In the district scarcely need to make an
exhibit of lumber, whore nature ex

Hut this and other staple lines have not
been neRlected. though no attempt has

So It is with coal and snlinon, and with
manv other things that might be men
tioned, for this is a country of diversi

The presence of the state Alaska
Yukon exposition commission has grat
fled the management, and particularly
gratifying has been the announcement
by Governor Chamberlain that he will
urge the use of Cons county lumber In
the construction and fitting of the Ore

next year.
Marshfleld is taking on the fair spirit.
The hotels are filled, a procejwlnn of
strange faces is seen on the streets,
the glad hand Is being extended and a
limited quantity of fakers and "hqw

FINISH NEAR AT HAND
IN SCHOLARSHIP CONTEST
'As It has been definitely decided to
Close the Oregon Journal's third annual
1 Scholarship contest Saturday. September
12. at 1 p. m.. it behooves the students
" who are competing for scholarships to
take advantage of the short space of
time that remains. In future the score
will appear in The Journal on Wednes
days and Saturdays until the close of
the contest, and the contest manager
; would like to have all contestants make
their reports twice each week In time
for record on the days specified.
Owing to the large number of schol
arships available it will be impossible
to award them all, and the awards will
; be figured on the same basis as In for
mer contests. In other words scholar-
ships to the number of two thtrds of
the number of contestants in each dis
trict will be distributed. This is not
pnly a fair but a very high percentage.
SS 2-3 per cent of the actual number of
students In each district. This means
that one third of the contestants now
competing will be out of the running
when the final score shall have been
completed, so that it is essential to get
out and work tooth and nail until the
last hour of the contest.
If those students who are now leading
rest on their oars on the presumption
that they have a safe lead they will
lose their positions easily. For Instance
If the seventh, eighth and ninth on the
list in district No. 1 should surprise their
competitors by polling a large enough j

The Right Rev. Charles Scadding.
bishop of Oreeon, and Mrs. Scadding,
returned to their home in Portland yes
terday. The bishop went to England
to attend the Pan-Anglican congress
in June, and the Iambeth conference
in July of bishops of the Anglican com
munion from all parts of the world.
The Lambeth conference meets once in
10 years-at Lambeth palace .the Lon

Bishop Scadding said:
"I am very nihil to lie home as-ain
and have had a very pleasant trip, and
the privilege of attending inspiring nd
Instructive conferences which took Into
consideration various questions affect
ing the welfare of God's people anLj
the work of the Church of Christ In;
divers parts or the world. The de
hates on all questions were far reach
ing, and the bishops realized that Cie
links which hind the Kplscopal church
to the historic past are not fettera
upon tne free and enterprising splilt
wlihli Is -.senilal tu progress. The
sectarian spirit was distinctly absent,
and the predominant thought in the
minds of the hlshops was of the church
as ordained of God fur the service of
mankind.
The subjects under discussion were:
"The Reunion of Christendom," "Or
ganization In the Anglican Communion,"
"The Moral Witness of the Church to
the Problems of the Day," "Ministries
of Healing," Religious Education,"
"Supply and Training of the Clergy,"
"Foreign Missions" "The Faith and
Modern Thought," "Marring!? Problems."
etc. On all thee subjects, after full
and lengthy debate, resolutions were
passed, which wi.l he printed and pub

number to place them fourth, fifth and
sixth on the list It will be seen that the
latter will be set back three places, thus
losing their chances for scholarships,
although the percentage of scholarships
is large. It will be seen that even the
present leaders are liable to be set
back before the close, as no doubt those
who are behind will double their efforts
from now on In order to come within
the winning zone.
All returns must be made before 10
o'clock Saturday night. September 12.
Letters, however, mailed September 12
and bearing the postmark not later than
10 p. m. will be received and credit
hi for all subscriptions enclosed.
Any orders handed in at The Journal
office after 10 p. m. that night will not
be counted In the contest, so that it
will be well to thoroughly understand
these conditions. Ignorance of which
will excuse no student.
With the finish in sight no doubt
every student will endeavor to finish
at least within the winning range. The
next score should see some good work
from everv district, and from every
worker, with only 14 working days re
maining there Is no time to be lost. Py
retting down to strenuous work at once
hose who are at the bottom of the list
can overtake many of the others.
Those who now occupy positions
which give them a chance to win schol
arships better beware lest they will be
overtaken and lose out towards the
close of the contest. The heaviest scor
ing of the whole contest should be
made from now on.

HQRTH EIIO ISSUE
Ordinance Providing for Ex
tra Policemen Is Sidetracked.
Members of the clfv council fln.-ill
woke up yesterday ttfteiiMion In regard
to the north end question, and Coiiu-I!
man Kellaher Int tod need an ordinance
appropriating $4,0(1(1 to pn v the sal.irlea
of 10 additional policemen. Mnvor I.ane
told the rouncllmen, wlun asked point
blank by Councilman Cellars. Hint he
would close the houses if thi-v passed
the appropriation for 10 additional po
licemen. The councllrnen wanted the mavor to
come out and say whether he wanted
the policemen or not. ami he did lie
said that If the councllniini voted the
policemen he would close the houses
There was much skillful fi-m-lug ulili
words yesterday, and ih. alt. nipt of
the council to dodge all responsibllltv
In the question was amusing to the
spectators. Kvery nietho.t the conn, II
men could think of was used to entrap
the mayor in some Hecrmnglv gutb-less
mi'lh, but he always came back with a
little mrsh of his own which he threw
over the heads of the councilnien
Councilman Cellars stood un and de
clared that there was no effort to do I
political harm on htn part, and thut he j
was entirely sincere In his speech He ,
said that he wanted to assure Mavor,
Lane that he had Ids support in the
pending question, and that If the mayor
wanted the policemen to say so and tha.t
he would vote for It. Councilman Cel
lars was only one of Tii councllrnen, but
Mayor Lane did not dodge the issue
with him and said thai if the council
passed the ordinance he would close the
nouses.
Instead of passing the jirdtnanee the
council adopted a resolution Introduced
by Bennett, in which the council as
sures the mayor that It stands ready at
all times to uld him In the enforcement
of the law and to furnish hint all the
assistance he may require.
Mayor Lane assured the ooiinollmen
that If they gave him the extra police
men that he would have every house In
the city closed within lo days How
ever, Mayor Lane as well as the council
men doubted the wisdom of such a
move. He said that the effect of such
action would be to scatter the houses
to all parts of the city, which would
require the efforts nf one sipiad of po
licemen. He said that these men would
have nothing else to do hut to keep on
the lookout for houses of this kind,
which would eventually be found In
every part of the city, including the
resident districts.
It is expected that no action will he
taken In the matter until thejiext meet
ing of the council.
