A General Forecast of the p. Opos.
ed History of Highland
County.

In it's general plan the book will
correspond with the authors His
tory of Pendleton. 1t is fully be-
lieved that the desired results will
be reached with still greater certain
ty.
One section will comprise a gen.
eral history of the area embraced
within the limits of Highland, be-
ginning with the first knowledge of
this region by white people.
Another section will consist of
sketches of the families of the coun-
ty. An explanation of the way
these sketches will be- constructed
will appear next week.
A third section will be of a very
miscellaneous character. 1t willin-
clude such topics as lists of land
surveys, of civil officers, and ros-
tiers of persons in military service.
The book is to have a map of
the county and perhaps a dozen
pictures of landscapes, villages, and
buildings. The size will be about
6x7 inches, and the number of pa
ges will be $50 or upward. The
print will be clean and plain, and
as the book is of permanent value
it will be put up with a view to
durability.
1t is fully expected that the his
tory will be ready not later than
October, 1911. The price will be
very reasonable, as such books 60.
The exact figure will be announced
at an early day.
The compiler comes here with
the will and desire to do careful,
Conscientious, and impartial work,
To make the enterprise success
the people of Highland are asked
to patronize it freely, and pending
it's appearance to respond prompt
ly and to the best of their ability
to the queries which in due season
will be sent them.
Please bear in mind that the pro-
jected history will 60 back to the
beginning of white settlement in
this region, therefore covering
period of more than 100 years. A
book or pamphlet, dealing almost
wholly with things as they are now
and filled with pictures and adver-
tisements, and with viographic
sketches that are paid for, is not
true history and has no permanent
value. 1t is merely write-up and
begins at once to fall out of date.
The compiler is now examining
the records in the courthouse. He
will soon begin tour around the
county. Further announcements
will appear in these columns from
week to week.
Any person wishing a copy of his
History of Pendleton may address

livestock show, and will lay the
foundation for an annual exhibit of
this kind.
That the record will be a credita
BILE one, all things considered, we
are fully convinced, but it is with
in the power of the Highland stock
men to make such success as will
surprise even the promoters them
selves. To bring this about, the
committees must have hearty CO.
operative and substantial ,encour-
agement. There is no question as
to general approval--everybody is
pleased over the show--but a mere
approval or passive attitude does
not 90 for much where actual help
is needed.
Arrange to exhibit your best
stock, and encourage your neigh
Dor to do the same. Make the oc-
casion interesting and worth while
by offering some prizes. A little
money spent in this way is we'll
spent. Good results come of such
competitions and friendly rivalries
1t leads to stock-improvement
and stimulates pride and ambition
The unsuccessful competitor of this
fall is not apt to be in that list
next year. 1t will put him ION his
metal" and he will put forth the
best of which he is capable. noting
the weak points and profting there
by.
Commissioner Koiner will be on
the ground. He knows a good
thing when he sees it, and he will
give Highland a send-off such as
she deserves, and he will naturally
look for the best of which we are
capable in the stock line.
