" The second annual exhibition of the First Southern
Oregon District Agricultural society is to he held in Med
ford for three days, commencing October 1 next. The list
of premiums is the largest ever offered in this section, and
in-addition to the regular prizes for livestock, fruit, veg
etables, art work, mine exhibits, etc., there will he a long
list of special prizes offered. .
The -First Southern Oregon district comprises Jack
son and Josephine counties, and the district' receives a
state appropriation for premiums, etc. Last year the fair
was held at Grants Pass, this year at Medford, and ex
hihits from all sections of both counties are requested and
expected. ,
The Jacksonville I'osl is evidently in ignorance of the
fair -scheduled for Medford, although it. has been freely
advertised in the papers ami posters have been hung at
the county seat. It is trying to start an agitation for a
fruit, fair in Jacksonville, and proposes to ask the balance
of the countv for both exhibits and cash. Ot course, two
fairs in the county would be an absurdity, for neither
would amount to much, and Jacksonville had better await
its' turn and secure the district fair next. time.
i'.The Post seriously discussed the fair as though there
were' not already a fail' association and a fruit growers'
association in existence, as follows:
.'"The. question being asked on (lit? street is 'if we hold
a fruit, fair this fall where will we house the crowd V Well,
this" question is of importance because we can expect 1",-
000 people here and probably .")000 would want to stay over
night, possibly two nights. At present, we would not be
able to keep more than 10(H). Tents could lie rented, also
bedding, and if necessary a temporary building could be
erected to handle the crowd. This question should he eon
sidored later, because there will he plenty of accommoda
tions, for all. There are men in Portland who are waiting
to make a few thousands of dollars by erecting sleeping
quarters' fur our guests.
"This exhibit could be shipped to Salem for the state
fair in'. September," thereby 'killing two birds with one
stone,' fund the premiums that would undoubtedly be
awarded to us would pay the expenses of the exhibit di
rectly, though a little expense should not stand in the way.
l,'',Make it a Rogue River valley fair and at the same t inie
organize a fruit growers' association and let our fruits
be advertised to the world. Kvery city in the valley would
be benefited and the entire vallev."

COMMUNICATION!.
Ashland' Celebration.
ASHLAND, Or., July 10, To the Edi
r.r: 1 note what you say editorially in
a recent isHut? regarding the Hcemiiig
slight given Medford by the Telegram
correspondent front Ashlaud. 1 have
been unable to find out who the Tele
grain corrcauondent in Uftre. I do not
believe that they Lave a regular cor
respondent, and 1 bave no idea who it
was that flent in the "Hpefial" refer
red tu. It was unjust to Aledford, how
ever, as everybody in Atdiland realizes
and appreciates the fact that Medford
added very materially to the success
of our celebration, and Ahblaud us a
whole is hoping; to help Medford out
on the fair tuia fall.
f assure yon that Ahlnnd bas
quarrel with Medford, and 1 believe
that lltere are more reasons now for
concerted, harmonious action on the
part of the several towns of llm Rogue
Kiver valley than ever before.
We regret that Medford was omit
led in the 'special" refei.i.d to, and
uppreciutc the liberal view vou took
of the apparent errur.
Thanking you for your friendly at
titude, I a in very cordiallv,
V. M. DU BOIS,' Secretary.

The Oregoiiian of Thursday morning, under the edi
torial caption, "Idaho's I'olilieal (lambler," made a most
unwarranted attack on ex-Senator Dubois of Idaho, refer
ring to him as a renegade, a cheap politician, and much
othtr. abusive expletive that is wholly unwarranted by
Dubois' political record.
'.Jlubois has served the slate of Idaho long and faith
fully in the United Slates senate and elsewhere in posi
tions of trust, and in every storm has proved himself to be
rook and oak. He retired from the I'liited States senate
without. a 'single stigma against his name, and when
Mite.heH and henchmen of the Orcgoniau were under in
dietnutnt for all sorts of governmental fraud no suspicion
evef'qt'tachcd to the honorable record of hYcd T. Ihihois.
The Oregoiiian displayed a most ludicrous ignorance
of fdahn 'polities in its excoriation of Dubois, and its attempted-defense
of the Mormon hierarchy is little short of
lujji'chy' The polygamous .Mormon church is in full con
IttVr iff the politics of (twit slate, and )ulois is making j

