The attractive display was the more remarkable -by reason . ( the fact-that the exhibits had been gathered on only a few, days' . notice, and, hence' repre sented only the average run of the products. ; "A doeen prises' were awarded, Edwin Engelstad capturing first, J. J. Peter son second, and John Lovegren third. The othef nine were for special exhibits. An Idea of the possibilities of tht soil that a few years ago fed huge for ests may be gained, from the fact that the exhibits included ten varieties of apples, five varieties of potatoes of ex cellent shape and slse. Immense pump kins carrots, rutabagas, kale, onions, radishes and even celery. Fourteen pound cabbages clean and sound throughout were among the finest of the exhibits, and the cauliflower was such that none could be grown to great er perfection. Corn showed splendid results, with three varieties, sweet, common and popcorn, on display. The fruit display included a large number of beautiful clusters of grapes. An ex pert grape grower, who visited that part recently, pronounced the soil and cli mate splendidly adapted to grape cul ture, and many of the settlers figure on engaging more extensively In this industry. The show was attended by a number of Portland and Vancouver people. Dur ing the afternoon a literary and musi cal program was presented, in which a number of Clarke county officials par ticipated. A new schoolhouse has just been erected in the colony. A modern saw mill was Installed some time ago, and, as a result of the convenience in get ting building material, a number of pret ty and comfortable residences are un der construction throughout the colony, the population of which, during the last two years, has grown to about 260. DIDN'T TRY TO PROTECT L! To tha Editor of The Jourlnal. Quot ing me in reference to the public levee of Portland last Saturday, The Journal said "stockholders of the Oregonlan Railway of Scotland got all of their money back." I did not say that; what I said was that all the bondholders (not stockholders) of the Scotch Railway got back their money from O. P. Huntington- at par or face-value in cash. I never triad to protect the Bcotch stock holders. Why, should I? They and the directors sent to Oregon an Irish bar rister to institute suit against me, then nam'ed Robertson, (now called Lord Loebec, for services to the British lib eral government as an Irish home rule member. ) In this suit he made certain charges to the Oregon supreme court, which after giving him two separate trials, taking evidence and hearing his argu ments personally at Salem, wherein he asked that I be made Individually liable for $56,000 to 160,000. Judges Watson, Lord and Waldo therein decided 'that the appellants' claims, those of the Or egonlan Railway Limited, "to be itself indemnified by William Reld seem to us equally devoid of equity. There Is no ground, however, in the evidence for imputing to Reid either neglect of the Interests of the appellants and its pro moters or any sort of misconduct or bad faith by him throughout the entire transaction." In conclusion, I wish to state, that C. P. Huntington said to me: "Your P. & W. V. railway is the tall which wags the dog (the Oregonian railway). I don't want to buy the dog (dregonian railway) unless I get the tail with it Your P. & W. V. line is built to the public, levee now and I own both roads." Hence he said, he cheerfully paid cash value for all of both companies' railway bonds and afterwards trans ferred them to the Southern Pacific company. WILLIAM REID.

B. Stuart. A. B. Stuart, the first bailiff in a court in Portland, and a pioneer of 1(49, was appointed bailiff of the grand Jury this morning by Circuit Judge Morrow, presiding Judge, in place of Richard Delch, who was removed by Judge Morrow Saturday for political reasons. Mr. Stuart Is approaching his eighty-fourth year and has frequently acted as a bailiff. For 1 4 years he held the position under Judge Shattuck and he served many of the other well known Judges. He came to Oregon from San Francisco and made the trip from an eastern home in 1845 by way of Cape Hern. Judge Morrow Expects to Pass on Wood Charter Ballot Controversy. Judge Robert G. Morrow of the circuit court announced this morning that his ! decision as to whether City Auditor Bar bur should be mandamused to place the Wood short charter on the ballot In com petition with the official commission plan charter would be handed down to morrow. If Judge Morrow orders that the Wood charter be placed on the special election ballot November it means that he recognizes as law the statute passed since the adoptlqn of the Initiative and referendum which requires that the city auditor must place on the ballot any and all Initiative measures which the council has Ignored or has refused to submit. He strongly Indicated Satur day that such would be his decision. 11 he says that City Attorney Barbur need not place the Wood short charter on the ballot, It will mean that he rec ognizes as law that portion of the state constitution which, together with tha McNary ordinance, provides that the city may prescribe the manner and -form, of submitting measures to the vote of the peqple, and that in the case of Port land the preferred manner is to have the council say whether measures shall be submitted or not The position of the Wood charter advocates is that when 15 per cent of the voters have signed an initiative petition to submit a measure to the electorate, it must be submitted.
