Governor Gooding today designat ed September 7 as Idaho day at the Portland exposition. It is the inten tion to make the day the occasion for a large gathering of Idaho people at the fair. Spokane's league team defeated the Lewiston Normal school ball team this afternoon by a score of 12 to 0. Spokane's Indians proved to be a fast bunch, and were playing hard Dan from the first to the last inning. According to the statement of E. I. Crawford, formerly president of the Northwestern Accident Insurance company, of Everett, Y'aBh., that In stitution has gone out of business and will probably not Issue another pol icy.

The Illinois building at the Port land fair will probably be a replica of Abraham Lincoln's home in Springfield, III., and In It will be seen much of the furniture which was used by the Lincoln family when they left Springfield for Washington, in February, 1861, and to which Mr. Lincoln never returned. Who will be appointed by Governor Chamberlain as state engineer when the Irrigation law passed at the last session goes into effect In May? Ru mor has It that J. H. Lewis, one of the force of reclamation men now here may be given the honor should he desire it. Under the provisions of the set the engineer Is appointed by the governor upon the recommenda tion of the director of the geological survey, and usually In such cases the reommendation is made upon the suggestion of some subordinate offi cer. In this case It would seem that the division engineer, John T. Whis tler, should be consulted. Should such be the case it would seem that Mr. Lewis Is in a good position to se cure the appointment, provided he is given the endorsement of his present chief. Inquiry yesterday revealed the fact that Mr. Lewis Is not a candidate for the position of state engineer. In fact, under the rules of the service he could not be an applicant without first resigning his present position While there are many attractions about the state appointment, besides the salary of $2400 per annum for four years, there are doubtless some disadvantages also. In view of these and the fact that he already holds good position in the reclamation service Mr. Lewis is said to have no great desire for the appointment though, of course, he might accept It were he named for the place. The following from the act creating the office of state engineer shows the duties of that official: He shall have general supervision of nil the measurements, and records of appropriation, of waters of the state, and of all surveys and engineer ing work In which the state may be interested, and for which funds are provided, and shall perform nil work In connection therewith. He shall receive a salary of $2400 per annum and actual and necessary traveling ex penses while away from his office in the discharge of official duties, and shall not engage In private practice. He may employ assistant and pur chase materials and supplies neces sarv for the proper conduct and maintenance of his office and depart ment, in pursuance of appropriations as made from time to time for such purposes. The salaries and expenses of the of fice j,f the state engineer shall be 'paid at the same time and In the same manner as those of other of ficers of the state. , The office of the state engineer shall be located at the seat of government In the capitol building. The state engineer nnd his authorized agents and assistants, may enter upon any private property for the performance of their respective duties, doing no unnecessary injury thereto. The state engineer shall prepare and deliver to the governor, on or be fore November 30th of the year pre ceding the regular session of the leg islature, and at other times when re quired by the governor, a full report of the work of his office, including a detailed statement of the expendi tures thereof, with such recommen dations for legislation as he may deem advisable.
