Dr. Harold Leonard Ilowinan, pastor, of ' the First Presbyterian church, Portland: "The death of Governor Pattei-Ron ia a loss to -the entire state: His public life - was like his private life, sympathetic and straightforward." A. G. Rushlight, representative from Multnomah county: "1 think Governor Patterson was-one of the best leaders, from cn economical Midpoint, Oregon ever lias. ha-.I.

It was his earnest endevaro, at all 1 limes nnd under all conditions, 10 do that which resulted in the best Interests of the people of the state. His broad knowledge of public af fairs peculiarly equipped him for the duties of the governorship nd ho was ever ready and willing ij respond to tho many demands oc casioned by the high office which he filled. .. ."I lis loss will be greatly felt, but the man constructive thlncs which he has accomplished for the state during the three years of his administration will stand' as mon uments of his public Hcrvlce. Per sonally I greatly enjoyed working with him as n public official, for ho was most considerate and jI ways insisted on getting both sides uf a uucstlon before arriving nt a conclusion. "I have lost a dear personal friend and the state of Oregun has lost a conscientious and able exec utive." Hal K.
