THE MORNING OREGON! AN, TH U KSDAY, UUTU15JSK FAIR GAINING FAVOR Change of -Sentiment on Part of Salem People, ADVANTAGES APPEAL TO THEM Appropriation of $500,000 Appeared Extravagant at First, lint It Is Saw Seen In a. Different Light. SAIiEil, Oct 29. (Special.) There 13 quite a noticeable change In the ex pression of sentiment regarding the appropriation for the Lewis and Clark Centennial. "When the managers of the enterprise announced the amount they thought the state should appropri ate, there were many who declared it too much. Since people have had time to think It over and to consider the bene fits that will be derived from the expendi ture of the sum f money asked for $300.000 there has been heard very little adverse comment, .and practltally none from leading business men. Frank T. "VVrlghtman, who has as large an acquaint ance throughout this county as any one in this city, says that he la satisfied the people will approve the appropriation of the rum named, and that they will not ask to have the appropriation submitted to a vote. He bases his opinion upon what he hears from the people in different parts of the county. He says that when $500,000 was lirst named the people lookexl only at the amount of It, and did not stop to think of the advantages that it would bring. Many of them were, on the spur of the moment, opposed to so large an appropriation, and if the matter had been submitted to them without their having time to consider it in all its bearings, a good many, though much less than half, would have voted agalnnt It Speaking on this subject, Mr. "Wrightman said: "The people op this part of the state have come to realize that if Oregon is to keep up with the rest of the Coast country we must be doing something and not be afraid to spend a little money in advertising. They have seen other Coast states make rapid progress through liberal advertis ing and they are ready to try a little of the same plan themselves! The Lewis and Clark Centennial offers the best kind of an opportunity for advertising the re sources of this state, and the people will enter heartily into the project and make it a success. Everybody agrees that if we have a Fair It should be a big one and give the people who ccme here a good opinion of the country. We are going to have the Fair, and it Is going to be a hig one. It will be the moft profitable In vestment this state has ever made, for it will be the means of bringing many peo ple here, and increasing our trade with other parts of this country and other countries. You can rest assured that the people will back up the Fair. "You will notice that the few who say. anything against the Fair project are not the young men who have an interest in the future of the state, but are prlnclpally men who pay very little, If any, taxes, or men who have already made their money iand aro now out of 'business and not di rectly interested in the development of tne state. The young men whose future is Identified with that of this section of the .country arc in favor of the Fair and want -to see it made a success." Another resident of this county re marked a few days ago that one of the best f eatures of the Fair project is . that not a doilar of the appropriation will go outside of. the 6tate, while it will bring many thousands of dollars here from other states "When the Fair is over, the state will be richer than It was before, for though some money will be expended through, the state treasury, the amount of money In circulation will be Increased, the amount of taxable property will bo much larger, and fnere will be more peo ple here to help build up our industries end help bear the burdens of state.

LIQUOR DEALERS MAY RETALIATE. Can Prefer Charges Against Minors for Misrepresenting Their Age. SALEM. Or.. Oct 29. (Special.) While the statute against selling liquor to minors sometimes works a hardship on saloon keepers, there Is another statute that af fords the liquor dealer some degree of protection. The first statute mentioned makes it a misdemeanor to sell liquor to a minor, and the courts have held that It is no defense that the saloon-keeper was told by the purchaser that the latter was of age. The second statute referred to Is an act of lbui, making It a criminal of fense for a minor to 'misrepresent his- age In order to secure liquor. In the- Linn County cuse decided last Monday, the saloon-keeper, James Gully, testified that he asked the boy, Zimmerman, whether he was of age, and the latter answered that he was. The evidence showed, however, that he was in fact only 19. The saloon keeper was convicted, and must pay a fine of $30. His only recourse in the matter Is to prefer a charge against the boy, who deceived him, and secure