His| selection is a guarantee that the policy that has | made Portland’s famous newpaper first among West- ern dailies for most of its long lifetime will be continued. The Oregonion, like the New York Sun before jt was bought by Frank Munsey, has been an ef- fective college of jonrnalism. Many of the best writers and soundest thinkers of the Pacific Coast have been developed on it. Many a youth who never attended college attained profound education and high scholarship through employment on its editorial staff. It would be hazardous to attempt an enumeration of even & partial list of them for so many would be forgotten. Alfred Holman, Albert Bigelow, Edgar Piper, Paul Kelty are only a few of the very able newspapermen who grew to great cartoons and witticisms of the twenty years in- tervening since his seventieth anniversary in 1911; it is proof enough of how much he catches out of the stream of time. But no one who has got through a rainy day in some English country hotel | by turning out a stack of old bound “Punches” need be told how vividly the past is enshrined in these perennial pages. Or how well that special form of humor wears. | Concerning established humor there can be no disputation. As Mr. Punch observes, when pressed as to why he has lived so long, he “murmurs some- thing about high spirits and sound circulation” and “takes refuge in one of his own jokes. He | believes the reason he is ninety is because he was| born in 1841." An old joke—but a good one.
