PRAISE PROGRESS OFWORK
Find Fair Holds Record for
Early Completion.
STATE EXHIBITS EN ROUTE
Senator W. H. Fairbank, With Build
er, on Exposition Grounds to
Commence Work Many Com
ing From New England.
Senator Wilson H. Fairbank, of Massa
chusetts, Executive Commissioner for that
state to the Lewis and Clark Centennial,
Is in Portland, together with C. Dudley
Perkins, who will superintend the con
struction of the Massachusetts building
and also have charge of the building dur
ing the Exposition. These gentlemen
were snowbound for several days dur
ing their journey across the continent.
Senator Fairbank was enthusiastic yes
lerday after visiting the Exposition
grounds.
"One thing is certain," he said, "this
Exposition is in better shape than any I
was ever interested In before. You -will
break all records by being ready on the
opening day. Why, your Fair is almost
completed now. They are putting the
jrravel on the 'walks and drives, a thing
that was not done at St. Louis until af
ter the Exposition there opened. I am
well pleased with the present aspect of
the Fair.
Many Coming From New England.
"There are a great many people coming
from New England. They will -want to
visit all parts of the Pacific Coast as
well as the Centennial. A great number
will be men of capital and leisure. We
axe doing our best to advertise the Fiar.
Wc arc preparing a folder of 32 pages
to bo distributed throughout the State of
Massachusetts. This folder will describe
the Exposition, give photographs of the
officials, and show the best routes from
Massachusetts to Oregon, beside giving
views along- the "way. We have $30,000
worth of exhibits already stored on the
Exposition grounds. More are coming,
one car being expected to arrive within
a fow days."
The cars containing the Massachusetts
exhibit bear on their sides huge signs
reading, "Massachusetts Exhibit for the
Lewis and Clark Centennial Exposition,
Portland, Oregon."
Senator Fairbank announced yesterday
that bids for the construction of tho
Massachusetts State building will be re
ceived until noon, Thursday, February
23. The speclticatlons are at the office
of the director of architecture. They state
that the building must be ready for ac
ceptance by April 20. Senator Fairbank
will remain in Portland until the con
struction of tho building Is under way,
when he will return to' Massachusetts
lor a visit to his home in Warren. Ho
will again come to Portland about the
time the state building is completed. Sen
ator Fairbank was the Executive Commis
sioner for Massachusetts to the Exposi
tion at St. Louis.
BETTER MONTANA EXHIBIT.
Commissioners Ask $5000 More for
Showing at Portland "Fair.
HELENA, Mont, Feb. IS. (Special.)
The report of the Montana World's Fair
Commission has just been submitted to
Governor Toole, and it seems to be tho
prevalent opinion In Statehouee circles
that the Legislature will not hesitate in
.responding to the request for additional
funds for the proper Installation, care of
and increasing the Montana exhibit at the
Portland Exposition.
The report, in so far as the Lewis and
Clark Exposition is concerned, says:
"All of the St. Louis exhibits designed
for the Lewis and Clark Exposition to be
field at Portland have already gone for
ward, and an agent of the Commission Is
now on the ground to receive them. It Is
tho intention of the Commission to add
euch new and available material as may
be necessary and can be secured for the
Portland exhibits.
"The appropriation tor the Lewis and
Clark Exposition is 510,000. This sum is
not sufficient to enable the Commission
to erect a state building, and we shall
therefore have to be content to make our
display at Portland In the regular desig
nated Exposition buildings, foregoing the
pleasure and comforts of a building of our
cwn, as we enjoyed at St Louis.
"In the present condition of the state
treasury we hesitate to suggest a further
appropriation. However, after a careful
consideration of the subject, the execu
tive committee Is of tho opinion that the
sum available for Portland will be insuf
ficient to properly add to, Install, care for
and return our exhibits, and that an ad
ditional sum of 55000 should be appropri
ated for this purpose."
UTAH DELEGATION ARRIVES.
Confidence Expressed That State Will
Set Apart $30,000.
The party from the State of Utah Is
in Portland to make arrangements for
that state's representation at the Lewis
and Clark Centennial. They visited the
grounds yesterday and announced them
selves as well pleased with the scope and
percentage of completion of the Exposi
tion. Thomas Hull, Speaker of the House of
the Utah Legislature: W. M. Merrill,
chairman of the ways and means commit
tee of the House; Judge C a Kinney, a
member of tho same committee, andB.
