OUTSIDE ATTRACTIONS.

AS | have said In Portland town and
country meet. so there is no need for
going out of town. But we all like Il
change, and nowhere can one find a
city with II greater variety of outside
attractions. The Columbia river trip is
famous throughout the world. a well
known traveller who had seen the ANA
2on the Nile, the Rhine and the Hud-
son, said that the Columbia was the
most magnificent stream ON Gods
earth" | have myself seen the last
three rivers. and l know they do not
so overwhelm me with their grandeur.
Great mountains rise almost to the wa
tcr's edge, and classic domes, mighty
battlements. and delicate arahcsques
tower above the rivers wide sweeps
and deep channels. Marvelously tinted
clouds, skies, cataractS ana rocks add
to its glory. The oddly chiseled walls
of cape Horn rise 300 sheer feet from
the water, then pile backward to a
height of $500 feet. Rooster Rock.
Mutnomah--what panorama the
mere names bring forth! You have
hardly time to note the works of man:
the thriving farms with their famous
orchards Of Oregon pruncs and apples,
the enterprising towns, the fish wheels
raising and slu;cing into the hub thou
sands Of salmon every season, the great
Cascade locks 90 years in building ut
the cost OF a million dollars. Thcre are
many long car rides of interest: Three
quarters OF an hour takes you to VAN

Who Makes the Mysteries 2

A manager of hotel in a large city
has grievance against the newspa-
pers because, he says, they are prone
to make mysteries of hotel suicides.
Hotel suicides have come to be COM
mon things and the newspaper that
can succeed in making a mystery out
of one must be rather skillful at It,
but If this hotel manager were to in
quire into the facts or the situation
with an honest purpose We imagine he
would find that it is not the newspa-
per, but the hotel management that
creates the mystery. The average ho-
tel management is prone to throw the
air of mystery about such tragedies,
presumably because they occur at the
hotel and the management wants to
avoid publicity. But what a poor way
to do it! A better way would be for
the hotel to make a frank statement
of all the facts as they exist and put
itself in the position of covering up
nothing and assuming no responsible
ity for what had occurred.
The decent newspapers are not look
ing for this sort Of mysteries and they
would rather minimize than magnify
the reports Of them, and what the
other kind of papers do is not a mat
ter of much consequence, anyway.
Too many people are like this hotel
manager, imbued with the false notion
that they have no responsibility in CIV
ing publicity to facts the public is en-.
titled to know. They have very de-
