LaudS Mr.. Lewis

From the Portland Optimist:
A few days ago the Optimist
man had occasion to call at the
law office of State Representa-.
tive ID. G. Lewis, 317 Board of
Trade Building. At the en-
trance he was met with that
same old familiar smile which
generally Eliminates the coun-
tenance of the distinguished
solon, with the greeting.
"Hello! Come in. Be seated.
How are you" After a little
while the scribe queried: "Mr.
Lewis, if you wished to punish
an enemy, what would be your
course of procedureW "Be
good to him. Be good" And
such is the philosophy of one
who has faithfully served the
public as its representative in
the legislature for two terms.
II was he who introduced and
had passed the bill that brought
about the annexation of st.
Johns to Portland and gave a
vast waterfront, worth millions
to the city, and which has re-
suited in the location of the
wheat terminals and coal bum
kers at st. Johns, together
with other activities of i'm.
mense value. In fact, the an
nexation Of st. Johns put that
region on the map.
Mr.. Lewis is an enthusiastic
advocate for the improvement
of the Columbia slough, and
also coal ships for Alaska and is
now working up data and max
ing Investigations so as to be
able to urge extensive improve.
ments along the Columbia
slough water course. He says
that if Germany had such q
harbor as Portland possesses,
combined with a Columbia
sloIgh. that i'm a short time
ships would sail to Troutdale.
EX.City Engineer Dieck pro-
posed sewerage improvements
for the Peninsula district that
would have placed a burden
on the property holders to the |
extent of $1,000, 600. Mr.. |
Lewis says if this amount was |
expended il would cut a canal |
from the mouth of Columbia |
slough to Troutdale. 80 feet in |
width and 30 feet deep; con-
struct an eight foot aqueduct |
from some possible point on the |
Sandy to the slough and give a
municipal lighting plant with |
the power created; also fur
nish n fresh current Of mount.
ain water TOR flushing purposes,
besides aiding materially in the
reclamation of 5000 acres of the
finest land in the world and
thereby place Portland in the
center of an agricultural gar
dening region richer in its
productiveness than Holland.
The Optimist man heard him
say these things at the East
Side Business Mems club and
the audience agreed that he
was right. IL is to be hoped
that the people of Oregon will
keep him in the legislature un-
oil his dreams become a reality
and the measures that he is ad-
vocating, namely. ships for
the Alaska trade and a ship
canal TO Troutdale.

Big Patriotic Meet
ing Held Last Night
Band Played Patriotic Music on the
Street and Also at the Hall Dur
ing the Evening
SEVERAL HOME
This Town Will be Represented In
the Navy and In the Army During
War

Washburn is up with the rest of
the towns when it comes to patrio-
tism. The demonstration was prob
ably not as elaborate as in many
towns but what was done shows that
the heart is in the right place and
that all are standing back Of Presi-
dent Wilson in doing what he thinks
is right.
A patriotic meeting was held at the
hall last night which was largely at
tended.
The band played on the street and
then marched to the hall which had
been suitably decorated with flags
for the occasion. After reaching the
hall they opened the program with
selection.
Five minute talks were given by a
number of the business men in town.
There was vocal, orchestra and more
band music, and in all it was a rous-
ing good program.
Homer Wallin is already in the
navy, two men are in Bismarck to
enlist and more expected to 60 soon.
Roy Whitlock has joined the army.
Others may recruit before long.
A more detailed account of last
nights meeting will be given in our
next issue.