J. Goddard, a prominent business man
of Salt Lake, composed the party. All
were accompanied by their wives.
"The bill appropriating 530.000 for tho
Exposition will pass," said Speaker HulL
"Upon our return we will make a con
vincing report on the Exposition to our
Legislature."
Indiana Society to Be Organized.
That all former residents of the State
of Indiana now living: in Oregon may
become acauaintecL nnrt InMriontoiiv
the purpose of forming an association
that will bo of assistance in promoting
the Lewis and Clark Exposition, a reg
ister will be opened Monday morning
at the store of Jaeger Bros., 290 Mor
rison street, where all "Hooslers" are
earnestly requested to sign their
names. As soon as sufficient have been
enrolled to justify so doing, a society
will be formed.
Exposition Notes.
The walks and drives at the Exposition
grounds are being bedded with South
American red gravel, which came to Port
land as ballast Contrasted with the
dazzling white of the buildings this color
Is most pleasing.
The Agricultural Palace was turned over
to the State Lewis and Clark Commission
at noon yesterday, examined and formally
accepted. Director of Exhibits Dosch
at once began laying out the floor plan
and the installation of exhibits .will begin
at an early date.
The Installation committee of the State
Lewis and Clark Commission, consisting
of F. A. Spencer, J. H. Albert and W. E.
Thomas, held a meeting last night at Ex
position headquarters, when applications
for space for connty exhibits were re
ceived. They were considered and a re
port will be made on this subject at an
early date. The committee also discussed
what to set aside for the state agricul
tural and horticultural display, and this
will be made public at the same time the
county awards are published.
LAXITY W BEF0BH WORK.
Many Have Poor Civic Ideals, Says
Thomas McCusker.
PORTLAND, Or., Feb. 18. (To the
Editor.) Referring- to your editorial in
the Saturday Oregonlan, "Matters of
Civic Pride," In which you ask the
whereabouts of certain individuals who
were formerly engaged In the work of
civic improvement, myself among- the
number. I desire to say that I am still
In the land of the living and as much
interested in the work as ever, but I
must admit that I am not as actively
engaged In the work as formerly, for
various reasons.
In the first place, the absolute indif
ference of our so-called good citizens Is
a great handicap to any work of Im
provement, no matter along what line,
and the willful violation of tho ordi
nances by more of our good citizens,
who are engaged in business, coupled
with the apathy of the city officials,
make it extremely difficult to accom
plish much.
Again, there are those who approve
of what we have done, but don't want
their names mentioned for certain busi
ness or political reasons, and there are
numerous good citizens who hide under
the title of "Anonymous," who point
out where work can be done, and give
us good advice and encouragement of
a kind. In faot, the Civic Improve
ment Association practically dwindled
down to perhaps half a dozen active
workers and called for so much of our
time that we could not afford to follow
it up. What we have accomplished
shows for itself In trio very marked Im
provement of conditions over what ex
isted a couple of years ago, and the po
lice force of the city did not assist in
the work cither. Ther is an ordinance
against displaying merchandise and
vegetables on the sidewalks, but it is
done every day, and the police stumble
over the obstructions without seeing
them. We have an officer whose duty
it Is to look after this, but for some
unaccountable reason he Is unable to
remedy the fault The merchant for
the sake of a few dollars which he
thinks he will get sinks his civic pride
and violates the ordinance. Contract
ors who build houses obstruct the
street and sidewalks, not so much with
building material as with rubbish, and
claim they have a permit from the City
Engineer. There is a place on Park
and Columbia streets that has been In
this condition for at least 90 days. It
seems to me that if the contractor or
owner of the property have no civic
pride the. City Engineer should refuse
a permit
I made an attempt to prevent the
stretching of -unsightly banners across
the streets, but found that in each case
the Council had granted a permit; in
fact, that the Council was tho first to
violate the ordinances.
The city claims to be in need of
money to carry on the affalr3 and seeks
to raise it by various means, but "over
looks certain nuisances that should be
taxed, particularly the billboards.
I believe the city receives 5200 per
year from one monopoly for granting
them tho privilege of obstructing the
view with ungainly billboards, as well
as permitting them to litter your yard
and porch with dodgers. This fran
chise is worth many thousands of dol
lars to the firm which has it, and there
is no reason why the city should not
have some of it In fact, no one would
be sorry to lose them altogether.
There are perhaps 5000 signs up In
this city, and not one of them in ac
cordance with the ordinance, and they
are worth to the owner considerable
money. These signs should pay from
51 to 53 per quarter to the city. I do
not mean tho signs that are on the
buildings, but those on and over the
sidewalk, contrary to law.