his conviction. When minors who deceive saloon-keepers In order to get liquor find that they are likely to be punished for their deception, they will not often misrepresent their age. It is learned that it has been the custom of Circuit Judges, In cases of this kind, to instruct Juries that liquor dealers cannot set up as a defense that they were de ceived as ttf the age of the minor. The question has never come up In the Su preme Court before, probably for the rea son that when a saloon-keeper is convicted he usually pays his fine without appealing. CHINESE ASK FOR AID. People in Drouth-Stricken District Appeal to Benevolent Society. VICTORIA, B. C. Oct 29. The Chinese Benevolent Society of this city has .re ceived cablegrams from S.outh China ask ing for assistance for the famine-stricken people. The crop has failed in five largely populated districts as a result of drouth, which has lasted five months. The richer Chinese, taking advantage of the famine, have cornered the rice supply, and have raised the price to 4 cents per pound. The Chinese Benevolent Society has, therefore, cabled to their over-sea branches asking for money, which will be used In the pur chase of rice in Slam and the Straits Settlements for sale at a rate which the poor will be able to meet About .52000 has already been collected In Victoria, Nanalmo, Vancouver and New Westminster. ENGINE- DITCHED AT ASHLAND. Southern Pnclflc Helper " Leaves Track While Rounding Curve. ASHLAND, Or., Oct,. 29. The Southern Pacific Company's helper engine No. 2195 was ditched just outside the city limits at 10:35 o'clock this morning, and lies badly wrecked across the tracks. Under charge of Jack Silsby, engineer, and Carl Pratt, fireman, it hal started on Its run to Medford to assist the southbound pas senger train to Ashland. When rounding a sharp curve the tender Jumped the track and the engine went over on its side. Engineer Silsby jumped from the cab and his back was badly injured, and Fireman Pratt's left foot was cut by his fall. A temporary track will have to be built around the wreck, which will only delay traffic a few hours. An engine wrecking crew from Portland will be dispatched to restore the wrecked engine. Notes From Astoria. ASTORIA, Or., Oct 29. (Special.) Mas ter Fish Warden Van Dusen has returned from a 10 days' trip to the state salmon hatchery on the Grand Ronde River, In Wallowa County. He found that Super intendent Allen had 3,000,000 young chinook fry hatched out, and that they were In excellent condition. This hatchery has been much Interfered with by great quan tities of moss coming down the river, and if It had not been for this the outyut of the hatchery would have been greaier. It is hpped, however, that by another year arrangements may be made whereby the moss may be avoided. The sockeye sal mon are now running there in large num bers, and eggs from them will bo secured next Last year thin hatchery turned out 7,000,000 'young sockeyes. and at least as many will be secured this Fall. Judging from present indications, the preparations to handle next year's catch of salmon will be greater than during the past season. In addition to the canneries already established, John Kieman is erect ing one at Ilwaco, and now Seufeit Bros., of The Dalles, are looking for a $ite, some where around the mouth of the Columbia, for a cannery which they desire to have ready for operation by the opening of next Beason. Seufert Bros, were not very Suc cessful last season at their cannery on tne 'Upper Columbia, and they are beginning to realize that, to continue In the business, they must be in a position to handle the fish as they enter the river,' for the gear is now 'so plentiful in the lower river that fqw fish can- escape It and reach the wheels, except during short periods, and these rarely happen, except late in the season, when the commercial value of the fish is small. The mystery surrounding the finding of a sailboat stranded in Gray's Bay yester day by the steamer Eclipse has been cleared up. A collector of Junk had been up Deep River, and while returning after dark he lost his bearings, and ran on a sand spit Hl3 boat soon filled and he was compelled to remain In it for an hour or more, until he was picked up by a pass ing fishboat The preliminary hearing of Captain E.

At the assembly this morning Professor Luella Clay Carson ad dressed the students on "The Pleasures and Impression of a Trip to England." Professor Carson spent the past Summer in England, and was In London at the time of the coronation. In her address this morning she reviewed in detail some of the striking characteristics of England's life, scenery and architecture, and the speech, though informal, was very Inter esting.

