PORTLAND, Aug. 4. (To the Editor ) I notice in this morning's paper that Mr. R. Buctlkofer protests against the street far on Sixth street and questions the .right of the Council to give the assocla tlpn control of the highway. I am not acquainted with Mr. Buetlkofer, and find in the directory only one R. Buetlkofer, who is a real estate agent on Washing ton street, so his plea for the merchants of Sixth street Is not personal, but as either a voluntary or solicited special pleader. Permit me to say that when the fair was contemplated the first citizens consulted and the first subscribers to tho fund and, in proportion, the most liberal subscribers were tho merchants along Sixth street, the line of tho fair grounds. Their contributions were made with the distinct understanding that the fair was to bo held on Sixth street, and when later It was proposed to change to the Park blocks, a majority of theso subscribers stated that they would withdraw their subscriptions if this was done. I do not think that any citizen will be heard to complain of temporary inconvenience when the great good that this" fair will do for Portland and all its Interests Is demonstrated, as It effectually will be, and certainly the inconvenience will oo mode as slight aa possible-by the man agers. E. W. ROWE. President " The Oregonlan understands that Mr. "Buetlkofer is In business on Sixth street or his letter would not have been printed. Holds Court at the Knees. Chicago Times-Herald. It is not generally known that under an old act, which la said to have it origin In the theft of a watch from the person of William IV at Ascot races, the Chief Magistrate of Bow street has to attend at every race meeting there com bining business with pleasure, perhaps. The late Sir John Bridge was very par tlGular In this rcspedt. ?o Ascot meet ing was complete without him. He held his court during the Intervals between the Tates,1- and many a pickpocket who has been dealt with by him at Bow street w"as surprised when the same magistrate awarded him six months' hard labor at .Ascot. THEY SWORE OFFSPRING AD THE BABY HOME 15 ENRICHED TO THE AMOUNT OF ?30. Fall From Grace of Six Incurahlea Glvea a "Worthy Charity a Mach- Xeeded, Donation. Because six Portland men swore off smoking under a cash penalty and then broke their "swear," tho Baby Home Is winner $30. How it all happened is thus told: Portland, Aug. 1. Treasurer of the Port land Baby Home Dear Madam: It Is an article of faith in many poetic creeds that the brightest stars that gem the heavens are women's good intentions and resolutions, crystallized in everlasting light However this may be, they cer tainly take shape In many of earth's noblest charities and most radiant bene factions. With men, and their aspirations and resolves for betterment, the case is wholly different High authority declares that a sultry locality, whose name of four let ters begins with an "h" and ends with an "1" Is "paved with good Intentions,'" or good resolutions of the masculine va riety "gone wrong." A half dozen of us Just now have on haad a small assortment of these Plu tonian paving-stones, that we desire, if possible to transmute, by the divine alchemy of feminine benevolence, into something better Into tinsel asteroids. If unfit for stars. Messrs. Ralph Moody, Ralph Wilbur, John Wilcox, William H. Hurlburt and James Morris and myself recently re solved, Individually and collectively, to quit smoking for 30 days, with an agree ment that any one who failed to "live up to the blue-edged china" of his resolu tions should "ante" I mean contribute $5 to the deserving Institution of which you are the esteemed and honored purse bearer. Our sixfold good resolutions were made In simple good faith, with slxtuple good intentions but we are all only men and it is therefore simply "the expected that has happened." It has not surprised us, and we do not imagine It will surprise you, that wo havo fallen from the grace of even an attempt at reform, and that all our high resolves have "ended In smoke." Enclosed you will find a check for 0. the aggregate amount of the profits or penalties, though In such a cause, and under such clrcumstancos. a forfeit seems a winning, and a penalty becomes a pleasure. May we not hope that "out of evil good may come," and that our six-manifold weakness which we confess "with contrite hearts and penitent minds' may. In some small measure at least, strength en the hands of yourself and your asso ciates in your altogether admirable "la bor of love." With the best wishes for the noble char ity in which you and your lady associates are engaged, believe me, in behalf of my five fellows!nners and myself, yours most respectfully, FRED S. MORRIS, Chairman Reform Committee. The "Blanket Licence." PORTLAND. Aug. L (To tho Editor.) Our- license) committee- use! a. very poor blanket in making their new law. It was certainly made of shoddy, or it would not have shrunk so in the first washing. It falls to cover the advertising agent, archi tect, building and paving contractors, hide, wool and hair dealers, detective agencies, wire and fence workn, soda fountains, umbrella and hat stores, pho tographers and newspapers. Then we have about 1C0O profesdlonal men In this city, who make a living easily without the use of capital, and who do not contribute a cent to make this blanket more com fortable. The lawyers vihom the publl supply with courtrooms and Judge- o ply their vocation do not pay a cent. maybe because they are a necessary evil. The doctor, who also makes his money, easy, and his brother the dentist, are both left out in the cold. The blanket Is not large enough to cover them. The Jbweler is down for $10; the floritt ls "touchcl" for $20; the butter-dealer Is placed on a level with the rich Jeweler; and in tho vehicle license the hearse which carries us to the grave is down for 35 a quarter, while the doctor's carriage Is not down at all. The scale-dealer, who tries to mako men honest, is down for ?25 for his good intentions, while the poor waflle-man must contribute $9. and will certainly have to make larger holes in hl3 waffle3 In the fu ture. The saddler who helps to build up the town Is down for $20. and the new In fant industry, our Mining Exchange, has each of its members down for $100 a quar tetr. Most of these people are newcomers here and want to maka thla their homo, and certainly shoutd receive better treat ment from our city fathers. I am a gocd Judge of blankets, but thl3 is the worst blanket I ever saw, and I hope it won't last the city very long, or men may havo to patronize some other mill that can fur nish a better quality. I am In favor of a license, but want It graded first, second and third clas3, and to cover everybody. ARTHUR KOHN.
