the details of the programme have ben
worked out by a committee of fifteen
member recently appointed by Mayor
Sommer. A hostesa of the day, Mrs

Q. A. Harding and Mr. W. E. Pratt.
With scarcely a alngle exception, the

exercise: Address of welcome on be
half of the state. Hon. Jefferson Meyers; !
address of welcome on behalf of Lewis !
& Clark Exposition Commission
should be made for Incidental, which
Include admission to several attraction
on the Trail, the amusement street.
The schedule of expense per day for
the average person of economy then, is
a follows:
Lodging, per day.,.,.,..,....l.00
Meal , (i,oo
Admission 50 ,
Trail show, etc G0
Thl schedule I on the basl of a five
day, stay at the fair. AH who can possi
bly do so should plan to spend at least
ten day, however. For these the ex
pense need not be quite o great per day,
a it may be possible to get room at a
lower rate by engaging them for a week
or more, and the entire expense per day
may be reduced to $2.50. The person who
spend the longer period hould take ad
vantage of the opportunity to view some
wonderful scenery within a short distance
of Portland. A five cent fare by treet car
take one to Portland Height, where
a wonderfully fine view of the city, the
Willamette and Columbia river, and the
snow-capped mountain may be enjoyed.
Other delightful but Inexpensive trip
Include a visit by treet car to City Park
and a ride on the Willamette river by
boat. The cost of these trip may be
deducted from the fifty cent a day al
lotted for Trail attraction and souvenir,
since the total expense for these tea
ture need not exceed the $2.60 laid aside
In figuring the cot of the five-day trip.
Figuring as above, then, the expense
of a five-day and a ten-day tay at the
Fair may be reckoned aa follow:
Lodging $5.00
Meal 6.00
Admission and Incidental. 5.00
Total necessary expense,.

McBRIDE IS WANTED
NDORSED BY CLACKAMAS COUNTY
BAR ASSOCIATION.
Judge for Fifth Judicial District Rcom-
'mended for Appointment to
Succeed Bellinger.
Unanimous Indorsement of Circuit
Judge T. A. McBride for United States
District Judge to succeed the late C. B.
BHlnger, waa had Monday at a special
meeting of the Clackamas County Bar
Association.
The. Association wan convened In the
morning and a committee, consisting of
Attorneys C. D. Latourette, Franklin T.
Griffith, Gordon E. Hayes, H. E. Cross,
Grant B. Dlmlck and W. 8. TTRen, was
named to draft resolutions of indorse-
ment. Friends of Judge McBtide are
working to secure hie indorsement for
the appointment In the other counties
constituting the Fifth Judicial District.
At an adjourned session of the Bar
Association the same day, the following
resolutions, reported by the committee,
were unanimously adopted:
Whereas, A vacancy exists in the office
of United States District Judge for the
District of Oregon by reason of the death
of the lamented C. B. Bellinger and which
vacancy is to be filled by appointment by
the President.
Whereas, The vacancy thus caused
should be filled by a member of the bar
of Oregon of profound learning and ability
and possessing In the highest degree the
moral and Intellectual attributes essen
tial to the proper discharge of the duties
of that high office.
Whereas, Hon. Thomas A. McBride.
now serving his third consecutive six
year term as District Judge of the Fifth
Judicial District of Oregon, having been
elected without opposition at the election
of 1904 after presiding 12 years In this
court with a record of ten years as Dis
trict Attorney for this district Immediate
ly preceding his election to the bench In
1802, and So years of experience at the
bar and on the bench and during these
many years of our association with him.
we, in common with the people of thla
district, comprising the counties of Clack
amas, Washington, Columbia and Clatsop,
have learned to place unquestioned faith
and trust In his honor, integrity and abil
ity. We believe no other Judge in Oregon
transacts more business and the record
of appeals from his Judgment to the Su
preme Court of the state shows that no
other Judge In Oregon is sustained In a
higher percentage of cases, and If the
statistics were available we believe they
would Ihow that no other Judge In Ore
gon has so small a percentage of his
Judgments appealed to the Supreme Court
and recognizing his great learning, emi
nent fitness and the" unswerving integrity
with which he has administered Justice
in this court for so many years and en
deared himself to the bar of the whole
.tt as a lust Judge and a man not only
learned In the law, but possessed In a
marked degree of those rare personal
qualities that win and hold the confi
dence and esteem, not only of all members
of the bar. but of the public generally.
Resolved, That we do heartily indorse
and recommend the Hon. Thomas A. Mc
Bride for said appointment

