UEER'S VISIT.
Re Spent
Few Bonn in
JXventng;.
tbe City Lust
It ien't eucb an easy matter for a state
official, especially tbe governor of the
state, to visit a city, or even pass
through, without the news being spread j
broadcast and a crowd being at the boat
or train to greet him. And so a little
bird whispered to The Chbonjci.e, just
aB we were going to press, that Gov.
Geer was on board the Dalles City, and
that family journal in turn told its read
ers that we were to be honored by the
presence of our governor. Consequent
ly, when the steamer pulled in at the
dock, tbe executive was surprised to see
a large number of people awaiting his
arrival, and to find a carriage in waiting;
but, in spite of his desire to pass through
the city incognito, he accepted the in
evitable and permitted Mayor Noian and
Otis Patterson to capture him and take
bim at-once to the club 100ms, where be
was received by a number of citizans.
Had the news of his coming been an
nounced early in the day and more gen
erally known, he would have been en
thusiastically received, for Governor
Geer is one of the most popular execu
tives our state has ever known, being
an unassuming whole-souled man, and
at the eame time sound in his doctrines
and as able as sound. He won the
hearts of Dalles people upon bis visit
during the campaign, and proved to
them that he was genuine. However,
the Commercial Club band gave him a
sweet musical welcome, and after two
selections by them, Mayor Nolan in a
short epeech welcomed the governor and
introduced him from the club portico to
the audience below.
' Governor Geer then made a very short
epeech. among other things saying that
when be contemplated bis trip to , visit
his father in Cove, Union county, and
in fact, until five minutes before he left
Portland it was his intention to take the
train and pass right through The Dalles;
but on second thought, remembering
that he had not sailed up the Columbia
and viewed its beautiful scenery for
thirty-three yeare, he decided to make
he trip on the boat. He then spoke of the
locks at the Cascades and the wonderful
work which the government had un
dertaken and 'accomplished fn ' these
locks, which were, so superior to like
structures which he had seen. Speak
ing of his last visit to the city be said
that upon that occaeion be came in the
interest of the party which he repre
sented, but now that he came as the
chief executive of the state, bis interest
and solicitude were for the masses, re
gardless of party bounds. In closing he
congratulated tbe people of The Dalles
and Eastern Oregon at laree upon the
prosperity which is her's and her pros
pects for the future.
At the close of his speech, tbe band
again played, after which many im
proved the opportunity to shake bands
with the governor.
Liter, in company with Emit Schanno
and Hnith (iouriry, Governor Geer took
a walk through tbe principal streets of
our city and up on the bluff overlooking
the city. Hecxpreaeed his eurpriee at
tbe improvements iu The Dalles, and
spoke particularly of bis surprise at see
ingsuub fiue Stoic as are found through
out the town.
The hours until tram time were spent
with friends at the club rooms aud the
Umatilla House,' and he resumed bis
journey On thell :45 train. " '":"."' , '
WHO WILL ATTEND.
The Secretary Address the Teachers of
Kastern" Oregon, ' ""'
La Grande, Ore,, May 25, 1899. To
the Teachers of Eastern Oregon : As
corresponding Secretary of the Eastern
Division of the State Teachers' Associa
tion, I desire to call your attention to
the meeting of the N. E. A. at "Los
Angeles, July 11-14, 1899. Xhia is an
occasion that no teachei can afford to
miss without making a special effort to
attend. While the matter of expense
will necessarily figure in the estimate of
whit one can afford, yet the importance
of this great meeting is eo great, ' that j
ever teacher in Eastern Oregon should
make a' special effort to attend.'' This
will be an'opportunity of a life time and
will be the last chance some of us" will
have of attending this, the greatest edu
cational gathering in the ' world. Tbe
trip from Oregon into Californ ia wiil be
like passing into a new world. The in
structions, and the inspiration received
by coming in contact with ' the greatest
educators of tbe United States and the
acquaintances,' associations' and friend
ships formed will'mark an epoch in the
life of many a teacher.
California will necessarily eend the
greatest 'delegation. Washington will
send a host, 'both fiom the Eastern and
Western division. Idaho and Montana
promise a full attendance. And now
dear teacher, what about Oregon? What
about Eastern Oregon 7 Shall we show
to the world that we have less interest
than any state west ot tbe MiBeissippi?
GOVERNOR
As you are aware, the state of Oregon
has been organized into two divisions,
tbe Western Division and the Eastern
Division of the State Teachers' Associa
tion. The indications are thnt the
Western Division wiil eend a good rep
resentation. It is true that our ex
penses from Eastern Oregon will ben
little more than theirs, but it is not as
much as from Eastern Washington or
Idaho, or Montana. The expenses can
be estimated as follows : The O. R. & N.
will eell round tiip tickets to Portland
for one and one fifth fare. From Port
land to Los Angeles and return, by
oce.m feieamers in both directions, or to
an Francisco and return by steamer,
and trom San Francisco to Los Angeles
by S. P. it. R , round trip of f35 is of
fered. The Southern Pacific Company
will make a rate of $35 for round trip
from Portland, all overland ronte.
Tickts on sale July 5th to 9th, inclusive.
Good hotel accommodations can be se
cured in Los Angeles from $1 per day.
up to $4. It will thus be seen that the
expenses can be kept very low.
I have been as' ed to make a report,
at the earliest possible date, of those
intending to take advantage of these
rates. You will theiefore confer a favor
by informing me at your earliest pos6i-.
ble convenience, of your intention to
attend. Those who desire to establish
