The management of the fitata Fair,
which Trill open at the Salem fairgrounds
next Monday, has done a commendable
thing- this year in offering sufficiently
large cash premiums to insure the best
general display of state products ever
snade in Oregon. The men now at the
head of the State Pair are business men
of recognized standing in the communi
ties in which they reside. These men
have been selected from every part of
Oregon, and to eaoh one of these direc
tors lias been assigned the part of di
recting the -work of securing the best
display of general products in which his
section of country especially excels. In
the diversity of its resources, Oregon is
one of the richest states of the Unlorj. It
was only a few days ago that announce
ment was made through the press of the
construction of a 250-foot, six-masted
echooner of 5000 tons carrying capacity, in
the great shipbuilding yards along the
Maine coast. Each of the masts of this
leviathan of the deep, the largest schoon
er In the world, is over UM feet in length
In the lengthy descriptions of this new
vessel "which have appeared in the East
ern papers, prominence has been given
to the statement that these masts are all
of the famous Oregon pine, the only tim
ber serviceable for wooden masts of these
fast proportions. Oregon flour today is
one of the largest single items of foreign
export from the Pacific Coast; Oregon
ealmon finds Its largest sale in the Lon
don markets; Oregon blankets sold in the
best metropolitan stores of New York And
Philadelphia are conceded to be the best
blankets of domestic make in the United
States; Oregon's timber, together with
the product of Washington's forests, vir
tually meets the demand for lumber in
the South and the Middle West, and Ore
gon's fruit products And a ready sale even
as far East as New Tork City. Oregon to
day exports butter and creamery products,
where 10 years ago a considerable part
of the creamery butter sold in this mar.
!ket came from Iowa and other states east
of the Rockies.
The advancement which the industrial
interests of Oregon have made in the last
decade Is due first to the general adapta
bility of Oregon's cllmato and soils for
the de-elopment of the large business in
terests which the growth of these Indus
tries has encouraged. Beyond this, how
ever, is the value of the educational work
that has been done among the farming
communities by men who were farseelng
enough to forecast the development of
the former latent industries of the state
if proper attention were only given to
this work. A few live men showed the
people of Tillamook the ideal conditions
which existed in their section of country
for the upbuilding of immense dairy inter
ests. The success of the Tillamook dairies
stimulated the farmers of the Willamette
Valley to further effort in the same di
rection. This was followed by closer at
tention to the kinds of cattle which could
t)e raised by farmers with the assurances
of the most profitable results from the
xallk of the cows, and the meat of the
cattle when sold lor butchering. The
success of one industry was followed al
most immediately by efforts to make the
allied industries of farming more remun
erative to the producer. In the superior
ity of all its farm products, Oregon to
day Is immeasurably ahead of the Oregon
of 10 years ago, and the pride which
the management of the State Pair takes
in showing to the people of the state
the remarkable products of Oregon In
2B00 should only be equaled by the In
terest which the people of the state asr
& whole show in viewing these displays,
and studying carefully the problem of
conserving the best interests of Oregon by
the proper -attention to the development
of those interests which promise the most
fior the state's future prosperity.
If a farmer is educated along practical
lines he has all the promise of future
large rewards following the efforts of
the business man v in even the most re
munerative of other commercial ventures.
Given methodical business methods, hon
esty -and a little careful research in the
subjects pertaining to the handling of the
.industry of raising farm products in the
best manner possible, the Oregon farmer
lhas every opportunity opened to him for
tapld advancement. Wo intelligent farmer
'in the state can afford to miss the op
portunity of Inspecting carefully the ex
cellent display of the state's products
"which will be made at the State Pair
next week. The farmer, dairyman, lum
berman or fisherman who has produced
these goods, however, is under "no great
er obligation to lend his support and as
sistance for the success of the fair than
is the business man through whose ef
forts these products find a sale in the
local and foreign markets. The State
Pair affords the best of opportunities for
the business men and the producer to get
together to meet on a common ground,
with the view of giving a little study
to solving those business problems which
promise so .much for Oregon's continued
advancement and prosperity. A little can
vassing among the business community
of Portland yesterday has led to the be
lief that the Portland business people as
a whole'Will lend their best support and
encouragement to the success of the
State Pair for the present year, and it is
probable that Portland day at -the fair
next week, will witness the largest Influx
of Portland people at the fairgrounds
seen at Salem for a good many years
past. ,
STATE) PAIR'S GREATEST DAY.
"Will Be Portland or Salem Day
Portland. "Is in Lead.
SALEM, Sept 12. The greatest' day at
the state fair will be the day on which
the 'Portland Elks bring up the large
mounted elk won by the Salem lodge at
the Portland Street Pair and Carnival.
Arrangements forthe presentation cer
emony bave not been completed, but the
Salem "Elks have determined to make It
an occasion never to be forgotten. The
Portland Elks will come up in a body,
and .an invitation will be extended to all
the Oregon and Washington lodges to
come and participate in the proceedings.
'A, meeting of the local lodge will be held
tomorrow evening, when final plans will
be matured and announced. It is said
that the Salem Elks bave already ordered
several TDarrels of cider or something
else and that when their brethren Trtsit
""them on "Elk day," all will eat drink
and be merry, as only Elks can. It has
been a question between Portland day
and Salem day for the honor of being the
greatest day at the fair. If the presenta
tion of the Elks' prise shall take plane
on Portland day, as now anticipated,
there will no longer be any doubt that
the latter day will surpass all others.
The Elks never do anything by halves,
so there will be a grand good time when
the Portlanders present and the Salem
ites receive, the chief trophy of the con
gest for honors at the Portland Street
Pair and Carnival.
NcmtroBK Stock Entries.
For the first time in many years, en
tries of livestock lor exhibition at the
state fair have been made a week be
fore the opening day. Usually, the for
mal entries are not made untlj a day or.
so before the opening. The rush this
year is not duo to a fear that any will
be crowded out for the State Pair Board
has announced that it will make room
for all stock that comes. The breeders
made up their minds early in the season
to exhibit at the fair this season, and
are sending in their entries early. In order
to have stalls reserved. It has been evl-
aent, slnco Spring, that Oregon's 40th
annual state lair is destined to- be the
Greatest in Its history, and exhibitors is
have determined not to lose the best op2
portunlty in years to show their choicest
stock.
The animal that will probably attract
the most attention at the fair 1b .Ar
mour Rose, a -Hereford- cow, which be
longs to John Sparks, -of Reno, Nev.
This cow was bought at an auction in
Illinois, and'eost h,er present owner $2600.
Mr. Sparks is now exhibiting his herd at
Sacramento, and will be here before the
opening of the fair with the finest herd
of Herefords-ever exhibited on 'the Coast.
Owing to the great Interest 'now taken
In the goat and sheep Industries, the ex
hibitions of those animals will be better
than ever before. Nearly every breed of
sheep and goats will be represented by
typical specimens.
John Mlnto, the pioneer shepherd of
Oregon, will,be on hand with his Merinos,
which have been prize-winners these
many years. Among his rivals will bo
Richard Carey and T. W. Early, of -Salem.
, Shropshire sheep will be entered by
L. P. Mascher, of Sllverton; Charles
Cleveland, of,Gresham; Charles E. Ladd,
of Portland; Smldt Bros., of Shubel; J.
T. Hunt, of Whiteaker, and Ivan Porter,
of Wlllard, all of whom will -bring good
sized flocks. Among those who will ex
hibit Cotswolds are J. B. Stump, of -Independence;
i Charles E. Ladd, of Port
land, and Richard Scstt, of MilwauWe.

