HENRY |. PITT0Ch

For more than half century he had
lived. labored, wrought and huilded on
a huge scale. Indeed. his endeavors
and the developments of his favored
enterprises were very integral part
Of the development of Oregon. Yet 1t
Was left till his death for the great
mass of the people to know OF the
towering achievements az l.. l..
achievements of Henry l.. Plttock,
smith has SO suecinctly EXPIRE, sed
them.
An exception TO the general rule OF
men of small stature. Mr.. Pittock was
extremely modest and his needs were
simple. Some men rise to greatness
through their rugged personality. Mr..
Pittock was leader of men. though OF
a different order from those who in
spired:
Lives Of great men all remind US,
We can make our own sublime
And departing leave behind US
Footprints IN the sands Of time.
His reticence for these more than 50
wears WAS an undeniable evidence of
his dstaste for ostentation. And yet
we know Of no man who has left so
deeply the impressions Of his charao ter
on the great state the industries OF
which he has in large degree helped
to develop. They are perhaps greater
than We will ever know.
MIR pttock was a man of far seeing
vision and a most astute judge OF
men. From the first days of the Ore
CONAN until the day of his death, after
that great newspaper had become ar
institution welding national influ'
ence, ne was possessed OF that rare
faculty Of seeking out the genius OF
other men and of allying their power
with his own. Henry l.. Pittock anc
the late Harvey ". Scott were a rare
team and powerful one and the Ore
gonian under their influence became
one of the nations foremost daily
papers. Mrs. Pittock was at the busi
ness helm. Mr.. Scott. one of the mos
profound students and writer's the
nation has produced in contemporary
times, was supreme as editor.
And thus, it appears. it has evel
been possible for Mr.. pittock to sup
plement himself by the powers o
those he collected around him. Ht
was great in that he realized his limit
ations. He rarely wrote anything, bl
was keen in his judgment Of the value
Of other men S articles. Perhaps if hs
mad attempted TO have written tn,
editorials Of the early Oregonian in
stead of devoting his energies to th'
details of management il would have
had a similar fate of SO may othe

gon. Until Mr. Pittock died, we dare
say. many Of them, most Of them no
of pioneer stock, did not know tha
MIR. Pittock was publisher of the Ore
CONAN. Yet the Oregonian may hav
welded an influence in bringing then
here in last analysis Mr.. Pittocl
may have been large factor in deter
mining their decision to make thei
home in Oregon.
1t is the pioneer, the pioneer o
his own time. who know best tn

knows something of his ideals and 0
the years Of untirng labor in building
many enterprises, the greatest of al
the Oregonian. He feels directly an
personally the loss that TO the res

That a New Hearing Will
Be Held Next Monday.
NAY NOT TAKE EFFEC1

A delay in putting into effect of tn
new minimum wage order, recentL
passed by the Industrial Commission o.
Wisconsin, seemed in sight today whel
Conrad Shearer, a member of the Ad
visory Wage Board, which recommends
the order, was advised that new hear
ing of the case would be held Monda.
morning, August 4th, at ten clock Il
the Capitol Building at Madison. Sine
the publication of the order, which i
to become effective on the first of Au
gust, the commission has been swampe,
by appeals from employers in ever
part of the state asking that the 90
forcement be postponed until Januar,
LIST, 1920. Employers declare that the,
have not had sufficient time to meet tn
requirements of the order and that tn
putting of it into effect at the earlie
date will cause great loss both to th
employer and the employee.
The Industrial Commission declare
in the letter announcing the new hear
ing that they do not believe that there
is any method by which the enforce
ment of the order may be postponed
but in order that the petitioners ma,
be given the fullest opportunity for tn,
hearing, the meeting has been called.
The Advisory Wage Board is asked t,
meet with the petitioners and the Com
mission in order to thresh out the who'll
affair again.
Following close after the letter an
nouncing the new hearing came Letters
from the Wisconsin Manufacturers as
ISOLATION to numerous employers in Ke
|nosha urging them to attend the hear
ing on Monday and present their view
or the order. 1t is pointed out tina
unless fifty employers agree befor,
Monday to attend the hearing, the re
view of the case will be cancelled ant
there will be no recourse in regard t.
the order. 1t is believed that at Ieast
ten Kenosha employers will plan t.
be present at the hearing.
In commenting on the new aspect Of
the case, Conrad Shearer, the Kenoshs
member of the Advisory Wage Boarc
this morning warned Kenoshans thai
new hearing did not mean that the or
der was cancelled and that the safe side
in the matter would be to go on the
assumption that the recently publish
ed order was in effect on August Is.
and to make changes in their business
to meet it. The result Of the Monday
hearing will be watched with interesi
in Kenosha,
