THE CORVALUS GAZETTE, TUESDAY, MAR 17, 1903. THE BURDEN OURS. The Lewis and Clark Exposi tion is essentially, and of right ought to be an Oregon enterprise. Thif, not because the whole Northwest and California will not be greatly benefitted by it-, not because California Washing ton, Idaho( and the Montauas may net give the suppoit we haye a right to expect from them, but mainly because the idea of holding such a Fair was an Ore ton idea in its birth, and because Ft is to be held in this state. We do not complain that the work and a heavy portion of the expenditures necessary to create and conduct the enterprise must fall upon our slate and peopV. While it is altogether probable that other states will reap as great benefit from the enterprise as we shall, yet it is viewed as an Oregon scheme and we must accept it as such. Our people must be in earnest, energetic and enthusiastic in their support of it. We have made a good be ginning, but we must not flag nor lag in our efforts while there remains anything undone to carry the project to certain success. It is not a Portland enterprise; it concerns the whole state even more than it does Portland. The people in every section ot the state not only should, but have a right to regard it as a state en terprise, for half a million dol lars of the people's money, money put up by the tax-payers of the state, are involved. While all should labor in earn est harmony to accomplish posi tive, helpful purposes, there are things of a negative character which must be borne in mind, especially by those controlling the Exposition. i4Thou shalt not," must be de dared against every measure and undertaking, in. connection with the fair, or because of it which may savor of any degree of mis- representation, imposition or ex tortion, mere -will be many opportunities for hotels, lodging houses, restaurants and shop keepers to practice extortion. The spirit of greed and desire of extraordinary profit will be alert for its opportunity, and must be promptly repressed. Portland must provide ample hotel accom modations and insure the stranger entering her gates of just, even generous treatment. Just now there is a scarcity of dwelling houses in Portland and rents are exhorbitantly high. This con dition should not be permittedtto exist during the year of the Fair. The resources of the state, its climate, soil, productions, mar kets in brief all the conditions of life and living in Oregon should be set forth truthfully and comprehensively. All over-coloring, all indirection, all mere artifice must be frowned down by every possible means. It is not beyond just suspicion that at tha present time there are those amOng us who regard the immigrant as fair game to be plucked and fleeced at every turn. There is scarcely any doubt that there are human har pies in the real estate business. These creatures seek gain from both seller and buyer. They do not own a foot of property nor represent a dollar's worth of any interest in the state. Their methods are essentially selfish and dishonest. They place fic ticious values upon property and then by misrepresentation induce purchasers to accept them. Let those having property to sell employ reputable agents or none. Iet no one attempt to create "a boom" in values, but rather let every one demand only just and reasonable prices for what he would sell, and look to what Henry George called the 'unearned increment" to supply a portion of the" profit he seeks. If the Exposition is to be made a success, if the state is to domi cile a large and desirable immi gration, now or at any time, we must be carefully honest, fair and just, even liberal in our treatment ot those who contem plate becoming citizens of . the state. Anything else will injure tis beyond measure. IT SEEMS NECESSARY. When asked bir a reporter of the Oregonian, "Will you resign from the legislature?" Senator Daly replied: ''I have not con sidered this question. If it is necessary to resign I shall do so, but I shall do so with regret, be cause all my arrangements here tofore have been with a view to ward continuing to represent my county in the state senate." Mr. Dalv's constituents will regret no less than he to lose his services to this county, but they rejoice with him in his indi vidual good fortune. . Article II, section 10, of the constitution of this state, leaves little doubt that a senator will have to b: elected from this county to succeed Mr. D Jy as so n as he qualifies as survey or- general. It reads, 4 'No person holding a lucrative office or ap pointment under . the United States, or under this state, shall be eligible to a seat in the legis lative assembly; " If, then, it is necessary to choose a senator from this county to fill out the term for which Senator Daly was elected, it will be in the interests of economy to elect that officer next June, at the same time a congressman is chosen for this district. Hon John D. Daly, of this city, has received the unanimous endorsement of the Oregon dele gation in congress for the posi tion of surveyor-general, to suc ceed Henry Meldrum. Mr. Daly has the ability and exper ience to fill the position as ac ceptably as any man in Oregon. He has executive capacity, and is a practical surveyor. These are tne essential qualifications necessary to a right conduct of the office. The salary is 2,000 per annum. Straggled Home. The delegation from O A C to the oratorical contest at Eugene, did .not reach Corvallis on the home trip until Saturday even ing. - They were to take the early morning northbound passenger to Albany, and catch the after noon C. & E. for Corvallis, but a wreck on the S. P. delayed the morning train several hours. Tram No. 15, southbound passenger from Portland, crash ed into the rear of a freight train at Walkers, 17 .miles south of Eugene, and three lumber cars, a caboose on the freight, and the engine of the passenger were badlv damaged. This delayed the morning: train to Portland. eight hours. -The Corvallis dele gation did not reach Albany until after 5 o'clock in the evening. Professor Horner had telephoned to Albany for a soecial train to take the delegation to Corvallis, This train was found in readi ness, but those holding return tickets, good on the regular after noon train, -were told that they would have to pay fifty cents ad ditional to ride home on the spec ial. A number objected, and hired livery rigs to bring them home. They reached here about 10 o'clock Saturday night. The special arrived at 7 p. m. Heal Estate Transfers.
