It wus a bold uadertakiDg to essay to gather people enough on the western verge of tbe United States to make an inter national fair a success. It con only he accomplished by a united and intelligent co-operation of all the forces in Oregon and in the United States. Those who have been placed) in charge and at the head of this gigantic enterprise must operate on broud line), and put themselves in friendly touch with, not only with the mass of the people of the United States, but with the leading men and those, who by their official position and influence cau do much to either assist or hinder the enterprise. To accomplish this the exercise ot a high order of diplomacy is requisite. This diplomacy, of necessity, must be exercised by the accredited head men of the fair, and largely by the president thereof. II. W. Scott, of Portland, is president of the Lewis and Clark fair, and because of his position as such, the people of Oregon watch with deep solici tude his every act in connection with that greutand costly under taking. As a inaltor of fact, while he holds that position no act of his, or statement in the paper, the editorial columns in which he controls as editor in chief, but may and most prob ably will have an influence up on tho fair.

Peare, the Jeweler charitable light was exceedingly unfortunate for the fair. In a recent editorial in the Oregonian under the head Hue "Unpalriotio Germans" after some irony about the meat eat ers and butchers in Germany, he wanders from his text to use insulting language about Mr Wilson, United State? Secretary of Agriculture. It is conceded by all that Secretary Wilson is the most popular with the own ers of the six millions of farms in the Unitod States ot any man who has ever held that high position. It is also a well recog nized fact iliut up to (he present time Secretary Wilson has evinced a deep and friendly interest in the Lewis and Clark fuir, and that from his position, and the great confidence the agriculturalists have in him, be can, most probably, do inoro to further or mar the Lowis and Clark Fail, than any single man in .the United Slates. To in sult st'.ih a man is very bad dip lumucy on tne part ol the pres ident of the Lewis and Clark Fair. In the same article Mr. Scott reitterales his free trde theory in a mitnuer to please the Cob dtn Club, but not in such a way as will please the Republicans in or out of Congress. This is mother diplomatic error, for if Congress votes the Lewis uud Clark Fair two millions or more dollars, the votes will have to be :ii'st by Republicans whom Mr. Scoot ridicules. MISCELANEOUS.

There Is a queer bird In the Jungles of northern South America which Is colled the 'panjP by the natives, but Is known to science as the ffalcaica cunia-son. It Is chiefly remarkable be cause It slug's IU own death song. It docs not really sing, but makes a deep humming noise which sounds very much like the Spanish words "131 muerto eHta aqnl" (the corpse lies here). "It Is while uttering this lugubrious rliant," said a South American travel r, "that the 'pauji' usually meets Its denth, for the hunter can then easily track It to Iw retreat, and it falls a victim, as the Indians say, to Us own death song." If the "paujl" gets suspicious It Im mediately censes humming, and that Is a sure Indication to the hunter that the bird has seen him or scents dan ger. In such a case the only thing foi tho sportsman to do Is to remain per ftcHy still. The bird may become re assured after waiting awhile and again begin to cnll, "The corpse lies here." It can then be cautiously approached nnd killed. If It is only wounded the "paujl" nsn ally escapes, though It cannot fly much better than tbe ordinary domestic fowl. It Is very fleet of foot and will outrun the hunter until It is lost In thp dense undergrowth of the Jungle. In the mating season the male "paujl Is the must pugnacious of birds and will fight Its own kind whenever It meets them. Often the flght ends Ir, the annihilation of both combatants A Sin? nl Whlstlor. A young S.M1 Franciscan, the ownei of a huge and valuable collection of au ! tographs, once wrote to J nine?
