The choice of thii route wan made because of the burning of bridges on the Central Pacific. Not far distant is the time when Oregon grates in eijunl quantities will be sent by the fame route, for thousands of choice grae vines have been set out the past few years, and many large vine yards will soon come into fine bearing condition.

Di HiMi the week the Oregon state fair has been in ; progress at Salem, and in many respects is the finest ; ever held by the association. Exhibits of live stock, I Ulli'lt flu utllil twirunil utwii.ti nml lww.a n .......

The same may be said of the exhibits of ag ricultural ami dairy products. Great crowds from all i over the northwest have been in attendance daily, view . ing the exhibits and witnessing the speed programme. Ox Thursday, tho 'Jlith of this month, the mam moth exiHisition of tho North Pacific Industrial Asso ; ciation will begin in Portland. The association has the largest ami most complete building for that pur ; pose on the Pacific coast, and has spent 2"0,(MX) in : preparation for this event. Every available inch of ; lb space has brn engaged ami the exhibits will be -f the widest diversity of character ever gathered together west of the Hocky mountains. The music 1 will be furnished by Senor I.iherati's great New York I band and will be eipial to the music at any exposition I in the Tinted States. Reduced rates of fare have been secured, and no doubt for a month Portland will be j crowded with visitors. That "lost cabin" story by un "old tinier" with ''"''''"'it'1 name of Jones, which appeared in the hatcon, I.ViviHf, has nothing remarkable about it but flu t ,lm' litors of the northwest are willing to dplay their ignorance of the history of the country by K'vuig it space in their columns.
