WAVE OF TRAVEL
COMING OUR WAY
A biuiMT travel to the nortliwefet
than duriuu the Lewis and Clurk ex
position year is redicted for the
summer by W. A. Cox, Kouorul HKeut
of Die Chicago it 'ortliwewtern inil
war. who lias luwt loluriied from a
tiiiHinosH ttin to Chicaiio. New Vork,
Pliiladelithiu, Boston, Indianapolis
and other points.
"If the railroads put lu sum.rer
rates that are now under cousidora
tion iu the eiiht, I pobitivtly believe
the travel to this coast this year will
equal, if it docs not exceed, that of
last year in 1'oi tland, is the way Mr.
Cox puts it.
This statement, eouiinx teriously
from ouo of the best informed rail
road tratlie men, fresh from the mid
dlo west and eastern territory, from
which Oregon expects to draw inves
tors, settlers and tourists this year,
will surprise niout people, it is said
that few realize the immense travel
that will come from the east to the
i'acillc coast this yeur.
Mr. Cox closely observed indica
tions that came within his view on the
trip eaft, and his opinion is bused on
personal knowJedKe of what he saw
and heard. Jle says tho people who
came to the Lewis and Clark fair have
done an immense amount of ellective
advertising lor the 1'aciilo Northwest,
und not only are many of tho same
people coiiiIuk back, but thousand
of others whom they have told of the
resources, opportunities and Koimrnl
favorable conditions hero. Air. Cox
saiil :
'"Ihe Lewis and Clark exposition
did moro for tho 1'aciilo coast than
any other exposition has ever done
for u country. The Louisiana Pur
chase exposition was a )reat thinK for
Ht. Louis. J tut it bmmlltted chielly
tho city of Hi. Louis. The conditions
around that city did not allow of ex
tousivo rosults favorable to tho coun
try, as it was already developed. Or
c'Kon has all tho wealth of resources ol
eastern states, and then some more.
The thing lackinK is population und
capital, The people of the east are at
last sooliiK this fact. The railrouds
are realizing that the l'ucillo North
west is really the only great region
romaiuinK for exploitation. They are
now ii.'hiK it serious attention."
Mr. Cox added that announcements
might soon bo looked for from the
railroads giving low summer rutes for
round trips to the I'acillc coast, and
that there would bean immense travel
besides the colonist and tourist travel
to this coast. There will be large con
vention! in California and a large pro
portion of tho delegates will arrange
their trip to come or return via the
northern routes. They want to see
tho country that has boon so much
tulked about in connection with the
fair. Old men who have boys are in
vestigating here for tho younger geu
eartiou. lie met men of wealth who
have no plans of their own for devel
opment, but who are convinced that
Oregon is the place for their sons.
Kastern people who have been ao
oustomud to traveling abroad aro be
ginning to realize that there Is some
thing to see in tho this wonderland
tho I'acillc Northwest. Tho onorinom
volume of railroad advertising that
hsii been done and is still being car
ried on exploiting this pint of the
United Wales is bringing actual re
sults as all good advertising will.
Men with capital to invest uro seeking
tho openings that are now known to
exist hero for making largo profits on
investments.
Regarding the building Into this
territory by the Northwestern line,
Air. Cox says his olllcials have noth
ing to say, but mills that the line he
represents is going farther than usual
in tho oll'ort to properly euro for the
increase In North l'acillo coast trallto
and that the olllctals aro dl"gontly
seeking detailed inlormiit ion as to the
possibilities and natural advantages.
Mr. Cox has been instructed by his
people to obtain promptly all statisti
cal mutter possible with regard to
crops and conditions, including
wheat, barley, Max, fruit, hops, sugar
beets, live stock, poultry and dairy
ing, mining, llsheries, climate, etc,,
all for incorporation in a new booklet
of extensive character ou "Tim l'ucillo
Northwest. "Journal.
Writes About New Hospital.
Hditor Clacier In as much as 1
have been at the hoHpital iu Hood
Uiver, and for the reason that there
are some people hero who do not
know that there is a hospital here,
anil others who believe that they have
to be a pat lent of one of the local doc
tors to gain admission to It, 1 feel it
quite right t hat 1 should say a word
ill support of this hospital.
Tho Cottage Hospital is located ou
the north side of Oak street iu what
is known as the Cox residence. It
was bought by Hectors Humble, Uros
ius, Watt und Shaw, to be used as a
hospital, iiml for which it is well
mluptod. Of course it is not a model
hospital such as you inigiit .expect for
llfty or a hundred thousand dollars.
It will only accoiiiodato from twelve
to sixteen people at a time. Hut
these twelve to sixteen people can be
oparated on jimt us successfully and
looked niter mora sucossfully here in
Hood Kivor than they can by going to
Portland or The OuIIoh.
Tho Cottage Hospital Is supplied
with hospital beds, ii sterilizing or
operKting room and is healed with
hot uii. It has at present two nurses,
nach of whom is a graduate of the
.Minneapolis City hospital, and each
tins had ten years cxporloui'o in hos
pitals The building has ulso hot and
cold wnl r and a kitchen and pantry
in the basement lull of all sorts of
good things to eat. It has i f course,
also a cook and a janitor.