ASK FOR HOP INSPECTOR GROWERS AROUSED BY RECENT CONTRACT DECISION. Declared' It Is Another Argument for Inspector Other State Inter ests Favored, Why Not Hops? SALEM, Oct 29. (Special.) The much discussed decision rendered by Judge1 Burnett regarding the legal status 0 tho ordinary hop contract has furnished one more argument for the passage of an act providing for a State Hop Inspector. The Oregon Hopgrowers' Association at its last annual meeting declared In favor of such a law, and the grbwers generally are desirous of seeing It enacted. They argue that the state maintains a Board of Horticulture, with five members, a Fish Commission, a Food and Palry Commis sion, a State Veterinarian, a Game Ward eni a State Biologist and tha$ the coun- WILLIAM H. CLARK COUNTY AUDITOR, WHO DIED OCTOBER 27, 1002. ties employ stock Inspectors In pursuance of law, and there is no reason why the hopgrowing Industry should not have the same fostering care of the state. They point to tho growing lmportarico of t this industry, as indicated by the Increasing acreage, while the acreage 13 decreasing in some of the old "hopgrowing districts. They insist that the Industry which dis tributes eo large a sum of money among the people aa does the hopgrowing indus try Is deserving of such aid as legisla tion can give it The decision rendered by Judge Burnett has put an entirely new phase upon the hop contracting business, for hereafter all contracts, to be binding, must have two sides. Heretofore tho contracts were bo worded as to leave the dealer the solo Judgo of the quality of the hops, and ho could accept them or reject them, as he saw fit, and, according to the lan guage of the agreement the grower had no recourse. But hereafter the dealers must agree to take the hops it they are of the specified quality, and the buyer will not be the sole judge of the qual ity. One of the objects to be gained by the election or appointment of a hop Inspector was to have a -disinterested ex pert on hops who could settle disputes between buyers and growers. Whether hops are of a certain quality Is largely a matter of opinion, and tho dealers are almost the only experts on that subject The growers have felt that they were at a disadvantage in controversies over the quality of hops, and they want a com petent man employed by the state and paid a sufficient salary so that he will not bo interested either as a dealer or grower, whose duty it shall be to determine the quality of hops where any question arises. 'In a year like the present, when the price of hops has gone up, there is no dispute about the quality, but the grow ers think they have not always had a fair deal when tho price has gone down and the dealers would lose money by tak ing the hops. Other duties to be assigned to the hop inspector would be the Investigation of all matters relating to hop culture which may be of interest and value to tho growers, the compilation of hop statis tics, and the dls3cminat!on of Informa tion calculated to build up this .industry.. While some growers are thoroughly in formed upon hop culture, there are many who know as little of the best methods In hop culture as some of tho fruitgrowers do of the best methods In horticulture. By experiments and tests much could be learned that would be of use to all the growers, but 3lnce few of them have the time or facilities for conducting a osrles of experiments, the growing and curing of hops Is conducted in pretty much the same way from year to year. The sub ject of sprays for hop lice, the discovery of the cause f "missing hills," and other similar matters will furnish a hop commissioner plenty -of work. The growers have been many times informed that one trouble with the Oregon hop is that there Is not sufficient care taken In the picking and curing of the hops. That this is true is attributable to Ignorance of the grower as much as to anything else, and they believe that bulletins on hop culture and curing should be pre pared by a competent person the same as in the case of horticultural bulletins and circulars. The growers also believe that they should be kept Informed, through authoritative sources, of the statistical situation of the hop 'industry, for varia tion in supply has more influence upon the price of hops than upon any other agricultural product Opinions differ as to the manner of se lecting a hop inspector, but the difference Is of , minor importance. Some of the growers, who have expressed themselves upon the subject advocate the election of a hop Inspector by popular vote, while others think the better way would be to have the new official appointed by the Governor. Those who prefer the elec tion plan cite the election of the Food and Dairy Commissioner as a precedent, and, on the other hand, it is remarked that the horticultural commissioners are appointed -by he Governor. The principal point with the growers is to secure the appointment or election of a man who is entirely disinterested either aa a grower or a dealer, No one has figured on the cost of main taining the new office. The state spends $4500 per year to maintain a Horticul tural Commission, $3000 per year for a ""Domestic Animal Commission, $3200 for a Fish arden and deputies, $1200 fpr a Game Warden and deputies, $3400 for a Food and Dairy 'Commissioner and dep uties. The growers want 'the hop in spector paid enough to make him Inde pendent of hopgrowing or buying, and will probably think the state can afford os much for the advancement of its hop Industry as for the protection of Its wild game. , STEEL TRUST: ENJOINED. Court Restrains It From Retiring Stock to Issue Bonds. NEWARK. N". J.Tct. 29. Vice-Chan-cellor Emery today filed his decision in the sujt of J: Aspinwall Hodge and others to prevent the United States Steel Corpora tion from retiring. $200.0Cft,OGO of preferred stock and issuing $250,000,000 in bonds. In his decision the Vice-Chancellor says: "I will advise that a preliminary Injunc tion be granted restraining the Issue of bonds under tho r'esolutlpn upon the terms that if the defendant desires to appeal, the complainant shall consent that tljo cause .be set down for hearing at the next term of the Court of Errors and Appeals." The resolution referred to by the Vice Chancollor was adopted by the directors of the United States Steel Corporation, and ordered the retirement of the preferred stock. Vice-Chancellor Emery decides that the. meeting of the directors at which the resolution was adopted was premature ly called, and that the retirement of the slock under the resolution must, therefore be enjoined. The decision of the Vice- BREWSTER Chancellor agrees with the decision of the Court of Errors and Appeals in the mer ger case on all other points. ' Receivers for Lumber Company. NEW YORK, Oct. 29. Waterman A. Tnft, Edward Hawthorne and Ben A.

