SPOKANE FAIR
DRAWS BIG CR01
Over 110,000 People Attend
Week's Attractions in
Inland City.
BREAKS FORMER RECORDS
Drawn Larger Attendance Than
Oregon State Fair and Country
Club Show Combined More
Entertainment Offered.
BT WILL. l. MAC RAC.
Perfectly manag-ed and with splendid
w.atb.r In Its favor, the Spokane In
terstate Fair closed Saturday nlg-ht,
and It la estimated that during the
week of the Fair between 110,000 and
115. COO persona paid admissions at the
rate. This Is a great deal larger than
the week's attendance at the Oregon
Etate Fair, held at 8alm this year, and
In stranire contract with the attendance
at the tine stock show and harness
races Riven by the Country Club at
Portland. The Spokane Interstate Fair
has been admirably handled for sev
eral years by men who knew that It
was necessary to give the public some
thing else besides a few harness races
and fat stock to look at, and by paying
as much attention to the class of
amusements offered to the public a
they did to having fine harness and
running races, they have each year
swelled the attendance to the Fair, un
til this year they have broken all pre
vious records.
To the casual observer, the fact that
Spokane could send 110.000 people In
one week to its Fair, while Portland
could send only between 30.00 and 23.100
(paid admissions) to the line show given
bv the Country Club, and Oregon could
only send . to the State Fair at Salem,
these figures will undoubtedly be sur
prising. The fact that so many people
saw the Fair at Spokane can be easily
accounted for. First, in addition to
catering to both ends of the racing
fame, that of harness and running
races, the Fpokane Fair management
has placed on the grounds only high
class amusements, a thing that the
Oregon Fair management haa rather
neglected until this year. It was these
varied amusements that took the
crouds Inside the Fair gates, and kept
them coming bark, both afternoon and
night, during the week. Another thing
that awelled the crowds Is the fact that
Spokane Is a city of between 80.000 and
0.000, and those who live in the city
and cannot attend the Fair In the af
ternoons turn out to see the amuse
ments at night.
Spokane Shows Enthusiasm.
The Oregon State Fair has no such
rlty to draw Its daily sttendance from,
and the business men of Salem and the
Salem public In general have never
awakened to the realization that the
State Fair Is one of the biggest annual
events In the etate. It brings Into
Salem many thousands of dollars an
nually, and yet the Indifference
shown bv the Salem business men
la notorious. At Ppokane. every
body works and works hard for the
success of the InteTetate Fair. Its
business men are as enthusiastic as
the farmers and the Fair management,
and they Join In making the Fair what
it really stands for. the biggest hap
pening In the state. The city tak -s on
a carnival appearance, decorations are
everywhere, while at Salem there has
been State Fair after State Fair with
hardly a strip of bunting, or a banner
of welcome to announce that the Oregon
State Fair was on. Uttle or nothing
Is done to provide for the people who
go there to attend the Fair, and Port
land has. at any rate during the past
Ave years, displayed more interest in
the line livestock exhibit and the races
than do the people of Salem.
Salem wakes tip one day a week dur
ing the Fair, and they turn out to the
Fair Grounds, not so much because
they are Interested, but because they
want to make a showing against the
attendance on Portland day. Lrfist year
the only evidence that Salem gave that
the State Fair wm on was the crowd
on the street and a banner that the
street railroad company hung to guide
the people to the streetcars. Not a
window In any of the business houses
contained a card of notice about the
Fair. Kven the hotels were so indiffer
ent that, unless rooms were engaged
weeks In advance. no attempt was
made to care for the visiting public,
and several hundred Portland people
who would have remained at the Fair
for several days, were forced to return
home because thev could not find ac
commodations, and because, the hotel
people r.-fi?sed to take the trouble to
list rooms to which they could send the
overflow. At one of the hotels last
year one of Oregrn s l!stlnguls:ed
statesmen was told aftc- he had regis
tered that "he would have to take his
chsn.es with the reot" In getting; a
room.
Oregon Fair Ha Advantage.
When It comes to the livestock ex
hibit ar.d the high-class nu-ins. the
Oregon State Fair show Is larger than
that at Spokane, and the fields In the
harness races ate a great deal larger.
Another great advantage that the Ore
gon State Fair has Is exceptionally
fast mile track at Sini. At Spokane
the track Is only half n mile, and the
opportunities for lowering records, or
giving horars sensational niaiks. is,
rractl-ally out of the question. Then,
too, at Spokane the management gives
several hig stak.s for running events,
and this -ir. in sT'ite of the fait that
th?ra was no betting at Spokane, some
very high-class thoroughbreds raced In
the stake cv.-nts. lhrte was a time
whin the Oregon State Fair manage
ment allowed the runners to shaie hon
or l;l. the harn-s horses. j.it for
some unknown reason, they have seen
lit to pass up the tiioroiic.ibreds almost
entirely. This s.-.me mistake was made,
by the management of the ' Country
Club. If Spokane can give stakes for
the owners of thoroughbreds, as well
as for pacers and fetters, there Is no
reason why the Oregon State Fair man
agement and the officials of the Coun
try Club cannot do the same.
There Is no use trying to deny It, the
thoroughbred has Jast as firm a hold
on the public as either pacers or trot
ters and. while a mixed meeting is not
the most desirable. It will attract the
public. The fact that the attendance
at the races at Salem fell below that of
Spokane, and that the attendance at
the Country Club livestock show and
taces was so small, was not due. as'
some would have It believed, to the
absence of betting. For two years now
thera haa been no bookmaklng at the
Oregon state Fair, and yet the attend
ance has Increased each year. Petting,
or the absenc- of betting. was not
what kept people away It was simply
because, beyond the livestock and the
races, there waa nothing to attract the
people. This was especially so of the
Country Club. This waa not the fault
of the management. They simply did
not have time to put In other attrac
tions, and It was a truly wonderful bit
of work to get the track In a splendid
condition and to have the plant in rac
ing shape In the short time that they
had.
State Fair Needs Amusements.
The daily and nightly amusement
programme furnished by the Spokane
management was what took the people
to the grounds, and the entertainment
they enjoyed once Inside the gate,
brought them back each day. After
spending one day at the Oregon State
Fair, one could see everything that Is
really worth seeing. What haa saved the
Fair haa been lta very high-class harness
race's. This waa made possible by
hanging up purses that horsemen could
afford to stay at home and race for.
Instead of going over the grand circuit.
At Spokane, the night programme was
as carefully selected as that given dur
ing the day. while at Salem there never
was much to attract the public back to
the grounds beyond a few speakers or
a concert or two. There were no pony
races to attract the attention of the
children, no race feature such aa they
give each year at Spokane. The secret
Is that at Spokane Vie management
gives the public what It wants in the
way of amusements, and the people in
turn make good by spending their
money at the gate.
Next year, with things better in
hand, the Oregon State Fair manage
ment will give the people what they
want, The grounds will be In better
condition and the facilities for reaching
the track will be vastly Improved, and
perhaps the Oregon State Fair manage
ment will take a. lesson from Spokane's