PORTLAND, Sept 12. (To the Editor.) Will you kindly, through
'your columns, give notice of the fact that Wells, ."Fargo & Co. will
undertake to transport money or supplies, within consistent limits,
ior Galveston sufferers, from any of thelr offices, free ofcharge? .
Tours truly, 4l EUGENE SHELBY, Agent
has declared that owing to its even oli
mate, Oregon is, the best place on earth
for the production of Cotswold wool.The
sheep entered in this class will therefore
receive special attention from visitors.
The , Glide flock of Ramboulllets, from
Sacramento, will also be on exhibition.
The sheep in this flock were, imported
from Germany and France.
There will Ibe at least three flocks of
pure Angora goats exhibited. These will
be the Landrum flook, of Texas; the Har
ris flock, of Idaho, and the Bailey .flock,
of San Jose, Cal. All the goats In theso
flocks are from 'animals imported direct
from Turkey, and are among the few
pure Angoras of the United States. -There
will also be several flocks of polled Angoras
that will be well worth the closest ob
servation by farmers who are interested
in the goat industry.
Livestock Pa.rm.de Daily.
In order that fell visitors at the. fair
may have the best opportunity to see all
the stock, there will be' a parade of live
stock every iday. While the stalls are
arranged so that those who are inter
ested may observe the build and charac
teristics of, model cattle, the stock 'will
show at the best advantage on parade.
Congrratalatioas to Portland.
Tacoma ledger.
The Census Bureau bos. announced the
population of Portland, Or., to be 90.J23,
as compared with 46,385 In 1800, an Increase
of 91.95 per cent. We hasten to congratu
late our enterprising neighbor upon a rec
ord which surpasses that of any other of
the 60-odd cities the returns from "'which
have 'been officially punched and counted
by the clerks in the census office.
The "growth of Portland is a matter of
pride .for the Pacific Slope. Bayonne, N
J., increased 71.92 par cent and last week
enjoyed the ephemeral distinction of hay
ing Increased at a ratio far surpassing
Chicago's 5LU per cent Indianapolis' 60.44
and Toledo's 6L87 per cent But Portland
outdistances all records by more than 23
points, and establishes the credit of the
far West which suffered for a while from
observations as to San Francisco's slow
growth. The Pacific seaports are holding
their own in -the development of the coun
try's commerce and Increase of popula
tion, and while the record of the Puget
Sound ports will cast that of "the Columbia
River mart somewhat In the shade, the
attention of the country" is called with
pride to the giant stride taken by our 'Ore
gon neighbor.

