THE SUNDAY OREGOXIAN, PORTLAND, MAY 2, 1913. 1.1 PIONEERS OBSERVE STATE'S NATAL DAY Sessitfn Is Held at Champoeg on 72d Anniversary of Historical Meeting. ABOUT 1000 ARE PRESENT Society's Fifteenth Annual Gather ing Is Held on Spot Where 5J or 10 2 Men Voted Oregon Into United States. ET ADDISON BENNETT. "Yesterday for the loth consecutive year the pioneers' Society of Oregon met at Champoeg to celebrate what may well be called Oregon's natal day. Really, the event ought to have taken place today, this being the 72d anni versary of the great event. But it was thought best to hold it on a week day, so it took place as aforesaid. There may be some who will dispute the fact that Oregon, as the Oregon of the United States, was created at so early a date, and such cavilers will say that the state was born in 1848, when the provisional government was formed; others will say it was born in 1S59, when admitted to the Union. Away with all such sophistries. Ore gon was born on that second day of May, 1843, when that sturdy band of pioneers at Champoeg followed Joe Meek as ho stepped aside and in effect said: "I am for the Union; let all those who are for the United States, as against Great Britain, follow me!" And 52 of the 102 followed Joe Meek, and thus the State of Oregon was born. Officials Are Elected. For before the meeting adjourned of ficials were elected to administer the affairs of the new state, Joe Meek be coming Sheriff. Yes, that was Oregon's natal day. Lest we forget, it may be well to set down the names of those who on that momentous occasion stood up to be counted for Oregon. This seems essen tial at this day and date, because some of the teachers in our public schools, at least one teaching under a life per mit, do not know tlie story of - Cham poeg, do not know where the place is, do not know, in fact, that there is such a place. So here is a list of the 52 in trepid men who 72 years ago today united in a simple form of self -government for the State of Oregon, with the state or country of their nativity, so far as known, and the date of their arrival in Oregon: Place Name. of Birth.

The unthinking reader may ask why It was that such a meeting took place In a place like Champoeg, wherein today there is not a building of any sort, save an old and dilapidated warehouse; at the) timet of the meeting thero was noth ing there in the way of a town, but little fave a warehouse: on the bank on the "Willamette belonging to the Hud non Bay Company. It must be remem bered that the speediest mode of travel in those days was by boat, the next on horseback, the next by wagon and team, the next by "oxmobile," as one of the pioneer ladies yesterday ex pressed it. Champoeg was in the midst of the most thickly-settled portion of Oregon. Boats and batteaux could reach it from up and down the Willamette, convey ances by land could reach it by road and trail, the footman- and most of them went there that day on foot, could reach it as a central point. Today Champoeg is inaccessible, comparative ly speaking. While it is less than 40 miles from Portland as the crow flies, it takes some five hours to reach it by boat. Nearly lOOO Cat her. Yesterday a larpe number took the steamer Oregona at the foot of Taylor street and arrived thero about 1 P. M. At Wllsonville quite a party got on board who had reached there from Portland and also from Salem, as well as other points, by the Oregon Electric. Then a large number came by automo biles, there were nearly 100 machines on the ground. Others came by Wasron, others on horseback and a few on foot When President P. H. D'Arcy called the meeting to oraer mere were nearly 1000 people in attendance. But let us ko back to the steamer Oretrona. On board this staunch little craft there were many old-timers. 1 noted the following, and give the dates of their arrival In this Oregon land: Mrs. T. J. Craig. 1858, born in Yamhill County: James F. Kailinsr, 1853; Cap tain W. H. Pope, 1851; Mrs. Epperson, 1848; Mrs. J. A. White. 1846; Mrs. E. B. Fellows. 1846; E. B. McFarland, 1852; J. H. Johnson. 1851; Mrs. Johnson, 1852; T. T. Geer, 3 852; Captain I. B. Sanborn, 1849, born in Oreson City; Mrs. San born, 1850; S. F. Newhard. 1854: W B Jolly. 