A. 0. Hunter of Bend made an
excellent talk on oc-operation.
Mr. Hunter is one of the most
energetic and practical boosters
in the interior and his ndvice
alone? these lines is always sound.
He emphasized the importance
of the entire interior working in
harmony, standing together with
the railroads, the government
and every interest having for its
purpose tho upbuilding of Cen
tral Oregon. Mr. Hunter pro
posed a resolution to be adopted
by tho League to call an irriga
tion convention having for its
purpose placing tho Cary Act
companies on a business basis in
order to be a real benefit to the
state. As they are now it is a
farco and a detriment.
Miss Louol Smith sang a solo
and responded to a hearty en
core. Judge Worden of Klamath sug
gested that all the counties com
nosinir the Central Oregon De
velopment League go together
and get out a general booklet of
advertising.

'All
presented tho greetings of Gov.
West who was unable to be pres
ent. Mr. Rinehart gave a good
talk that was thoroughly appre
ciated. He said We needed to
get busy on good roads and sug
gested "Peg Leg Dutch" people
herc'to get best results people
who were not afraid to work.
Phil Bates was on the program
for a good roads talk but tho ma
chine was "putout of business by
Rinehnrt's talk" as Bates put it,
ho was unable to give his illus
trated lecture. It was given
Tuesday evening at tho U'o
theater between and 7 o clock.
MORNING SESSION
Tho particular feature of this
Tuesday's session was tho pledg
ing of sufficient support to assure
tho establishment of experiment
stations in Contral Oregon at
once.

pledged a like Bum. The con
ditions are that $10,000 bo raised
to carry on this work until tho
meeting of tho Oregon legislature
to provide permanent support.
Tho stations are to bo under tho
chargo of the agricultural college
and tho railroad systems will pro
vlilnSRnno. Central Orecon J.V

has been assured and is one oi
tho great things accomplished by
tho Contral Oregon Development
League.

At tho noon luncheon a most
enjoyable and profitable hour was
spent. Tho secretaries of tho
various committccsspokeof their
experienco in handling corres
pondence, reaching intending in
vestors and results. Among tho
speakers were Mr. Oliver of
Klamath, Mr. Rice of Lakevicw,
Mayor Jones of Redmond, T. M.
Baldwin of Prineville. Mr. Mc
Murray of tho Harriman railroad
system made one of the most tell
ing talks when called upon at
luncheon. He is completely car
ried away with this big country
and said ho wanted to spend two
or three weeks here. "No hook'',
magazines, newspapers or anv
other mode of advertising can
tell about this magnificient coun
try," said Mr. McMurray. I?
pledged the system ho represents
to the support of Central Oregon.
Every means of publicity tho.v
have is to be focused on this sec
tion. They arc ready. He re
grets the apparent lack of inter
est in tho communities where in
quiries are received. A general
letter to be sent out in response
to these inquiries "don't go"
with him. Every letter should
have personal attention and fol
lowed up if necessary.
Mr. Johnson, chairman of the
executive committee of the Port
land Commercial Club assured us
of the deep interest that city has
in tho development of this sec
tion. "Portland stands for tho
upbuilding of all Oregon" said
Mr. Johnson, "and wo are your
to command."
Immediately following the
luncheon the school children
marched down to main street,
headed by the band, and escort
ed tho league delegates to the
court house.
Marshall N. Dana, of tho Port
land Journal, at this afternoon's
session in some well chosen, re
marks struck a keynote that has
future possibilities of consider
able import. Among them ho
suggested that for tho larger
development of Oregon's te
sources the Leagues appoint
from among their membership
and several localities men repre
sentative of the agricultural, in
dustrial, mercantile, manufactur
ing and stock rai -inr pui.-u t-.

ferences and then hrhn their
suggestions and enuehiMons to
these conventions with a view of
dovcloping tho larger interests
thus securing to the local the
best possible roturns thus obviat
ing an attempt at developing hit
an-miss fashion, locality for lo
cality, individual for individual,
and never attaining anything
definite.
Tho boosters turned school lu, s
for a timo yesterday afternoon
when they joined tho procession
of tho public school at Schwartz's
corner and gallantly marched
down main street, apparantly as
hnppy as a boy with his first pair
of red toil boots, they continued
iho march following tho childron
in a circular counter march around
tho band. Thero again tho boost
ers showed that tho Oregon cli
mato is condueivo of youth for
they wero able to form a lino of
lock steppers, that would bring
envy to men that had had oppor
tunities for much more practice.
After tho grand march and swing
nround tho circlo ono of tho visit
ors delivered a very brilliant ad
dress upon tho public school sys
tem. During His remarks he took
opportunily to praise tho appear
ance and efficienoy of the local
schools.
, Tho af tornoon session was to bo
given entirely to tho topic of
"Good Roads," but two very im
portant numbers that were left
from tho morning session were
given first place. Hon. I. S. Gecr,
our fellow townsmen, lead oil ,
with an address on "How it was'
done in Ilnrney County." His
talk was good, he using many
practical illustrations, telling how
thoso that had como in and made
a farm go and in many cases they
were not M'cg leggeu uutcn