A. L. Andrews, superintendent of con
struction of the Great Northern tunnel

is now completed with the exception of
about S50 feet and that the -blasting on
either side can easily be heard and felt
on the other. It Is expected that trains
will be running through the tunnel by
December.
The O. B, & N. has decided. to ac
commodate the citizens of Pomeroy by
putting in a switcn just south of the two
blocks upon which brick", buildings are
to be built so the builders can unload
their building material without having
to haul It from the .depot. The com
pany has also given reduced 'rates on all

tween .the whites and Indians, ' arrayed
on one side, against the Japs, on the

wages. The employes will probably ac-
cept the offer and settle. When all the

INDIANAPOLIS, Sept 12. At 5:16

and Secretary Wilson, of the United Mine
workers of America, affixed their -signatures
to the document which will call 142,
000 miners of the Pennsylvania anthracite
region from their work Monday morning
and precipitate one of the most, gigantic
strikes in the history of the labor world.
Th document was the official Indorse
ment of the request of the anthraclto
miners to strike. It was considered by the
national executive board of the United
Mlneworkers last week, and when the
board adjourned all power to indorse the
request to strike was left in the hands- of
the national president and secretary. The

three presidents of the Pennsylvania dis
tricts. ' . -
The order is a simple recital of the pro--cedure
of the. three district bodies In ap
plying to the national board for authority
to strike, and a formal announcement
that the application Is' Indorsed, and the
strike ordered! The order says: "Do not
wait for any further notice to strike-, but
cease work In a body on and after Mon
day, September 17, 1800." ,
This afternoon President Mitchell and
Secretary Wilson sat in the headquarters.'
Both were nervous. They opened tele
grams from different parts of the anthra
cite region with feverish haste, thinking,
as they said, that each message might be
some concession from the operators that'
wouia prevent' the strike. The-three dis
trict presidents reported this afternoon
that of the 142.000 men in the three dis
tricts, 134,500 would go on strike Monday.'
President Mitchell would not state what
secret Influence had been at work to pre
vent the strike and which caused the de-;
lay. He said the persoif at work had"1
offered hls services" voluntarily and that
the matter was confidential. Aa to main
taining the men during the strike, he said:'
"When men are fighting for just wages,
they can subsist on very little. At any
Tate, it is safe to say that nobody will
starve or , want for necessary clothing.
Most of the men live in company houses,
and we must consider the probability of
eviction, but. these things have all been
fully considered. At this time if will be
folly for the organization to go Into de
tails as to .the provisions made for feed
ing and clothing the strikers."
President Mitchell will leave Saturday
for, Hazleton, Pa., to personally conduct
the strike. Before ordering the strike and
as a last resort President Mitchell -telegraphed
a warning to the presidents ' of
the Pennsylvania, "Lehigh Valley. Dela
ware & Hudson, Delaware. Lackawanna i
& Western, Central Railroad of New Jer
sey, Philadelphia & .Reading, .Erie, New

ties where anthracite coal is sold, trans
ported or used. The public, therefore Is
interested. In .the result As the company
of which you are president controls mines

