An ex position in Portland in 1927 rather than in 1925, to be ft nanced by a city tax levy of $3,' 000,000 contingent upon a II, 000,000 stock subscription in the enterprise secured prior to Octo ber 1, 19!J. This summarizes the essential amendments In the fair plans that wra nresented to the city council at a meeting; last evening called n nam nnon aereral measures that are to be referred to the peo ple at the general election, me mirnr and commissioners will take final action on the exposition reso lution at a meeting called lor mis morning at 10 o'clock. Its saop- tion is assured. The reason for the postpone ment nf the date of the exposition and the date when the stock sub scription must be completed was clearly stated by Mayor Baker. Tf deTelons that the managing committee of the proposed exposi tion xfter a careful analysis of conditions, came to the conclusion that It would be impossible to se izure the million dollar stock sub scription to the enterprise by De cember 20 of this year, which, would be necessary under the plan to hold the exposition in 1125. This conclusion followed a cursory canvass of sources from which large subscriptions might be forthcoming, and without which large subscriptions the fu tility of underwriting the requi site amount within the two months was apparent. At the same time full cogni zance was taken of the obligation owing the people of the city and state by the managing committee to afford them an opportunity of expressing their opinion on the project at the November polls. The amended resolution leaves the naming of a commission to ad minister the funds of the exposi tion, be they authorized by taxa tion and raised by stock subscrip tion, to that body. The act as originally drafted for submission to the people named Ernest Olm stead, Edward Cooklnghatp,, John C. Ainsworth, Ira Powers and Nathan Strauss as members ot the commission. i ,, TWO INDIAN MAIDS CSfiAPE Alvira Ferris, 1, an'd 'Mary Paul, 14, yesterday evening es caped from the Chemawa,, Indian school, according to reports made to the police.

LIBOR DEMAND, SUPPLY, ABOUT EQUAL IN SALEM For the first time In several weeks the labor supply and de mand in Salem are about bal anced, according to Police Judge Earl Race, In charge ot the muni cipal employment bureau. For some time there were not enough men to take care ot the demand but recently there nas been an influx of transients and these men have taken care of the surplus. For the remainder of the winter there probably will be plenty of men for the work to be done, Judge Race said this afternoon.

Prices have been annihilated, terms have been lowered to a point dangerously near rental. But I have made up my mind to close out this entire stock and do it at once, so I decided to leave no obstacles whatsoever for anyone desiring a Piano or Phonograph. My business has grown to such an enormous volume that I have to rebuild it almost entirely throughout the interior. The only way this can be done is to get rid of every single instrument n ow on my floors and I am going to do that very thing regardless of price or terms. .NOTE -THE FAMOUS MAKES, PRSCES AND TERMS $400 l'iano l now T , $89 0 II ' " 1 ' " v Terms only $5, $5 a month This beautiful new $050 Player Piano and 10 rolls of music and bench. $395 T erms $3.00 a week.
