IDEAL WEATHER, GOOD MUSIC, ENTHUSIASTIC
CROWDS, ALL GO TO MAKE SECOND DAY OF
FAIR BEST ONE SO FAR.
Many Visitors Came Yesterday From Surrounding Towns
Towns To Join in Making This Fair Most Successful
From Every Standpoint.
Nearly three thousand people were in attendance at
the Malheur County Pair yesterday and all were well iat-
isfled with the races and the amusement provided for them
The W'eiser hand was one of the principal attractions and
many hundreds of visitors came in yesterday on trains
and in autos from the surrounding towns and country.
One of the principal features of the fair this year has
been that the program has started on time and all the
events are pulled oft 00 time, avoiding any delay or waits.
The trotting laces were good yesterday although coiisid
erahle time was lost in jockeying with the horses in start
ing. Today the starter has made the announcement that
this jockeying will not be tolerated and the trotting or
pacing honed will be started without delay.

OVER GOOD ROADS
If the little town of Hood River
can afford to bond Itself for h,00o
to bring the Columbia Highway
through their little city, why can't
the county of Malheur afford to
spend a little money, and Its cltl-
xens unite In an effort, to bring the
State Highway over the proposed new
route. This is the question being
asked by Dr. I'rlnxlng who haa just
returned from a visit to the western
part of the state. The proposed new
route Is to leave the Columbia river
a short distance above The Dalles
and take a short cut in a southeast
erly direction, connecting with the
Idaho State Highway at Ontario and
Pruitland. It is claimed that this
route will bring the highway through
the lowest pitHH In the Utue mountain
and will be 120 miles shorter than
the route formerly proposed through
l.a Grande and Daker.
(aillam, Wheeler and Malheur
counties would equally benefit from
ihi route and It Is hoped that com
mittees will immediately get In com
munication with the organisations In
these counties and make plans to
work harmoniously for the highway.
Dr. I'rlnxlng Is more than enthu
siastic over the scenic beauty of the
Columbia Highway. He states that
he was over the greater part of It,
and believes that nothing in the for
eign countries could equal the nat
ural beauty along this road. Every
available Hpot of beauty has httnn
brought out and paved ruadH or paths
lead to all the attractive places.
Portlaud Is spending an enormous
sum this year, states Dr. Prliizlng,
to bring the transcontinental travel
through I', .Miami, .,iid so far has suc
ceeded in bringing many thousands
of tourists there, who are lavish In
their praise of the city and the beau
tiful drives. That Portlaud has suc
ceeded lu bringing the tourists
there In the past few years is demon
strated in the fact that six mammoth
hotels have been built In the past
ten years, some of them with as many
as 750 rooms each.