JONES ON THE OUTLOOK,
He Saya the Pacific States Are Not
For Expansion. -
NEW YORK, Sept 12. United States
Senator Jones, Chairman of the National
Democratic committee, arrived In this
city last night and held a conference
with ex-Governor Stone, of Missouri, and
Congressman Richardson, minority lead
er in the House of Representatives. In
an interview he expressed' satisfaction
with the result of .the elections in "Ver
mont and Maine. He said he would' not
make. predictions as to what states the
Democrats expected to carry, because he
could not tell 'how large a- vote the Re
publicans expected-- to get In states like
Indiana, Ohio and Illinois. .He called at
tention to -the fact that four years ago,
the vote of Ohio reached the. unheard-of
proportion of one to three and a frac
tion of the population of that state as
against an average of one to every five
in previous years. The new ratio made
it extremely difficult -to estimate what
might happen in the states of the Mid
dle' West this year. However, he hoped
that the. Democrats would carry Ohio,
Indiana and Illinois.
Ask'ed whether the Issue .of expansion
would not prevent the Democrats from
carrying of the Pacific Coast States, Mr.
Jones sajd that while it was true that
some of the shipping Interests having a
direct Interest In the trade ,ln tne Orient
were in favor of expansion, onthe other
hand the worklngmen of thefar West
were opposed to anything looking to the
admission of the Filipinos into competi
tion with American labor.

part of the inhabitants of the town ahd

full-blooded Indian maidens formed a
part of' the parade,' and a brass "band,
composed entirely of young Indians, led
the procession which escorted Governor
Roosevelt and his party to the speakers

able to 'get near enough to the mounted
men, jumped over the railing of the stand
to the- ground, and was soon among
them.
"I would 'like to stay here alls day,"
he exclaimed, with delight as" hes again
mounted- the platform," preliminary to
making his short speech. ' The1" men

CREAMERIES' AND SETTLERS
Market" for Milk Asa-ares a'XiivlnK'
Colony at Forest Grove.
-Immigration agents of the railroads say
that reports of Oregon's progress In
dairying " attract much attention in the
East The people there can understand
that, success is almost certain to the man
wth cows in a grass country, when he
is assured a ready market for milk at the
creameries. The increase in creameries
in Western Oregon in the past yearmakes
It a very, attractive country for the' East
ern farmer of small capital. He does not
have to. take the chances of tilling a new
soil in a. new climate In the midst of con
ditions that he must grow1 familiar "with
before he can expect to win. The; cer
tainly l of the creamery market for milk
gives the newcomer a hold. It serves to
fortify him lna primary Industry, about
which' to organise his affairs. This Is
found to appeal with considerable force
to Eastern agriculturists who contemplate
coming West to better their condition.
They will come and establish houses,
keep cows and sell the milk to creameries
while learning how to organize and "make
the. most of other branches of jindustrV
in thenew country. This gives" prudent
men confidence and assurance. ,
A colony of 21 persons 'arrived 5 from
Beaver City, Neb., this week, and-' have
gone to Forest Grovet to-locate.These
people have moderate means and -Intend
to establish themselves In dairying and
general farming somewhere in the vicinity
of Forest Grove. The drought In Kansas
drove them to dispose of their possessions
there. They had heard oC Oregon as a.
fine country for dairying land they made
Investigation and came here. Dairying
and small farming had bean their, busl
lness In Kansas. About a score of cream
eries have been built and put In operation
In Western Oregon In the past year.' This
is a great stride for an infant industry,
and reports of this actlyity have gone
far and aroused interest in the country.
It offers newcomers who have neither time
nor means to experiment in a new coun
try something to take hold of imme
diately, and assurance that they will find
open to them at once a legitimate means
of helping .themselves. The self.-respect-lng
citizen hates to take any chance of
getting in a position where he may be
helplessv through unfamlllarity with con
ditions. '

Bruce will play his usual position at first
base where he has made such an enviable
record this season, and the old-time bat

there is none better in the Northwest, will
do the heavy work.
The Torpedoes will .Hne-up In about the

PORTLAND THE BEST MARKET
RoHslnnd Contractor Buys Sank,
Doors and Dressed Lumber Here.
J. Dunlop, a Rossland, B. C, con
tractor, who Is staying at the Imperial
for a few days, says he finds It to his
interest to purchase sash, doors, flooring,
wainscoting and other building material
In Portland, In spite of the 25 per cent
duty levied on dressed lumber by the
Canadian Government. He has been ob
taining supplies from the mills at Van
couver, B. C, but the people over there
are not fixed for turning out a good arti
cle at so cheap a rate as ths mills of
Portland, where the most modern ma
chinery Is used, and where large quanti
ties can be produced at a time. He Will
therefore procure his supplies hereafter
in this city.
Mr. Dunlop says Rossland Is now a
thriving town of 7000 people, who are
all dependent on the mines adjacent
Rossland Is high up in the mountains,
the elevation being 4500 feet above sea
level. Nothing but mining Is carried on,
as the region Is not adapted -to either
stockralslng or farming. Four big ore
shlpplng mines are in operation nlghtand
day, however, the Leroy alone . shipping
1000 tons of ore daily to the smelter at
Northport, which is-on the American side.
The smelter at Trail, B. C, is also kept
busy by the mines at Rossland.
The climate of Rossland he briefly de
scribes as "six months' Summer and six
months' Winter." Snow begins falling in
October and lies on the ground until
prll. "Very little attention Is paid to "the
weather, however, and mining operations
are carried on through most of the vear.
Wages are good for, mechanics in Ross
land, carpenters being paid $3 50 per day
for' nine hours' work, and bricklayers get
$6, which makes building come pretty
hlgh, but If good men can be obtained
contractors do not object to paying good
wages. Local saw mills supply rough
lumber at $11 per 1000.

