
the sport.
The other day more than 20 parties went
up In their tea baskets, and I happened
to overhear this conversation between
two ladies who had just returned from
an aerial voyage:
Gaston shall certainly never marry my
Irene."
"Why not, ma chere?"
"Because he has the most terrible tem
per. I tell you, his remarks while wo
were becalmed over a factory chimney
at St. Denis were something shocking. I
can imagine him swearing at the poor
child."
Old Woman Strangely Murdered.
RENO, New, June 6. A dispatch from
Virginia City says Mrs. J. Dunn, an
aired pioneer woman of the Com stock,
was found dead in her home with her
head bent back over her shoulder and
her body wedged between the bed and
wall. Her head was smothered in pil
lows and bedclothes. Mrs. Dunn lived
alone, and was very poor. The motive
for the murder is unknown.

NORMAN, Okla., June 6. Flood condi

Oklahoma, are rapidly becoming worse.
In four hours this evening the river rose
nine feet. Residents in the lowlands
were forced to move to the hills. Great
damage has been done to crops and
farms.

STORY ABOUT PORTLAND FOR WHICH
THE COMMERCIAL CLUB HAS PAID $500.00
Miss Matee! Howe's Charming Description of the City Being Published in Pamphlet Form, and Twenty-five Thou
sand Copies Will Be Distributed During Rose Festival.
THE Portland Commercial Club la
having 25,000 copies of its prize
article on Portland, written by
Miss Mateel Howe, a Portland girl,
printed for general distribution. The
story is being printed in pamphlet form
with a picture of the author on the first
page. Copies will be given a wide cir
culation during the Rose Festival and
their distribution will result In very
wide publicity for Portland. The story
is a charming description of this city,
and is as follows:
I have visited most of the principal cities
of the world. both In this continent and
Europe and Ala. And I can say honestly
and enthusiastically that the city most Idtally
cituateJ, most bt-auti fully located of alt the
cities I have een. U Portland. Ortjton.
Years and years bro the old pioneer trad
ers and woodmen built a little village in the
heart of the great forest. In a tiny cleared
space on the banks of the Willamette River,
and palled It Portland. Little by little the
forest were cleared and the trees pushed
back, and Utile by little other traders and
pioneers, and teachers, and men of means
and business, came, and slowly but surely
the cleared space grew, and the trees that
had been sole monarchs of this Western
land o many centuries, began to surrender
their birthright; the right to live and grow
and breathe the great pure air of God's out
doors, untainted. But they have never quite
surrendered, these trees, though It has been
more than a hundred years since the white
men came. Pine and spruce and fir and
hemlock, the nobleyt of all woodland things.
BUILT BY THE WILLAMETTE IRON & STEEL WORKS FOR
ORCHARD ROUTE, OUT OF SEATTLE
they still crowd the city's back doors; and
therein lies the churm of Portland.
The Valley has been cleared on both .side?
of the river, and the trees and ferns and
little growing things have given way to
paved streets and homes, and blocks ol sky
scrapers, and churches, and libraries, and a
hundred other structures of brick and wood
and mortar. The quiet of the forest has
changed ' to the clang of the streetcar gongs,
the hoot of automobiles and all the million
other noises of a busy city. Even back of
the Heights that surround the Valley on the
south side of the river, the cleared space la
growing, and the trees are giving away. But
It Is slowly and with dignity they have
never quite surrendered. In a decade or two
they will be gone, perhaps, but today the
remnant of a once most mighty army is ftili
patiently and heroically fighting the losing
fight, and holding their positions as best they
may on the hilltops and the hillsides.
"What Munt the Trees Think.
It seems to me they must wonder and euffer
all day long as the noise and smoke of the
city comes up to them, but I think sometimes
at night when the noises are hushed and the
great city lies still, and a fresh breeze winds
lte way up the river from the Pacific, and they
taste again the salt In the air, fresh and
sweet, as it was a hundred years ago, they
can forget for a while that nearly 200.UMO
people are sleeping so near them, and dream
once more of the forests and life there as
It ueed to be. 1 live on the Heights, within
easy walking distance of downtown, and
only half a block from the carline. but a
climb of ten minuted will take me straight
to the midst of the trees and ferns and quiet
places, and I can dream in the stillness as I
like to think the trees do, and Imagine that
there is no city ands only the woods and
things as they used to be; and it is good.
Three years ago, when I flret came to
Portland, it took me but five minutes to find
the woods. Now the places where I used to
dream are being cleared for the most won
derful building sites; for they are on the
Heights, and the view is superb, and Port
land Is growing so faat that I fear I must go
still farther in another year. But the beau
tiful trees! I wonder if they will ever quite
give up?
