THE OREGON DAILY JOURNAL, PORTLAND, FRIDAY .EVENING. JUNE : 12. 19C3. t mm i picnic G iris and Boys Once More, Acred Men and Women Camp Beneath 'Trees Ah nual Business Sessions Concluded' With Election. With basket or their arms filled with the fried chicken and ' th old fashioned doughnuts . and meat sand wiches and the. other things that peo ple eat at basket pinnies and that no body knows how , to cook like the peo rle who have 'cooked over campf Ires, the1 pioneers went . to the- Oaks this xnornlns and will spend" the day out of doors around 100 different -spreads. Those young folks who think their elders don't know how to, enjoy picnics should have been down to watch the 7 uo or so members or- the Pioneers' sooiety climb upon - the, trains bound for the Oaks and should have been out at the pleasure park to see them climb off and race for the best spots on the grass and under the trees along the river bank. There were shouts of laughter and the girls they were all girls and boys the girls made the boys carry the baskets and help set the dishes and they all admitted they had never eaten so much before, at least not since they caught their first glimpse t uregon oaa trees arter tneir travels of weeks through the pines, some 60 years ago. ; . v, . .: .j-. ' Badge Honored Xveiyirhere, The badges of the nloneers were hon ored in all parts of the park and fol lowing the picnic1 meal the visitors had a good time going inrougn tr.e various concessions and resting on the benches and lawns, watching the peo ple in the park and the boats on the river. .- - . , , Last night's business session of the Pioneer society was very largely at tended and . at s both yesterday after noon's and last night's meetings much, Kiifijnaaa : t .

Mayor Lane spoke of the ne cessity for a meeting place for such gatherings as that of the Pioneer so ciety and said that hewas anxious to have an auditorium constructed to pro vide a public convention hall. It was a disgrace, said the mayor, that the pioneers should one. year have to be roasted 'la the Armory - and the next rorcea to- seek shelter in the streets. The annual address was delivered by M, C Oeorge, '61, and was an eloquent tribute to the men who came over the uregon trail in the '40a and '60s. Resolutions .. were passed expressing the sympathy of the sooiety with the families of those members who have died during. the past year, Resolutions were also adopted and ordered sent to the United States con gress urging the appropriation of the 860.000 that Esra Meeker and other pioneers have been'- attempting to se cure for the erection of monuments and markers for the old Oregon trail. ; Meeker Tails Experiences. Old-time' muslo and several Interest ing recitations and poems were given at both sessions and helped in the en tertainment of the pioneers. Esra Meeker told of some of his experiences on his recent trip over the trail by ox team as far as Washington and New York, and the- orchestra.-'choir and au dience united in singing "Auld Lang Syne" at the doss of the meeting last night.

Montana's two Indian reservations for the opening Of .which provision has been made will not be thrown open to settlers until 1909 at the earliest.

There are 18 appraisers at work but It -will take until some time In Novem ber to finish the estimating. - The Fort Peck reservation Is about 80 ml'es long and 0 miles wide, em bracing 1,776,000 acres of unallotted land. .This reservation Is traversed by the Great Northern railway,- and accord ing to the latest statistics there are a little over 1,700 Indians on it having trimu ngnts. une reclamation service,, it is believed. will install an Irrigation system near the Missouri river, embrac ing something like 80.000 acres of fertile land, and which will probably be lim ited to 80-scre tracts for settlers.

For 30 years he has been unearthing high grade ore with but little -exertion, and it was rarely that he was off a lead. While others prospected day after day and finally gave up for lack of grub, Andy has run into something good with amas ing regularity. It Is estimated by con servative mining men that he .has taken out at least (80,000, which, for a single handed miner, is a remarkable record. Fickle fortune. It would, seem. Is still with Anderson, which is proved by the fact that while strolling over, the hills last Sunday he came upon a large well defined lead which assays $200 a ton.