W. Lair Thompson followed
with a telling talk on "Legisla

His speech was a scorcher and
ho brought many truths so close
home we could but admire his
grit, patriotism and good snsc.
He advocated approved publicity
telling the truths about our coun
try and that under the approval
and trial of the Agricultural Col
lege. He said a committee of

Klamath Falls wanted the next
meeting but gracefully gave way
to Lakeview where tho next meet
ing will be held. Tho best of
feeling prevailed throughout and
rything was harmonious. Tho
only regret is the shortness of the

and the short stay is their Ions.
Tho crowning feature of this
big meeting was the banquet
tendered at Lochor's hall last
evening under the skillful man
agement of the ladies of Burns.
Nothing was left undone that
could add to the affair within the
reach of our little city. All the
available space was filled with
tables and our ladies served well.
It was an affair of which we are
pr'Ud and one that brought forth
appreciative remarks from our
visitors.
Dr. W. L. Marsden acted as
toaslmaater in his accustomed
pleasing way with appropriate
remarks at the opening. Sever
al musical nmn.bej-8 were render
ed at the beginning, first a big
chorus. This was followed by a
fine solo by Mrs. J. L. Gault ac-
er.mpanied by Mrs. G. A. Item-
bold at the piano and Mrs. M. V.
Dod're on the violin, A violin
olo by C. A. Korten; a vocal
solo by Mrs. McIIose; a selection
by the ladies quartet. All num
bers were roundly applauded and
encored.
Toasts were responded to by
W. A. Williams, the insurance
V. L. Snelling of Lakeview, L.
Allen Lewis of Portland; J. J.
Donegan; Wm. McMurray of the
Harriman system; W. Lair
Thompson, of Lakewiew; Frank
Davey; Dr. Coe, of Bend; Wm.
Hanlcy, 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 wero highly
pleasing to the home people. The
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 themselves of 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

providing for our guests.
The Times-Herald feols good
about it - for Burns has made
good beyond a doubt. It was a
success that's all.
Here is a woman who speaks
from personal knowledge and
long experience, viz., Mrs. P. II.

"I know from experienc? that
Chamberlain's Cough Remedy is
far superior to any other. Fori

it.", For salo by all dealers. ,

right in raising good horses. It

good quality than poor ones, then '

Journal, Portland
From the Tuesday Evening Daily
This is Get-Together-Day in
Oregon. The red blood of Kla-
math, Lakeview, of Portland has
come to meet the red blood of
Bunns, of Harney county, and;
joining forces, has formulated
the most practical development
plan ever known to Oregon.
The day has produced pledges
of the people, of the Hill and
Harriman railroad systems, to
raise money enough for establish
ing two Central Oregon experi
ment stations and to maintain
them until the state recognizes
its obligation to perform this tre
mendous service by a sufficient
legislative appropriation to meet
the demand for soil education for
all time.
Harmnnv notes have been
ringing out like joy bells. A.
knell has sounded for petty!
sectional jealousies. The spirit
underlying all expressions is that
no person or community ha3 any
right to criticise any other per
son or community unless the sin
cere intention is to make it bet
ter for all.
What do we of Portland think
of Burns?
We think it the potential city
of a great agricultural communi
ty to be. The hospitality, the
energy, the hope of Harney's
people are amazing and delight
fulthe foundation of a magni
ficent future.
We are glad that storm and
distance did not turn us back on
the long road. There will al
ways hereafter be the sense of
warm, personal acquaintance,
relationship and interest,
This is a prediction-The auto -
mobile train that brought the'
transportation and commercial
interests of the outside world
will unfailingly soon be followed
by the steel highway, the rail
road. The world with its tremendous
interests is reaching out toward
Harney because of what Harney
has done. Lot the people e:
Burns continue to get ready for
the new era. The long wait is
nearly over.
Seeing is believing, and, see
ing, faith in interior Oregon is
redoubled. The expression of
that faith will be investment and
railroad building an unbreaka
ble link between the world and
Harney county.

The Drewsey exhibit (at the

The fruits are of the first order,

melons, pears, plums, etc, are
capable of making one's mouth

their own grounds. If thero was

Sunset exhibit, while not so
large as the one from Drewsey,
is of par excellence in quality.
This is a newly settled section
' but they raise many varities of

been made in the fruit line and
the melons and other fruit ex
hibited speak for the success of
the venture. However, this sec
tion seems especially adapted for
grain, the grains shown arc of
good quality and abundant yield.
The grass exhibit of James H.
Anderson is a marvelous one;
his alfalfa, bromos, rye, wheat
and native grasses are worthy of
the greatest consideration.
Walk down the west side of the
pavilion annex and see the dry
farming exhibit of field peas,
wheat, rye, barley, alfalfa, alsac,
red top and many other things of
like nature . Turn them to the
east side and see the same kinds