1847; Mrs. H. E. Jolly, 1856: Mrs. Laura B. Downey Bartlett, 1853; S. A. Johns, 1853, and George H. Himes, 1853. Veteran Quartet Slnrca. With the celebrities the veteran quartet, consisting of Messrs. Parvin, Moore, Mills and Hall must not be overlooked. It is difficult to imagine what a Champoeg celebration would amount to without the singing of these four gentlemen. They started singing on the boat, on the grounds they sang and sang, for the audience would have apparently sat all nisht listening to their voices, that is JudgrinW from the uproarious applause given them. Arriving on the grounds, the first thing was lunch! A real picnic lunch out in the little wood on this hallowed ground. Quickly fires were burning, camp kettles and coffeepots were bubbling, the baskets were unpacked. and all "fell to." Some nearly fell aown. lor tnere was enough for all, and to spare. Some, like T. T. Geer and Governor Withycombe, ate at every cloth - covered. victual - laden sward. (If they get home alive It is a wonder). Others, like Dr. It. E. Lee Steiner and Mrs. Edyth Tozier Weth- erred, said they were not hungry and merely wanted a taste! Such-a-tastel If the asylum inmates "tasted" in that way, it would cost twice 113.50 a montn to feed each of them. Real Jollity Shown. Jolly? Say, unless you go with these pioneers to Champoeg you will not know the meaning of the word jollity. With Jest and query and retort, with reminiscence and narrative and rail lery, with song and story and mildly brewn "fibs" the time passed swiftly; and then the voice of P. H. sounded from the rostrum and all were soon seated. This same P. H., with the fur ther soubriquet of D'Arcy, is. some presiding officer. He started out by saying no one could talk longer than two minutes. He confined himself strictly to the injunction, but he got In a two-minute talk in introducing each speaker and another two minutes in dismissing him, or her. Yea. verily, P. H. is some "presider." But say, everybody enjoyed his raillery and banter. An address of welcome was delivered in the Chinook jargon by Professor E. B. McFarland. It was good. That is, he delivered it like a born orator. May me some of the audience knew what he was saying, that is got every word. I catight a few dozen illihees, a score of skook-skookums and a few dozen konaways and "Kopet let tupso kopa warn" "I caught in full, for I knew it was something or other about the last rost of Summer. Rev. Dr. Atwood, of Seattle, delivered the invocation, the tears in his voice and eyes were but a reflex of those in the eyes of his audience. Then the ever-present and ever-welcome veteran quartet sang a few songs, sang until they were tired out, and the audience still shouting for more. Governor Makea Talk. Governor Withycombe quite outdid himself by an eloquent little talk, pre ceded and followed of course by P. H. Then came another treat in a short speech by Mrs. Sidney Smith, '45. Her husband was that Sidney Smith whose name is in the "roll of honor" on the monument at Champoeg. She began by saying she oould not make a speech, "but,", she said, "I can talk, the same as any woman." And she surely did make a very eloquent little "talk" about her early days in Oregon. Her son. John U. Smith, followed her, and gave many pleasant reminiscences about his father. Mrs. Laura B. Downey Bartlett then sang "Kopet let Tupso Kopa, Warn," which :.'s Chinook for "The Last Rose of Summer." As an encore she ren dered "Pee Sahale Illahee," meaning "The Promised Land." She Is the au thor of a book of Chinook songs, from which the above were taken. She is one of our leading Chinook authori ties and a clever poet. She has a pleasing voice and received quite an ovation. The ceremonies were some what shortened by the threatening weather, but T. T. Geer, Mrs. Edyth Tozier Wetherred and Mrs. Minerva H. Eaton each delivered a two-minute speech and of course the quartet came in at the proper intervals, as did also P. H. r Some Will Not Be Ilnngry Soon. Everybody had a grand time, at least that was what "everybody" said, so far as I know. Some of them (I will men tion no names) will not need anything more to eat until the next change of the moon say In a fortnight. Yes, 1 will mention Albert Tozier, because 1 am not afraid of him. Albert will sure ly not be hungry before his duties as Mayor of the campgrounds at the State Fair begin, along about the 'steenth ot September; he won't be able to look a crawfish In the face before Christmas. About the teacher who did not know the story of Champoeg; would it not ba well for all of us to know more about the early history of Oregon? In the Boston harbor stands the Bunker Hill monument, erected to commemorate a victory of foe over foe a victory pur chased with blood. A great victory and a bloodless one was won 72 years ago today at Champoeg. The little monu ment there erected shows the niggardli ness with which we have treated the bravest band of pioneers ever written of on history's page; is the day com ing when we can, or will, do justice to their memories? A day when all will know the story of Champoeg in every detail? Let it be hoped that such jus tice is done before the children of our emancipators pass away.

