The average stay of the guests was four days.' ' Baaing the calculation upon Mr. Bowers' figures, the result Is reached that Portland hotel guests spent In the city during the fair $760,000, of which 6300,000. was for living expenses and 1460.000 for extras. ' Mr. Bowers thought the patronage !' this summer was double that of a year go during the same months and that the Portland turned away at least 6.000 -. . persona who could not be accommodated.

Their average stay was about six days." Clerk Brlnstad's figures show that the Oregon's guests spent 1211.486, Of which half, I14S.141.I0, was for living ex penses and the other half for aouvenlrs and other Incidentals.

',, TAXES AVAILABLE FOR USE OF STATE OFFICIALS Attorney General of Montana Holds That Salaries Will Go ' Despite Lawsuits. (Special Dlapateh te The Journal.) Helena, MonU Oct. 1. The position of former Governor White, who ad dressed a letter to Treasurer Rice, hold ing that state warrants are illegal be cause they exceeded the constitutional limit Of Indebtedness (110,000) Is not well taken, according to the opinion of Attorney-General Galen. White warned the treasurer against paying any warrants, which had been Issued to the amount of 1560,000, and added that he purposed enjoining their payment. The treasurer asked the attorney-general as to his duty In the mat ter, with the result that an opinion was prepared stating that It was perfectly safe to pay the warrants, as all -courts, from the supreme court of the United States, have held that taxes levied but uncollected may be considered as cash la hand. Therefore warrants are not debt,. with in the meaning of the constitution, al though constructively debt Ths taxes amount to 1560,000 and will be received by the treasurer In December. Thus, even if the oourte sustain White's po sition, money will be available for state officials and current expenses within six weeks. i . ,:. - .;; Allen A 'Lewis' Best Brand.
