tion Will Go On Tour.
The Willamette valley will be ad
vertised at the Panama Pacific Inter'
national Exposition at San Francisco
in 1915 by a gigantic exhibit, con
tributed by eight counties. This
means that, the valley will be adver
tised as a district, instead of by indi
vidual county exhibits. The reason
for advertising the valley as a section,
is that it is believed mote good will
result at less expense than otherwise.
Also an effort will be made tor the
establishment of the discrimination
of $17.50 against the northern route to
the west and for concerted effort on
the part of all organizations, schools,
cities, districts and individuals to have
as many tourists stop over to visit
the inland towns while coming to and
from the exposition.
In short, the plan drafted here yes
terday afternoon at an important
meeting of representatives of the var
ious counties, is to reap the harvest
while the sun shilies.
Meeting here yesterday afternoon
in the local Commercial club, t.hirty
renresentatives of eight valley coun
ties, namely: Benton, Linn, Clacka
mas, Polk. Yamhill, Washington, Lane
and Marion, representing the booster
organizations and the county courts,
conferred with scores of enterprising
local business men and discussed the
foregoing matters to the end that con
certed action will be taken relative
to the profitable advertising of the
Willamette valley, as a section through
the help of all the counties as a unit.
President. O. M. Clark and R. A.
Booth, of the Oregon commission of
the exposition and Tom Richardson,
of the Oregon Development League,
were present.
The prime result of the meeting was
that a permanent o :,r.uiizatHu was
decided upon to carry on this wcrk.
by a resolution introduced It called
for an executive conriti'.ree to be

Through some mistake a few grips
were conveyed to the Southern Pa
cific depot instead of the Oregon

the biis from the former depot,
Schultz, King and Fox were hailed at
the electric depot by a coterie of
tiaveling men, inquiring for their
grips excitedly, as the train was at
the station ready to pull out in a few
seconds. Whereupon Fox jumped off,
conducted an investigation, and al
most simultaneously King wheeled
the bus about and proceeded rapidly
to the S. P. depot. One grip was

while Fox pacified the traveling men
