Many Visitors Express Ap preciation of Privileges. SPRINGFIELD. Or., Sept. 18. (Spe cial.) Every night but 'one since the opening of the free campground lor automobile tourists here a month ago at least one party and sometimes as many as five parties have taken advan tage of the facilities offered in Spring field. Dozens of those who have stopped here have gone on to' spread the news of the welcome extended travelers in Springfield.

Ten of the best riders and 10 . of the worst horses on the grounds were participants in thlsf the feature event of the closing of the afternoon's pro gramme at the Frontier Show.

The cause of war is a narrow, ex clusive spirit. It is the spirit of pro vincialism that has led to the conflict of the millions in Europe in contused and almost aimless struggle. Another Challenge Heard. "Another challenge has come to us In America from the business world. Bismarck, said 10 years ago. 'War is business and business is war.' This saying will do to ponder. Great na tions of the past have gone to pieces by an cver-emphasis on a single In terest: Art In Greece and government in Rome, to the exclusion or relative neglect of the -other fundamental in terests in fellowship, religion, health and education. The nations of today are in danger of disaster from over emphasis upon the Interest of wealth. The struggle for supremacy In business at the expense of other interests Is too often today nothing less than war.

Commercial Club Is Promoting Project for Co-operation at Counties East of Cascades. BAKER. Or.. Sept. 18. (Special.) An Eastern Oregon fair, to comprise all counties east of the Cascades, is being advocated by Baker boosters as the re sult of the success of the co-operative plan of the Baker County Fair this year. Those back of the movement, which is to be put before the Baker Fair Board and Baker Commercial Club soon, argue that as Umatilla and Harney counties have no county fair, and since Union County would be glad to . co operate, there would be a comparatively easy start. It is expected that Malheur, Grant and Wallowa counties will also send the cream of their annual exhibits so that a comprehensive showing should be made. Other eastern counties are to be invited: The plan Includes big attractions that would draw people from all parts of the Northwest. It is also believed that homeseekers would be attracted by the big displays so that they could get an idea of the productiveness of the different counties, whereas they would not visit each county of Eastern Oregon. The movement will receive a strong start when a party of boosters will go in special cars to the Pendleton Round up next week as guests of Pendleton. The boosters will all wear special white hats and carry a horse-headed cane bearing the message, "Our Hobby an Eastern Oregon Fair or Baker." AFi
