Scope and content
Photograph showing President Warren G. Harding seated and reading a document in Meacham, Oregon, on July 3, 1923. Harding was on a trip across the nation, which included a stop in Meacham to participate in events commemorating the anniversary of the first wagon train crossing of the Blue Mountains. A cropped version of this photograph was one of eight published on Page 8 of the Oregon Journal on July 4, 1923, under the headline “Scenes at Meacham Where Early West Lived Again for President Harding and Party.” This photograph had the following caption: “Closeup of the president as he read his address on The Oregon Trail.” The commemoration included the president’s speech, the dedication of the old Oregon Trail, and a pageant depicting people and events in the history of whites’ arrival and settlement. The Oregon Journal published a story about the Meacham visit, headlined “President Dedicates Oregon Trail in Midst of Colorful Setting,” on the front page of the July 3, 1923 edition.
