Intermingled with subjects connected with social, education al, business and public interests. There was little difference in this respect between the camp 'fires of a party of professional men seek ing rest and that of road makers Constructing lines of develop ment." m Thus ends the sketch of John Minto, giving the history of the Minto pass. If the reader has carefully followed the recital, he must hare already concluded that every name applied by these pio neer discoverers and explorers should remain unchanged from the original. S Also, that it would be a rank injustice, or profanation, for this and future generations to allow Hogg pass to take the place of Minto pass, or to have that best course for a highway across the Cascades called Santiam pass, as some persons have lately shown a disposition to do. . U In an article to follow in this column, in the next issue, the Bits man will offer a few explanations, together with some facts support ing his contention. 7i rrmTt tt TTTITT Tl TTP rrTrn ri tr iTTx-tnrTj qn o mm m it Visitors at Aurora Homes Will be Numerous in Coming Week AURORA, Dec. 24 As usual. tho Affrora homes will radiate hospitality throughout the holiday season.

FAMILIES TO (Continued from page 4) ley when the railroad is extended It miles farther east. "The first stream making in from the northeast of Boulder creek was called, by the survey ing party of 1874. the White, a first fork from Jefferson. In Aug ust the snow melts from the southwest slopes of Jefferson and runs through volcanic ash as fine as bolted flour and It enters the main Santiam like thickened milk, coloring It down to Meha ma sometimes. Custom has ad opted the name 'Whitewater.' "In 1879 I gave the name Pa melia creek to the next stream which flows off the south face of Mount Jefferson, and the same name now attaches to the lake at its south base. The name was giv ea for Pamelia Ann Berry, be cause of her cheerfulness as one . ef the girl cooks of the working party, of which her father and sister were valued members Independence valley was so named by the road viewing party of 1874. Our party rested there on the 4th of July. "The first waterfall on the east branch was named Gatch's falls for Prof. T. M. Catch, by election of the party, the young members all having been his students. "Marlon lake and Orlo falls at the head of it were named at the same time; the latter by the youngest members of the com pany who had danced with Miss Orla Davenport, the oldest daugh ter of our surveyor. The most of the water of Marion lake seems to come over these falls from the northern declivities, a rocky peak ef many pinnacles, locally called "Three-fingered Jack,' but to which the name of Mount Marion was given In the report of this survey. This peak rises from the summit ridge south of Mount Jefferson and north of Mount Washington about equal distance ef seven miles from each and about 15 miles from the most aorthern of the Three Sisters There are inviting situations for delightful summer residences on er near the ridge, both north and south of Mount Marlon, which will in the near future probably pecorne sites ol permanent homes "the climate, as indicated by pianc me, is mat of the Hlsrh lands of Scotland, as here the American congener of both pur- pie ana wane heather Is found pa and near the summit ridge. .
