Not in the Record mHE Oregon City Enterprise takes a fine attitude toward A the decennial census. While the count shows a gain of only 50 for this important industrial center, nevertheless as the Enterprise says, the increase in the small communities sur rounding the city has been large. But the count of persons does not tell the whole story. A city may develop, become finer and richer and stronger even though its number of inhabitants shows no gain. There are items not reported in the census which none the less show growth and progress over the span of years. New school buildings may replace old, muddy streets may have been pav ed, new homes may have been erected, churches and hospitals. Then public affairs may be on a much better plane. The public indebtedness may have been cut down, its parks or utility enterprises improved, a factional spirit that divided the community, outgrown. Yes, there are many things which no count f heads will show. Consider; the family for example. If in a decade children ' have been born, fine; the home is or should be the happier for their presence. fc.ven if the number in the household re main the same, the home may be a better place than it was ten years ago. There may be a new bathtub, or a heating plant. Perhaps lather got the leaJty faucet ut the Kitchen sink fixed sometime in the last decade. Flowers may bloom in the dooryard, perhaps the mortgage has been paid off. The de cade has marked progress for the home even with its family the same in size. So it is with the city. The Enterprise relates a decennium of achievement for Oregon City even if only 50 more people reside there to en joy the finer Oregon City of 1930. Here is what the Enter prise lists, though none of it goes in the census report : "While Oregon City proper has sained 'perhaps less than BO peo ple within tea years, she has no apologies to make on that score. Had we failed to advance in other respects there would be cause for chagrin. In the past ten years we hare seen oar city government vastly improved; and our civic. affairs so handled that many miles of streets bare been paved, city buildings hare beea erected, parks beautified, athletic grounds provided, paid fire department installed with modern equipment, all without adding to the burden of the people. We have witnessed the erection of beaatlfnl churches, the enlargement of our school facilities, the organization of a service club, better theatres for our amusement and a golf course for recre ation; our mills have enlarged their plants and output and a beauti ful bridge has replaced the old suspension bridge across the Willam-' ette, while numerous elegant residences bespeak added home comforts." "Woman's Work is Never Done" BY WAY of the bright arid instructive editorial column of the Portland Telegram we read of Mrs. Anna Lesley of Monument, Grant county, a "find" of the Canyon City Eagle. The pages of her diary seem torn from the chapters of pio neer mothers.j Days full of labor, yet with all the tasks of tending a farm, a home, and caring for a brood of a dozen children, she yet had time for errands of mercy in the com munity. And Grant county is out in the wide open spaces where neighbors may be miles apart, and a isit to the sick may mean a journey of considerable distance. Mrs. Lesley tells her story in this wise : I'm no man. nor have I a man on the place, and I work to make s living, and I will tell you a few of the many things I do. I am the mother Of twelve children, now raised, and in addition I raised three grandchildren. I have done all the family washing on a wasfrboardandj I cook three times a day for from nine to twenty. I raise a large-garden, milk twelve cows by myself (sometimes a boy helps). I clean the stable, I sew and I work in the irrigation ditch. Sometimes: I hare to ride three miles after the cows; I feed twenty fine'calves. I am chairman of the sick committee in the grange, and when aomeone is sick; I go between milking and do what I can. I do part of the winter feeding of hay; I raise turkeys and chickens, and I walk to church antpunday school, a mile. I do all mf housework, churn my own butter, attend to my bus iness and put ii many a hard shift from early dawn to bedtime. As we rekd the advertisements telling of how the load of womankind has been lightened through household appliances and as we thnk of those women filled with ennui from the daily round of bridge and teas and theatre parties, it is something of ja shock to know that there are still those wom en whose daj-js of unremitting toil are long and continuous. Mrs. Lesley, though, is one of a type fast disappearing.

