and Clark stake of $2,000 for 2:20 trot

and a quarter mile dash, will be the at
tractions on Portland day. Among the
horsemen coming to the fair some of the
most famous stables In the West are
represented. W, A. Clark, Jr., a son of
United' States Senator Clark of Mon
tana, will be here from Butte with
fine racing stable, and he has hories
entered In both the big stakes. Capt

here and has entries In both the big
stakes. J. W. Miller, a wealthy mining
man from Colorado, -is bringing a stable
of fine horses here and will try for some
of the big purses, while many smaller
stables from all over the Northwest will
come here at that time and. help make
the racing program the best in the his
tory of ithe Northwest.
Track 1 Condition.
All the racing men now here are de
lighted with the prospects and the splen
did condition of the Lone Oak track is
a never-ending source of pleasure to
them.
The board only has one regret in con
nectlon' with the fair, and that la that
they will be unable to supply all the
concessions asked for. There are so
many applications for concessions from
all over the state that It will be Impos
sible to place and satisfy all who are
desirous ' of securing locations. The
outlook. Is Indeed a splendid one, and the
board has no fear as to the result, un
less the weather should be so bad that
tne attendance snouia do cut aown, ana
there Is little fear of that at this time.
Board Completes tabors. .
: 'Tha Marlon county -board of equalisa
tion completed Its labors on Saturday
evening after a week's session. Few
taxpayers appeared before the board,
and consequently few changes were
made In the valuation of property in
the county. Among the changes made
were the Increase in the valuations of
the Stocks of merchandise of two Salem
firm -3. 3. Dalrymple & Co., from
$11,000 to $8,000, and J. L. Stockton A
Co., from $6,000 to $8,000. A farm near
Turner was raised from $10 to $12 per
acre, and some wild land in the Cas
oada mountains, belonging to the Ore
gon A California Railroad Company,
was changed from $2 to $1.60 per acre.
Efforts were made by - the Salem
Flouring Mills Company and other cor
porations owning the Mill creek water
power franchise and by the Lowenberg
& Going Company, owning the foundry
In the penitentiary, to secure the abol
ishment of this taxation, but .without
result. These properties were taxed for
the first time last year, and the act of
the assessor raised a storm qf protest.
This year the franchiaes were not taxed
separately, but the value added to the
real estate, and efforts were made to re
duce the valuations These valuea, as
placed upon the property last year., and
again this year, are:
Salem Flouring Mills Company, last
year, $34,100: this year, $46,200, an In
crease of $12,100 for four water powers.
Thomas Kay Woolen Mills -Company,
from $11,000 to $15,000. an Increase of
$4,000 for . ope water power,
Salem Water Company.' from $8,000 to
$7,000, an Increase of $4,000 for one
power. '
The Lowenberg & Going Company,
whose property was valued at $15,000,
asked, for a reduction in vain, the valuar
tlon being allowed to s$and.

