THE MORNING OREGONIAN, WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 23, 1903.
FAIR IN HIGH FAVOR
Enthusiasm Grows in Wash
ington. SEATTLE FAVORS BIG EXHIBIT
Secretary Henry EX Reed Finds Senti
ment in Paget Sound Metropolis
Is Strong: or an Adequate Ap
propriation by Iieslslatnre.
Secretary Henry E. Reed, of the Lewis
& Clark Exposition Company, returned
last night from Seattle, where he spent
three days in the interest of the 1905 Fair.
He found the people of ,the Washington
metropolis very friendly towards the big
Exposition, and favorable to an adequate
appropriation by the next Legislature for
a first-class state exhibit. Washington's
desire la to have an exhiibt second in size
only to Oregon's, and the best state build
ing on the Exposition grounds.
Speaking of his trip, Secretarj' Reed said
last night:
"Seattle fully realizes the value of the
Exposition as a means of bringing the
Oregon Country to the attention of the
"world, and will do all ih her power to
cause the state to make a fine exhibit
Secretary Melkle, of the Chamber of Com
merce, is an enthusiastic friend' of the
Exposition. The newspapers the Times
and the Post-Intelligencer gave me all the
space I needed to tell of the plan, scope
and purpose of the Exposition, and the
Post-Intelligencer has come out in an edi
torial Indorsement of the Fair, in which
Washington is urged to make an exhibit
second only to that of Oregon. Before
leaving Seattle I had a. two hours' confer
ence with ex-United States Senator John
L. Wilson, the owner of the Post-Intelligencer.
It was unnecessary to tell him
anything about the Exposition, as for over
ten years past he has closely studied the
histpry of early Western explorations and
settlements, and has accumulated a vast
store of Information regarding the poten
tialities of the entire West and the possi
bilities for commercial development in the
Pacific Ocean. Senator Wilson assured me
that whatever he could do personally, at
home or through friends in Congress,
through the Post-Intelligencer, and what
ever the State of Washington could do,
would be done cheerfully to the full meas
ure. Senator Wilson is a close personal
friend of President Roosevelt, and will be
sure to do all he can to help us obtain
recognition from Congress. I did riot meet
Colonel Blethen. owner of the Times, as he
was In the East attending the Associated
Press1 meeting. His friendship for the Ex
position is well known.
"Seattle has doubled in population in
six years, and is still growing rapidly.
She has steadied down a great deal, and
looks solid and substantial. Seattle keeps
hammering away for herself, and has
nothing but good to say of the other cities
In the Northwest, Her business men do
not underrate Portland in the slightest de
gree, but on the other hand give us our
full credit for stability, volume of busi
ness, financial strength, area of trade field
and rapid growth. They unhesitatingly
speak of Portland as a first-class city.
The Seattle Idea is that Oregon and Wash
ington .should stand together for the ad
vancement of the Northwest, and that
Portland. Seattle, Tacoma and Spokane,
as the chief cities of the region, should
unite and take the lead In the movement.
Seattle's motto is, 'Let nothing get away
from the Northwest that can be won for
It.' She goes after everything In sight
for herself, but if she can't land what she
is after she does not want to see it get
away from the Northwest. This is a
strong and broad working principle, and If
the commercial organizations of Portland,
Tacoma and Spokane will take it up they
will find Seattle ready and willing to go
any pace they may want to set.
"Washington's appropriation for the
Lewis and Clark Exposition will depend
largely upon what can be saved out of
the exhibit that will be sent to St. Louis.
The timber and mining portions will be
saved, and then an appropriation will be
made to cover the cost of necessary new
exhibits and of the state building. If $75,
M will be required we shall get that
amount, arid if $50,000 will do the business,
then It will be $50,000. The amount will
hardly be under $50,000. I urged an appro
priation of $100,000, of which one-half
should be devoted to exploiting Washing
ton at Portland in 1905."
FAIR AROUSES INTEREST
Mra. Sarah A. Ernnii Finds Hopeful
Signs in the East.
