I don't like to see this hard. feeling,. and yet I think the Hillsboro community is Justified in taking such action.

Another Important Event in American History. Although it might seem that the American- people would reach the-limit of expositions in ithe great Bt Louis World's Fair which is to be held in 1904, the people living in the Northwest American States of Oregon, Washington, Idaho and Montana have decided to hold an exposition in 1905 in commemoration of the 100th anniversary of the first ex ploratlon of that section by the famous pioneers, Lewis and Clark, In 1805. This Exposition will not be on as large, a scale as that at St. Louts, but it will be sufficiently extensive and comprehensive to deserve the attention of foreign countries. The Hon. John Barrett, the cbmmlssloner-general for the St. Louis World's Fair, who has been dolhg such excellent work in Ceylon for that under taking, and who leaves today for India to confer with the Viceroy, Lord Curson, and attend the Coronation Durbar at Delhi, has kindly given the Independent some Information in regard to the Lewis and Clark Exposition. Mr. Barrett said: ABOUT" TUB FAIR. "The Lewis and Clark Exposition. will be held In Portland, the principal city of the State of Oregon, In the northwest section of the United States, during the year of 1906. It will be opened about four months after the close of St. Louis' World's Fair (or approximately April 1, 1906) and so enable exhibitors to trans fer readily their exhibits from St Louis to Portland and thus obtain the advan tage of two expositions. While I have no official connection whatever with the Lewis and Clark Exposition, I feel a deep Interest in Its success, because I am a resident of Oregon and a great believer in the future development and pnosperlty of that section of the United States. I am hopeful that nearly all the foreign countries, especially those of Asia, which are participating In the St. Louis World's Fair, will see fit to con tinue' their exhibits at Portland after they are through at the former. They will certainly derive benefits therefrom that will compensate them for the alight extra expense ' involved - and -tha torief extra time roqutred. The management' of the Lewis and Clark Exposition will make special - arrangements to convey exhibits to Portland and will offer foreign exhibitors every facility they can desire. Portland is a city of about 100,000 of population, located on the Co lumbia - River, which separates Oregon from the State of Washington. It has excellent .hotels, is a railway center, and a port to ana from wnicn steamers regu larly ply to all parts of the Pacific. The States of Oregon, Washington. Idaho and Montana represent a combined area of nearly 350,000 square miles,, and yet are in the infancy of their material develop ment They contain a vast variety of resources and will eventually support 80 times the population they nave a pres ent. The people in that section are progressive and prosperous and will take great Interest In the exhibits of foreign countries, particularly those from Asia. Oregon and Washington have a coast line on the Pacific of almost a thousand miles, and are much concerned about the growth of trans-Pacific commerce. They wish to build up a market in Asia for their exports and to buy from the Far East articles that they do not produoe themselves. I trust that Ceylon will see fit to transfer the magnificent exhibit it Is preparing for St. Louis, either entirely or in part, to Portland after the close of the Louisiana Purchase Exposition. CAS WAS DISMISSED. "This is the second attempt of this man Clayton to get people to come to court through his children, and both times the cases were dismissed without a healing. In our case in the Police Court there were no witnesses called for the defense and it was also dismissed." The above statement as made last night by Mrs. C. Lancaster to a Journal reporter. Mrs. Lancaster and her daugh ter, Miss Tessle Lancaster, were ar rested last week by George Clayton, a neighbor, on a charge of attempting- to kill his two children. Judge Hogua dis missed lhecaso for lack of sufficient evi dence. COSTS NOTHING UNLESS CURED A Pair Offer to All Ca tarrh Sufferer. The leading druggists of this cltv are selling Hyomel on a plan that has caused considerable talk amongst tieir custom ers. The plan is different from that fol lowed by other remedies, but the remedy itself is different also. This tmimni for the cure of catarrh has such an un usual record of cures to its credit that all druggists are authorised to refund the money if it does not give the de sired benefit This is certainly one of the fairest offers tbat can be made, and any one who has catarrh and does not take advantage of it is doing himself or herself an injustice. The Hyomel treatment consists of an inhaler that can be carried in the vent pocket a medicine dropper and a bottle of Hyomel. - Tho complete treatment costs but $1, and as. the inhaler will last a lifetime, and there is sufflctent.liyomei for more than a month's use, the medi cine Is very inexpensive. Many people who have ased It write that for the goad Hyomel has done them they would will ingly pay thousands of dollars. Extra bottles of Hyomel can be procured for use with the inhaler atr60 conts. Do not suffer any longer with tickling, smarting, lrrttatina. burnlBr. eve-water ing troubles that afflict those who have catarrh. Hyomel will cure - you, but if you should not find it adapted to your case, your uruggwi wm return your Sheriff Storey Would Not Decline if Friends Force Him Info It. Sheriff W, A. Storey, he of the genial smile and glad band, would go to Wash ington as United States Senator from Oregon if bis '.friends force the issue upon him. and hevbe elected. This much he admitted to a Journal