J. E. Defebaugh, editor and manager
of the American Lumberman, published
at Chicago, gave Portland recognition
and paid It some compliments . in the
Issue of August 29. His article opens
with some comments of Portland ss
one Of the prettiest cities in the United
States and also one of the wealthiest.
The people there are, enterprising, go-
ahead, who leave nothing undone for the
entertainment and Interest of their visi
tors. There is nq place on earth where
grander scenery, better climate and bet
ter surroundings generally can be found
than on the Columbia river." Mr. Dere
baugh cites the snow-capped peaks, the
valleys and the resources, makes a plea
for the 1906 meeting of the Concate
nated Order of Hoo Hoo, and argues
that tourists should plan to attend the
Lewis and Clark fair and visit the
points of interest in the Northwest. Con
tinuing) he writes: ti :
Soma of tbe Special Attractions.
'There are some of the grandest and
prettiest falls In that section that can
be found anywhere on earth. Among
them are Multnomah falls. 800 feet
high; Bridal Veil falls, 180 feet high,
and Latourelle falls, 600 feet high.
A trio would nrobablv be made to
Vancouver, WasfT, one of the oldest
settlements In the country, which was
made by the trappers of the Hudson
Bay oCmpany in 1630 or 16S2, when all
of this immense Northwestern country
was claimed by Great Britain. There
also will be a trip to the old headquar
ters of General Grant, . which were oc
cupied by him before the war. ,
'Another trip would be to the lower
Colombia, where the great fisheries' of
tne coiumDia win do snown to tne vis
itors. The Columbia fisheries are rec
ognised as the greatest in the world and
keep employed constantly a fleet of 1.200
sailing vessels which depart every night
for the Columbia river .bar and bring
back the magnificent Tyee r Chinook
salmon, the finest of the salmon family
that Is to be found In the tins of canner
ies anywhere in the' worlds,
"A visit to Astoria would ba included.
This town was named after John Jacob
Aetor, who sent one of his vessels to
the Pacific eoast on a fur trapping ex
pedition. From Astoria the visitors will
be taken to the mouth of the Columbia
river, where the government has spent
millions of dollars in keeping the sands
away from the entrance, so that large
steamers can enter. They will be taken
to Tillamook. ' There the Tillamook
lighthouse stand 200 feet high, , where
for days the lighthouse keepers are at
Lthe mercy of the elements, as It Is built
at the worst storm center on eitner the
.Atlantic or Pacific- coast
"If it prove desirable, a trip wfll-lie
made to Seaside oft- the ocean, where the
visitors will be given a dip in the briny
deep.,". -
. Several of the BUaor Attractions,
. "As f or-side trips, they wW he taken
Into the mountains and shown how lum
ber is cut and flumed from two- to four
miles at the rate-of a mil a minute to
a point where it Is putthrough the Ary
eastern shipment They will also have
an opportunity of visiting the Pacific
coast logging camps, where they will
see the method of operation at their
best.
"Other side trips will be through .the
famous Willamette 'valley, the richeat
in the world rivalling the Nile. One
to ' Grays Harbor, the center of spruce
production, where they will be given
clam bakea and fish fries until they can
not rest, provided, of course, they have
good appetites. Trips will, be made
along Puget Sound to Seattle. Taooma,
Everett, and to Victoria, B. C, a typi
cal English town, and from there to
Vancouver, the great sawmill point of
British Columbia.
"On all these trips they will see
mountains, lakes, the sound, the ocean
and everything within a strip of 200
miles, and In addition wilt be shown
the timber that has no equal. The
beauty about the trip is that they will
have an option of coming out over the
Canadian Pacific, the Great Northern or
the Northern Pacific, on which they can
visit Yellowstone Park and can go back
by way of California, the Union Pacific
or Sante Fe railroads, or. they can come
out that way and go back on any of
the' roads mentioned.
'Those who desire to prolong the trip
to Alaska and see the great glaciers
can do so at the most' favorable time
of the year. They will ride all the way
to Alaaka in eight days, constantly In
sight of land, with the exception of one
day, when they will be on the ocean.
The climate on the Pacific Northwest
coast in September is ideal, the days
are not too warm and the nights are
always, cool; they will sleep well at all
times under blankets, and they will miss
the hot September days of the East
A Most Hospitable People.
'The lumbermen here are a hospitable
class of people nearly all of them from
the East and the Hoo Hoo can come
with the assurance that everything pos
sible will be done to make their visit
here in 1905 or any other time on
long te be remembered. I am enthusias
ts on the subject or I would not have
devoted so much time or space to de
tailing the sights, scenes, side trips, by
land and sea, the charming Interior
and splendid water rides that can be
crowded into a comparatively few day
of time such a variety and character
of diversion, entertainment and edifying
series or pleasures as can nowhere else
on the earth be provided for the enjoy
ment of the 9,4:00 members of the Con
catenated Order of Hoo Hoo."
