The Executive Committee of the
American Association of Travelling

details of their convention this com
ing summer. to be held in Seattle.
ID. j. O'Nein. of Portland, is a mem

left for the East last Friday carried
with him a most cordial invitation
from the Portland Commercial Club to
include at least two days soiourn
in the "Rose City" in the itinerary
of the Associations North W estern
trip. Their friendliness for Oregon
has been manifested by the Travelin e
Passenger Agents on innumerable oc.
oasions.
John Harper, who will superintend
the float making for the Rose Festi.

and for many years has had charge of
this feature for the "Veiled Prophet"

advertisements inserted in the greatest
agricultural, fruit and dairy journals
OF the country by the League about
the middle Of February, and long lists
Of enquirers are being sent to the
different commercial secretaries whose
organizations are affiliated with the

through Europe. Immigration is now
flowing West through the United

TO ABOLISH THE

That roosts on the park fences aud
spits tobacco juice aud make insulting
remarks about the ladies who are
forced to run the gauntlet by passing
them. | would suggest that the vic
Tins Of the Roosters' Club get to-
gethtr and tack barbed wire along
the top of the fences the roosters
would then probably perch some where
else, and the ladies would have the
pl asure OF walking along Sixth
street without being insulted by in
tulting r. marks made by the hoodlum
fraction Of town. /, myself have run
tile gauntlet along Sixth street and
will say. if you can pass between

hearing insulting remarks and reoeiv-

clothing you are lucky.

PRACTICAL JOKER GETS
In HIS WORK AT MERLIN

Merlin, Ore. March 3, 1908.
Editor Courier Your announcem. mt,
in last weeks paper, of my marriage
was omewhat i'll. advised and annoy
ing and | would ask that you publish
the source of your information in
your next issue. 1t is within the
province of certain knowalls to circu-
late such q rumor, but to put it in
print is another matter, and hardly
excusable with such easy access to the
public records as you have at the
county seat. Should such culmins-
ton result from the attentions l have
been paying the lady in question,
there will be no need OF tin can
and COW bell party" to inform a
seemingly anxious public, as il will
be announced in the customary chan
nels.
In the meantime we shall exercise
the privilege of settling this question
according to the dictates of our own
conscience without asking the aid OF
consent of any nation on earth.
Very respectfully,
CHAS. Z. SHORT.
EDITORS NOTE-The item to
which reference is had by Mr.. Short,
was handed into the Courier by ore
OF his Merlin friends and we were
given to understand that it was a
real, gospel fact" that the marriage
had taken place, but now it dswn'
spen US that somebody or bodies have
been indulging in some practical 1ok
ing. Matrimony Is entirely too ser
ious matter to be made light of aftei
any such fashion and We must humbly
beg our good friend Short pardon FOL
having been party to causing him Sc
much trouble and annoyance