Portland "City of Trees."
I think that even the builders are sorry,
though, to have them go. I think everyone
loves the trees. Almost every street in
Portland Is bordered and shaded by trees of
one kind or another, livery yard large enough
has one or two of the old monarchs ot trees,
livery yard is a mat of bloom. Perhaps the
trees themselves have influenced the people.
Perhaps It Is because the soil i. so rk-h that
anything grows riotously that Is given half a
chance. I know, though, whatever the cause,
that the Portlanders seem to love the grow
ing things better than people of other cities,
and have earned for their home the title of
"Rose City." But it might also be called
the City of Trees. It Is certainly a city tbat
loves outdoor things, and plant life, and
flowers and beaut if ul la wns.
They love the mountains, too, for we have
mountains as well as trees. 1 am constantly
hearing people passing on the streets talk
ing about how the mountains looked last
evening or the evening before, or of the sun
set glow on Mount Hood or Mount St. Hel
ens. . - ,
lrst ('llmpw of the Mountains-
T shall never forget my first sight of the
mountains. It had been raining steadily
since I came, and I didh't know Portland
had any - mountains. Riding on a car on
the first clear day, at one of the cross
streets, I suddenly saw a large, graceful,
snow-covered mountain, seemingly not more
than a mile away but instead of being
white. It was one great glow of pink. It
was so unexpected I gasped, and. as the
car moved on, I thought I must be dream
ing. .But at the next corner I saw it again,
so I got off and stood there fully ten min
utes, and looked and looked, till the glow
had faded. It seemed quite like a glimpse
at some fairy mountain. Up in our neigh
borhood It used to seem a strange thing to
have our neighbors call us up over the
phone to tell us to look out at the moun
tain quickly. Now we. too, telephone, to
them. I think this love of scenery and of
things beautiful and God-made is a good
thing and helps us.
Nice Words for the Willamette.
Portland has four superb snow-capped
mountains always in view, even from down
t"wn, in good weather, and a fifth can be
seen from certain points. Tho city is built
on both sides of the river, which winds
about a rivers do, running north for awhile,
and then turning and going west through
the rest of. the city. It ie not a muddy,
sandy river, like the Missouri, but clear and
deep so deep thart the largest sea-going
vessels anchor at Portland's docks, it has
no swift or shifting current that makes
boating or canoeing unsafe. In the Sum
mer time the river is alive' with rowbnats,
canoes, launches and sailboats, and a mile
or two up the river you will find another
stretch of a mile or more occupied by the
gayest of houseboats, where most of so
ciety folks who stay In town in Summer,
spend their time. Summer and Winter the
river is always busy with river boats that
ply up and down the Willamette and Co
lumbia daily, and one can always find a
dozen or two dozen ocean steamers or
schooners tied ur at the various docks un
loading or loading for we have the largest
lumber mills and the largest flour mills of
the world here on the river banks The
river is always a busy place.
As Compared With That of Seattle.
On the north and east sides of the river
Is what is called the "East Side." The busi
ness and wholesale district, and most of
the handsome homes of Portland are -n the
other side. The Ease Side Is made up
chiefly of homes comfortable homes, with
wide lawns -end has been built up In very
recent years. I'nlike Seattle. Portland has
any amount of land t grow on, as the East
tlde stretches out in a rolling upward slope
Tor miles and miles Seattle is restricted
by her hilts to a comparatively small space.
Already Seattle's mills and factories are be
ing pushed out by high prices of land to
Tacoma. One reason Seattle always looks
so busy Is that the business district Is re
stricted to a few blocks. Here It spreads
over three times as much ground. To put
It elegantly, Portland has land to burn.
Artist's Chance on the Heights.
On the west and south sides of the river
Is the older part of the city and the most.
beautiful part. True, all Portland is beau
tiful. East and West, and the East Side has
mm
mm
many handsome homes and several very
lovely sections. But the older part of the
city is nearly always more finished. Be
sides, this side has the Heights. Beginning
at the south end of the city are a succes
sion of wooded foothills about 1OO0 feet
high, that come almost down to the river
tank, and then back away from the river
for a mile or two, forming a little valley
where Portland first started to grow. They
close in again at the north of the city. It
is on these hills that my trees grow, and
it is these little hills that form the Heights.
