(Journal epeclal Serrlea.) Tbara waa irreat aurpiiaa In tha Son ata yea tarda. afternoon whan a sieaa-e from the Governor waa aubmltted veto In Aenate BUI No. 60. for the proteo s tlon of Oregon foreat from ravarea by fire. There had been no thought' but that thla measure would receive execu tive approval, but Governor Chamber laln'a reason, aa stated In the meaaave, apeedlly showed tha rrounda bo took. Tha objections follow) "First. It appropriates 1800 annual ly for the purpose of carrying out the provisions of the act. but while thla appropriation la made, the bill by its very -terms i authorises the creation of claims airalnst the state and the sev eral countiea which may reach aa much aa 150.000 or more in one year, for which deficiency appropriations) would have to be made at the next aeaalon of the Leg islature to cover tha state's portion thereof. The five rommlaataners named. In the act ara authorised to ap point at leaat one person In each coun ty Of the state aa a fire warden they may appoint more. Biff roaalblUtlea. "Say that they do appoint two In each county. The salary for each la not to exceed $300. Slxty-flve fire wardena at $100 ia $19,800 per annum. The fire wardena In each county, at tha request of the commission have power to nomi nate with the approval of the commis sion, Ave rangers wboao salaries are to be paid by the counties and are not to exceed $2 per day while employed in actual service. The secretary of the commission ia to receive $t per day for the time actually employed by him, and be together with eacii 'of tha commis sioners receive mileage at the rat? of I cents per mile for the distance actually traveled w the performance of duty. "It la safe to aay that there will be t applications Bled with the commission to appoint men to tha full limit of tbelr power of appointment, and the expense in the very nature of things la bound to bo large, however capable and hottest the commission may be. A large 1n aebtedneaa will aureiy be created against tha state and numerous claims against the several pountlea. Protection of tha timber Interests of the atate may justify this expense, but it seems to me that the bill Itself ex vl termini should limit tha amount of moneys walch the eon- . mission shall expend, and aa appropria tion made therefor. , . Takes rower Itoam BveentlTe. "Second. Another objection to the feet la the fact that the Legislature ua- . dertakes to deprive tha executive of the state of the power given bim by the constitution. . It will be noticed that xhls act names tha Ova commissioners, i who ara to hold their offloes for four , years, after which the executive Is to appoint. An admission oa the f aoa of .the Act tBat the executive Is the proper person to appoint the commissioners, and not the Legislature. . On saotlon of Senator Booth, author . tof tha bill,. it wa mado special order of fcualnesa for 10:3 o'clock this morning--' . Senate Bill No. 101 was also vetoed on tha following grounds, this veto $elng sustained at once: "Tha aot sought to be amended em powers Incorporated cities or towns to appropriate private .real property, water, etc., for the general use of the. public within and beyond tha corporate lim its, but there is a proviso 'that In all Cities oontalaiag less thaa 15,000 inhabi tants no aotlon for the appropriation of private property or for the payment therefor as allowed by this act shall be taken fey the Council ' of such city or town except a majority of the taxpay : rs of aald city or towh voting at an lection to be -called and held for that purpose have voted In favor of said ac tion.! The amendment proposes to elim inate this proviso from the original statute " - "I cannot believe that it will be for the best public Interest that this pro viso be eliminated from the present law.

