In an East Oregonian piece from Pendleton, Oregon, readers are urged to envision five years of irrigation, drainage projects, and urban growth transforming Pendleton. The essay argues for waste water reuse, broader public school facilities, and coordinated development to attract investment and elevate civilization.
Congress urged to repeal revise or abolish land laws to restore order and protect public domain. Oregon’s ORB & N railway shows rapid capital expansion with upgraded motive power heavier locomotives larger cars steel bridges and longer sidetracks boosting traffic and profits reinvested to grow wealth. The piece lauds American progress and urges youth to learn English or Japanese to seize future opportunities in business education and commerce.
The oblique notice profiles Ittie Prince Micchi grandson of the Japanese aikado, touted as the future Mikado and heir to the Eastern throne. Born in April, he is described as the most interesting amal boy in the world and the first baby of the Jimmy Tenne royal line.
A historical note describes maturing prince Micchi with a cosmetic eyelid operation to alter his almond eye appearance. The procedure involved an incision at the outer lid, lashes redirected with plaster, healing within a week, and now the prince appears less Oriental. He rides a Shetland pony and enjoys miniature battleships. Sporting and political events are listed for April through June in Oregon, including Democratic and Republican state petitions, cattlegrowers and labor meetings, and the GA R encampment.
