Strike is Cause Many Yet Remain

(By LaMar IOoze)
Newport, Oregon, Aug. 30-(Special
to the Capital Journal)-The story at
Newport now is more one of departure
than Of arrivals. The starting of the
public schools, the commencing of the
hop picking season and a threatened
railroad strike, have stimulated beach
sojourners to conclude their vacations
here. In spite Of these, however, a
goodly crowd still remains. September
comes tomorrow and it will see the
largest beach population of any Sep
tember in recent years.
In many respects this season has
been remarkable one. This section
of the Oregon coast line has never had
better weather than during the last
month and a half. The fishing mas
been good and various attractions like
the chautauqua and Indian fair have
been most pleasant diversions.
The coming of the coast wise rail
road will not detract from Newport S
attractiveness as summer resort.
-Four hours from Portland will mean
more week end excursionists and a
larger number of permanent residents
from Portland and Eastern Oregon
points. The road will open country
unexceiled for natural beauty.
