PIONEERS MEET At
CHAMPOEG TO HONOR
STATES BIRTHDAY
Judge Darcy Urges That His
tOric Ground Be Fitted
Up For Park

The seventy-second anniversary of
the founding of provisional govern
ment at Champoeg was fittingly cele-
brated last Saturday when more than
500 pioneers and their descendants
gatherer to commemorate the event.
Judge P. H. Darcy acted as president
of the meeting, and introduced the
speakers of the day. Governor Witty.
combe, in his address, suggested that a
building be erected on the site, follow.
ing the style of the Oregon state build.
ing at the Panama Pacific exposition
and that the state should appropriate
money for the proper care of the
grounds.
Judge p. H, darcy, who has been
president of the meetings for several
years past, and who has been to great
extent responsible for the success of
these gatherings also urged that a build
ing resembling the pioneers S cabin
should be erected on the grounds, to
properly commemorate the historic
event, and to be used as gathering
place and proper shelter for the pion.
GERS during the meetings. The Judge
regretted that there was 80 little known
of the early historic events in Oregon Is
history, especially among school teach.
ers and pupils, and suggested that the
early history Of the northwest and espe.
cially Of Oregon, be taught in the pub.
lie schools, following the example of
Texas and other states.
Judge Darcy prepared the bill and
was active in securing its passage by
the legislature two years ago, by which
the state purchased l2 acres, making
the total acreage of the park l4.59. He
not only urged that suitable building
should mark the site, but that the
grounds should be fenced and properly
taken care of, just as the Lincoln home
in Kentucky and the Boston Commons
in Boston are protected and made his.
t0rical.
He called special attention to the
progress that had been made since the
provisional government was formed at
Champoeg. At that time the only mode
of travel was by slow OK team or by
boat and the only trading was at the
posts Of the Hudson Bay company. He
contrasted those days with the present
with its rapid means of travel and the
hundreds Of automobiles which sur.
rounded the park
1t was on May 9, 1s43 when the
ownership Of this country was an open
question between the United States
and Great Britain, that the pioneers,
feeling the need Of stronger govern
ing hand than the Hudson Bay company
called the meeting at Champoeg, and
Joe Mecks, in effect told all those who
favored the United States to follow
him, Our of the 100 present, 90 stepped
to his side. The temporary government
was then formed, Meeks was elected
sheriff and on that day, the state Of
Oregon was born.

ALLIES LOSE HEAVILY
IN ATTACK ON TURKS
Asiatic Side Of DardaneIIes
Cleared Of French Troops
Is Admitted

London, May 3.-Further reports Of
the DardOnelles operations were anx.
iously awaiting today as official an.
nouncements Of the fighting in that re.
gion clearly indicate that the losses Of
the allies have been heavier than was
expected.
II was emphatcNlly denied today that
the position Of the French, British and
colonial troops landed on Turkish soil is
serious. Turkish and German claims as.
scrt that the allies are facing onnibiln.
ton, but such statements are secuted at
the war office.
1t has developed that the statements
from Constantniople asserting that the
Asiatic side Of the straits had been
cleared of the French were correct, but
il was asserted here that the retirement
was ordered. The landing Of the French
IL declared to have been merely feint
and alter, il is understood the allied
force aided the British in making a
landing further south. A dispatch TO
the Daily Mail declares the French have
landed at Gheyikli and are now en-.
trenchng under cover Of the warships,
The other retirement is said to have
been ordered because the Turks were
found to be entrcnehed about Kun
Kuleh in great strength. To have at.
tempted to drive them out would have
resulted in heavy losses, II was believed.
Smelling Of the Dardanelles forts by
the wnrships continues and the fire
from the Turkish batteries is said to
have materially reduced. Mine sweep
ing operations In the straits have been
practically abandoned, however. The
mobile batteries Of the Turks have rem.
dercd such work impossible.