It is not necessary to gain admis
sion to this hospital t In in iv' Ii one of
the local doctors. ou can make your
Arrangements w ith (lie matron. And
if it is neccsmirv that you undergo a
Hiirgical operation which you think is
technical und demands an expei't,then
by nil mans sei.d for the expert with
the advice of your local doctor and
make the expert come to you, to your
own town and your own hospital.
Knilroad fareco.-ts ilie doctor no moro
than It does you. Ilesides you are go
ing to pay a good price for the opera
tion, sn he can alt'onl to pay the rail
road fare, lint Ihe fare is so small
that it will not betaken Into account,
and if you insist on it tho doctor will
be glad to come, if he liuds that you
prefer to have it done at home. You
aro then surrounded with you family
und in touch wit h your friends and
your business. This seems to nio far
bettor than to pack your grip and
journey olf to Portland and locuto
yourself in one of tho cells of a live
story hospital surrounded by Strang
era who are as lndillerent to you us
you aro to them.
It is true that tho doctors did not
invest their money lu this enterprise
for the glory of it. Hut it is ut pres
ent not u profitable investment for
them, and if it should have to be
dosed inglorious? for the lack of our
patronage, it will be us much of a loss
to tho community as itwill be to the
doctors. I have merely said this
inucii because 1 believe mat it is an
enterprise deserving of our patronage.
1 believe of course that there are some
cases where it is best to get medical
or surgical aid elsewhere, but thoce
cases aro the exception.

BENNETT FINDS ALL
OREGON PROSPEROUS
!A. Dennett, editor of the Irrigon
rrigutor, who is ulso vice president
of the Oregon Development League,
and who has just completed an ex
tended tour of the state in the inte'
ests of Hint organization, is iu the
city for the purpose of consulting
with local members of the league.
Mr. llennett is entliusiastio over the
great awakening that has come to the
entire state cs a result of the Lewis
and Clark fair and ut the CouimeicisI
Club yesterday gave an iutenstitg
account of his trip.
"My tour took me us fur east i.s Lu
orando and us far sent Ii us Uorvul.ix,
he said, "and, judging from what 1
saw and heard iu the various towns 1
visited, Oregon Is on the eve of the
Kreutest era of development in her
history. In not u town that 1 visited
did 1 hear a complaint of dull times
or poor business. On the contrary,
everywhere 1 went 1 found the stieets
full of people, the mercnuuts busy,
money plenty, produce in good de
mand und every honest inau welcome
to credit.
"Naturally 1 visited the olllces ol
the country newspapers in the placet
passed through, and, as everybody
knows, there is no better place to get
into intiuiute touch with u common
ity than in the lucul eiiili r's sautum
"The ciedil for this condition ol
alfaiis is largely due, 1 bel eve, to the
work that has been done of late l.
the Oregon Development Li ague, liy
bringing together i'.l comeicial bodies
in all parts of the state, it is in u po
sitiou to wield u wide and benellciul
I n II nonce. Nearly every town of any
importance iu Oregon nowadays has
its commercial club or other business
men's organization, and what is more
to the point, ouch of these various or
gauizatinus is growing and prosper
ing beyond all precedent. A typical
case is that of Albany, whore tho Aloo
Club, deriving its name from the ini
tials of Albany, Linn county, Oregon,
is doing great things for the upbuild
ing of the town und surrounding
country.
"Woodhiirn, of the valley towns,
particularly Impressed me with its
evident prosperity. S'lveiton, too,
struck rue us a hustling, bustling
place wnen 1 was there huluruiiy a
week ego. All thro 'gh the valley u
feeling of optimism prevails and finds
warrant in the inllux of new settlers
and increasing demand for farm lands.
"On my wuy to the east 1 found
Hood Hirer as prosperous us any com
munity could hope to bo. Likewise
The Dalles. On the hrunoh line lone,
Lexington and ileppuer are making
a splendid growth and have bright
prospect. Never since the great
Hood of a few years ago has lleppner
displayed more business activity than
at tho present time.
"In my own town we are looking
forward to a lug year, inasmuch us
not less than IU) small tracts which
were planted in fruit trees a few years
ago will come Into bearing this season.
Arlington, Irrigo i ami even sleepy old
old Umatilla, awakened from u Kip
Van Winkle nap, are deriving great
b Miellt from the construction work ou
the north bank road, lie ho is hum
ming with prosperity and has a news
paper that is a credit to the commun
ity. "Pendleton is taking oucitillod airs
with a business men's club which has
a membership of 400 und a home
equipped with a gymnasium, shower
baths, billiard parlors and library.
Lu (irunde is doing a big business and
Hot Lake, a little further on, is ngog
ovro the report that a a company of
capitalists is planning to spend more
than WO.OOO lu making it the Carls
bad of the West.
"Crop prospects in Kastern Oregon
were never better, owing to the heavy
fall of snow iu the mountains east ol
the Cascades. "

Alasons throughout Michigan are
waiting with interest for the time
when they will receive a trowel re
cently started from tho New Vork
City Masonic Temple ou a trip that
will probably take several years to
complete. W ith the trowel, which Is
taken as a symbol of cement ing the
members of the order together, is a
register, in which will bo inscribed
by each lodge receiving it, date in re
spect to the trowel and the lodge.
I'.very Masonic lodge iu the I'nited
