c ar 'l; ;;'.tished visitors of Thurs
day have come and gone and
w e've lapsed back into our old quiet
ways, but wo have the pleasant
memory of tlieir iitto cheer us.
We gae thi in a hearty welcome
and judging from their smiles and
n 1 ly h and ie-, they enjoyed it.
We bad al i.u.,hon the band-just
b foie the tia.'n was due a whistle
ijj ia the distance and iin-
! ' !ia. !y they struck up one of
their prettiest tunes. Just in the
ni;d-t of it they were greeted by the
nr i e f a ijei d of hh'x-p in tho ap
p: i ic! it;;.; ft eight train, but as the
.-h ep .e,iuud to appreciate the tune
'the band played on." A few
ta .'meats later, the right train ar
rive! and there was more fine
muii... aa'i after the party alighted
Hoia the tram, they were escorted
by the Mayor and the Commercial
Club to a place directly in lront of
tlie uiib 100ms. Everybody turued
cut t ; meet and welcome them but
the prettiest sight was that ofthe
choJ'.eii iied up oa cither side of
the street- with their eager ex pec
tar. little faces upturned in welcome

we want you to have the entire
freedom of the town, and that you
may feel easy, if any of yon should
enjoy yourselves too much and the
police should have to lock you up,
I have instructed the recorder to
tnrn you loose.
Pres. Campbell of the Commercial
Club, in a few words of greeting and
of good cheer, said our only regret
at this meeting is that these trips do
not occur oftener, and that the time
allowed ia too short. We want you
to come oftener and to Hay at least
two hours.
In reply, lion. II. M. Cake, Presi
dent of the Commercial Club of
Portland, said: "Ladies, Gentle
men and School Children, we feel
that in this gathering we have re
ceived a better and finer greeting
than we have heretofore. I do not
believe however we can make com
parisons, i'he school children have
all been 011 hand, as well as the
ladies and gentlemen. We come
with outstretched hands to welcome,
and wish to learn more of jou,
our hearts beat together in the up
building of the resources of oar
great state. Our slogan on this
trip is ''United Oregon" and no in
dividuJal nor town in the whole
state.
Ralph. W. Hoyt: "The financial
interests which I represent have an
interest in your mines, we have seen
fine reports and we want to know
more of them. We have had a cor
dial welcome all along, in the south
ern part of the state we hare seen
great products of fruits, crops, and
of mines. Here the mines are the
great thing that interests us. We
want to get better acquainted with
you, and it would Beem that we are
allowed more time for this town than
usual, as we usually have only I5
minutes. I speak fer the members
of this party in saying that tney
want you to become better ac
quainted with them, and if there is
anything; we can do for you we
want you to call upon us.
Mark Levy: "This is the first
time I have attempted to make a
speech. I can tell a story, or sing a
song, but I am no good at speechify
ing. I am glad to be with you, and
greet you."
John F. Carrol, of the Journal:
"I plead not guilty. I was inter
ested by the last remarks of Col.
Veatcli about the city jail, and. am
glad there is a chance to square
ourselves with, the officials. They
have been at hand all along to
watch over us, at Eoseburg we had
the sheriff. I am sure this array ot
children has never been equaled.
If I were to give a toast it would
be to the handsome ladies we have
seen and to the choicest lot of child
ren I ever beheld."