reporter this morning. . '8herlf," aid the reporter, as he Up toed Into the private sanctum of the county peace 'guardian, "they say you want to go to Washington to represent this great commonwealth in the halls of that hlatorio building, the United States Senate." . "Gracious!"; exclaimed tho Sheriff, aa he turned red in the face. "What hava you to Bay about Itr aBked the reporter,, ; 'About whatt" ; , "The rumor abdut,y"urself." "Well; now, young 'man, If you were in my place, what-would you dor" The reporter couldn't imagine. "I'll say this," voiunteerthq the Sheriff. "I'd not throw down my friends on any proposition, and if they want me to go to Washington to represent this state, and Pra elected. I ll go." The Sheriff smiled his Bweetest. "Whttt you mean, then, said the re porter, "is that if forced to become a candidatet you would not decline the honor." i "Exactly, and" "And If the people of Oregon should overwhelmingly elect you to the ex alted station, you, of course, could not back down." "That's the 'idea." ' . "But what hava' you to say regarding your attitude at present with regard to becoming a -candidate" was asked. "Oh, I'm not a candidate would not be a candidate for the position, wouldn't think of it, unless" "Unless, as. you've said before, your friends forced you," put In the reporter. That's correct." ' "But they say you're going to Salem to launch a boom." "There s nothing in it; I am going there, but merely as a spectatoi? noth ing more, i have attended the Legis lature for a long years, and I should dislike to miss a session. You under stand?" And with -a modesty like unto that of the diffident Harvey W. Scott, the busy Sheriff said, as the reporter withdrew: "No, I'm not a candidate." DIRECTORS WILL DO LOBBYING Important Meeting ol Fair Director ate to Be Held Tomorrow. A meeting of .some Importance will be that of the directors of the Lewis and Clark Fair late tomorrow afternoon. Many momentous questions will be passed upon, First ithere- will- come tha report of the legislation committee, and the report of its sub-committee. These committees will report that the Lewis and Clark Fair appropriation bill ia al ready in the hands of the Multnomah del egation to the State Legislature, and will recommend that Messrs. Knapp and Mclsaac be authorised to act aa special commissioners to ths "Western Legisla tures In behalf of the Fair. The agricultural committee of the Fair will report the proposition of the State Agricultural College to take charge of the agricultural exhibit, as printed In The Journal recently, and request that a few acres of land be set aside for them for this purpose, as work on the preparation of this exhibit must be com menced at once. Another question which will undoubt edly be discussed will be the number of directors to do lobbying in Salem In behalf of the Fair bill. This will un doubtedly arouse much heat In the meet ing, as many consider It of momentous importance that the Fair bill be sup ported In every way possible. IMPROVING THE RIVER United States Engineers Operator Snagboat and Dredges. Assistant Engineer Ogden, United States Engineers, bus returned from a visit to the Unltfl states snagboat Math loma, which is working above Corvallis, removing snags from the river. The work the Mathloma Is doing will benefit the cites along the river and the interior greatly, as there are regular lines of boats bringing down wheat from the upper river, and that part of the river is densely filled with snags, making a passage for thexc boats very difficult During the last month the Mathloma re moved over 2.000 Hnags in the' upper river. It will probably work in this por tion of the river the rest of this month. The United Stat.-s dredge Ladd Is still at work at Slaughter's Bar. It has been working at this bar for the past two months during which time it has re moved 95,500 yards of dirt, rocks, etc. A dipper drerigo Is being 'prepared by the engineers fr work ' on the Lewis River. This river is full of shoals and snags and the removal of these would be a great benefit to the lumber and navi gation interests of Oregon. There are a great number of railroad ties in this rlver also, which must ne raised. PTOU.1ST ffl IROUBIE (Journal Special Service'.) LONDON. Aaru 8.

The Lewis and Clark Fair directors will do some lobbying at Salem the next few days. It will be In behalf of the Lewis and Clark Fair bill. Late this afternoon a sub-committee of the legis lation, committee of the fail will meet and discuss the advisability of either sending a large or small' delegation to Salem for thla purpose. This sub-committee consists of the following mem bers: A. L. Mills, W. D. Fen ton, Rufus Mallory and P. L. Willis. It is the opinion of many of the di rectors that all of the Lewis and Clark Fair directors should attend the opening session of tne- Legislature -fn body. This,- It is stated, would help the pas sage of the bill, as the directors would be on the spot to make explanations regarding it if necessary. SPECIAL COMMISSIONERS. Another question to be decided by this sub-committee will be the number of special commissioners to employ to vlBlt the Legislatures of the Western States in behalf of the exposition. As exclus ively stated in Tho Journal In the past few days, there are two candidates for the offices. They are, John F. Knapp, the commissioner who visited the governors of the Western States, and who returned from his trip lost Tuesday, and C. H. Mc lsaac, the secretary of the Manufactur ers' Association. In all probability both will be employed, as many of the Legis latures are in session at the present time, and it is imperative that they be visited a oricn. Another candidate.jRalpfo Dunl way, has announced himself today. , He will also probably be, one of tho ap pointees. MEETING YESTERDAY;.
