Pioneer Stands Up for
Good State of Oregon
, Editor of "The Statesman: "
y I , see people say that Oregon
'does not have as many people
tome here as California. The rea
son Is that the eastern people who
have money and don't have to
work any more want to go where
(the sun shines more than it .does
in Oregon, but when it does rain
- it rains harder than it does- in
Oregon; or It did when.. I was
.there. ,But' 1 heard every body
who had been in Oregon and some
,who had not been here say that
everything we raised here was so
;much better than things raised in
California. S-
. Oregon some day will have as
i many people as California but the
taxes in -Los Angeles are not as
thigh as in Oregon and the rent 9
are so much higher that only rich
people can Jive' there. They must
have lots of money or a good pos
ition, j One- day friend ' and I
went out for a ride with a real
; Estate man, and there was a lady
'about 70 years old, who was born
t And .raised In New York and a
;man and his; wife from Chicago
- who had been in Los Angeles for
, a year and a half.' The man-from
Chicago said he would not live in
:. Los Angeles, he was going; back
i borne as: Chicago was the best
place on earth to live. - I told him
'that was because he didn't know
any 1 thing, as Salem, Oregon was
the best place on earth. ..' ' .-. :
: The lady TromNew York said
; that was a , fine place and ; that
Florida' was a much nicer place
. than Lo Angeles. So; you see peo
I pie boost for" their;' own ' home
m town where they were born and
' raised.' Wa who . were raised
here, our fathers and mothers be
ting pioneers of the forties, know
1 that Oregon 'will raise most every
thing and raise it good when the
season is good, but we have not
: the market like they have In the
- - east. . California allows the farm
er more privileges, than Oregon
;- and most of the farmers are Japs,
f They, have markets along the
- highways with some thing to eat,
1 mostly hot dogs. s Our ; farmers
should get better, prices for what
; they,. raise and publie roads into
thel Urasw, ;;t.sv, f. :
. Every farm should havo these.
.The state and county. should help
them to get it, f But I always
- boost for Oregon and I have heard
. ' many do the same who own prop
. erty other places, but cannot sell
ao thsy could come, to Oregon.:
ij Being, a daughter, of !a pioneer
, of '45- I know what the poor old
pioneers had to go through with,
but a great many who have come
there In late years do not realize
. what the pioneers, have done to
make the country lorj them to
live in and what bright men we
iad in- the early days. A great
many, if they were v living now
would adjust things so one man
would not get 110.000 a year and
the working man and the farmer
' fay big taxes U pay him, and may
" . - r-ri- '-; -
be their children just have enough
to keep them from starving. I
know of farmers that don't have
$10 in cash a month to spend for
their families and three or four
children. J Now it we could only
adjust things, reduce salaries
raise the price of farm products
to ' the farmer, there would be
more people here. For if the
farmer quits, which they ? will
have to do if they-do not make
more, we! will have a very hard
time. .When you send some one
to boost, send a pioneer son or
daughter of the pioneer himself.
They will tell the truth.

Lot of Interesting Things
Happening Over at Trask
-River Camp . .
When a person gets the "bug"
for newspaper writing. It may last
like the seven-year-itch or, the
scent of the roses that the poet
wrote about. Jack Harbison, one
of the live wires of the YUCA
boys' camp over at Trask river,
writes a second chronicle of the
happenings there that : makes in
teresting reading for anybody.
He has the true , newspaper in
stinct in making 'em short and in
making 'em spicy and personal.
He doesn't ramble out among the
clouds and in the deep waves and
into., the wolf-haunted , forest : to
find topics he picks j 'em .-out
from his neighbors' . habits ) and
happenings. Here is his letter:
"Bob Boardman Just said I'd
have to help write to the papers,
as I key White has got too much
to tend to. besides writing to his
girl. I guese he's pretty interested.":;.-
. ;, ;i I" , i. .J
"We had an all-day hike today,
and went up to Boyle's creek. As
it was a hiking trip, we didn't
fish, but took a swim. ; The water
was so clear you could see the fel
lows r dive under. 15 feet down,
and pick up rocks. After we got
out, we looked in and saw some
big trout about a foot long. . We
made hooks out of pins, but they
wouldn't even smell the bait.
Guess they wero wise. " ,
"Ed Soco and Whitehouse took
a fishing party of 10 boys. When
they got to a shady spot, Ed Cross
threw in, and a big fish bit the
bait off. He threw In again, and
it did it again. : Then ; Morris
Kemp threw in, ' and it ate his
bait. Then Ralph Sipperell threw
in, after he put on two salmon
eggs, and he pulled out a big 20
inch trout. He felt pretty cocky,
and had his picture taken with
the. big fish. Then he and Bill
Sipperell cooked it and ate it for
suppe..' , '
" "We had a fight la camp today.
Bill Sipperell said he had an uncle
that shook hands with Jack Demp
sey. Ding Waters said "I got jin
uncle that . can lick Jack Demp
sey." Then the fight was on-We
had to give 'em both some hot
hand to make 'em stop. : a ..
"My team in baseball, called
the "Yes, I Ain't Oot No Bana
nas." licked the Andy Gumps to
night. 8 to 4. They were getting
pretty cocky, so we just trimmed
'em down to . show 'em ' what's
what. . t ; . y. , .
; "They keep ns going all "day.
so nobody gets homesick. They
give us Inspection every day, and
our tent Is in the lead - so , far.
They even . make ns be good In
table manners. - Boardman says,
"o use in being a monkey when
you can be a man." The prize is
out now for the best picture in
nature study, and birds and ani
mals. Ike White pretended he
was getting a picture' of a crane
the other day, and when the fel-j
lows j was in swimming he took;
the whole gang, and they had only
smile. :
He threatens to send it to
"Life." Wallace Griffith says he
will develop It. They are going
around trying to bribe him not to
send It. by giving him chewing
gum. ; --r " I
"Cecil NIst helps inspect the
tents. He is a West Point gradr
uate, and makes us toe the line.
Big camp fire tonight, and we
are going to have a show. 'Not
even homesick, and we have a fine
and dandy cook." ' '' I