Kyer sliivt .Mark I fun mi formal his ('Htrfifod .illi
aiirvMvith (Jit4 polygamous prosidoul of flic Aformon hierarchy-
tho. politics of Idaho have liccu dictated from the
Mormon templo in Salt I,akt and the t ifhe-paying fanat
ics of that church have heeu voted like sheep.
''The Mormons as a sect are compelled to take an iron
clad oath against the government of the I'uiled States and
'jo ftvenge the blood of Joseph Smith upon this nation, aid

could. make a worthy citizen of this country. Yet they alt-1

I herewith hand vou watt read iu the

lu the inatttT.
As you probably know, the news-
pa per ft of OruntM Vuha have nut bt
live, wideawake in the upbuilding uf
our loeiihtv, and it may be that our
Big Stick club may turn itn attention
tu tbi-He publications before the Heanun
in over, and more e.tpeeially that uf the
Observer, owing to its attitude toward
lifferent prupusitiouii of lalH.
The "innef circle" is at Work, and
it appears t hat t hey have plenty uf
work lu do. If you wish we will keep
you pouted uf the principal movements
which wo will allow to be handed tu
tho people. At first it wan nut the
intention uf our' club tu give any pub
licity to the circle, but we feel that
the information that one of our mem
hers handed you, and which must have
appeared in tho columns of your pa

Cloud-Shadows.
To the Editor: Tntier eaptiou 1
Davis Highest Peak"' (Tribune, July
.'I) mention is muds uf a "cloud-figure
' ' of Engineer Nicholas seen pro
jecteJ above the summit of tho muuu
taiofl.
While this phenomenon is nut of eom
mou occurrence over tho world, still
there are places where it may be wit
nessed often. The shadow of the Itighi
may sometimes be seen very distinctly
traced upon Mountain Pilate, which is
situated to the west of the ftighi, on
tho other side of the lake of l.ueernn
This phenomenon is observable a few
minutes after sunrise.
The shadow of Mount Blanc is seen
more easily at sunset. M. M. Hrarais
ind Martins once noticed it under spe
cially favorable circumstances, the
thardow being thrown upon the snow
t'overed mount a ins and gradually ris
iug in the atmosphere until it reached
n height of 1 degree, still remaining
iuito visible. The air abnvo tho cone
of the shadow was tinted with a rosy
purple, having such delicate Itierging of
colors as would drive an artist insane
iu an effort to put the same arrange
ment ou canvass.
The specter of the Bracken (Brock
nou) is another atmospheric pheiiome
non that has aroused no incotisidera
hlo interest among the scientists and
savants of Knrope and America. The
Broeken is the highest mountain in
t lie picturesque 11 art t. chain, running
through Hanover. Mane made several
aironts of this mountain for the pur
pose uf witnessing this phenomenon. His
efforts f inallv were rewarded, and he !
was afforded a most interesting though J
a wierd sight of the apparition. Thoui'h
strange and grotesque, the sight of this
hadow figure" is said to impress
upon one's mind thioight uf huge eter
nal possibilities.
Sometimes these specters are sur
rounded by colored concentric ureas.
The effect is pleasing and wonderful
Once I'lloa, with sit companions, was
mi the f unibar area at diivbreak one
morning, and each one of the bo von
persons beheld hiumelf reflected in the
center of a triple rainbow of dirTerout
colors, nor wan anyone of I he seven
vis. hie to any hot himself iu tin1 center
of the circles. AH these hows were wr
peiidicular to the horizon, they moved
iu the direction of ami followed the
image of the person whom they eu
veloped as with u glory. A similar tip
pantiou waa observed iu the polar re
gions by Scorenby.
The meteorologist, Kaenitr, discover
ed that whenever his shadow was pro
jeclM upon a cloud in the Alps his
head appeared surrounded by a Inmin
ous aureole
On the same plinciple belloous are
sometimes reproduced in cloud forms
at a considerable distanco from the
earth's surface, and when surrounded
by folored concentric circles present
striking appearance.
While as yet no defnit conclusion
