1 The City Reaiitirul
Amidst thin rtot., of - natural
beauty; and cultivated loveliness
the enterprising citizens of Salem
are building a city which is des
tined to become, famous as one of
the-most beautiful-of the entire
country. The state house grounds
lie; directly in the center dt the
city hpucdedon .the west by the
business district and -flanked on
the! south by. the campus, of WU
lamette Tiniversity, a eplendid edu
cational institution sponsored by
the Methodist church of Oregon.
East "and north of the capitol
grounds are homes, both large and
small, but In all probability these
will; within a. few years, give way
t6 business houses, as the rapid
growth erf the ity already Is serv
ing' notice' that business - shortly
ill be encroaching on residence
sections .and the possibility for
growth-toward the.westia limited
by the nearness of the river.
State -ilouse Grounds
The sUtehouse- grounds are
unique in the variety of trees they
possess. " Only in; the, grounds .of
the national, capitol at Washing
ton probably are to be. found such
a large .number of fees brought
frdm'.ao jaany, sources and coun
tries. Located in the midst of
Illimitable forests and , with a soil
producing the., choicest- of fruit
- trees, th,e, people of Oregpn were
not satisfied, with trees indigenous
to the. native boil, but have gone
far afield, for trees to plant, in the
grounds of their. state capital. As
each tree contains a. small metal
plate giving, its name, it "is fascl
natlng to walk. past. each of them
and-discover jts, origin. vOno will
.find tbe lBglisb-hawthorne. the
Chines magnolia, , the . cedar of
Lebanon, the, smoke-tree, the.Ori
. ental sycamore, the Judas tree, the
. umbrella' tree, - the weeping mul
berry. the-golden, twigged dog
wood, the 'Irish yew and the yel
low i Jasmine,, and-such a Ions list
of othesf varieties that the-only
possible way one can remember
th names -will 1m? to take a note
book and Jot" them down. Rut,
efen'though one fails to remember
all the, TiajnejCthe memory of that
hour strolling, through t these de
lightful,' grounds will, always re
maia with one. The state house
building Is old and entirely in
adequate.'! A' newer building at
the east end of the grounds houses
the supreme court and some of the
v other governmental tuncjlpns, but
at that, there is a palpable need
f or. .a ;new and greatly, enlarged
buildings ;.
What Became of Governors
On the Twaltg of "the senate and
house of-representatives are hung
oil paintings' of past . governors.
' In looking over the chief execu
tives of the state during the years
that hare passed, since the state
was . organized, one -cannot help
hut note the? large number who
- have not completed the terms for
which they were, elected If they
Aik BOt;,dfe they resigned after
being. elected to the United States
senate. -. Just which fate has been
considered preferable this writer
Is ' not' informed, but one or the
other seems to have overtaken a
large nuhiber of Oregon's, gover
nors. ' -.W:K J" ; '
. Salem hask distinction; which
many state- capitah do not - pos
sess, in that It has a large number
of state Institutions. States -as a
' rule are jealous of the capital and.

largest school for Indians In the
west, Salem would be a center of
population even If it did not have
natural resources to make it pros
perous, aiul when it comes to re
sources of soil. Just look at. this
list of products: It produces
wheat, corn, oats, barley and pota
toes, jjist like other parts of the
country: it is tho center of the-
groatest hop industry in the
I'nited States. It produces im
mense quantities of flax and two
big flax mills (the only ones of
the kind west of ,Vew York) I
manufacture tho product; it hasj
great fields of celery ind of pep-I
permint, the latter being Teduced !
to oil and essence. . Its poultry j
ann iairy production are enor
mous. And, after all these things are
enumerated, you . come to the
greatest of all the fruit. The
pmne production is simply mar
velous, and following that come
Lambert and Queen Anne cherries,
blackberries, strawberries, logan
berries, pears, peaches, apples.
English walnuts, filberts and all
the rest. Is it any; wonder that
those webfeet are all swelled up
on their country and that if yon
begin to tell one pf them about
Florida or California or even the
Garden of Eden, they will inter
rupt you impatiently with "Yes,
but did-you hear about the fruit
we shipped last year?" and quickly
prove by statistics that there is
not and never has been so favored
a spot on the face of the whole
globe as his own favored location.
And when I bad looked the coun
try over, and became acquainted

nut even then the- story is not
told. Within a radius of 25 miles
of Oregon's state house are 235
miles of paved toads and- 1000
miles of graveled and macadam
roads. The city has 32 churches
and Is the center of a population
of educated and cultured, people.
I. did not hear a single person ou
plain' of paying school tax while
I was in Oregen. Right tanning
plants furuish a tremendous mar
ket for fruit and a big payroll for
the employes during fruit seasons.
The city lays claijn to having the

CJreat Willamette Valley
It is-likely thatx some of the
readers of the Courier will be in
clined to chide the writer for wax
ing so enthusiastic over what he
saw there and ask him if he has
forgotten all the fine things he
wrote about Florida, just a year
ago. Not a bit of it. "The things
that . were set down regarding
Florida were all true, as we saw
them, and that' wonderful state is
destined for a prosperity beyond
the mind of man to estimate, but
we were more than glad to visit
Idaho's sister state and record the
marvelous natural advantages and
resources and the tremendous de
velopment which is going on there.
It is one of the glories of this
great nation that all of the excel
lencies are not located in one sec
tion, nut truth demands that it
be here recorded that in the pass

resources, the Willamette valley