If I were a word artist like F. Hopkins
Smith, I would paint you a series of pic
tures of the gorgeous views that may be
seen from the Heights. Mrs. A. F. Martin,
of Atchison, who visited us one Winter,
wrote from L,os Angeles, after she had left,
and had been all through California, that
while California was beautiful, she had no-.
yet found anything half so fine as the view
from our north and east windows.
For a time the Heights were impractica
ble for building purposes, on account of their
Inaccessibility. But some years ago a cable
line was built up on Portland Heights, and
that has been replaced within a few years
by an electric line that is unquestionably
the finest scenic line In the world either
cable, electric or steam. It begins at Wash
ington street and goes up. up, up. and
winds around, still going up. through the
finest streets and handsomest homes in the
city All the time Portland and the river,
sparkling In the sun, and the Bast Side lie
below you, and off to the north are Mount
St. Helens, Mount Rainier and Mount Ad
ams. Due east Is Mount Hood. By and by
the car leaves houses behind, and winds
upward through the woods, and you get
the cool breath of the pines on your face
It is almost a "relief after straining your
eyes to see so much to find just the green
woods all about you.
llw Council Crest Affects.
But in a minute, or two. or three, you are
out of the timber, and the car stops, and
you get out and walk a few steps, and find
yourself on Council Crest. You have arrived.
Council Crest means to much here I can
hardly believe It means nothing to out
siders. There on top of the highest hill,
one can see not only Portland
and the Willamette, but even the
Columbia, and old historic Fort Vancouver.
All the snow-capped mountains lie before
you in their fullest glory. And, turning,
one can see the valley that lies on the other
side of the hills the richest, greenest val
ley in the world, I believe; even
greener than England. It is so
beautiful all of it. And one Is
apt to forget that the soil is 40 feet deep,
and raises the finest fruits of the North
west (and that means of the world), and
remember only its beauty. The ride back
Is much like coming up. only one finds new
vistas to admire. I have taken the ride
price 5 cents a hundred times, and have
never yet grown tired. The ride Is probably
the prettiest when the roses are in greatest
profusion in May and June but it is glor
ious at any time.
KpetLking of Portland Roses.
Samuel Blythe, in his article on Portland
In the Saturday Evening Post, says roses
were Invented in Portland. And he was
just about right. You haven't seen roses
until you have seen Portland roses. Every
one here grows them, and you can see finer
specimens In a walk about the city than you
can see in any hothouses In Kansas or
elsewhere. The soil and the climate are pe
culiarly adapted to rose cultivation. The
people love the roses, and plant them every
where. Nearly every walk in the residence
district Is a walk between two masses of
blossoms. , They plant rosea on both sides
of the street walks, in the yards, in the
parks, everywhere, and nearly every porch
in town i one great cluster of pink or
white or pale gold or deep red climbing
roses. One has to see to appreciate. It is
not entirely the soil and the climate that
make them grow, but the love and care
that help Nature.
Halo Libel by Blytbe.
Mr. Blythe said it rained every day fn Port
land. I would like to call Mr- Blythe a name,
but he Is one or else very ignorant. True, it
does rain In Portland in the Winter time. For
about six weeks It rains almost every day. But
it does not snow or get very cold, and there
are no cold, piercing, marrow-freezing winda
to numb one. The gras stays green the
year 'round, and. roses b I oora till Ch r i s t mas
time. After the six weeks' rainy spell, it
does not rain any more "than It does on the
Eastern Coast not nearly as much as it
does In Washington City, where. I spent four
Winters. And the Summers and Autumns
cannot be surpassed. For five months it
hardly rains at ail and the days are warm
and pleasant (not hot), and the nights in
variably cool. I think Portland got Its repu
tation for rain becaufe of its nearness to
Idaho and" California, where there are great
stretches of country where it never rains at
all, and -every blade of grass or wheat and
every tree or flower has to be coaxed to
grow by artificial means by Irrigation.
Look! Look! Portland Women."
Life Is so short! Why not spend it In the
pleasant spots of the world? And Portland is
one of the pleasantest spots I have ever seen.
It Is green, so green alt the year round,
that one thinks of Paradise. Its climate
is never disagreeable, and nearly always
agreeable There are no harsh winds to
shrivel up the skin, as in Southern Califor
nia and the inland, and the women here
are said to have the finest complexions in
the T'nlted States.
After one has lived in a seaport city I
do not think that they are ever content
again to dwell Inland. There is a freedom,
a charm about It that I cannot explain.
