TOLEDO, LINCOLN COUNTY, OREGON, FRIDAY, JULY 17, 1914
NUMBER 23
w&nntp
Newport-
The committee appointed to make
arrangements for the entertian
ment of the newspaper and rail
road men that come in by special
train Thursday evening consisted of
the following gentlemen: Thomas
Leese, George Blancbard, S. G.
Irvin, J. T. riant, M. Wygant and
R. A. Bensell. The newspapermen
were guests of the railroad officials,
brought in Jo see the condition of
the track and to spend a day at
Newport. A splendid banquet was
given the party at The Abbey. In
aiditicn to the twenty editors and
r lilrcad officials soir.e thirty of the
citizens of Newport and Toledo
were invited to the banquet which
was an elegant and sumptuous
aTair. The large dining room was
brilliantly lighted , atiJ the tables
wjte decorated with evergreens
nnd beautiful flowers, the rose pre
diminatine. Hon. R. A Deneell
aitcdas master of ceremonies as
well as toast master. Mr. Bensell
is an expert as a presiding officer.
After supper two hours were scent
in short, numerous talks by the
editors and John M. Scott, general
passenger agent of the S. P com
pany. Each speaker had something
good to say of Newport and its
beautiful surroundings. The most
interesting address, however, was
given by Addison Bennett, stall
corrctper.dent of the Oregonian.
This tpeech should have special
mention. Mr. Bennett being a
man of extensive observations could
speak with authority. In compar
ing the state of Washington with
that of Oregon he said the former
had ten times the wealth and pop
ulation that the latter had because
of the enterprise of the citizens of
Washintgon, and the splendid sys
tem she had of advertising. Forty
yiars ago Washington was hardly
known while Oregon was considered
one of the best states of the Union.
Mr. Scott was pleased to announce
that the track on the Corvallis &
Eastern was in splendid condition
and there was no danger whatever
in trains pasting over it. He said
a sleeping and observation car
would be put on the road between
hire and Portland for the months
of July and August. This service
will commence next Sunday, the
19th. The train will leave Tort
land Sunday morning at 1 :30 and
will reach Yaquina at 10 a. m.
Sinday; returning, the car will
leave Yaquina at 6 p. m. Sunday
and reach Portland at 7:30 Monday
morning. The car will receive
pissengera after 10 o'clock Satur
day nieht and will leave Portland
at 1:30 Sunday morning. The
Newport people have tried to secure
this service for many years, but
now, through the help of the S. P.
tiey will aucceed. This arrange
ment will give a splendid service
fjr those who wish to come to New
port. Mr. Scott said a third more
p:ople would cerne to Newport this
year than last and the automobile
trawl will be doubled. Last year
more than 60,000 people visited
Newport during the season. The
round tirp from Portland will re
main the same as heretofore, S6.25.
The ticket is good for six months.
This is the cheapest rate of any
coast road. The party had a good
time and went away feeling well
pleased with their entertainment
and thought Newport was a royal
host and that she- would be the
greatest seaside resort on the Pa
cific coast.
The fishing schooner Daisy came
in Saturday with 30,030 pounds of
halibut. The most of this catch
vill have to be put in cold storage
because the home market is not
large enough Jo consume it. It is
not so hard to catch the fUn as
it is to find a marki-t for them.
The povernrrent fading schooner
Alhatros, ia now at the Newport
halibut beds. The largest amount
of these fish are being being tuken
tu Seattle and ether markets.
After partaking of a sumptuous
banquet at Toledo prepared for
them by the brothers there, some
seventy-five Elk came to Newport,
arriving about midnight Saturday.
The introduction into the city being
the sitting ofT of 6,000 firecrackers.
This noise awoke tho sleet ing doni
j!cn of Newport. At first it was
thought a Japanese warship had
turned loose on tho city, but when
we saw the tall, white stovepipe
hats and tho long, white ulitet
coots we knew what was up, Ir
was the "Best People on Earth"
COUNTY NEWS
entering the city. The white coats
and hats were emblematical of
innocence and purity. There was a
general hustilng and bustling about
the Abbey to provide places for
their accommodation. Those that
could not be provided for at the
Abbey were sent to nearby rooming
houses. Soon all had places to
stop and the next day was put in
strolling on the beach and bathing
in the natatoiium and viewing the
city. They spoke of having had a
good time and telt very grateful
for the splendid entertainment they
had both at Toledo and Newport.
Saturday and Sunday over seven
hundcrd people came to Newport.
The day was fine and less wind
with some mist in the morning,
which cbtcjred the sun and mad: it
most pleasant for the people.
Prof. Joseph Emery and his wife
are on a visit at Newport, the
guests of the Abbey. They ure
veiling their son, W. G. Emery,
who is a resident of Newport.
Prof. Emery was formerly one of
the teachers in the O.A.C. for 18
years. He spoke of the wonderful
growth of that institution. Last
year the enrollment was 2.300 stu
dents and the valuation of thi
property is one million and a half
dollcrs and it employs one hundred
and forty teachers. Prof. Emery
will return ts Henleyville, Califor
aia, where he is pastor of the First
Methodist church.
A banquet was given the drag
fists at The Abbey Tuesday evening
at 8:30. About two hundred and
fifty of the pill makers were pres
ent and partook of the sumptuous
repast. Dr. M. M. Davis made the
address of welcome and the irre
pressible Fred Dawson gave the
response It was altogether fitting
that Dr. Davis should give the ad-
ess .f welcome because he was the
first president of the s.ciety. A.
W. Allen, secretary of the associa
tion acted as toastmastcr. Dr.
Witbycombe was present and de
livered a short address. The
Doctor has a good many friends in
Newport and Lincoln county. The
sestion of five days will be held in
the Opera House. A good time is
anticipated by all present. It is
the 25th anniversary the Silver
Anniversary of the society.
