 In dogged pursuit of the master editorial
Another editorial that teaches humility to editorial scribblers is "Where to Bury a Dog," which was written by Ben Hur Lampman (now, there's a byline!) for The Oregonian on Sept. 11, 1925.
Lampman, apparently wishing to spread the good cheer and give equal time to the cat community, also wrote an editorial titled "The Cat Can't Come Back," about what it is like to live in a house when the cat has gone off to scratch the great curtains in the sky.
So today, inspired by the example of Ben Hur Lampman, and in a late bid for immortality, I wish to tell you about dearly departed Lex.

Lampman was Oregon's poet laureate from 1951 until his death in 1954, and a long-time columnist at The Oregonian.
There are, perhaps, a few too many stops before Lampman brings Mary Elizabeth home and the reason for the book's title becomes clear, but there are several moments in the novel that left me shuddering, such as the moment when a sibyl offers the girl the chance to see everything that lies around the bend:

 TIME.com: Oregonian Forges Ahead -- Dec. 8, 1941 -- Page 2
Ben Hur Lampman, 55, is the Oregonian's beer-barrel poet and "genius," whom Editor Parrish calls "the country's greatest editorial writer on nature and whimsey." His editorials are much reprinted, from coast to coast.
He wears flowing fl ties (one made from one of his wife's old fl silk stockings) and is a tireless fisherman.
A favorite fishing companion is his Japanese dentist, brother of a Tokyo mayor, a jujitsu artist and fabulous drinker, who while fishing with Ben Hur emptied a pint of whiskey at one gulp, tossed the bottle into the air and shattered it with his target pistol.

 WDFW -- Warmwater Fish of Washington
During this same period, the number of warmwater angler-days increased from 2.1 million to almost 6.2 million; the percentage of all resident game fish anglers fishing for warmwater species increased from 52.3% to 62.7%; and the number of Washington anglers indicating a preference for warmwater species increased from 23% to 34.3%.
According to Ben Hur Lampman in Coming of the Pond Fishes (published in 1946, and the basis for most historical information in this document), the earliest introduction of exotic fish in the Northwest was carp in 1880.
As most readers probably realize, carp are not a favorite in the Northwest, for either anglers or fisheries managers.
