CATCH 05 FAIR CROWD Secretary Anthony Mohr, of tke Sampter district branch off the State Miners' asooiation, la aonsiderig tbe advisability of calling a mass meeting of local merchants and miniug men at some early date to formulate plans for an aggressive advertising 'cam paign duriug the Lewis and Clark fair. It is believed that a large number of fair visitori from tbe east can be brought into this district and ibowa over tho country. Such a piuceadlua: will inevitably result in tho iuveat meut of much outsldo capital, as a personal inspection of the big miuere of tbu Sumpter camp creates a natural euthuaiaBin aud amdiratiou. H Effort will ba made, first, to pre pare a comprehensive ore exhibit at the fair; second, tbe plaolug of a competeut man iu obarge thereof; third, tbe dlstrihputiou of literature oontlainiug statistical matter relative to tbla camp; fourth, tbe aeouriug of special ratea from tbe O. R. A N. and Sumpter Valley railroads; and flaully, tbe orgaulsaiton of a reoea. tlou committee in Sumpter, whose duty it shall ba to eutertaiu tbe visitors aud guide them to points of interest. Hearty co operation and liberal subscriptions will be neces sary to carry out these plaus. "Among tbe hundreds of thousand of visitors to the Portland fair," said Secretary Mohr to a Minor reporter today, "we ought to be able to divert a few score ou a viiit to this camp."