Mayer,' the, New Tork mem ber of the Arm of Fleischner, Mayer & Co., arrived in Portland .yesterday. Mr. Mayer is a Portland boy, but for the past IS years, has resided in tew Tork,, Quite a big Astoria contingent passed through Portland on their way to Salom this morning, where they will boom their candidate for Senator. - Among those in the party are Mrs. C. W, FuHon, P. A. Stokes and W, H. Barker. Bernard Lindenberger. of the Llnd- enberger Packing Company, of Astoria, passed through Portland today oh hla way to Ban Franclsoo. Mr. Llnden harger returned from a three months' trip to Europe last week, where he vis ited the head office of his concern. Henry Hah , president of.Wadhams ft Company, local wholesale grocers, is still " agitating the , establishing of a lino of steamers between Portland and Southeastern Alaska. C. D." Fraser, one of the Arm's lead ing salesmen, has just returned from a live-weeks' business trip through that section of the country, and hla report ia what haa renewed Mr. Haas's activ ity toward getting the steamship line eatabllahed. .. ... , To The Journal Mr. .Fraser said this morning: "L have just returned from a Ave weeks' business trip to the cities of Southeastern Alaska, and what I saw sjmda sns ajulta aVfar at seert P'rtr land has not a' single steamer- running between this port and Alaska People up m that country want to buy every thing that wt produce and receive, from a potato to mining machinery, and from aaedlas to paint brushes. We are handicapped la getting our goods to that country, because we have no direct connections with ships. Seattle Kas Tourteea Boats. "Seattle Is wideawake and realises the Importance of having direct steam ers to our Northern territory. The fel lowlng list will certainly show you that there must be some business In the North or the steamers running from the Sound would be withdrawn. The list Is aa follows: Pacific Coast Steam ship Company, four steamers to 8kag way; Pacific Packing and Navigation Company, four steamers to Valdes; the Alaska Steamship Company, four steam- era to Southeastern Alaska. The Pa clflc Packing and Navigation Company also has a fleet of steamers rurmlng from Valdes to Uaalaska and Dutch Hra- bor. It la all foolishness for Portland -capitalists to sit back in their chairs and aay that there is no business for a line of ships from Portland to the far North. The people of Alaska want our vegetables, our freeh eggs and butter at least they want all that wt ever raise In this state. ' They also want our furniture and other manufactured prod ucts and are willing to trade with us if given balf a chance. They want Port land to send a line of steamers into that country and compete for their buslnens. Portland merchants are favored, by the merchants of the North whenever it Is possible to do so. On my trip to Alaska there waa not a single town or hamlet that I reached that I didn't do some business. I would have dona a much larger amount if the goods could be sent as quickly as tbey could from Seattle. To sum up the whole thing in a nut shell, Alaska merchants are willing to buy their goods from u. from A to Z. if we will only oome up and compete. Tbe amount of business I did was re markable when you come to consider that it has been two years slnoe our firm has sent a representative to that ooantry. We were compelled to with draw all our men when tbe line of steamers which formerly ran from this port were taken off. Yaldes to the rront. ,lThe Valdes country Is coming to the front among Alaska mining centers. The 1 town is situated on deep water at the head of Prlncl William's Sound. It has one wharf finished and another lh course of construction. The country back of the city Is Hooded with gold and copper.- The copper is not taken out on account of the lack of transpor tation facilities. It 1s ho pure that most of it will run nearly 100 per cent of the real thing. It would cost about $0 cents a pound to transport the stuff to the outside by pack team, and the en tire product 1s being thrown out of the sluice boxes and stored away In.. he hope that sometime in the future tha section may have a railroaa and be able to obtain cheaper transportation f&clll ties. - "The people of Valdes laugh every time a Portlander comes there and says that a steamship line will be es SUPERINTENDENT, , OF GROUNDS Oscar Halter ' Is Selected ly the ' : v rur iircciors. As predicted la Tbe Journal. 'no di rector-general of the Lewis and Clarke Fair was selected by the executive com mittee of the Fair yesterday afternoon. The committee held a meeting, and for the reasons stated Hi Monday's Journal, did not agree oa a effector-general, but. instead, a temporary superintendent of grounds was appointed. The reason for tha aon-aeleotioa of a director-general Is' because there Is no one In 'Oregon at the present time who Is considered cap able of.niiing that om.ee. - There were present at the meeting tbe following members Of the committee: H. W. HcotL A. L. II ! P.i.l w... singer, W. D, Wheelwright and Rufus Mai lory. - There was aesae discussion as to tha proper poraoa te appoint aa superintend ent of grounds. vAftr discussing the merits or various men In .connection with this ofsce, the committee decided on Oscar Huber as the one moot St for : the offlre. Mr. Huber Is a civil engineer j or sianauig, ana is or uie nrm of Wuber st Maxwell. Mr, Huber waa instructed to make a topograph IcaJ survey Of the Fair grounds and to prepare a clay model of them. The agricultural committee was In- structed to arrange for the collection of trees and shrubs. These are to be placed IA hot houses until tbe grounds sre platted and n lomthMmocoided them.

Is the question which various members of the Nelll Stock Company arc answering for the past week. The reason for this rather pertinent question is the fact that "all the Comforts of Homo" is on the boards at the Baker Theatre, snd will continue to be on till next Sunday, when it will be superseded by the powerful melo-drama entitled "The Oreat Diamond Robbery." "All the Comforts Of Home" is draw ing big crowds at The Baker, and , the "S. "K. O." sign was not Infrequently dis played during the week. The characters assumed - by the Nelll. Stock Company were portrayed in a life-like manner. The excellence of this was recognised by the audience who were not loth to ex press their pleasure at such remarkable acting. The scene of action of "All the Comforts of Home" Is in a drawing room in a private house in London, and the play consists of four acts. It is superbly staged, the Bcenjc effects being excellent SOU. rail Aa -tussaa.

In the leading feminine character of the dramatic version of Oulda's famous novel "Btrathmore," entitled "Lord Strathmore, - is one of the most . ac complished and fascinating actresses on the American Stage;, a lady posneftned of rare personal jsharms, and already well received by the publicly She has been compared In her style of acting with Olga Nethersole, and in tbe rendi tion of the role of Lady Vavasour por trays a style of work which ia decidedly unique, a gem in self. She la a stately woman, full of fire, portraying ' passion and pathos equally well, her very, presence on the stage holding her audienoe throughout the entire evening-. Her costumes are said to be expensive ! and gorgeous creations of the latest Parisian mooes, and she has long been a criterion for the devotees of fashion. Miss Tresoett has been surrounded by a company of ladies and gentlemen all of whom have held leading positions la first class companies, andf are experienced In their respective roles, each selected for the particular character which they are to enact. ' The production has been mag nificently staged, the tapestry hangings of the drawing room and morning room scenes being especially attractive.
