The Salem Dally Statesman dls cusses the affairs of tlio state fair on tcrtalningly, making some disclosures of great Interest and heretofore tin known to the general public, as fol lows: Is the Oregon stato fnlr open to prl vato purclmso? That is the question soon to be rals ed If tho proceedings proposed by tho stato board ot school land commls slonors against the Oregon state board of agriculture, usually known as tho Mate fair board, are carried out. In order that tho general public may see what, tbeso proceedings are, and may lend to, It Is necessary to give here a brief resume of the history ot late years of tho Oregon stato fair issoclatlon. In 1885 the old Oregon Agricultural Society, tinder whose auspices a state agricultural fair had been held for a number of years, getting In a very bad way financially, went before the lcgls latlve assembly and secured an appro priation from tbe general funds of the stnte for the purpose of assisting in Its maintenance. Things not going prosperously with the association apparently, It was de cided to fund the outstanding Indent' edncss of tbe old association, and a general loan was made from tho school fund of tho state, for this pur pose. This fund was then and is now under the charge of the state land board noted above, and they loaned tho society the sum of $11,000, at 8 per cent Interest for one year. This was on December 29, 1894, and the loan was really the outcome of tho 'hard times" period through which everybody had just gone. A year later tho board of managers was notified that the amount loaned was due, but as no funds wero In sight with which to pay It back, the matter rested. In statu quo. This con dltlon ruled year after year until 1899, when the board found Itself in pos session of 'a depleted exchequer and $7,000 of additional Indebtedness hanging over It In the form of "war rants on the treasury" Indorsed "not paid for want of funds." The legislature was again appealed to In 1899, and an appropriation made to pay the warrant Indebtedness, but the stato required that the lauds bo deeded to the stato of Oregon, which was done. A now board of fair man agers was then appointed known as the Oregon state board of agricul ture, of five members, and this same organization still rules In the fair management. The transfer of tho fair grounds to tho state was made subject to tho mortgage, so the condition Is now that tho state of Oregon owes to tho school trust fund the sum of $11,000, with nearly $9,000 additional Interest. The stato of Oregon, trustees, repre sented by tho stato board of school land commissioners has made various demands on tbe state ot Oregon, as represented by the state board of agri culture for tho payment of tho above sums without result. As Secretary Wylie A. Moorcs said yesterday: "We admit that the demands havo been made on the stato board of agrlcul turo for the payment of this sura, but we do not admit having paid It, The reason Is wo have no funds available for this purpose and tho legislative assembly should have mado tho appro prlation to cover tho amounts Into the school fund." "The stato board of agriculture has no funds nor income," suld Secretary Mooros, "from any source except gate receipts and concessions, and thoso together with the annual apnronrla' tlon are necessary for tho support of the fair. Tho $10,000 appropriation can oo used lor no other nurnoso CX' copt tho payment of premiums, and tho other revenues are necessary for the payment of expenses. Thus you seo why nothing has been dono in this matter. The land belongs to the state and the stato owes the money, ana except a specific annronrlation be made for Its payment, I don't, see now u can no aone." Now the stato land board has In structed the attorney general to In vestlgato tho matter and seo if the hoard can foreclose tho mortgage. At' torney General Crawford said yester day that ho thought proceedings would iiKely bo commenced soon, and of course, under such proceedings, un less tho legislature should sten in and appropriate money for tho purpose of uuying tho lands and paying the mort gage, tho property would havo to go to mo niguest bidder. It Is admitted that if tho stato could buy tho land for a valuation In excess of the amount of the mortgago It could pay the mortgage. If the school board should take, thn lands In, it would have to do so for the face of the mortgage, which Is more or less $20,000 now. Tho lands, which contain nbout 160 acres, are easily worth thirty to thirty-five thous- ana aouars, so Salem's citizens can seo what a menace this will be to tho stato fair. Tho stato could not buy the property from the general or stato fair fund .without further Instruction from the legislative assembly, and a sale would mean that It would go to private parties. Is tbls tho first step toward moving the stato fair to Guild's lako? Note. Those Indobted to me for wood and coal will please settle the same by July 6tb, and save cost. P. P. Collier.

Most Wonderful Railway In the World Which Was Built at a Cost of $500,' 000,000. There can bo no doubt that tho credit for being tbe most wonderful railway In the world fairly belongs to the great trans-Siberian Hue, which carries passengers from Central Huh Bla to Vladivostok and Port Arthur, on tho Cblluesu coast of tho Puelllc, says tho Waverly Magazine. It Is C450 miles from Moscow to Port Ar thur and the train accomplishes the Journoy In 14 days, so that a person may now travel from England to Ja pan by this route In less than three weeks. As everybody knows, this lino Is a very Important feature of tho sltua tlon In tho war on between Ilusslu and Japan, and, Indeed, without It Itusslu would find It next to Impossl ble to conduct a war against her cne- my. For tho time being it Is used for nothing but carrying troops and munitions of war, and tho mail serv ice which began only a few months ago has been temporarily stopped. This lino of 6460 miles has cost tho Russian government ovor 100.000,000 pounds to build. No fowor than 70,' 000 men wero employed In construct' Ing the chief section ot 3742 miles ncross Siberia. In making tho bridges and carrying out various other works as many us 104,839 tons of cement wero used, and 9,000,000 sleepers and baulks of timber wero employed in laying the rails and In erecting the houses and station build ings. To provide all this wood more than 100,000 acres of forests had to bo cut down. There wero 800,000 cu bic fathoms of sand as ballast. Weak Hearts aro caused by Indigestion. If you eat a nttio too much, or If you aro sub jeci u aiiacxs oi inuigesiion, tno stomach expands swells, and puffs up against tho heart. This crowds tho heart and shortens tho breath. Rapid heart beats and heart dlsoaso Is the final result. Kodol Dvsnonsla Curo digests what you cat, takes tho strain off tho heart, cures Indigestion, dyspepsia, sour stomach and contrib utes nourishment, strength and health to every organ of tho body.
