The value. 140.000. perhaps expresses to the lsy mind the worth of the pic tures more than any description. The coloring, prospective and scenlo effects set forth by the painstaking work of Mr. Klser, st once Impress upon the visitor the true artlstlo value of the plcturea No detail has been lost sight of, yet none obtrudes upon the general effect In such a way as to destroy the harmony and scope of the artist's con ception. The pictures of Crater lake at once catch the visitor's eye by the wonder ful blue shading. One person was heard to comment upon the deep shading in one picture, but wss told by a friend who had seen the lake that It was Im possible to color too deeply this marvel of nature's handiwork. Klser haa not gone too far in his portrayal of Ore gon scenes, but it is hard to bring persons no nsve not seen tne Pisces Photo graphed to believe that such coloring exists. Only when Oregon's hla-hwava and byways are opened up to comfort able traveling will the world learn of the actual truth of Riser's pictures. im nts remarxs. Mayor unt aeia: 1 have been called upon to be present st the opening of the Klser exhibit, a collection of photographs of the moun tain scenery of the state of Oregon. It Is a pleasure and an honor; we owe, as a matter of Justice, many words of thanks to tha gentleman who has risked his life and been to great expense and trouble to procure such an elegant col lection of views as we see here todav: and he haa many more which are not on exhibition at this time. In his efforts as an artist MrfClser haa become, as a matter of fact a public benefactor to the stste. His work will live after him. nd will bring great good to the state: for an exhibit of this kind cannot be made in the eastern states. People In the east do not comprehend that such acenerv as this exists: thev would not believe It If we tried to de scribe it to them by word of mouth; if we maae oain to u tney would still doubt They might even dispute the work of the painter, ssylng that It wss the product of his Imagination . But these cold facts as they are presented by the camera, a scientific and accurate instrument. Is absolutely convincing, snd the result is astonishing to those who are, unacquainted with Oregon. Such an exhibit throughout the eaat will be of great ad van tare to the atate: it will bring us tourists, hundreds and thousands of people who travel all over the world in the summer season, manv or mem viamng piacea mil nave no such scenery as we have here." 0 OTCAPreT A STORi, rir.
