Captain Clark Writ to tior. (leer anl
KxpreAe III Gratitude.
llccently Gov. T. T, (Acer sent a letter
to Captain C. E. Clark, who was in
command of the battleehip Oregon on
her famous cruleo from San Francisco
around Capo Horn to Cuba, and at tho
historical battle of Santiago bay, when
the Spanieh fleet under Admiral Cer
vera was destroyed, notifying him of
tho sword which would be presented to
him by tho people of Oregon, and in
viting him to come to Portland to re
ceivo the same. The sword, which is
to bo purchased by popular subscription,
is to bo one of tho most magnificent
weapons ever presented to an officer of
the navy, and Governor Gecr expressed
in his letter his earnest wisli that tho
brave commander, wiio had made the
name of Oregon famous throughout
tho world, would do the state tiie honor
to como here. Monday the governor re
ceived a letter from Captain Clark,
dated at the navy yard, League island,
Pa., as follows:
"My Dear Sir : Your highly esteemed
letter, informing me of the great honor
the people of Oregon wish to confer
upon me, has been received. I am truly
grateful and wish I could appropriately
express my feelings for what they have
dono and proposed doing for me, more
especially as I shall not be able to accept
your kind invitation to visit Portland
and visit the friends who have already
placed me under the deepest obligation.
With the sincerest thanks to them and
to you, I am very respectfully and grate
fully yours, C. E. Clark, captain U. S.
N."
In view of the fact that Captain Clark
can not come to Oregon to receive the
handsome gift intended for him, the
committee having the matter in charge
will doubtless arrange to have the same
presented to him, with suitable and
appropriate ceremonies, at the officer's
station in Pennsylvania.

Poit-
Ye bhall Know Tliem-Hiwln't We Uetter
Exhibit Ourt.?
While so many of the Eaetern Oregon
cities, many of tliem smaller than The
Dalles, are yearly holding fruit fairs, and
thus not only advertising themselve3
and the country about them, but givinj
the people of their counties a place to
spend their vacation week very pleae
antly, our attention has been called to
the fact that our own town should be
doing something in this regard. Our
buBiuess men are beginning to talk the
matter up, and some substantial results
may tollow. Arm again it may enu in
talk as trany other rchemes have done.
However, if there is any hope of such a
proposition materializing, it should re
ceive the Bupport ot all.
In other years our people tiave looked
forward to the fair which lias been held
each fall ; but this had developed mostly
into a racing meet instead of an agii
cultural and horticultural exhibit aa was
at first intended. No place in the state
has a better opportunity for making a
fruit fair a success than has The Dalles,
surrounded by such orchards and in a
position to obtain the best of exhibits.
Interspersed with these could be added
neat and attractive advertising exhibits
by tho different business houses, which
would not only be an advertisement but
an attraction. Then it would be neces
sary to have music eacli evening aud
some specialties, either local or fiom
abroad, which exp?nse could be met by
charging a nominal entrance fee. Thus
such an affair would be a splendid tiling
for our city, bringing to it the people
from all over Eastern Oregon and afford.
ing them inexpensive pleasure. If
managed so that it could be held in Sep
tember, any who might care to attend
thti exposition in Portland later could
do so, going on down from iierp.
To launch such an affair it would of
course require a few hundred dollars,;
but in time, if properly carried on, it
would bo self-sustaining, and those who
had placed money into tho enterprise
could be repaid in part at least.
Somo of our citizens have thought it
might bo well to attempt a fair next
month; but to our mind it is out of
the question. Possibly by tho latter part
of October it might be iu readiness were
all to push it along. But iu no less time
could it be sufficiently advertised
throughout the country, and on that
hinges its success. Tho preparations
would not lequire so much time, but
there are other matters to be considered,
It would be a splendid idea and liven
us up somewhat. We will surely hiber
nate in a social way unless we bestir
ourselves.
