One ol the gieatest wheat belts in the

view of all the country penetrated by the
O. R. & N. lines, and they will be true
to nature, and there will be samples of
soils and the staples they produce. It
will be a handsome and valuable ex
hibit. Hon. J. C. Thompson, ex-representative
ofMorow county in theOregon legis

The Dallea Public schools opened thia
morning with a total enrollment of 636
pupils. On the first day of last year the
total enrollment was 611, while in 1896
it was 575. The total "enrollment in the
high school is 73. Although the total
over last year is only 25, still the in
crease shows plainly the steady growth
of the city and everything goes to ehow
that in a few weeks the number will in
crease wonderfully as there are
always a great muny enrolled later in
the school year.
Today the petition to set aside the
lease of the Hood River Lumbering com
pany is being considered in the county
court. It appears that the company has
a lease on the stream to nse the same for
the purpose of floating logs down to their
mill. A new corporation has been or
ganized which is endeavoring to secure
a lease on the river for the same purpose
in order that they may put in a large
mill at the town of Hood River. W. H.
Wilson appears for the petitioners while
Huntington and Wilson appear for the
Lumbering Co.
Contracts for material have been let
and all necessary arrangements made
for resuming work on the construction
of fortifications at Fort Stevens. A bat
tery of mortars and several larger guns
had just .been mounted there when the
Spanish war broke out. Now the fortifi
cations are to be extended by the addi
tion of a second section, for the accom
modation of Eeveral more large guna.
Just -what is the extent of the addition
to be made to the present fortifications
it is impossible to ascertain, for those
who know will not tell; bnt it will be a
work of some magnitude, and it is un
derstood that a further addition will be
made in the future, and the .fortifications
at the mouth of the Columbia will
ultimately be very formidable.

PRESS DELEGATE'S DESCRIPTION
OF THE SCENES.
A. Delightful Clrcnlt From Kpakace to
Denver Via St. Paol and .
Ouiaha. -
Denver, Colo., Sept. 6, '93.
Editor Chronicle :
In the courseof human events.ODd oth
ers not worth mentioning, we have at last
arrived at the beautiful city of Denver,
which is now fairly pressed with news
paper people, about 400, including a por
tion of the Oregon delegation, haying
arrived on the special car yesterday
morning. Of the many sights to be seen
in thia city I will not now apeak, nor of
the workings of the convention, but
must say something in regard to our trip
here.
After attending the meeting at Spo
kane, through the kindness of the Great
Northern we were permitted to make a
round-about trip, and thus embarktd
for St. Paul, the journey taking three
days and two nights. However, eo in
teresting was the trip that we did not
realize its length. Stopping ut St. Paul
a day, we viewed the city, calling upon
A. G. Tucker, agent of the Northwest
ern, who received us cordially, and learn
ing that we were anxious to take in the
exposition at Omaha on our way, grant
ed ua transportation to that place. This
route down was one of the pleasantest
we have had, and we arrived on the ex
position grounds at 10 o'cicck on the
morning of the second, where we met the
Eastern delegation, composed of about
350 editors and their wives, from every
state in the East, North and South,
among them severa1 from Boston.
The latter delegation evidently thought
the Oregon people a portion of Buffalo
Bill's show (which we are to see tonight),
but the gaze of wonder finally changed
to one of admiration (ahem !) as they re
marked : "You young ladies must have
as good educational facilities as we of
the United States."
As to the exposition, where we spent
twodays.it is immense, the grounds
consisting of about eighty acres,
and covered with the mqt beautiful
structures, which are patterned after
those of the Columbian exposition. To
describe them would be impossible; but
we must mention the Lagoon, which,
when fairly ablaze with electric lights,
is beautiful in the extreme.
The Oregon exhibits are creating quite
a sensation, the one in charge cf Mr.
Doech, of Portland, where is found a fine
display of Oregon woods, is attracting
throngs of people constantly. Our flax
exhibit ia among the finest displayed on
the grounds, and ia surprising everyone.
But I wish 'to mention especially our
fmit exhibit in the horticultural build
insr, over which Mr. Courtney, of Port
land presides. While he la doing hia
beat and has a good display, especially
Our Fire Sale is still on. All goods
from 25 to 50 per cent reduction.
Noxt Door to Land Office,
J. H. CROSS lias removed his store to the Vogt
Block, next door to the Posl office, where he will be pleased
to greet his many iormer patrons and a liberal share of new
ones. For CHOICE FAMILY GROCERIES, HAY,
GRAIN and FEED, SEEDS and FRUITS, &c, your
orders will receive prompt attention, and will be sold at pop
ular prices. Call and see him.
Qet Your priptirj
in prepared fruit, or that in jars, I was
positively grieved to find that Oregon
people had so neglected the freeh fruit
exhibit, especially the fruit men of Hood
River and the vicinity of The Dalles.
The peaches, plums and pears found
there are but a fourth as large as we see
daily in front of any of our fruit stands,
and although some prunes sent from
Malheur county, and good for that eec
tion, were only a third as large as ours,
they attracted much attention and were
greatly praised.
Much could be done in the way of ad
vertising Eastern Oregon, aa thousands
of visitors are on the grounda every day,
If our fruit men would only take a little
interest and send a few boxes of our de
licious "fruit, the freight charges upon
which will be paid. All they would
have to do would be to ship them to
Levy & Speigel, of Portland, who will
forward them, giving credit to the sender
and the section from whence shipped.
Mr. Courtney asked me to urge them to
do so.
We met several Portland people on
the grounds,, who took the poor wander
era in and piloted them around all
around, showing them all the sights of
the Midway, which, by the way, is an
exception to the usual midways, being
free from any objectionable features, ex
cept it be the "barkers," who to me are
more interesting than the shows.
We were fairly tired out Monday
morning and our eye-balls were resting
on our cheeks, while our mouiha stood
open, when we joined the editors, and,
in the special car, came over the C. B. &
Q. to Denver, where we are baying a
good time, of wbich you will hear later.