BIG Preparations Being; Made to Care for Hundreds of Y'laltora Japanese Parade la to Be Keature. PASCO, Wash., Jlay 1. (Special.) Every one in Pasco is busy preparing for the big celebration May 4. Never before has a celebration aroused as much enthusiasm here as has this one. The committee having the affair in charge for the Chamber of Commerce is holding nightly meetings to perfect the plans for the day. Decorators arrived yesterday and begun the work of decorating the streets. Wires are being strung from the cluster light posts the full length of Lewis and Fourth streets and flags are being hung from the wires. These streets will be the main thoroughfares for the big parade and bridal proces sion. Every mail brings wora of persons who are coming to celebrate the open ing of the rivers. A letter from the Lewiston, Idaho, Chamber of Commerce said that it would expect Pasco to be able to house and accommodate at least 500 persons from that city who would be here for the day and night of May 4. The hotels are filled in ad vance for that night and supplying rooms for the visitors has resolved itself into a matter for the local resi dents to handle. A committee from the Women's Civic Club began a canvas of the city today to list all available rooms. Additional features have been added to the street parade by securing about 50 cow-girls to ride in the procession. Each will carry a small banner repre senting some town of the Inland Umpire. Half of these girls will come from Kennewick and the rest will be from Pasco. In the evening the Japanese popula tion of the city will give a parade which will be typical of their native customs, carrying many Japanese lan terns and dressing in their native costume. The local marching club, which has been unier the direction of Dr. Fewell for the past month in preparation for the parade, will aid the Japanese in their parade. The mem bers of the marching club will appear in white uniforms in both the morning and evening parades. After the Japanese parade the crowd will assemble . at Clark and Lewis streets, where a Japanese speaker will make an address, following a short talk by Attorney M. L. Driscoll, of Pasco. The city library and the City Hall will be made into rest rooms for the day and will be in charge of city attendants. The weather man promised good weather for that day. Every business man in, town, with possibly two exceptions, has signed an agreement to close his place of busi ness during the afternoon anj go to Kennewick to celebrate. It is thought that all finally will sign the agreement. Then Kennewick plans on closing up and coming to Pasco for the evening. The Chamber of Commerce has made arrangements for a special escort for each of the bride's maids who come to Pasco to participate in the allegorical wedding. NAMES IN CORNERSTONE Otlier School Helios Stored Away Daring Ceremonies t Albany. ALBANY, Or., May 1. (Special.) When" the box which was placed In the cornerstone of the new public school building in this city, laid yesterday with elaborate ceremonies, is ooened teveral decades nencej many old resi dents of Albany c-in show from its records th!t they were school children on April 30, 1915. A complete list of the pupils of the Aloany schools was deposited in the box. The box also contains a list ot the members of the Board of Education and of the teachers. Anions the other articles placed in the box were copies of high school annuals and papers, cop ies of Albany newspapers, rostei s of city and county officers, pictures of the Albany High School bald and or chestra and various high school classes and i.i H'trh School hrsermll team.. ONLY ONE ENTERS RACE MR. LOCKWOOD IS SOLE RIVAL OF DR. SOMMER FOR BOARD. Attitude Totvard Mr. Alderman May Be Ismuc in " School Election Incum bent Opnoaea Superintendent. There is only one avowed candidate in the race as yet to contest the place of Dr. E. A. Sommer, School Director, whose term expires at the end of the school year in June, but it is possible other candidates may spring' up, as the date of the school election approaches. Samuel 1. Lockwood has given notilica tion -to the School Board that he will be a candidate. Dr. Sommer will also enter the race for another term. The election of one Director will be held on the third (Saturday in June, the lttth. The term the successful Director will serve is for rive years. Both, can didates are well known to Portland peo ple. Dr. Sommer, the incumbent, is completing his first term on the School Board. Mr. Lockwood, the aspirant for the position, is vice-president and general manager