"Jnly 18 Many people, even within the radius of a tew hundred miles do not know thai Oregon' boasts of one most i natuial and beautiful health and summer resorts to be (bund wfthiaihe United States. .This .Is tie Breitenbush, Springs. Hot Spring la scarcely applicable to tbe resort as it Is not confined solely to not springs although there &re numerous hot springs. Cold springs are to be found - within close proximity to the hoi . ones and -within a stone's throw la the beautiful Breltenbush riv er, the wafers of which come from tbe springs and creeks fad ly the snow from majestic Mt. Jefferson. A ffw Tears- age and th springs were practicany un known or If known were not pat ronlzed to anr treat extent be cause of the-difficulty of getting! to them. .?

This, however Is all changed sow and road has. feeen built ' into the resort. Tree,1 is not a paved .highway, but the road is good, has been grav eled this year ana affords plenty of room tor cars to pass. It fol lows an old railroad logging road and steep climbs have been eliminated. Road Is Good ' Leaving tbe macadam road it Mm City one has a gravelled road an the way to the Springs. From Mill City the road follows th beautiful North Santlam riv er, leading up and up, at-times one Is far above tbe 'river' of which glimpses are caught of the sparkling water far below, and If one has ' the lime to stop" they may even see salmon or a big, tiout leap from the bine waters after a fly or bug, and then dis appear again leaving only a cir cle of ripples. Then there are: vjews of roeks, hge is else ud or uncanny shape, covered with moss. - On this part of the high way one passes tbe gorge or nar rows, through which the waters boll and tumble. This part of the river Cows through, .walls of solid rock many feet la height and It is possible for one to Jr.mp from one side of the river to the other. In other places are daep pools which are the para . dise of fishermen.

Perhaps It might be well to say a 'few words here about the town of Detroit. This at one time was headquarters tor pack trains and saddle horses not only to the Springs but to Bit. Jefferson, Elk lake, Marion lake, Olaille and Pamela lakes. The first name for 'the town was suggested Ca Coe "bat owing to objections of me government to this as a ""to .'lice on account of the sim ilarity to Core 'In Eastern Ore- Loa, it was decided .to call the place Detroit. This was deelded on because there were a number of former Michigan people resi dents of the community at that time. The postoff&e was estab lished October IS. 1891 with Varmess O. Danforth as the first postmaster. The railroad Into Detroit was completed possibly about the year 1889 and extend ed beyond 'Detroit to Idanha. The railroad was built by CoL X, Egenton Hogg who proposed to make' Yaquina Bay one fit the greatest seaports In the North west and have a ran line connect' lag it with some western trans continental road.' Not having Sufficient backing and the idea at least tor that time being poor ly conceived the project proved to be 'a neavy loss to the bond holders. A few years since this road was bought by the Southern Pacific company. Previous to the building of the road settlers in this pan of the country walked or .rede horse back. The earliest settlers lo cated on homesteads or small aereagee and planted the ground to small fruits and grain. The grain was packed or carted "to Oregon City in the earlier days and was ground Into flour and this In turn was taken baek to the North Santiam valley to the homes of the growers. About the year- 1875 a grist mill was built at, Stayton and thereafter farm era took their grata there to be milled. Camp 17 Attractive To return to the trill to the Breltenbush. leaving Detroit to the right one starts on the last lap of the trip. Up past Camp 17 of the Hammond Lumber com pany .which does not at all re semble one's perception of a log ging camp with its neatly paint ed cottages, clean walks, electric lights and running water, the road follows the river with lofty mountain cliffs on either side. From the highway glimpses of water tain and rustic bridges are obtained. The visitor comes first to the Doctor Skiff camp which Is more familiarly known as tbe lower camp.' Cottages, wide walks and flower- beds "- sbound and the place has a cheerful look and the visitor is tempted to stop awhile But Breitenbnsh Springs prop er 1 only a scant mile tway and so the traveler treks oa. eer Mansfield creek which was named for one of the early own ers of the -Springs and a few (Continued on Page le) i-IUaminated 2?

July It The major business transacted by the Woodburn cttv council, which met In the city hall Tuesday eve ning was concerning the replac ing of street lights in Woodburn so they will be of more value so far as protection is concerned.