murderer, and Dr. Dix was sent for to
car for the bleeding and bruised victim.
The train has been sidetracked here for
the past hour, and may remain until the
porter is brought in, as it is thought he is
li. hiding somewhere in the town and will
probably try to make his escape by the

here late this evening.
There is great excitement here and talk
of lynching the "nigger" by the men on
the train if he Is caught. The porter's

20, and his father conducts a barbershop.

SOUTH BEND, Wash., Oct. 11. (Spe
cial.) George B. Clark, expert account
ant, who has been at work on the county
records since last April, has made his
final report to the County Commissioners.
In his first report, made several weeks
ago, Mr. Clark dealt entirely with offi
cial malfeasance but this last Instal
ment deals solely with alleged frauds
committed In the building of the South
Bend-Willapa road.
Mr. Clark first shows that the total
cost of the road, which was generally
believed to have been in the neighbor
hood of J30.000, was J40.908.97. He then
goes on to show that the contract was
not awarded to the lowest bidder, as
the law provides; that the advertising for
bids, letting of contracts and. in fact,
nearly the entire matter of building the
road was left entirely In the hands of
W. R. Gray, Commissioner for the Third
district. He further states that the re
survey made by County Engineer H. A.
Gibbs shows that the entire cost of
grading the road from South Bend to
Wtllapa should have been J2720.42, where

The County Commissioners have
leased the poor farm, situated on the

dehey pays the county 150 per year
rental for the farm, and cares for the
Inmates, providing board and clothing,
for $10 per month each. As a rule, there
arc about an average of 10 Inmates at
the place. The county bought the

paid the BTira of J6474.3S, an over pay
ment of 13753.93. Many other alleged Ir
regularities and Illegal transactions tn
connection with this road were brought
to light.
In Clark's first report he called atten
tion to. the Irregular allowance of a bill
presented by the Kneppton Mills for lum
ber. C. H. Callender, who was one of
the Commissioners at that time, was
also manager of the Knappton Mills and
presented the bill. Investigation has since
brought to light the fact that the bill
as paid was J769.90 in excess of the
amount charged on the books of the
Knappton Mills. Mr. Callender has sent
in his check to cover the amount, de
nominating it a "rebate."
Mr. Clark was also employed by the
city of South Bend to expert the city's
books. No official irregularities were
found to have occurred during recent
years but the report shows that In 1893,
the City Treasurer charged and was paid
the sum of I1S0O as 1 per cent com
mission on the Issuing of 160.000 in bonds.
Under the laws then existing the Treas
urer was entitled 'to 1 per cent on actual
receipts and disbursements but, as ths
above was simply a refunding proposi
tion, no money passed and the payment
of the commission, according to Mr.
Clark, was without warrant of law. Tha
Treasurer tlso had 1900 of the city
money deposited In the First National
Bank, which failed. The city cancelled
the Treasurer's indebtedness in that sum.
which was also without warrant of law,
says the report, as the Treasurer and
his bondsnjen were legally holden for
thRt amount.
Mr. Clark reports the books of the city
In bad condition and shows carelessness
and even recklessness in their keeping.
He has ordered new records and ' will
open up a new set of books for the city