Mrs. Sarah A. Evans, -president of the
Portland Woman's Club and secretary of
the Sacajawea Statue Association, has re
turned to the .city after an absence of
several months. Mrs. Evans visited her
mother, Mrs. Virginia Shannon, and other
relatives at Bedford. Pa., and was enter
tained also in Chicago and Sioux City.
The town of Bedford, where Mrs. Evans
spent six weeks. Is one of the most pic
turesque and interesting places In Penn
sylvania, and is connected in quite a cu
rious way with the early history of Ore
gon. It was at Bedford Springs that Pres
ident Polk was spending the Summer
when he signed the commission for Gov
ernor Lane, Oregon's first Governor, and
tor Meek's commission as Marshal.
People now living in Bedford can recall
the time when the old stagecoach drew up
In front .of the inn and waited while the
Oregon trapper. Meek, went in to see the
President, with the paper' he had brought
for him to sign.
Besides the old inn. which is stfll stand
ing, Bedford boasts a "Washington's head
quarters" and an ancient chuchyard do
nated to Bedford settlement by William
Penn.
Mrs. Evans has the highest commenda
tion for the .Oregon Historical Society,
Whose work, she says. Is vastly superior
to that of organizations of the same sort
farther East
Because she is very much Interested in
Sacajawea, the Indian heroine of early
Oregon. Mrs. Evans talked a great deal
about her to the people whom she met
while -away, and everyone seemed to want
to know more about her and about the
coming Lewis and Clark fair. Many peo
ple gave Mrs. Evans their addresses and
asked her to send them information about
the Exposition and about the state.
"At, Sioux City I found more Interest in
the Lewis and Clark centennial than In
any place J visited." said Mrs. Evans. "I
was taken out to see the Floyd monument,
the rnemorlal which has been erected in
honor of the only man who lost his life
on the expedition. The members of the
Floyd Memorial Asociation are mourning
over the damage done to the monument
by a stroke of lighting. It will take prob
ably $1000 dollars to repair It. The Hon.
John Charles, president of the Floyd As
sociation, has contributed very generous
ly to the Sacajawea statue fund."
Mrs. Evans is one of the most enthusi
astic ahd loyal of Westerners, and while
ahe fmnd the majority of the strangers
she met well read and generally well In
formed, she was much displeased with a
conversation she had with a Chicago rail
way official, whose ideas on American his
tory were inexcusably vaguo.
"He said that the Lewis and Clark ex
pedition was Just one of 'Jefferson's blus
ters,' " said Mrs. Evans, in a horrified
tone, "that we already had the land by
the Louisiana Purchase, and that if wo
hadn't got it In this way Astor had al
ready secured it
"I told him he ought to read The Con
quest,' " Mrs. Evans continued, "and he
said The conquest of what?'' 'The Con--iest
of iaran'ada, 1 told him," and there
was an accent of hopeless sarcasm In Mrs;
Evans' quotation from her own conver
sation. In each of the places Mrs. Evans visited
sh6 was entertained in a delightful man
ner, especially at Sioux City, whero sev
eral charming luncheons were given in her
honor.
FREE MAIL THEIR CRY.
Peninsula Residents "Will Draw Up
Ne-rr Petition.
A campaign to secure free mail delivery
on the Peninsula lrom North Albina to
the city limits beyond Portsmouth has
been started, with promises of success.
Following the meeting of tho Haywood
Club, when a committee was appointed,
with Francis I. McKenna as chairman, to
take the matter up with the Congressional
delegation, steps were taken to get a
careful census of the entire district, so as
to show the number of people who will
be benefited. This is being undertaken
upon the suggestion of Postmaster F. A.
Bancroft.
The Postoffice Department turned down
tfie previous petition of University Park
and Portsmouth, because it considered
that the number of people had .been exag
gerated in the petition. G. H. Hemstock,
Postmaster at University Park, after con
sultation with Mr. Bancroft, started the
work of taking the census yesterday. Tho
census will show the number ot heads of
families, the number in each family, as
well as all other residents., A petition will
be forwarded to Senator Mitchell, who
will present it to the, Postoffice Depart
ment at Washington. The resolutions
passed at the mass meeting last week will
also be forwarded to each member of the
Congressional delegation, with a letter
from the committee, asking assistance In
getting free mall delivery'.

