J 1 McCarthy, the man who officiat
ed as starter In the Portland meeting,

Portland day will naturally be the

to state Institutions, and the State Fair
is one of the most popular as well as
beneficial.
Secretary Welch, and other officials
. of the Portland Fair and Livestock As
sociation have arrived In Salem, and
Mr. Welch believes that the State Fair
will be more successful than ever, pro
vld'ng fair weather Is encountered. At
pres-nt the outlook for fair weather Is
not altogether bright, though It Is be
lieved that the slight chill and the
threatening rains will not extend down
te valley.
Water Supply Improved.
Visitors to the fair need have
hi fear of the quality of the wa
ter in the city, according to a state
ment Just given out by City Health
ffti er Miles, In which he dcclarea that
water tests received by him show that
the supply here Is absolutely pure. This
follows the recent installation of a
rondtitt from the euipply station in the
river to the pumping; plant. As the
ondult Is the best obtainable it Is
"ertaln that the old danger ao often
rxperienced here of leaks in the intake
pipe from the sewer Is overcome, and
now. It Is said, the water supply la as
pure as any that may be obtained
"rom the best filtration plant.
streetcar Service (ixxl.
Streetcar service to the fair grounds
will be better than ever before. Now
there Is a competing line to the local
vstem of the Portland Railway. Light
Power Company In the Portland. Ku
aene & Kastern. which operates along
Tenter and Summer street directly to
the grounds. Three new ram nave
oeen received expressly for the pur
pose of handling State Fair traffic,
and. with the two lines and more than
in automobiles pressed Into service,
discomfort in reaching the grounds will
re reduced to a minimum.
Correct Change Required.
Manager Meredith is satisfied that
the fair thhi year will be greater In
point of attendance and greater In
features than ever before, and Salem
people who have gone to the fair
grounds the past day or two agree with
him. One of the changes will be In
the new gates, which will require all
visitors to tarry the proper change, as
the gates will operate on the turnstile
and coin-ln-the-slot principle.
