FESTIVAL VISITORS 30,000
Street Railway Travel Indicates At
tendance lower Than 19 tl.
Fifturss compiled yesterday by traf
fic officials of the Portland Railway.
UkM and Power Company prove the
estimate made by The Oregonlan last
week tbat the number of visitors wbo
were in Portland for the Rom Festi
val was nearly 10.000.
This is not as many aa were here
last year.. The rain alons is held re
sponsible for the decreased at
tendance.. The average number of pas
sengers hauled daily was 38S.6J4. The
normal passenger haul is about 2(5.000
dally. The lnorease on account of Fes
tival week therefore ta approximately
X3Aju tlv The average number of
transfers used is SO per cent of the
total haul, leaving the net increase on
account of Festival week 84.000. There
is no way at arriving at a conclusion
of what portion of this increase was
due to the presence of the visitors.
Traffic men say that one-third of the
total la a fair estimate. This would
justify the conclusion tbat the esti
mate of 10.000 is correct.
The total number of passenger hauls
last week was J.308.103. Rose Festi
val week. 1911. It was J. 220.64. Last
year the average of transfers used was
but 25 per cent, however.

OREGON FRUIT IN DEMAND
Canadian Territory Furnishes Mar-
ket, Saya A. A. Morse.
"Canadians are not only eager for
Oregon and Washington fruits but
they are willing to pay the cost of
these products and Insist upon getting
the very best quality," said A. D.
Morse, special representative of the
traffic department of the 0.-W. R. A
N yesterday on his return from a
six weeks' tour of British Columbia
and Canadian territory, . extending
from Cranbrook. B. C to Winnipeg,
Manitoba. "These people are not only
satisfied with the fruit products of
the Pacific Northwest but this is the
section to which they .must look for
their fruit supply.". i
I Mr. Morse reports .; excellent pros
pects ' for an increased business for
the Oregon horticulturists this year In
supplying the Canadian market.:' An
exceptionally prolific grain crop last
year and prospects for a heavy yield of
all cereals this year, reports Mr. Morse,
has produced prosperous conditions
among the Canadians, wbo do not com
plain of the high price they are re
quired to pay for fruits because of
the heavy duty on these products
crossing the line.
When in Calgary on the 13th inst,
Mr. Morse says Hood River strawber
ries were plentiful in the markets at
20 cents a box.
The type of letters In early manuscripts
was the same as that of those used oo the
earlier metal plates and wax tablets. All
letters were capitals. Minuscule, or small
letterlnr. as opposed to the majuscule, was
invented in the seventh eeacury.