of the Columbia Life & Trust Company. Ono issue is likely sharply to divide the candidates, It is expected, and that is their attitude toward City School Superintendent Alderman. Dr. Sommer has opposed the Superintendent during the past year and it was known he was unfriendly to his re-election recently. Superintendent Alderman was elected for only one year, and the Director to be elected next month will have con siderable to say about Superintendent Alderman's continued tenure of oifice if the issue is raised again. The attitude toward Superintendent Alderman likely will be an issue, and it is natural to suppose that friends of the head of tne school system will ally themselves with Mr. Lockwood or some other candidate who may enter the field, while those unfriendly to him will rally to the support of Dr. Sommer. The coming election will be tha tirst choice of a School Director to come under the new law, which changes the hours of voting. PolLs were open for merly for a school election from 2 to 6 P. M.. but twice the lenuth of time given for voting heretofore will be available this year, for the polls wilt open at noon and close at it P. M. This, it is expected, will increase the vote largely, as it will enable working peo ple, who find it impossible to get away to vote during the afternoon, to east their ballots after the day's work ends. The law also provides that voters at the school election must be registered, which has not heretofore been neces sary, and also each must vote in his own precinct, instead of at any voting place in the city, as has been the for mer custom. The corrupt practices act will also govern the election. It will be a mis demeanor to solicit votes on election day or to provide autos for the con veyance of voters to tho polling places. This latitude has formerly been given to candidates for School Director, and it has been said that some Directors In the past have owed their election to the diligence of themselves and their friends in conveying voters to the polls in their automobiles. SCHOOL CONTRACTS GIVEN Board Slakes Awards for Work on Xcw Kennedy Building. Contracts for work on the new Ken nedy School were awarded by the Sehnol Board at a special meeting Friday afternoon. John Alrneter was succexs ful in his bid for general work on the building, which amounts to $:i.r. Tha contract for heating and ventilating, amounting to IKini, was given to J. 1'.

Elizabeth Burroughs was elected assistant English teacher at the Washington High School and Eva B. Parker was elected aa a teacher In the Thompson Sehonl. CITY IS URGED TO DON DISTINGUISHED GARB Opera Singer at Baker Thinks -That Fountains, Statues and Fine Stone Vases on Heights Would Make Portland Notable in United States. BY MISS UKMA IRIVKLIJ. THIS is one of the greatest pleas ures of my life, to be able to ex press my delight and "give my impressions to the people of Portland, whom we have found so sympathetic and appreciative of our artistic en deavor during our opera season at the Baker Theater. After passing many weeks in every large city in the United States, the Portland climate, and above all the pure crystal drinking water, so rarely found in cities, makes a delightful sojourn.- Then, too, the position and view is beyond parallel, excepting, perhaps, the famous city of Perugia, In Italy, where come thousands of tourists every year. This city is entirely built on the heights, even much higher than Port land Heights. "The best hotels stand on the edge of it, overlooking the val ley toward Florence. Why could not Portland draw the eyes of all the tourists of the United States by adorning her nature a little differently from other cities of our country? If there should be on Port land Heights, a few beautifully set fountains and some fine stone vases and statues to frame the view, it would remind one much of the famous gar dens of Mount Pincio, in Home. The tide of travel surely will be tre mendous this next year and thousands of European tourists will turn this way, and I dare say Portland can, and will, amaze everyone. It has been so fortunate that the peo pie have accepted us as we had hoped and intended. We feel the strain and the effect of the misery going on in Europe, both financially and spiritually and to be able to give and accept r Genla TrlvelH. With Italian tjirand Opera Company. through our art, under such unfortu nate circumstances, should go down in opera history, for I do not believe that there is another opera company in the world, unless it is in Buenos Ayres, that is having as successful and happy a season as ours.