There is an ordinance making neces
sary the painting of telegraph, tele
phone and electric light poles, and I
believe the owners have signified their
willingness to comply. I have told tho
Mayor that I would endeavor to have
galvanized iron boxes placed on the
poles so that waste paper, etc, would
not be thrown on tho streets, but the
paint Is not forthcoming.
Regarding the spitting on the side
walks. I had this matter up with Gen
eral Bebee and Mr. Sichel. of the police
committee, and they promised to make
this a special order to the police, and
I believe did so, as I am sure this disgusting-
habit Is not so bad as formerly.
I am glad you have taKen this mat
tor up and hope yon will continue to
agitate .it and some good will come of
It Our association received Its great
est encouragement from the press of
this city and Its members are grateful
for same.
I believe that in a very short time
the matter of civic improvement will
receive new life, as aeveral organiza
tions of this city are considering It
now, notably the Chamber of Com
merce. In conversation with Mr. Wheel
wright a few days ago he assured mo
that he would lay the matter before
the Chamber of Commerce and prom
ised that they would begin active work
in the near future..
I feel confident that a strong organ
ization of this kind will accomplish
good results, and I trust that there will
be an awakening of civic pride in Port
land and that everyone will lend a
hand in this good work
As I told Mr. Wheelwright, I am
ready to co-operate with any organiza
tion or body of citizens' who desire to
push this work.

Consul Miller of China Has
Fine Collection.
SOON -TO BE SEEN HERE
He Will Make Surprising Revelations
to Portland Merchants Concern
ing Oriental Trade Maza
mas to the Front.
Henry B. Miller, American Consul -General
to Nluchwang, China, is generally
accredited with being the best informed
man In America upon present conditions
In the war zone in the Orient During his
present visit to Washington, D.. C, he Is
being consulted by high Government offi
cials concerning the Russian-Japanese
War, and his opinions have been tele
graphed to various parts of the United
States as of supreme significance. He is,
indeed, the highest authority on this sub
ject for he has been at the seat of war,
Nluchwang being only a short distance
from Port Arthur, and only left there a
short time' ago at the call of his home
Government
It is not generally known that he has
here In Portland, In the care of his
friends, a large and very valuable collec
tion of photographs; taken during the
war, up to within a few weeks ago, show
ing active military operations at close
range. These pictures constitute a vivid
and highly dramatic story of the most
realistic sort illustrating every conceiv
able phase of the war, its tragedies. In
ventive skill, finesse, personal heroism,
and countless crafty and curious devices
for outwitting the enemy.
. Permission has been obtained by Consul
Miller's friends the Maza mas to give a
public exhibition of these pictures In the
Immediate future, upon Consul Miller's
return to this city, on which occasion he
will himself explain to Portland people
the highly dramatic war episodes depicted
In these photographs. This will tako- the
form of a stereoptlcon entertainment and
will be of exceptional historical value and
thrilling Interest
Consul Miller will also have some sur
prising revelations to make concerning
forthcoming trade conditions at the con
clusion of the war, and the Pacific Coast's
relations with the Orient which will be of
exceptional Interest to Portland business
men, who will learn on this occasion
many practical facts concerning trade op
portunities that have never before been
made public The value of Consul Miller's
talk In this respect to Portland merchants
will far exceed anything ever before of
fered them on Oriental trade.
In addition to a series of war pictures
showing the fall of Port Arthur, the peril
ous work of clearing the harbor Of the
deadly mines, wreckage of the Siberian
railway, peculiar methods of laying heavy
cables, gunboats, commissary scenes,
there will be numerous group pictures,
showing leading diplomats. Generals, war
correspondents and other high officials
and their wives, now at the front There
arc dinner parties and social gatherings.
In which these dignitaries are seen In
their most characteristic and natural
poses. In every cafe the portraiture of
each Individual Is most faithful to life,
and easily recognizable.
Consul Miller enjoyed the unusual priv
ilege of close companionship with celeb
rities, both Japanese and Russian, as well
as Chinese, and probably nowhere else In
America can be found such a collection of
pictures of well-known personages, now
busily engaged in making history and
changing the map of Asia.
As Consul Miller is a most delightful
speaker, and will explain fully all the war
Incidents and historical events shown by
picture, the opportunity soon to be pre
sented is sure to be greeted with enthusi
asm by the public generally.