Though Pennington spoke with otter calmness, his lips quivered, and after keen glance at him. Doctor Eaton said: "I think it is, and I think you will be better for knowing. We can conceive of no way of carry ng the body np the side of the ravine. It is a most difficult climb for an wahswpered man: with a burden it would be impossible." "And so?" Pennington queried. "And so, we have decided to let down a hammock, which ean be safely drawn up by two strong men." Pennington drew a quick breath which was echoed in uibby"B mind, for both men had vasrae feara nf honrihla tkinM i;v. books or grappling irons. uve you strong men to raise it?" "Yes, have no fear.'

When the war started S Moaning the war between the cattle men. and the sheep men. It ia suggested, as the reader will ee below; that it may have had its beginnings in the covered wag on trains on the plains. With Henry C. Porter of Aumsvllle as her source of information, Sarah Hunt Steeves, In her "Book of Re membrance of Marlon County, Oregon, Pioneers," wrote the fol lowing: "William Porter was the son of David and Nancy Porter, who were born in Rockbridge county, Virginia,' David being born in 1780, and his wife, whose maiden name was Culton, in 1714. Their parents were barn in Virginia and were of Irish descent. David Por ter died between Soda Springs, on Bear river, and Fort Hall, on Snake river, in 1849, on his way to Oregon He had previously moved from Virginia to Tennes see and from Tennessee to Mis souri but left Missouri aad moved to IUinois on account of his pre judice against slavery. "William Porter was born in Llaeeln eountr. Missouri, on De cember 14, Ills. When a small boy ho spent considerable of bis time in Fort Kennedy, on account of Indian trouble. He remembered having spent one night lying in the corn field with the rest of the family hiding from the radians. and hit father feeding some of the children gunpowder to keep them tfom conghlng, which would perhaps nave revealed their hid ing place. At the age or Is years ho went to Jacksonville, Illicfois, where he attended Illinois college four years, being a classmate of Richard Yates, one of Illinois' brightest governors. In 1836 be permanently located la Pike coun ty, Illinois, where he taught school continuously for 10 years. Hon. Ben Hayden and other well known pioneers of the west were among his students. In 1840 be was married to Miss Sarah Cof fey, daughter of N. and Elizabeth Coffey. w ."In 1848, with his wife aad four small children, he crossed the plains to Oregon, being six months to a day on the road, hav ing started on April 7 and arriv ing at his last camping place on October 7. A man by the name of Bolivar Walker was the captain of the Porter train, which conaist ed of about 29 wagons. "A conk shell vras used to round up the caravan in the morning. One or two blasts from this trumpet would awaken the sieepy train, while later signals would gather the wagons together for the early start. "The personnel of this party, a3 aear as could be ascertained at this date, were; N. Coffey, Isaac Ball, W. H. Tucker, Stephen and William Porter, H. N. V. Holmes. Dr. Joseph Blackerby, Jacob Con ser and Samuel Tucker, all with their families. V "These were serious times, when the cattle would stampede and make for the river, and at one time Isaac Ball Jumped from his wagon to try to head off thje crazed cattle, with the result that he had his leg broken. At another time Stephen Porter risked his life by standing on the brink of a river and waring his coat in the face of the oncoming herd, just averting a tragedy. , "If the caravan wished to leave a message to an advancing train, they would write their instruc tions upon a bleached buffalo skull and put it In a conspicuous place by the side of the trail. It was quite common to find by the roadside a skull telling that so many yards in a certain direction and hanging in such and such a tree, would be oart of of a buffalo. The writer's mother. in lulling oi tnis. said there were no iiies wnen they came across the plains in 1847 and often they found meat ia this way.

Lewis, daughter of Reuben Lewis, oae of the 62 pioneers who met at Champoeg and voted to place Oregon under the American flag. Elizabeth N. was married to C. K. Read, an early pioneer, in 18S4. "John H. was married in 1870 te Mary Ada VanKuys, whose par ents were early pioneers of the Waldo hills. "Sidney R. was married to the adopted daughter ef Mr. and Mrs L.
