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-.

benches and lawns, watching the peo

' Mayor Lane delivered the address of
welcome at yesterday afternoon's meet
ing, and the response was made by J.
D. Lee. 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.

days ago with four children, two hoys,
14 and IT veara of are. respectively.
and two girls of 8 months and t years,
respectively. The woman and the boys
walked ail the way to Eugene from
Portland along the county roads, carry
ing the babies and their effects in a
two wheeled push cart. They have
camped on the outskirts of Eugene for
several days, ana tneir squa.nu condi
tion attracted the attention of the au.
thorities. It was deemed best to take
the two younger children . away from
the woman, as It was evident they were
not being taken care of in a proper
manner, and accordingly the local repre
sentative of the Boys' and Girls' Aid
society took them. Their mother has
been cited to anDear in the juvenile
court today to show cause why a guar-

The woman says she is the mother

RESERVATION OPENING
0 WILL BE POSTPONED
(Special Dispatch to The JourniL)
Helena, Mont, June 12. 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. These reservations
are the Fort Peck and the Flathead in
northeastern and northwestern Montana,
respectively.
In the Flathead more than 1,000,000
acres of land will be disposed of. W. F.
Hubbart. one of the members of the
Flathead appraising commission, says
In his opinion the reservation cannot be
opened for settlement before next May.
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.
There are some 'tracts of lignite coal
which will furnish.? excelicnt fuel. In
the Fort Peck reservation it is probable
that with the exceDtlon of the 80.000
acres ref srred to, dry land farming will
tie practiced to a great extent,
This will also be tried on portions of
the Flathead reservation,. . where the'
ranifall Is not very great The Flathead
reservation is noted for its orchard a

THIS MINER HAS
: ; . ONLY GOOD LUCK
' (Special Dispatch' te The Journal )
'Livingston, Mont, June It. Fortune
lias been kind to Andy Anderson. 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.
The find is In Goodrich gulch, and min
ers have tramped over It for years.

quests, because it has. been our desire frcm the first to place these shares in the hands
of those persons of moderate- means ;those who NEED the enormous dividends wc
"will be able, we know, to pay. our stockholders but the fact is that present indica-

the first or fifteenth of July will clean us out. Again; shares sold even at those dates

Ve are confident that we shall pay as early as the

We shall be disappointed if we do not return more than 200 per cent We be
lieve that our dividends, will go up to 400 per cent, once we are in full swingi and that
this will prove itself the most profitable mining venture ever launched in Oregon. Our
mines, it will be remembered, are in the great Florence flacer Fields of Idaho county,
Idaho. It was on account of the fame of this district thatthe Florence mines in Gold
