Ho saya that everybody Is coming to -the4-Aiewl and -Clark fair from--the Coos Bay ; country. That will mean that Coos county will have a repre sentation at Portland In the next four or Ove months of at least' 11,000 people. Mr. Baumgartn.r estimates that J, 190 people- will come from Humboldt county, of which Eureka Is the capital. - If these figures are' correct the two counties touched regularly by the Alli ance will send total of over 16.000 - to- the exposition. - The only direct and easy . mode of transportation Is by boat. The Alliance makes the- round - trip Avery seven or ten daya, and the K. A. Kllburn. does about the. same, whlle .tha-Bnsnnln tom-hea those points every two weeks on her return from Angeles.; Since the company own- ' Ing the latter craft has purchased the Newport to-look after the tradeat"the mall porta along the' coast it la gen erally supposed that the Roanoke will - atop at only Ban Francisco; from Tow on while en --route between Portland and the southern California city. ' rnnnal event there wIH only be three ordinary 'slsed steamers-to take care of the bualnesa at the towns be tween here and the Bay city. "They will be unable to handle the passenger traf fic, and as a natural consequence other -teamerawrtll be placed on the" route. ... Mr. Baumgartner says for some time bis company has contemplated another "vessel on the route. -.Vt " i----The Coos Bay country," he aald, "la one of the finest of which the state of Oregon can boast. It ia marvelously rich In agricultural resources. On this - trip the Alliance brought to Portland a couple of sacks of potatoes' which will be placed on exhibition at the fair. - tOach Back contains 100 potatoes weigh lug lOOpounds to the sack. - They came ' from four-acre patch of land Trom which the owner haa sold thla.yer ' potatoes which netted him a trifle more . .than 1 400. - And-, titer are thousands of acres, in that locality Just like It.

He will go home to day. Captain Scott, who accompanied him from the sound, will remain at Portland for a few daya. It la general ly believed that he Intends to bring the ateamer Telegraph here and run her as an excursion boat during the fair. The owner declared yesterday that this plan might be carried out, but as yet he was unable to say definitely. He says if he brings her here he will operate her himself, as she Is not for sale.