The chairman of Lloyd & Lloyd admitted that negotiations with the view of an amalgamation with Stewart & Menzies were going on, but he denied that they had yet been completed. OBSERVATIONS IN ORIENT JenkR Reports on Rule of English and Holland Possessions. WASHINGTON, Oct 29. The report made by Professor Jeremiah Jenks, of Cornell University, on his observations in the English and" Holland possessions in the Orient was made public today by the War Department Professor Jenks visited those dependencies at the Instance of the Bureau of Insular Affairs, for the purpose of making a study of methods of adminis tration with a view to recommendation for our own government of the Philip pines. The report is a book in volume, and deals with currency, labor, taxation and police regulations. Professor Jenks finds that notwithstanding considerable progress hao been made In the depend encies during the recent decades, In no country visited lias much been done look ing to the establishment of self-government. sNowhere in" the dependencies of England. Holland or France In the Orient has there been granted, he srrys, so great a measure of self-government as the United States already has given to the Philippines. Professor Jenks, with re spect to a currency system for the Philip pines, Inclines to the recommendation of a fixed rate c-f exchange with gold be tween the Islands and the United States. This Is In accord wfh the suggestion of tho Philippine Commission. The special reasons given are that if sil ver continues to depreciate, those who gain from its depreciation will be the ex porting houses, chiefly English and Ger man, although part American, while the native Filipinos, who grow hemp, sugar, tobacco, etc., on their plantations, wiM be the loseTs. He believes, however, that the use of silver should be encouraged as much as possible. A recommendation is made that em ployers of labor be permitted to Introduce Chinese laborers in the Philippines under contract for a period of not over three years in each Individual Instance. The em ploye, it is suggested, should give bonds for tho proper care of the Chinese. Trio longest chapter In the book, that on taxation and land administration, lays cepeclal stress on the question of land tenure. Following the almost universal custom of Oriental countries, it is suggest ed that It would be best for tho Govern ment to retain the title and to lease the lands for somewhat long periods, 30 years or so, at a fixed rental, reserving the right to revise the terms of rent at the end of the period named. In order to encourage the Investment of capital In the development of the agricul tural resources of the Islands, It i3 sug gested that especially favorable terms, with low rentals, should be made for a time to large investors. In connection with land administration, it Is recommended that some provision be made for loans to small landholders, particularly for the pur chase of cattle, agricultural tools, etc. Celebration Postponed.

John Lawrence Sullivan took charge, voluntarily, of the proceedings In Part VI of tho Supreme Court yesterday morning, says the New York Sun. Mr. Sullivan was present with Intent to be a wltncns .for his friend, Daniel F. Dwyer, also a prizefighter, who had brought suit against the Metropolitan Street Railway Company for damages. The defense was that on the day after Christmas, 1899, Mr. Dwyer himself and not the railroad was respon sible for an injury he received by falling off a car; also that Mr. Dwyer was and had been in the company of Mr. Sullivan for some time. The case was tried before Justice Gle gerieh. Mr. Sullivan at first was content with a seat at the back of the courtroom on the spectators' benches. He listened to tho questions asked of the first witness with growing disgust. "Nutty, plum nutty," he observed gen ially to .a thin and precise-looking woman of years who happened to be occupying the neat beside him. She seemed sur prised. "I say them guys are nutty, madam," he said in an explanatory tone. The" lady roso and moved to the other end of the courtroom. Mr. Sullivan looked after her and passed his hand uncertainly over his broad brow. He seemed to feel hurtj "They're all nutty," he explained to everybody in his neighborhood. Nobody replied. " "The whole Joint Is on the bug," re marked Mr. Sullivan to himself. He ad journed solemnly to the corridor and came back wiping his mouth with the back of his hand and seeming visibly encouraged. Th'ii time'he went inside the rail and took a seat near Mr. Dwyer's lawyers. Mr. Dwyer was called to the stand. Mr. Dwyer explained very painstakingly how he fell off the car, and said that as a result of the fall he was prevented from carrying out a contract he had with Sul livan to be his sparring partner at a thousand dollars a week. But the coun sel for the railroad company treated Mr. Dwyer with levity and. cast reflections up ANNUAL SALE, CSreafest in the Wrld A MILLION AMERICAN NURSING- MOTHERS lie op them selves and thoir babies in splendid health, with GASOARETS Candy Cathartic.
