ATHENA. ORE. NOV. 22.......; 1907

Two hundred and thirty new people
found homes in Oregon every day from
September 1st to October 31st as a re-
suit of the colonist one-way tickets,
and through the help of the newspapers
the population and wealth of the State
has been enormously increased. The
exact number of tickets sold as report
ed by Mr.. William McMurray, Gene
raj Passenger Agent of the Hartman
lines, for 1907, was 1878. For the
same time in 1906 it was $500, an in
crease of 1868 or about sixty per cent.
This of course does not include tickets
sold to Oregon over the Canadian Pa
cifle, Northern Pacific, Great North
ern, or any other roads whose tickets
came around by way of Puget Sound.
The Oregon Development League has
made the colonist rates the chief feat
ure of its work. The Portland Com
mercial Club circulated 100000 leaf
lets with this low rate its central fea-
ture, and probably no advertising ever
done by any state in the Union has
shown better results. The rates will
be on again during March and April
1908.

have been held may prove interesting.
Four democratic national conventions
have been held in Chicago that of
1864, when Mcclellan was nominated !;
of 1884, when Cleveland was nominat-
