Said George H. Hlmea, curator and aec

It abould be appropriated for the his

wae with the understanding that this
elauae would be carried out that the bill
passed the legislature. .-';:'
"I make' this atatement candidly, for
I know whereof I apeak. Under all

that the only thing for the fair corpora

of the city providing the , city council
would grant a lease of the ground. He
did not anticipate any trouble jo .securr
Ing a location, providing he wae suc
cessful In scouring, the .'. money lwlth

"We need a home for the Oregon His

Is 'not half room enough for our exhibit
In our present headquarters. - The

them cannot be. seen -and. but -little of

as the work of this - organisation -Is
growing- so rapidly thst It cannot be
conducted in the preaent quartera - ,
"'t)ur' library is the most valuable of
Our, .exhibits, and It will continue to
grow In importance. We have suf
ficient material in this department alone
to fill all the spsee we hsve In the city
hall. There la much other valuable ma
terial which I could secure at' any time
but have' not for the reason that we
have no place to put It It will take
a commodious building' for our needs
