NEW GEOGRAPHIES.
The State University Vital Factor
in Bringing People West
PORTLAND Ore. Mar, 9,-Prof-essor
R. S. Tarr, occuying the chair
of Physical Geography at Cornell
University, it the author of a igcogra
lhy now used a text book in a
vat nuiiibcr of schools throughout
the United Statei, and in revising
this book is paying especial attention
to the development of Oregon and
Washington. The Portland Com
mercial Club ha furnished Professor
Tarry very complete data on Oregon,
together with a number of thorough
ly representative picture, and gen
uine interval on the part of the author
ii apparent from a request for further
photograph of specific ubjccti.
Washington's commercial bodies will
ice that the "Evergreen State" i
properly taken care of.
The I.oi Angeles Times, the great
er paper of the Southwest; include
in it market report grain quotation
for the Pacific Coast. It is signifi
cant that only Portland and Taconia
appear in this connection. This is
also true of San Francisco papers.
No section of the Union surpasses
the Pacific Northwest in the excel
lence of its public schools, and Ore
gon communities are manifesting
their interest in the State University
by urging upon the State the most
liberal appropriations for the main
tenance of this institution in a way
that will enable it to reach its highest
efficiency. This was the meat of a
resolution adopted by the Portland
Commercial Club recently. Public
bodies throughout the Northwest ap
preciate that institutions of higher
learning are a factor of the greatest
importance to F,astcrn people who
contemplate making their homes here.
, California people are planning to
return the visits made that state by
the people of Oregon and Washing
tonprobably the ; first excursions
will be made at the time of Portland's
R6se Festival in June. At even this
early "date,' too; the Alaska-Yukon-
1'acific Exposition at Seattle is being
much discussed in the South.
A series of meetings under the aus
pices of the Oregon Development
League are to be held this week in
Ashland, Medford, Roscburg, Grants
Pats, Albany, and Stayton. lone
held an enthusiastic meeting last
week that lasted until two o'clock in
the morning. Seventy new member
were taken into the Commercial Club
there.
Eastern people are already begin
ning to arrive on the Spring colonist
rate. The disposition is to seek the
smaller towns and the majority of
tiioHC looking for country places in
tend to enter fruit growing or dairy
ing, two industries especially attrac
tive in Washington and Oregon,
where they bring greater returns
t'.ian in any other part of the country

No Use to Die '
"1 have found out that there is no
use to die of lung trouble as long at
you can get Dr. King's New Dis
covery," says Mrs. J. P. White, of
Rushboro, Pa. "I would not be alive
today only for that wonderful medi
cine. It loosens up a cough quicker
than anything else, and cures lung
diesase even after the case is pro
nounced hopeless." This most reliable
remedy for coughs and colds, la
grippe, asthma, bronchitis and hoarse
ness, it sold under guarantee at Chas.

A Lltsrary Bandit.
A literary man was traveling In
French mountain! when on a lonely
read he was stopped by three high
waymen, his life threatened and bis
valuable domauded. Ills literary In
stincts were to the fore even In his
extremity, and half unconsciously be
burst forth with an appropriate coup
lot, quoted from some obscure French
poet.
"Ilold!" cried the leader of the high
waymen.. ".My comrades, this gentle
man Is acquainted with the works of
oar friend M. So-and-so! lie Is, then,
our brother!" t
j The purse was returned, courtesies
extended, aud the traveler and three
bandits adjourned to an Inn near by
ind spent a pleasant evening
