In her own defense yesterday. Mrs
Helen M. Geren. on trial on the ehargi
of securing a loan of X2000 from Miss
Mary J. Flynn through fraud, testifk-d
that the alleged fraudulent misrepr?.
sentations were "all a mistake." Sim
said that the, wrong lot was named in
the mortgage because the stakes n
the. lots were changed arid showed the
number of lot 7 on lot 8.
Lot 8 had a house and lot 7 was va
cant, and it is alleged that 'Mrs. Geren,
R. -Li.- Mathison and J. H. Tipton se
cured the loan " by pretending tiie
mortgare was on lot 8 and included
the house," while the mortgage shows
lot 7 as t..e property.
Deputy District Attorneys Alaguire
and Murpl y introduced the testimony
of W. R. and YV Z. Hartrook, con
tractors, to show" that at the time
the stake on lot 8 showed a number' 3
Instead of, a number 7 as alleged. To
rebut the testimony of Mrs. Geren
that there were no liens or charces
against the house at the time, testi
mony was -introduced to show that a
lien had been filed prior f the dave
of the mortgage and a suit was pend
ing at the time.
R..L. Mathison, her father, 75 years
old jointly indicted with her. made
the defense that he was a mere agent
and knew nothing of the details of
the deal. .Tipton will be tried on the
same charge at the conclusion of the
present trial. Taking of testimony
ended yesterday afternoon and the
case will go to the jury tomorrow.

yesterday had her eighty-ninth valen

eighty-ninth birthday, too, for it w
just 89 years ago that her parents
received her' into the world as-a gift
from St. Valentine.
Mrs. Mary A. Thompson, physician,
club woman, and suffragist is the one
to be congratulated. Unlike most of
the unfathomable sex she admits her
age; she has tb, for otherwise no ono

"Look at my hand," she said, "there
is not a tremor in It." . And there
wasn't. It was a firm, smooth, strong
hand with none of the' palsy of tha
aged. "It is a physician's hand." sh'i

She held out her hand again; there
wasn't a quiver. To the touch it was
firm and strong like that of the old
fashioned country doctor. Her silvery
hair; and time-marked face may have
shown the passing of the years but
that hand seemed to shout out the
strength and vitality of this young.

Though the Panama-Pacific exposi
tion Is a year away, it behooves Orer
gon to .begin to lay her plans so that
the visitors to the fair who come or
go by way of Oregon and that means
most of those, who come from east of
the Rocky mountains may see Oregon
properly, for tosee our big state is
even mbre important than to. see Ore
gon's big city.
How - much benefit Oregon will get
from the hundreds of thousands, of
well-to-do tourists and the other even
more important hundrsds of thousands
of homeseekers who take advantage
of the fair , to spy out the land as
their future home depends largely on
the action to be taken within the next
few months.
Ashland is our southern gateway.
Here we can welcome those who re
turn to. the east by way of the north
ern route and here we can speed the
departing guest, who goes to San Fran
cisco by the Oregon way.
At Ashland the trains change crews
and engines. Here a minimum wait
of 20 minutes is made. For six
rrionths' litiudreda of passengers daily
will get off the trains at Ashland to
enjoy a brealli of fresh air and take
a turn up and down the platform.
A well prepared land products ex
hibition can be made wonderfully ef
fective for good to Oregon If main
tained at Ashland. While in 20 min
utes no careful study can be made of
Oregon s products, nevertheless an im
presslon can be created, and mankind
is a creature of impulses and impres-
10ns.
Opportunities Sat Forth.
Here an adequate force of enthusi
astic lovers of Orejton can make the
casual- visitor decide to stay over
either en route to Portland or after
arrival at Portland to see something
of the state. Literature, fruit and
flowers can be given to those who visit
the booth. 'Literature can be- placed
on the trains welcoming the incoming
guest or Inviting the departing visitor
to conje again and stay longer. It is
Oregon's opportunity and should not
be neglected. The plan Is receiving
both brickbats and bouquets though the
Douquets rar outnumber tne brickbats
In feeling out the people of the
state on the plan, Tom Richardson has
received scores of Jetters of indorse
ment and some opposing, the plan.
J. S. Cooper, of Independence, writes
"I am heartily in favor of a stato ex
hibit at Ashland in 1915. I believe it
will do more to attract people to the
farming industry of this state than
any other one' thing that could be
done." ,
E. D. Timms, of this city, in writing
of the plan, says: In company with
a traveling chum, a Kentucky boy, I
spent eight months traveling over
southern and central California. We
then started north to 6ee the northwest
country Oregon and Washington. I
well .remember the remarks which
everybody who travels knows are com
mon just before reaching the port that
marks the state line to the effect. "We
are getting into Oregon, get out your
umbrellas," "Watch out for rain, we will
soon be in Oregon." I will never for
get my happy disappointment when
the train stopped at Ashland. It was
Pioneer day. All the country folks
were gathered at the station. The
ruddy appearance of the people es
pecially the women was a revelation
and a surprise, the fruit, too, sur
prised me. The impression made on
my mind gave me a strong desire to
come to Oregon to live.
"If this state can arrange a per
manent exhibit at Ashland it will make
a great hit with the traveling public.
If we could have a fine exhibit mere
with the bountiful natural view that
surrounds Ashland the whole thing
would make a psyschological hit. It
would come Just at a time when every
body coming this way would be primed
for a lasting impression.
"I feel certain that money judicious
ly spent in this way would be well
spent for the state of Oregon."
Opposition to Plan.
That not all are in favor of a state
appropriation of $50,000 for a. perma
nent exhibit at Ashland is shown by
the following excerpts from a letter
from Judd S. Fish, secretary of The
Dalles Business Men's association:
"Personally I do not see the great
advantage of an exhibit of- Oregon
products at Ashland or any other lo
cality, if we exhibit at the San Fran
cisco fair, as everything we produce
will surely be on display there. If
not. Oregon will be poorly represented
