After leaving Rodgers, | started
up the hill and saw a man coming
at full gallop. Hump, halt, salute
and ! at once recognized the only
Fred Ramsey, the companion of
Grant, Sheridan, and others of re-
nown in the days that tried men s
courage. How often he has told of
trips in a canoe with Gen. Grant 20
L.auries Island of the time they
used to have at Fort Vancouver,
when that city was the leading So
cial center of the northwest. When
the soldiers and Hudson Bay COM
pany's men used to meet around the
old army post and tell their wonder
ful stories of how they met and con
quered their foes-the red men of
the woods
What do you think, Mr.. Editor,
it has only been a few years since
these brave men and women, who
made Oregon what it is today, have
passed away \ few years ago,
some who are living in our midst,
have heard the story from the lips
of those who came here a few years
after Lewis and Clark blaled the
way, and think if there is any
thing that should appear a century
from now in the annals of history
relating to this generation, it should
be that we gave all the tributes of
honor and praise to the Oregon pio-
neers.
Apropos of this, Mr.. Editor,
would it not be good time TO take
up the matter of tombstone for
one of those same old pioneers, the
man who SO loved his adopted state
and the city that bears his name,
that hc willcd all he had to the
children that there might be
school established where all might
be educated, irrespective of creed
or color. II is 10 fault of his that
the same school is not IN evidence.
Now. il it was, It would stand rs a
monument to his philauthrophy. As
II is he lies in grave unmarked
aud unCarcd for, the same as though
hc was IN a paupcfs grave. Will
not some OF the old pioneers ol ST.
Johns take this matter up and see
that one Of the carly settlers OF this
state aud city Is hOnofcd as he
should bc.
Strolling on see little square
house under the Hill and OF looking
closer | see the school house, where
a number ol the men and women ul
today went To school IN the days
when the teachers boarded around
among the patrons oi the school
And then came Professors Ru,cnic,
Drnaugh and Mabel Walker, nee
Hansen When the annual school
meetings were held, when Learned,
Cation and Buyers would meet and
have 10 send ont to get some one Ia

some one has an aN tu grind or u
pet hobby to advance, Then We

his own wool and clean his own
