Park Bureau to
Distribute Roses
Streets Contiguous to Parks Will Be
Beautified rirst and Seat of City
- Fast aa Possible.
To make Portland truly the city of
roses the municipal park bureau has
arranged to distribute 25,000 yearling
rose bushes to all who will agree to
plant them in the parking strips along
the streets In front of their residences.
The distribution began this morn
ing and the plants will be de
livered by the park bureau free of
charge immediately upon notification
in writing, provided the seekers agree
to stipulations imposed by the bureau.
Superintendent of Parks Convlll and
Landscape Architect Mische have
worked out a plan for the planting of
the rose bushes to secure a proper
color scheme. While the park offi
cials realize that only a start can be
made this year from the available
stock, they hope that the streets con
tiguous to the parks can be taken care
of and the scheme extended until the
city is generally beautified.

Ztffort In Behalf of Kan and Maaaures
Contrasted With Selfish, Motives
of &ther Papers.
Willamlna, , Or.. Oct 31. To
the Editor of The Journal - For
some time I have been thinking to
write a letter acknowledging my ap
preciation of the broad and tolerant
spirit of your paper. It seems to me
that The Journal ia the fairest repre
sentative of the people -of any paper
In the state. Avoiding alike the ex
treme conservatism of its leading com
petitor and the extreme radicalism of
the other type.
X am not a Democrat, but in fairness
to Chamberlain and West, be It said
that they have worked earnestly and
honestly for the people's Interest as
they see It. As for Booth, the fact of
Ills acquisition of such tremendous
timber holdings is, in itself, prima
facia evidence of unfair; methods in
obtaining it.
As for Withycc-mbe, If tha speech as
resorted at HUlHbnro in a fair ... mi.
of his oratory it sounds to me like the
ku oi a lunatic or tne maiden effort
of a school boy. West's characteriza
tion Of the Or?nrHan aa "PnirinAiii
Piper and Plutocratic Plttock," hit the
nau on xne neaa squarely. Never did
the Oregonlan line up on the side of
ine piain people, but wherever the "in
terests" were concerned it rushed mad
ly to the fray and reeled off (mis) in
formation bv the vnrrt
The Journal is the fairest to all
classes; it represents neither extreme,
but seeks to reflect the concensus of
Opinion Of its readers: it Is hrmullir
tolerant, but firm and unyielding in its4
auvocacy i men and measures, and It

There is altogether too much effort
on the part of a certain political
'clique" to , belittle and misrepresent
