NO HIGH WATER ON
GOVERNMENT SITE
' Although tha Lewis and Clark fair
corporation haa received no direct word
concerning the tentative rejection of tha
government site by the government
board, its chief officers are not alarmed
at tha reports sent out by press dls
patchea No .word has been received at
tha fair headquarters nor by anyMocal
fair official : concerning this proposed
governmental action, and today Director
General Goods kept the wires busy en
deavoring to discover the true status of
tha case.
Should the resort prove true that tha
government board Is disturbed over tha
probability of high water on the pro
posed site for the government bulldlnas.
the situation Is not regarded by tha cor
poratlon aa serious, since the ' highest
water ever recorded In Portland did not
reach the chosen alto. The Washington
report,' that until the topography' of the
peninsula waa known to tha government
board, no approval of tha site, would be
made. Is not considered to cut much,
figure, since It Is easily proven that the -peninsula,
chosen for.-, the government
buildings is far above high water, and
haa'never been covered .In tha time of.
the most dangerous floods, the 1894
flood not reaching the site by many feet
ITTcrallay any suspicion that may have :
gained foothold In the minds of the gov
ernment commission, : tha corporation
will .forward to Washington such in
formation as may be necessary, when it
haa been discovered what the real issue
is, and when the telegram announced
