/, 1853, | landed in Portland, then a
struggling village of four hundred

Oregon Trail, l climbed the steep
bank of the Willamette with my sick
wife in my arms. while friend car
ried the sick baby, to shelter, small
wonder if a spirit of depression seized
me as if in an iron grip. To later in
tensify this feeling and add to the dis
couragement, soon after, deep snow
fell to dispel our dream of an ideal
climate, increased our discomfort and
caused loss to us of our faithful cat
tie save one yoke of oxen. But shell

nearly where the Northern Pacific Ka-
lama passenger depot now stands and
pioneer life began.
Citizens of Washington.
One day in March QS53) news came
to us in the cabin that we were no
longer living in Oregon; that congress
had, on March 2, created a new ter
rtory and named it Washington and
so here we were. without any act on
our part, in at the beginning of new
commonwealth; one of the founders
of future state and, as l write, with
in a month of my ninety-first birthday,
the only one left of the adults of that
generation then within the bounds Of
the new territory, and, l may add,
have remained here continuously dur
ing the whole life of the territory and
state.
The Indian war (1855-6) that so |
soon followed the first treaty with the |
Indians, hung as a cloud long after all |
danger had passed. Seventy-five block
houses had been built and more than
five times seventy-fve families had
fed from their cabin homes who, in a
great majority of cases, abandoned all
their accumulations, having only their
clothing bedding and a few movable
articles. To realize what this meant
one must have experienced the trial;
written words cannot fully portray it.
Then followed the war of the rebel
lion which virtually stopped immigra-
tton and drew virile, adventurous, pa
trtOtic men from our midst to the the
alter of war, and impelled loyal men
to arm against the disloyal, which,
strange as it may appear, in many
cases were in our midst until after the
battle Of Gettysburg. {

Boiling naturally removes the valu-

meat and vegetables show the cas-

Twenty years ago this town torn with bit

Factions at each others threats and those
who should have been friends and neishbors were
foes and fighters
Stages got up in town meeting and. without
eioquence or gestures. announced that instead of a
set Of resolutions which was being bitterly de-
bated the town ought to decide that the people
spend half their time lnnding their own business
and the other half letting the business of their
ueighbors alone"
That was au But when ne sat down the cold
common sense of the proposal struck home and
the people shouted That it good resolution"

The pavements were not designed for such use
and Il was never intended that the thousands of
dollars spent upon them should be ruthlessly de-
stroyed and wasted because drivers OF heavy trucks
prefer them. while they last to other streets on
which the surfacng is stronger and not so easily

There are heavy busses on many OF these streets.

Next spring or next fall at the latest. there will
be a demand for repairs. The streets will be
less for any purpose and a bad advertisement for

should be promptly stopped. II it is not the people
