But for one saving detail, the
-wecRling at the Portland carni­
val last week would have been a
decidedly unconventional affair.
An Oregonian reporter is au­

lot of scare faced type thrusts at

Why doesn’t the Yamhill

its good work by seeing that

rooms in the Portland union
depot? Yamhillers are made to
blush on account of our miser­
able showing there. Visitors
from a distance certainly find
little to attract them in this
direction. Yamhill could put up
an excellent exhibit with little
expense if somebody or bodies
would take up the matter with
a will. Let’s not leave all our
advertising to be done at the
1905 fair.
The city should take steps
toward getting control of the
Edw ards oak grove and make of
it a city park. It is the onlyj
available ready made tract in j
town and could easily be made
an ideal little park. It is the
tendency of growing towns to
neglect doing things that do not
contribute directly to the ma­
terial wealth, and it is a big mis-'
take.
The thriving town of;
Newberg cannot afford . to le t'
this opportunity pass. So long [
a s Mr. Edwards kindh’ allows
the use ot the grove, little atten­
tion is given the matter, but if
some of these days it should b e1
sold and the use of it lost, there
would lie some belated sober
thoughts, Now is the time to
act.
