President Atwell's Address.
''' Mayor George T. Rodgers of Salem
welcomed ana extended tne rreeaom ox
the city to the vlnltors and spoke of the
rapid stride Oregon haa been making
In fruit growing.
The welcome of the board of trade
was given by H. B. Thlelsen, president
of tne saiem board ot trade, wno aiao
cordially r reeled the visitors. v
He was followed by Homer C, Atwell
president or the State Horticultural so
ciety, who made a felicitous address and
expressed his sincere conviction that
Salem la to be to Oregon what Dea
Moines is to Iowa and Lincoln to Ne
braska, not only the capital city of a
mighty commonwealth but a center of
culture, of manufacture and commerce
and that the time was near at hand
when no transcontinental railroad reach
ing to the Paclflo northweat would con
sider its system complete without a
line into BaJem.
The value of such exhibitions and
fairs was then alluded to by Mr. At-
well. He said that they stimulated the
production of better fruit by offering to
f rowers higher standard of comparisons,
hey promoted immigration by advertis
ing the resources of a section, and they
attracted buyera by informing: them
where the better fruit waa "rained and
where it could be obtained in large quan
tltlea.

ESCAPED CONVICT IS
"The unparalleled prosperity of the
past -few years," aald he."-has so stim
ulated production and development, In
all lines that the damand for labor
greatly exceeds the supply. This con
dition is general throughout the country
and bears with special severity on the
fruit grower, for the following reasons:
He cannot secure sufficient labor at any
reasonable price; he cannot offer steady
employment throughout the year: he
cannot afford to pay wages which other
Industries are willing to pay; his pro
duce comes on with such a rush and in
such a volume that he must have a
great excess of labor within a limited
period or lose his crop."
Mr. At well, who Is himself a prune
grower, said that last year Xh prune-
f rower of the Willamette valley lost
0 per cent of their crop simply for
want of sufficient help.
The Coolie Solution.
"This state of affairs Is likely to
continue indefinitely, especially on this
coast, which Is expected to furnish lum
ber for the whole country from now
on." he continued. "A possibility of
relief has been suggested in the adop
tion of the system long in successful
operation in the colonies of the British
empire, whereby tne government un
dertakes the importation in limited
numbers of foreign laborers under con
tract to work In agricultural pursuits
only, for a limited number of years,
and under government espionage and
regulation such laborers to be returned
to their homes at the expiration of their
term of service. The adoption or this
Dtan would apparently be out of har
mony with our political System.'"

been done jointly by the street railway

stand that they will also cooperate in
strengthening the approach to the

to be done at once.
"What Is as much needed as anything
in connection with the improvement of
the bridge Is a new sub-structure. The
anchor caps have been uaed so long that
they catch the draw and a number of
times have prevented Its Immediate
opening. Then In Its loosened condition
Its expansive qualities have become
prominent, and thla also tends to retard
the swinging -of the draw span.
"Another dangerous feature about the
bridge ia the draw rest. This rest has
been In use for the past 15 years, and
that portion below the water Is just
about rotted away. Although no minute
examination has been made of this por
tion of the bridge, I believe that it la
weaker than generally supposed."

Judge Charles E. Wolverton heard
arguments in the United States circuit
court this morning relative to the mo
tion asking that the fine of $1,000
Lgainst the late Senator John H. Mitch
ell be -.abated and paid to the creditors
of the estate.
The question Involved was, in effect,
whetner a fine could be biassed aa a
debt. The arguments were made by
United States Attorney William C. Bris
tol and Thomas G. Greene and hinged
for the most part on a decision by Judge
Holt In a New York case, wherein a
man had been fined 16,000 and his ee
tate sought and secured an abatement
after hla death, which occurred before
tne tine was paid.
The fine was assessed against Sena
tor Mitchell In 1906 as part of his pen
alty in hla conviction for appearing as
attorney before federal land offices.
David M. Dunne, administrator of the
estate, allowed the government's claim
and paid the fine, but since the decision
of Judge Holt brought an action to re
cover the money for the creditors.
Judge Wolverton took the case under
advisement.

did not know if the meaaage came from

better not do anything until the circum

he was called to Chicago, and left the