LAYING 31 ANY SEWERS.
Sunnyside Being: Provided "With a
Complete System. .
The system of sewers connecting .with
the 32-inch extension of the Sunnyside
conduit on East Yamhill street from East
Thirty-fifth street Is being completed. The
32-inch extension will be but one block
In length. Owing" to quicksand in the
bottom of the trench, a concrete founda
tion was necessary. From the end of the
large sewer, smaller pipes have been laid
on East Thirty-sixth to East Stark, and
on the intervening streets out to East
Thirty-eighth street. Thia system north
ward to East Stark street will cost $7000.
A contract for another chain of sewers
southward from East Yamhill on East
Thirty-sixth street to Main and on several
other streets to the city limits has been
let. This chain of sewers will cost $10,000.
East Side Notes.
Work has been started on the Scandina
vian church, on the corner of East Tenth
and East Grant streets, which will cost
$3000.
E. M. Emery, of Russellvllle, says that
hunters are violating the game law In
that neighborhood by shooting Chinese
pheasants. "There Is constant shooting
in this neighborhood," said Mr. Emery,
"but no effort has been made to arrest tho
violators of the law."
Tho Councllmen who were sued In Jus
tice S.eton's court by J. P. Burns for $200
damages sustained by an accident on East
Morrison street roadway filed a demurrer.
It was to have' been argued Monday, But
neither plaintiff nor defendants made their
appearance, and the hearing was post
poned. Edward Strak, who was shot in the foot
by A. J. Miller, of the Twelve-Mile Road
house, on the Base Line road, is still con
fined to the Good Samaritan Hospital.

THE AMERICAN IN TRADE.
An Interesting: Forecast by a Writer
Who Has Been Absent Tvro Years.
LONDON. Sept. 22. In the course of a
two-column article from an occasional
American correspondent the London Times
today printed an interesting review of
the development of business in the United
States. The writer, who "returned home
after an absence of nearly two years,"
took an extended trip through "half the
States of the Union." He says:
".Never were my countrymen so devoted
to business. The average man In the
United States is giving at least an hour
more per day to his business concerns than
he. did ten or twelve years ago."
The writer attributes this Increased en
ergy, nrst, to the "renewed national spirit"
and the Increased responsibilities result
ing from the Spanish-American War, and
second, to the sense of economy, "imbued
from the severe depression of 1893-1897,"
though he ,does not overlook the "display
of vulgar ostentation and almost criminal
waste by a small number of the rich, idle
people in the larger cities."
In minutely analyzing America's future
in the world of trade the writer says:
"In the matter of foreign trade, the
manufacturing American has great ambi
tions. He would like to trade with all the
world. He could not explain this aspira
tion, but he might fall back upon his be
lief in destiny, which is as strong in him as
it is in a Mohammedan soldier, whose death
in battle carries him Into paradise. The
American has come to have the strongest
faith In his gift or direction. He Is con
vinced that other people somehow are
losing that power and he is convinced that
it Is only a question tf time when the
financial center will be shifted to New
York or Chicago. He does not take into
account the fact he has not yet developed
a banking system flexible enough to adjust
Itself to a commercial crisis."
Trades' unionism, the writer declared,
is weaker In the United States than be
fore, and while tho wages In skilled trades
advance, those In unskilled trades de
cline. Replying to a question as to how long
the present period of prosperity Is likely
to continue, the writer says the general
feeling in the 'United States predicts It
will last until the next Presidential elec
tion is settled. He concludes with the
following remarks anent foreign trade:
"To my mind, nothing Is clearer than
that whatever chances many Americans
had, at one time, of getting slowly, but
surely, a paying foreign trade in manu
factured products have been lost for the
present
"First through Ignorance in not know
ing and not learning the conditions exist
ing In foreign countries.
"Second, by trying to make a place for
their products In crowded communities,
whose peoples have great experience and
ample capital. Instead of outside or neu
tral markets.
"Third, hy Inability to seek or take the
advice of those who knew or who had
the chance to know.
