The afternoon Session was to be

' G. W. Bower, of Redmond,
(Vice-president of the Central
Oregon Development League,
delivered a very able address on
the necessity of building good
roads "for tomorrow."
W. Lair Thompson follow id
with a telling talk on "Legisla
tive needs of Central Oregon."
His speech was a scorcher and
he brought many truths so close
home we could but admire his
grit, patriotism and good sense.

Marshall N. Dana in fitting
I words told us about "Links in
'tho Development Chain" as a
part of this address appeared in
I yesterday's paper,
A letter was read from Mr. T.
B. Wilcox, president of the Ore
Ron Development League ex
Pressing regrets at not being
able to be present. The letter
was read by t. H. itansom, a
lumberman of Portland, the let
ter was proceeded by some jocu
lar and fitting remarks.
Every ono knows Wm. Shirk
who was n former resident of
this county. lie is, surely a Lake
County booster but has tho inter
ests of all Central Oregon at
heart as well as Lake County.

might expect in the way of co-
operation from the Commercial
Club and the good citizens of
that place.
i The Times-Herald has not space
I to devote to the resolutions adopt
led but these will appear in the
I weekly issue.
Klamath Falls wanted the next
meeting but gracefully gave way
to Lakeview where the next meet
ing will be held. The best of
feeling prevailed throughout ajid
everything was harmonious. The
(only regret is the shortness of tbje
visit made necessary by the cele
bration at Bend. The people of
Burns feel very kindly toward
Bend and although we regret
that the many visitors could not
see the fine display of products in
the navilion and some of our fine
stock we wish them to know that
we feel honored by their coming
and the short stay is their loss,
1 The crowning feature of this
big meeting was the banquet
tendered at Locher's hall last
evening under the skillful man-1
, agement of the ladies of Burns. ,

Toasts were responded to by

Hanley, C. C. Chapman. These
were good every one of them.
Mr. Snelling is a diamond in the
rough and was a great surprise
in his wit. The eloquence of Mr.
Williams was certainly appreciat
ed. The earnest talk of Mr.
McMurray, his splendid tribute
to the work of the Development
League and his message from
Portland business men who were
not able to come were highly
pleasing to the home people. Th'e
invitation of Dr. Coe to come
to Bend for the railroad celebra
tion also pleased and we only re
gret that more of our people
could not avail themselvesif the
opportunity.

Mr. Chapman's tribute to the
silent workers and his sincere
expressions of appreciation of
the hospitality of Burns repaid
all the trouble our good people
especially the ladies went to in
providing for our guests.
The Times-Herald feels good
about it for Burns has made
good beyond a doubt. Jt was a
success" that's all.
Now, help make the fair go.
