EZRA MEEKER TO GO
ON BACKWARD TRAIL
Pioneer of 1882 Will Travel Over the
Old Trails He Travcrsed Half u Gem
tury Ago-Will Start From The
Dalles About March for Indiana.

With his yoke of stout oxen as his |
steeds Ezra Meeker intends to travel
back over the old Oregon trail to the
make his start from The Dalles and
will arrive there before the end of
February. -.-. -Es-.,s
Last spring Mr.. Meeker. who is
pioneer of 1852, announced his inten-
tion of retracing the steps of his
early manhood. lie left his home near
Chehalls and went to Portland "A short
time before the opening of the Lewis
and Clark fair grounds However, he
postponed his trip back to Indiana un-
til this year.
His friends at Auburn gave Mr.
Meeker a public farewell a few days
before he left last week for Portland
for the second time. Old Ezra told
many interesting tales of pioneer
days.
Mr.. Meeker during his talk told
how in 1859, after his party had reach
ed Puyallup. he was obliged to start
back over the trail TO obtain supplies,
and he met in Netches pass a party
of three women and eight children on
their way to what is now Auburn. The
women and children We're suffering for
| lack of food. Mr.. Meeker had only a
sack of hardtack with him, but he di-
vided with the sufferers. He said in a
humorous way that while the hungry
travellers seemed to appreciate his
kindness, they had never repaid him.
Just then Mrs. r. A. Faucet, aged
50, came forward with a huge cake.
She was one of the members of that
starving party. \ man who was with
the party as a child. left the hall and
soon returned with a sack of hardtack
which he presented to Mr. Meeker.
Some of the pictures shown in Au-
burn We're portraits of persons killed

gave the portraits of three children
who We're rescued from the massacre
, by friendly Indian and his squaw

; tie and then take his SOW and tort';
1 Gus way to the Cowlitz river via Olym
: pia, Tenino, Chehalis, Centralia, etc.
= and finally to reach Portland. In al
these places he proposes to give talk
and entertainments to raise a fund TO

Der of prominent men delivered
speeches. Secretary Shaw spoke
about currency reform. Senator Gal
linger made an elaborate address in
favor of the ship subsidy. The Board
adopted the following, among other,
resolutions:
Resolved, that the National Board
of Trade endorses the action of the
National Reciprocity Convention,
held in Chicago in August, 1905, and
urges upon CONGRESS- the enactment
of legislation permitting of reciprocal
trade relations with other countries. y
The establishment of government
schools for the training of diplomats,
consuls and commercial agents was
strongly urged.
The Statehood bill is now prom
inent issue before Congress. For a
time there have been murmurings
against the policy of the committee
and of the leader in the House, with
reference to the joint admission OF
Arizona and New Mexico. 1t was
thought for time that the opposition
to that course was sufficiently strong
to defeat joint statehood. But after
the almost ludicrous collapse of the
clustering opposition to the Philippine
Tariff the leaders seem confident OF
being able to quell the opposition te
the statehood bill.
Upon the request of the President,
Secretary Shaw has consented to ex.
tend his service in the cabinet to Feb
ruary, 1907. This is considered as 9
move toward efficaciously meeting the
impending tariff war with Germany

A WASHINGTON EXCURSION.
Mr.. Will Denison, we'll knNwn to all
old Denisonites, is in the city this
week making arrangements for spe-
cial car of tourists for the famous
wheat lands and fruit section of
Washington. The party will go via
the Great Northern Railway out of
St. Paul and will have special car
all the way from Denison to the coast.
A number from Denison are planning
to go. The rate will be exceedingly
low, $5l.60 for round trip tickets, and
the fare will be RENTED to land buy
ers. Mr.. Denison tells us that he
met Mr.. Otto Timm during one of
his recent trips and that Mr.. Timm
especially urged him to try to bring
out car load of his old Crawford
county neighbors so that they might
see the wonerful new country, and
he promises a hearty welcome to all.
AS the number that can be accommo-
dated on the Denison special car is
limited, those desiring to take ad-
vantage of the low rate, the specis
accommodations and the companion
ship of Crawford county people on the
long journey should see Mr.. Denison
at once. The special will leave Deni-
son either on the first or the third
Tuesday in February as may best suit
the convenience of the party.

postofiee Appropriation Bill Ready

Postoffice Appropriation Bill Ready.
Washington, D. C.-The subcom-
mittee of the house committee on post
offices and post roads, which has been
considering appropriations for the post
Office department, has practically COM
pleted bill fixing the appropriation
for the department at $192,000,000 or
$10,000000 more than the last appro-
priation.
This increase is designated to meet
the increase in the business of the
department, which averages about 8
percent annually. The bill as agreed
upon will be laid before the entire
committee tomorrow. 1t provides for
some sweeping changes in the depart
ment's methods, and contains a pro-
vision to prevent the shipment of any
thing but actual mail matter through
the mails by the government.
This is aimed at the government de-
partments, which have made free use
of mails in shipping furniture, Office
supplies of all sorts, stationery, and
other heavy matter
The bill provides that even the post
Office department shall cease to use
the mails for shipment of Office sup
plies, and states that canceling ma
chimes and other supplies in freight
able quantities shall be sent by freight.
The appropriation in the bills for
rural free delivery is about $2S 200, 900,
an increase of 100000 over that of
last year.

All the men are in fairly good condi-
