people of this city who are really in

ance in the prosecution of the adver
Using campaign which it is to take up
The time Is particularly opportune.
The Oregons, backed and supported
by the people of Dallas, will leave
next week on their banketball tour
through the East and with proper ad
vertisiog material placed in their
hands, can sow the name and
resources of Dallas broadcast until
this city, like Eugene and other cities
that have advertised, will become a
point of crystallization fora larize Dor-
tion of the throng of Immigrants that
win sweep westward next summer. In

the three big celebrations to be held
on the Pacific Coast nexlsummer the
Hose Fair at Portland: the Alaska
Yukon Exposition at Seattle and the
'lhroe Years After Fair at San Fran
Cisco will attract an enormous tour

from the colonist travel and wants the

ing of the Willamette Valley cities,
and the work that the Dallas Develon
mont League intends taking up is the
very work that will accomplish that
end.
