THE FAIR WILL HAVE
MANY NEW FEATURES
Oskar Huber, director of works of the
Lewis and Clark exposition, returned
yesterday morning from hla eaatern
pilgrimage, the object of which waa to
secure for the fslr some of the most
notable pieces of statuary exhibited at
the St. Louis show. He obtained up
wards of 10 of .the finest specimens and
they will arrive here within a few weeks.
The big exposition Is n jw a mass of
wreckage, or practically so. It was
turned over to the wrecking firm of
Harris Bros.. Chicago, and through them
Mr. Huber Is dealing for some, of the
great electrical effects which struck his
fancy, i
"Our exposition," ssld he this morn
ing, wilt be different to any ever be
fore held. Of course 'we cannot com
pare with St. Louis, nor Chicago. In ex
tant and architectural magnificence, but
we will have many features that no
other fair has had. None other haa had
such a magnificent site, such water fa
.'littles, such compactness snd general'
loveliness as Portland's show will have.
"It was extremely gratifying to learn
of the wide publicity tha exposition has
received In the middle states and the
anxiety of the people to learn all about
this section of tha country, and especi
ally tha fair."
Mr. Huber found a great amount of
work awaiting him upon his return and
started In vigorously to accomplish it.
frequent meetings
for Better roads
Portlsnd delegates who have returned
from the state convention of the Ore
gon Good Roads association say It was
ths bast meeting ever held In the state
In tha Interest of good roads. The at
tendance was large, the speeches valua
ble and the enthusiasm great.
"Now. If they only won't forget all
about It when they get home, the con
vention will do a world of good for
Oregon." said W. R. Williams today,
discussing the work or the convention.
"One of the bast things dons was to
resolve to hsve four big meetings esch
year Instead of one annusl convention
aa heretofore. There must bo some
thing doing all the time to keep the sub
ject of road Improvement before ths
people, or they will weary of the work
snd put It out of mind. As soon as
the discussion stops the subject Is laid
aside and no more good roads work Is
done until the convention day of the fol
lowing year rolla around. Then every
body Is up and enthusiastic again for
good roade. The way to get good roads
la to hammer away at It the year
round. This object will be accom
plished to a largo degree In the holdln
of four meetings a year. There Is talk
of holding the first of the 1906 meet
ings some time In January, at Grant
Pass."