From my window, as I write, I can see
the niBRti of the sea-oing veaoeis at an
chor. They are loading for Japan or Cal
cutta or Australia or England, perhaps, and
It brings those countries a thousand times
nearer, somehow. , to have the ships in
sight. It makes "a city more Interesting
to have a Japanese and a Chinese quarter,
and queer little Oriental shops to visit. It
broadens one in a way to meet a Hindu or
a South American or a Hawaiian on the
streets every day or two.
Dreamer'i Paradise.
To a dreamer like myself, it is more than
good to sit at my window and watch the
masts of the vessels that lie at anchor
scarce a mil away. It is good to get the
fresh sea breeze each night and morning,
and it is, good to know that our mightiest
ocean Is only a few hours away. It is big,
and it Is pretty, and it is pleasant. I can
not explain the feeling, but one feels ham
pered Inland. All feel the charm. I think.
It Is part the charm of the West and part
the charm of the sea. It makes life more
interesting, and broader, and more worth
while. In spirit I stretch out my arms to
the white-winged ships sometimes, and
want to go, too, but "even though I must
stay behind, I can follow them in thought
and imagination. One meets so many in
teresting and strange characters, ton; those
who have traveled and seen the ends of
the world.
Aspects of. Home Life.
Portland, though a seaport town, and a
Western town, is still a city of homes. It
is unlike Seattle and San Francisco in this,
and more like an EaMern or Southern city
The people do not dine out here evening
after evening, but at home. You do not
find the grand, mad. breathless rush after
pleasure one flnd3 in Seattle or Frisco. They
iead saner lives here. Men spend more
time with their families, or tending their
roses, than In most of the Western Coast
cities. People here still find time to be
neighborly. Up on the hill in our part of
town we send samples of preserves and
jellies and chile sauce over to our neigh
bors and receive the same in return, and
run in and out just as they do in the good,
sane, glad places everywhere.
The growth In Portland has been slower
than in Seattle, but more substantial and
sure. It has not boomed, it has juat grown.
I have been here hut three years, but it
has changed so much in that time. The
people are better dressed on the streets
than when I came. There are twice as
many automobiles, carriages and horses as
when I came. When I go downtown any
day, I keep thinking it must be Saturday
afternoon, the streets are so crowded.
As a Girl Sees the Future.
I am Just a girl, and know little or noth
ing of the business side of Portland. I write
of it only as 1 see it. I fear I cannot tell
of the side men would be most interested in.
I loathe statistics, and so cannot give them.
I only know how the city has grown and
improved in a substantial, solid way, be
cause I could not help but see it. I know
that Portland has the most wonderful future
of any city of the Northwest because of its
location, and because of the country around
it. I took a map and studied it out because
I was Interested. Anybody can see it who
cares to. In the first place, Portland is the
farthest inland of any city on the Coast that
is a seaport, it Is the only fresh-water port
on the Coast. Down the Willamette eight
miles and down the Columbia 112 miles
makes Portland 120 miles inland, and any
thinking person can see the advantage that
gives Portland in saving of freight. More
over, and this is the biggest thing of all,
Portland has the only down-grade for rail
roads on the Pacific Coast. Just travel any
of the lines into Seat lis or California and
see the mountains one has to cross. Think,
then, of the advantage Portland has in sav
ing freight, you business men! The grade
follows the Columbia for several hundred
miles, and then the Snake River clear
across Idaho, and then out across the prai
ries to the East. And we are 120 miles in
land and the largest sea-going vessels visit
us. Is it any wonder Portland Is the weal
thiest city in the Northwest? Or that it
leads the world as a lumber port, and stands
first on the Coast in the exportation of
grain? Is it any wonder two new railroads,
are building into Portland, and a third
planned ?
True, Portland was slow to wake up. It
was settled by New Englanders, and it has
always been a conservative city. It hasn't
the spirit or boomers Seattle has, but it is
waking up. slowly and surely, and once
awake It can never go to sleep again.
During the first six months of ll7 Port
land made a larger percentage of increase
than any other city of the United States.
Doesn't that look as if she were almost
awake ?
Last, Not Least Bull Run.
There are hundreds of other things that
ought to be mentioned in a letter from
Portland. It is the most beautiful city in
the United States and has the finest water
pure mountain water. The few figures I have
given here are official, and I can prove
them. I haven't spoken of the many oppor
tunities here for men with capital or with
out capital, for everyone knows that this
whole Western land, being new, is bristling
with opportunities. And as Portland was a
little slower to wake up, perhaps there are
more opportunities here than elsewhere.
It is a land for young men and young wo
men. It Is a land for men and women of
middle and old age. It Is a land of oppor
tunities. All it asks la for you to come and
see. Will you come? And I'll show you
the trees my trees.
