Euitok Dkmocuat: Thinking a few words from the writer, who is now camped at this place, would ntcrest a few readers of the Dxmocrat, I will endeavor to give a brief outline of our trip here: We left Albany 0:1 August 2nd and our party consisted of the following three persons: First, an old gentleman who's pleasant smiies and gentle ways and looks are most familiar to those who have been stricken down with sickness and have lojked to him for comfort and strength that they might live to bless him' for his many acts of kindness. He is now looking after the comforts of the horses on this trip. Tho next is a young student fresh from the Madison Street school. He joined the party on the tip that be might make a geographical sur vey of the country over which we pass that he illicit be able to give free lec tures to the other students during the next tsrui of school upon the great re sources of this wonderful country. He t now employed in angling for the wily trout and in gathering camp wood, wash ing dishes and throwing pebbles at the chip niunks. The 3rd one of the party is the w riler, whose object is to see all he can, cojk enough to keep the crowd from getting hungry and to make all out of the trip he ran. On August 2nd, we hitciiel up old Bill and Dan and the writer mounted the seat and took the tin in band. After wait ing about one-half hour we started and kept going until noon, we struck camp for dinner on the lianks of the Calipooia near Kendall's bridge. We arrivtd at Mu l.'.y station about 6:30 and camped for the nighu The next morning, after hitching up Bill and Dan, we concluded to s;l upon the seat and bold the lines for just 25 minutes before we was ready to start, then we went and kept going until 11 :3d when we pulled in and camped for dinner on the tanks of the McKenzie nearCoburg. After two hours rest we hitched up and left immediately, which surprised us, and at 6 o'clock we went into camp one-fourth mile below J a per .a village on the Oregonian K. K. The next morning ol 1 Bill and Dan moved off nice ly and at 6 o'clock found cs in camp at w hat is known as the lUakely palce. Here the road became more hilly and our drives were shorter. On rialunlay night we camped five miles from ihs Kit t n springs, not caring to travel on. Sun day, we bitched up and drove over to the springs and camped until Monday after ton. enjoying a hot Islh. There were about twenty-five campers tbere. The road is quite rough from wbere it leaves Use old Military load into the springs, bat the springs are nicely located and could be made a fine resort. Before go ng into the springs we unloaded at Sir. Hiil's and as toe road is quite rough and hiiiy from there to the summit we made two" trips with our load, hnaiiy camping at the summ:t house, near tiie line of Lane and Klamath counties, which i run by Mr. Kirfon and where we paid 1 1 .CO fl a busbei of oats. The next day Ueiug iMtlurday we climbed the moan tain, which is f.Kjr miles long, and reached Summit Lake at 4 o'clock and camped for the ciibt there. On Sunday morning we left for Crescent Lake, eight miles below, and camped until Wednes day morning and spent the lime in fish ing and hunting. This is alwautifu! lake and a fine place to camp if any om doesn't mind t? get a liilie sand in bis craw. We leit t!ie lake on Wednesday morning and I'.iil aad lan having cu re! g-x.1 pasture and Mark Hannah i.Odoa!, started off nicely. We camped at Big Medows on the East Deechulee. weniv miles from Use lake . the second day at the Morbt ranch.

The next morning we broke camp and had traveled about eight miles when our at tention was attracted bv the sound of horses running and on looking a round saw a young ladv about 13 years old and a boy about 10 daah np to the wagon, their horses foaming, and before we could say a word or hold up our hands, the young ladv said: "We want that pap you stole.5 Well that was a corker so we stopped anl in order to convince the little maid tbat we did not have their purp Uie writer asked ber to examine the contents of the wagoa, after several minutes she said she was convinced that we did not have the purp and tbev rode awav. e started on our roaa neaoeu tor McCartv's ranch twenty miles ahead where we arrived aboot 4 p. m., and camped for the n'ght, McCartv's not be ing at home we had tree hay and lodging and plenty of water which is verr scarce outliers.
