OREGON PLAYS THE PART E THINK the Salem Journal goes pretty far out of its "way to criticise , the fair when -if says that' "there is no distinctively Oregon txhibit or display of Oregon's products as a state." It , v is true that Washington and California have fine build- t , .trigs and beautiful displays, but the purpose of the Ore gon building' has been purely social and that it has - filled the bill in that respect no one wiio visits the fair .vyilLdenjr.... It is a meeting , place, fo; all Oregonians. There they may keep engagements, met friends by ap '. pointtnent. and make themselves at home if they wish . to rest or recreate.- Meantime Oregon's exhibits are ; Veil taken'care of and make the impression which, those who planned them would most desire. ( Oregon is found all over the ground It has made no ' attempt to outdo all other states in it; own behalf. r It has had the good taste to give the t neighboring states - all the choicest building sites. Washington has in some 'respects the most commanding of all the sites on the ground and it has made the most oftt. California has . grandly taken advantage of its opporjnity and so have J daho, tJth, N ew York. Massachusetts, Missouri-nd . 1 the rest of them Oregon has ' justly ga,rded iuelf as the host of the occasion, c It has not only not interfered -with the various states making the very most jo ft heir opportunities-but-it has helpe(Lacbitetheir ambition. This .was precisely the part for it to On the heels of it all it makes a most satisfying ex hibition and in the lines in which it is strongest it easily holds its own against all competitors. . . , ' THE DELINQUENT TA LAW. : v SUBSCRIBER asks if the state can collect 12 . . per cent interest on delinquent taxes if this is - nof usury, and therefore illegal. - The state '. can" certainly collect, 12 per cent, - or any ! other per cent, efJnterest it chooses on. delinquent "taxes. There'is no prohibition against usury in the ' constitu- tion. Usurv is only, made illesral bv statutc.It, could 'i ! be repealed any. day by an act of the legislature., . . r, ..' The Journal thinks this ' penalty clause, of the, law js a good one. It exacts a penalty for ihe toonrperform ' ance of a public duty. - . ' V ' ' . ' : "' .

C Benedict the banker, a story to th other extreme Is -now going the rounds to the effect thst his' Ineome Is only 15,000 a year.
