The Roseburg city council met in reg ular session Monday evening, there be ing but twaabsentees from the board, Councilmen F. W llaynes and E. L. BrcMord. A legal opinion from Attorneys F. W. Benson and C. L. Hamilton was real, and was in reference to the advisability of the city refusing to pay F. J. Blakely the 20 per cent remainder of the stipu lated price for fixing the streets, because the work was not executed in conform ity to the contract. The attorneys held that as the city had already paid 80 per cent of the contract price for street work on the warranted action of the council committee appointed to supervise the improvement, it was therefore a virtual acceptance of all the work performed, and the city accordingly became bound to pay the lemaiuder of the contract price. The opinion was ordered on nie Th striH-t work of H. J. w Ukins was accepted. Plat of tiroiiertv lielonging to Mrs. K. Moflitt and heirs was offered ns an ad .liiioii the c itv of Bosdmrj.

J. tlakely for street work were referred to committee with inslroc tions to report at an early date. When this committee reports, the recorder will then draw warrants for the amounts which they recommend. City-treasurer was "ordered to notify parties on Sheridan and Cass streets that their assessments for additional 'street work is now due and should be paid at once. The following etitiou addressed to the mayor and council was read : "We, the undersigned projK'rty own' ers on Cass street, do oppose the extra rise in the sidewalks, as it is an injury to our property both i n looks and value.

Wednesday morning damied cloudy and threatening, Nit liefore noon the fog s-attere-l and sunshine renewed the nterest of our citizens and every ont- talked of attending the fair; those had decided not to attend with their exhibits were watching long and anx iously for rigs with which to haul them to the gronud ; and the entry clerk were kept more than busy during the forenoon. Although the exhibits in the jsnilion are not as large as at previous fairs, the grade and quality are much superior to any Oregon produce an 1 products heretofore seen. The green ami dried fruit exllihi: although very small is a credit not ony to Donglas cmnty, but to any county r state upon the Pacific coast. Hon. !. W. Riddle, of Azalea, has the largest display of dried and evaporated frni's. among which are three ta-es whi.;h were on exhibition at the fair held at this place seven years ago. It is le niarkable that after so long a time the fruit should look o freh an t I e so mellow. It would take an expert to i.,n i...i;ir.i.u lrutrn.ii ill. -,!.! n.l! the new fruit. ' The display of fancy work is tiuite large and interesting as are also '.he paintings in oil and crayon. The display of poultry is not as large as was expected, but this exhibit is ot and Sherwood he finest breeds and would be ptixe winners at any show. In the live stock department there are aome fairly goo I stock. This exhibit is not nearly as large as was expected by the association. Among the individual display worthy of mention are the booths of the Skes Hardware Co., Burr's Popular Music House and S. C. Flint's shoes, wliieli occupy the east end of the pavilion.' All have very neat and attractive disp.ays. Wednesday afternoon's racing was well attended and most interesting. At 2 o'clock the crowd" was attracted to the race course grand stand by the Rose burg band loncert and at 2:30 sl.afpe the judges railed the hrst race, and from that time the crowd w as kept in a fever of excitement bytlie races whicn were run without a '"hitch." Although the track was slow the races were non-j the less interesting. The first race for trotters and nacers of the three minute class, purse f 150, brought out the following horses Bicker's '"Zu Lu ;" Norton's "I C:" and Rodzer's "Bodecker." The starter lost no time in getting the horses away w ith a betntifnl start. "Zu Lu" and "I C ms.de a tine race tho entire course, finishing, "Zu Lu" first, "I C" secon. ah 1 "Bodecker" a bad third.
