East Oregonian : E.O. (Pendleton, OR) 1888-current, 1905-03-06

The following interview with T. c.
Taylor appears in a recent number
of the Hawaii Bulletin, one of the
leading papers of Honolulu. 1t will
be read with appreciation by the
many friends of Mr.. and Mrs. Taylor
here:
What do think of Hawaii? Well,
I should very much like to tell you,
but really can't. My thinking and
descriptive powers have been put out
of business by the wonderful scenes
have visited in this territory. All
can say is that since arrived here
with Mrs. Taylor We have marched
from surprise to surprise and the re-
sources, beauty and wealth of the
country and the energy of its people
which are in evidence everywhere
have surpassed my widest expecta-
tions."
Thus spoke T. c. Taylor, a promi-
nent business man of Pendleton, Ore
gon, when seen at the Hawaiian hotel
last evening by a Bulletin reported.
Mr.. and Mrs. Taylor arrived here
on the last voyage of the Korea and
with a party of tourists have been vis-
islands. They returned from the vol
cano yesterday on the Mauna Loa,
and while waiting for the Mongolia
which is due here on the gath, will
visit the sugar plantations and points
of interest of this island.
Taylor Typical American.
Mr.. Taylor is the typical American
business man. He is an enthusiastic
lover of the beauties of nature, but
while revelling in the wondrous pano-
rama offered by Hawaii to the stran-
ger within her gates, never loses an
occasion to observe and scrutinize
with business eye all the avenues of
commerce and industry open in the
places that he visits.
II notice." said Mr.. Taylor, that
all the steamship and railroad fold
ers advertising Hawaii contain an ap-
preciative quotation from Mark
Twain. Really that doesn't begin to
express what feel about the islands
First of all Mrs. Taylor and myself
have been treated right royalty both
here and on Hawaii. The hospitality
and courtesy of the people are not
surpassed anywhere; why, look at this
hotel tonight" and Mr.. Taylor, with
a comprehensive gesture of the hand,
pointed to the dining room and the
lanais of the Hawaiian where a large
number of guests were being enter
tanned at a Valentines party; "can
you imagine anything like this on the
mainland? l guess not. 1 used to
think that Hawaii was like all tropic-
al countries, land of listlessness and
sleep and all that sort of thing, but 1
must apologize and admit that l was
badly mistaken.
"The working energy of your busi-
ness men l cannot comprehend and
if President Roosevelt were here he
would find all the strenuousness he
wants. l am proud that it is an
American land and delighted to notice
the progressive spirit prevailing ev-
erywhere,

The Telephone Merger.

1t is extremely difficult to OBJ
tain absolutely accurate inform
alton regarding the recent mer-
ger of the Cumberland and Citi-
zen s Long Distance telephone
companies, or more strictly
speaking, the withdrawal of the
former company from the local
field. It has been rumored on
the streets that the lease on the
upper floor Of the Barrow build
ing at the corner of Market
street and north Second avenue,
which was some time since Sc
cured by the Cumberland com
pany, would be transferred to the
Citizen s Long Distance people,
who would move their exchange
thereto. When Mr.. J. A. Rich
mond. the secretary of the com
pany, was asked about the pro
DOSG0 LDONC lie bdbEQ 1ldb blCIG
was no truth in the rumor and
that so far as he knew the mat
ter had never even been consid-
cred by the officials of his COM
pany.
Another feature of the merger
which is not quite clear is just
exactly how the long distance
service will be operated. The
wires of the Citizens exchange
are connected with the long dis
lance wires. and it was naturally
supposed that the service would
be operated through this ex-
change. Mr.. Thornburgh, the
local manager for the retiring
corporation, states, however.
that he has been informed by
thefoffcials of the com pany that
he is to remain here to represent
their interests in the long dis
lance service. From this it would

CHAT OF PEOPLE AND EVENTS

That We have reached the fag-
end of the social season, the quiet
which has already overtaken US
bears witness, and with a touch
of mid summer warmth, there
has come also a suggestion of its
calm in the past week. There has
been no entertaining and the
chief occasion of interest were the
two students musical recitals at
the College, delightfully."- herald
ing the fast approaching common
cement, and the meetings of the
Daughters of the Confederacy
and the Ladies' Reading Circle.
Several new names were placed
upon the roll at the regular month
ly gathering of the Daughters of
the Confederacy Friday morning,
andIa charming and valu able con-
tribution to the historical sketches
of the year was given by Miss
Annie Wade O'Neill, The report
of the delegates to the State on
vention was pleasant feature of
the morning.
Miss Mary Mayo returned Tues
day from Jackson, where she re-
manned few days after the close
of the teachers convention in
order to study the method of the
Jackson High School, with whose
faculty, by the way, Miss Edwina
Burnley, formerly instructor in
mathematics at the I. I. and c., is
now prominetly connected. Miss
MAYO. as chairman of the Irwin
Russell memorial committee, made
a gratifying report of the work
accomplished. Over three hum
dred dollars stand to the commit
tees credit, and in the collection
recently taken by the public
schools to further this laudable
effort, Columbus gained the ban
ner place. The association au-
thorized the committee to pur-
chase the bust and pedestal as
soon as the necessary funds are
raised, and it is hoped that the
niche reserved for Mississippi's
lamented poet in the Hall of
Fame will soon be filed. The &C

ing Mr.. Cook as its vice president
meets with general endorsement,
and it is an honor worthily be-
slowed upon an able and pro-
gressive educator,

clipped the following notice, which

welcome her again"

the Reading Circle yesterday af-
ternoon. The leading article up