What It Costs to See the Fair.
Visitors at the Lewis and Clark Ex
position in Portland this summer will be
surprised to find how cheaply . the big
fair may be seen. The expenses of a trip
depend largely, of course, upon the In
dividual who makes the trip, but a fixed
schedule of expense has been prepared
which enables one to get a fairly ac
curate Idea of the cost of seeing the ex
position. The visitor in Portland will find an
abundance of suitable accommodations,
and it may be said authoritatively that
no one need pay in excess of one dollar
a night for clean, comfortable lodgings.
Within the past few months temporary
hotels and lodging houses with a grand
total of 2670 rooms have been erected
near the main entrance to the grounds,
while the American Inn, within the
grounds, has 686 rooms. In addition to
these accommodations, the Hill Military
Academy and St. Helen's Hall will be
available, while almost every house In the
district between the downtown portion
of Portland and the exposition will take
lodgers during the summer, In most
cases accommodations may be found
within easy walking distance of the
grounds, and a five cent street car ride
is available, from any part of the city.
While the average price charged for
lodging will be one dollar per night per
person, many rooms may be obtained, es
pecially in the temporary hotels near the
grounds, for seventy-five, fifty or even
twenty-five cents.
Most people will fine? It more convenient
to take breakfast at their lodging place or
at a downtown restaurant than at the
grounds. Twenty-five cents should pay
for breakfast, and twenty-five cents for
luncheon within the grounds, while for
the evening meal fifty cents may be con
sidered a fair price,, making" the cost of
three meals one dollar.
Admission to the grounds costs fifty
cents, and an allowance of a similar sum

A copy of these reuoiuuu..., - -----ed

Judge G. E. Hayes presided at the
meeting of the Bar Association and when
the resolutions had been adopted, he ap
pointed a committee consisting of H. E.
Cross. C. D. Latourette and J. U. Camp
bell to escort Judge McBride Into the
court room. In one of his characteristic
speeches of eight minutes, Judge Hayes,
as chairman of the meeting, notified
Judge McBride of the action that had
been taken by the Association. Re
sponding. Judge McBride feelingly thank
ed the organization for the unanimous
indorsement he had received.
RAIN DAMAGES GRAIN.
Farmers Report That Much Grain Is Laid
to the Ground.
The almost Incessant rains of the last
week has played general havoc with the
growing grain. In many localities. George
LaZelle, of New Era, who was In the city
Tusday In attendance at a meeting of the
Lewis & Clark exhibit committees, re
ports that because of the rains, a field
of eight acres of the finest fall sown
wheat that he ever raised in the state has
been laid to the ground. He fears that
the condition of the grain Is of such
character that he will be compelled to
cut it for hay. The stas, which had
blossomed and were well headed out.
are six feet. tall and promised a yield . of
from 50 to 60 bushels per acre. Slmiliar
reports have been received from other
sections. But for further unfavorable
weather, the grain and hay crop of Clack
amas county will be beyond all precedent
this year.
j J. Mallatt. of Mulino, was In the
city Tuesday and says that the aphis
pest has appeared on growing wheat and
oats but not to an alarming extent. A
few days of warm weather will rid the
grain of the pest. Mr. Mallatt says
there is every prospect for a record break
ing crop of hay If the weather does not
continue unfavorable for its harvesting.
Be Careful About Fires.
The responsibility for themiscellaneous
starting of forest fires and neglect in
guarding them, has been fixed in Clack
amas county.
Judge McBride this week dismissed the
suit of Lucy A. Cubbage against Michael
Kiesecker, the case having been settled
out of court. This was a companion suit
to that of Susie Cooper against Kiesecker
that was tried In the circuit court' a few
weeks ago and in which the Jury returned
a verdict for the plaintiff In the sum of
$250, action having been brought for a ,
Judgment of $500. The testimony at the
trial Bhowed that Kiesecker started the
fire which destroyed the buildings and
growing crops of the plaintiffs. Rather
than carry the case to the Supreme Court
or stand a trial In the second case,
Kiesecker made a settlement with the
plaintiffs.
