Various phases o f newspaper
economics were discussed, partic­
ularly the “ Free Ihiblicity” as is
being worked by the San Francis­
co Exposition bunch. While ull
were practically agreed that it
is poor business policy, yet in all
probabilitics.thciv will be little or
no change and the free space get­
ters will continue to flourish and
wax fat.
While it is improbable that very
much financial benefit is derived
from these meetings yet it is'good
to get together and swap experi­
ences and get away from the
office.

On account o f poisonous sulpher
fumes from smelters near Redding,
California killing timber and all veg-
itation the Forestry Department
caused the smelters to close down.
But now comes one Mt. Lassen and
in open defiance and willful disre­
gard o f constituted authority, fills
the air with poisonous vapors and
scatters ashes broadcast.
Some newspapers and societies are
having much to say about the “ Low
Grade Medical Schools” and appear
to be greatly concerned about possi­
ble harm that might result thereby.
If these schools are such a menace
to the health, and happiness it is
passing strange that they do not
name these school that the unsophis­
ticated youth who aspires to "peddle
pills” might not be led into paths
that appear unseemly to the “ Regu­
lar.”
VALLEY SGRIRES
MEET IN DALLAS
Interesting Session of the Willam­
ette Valley Press Association,
Dallas, July 18
Editors from various parts of
the Willamette Valley met in the
city o f Dallas last Saturday. They
were met at the train by members
o f the Commercial Club and driv­
en through the city and country
adjacent. The trip was a delight­
ful one and on their return to the
city were dined at the Gail.
The business part o f the meet­
ing was held in the basement of
the Public Library, the Socialists
and Democrats having taken pos­
session o f the court house.
The meeting was not as well
attended as should have been, yet
the “ free space,, grafter was in
evidence.
