Both reports concur in the opinion
that the organic act OF 1902 limiting

public land that may be acquired does
not impose the same restrictions on
the disposition OF friar lands. The
majority report argues that as a prac-

Portland, Oregon.

From a personal letter from our old
friend and former townsman, Leonard
Agnew, under date of Nov. lS, we take
the liberty to print the following extracts:
Portland, Oregon, Nov. l3, 1911.
The girls aud are sitting in our apart
nent at Hotel Houston, and talking over
old times. Alice just returned from the
east on Friday night, and we have kept
her busy answering questions that we
have asked about you all. After spend
ing ten months in the east, she thinks
that Oregon is a pretty good place after
all, and thinks now that she can be con-
tented here. Mrs. Agnew is up on the
Ranch with her mother, while the girls
are having a visit together. Gertrude and
Sarah we're so anxious to hear all about
their eastern friends. We are all we'll
and at present are enjoying the beginning
of the rainy season. think Alice must
haye brought the snow with her from the
east as we have had little snow for day
or two. l never have been really home
sick, but often think of my old friends
and acquainiances of the east, and think
if had them here would be perfectly
happy in Oregon, for l certainly think
that Portland and the Willamette Valley
has the finest climate there is in America.
One thing do know though, is that in
a city of 225, 900 inhabitants one doesn't
get acquainted like he would in Tionests.
You meet great many people from all
over the United States, but the most of
them are from Missouri, and you know
what that means, you have to "show
them" think will soon be on your
delinquent list, so think had better send
you check, for we never could do with
out the old FOREST REPUBLICAN even II
we are becoming Oregonians. Enclosed
find check for the price of two su bscrip-
tions. Send one of them to Sarah Ellen
Agnew, Pacific University, Forest Grove,
Ore. She said she wanted one of her own
as she was always anxious to see the
home paper, and we sometimes neglected
to send II to her. Have been enjoying
some good old Pennsylvania apples and
chestnuts that Alice brought home with
her. One man SAID that was the best
apple he had tasted in ten years. How's
that for Pennsylvania apples? Kindly
remember me to all inquiring friends.
Yours, LEN.
