AHE SCORED INTERESTS BY JUDGE LOWELL Jurist Is Main Attraction on Excellent Speakers' Program at All-Benton Fair-Talks In Same Place Where Fulton Declared He Would Not Rvm for Office If De feated at the Primaries. (pedal OtopatcBi to Tha Joareai) CorralliB, Orw Sept. 5. Ilfere, wher Senator Fulton, on year ago and on a similar occasion, delivered the opening, speech of hla senatorial campaign, in ,whlgh he, declared'tie- fore a big audlemce that If defeated af the primaries bis name would not be allowed to go before the legisla ture for senator or any other office, Judge Lowell of Pendleton, delivered an address today In a tented amphi theatre, crowded with hundreds of people, at the All-Benton county school fair. . His text was "Oregon Problems," and the theme was large landholdlngs and excessive railroad domination, which, were set forth as a menace to the welfare of the state. The effort was the last of several speaking events during the three days' fair and was a feature of the day's exercises. The other exercises included a business man's parade, kind of music, the hum of spielers and the tramp of moving, thousands. . Judge Lowell's Speech. The Pendleton Jurist's speech made a deep Impression on the audi' ence. He said: Oregon presents a unique situation In olvio economics, and problems confront her people which do not find parallel In any other part of the union. She Is not a new state. Another year will -usher in the second half century of . her statehood. 8Kb possesses re source unsurpassed, and possibly not equaled among: the slaterhood of states. and yet in material development she They ld- laa Irt the rear rank.

In round numbers 6,000,000 acres of her area are held under the grant of congress made in the decade from 1860 to 1870 to rall- road and so-called military wagon road companies, while other vast tracts have been secured by the great lumbar and cattle- companies, and by railroad cor? poratfons through tha vicious lieu land act. it is probably a conservative statement to say that at least 7,000,000 Held waitnin ner Doun There are but two affective remedies 'which appeal to me as just alike to the owner or tna unaa ana 10 me state. first, an amendment to the constitution wntcn will permit the levy or special taxes for publio purposes upon lands idle and held for speculation; and, seo- ond, such constitutional modifications and legislation as win permit the state to exercise tna riant or eminent ao- main, condemn these, lands in the courts whenever necessary pay the owners a fair price for them, and sell hem to tne people email tracts, this pro cedure would place no special burden upon the state.

From the very beginning of our millinery business w have made it our policy to include, at our moderate prices, copies of, or im provements upon, the very styles for which the highest prices were asked in New York. We betran by demonstradnip that exact conies of the models of the leading Parisian artistes could bi sold at the price for American millinery.
