From Notes of tho Game by Charles
Drydon, published in tho Philadelphia

"It is time Ohio quit grabbing off
chunks of glory by claiming Cy Young
as her own Illustrious son. Whilo any
state should bo proud to honor Cy, ho

A Growing Town.
Last Friday the editor of this papor
accompanied tho high school base ball

to tho fact that it was their Hist game
and that they lacked team work Bert
Garbor pitched u winning game, but
his support was weak, tho Lebanon
boys making but threo safe hits, scat
tered in throe innings, scoring their
runs on errors. Tho boys woro treated
vory nicely whilo in Lebanon, and tho
gamo win entirely devoid of tho
wrangling so common to baso ball
games.
Lebanon is one of tho nicest little
towns it has ovor been our pleasure to

have alroady boon built thero this
spring, and many more aro building.
Tlioro is but ono brick business block
iu tho town, but whou they onco get
started to building thero is no doubt
that tho business mon of Lebanon will
do tho right thing. Whilo Lebanon
has but about half tho population of
Hed Cloud, it does almost as largo a
business as this city, drawing trade
that should come to Hed Cloud. Tho
reason is obvious. It will bo remem
bered that last Thursday thero was a
big rain storm. For tho first llvo or
six miles south of Hed Cloud tho roads
were in vory bad shape, but, onco
upon tho hills, the roads began to
grow bettor and tho nearer approach
to Lebanon tho better tho roads. It is
no wonder that farmers prefer to go to
Lebanon, when they can haul twice
tho loads they can to Hod Cloud, even
if they do have to pay a HMlo higher
price for merchandise. It is timo the
peoplo of Hed Cloud made an or
ganized elfort to improve tlio roads
running south from here, not waiting
for the farmers along tho route to at
tend to it.
Wc Arc Learning History.
A Chicago man recently wroto to an
Oregon paper that many Chicagoans
have conceived the idea that tho u..-
it Clark Exposition, which is to open
.Juno 1 at Portland, Oregon, is a sort
of Coney Island show managed by tho
firm of "Lewis it Clark," of which
Senator Clark of Montana is tho
junior member. Though it was not so
stated by tho writer mentioned, it is
possible that these Chicagoans imag
iuo tho renowned J. Hamilton Lewis,
formerly congressman from tho state
of Washington, to bo tho senior mem
ber of the linn.
This truly is rich. Chicago ought to
luow better than that. Even tho
schoolboys in this town aro awaro that
Lewis and Clark woro two great Amor
icrn historical characters, dead and
gone these many years, who ono hun
dred years ago explored tho groat
country lying west of tho Mississippi,
going up tho Missouri river from St.
Louis to a point near its headwaters,
crossing tho Rocky mountains over
land and voyaging down tho Columbia
river to its mouth atftho Pacific ocoau
Our schoolboys know that tho success
of this expedition, which was sent out
by President Thomas .lefl'orson, result
ed iu tho acquisition of 1107,000 square
miles of territory by tho United States
out of which threo great states havo
been carved, Oregon, Washington and
Idaho, not to mention considerable
slices along tho western parts of Wy
oming and Montana.
It is not believed that ignorance as
to the meaning and importance of the
Lewis & Clark Centennial oxpositlou
is very widespread, oven in tho east,
whero as a rule matters of western
history aro not considorod of intimate
interest to tho average citizen But
the Lewis and Clark expedition which
Is to bo commemorated at Portland this
year by a great international oxposi.
tion was of such importanco in the
growth of our great nation that it
would seem that no ono should ne
glect to study it. Capt. Meriwether
Lewis aud his associate, Capt. Wil
liam Clark, were tho first Americans
to make tho journey across the conti
nent. The country which, largely by
reason of their prior exploration, was
added to our domain, gave the Uuited
States its first coast lino on tho Pa
clflc; and this acquistion led, more or
less directly, to the subsequent an
nexation of California, Alaska, Guam,
Hawaii and tho Philippines.
But if the acquistion of the Oregon
country alono had been tho ultimate
result of this expedition, that fact
furnishes the people of tho Pacific
Northwest with a sulllciont reason for
celebrating tho anniversary of the
event, and it gives the peoplo of the
rest of tho United States ample reason
to regard tho coining exposition 11s a
matter of national iuterost. Should
any further enlightenment as to the
purpose of the Lewis and Clark Expo
sition be desired, the. reader is roferrod
to any good library for books relating
to the Oregon question, the discovory
aud exploration of tho country and
tho thrilling story of its settlement
and development