""Fourth, by the lnopportunlties of ef
fort and, as If these were not enough,
"Fifth, by rushing blindly Into combi
nations, many of which are purely spec
ulative, and then proceeding to adver
tise all over the world their intention to
take everything and leave nothing for
anybody else. This thundering in index
has not left much for the text to say or
threaten and little for Its authors to do.
"These, 'however, are mistakes that will
be overcome in time. When the homo de
mand declines, when prices and profits,
both In America and everywhere else have
come down to their natural level, when
half or three-fourths of the so-called
trusts have gone to the wall, like other
speculative companies, and finally, when
the great desire for publicity and adver
tising has given way to a careful study
of the conditions in the four quarters of
the globe, then will American competi
tion become profitable to itself without
being of necessity hurtful or dangerous
to the industries of other countries."

TWO KILLED BY EXPLOSION
WHILE BLASTING STUMPS TO CLEAR
SITE FOlt HOMES.
Bodies of John Simons and Edward
Weysrandt Thrown Far From
Scene of Explosion.
By ft premature blast of dynamite John
Simons and his brother-in-law, Edward
Weygahdt, were killed upon' the ground
which they were clearing for new homes
near Lents. The mangled remains were
found early yesterday morning. The ex
plosion occurred some time Monday af
ternoon. Simons and Weygandt left their homes
in Tabasco Addition Monday to work upon
the ground they had selected for dwell
ings. When they failed to return at 6
o'clock their wives became alarmed for
their safety, and at 9 o'clock asked several
neighbors to begin a search for them.
Though the searchers went over the
ground carefully. It was not until long af
ter midnight that the bodies were found.
The two men had been blasting5 out
stumps. It is supposed that the charge
of dynamite exploded before they had
reached a place of safety. The body- of
Simons was found under the stump upon
which they had been working. Wey
gandt's body lay 30 feet away, and had
been hurled through a barbed-wire fence.
An auger which had been used to bore
the powder hole Was found on top of the
log. Aside from this there was nothing
left in the vicinity with which the men
had been working. The terrific force of
the explosion had demolished everything
around. Chips from the log were thrown
In all directions.
Coroner Finley was notified by telephone
early In the morning and went Immedi
ately to Lents. The bodies had then been
discovered and In the darkness nothing
more could be done. The bodies' were
brought to the morgue after daylight As
a result of the investigation made at the
scene yesterday it was decided that no
inquest was necessary-
The wives of the dead men were not
told of the fatal accident until yesterday
morning. Simons had been married but
three months. Weygandt left a small
child besides his widow. 'His father and
brothers live In Tabasco Addition, while
he came to Portland recently from Hood
River.
A woman living in the vicinity heard an
explosion about 3 o'clock Monday after
noon, and it is probable that the fatal ac
cident occurred at that Ume. Apparently
no '. one else hear'd the noise, or If so
thought It merely an ordinary blast
Joseph E. ' Weygandt the 16-year-old
brother of Edward, would have gone with
the men to work Monday afternoon had he
returned from Portland in time. ' He
missed his car and was left behind, and
thus probably escaped a similar fate.
No arrangements have as yet been
made for the funerals, but they will prob
ably be held Friday at Lone Fir ceme
tery. DECLINES TO BE GUARDIAN

WHAT'S THE USE
To Keep a "Coffee Complexion."
A lady says: "Postum has helped my
complexion so much that my friends say
I am growing young again. My com
plexion used to be coffee colored, muddy
and yellow but It Is now clear and rosy
as when I was a girl. I was Induced to
try Postum by a friend who had suffered
Just as I had suffered from terrible indi
gestion, palpitation of the heart and sink
ing spells.
"After I had used Postum n week I was
so much better that I -was afraid It would
not last But now two years have passed
and I am a well woman. I owe It all to
leaving off coffee and drinking Postum in
Its place.
"I had -drank coffee all my life. I sus
pected that It was" the cause of my
trouble, but It was not until I actually
quit coffee and started to try Postum
that I became certain; then all my
troubles ceased and I am now well and
strong again." Name furnished by
