RECORDER
Oregon at the Fair
Oregon Huilding, I'anama-I'aeuic,
July The most, forcible utterance be
fore the international I'ross Congress
was that Mr. Edgar 11. Piper, ol the
Oregomun, who protested vigoroul
against the sUite anil government
laws that go far to restrict tlie real
usefulness and service of the news
papers of the land. In the confidence
that the real intent of the increasing
restrictions imposed is to create a
bureaucratic means of censorship and
oppression, Mr. I'iper urged printer
men and organizations to stand firm
ly ngaist all the men and measures
that would make tho newspaper of the
United Slates take on the paleness of
the unfortunate European press now
"meie phonograph!.. voices of autocra
tic government." Insisting that tho
politician desires nothing so much as
the control of the newspaper, and thai
the ollice-holder in, after all, too fre
quently but a trans'aled political!, the
Oregoniau editor urged that tho
government and the stale, as repro'sen
ted by the office -bolder, shouid not
have the power to determine tho pre
cise conditions upon which a particu
lar item or article may be printed,
lie denied the legal or moral rights
of the government to say that this
matter shall go in the advertising co
lumns or that of the ncwscoliimns,
or the other on the editorial page. At
tho present time no newspaper is free
from the menace of an official censor
ship and the penalities of a fine or ex
clusion from the mails; no longer has
any newspaper man tho right to con
duct his paper in any great measure
as he might determine, and obnoxious
law makes the newspapers as a class
appear as dishonest, their columns
filled with that which is tainted, i 11
trutbful or otherwise infamous. Mr.
I'iper denied tho right of the govern
ment or the state to place the now
papers and the public at such ibsad

v inl..i,e, and lie urged newspaper men
to be alert that tho necessary freedom
of ti e press shall not bo wiped out
altogether. In closing tin address
that made a profound impression and
started definite action against further,
encroachment Mr. I'iper said: "I make
no oi jeetion to the requirement that
all daily newspaper shall print somi
annu:.lly statements of tbier average
circulation and the names of their c
mtor'i, publishers, bondholders and
other public creditors and all other
pertii.cnt facts about these publica
tions --neither do I proclaim the right
of a i owspapcr to print what it pleas
es, wl.en it pleases and where it plear .
es, but I do repudiate the implied ns
iiimplion and exercise by government
of the function of newspaper admini
stration in detail. Tho nowspapor
(dailv and weekly) is responsible to
its public for tho honest presentation
of the news and for tho integrity and
value of its editorial utterances. There
i.- a rortain infallible public instinct
intangible but nevertheless real-which
determines the worth of any newspap
er and which far surpasses any statu
tory rule as a guide and mentor for
newspaper conduct. Much may be
safely left to the public intuition and
tl'o public understanding. Tho news
papers know, if your public official
does .not, for tho; are restrained and
corrected by it all the time."
ALL OREGON WEEK'
August 'Jtli to HHIi inclusive is tc
be "All Oregon Week" at the Oregon
building, with exorcises extraordina
ry on the 9th and special days continu
ing through the week. Everything
possible to bring Oregon to the at
tention of tho Exposition crowds will
be attempted during this season of
activity. All sorts of plans are under
cnnsidiTtition and it is certain a mag
liifuent week's program will lie work
ed out. It is expected that several

that many Oregon's distinguished citi-

way or another. . An orchestra and
v.-alists will furnish music each day
and at night there will be dunces and
special programs. Eastern Oregon
will have one day all its own and in
all probability Representatives Lackey
and McCully will give away sacks of
i popcorns as souvenirs of the occasion.
At the same time the Pendleton round
up will be featured in some unique
presontatives arc in correspondenr
way. The Willamette Valley re
presentatives are in correspondence
with the various commercial clubs and
are hoping to stir up something new
and r.ovel that will make their day the
I Katest of i

of all. Taylor, Dunsmore,
ren, St vei;:.oii, Proctor
and Oriscnwintc, all representing the
Willamette valley counties, make up
il formidable organisation. Tho Coos
Hay man, J. A. Ward, figures on a
clam bake of which California ard the
world knows little. The Oregon build
ing, located within a few feet of a ran
dy beach, offers ideal conditions for
such an affair and !f Ward can pull
off this stunt his day will prove the
hit of the festivities. If this fails to
work out, Coos Hay cheese and cra.'l
era, will have an inning. Southern
Oregon is going to crowd a two-day
.affair into one day, but refuses 10 di

The Willamette and ' Rogue river

sonis of them o:i'jci., tut Hood Riv
er sent tho box of the Iatgest cl-enies
shown at the exposition. Those were
lambcrts and of a si.o unbe'icvable to
those unfnniiliar with the size to
which Oregon cherries grow. Hood
River has a right to n-.ake a big noiao.
The crowds arc rapidiy increasing
at this time, and tho Exposition is
filled with Easterners. Inquiry about
Oregon has trebled and undoubtedly
ninny thousands will visit oar slate
during the next two or three months.
An average of 55,000 pass ti.e gates
daiiy and the Exposition is now mak
ing good money. Oregon visitors to
the fair nre increasing in numbers, a
bout 175 registering daily.. Many
Oregonians are coming by auto and
find the roads generallj satisfactory.
Constant inquiry here makes it cer
tain that Oregon is going to be visit
ed by an extraoidinary number of
louring autoists during the summer
and fall months.

he said I had, and she went home and
sent her 10 year old boy to have talk
with the doctor. Many women gather

iness and professional men. At 8 ad
dressed 150 men, some standing for
more than 2 hours. A splendid meet
ing. One man said, "I live 7 miles
out. My wife was at meeting in after
noon, and she insisted that I should
come in. I am glad 1 came, it is the
createst thing I have ever hoard and
it will do a lot of good". Another
aid. "I am the watchman at light
i.:ant. My wife was nt afternoon

would see it through.
From 7 to 8 o'clock, I talked to 20
older boys in city hall. From S to 10
o'clock, a meeting of men was held
with lit present. Many expressions
of .-ippreciation were heard. One man
said, "I am from Vale. Did not go to
mooting last night, but heaid so much
about meeting this morning I decided
I would come over here, drove 17 miles
and must return tonight, but am glad
I came". The mayor said "You must
come back this fall and talk to cur

tho best we havo ever had".

talked to 37 men in railroads yards
good interest. At 3 p. m. talked to 35
mothers in I. O. O. F. Hall. It was a
good meeting all the women but
three came up and thanked me. Some
said that such meeting was needed in
they were right.
At S p. m. talked to 50 men. It
looked a little discouraging at first,
but beforethe meeting progressed far
we had every man with us. Tho doc
tor who was to speak failed us. The
other speakers wore the best we have
had on the trip. I am sure Iluntin,,
ton is with us in our work now. At
first, I thnk they regarded us with
suspicion they thought we were a
moral squad.
It has been a good trip and wov.h
all it cost.
