County Judge Henry has re ceived a communication from the Ore gon commission of the Alaska-Yukon- Pacific exposition, of which W. T. Wright, of Union, Is a member, set ting forth what the commission de sires from this county, and what the county cox'vt :tw do t- put tMs com munity before the thousands and thousands -of eyes at the coming fair. The letter received by the county court Is self-explanatory, and it Is use less to say that the court will take prompt action to comply with the re quest: ' , . . , , Portland, Ore., May 15, 1908. Dear Sir: The Oregon commission to the Alaska-Yukon-Pacific exposition Is glad to Inform you that the Ore gon building, now under construction at Seattle, will be completed In due time for the coming exposition, and will be the largest and most complete state building on the grounds. We propose to make a collective exhibit of the state's resources In this building, and It is of the utmost Im portance that we have a thorough and attractive exhibit from every eouc'.y. You can readily see that we must have your hearty co-operation In this motter, and that the gathering of an exhibit must commence at once. Vo will have to use the crops raised this year, as the exposition opens the first of June, 1909, too early for next year's crop. Your grasses will soon he ready for harvest find It is Important that you gather them at the proper tlmo. If they arc over-ripe they will not do for exhibition purposes; hence you see the necessity of acting prompt ly. n o win visit your county some time In Juno or July and will be glad to assist you In the work, though It will be necessary for you to begin col lecting your exhibit before we see you. The expense to your county in col lecting such an exhibit will not be large. Get a live man to take hoM of the work and push it, bearing In mind that It Is quality, not quantity, that Is wanted. After you have gath ered your exhibit we will transport It to Seattle, Install and maintain it with, out further expense to your county, we will also place an attendant In charge and will keep In close touch with you during the fair, so that your county will get all the benefit possi ble In the way of advertising, etc. The commission Is also having print ed a ((-page booklet on the resources of Oregon which will be distribute during the exposition. Two pages of this booklet will be devoted to each county. We also Intend to show by moving pictures the farms, orchards, livestock, timber, mountains, streams, and everything of Interest In each county. We must have your help and co operation In the gathering of your ex hibit ' If we were compelled to buy these exhibits the state would have to double Its present appropriation, but with your assistance we hope to carry out present plans without ask-' Ing for any further appropriation. Trusting to receive an early 'reply saying you are with us In the work, and thanking you In advance for giv ing this your prompt attention, we are Yours very truly, ' W. H. WEHRUNO, .. .-.
