1914 Year o f Jubilee
Throughout Northwest
Portland — Commencing with the
grand ‘ 'Silver Jubilee” commemorat
ing its 25th anniversary on January 1,
1341, the Pasadena, Cal., Tournament
of Roses will usher in the greatest
year of public entertainments, carni
vals, fetes and expositions ever held
in the West. The Tournament is the
first of a long string of celebrations
which are affiliated with the Festivals
association of the Pacific Coast and
which will be held in various cities of
the Sunset Slope throughout the year.
The territory covered extends from
Boise and Salt Lake on the East, to
Honolulu on the West, and from Van
couver and Victoria on the North to
Pasadena on the South.
Following the Pasadena celebration
on New Years comes the Mid-Pacific
carnival at Honolulu, February 18-21,
and then the scene of attraction to
tourists and pleasure seekers from all
over the country will shift to each of
the following citieB and attractions :
Vancouver, B. C., Horse Show, in
April; Portland Rose Festival, Spo-
kane Pow Wow, and Bremerton,
Wash., Rhodo-Festo, in June; Seattle
Marine and Aquatic Pageant, Tacoma
Montamara Festo, in July; Belling-
ham, Mount Baker Marathon, Boise
Rainmakers Carnival, Salt Lake Wiz
ard o f the Wasatch; Victoria Water
Carnival and Vancouver B. C. Mid-
Summer Festival, in August, and the
Pendleton Round Up in September,
and probably a repetition of the San
Francisco Portola Festival in October.
Oakland and Los Angeles expect to
hold similar carnivals this year while
Everett, Wash., and one or two other
Northwestern cities are planning to
join the Festivals association in time
to aid in the great movement to ex
ploit the wonders o f the Pacific Coast

Telephone & Telegraph Company
Bows to Anti-Trust Law.
American Disposes of All Western
Union Stock— Long Distance
Service Given to Rivals.
Washington, D. C.—Attorney Gen
eral McReynolds made public Saturday
details of an agreement for reorgan
ization o f the American Telephone &
Telegraph company, the ‘ ‘ telephone
trust,’ ’ which will prevent litigation
to dissolve that corporation under the
anti-trust act and under which compe
titive conditions would be restored in
the telephone service o f the entire
country and the combine will dispose
of its holdings in the Western Union
Telegraph company.
The reorganization plan originated
with the company, although it fol
lowed many reports that a suit against
it might be filed. It was regarded by
department of justice officials as the
most striking indication offered in a
decade that “ big business” has come
to the conclusion that it is better to
follow the Sherman law than fight it.
The plan met not only the approval
of the attorney general and his chief
“ trust buster,” G. C. Todd, and offi
cials of the subsidiaries o f the com
bine, but was heartily approved by
President Wilson. In a letter to Mr.
McReynolds the President expressed
his admiration for the attitude of the
telephone company and his conviction
that such conduct on the part of busi
ness men meant a building up of busi
ness on sound and permanent lines.
Coming on the heels of the an
nouncement that Postmaster General
Burleson is interested in government
ownership o f telephone lines, the ac
tion of the department o f justice took
an added significance and some offi
cials went so far as to express the
opinion that it indicated legislation to
acquire the country’s telephone busi
ness woult^ not be pressed by the ad
ministration at the present session.