MINISTERIAL CONVENTION,
Evangelical Association Open Their
Services Today' Froiciamiae,
The ministerial convention of the Evan
gelical Association, Portland district of
tho Oregon conference, opened yesterday
afternoon in the First Evangelical
Church, East Sixth and Market streets.
The floral decorations for the occasion
were very beautiful. Across and above
the pulpit, a great arch extends, with
streamers of evergreens stretching from
it to the sides of the auditorium. Grace
ful vines and bright flowers adorn the
organ and chancel. , A song and prayer
service occupied the first half hour of the
session, when Rev. J. E. Smith, presiding
elder of the Portland. district, who acted
as chairman, announced the first speak
er, Rev. E. D. Hornschuch.
Mr. Hornschuch read an .able paper on
"Duties of a Pastor to His People." A
pastor's responsibilities were great, he
remarked, and required capability and
tact in the handling. He needed, above
all things, earthly and spiritual wisdom
and the power to look at things from a
practical point of view. To be success
ful, continued the speaker, a pastor
should love and sympathize with his peo
ple and have a deep interest in them.
Should indifference creep Into his work,
he Is a failure, for the people soon become
aware of It. and then their efforts cease.
A half-hearted minister could not expect
to have an enthusiastic, wide-awake con
gregation. His calls should be of fre
quent occurrence, and he should be con
cerned about their spiritual welfare and
know where they stand. In closing, Mr.
Hornschuch said:
, "The pastor's life- should be above re
proach, for what he does the people feel
safe In doing. His strength, time, mind
and talent are for the service of tho
Lord, and his end should be such that he
can look back over his past life and
say: 'I have done that which God set
for me to do.' "
Following the discussion which the pa
per called forth, Rev. F. M. Fisher pre
sented the subject, "Duty of the People
to Their Pastor." In the main, he said:
"There Is a mutual obligation between
the pastor and the people,, but some think
the obligation Is entirely on the part of
the pastor; that It Is his duty to do all
the work, while they reap the benefits.
But It Is simply a partnership, and the
obligation rests mutually bn all. It Is
the people's duty to pray for the spirit
uality and .progress of the pastor. A
prayerless people Is as bad as a prayer
less pastor. They must share his efforts
to Improve the church and keep It from
stagnation. Let them encourage him, for
he appreciates It and is the better for it
A faithful clerk Is praised and promoted,
but many think that It Is the right thing
to maintain a critical attitude toward the
pastor, lest he become self-satisfied. The
work to be accomplished Is. great, and
the pastor cannot bear the entire burden.
Co-operation should be the watchword of
tho congregation, and by their generous
aid they can make it possible for him
to say, 'These are my helpers; I can de
pend upon them.'
"Tho financial support of a pastor Is
another great unsolved question. Let him
be as free from all financial care as pos
sible, and ho will accomplish more work."
Rev. R. Pierce next Bpoke on the com
prehensive subject, "Justification, Regen
eration and Sanctlflcatlon Their Rela
tion to Each Other." He said that justi
fication, regeneration and sanctlflcatlon
formed the links in a great chain called
"Life," and that life was incomplete
without all three; they were so related
to each other as to be Inseparable. Con
tinuing, he described the only life that
can possibly enter heaven, and 'gave the
following definitions: "Justification Is
defined as an act of God, by which God
absolves a man from his sins and accepts
him as righteous on account of Christ's
atonement The next step In a Christian
life is regeneration. It Is a change of at
titude and not f state and 13 a work
wrought by God. It Is that moraL change
In man by which he Is saved from tho
love and practice of sin, and is enabled
with his own full choice and will to love
God and keep his commands. Sanctlflca
tlon, the third link, is the entire con
formity of heart and life to the will of
God, In which the heart Is cleansed
from evil affection and desires and b
comes the temple of the Holy Spirit."
Evening: Senolon.
The evening service was preceded with
a half hour of devotion and praise. Thore
-was a larger attendance than In the after
noon, and much Interest was aroused by
Rev. A. A. Englebort's paper, "Govern
ment of the Church," and also by Rev.
S. Copley, who spoke on "Doctrines of
