IHATIOH (OlldSS
Boise, Aug. 27 The various committees
In charge of arrangements and entertain
ment for the National Irrigation congress
have practically completed their work
and this week will see Boise ready to re
ceive and care for the thousands of visit
ors and delegates coming to the congress.
The number of delegates will break
ail records, and the attendance from the
east and middle west will be larger than
any previous session. There are a num
ber of reasons for this. The Irrigation
congress is the only national gathering to
be held west of the Rocky mountains this
year, for which the railroads have made
special rates. Those who have contem
plated a trip to the west have waited to
take advantage of the cheap rates given,
and the liberal time allowed for seeing
the country.
Vice-president Fairbanks will ariveat
1 o'clock on the morning of September 3.
Governor Hanley of Indiana has appointed
94 delegates from among the most prom
inent citizens of that state, who will
compose the vice-presieent's party, and
this has served to attract a great deal of
attention to the occasion. It is expected
that sufficient delegates and visitors will
be brought together at Chicago to make
up a special train. . .
Arrangements have been made at
Denver to organize a special train for the
delegates arriving from the Missouri
river points, Texas and the sou :h western
states. Utah and Nevada wilt furnish
enough visitors to complete a train at
Salt Lake, and Washington, Oregon and
California people will come in the same
manner. This will relieve the congested
condition of the regular train service
and insure comfortable transportation
facilities.
A house to house canvas of the city
has been made by the committee on ac
commodations and ample sleeping ar
rangements have been provided for at
reasonable rates. Rooms will range at
60 cents, 76 cents and $1 for each per
son, and the restaurants and hotels will
maintain ordinary prices for meals. A
number of temporary restaurants will be
conducted during the congress, serving
home cooked meals at popular prices.
OREGON STATE FAIR
On account of the Oregon State Fair
which will be held in Salem, September
10-15 inclusive. The 0. R. & N. will
give a rate of one and one third fare to
Portland plus $2.26, ticket carrying pas
sengers through to Salem. The above

ditions: Sale dates September 6, 8 and 1 3.

ection up to the final limit. September, 1 7.

On Monday evening a public reception
will be given in honor of the .vice-president
and other distinguished members of
the congress, when allwill have an oppor
tunity to meet Idaho's guests of honor. '
Four splendid bands will furnish music
in all sections of the city, furnishing
entertainment for the visitors at the diff
erent places where the people will assem
ble. Attractive entertainments will be
provided by the different theatres, afford
ing something to suit the taste of all.
For the entertainment of the delegates
to the congress, the Boise Symphony
orchestra will give a symphony concert
taking place on Wednesday evening,
September 5. This organization oonsists
of 60 professional and high-class amateur
musiciane under the leadership of Prof
essor M. Christensen, director, and Prof
essor C. 0. Beach, concert master. A
classical program will be rendered, with
Mrs. F. H. Brandt, as solist.
The exposition of the products of irrig
ation will be the highest fair of the char
acter ever held in an irrigated country.
The committees in charge of this feat
ure has been alloted $4,000 pavilion and
decorations, which has enabled it to carry
out the very elaborate plans of the
architects. The exposition will be held
on Eighth street, occupying more than
two blocks. The street is paved with
brick, which will be sprinkled and kept
free from dust. The pavilion will arch
the street, with booths along the center
and on each side. Green and white
decorations will be used in profusion, and
1600 electric lights will furnish illumin
ations, rruitt, grams, grasses sugar
beets and other products are coming in
car load lots, and the most spirited
competition will prevail among the ex
hibltors from the various states for the
magnificent sterling loving cups to be
awarded. The Payette Melongrowers'
association wilt give away cantaloupes to
all delegates on a day apart for this feat
ure.
Sixty of the most prominent men in the
United States identified with irrigation
and corelated subjects are on the program
for addresses.
