Secretary McVeigh proposes n plan to reduco tho slito of pnpor money. A plan to reduce tho ninount In tho worklnKinan's jenns linn already hccti completed through tho recant tariff bill revision, no it appears. Wo oaw n team of mulcu on tho streets of Portland tho other day for which tho owner ashed ffio nnd wo decided that the next tlmo n die satisfied subscriber called us a Jack nun wo would reflect a llttlo buforo taking It as an Insult. From rucent deinonstratlons given thcro can bo no doubt of tho fact that tho air Biilp hao comu to stay It has proven to bo practical and fcaslbla and from prosont prospects tho tlmo will not ho long until tho atmosphero wilt ho well laden with theso "birds." - It In estimated that tho crops In tho United Slates this year will yield 3,000,000,000 bushels of corn, 1, 027,000,000 biiHhelH or oats, 700,000, 000 bushels of wheat and n corres pondlngly heavy ryo harvest. Now got busy and comer It, you Wall street, wall-eyed sharks, "Itafflvs," who hail tho city of Portland guessing ns to bin Identity last winter In tho .loiirniil circula tion scheme, was arrested nnd lodged In Jail for working tho short chango racket In Han Francisco on Friday of last week. It saems that tho police of that city had 110 difficulty In hi eating him. More Interest should ho taken by our pooplo In tho project of running n street car lino from tho Hwlft pack lug plant to Ht. Johns. It will all come In good tlmo, but ran bo hastened very materially by our people Joining hands with tho Pen Insula folks and pushing the thing along, Too much pressure cannot ho brought to bear In an attempt to In duce tho trolley company to grant this boon, It would ho tho making of Ht. Johns It It could bo brought about. the corn f fold and killed herself cat Ing green corn. Hearing tho racket tho wlfo ran, upsetting a four gallon churn of rich cream In a basket of kittens drowning tho whole flock. In tho hurry she dropped u $7 set of false teeth. Tho baby, left alone crawled through tho spilled milk and then Into tho parlor, ruining n brand now $20 carpet. During tho excite ment tho oldest daughter ran away with tho hired man, tho dog broke up u I oven sotting hens, and tho calves got out and chowed tho tails off four fine shirts, All for tho want of subscribing for tho homo paper, o Tho strike riots nt tho Pressed Steel Car works, AIcKeeB Hocks, Pa, aro still far from being uuollod. Eight deaths resulted from Saturday's out break alono and tho police, deputies and stalo constabulary seemed unable to copo with tho situation, In com meuclng this strlko tho striking workmen nro unquestionably In tho right, Tho management of these works hns always been notoriously Indifferent to tho Iosh of llfo nmong their employes resulting from unsafo and unguarded machinery, Tho av erago of oiiu man per day has been tho death record from accldonts In theso works almost from tho tlmo they were first started. Not only this, but according to novcral authentic statements of employes the foremen of tho different departments have been In thu habit of selling the Jobs to tho highest blddors, costing tho applicant from $10 to $50 to so euro employment, and within perhaps six weeks tho employe would re celvo his dlschargo to mako room for another man with tho price, and It seems thnt tho man dlschnrged could soon gel his former Job again upon agreeing to pay tho graft required. Ah thlH purchase money was deductei from thu pay duo tho wagu earner, It Is scarcely possible that tho head of the company was Ignorant of theso transactions and must bavo shared In the proflta thereof. Theso nro only two of tho grievances upon which tho strikers demand fair play, and there should bo somo menus provided by law whereby they could secure It. Il Is deplorable, however, that any loss of llfo resulted on account of tho riots, and no wrong could con done tho strikers' participating In causing blood to bo shed. Hotter meat was never sold than can always bo bought ntT. P. Ward's market. Special prices Saturday, THE PORTLAND FAIR AND LIVE STOCK EXPOSITION. Proposals for Stmt Work, ORDINANCE NO 254. Tho primary object In organizing tho Portland Fair and Livestock Ex position was to foster and advance tho livestock Interests of Oregon and also of tho Northwest. With this object In view tho business men of Oregon got together and formed such an organization. Among tho promo tors aro Portland's and Oregon's prominent bankers , wholcsalo and retail merchants, Through their un tiring efforts Portland has one of the best equipped fair plantB on the pa clflc coast. $200,000.00 were spent In securing this plant and today It Is tho talk of tho Pacific coast. Tho race track Is a regulation mllo track, laid out and built on tho best plans obtainable. It Is considered the fastest track on tho const and this was demonstrated last year when Itay O'hlght paced to tho coast's threo-yoar-old rdcord of 2:08. Tho grandstand Is situated on tho north side of tho grounds mid from It ono of thu finest panoramic vlows In Oregon may bo seen. At most every part of tho entire groundt Is visible from the grandstand and an unequalled vlow of tho races may bo seen from It, IJnrns for horses, cattle, sheep nnd swlno have been built and each Is arranged for Its special purpose Tho barns nro largo and roomy and pro sont a nice appearance and exhibitors who wero at tho fair last year speak very highly of tho accommodations. Tho business men mid citizens of Portland feel Justly proud of tho $200, 000.00 plant and nil Oregon should turn out and support this fair, which will bo held September 20-LTi, and a banner crowd Is expected.
