The opening ceremonies and demon
strations were on a scale commensurate
with the greatness of the day. They
were carried through without a hitch
of "any consequence. Old exposition
attaches, who have attended the im
portant world's fairs of the past de-
ade, declared they had never before
beheld so pretty or so effective an
opening.
The attendance passed even beyond
xne most sanguine official expectations.
Crowds, such as have never before lined
the streets of Portland, saw the great
military pageant that preceded the
opening exercises. , Standing room on
the three miles of streets was at a pre
mium. And when the parade was at
an end this ocean of humanity turned
its tide on the exposition grounds. r
Across Guild' 8 lake on the peninsula
a section of Artillery tolled off the pres
idential salute of 21 guns, the dark
blue smoke from the cannonading lift
ing slowly above the government's pal
ace and adding enchantment to the
peaceful grandeur of the inspiring
landscape to the north.
This salute brought on the opening
exercises. All of the speakers were en
thusiastically received. Especially
cordial was the reception accorded the
nation's representatives. The exercises
were marred by no unpleasant incident.
So orderly - was everything that the
- heavy detachment of policemen and
guardsmen were not put. to the neces
sity of issuing a single admonition.
It was exactly 12 o'clock to the dot
when President H. W. Goode, of the
exposition, called for order. It was
hardly 2 o'clock when President Roose--velt
was informed by wire that all was
ready. The president was in waiting
for the message at the White house.
The -great crowd leaned forward in a
state of high nervous tension waiting
ior the first peals ' of the government
chimes, which were to lave been Presi
dent Roosevelt's first response. But,
lucklessly, the chimes failed to work,
and after a full minute of breathless
waiting, the assemblage was informed
by Mr. Goode that the president had
sent his greeting. At the same time
lie declared the exposition formally
opened and extended a greeting to all
the world. President Roosevelt's con
gratulatory telegram was then read
and received with tremendous ap-
.plause. .
There was apparently almost as many
(people at the fair grounds last night as
"were present at the opening exercises.
Although the exhibits buildings were
closed, the exposition by night seemed
in every particular as great an attrac
tion as during the open hours of the
'day. '
When' darkness fell upon the heights
that raise beyond the fairy city the
Teason was plain.
t As a feast for the eye the spectacle
'was incomparably beautiful. The
fireworks which were a feature of the
evening, were beautiful in the extreme,
but they paled before the splendor of
he electricity. " '
Fair Practically Complete.
Director of Exhibits H. E. Dosch,
"wno nas been through a number of
large expositions, was asked yesterday
how this one compared with others as
far as its completeness on - the opening
day goes. He said: "It is more near
ly complete than any. exposition to
which I have been, even Omaha. It is
a very rare thing for an exposition to
ton so nearly finished on the opening
day. What incompleteness there is
does not detract from the exposition
proper, and will be remedied in a few
days." ':.;.
Unparalleled Record.
That the business record of the pre
exposition period is unparalleled in the
history of expositions, is the statement
,of Director of Concessions and Admis
sions John A. Wakefield. Yesterday
he gave out the following statistics:
Concessions department Concessions
revenue collected, $76,414. Receipts
General admissions, $27,222.50 ; com

Two Revenue Cutters Here.
There are two revenue cutters now in
port. The Russ arrived shortly after
dusk last evening and dropped anchor
in the stream above the Bumside street
bridge and just astern of the cutter Mc
Culloch. The Rush was on her way
from Seattle to San Francisco, when
she received orders at Port Townsend
to stop at this city. She will remain
here for some time and will then pro
ceed south.
RIPE FOR A REVOLUTION.
Feeling Against the War is Running
High" in Russia.
St. Petersburg. June 6. Conditions
are, indeed, ripe for an uprising
throughout Russia which will be of a
widespread character. At the Pavlovsk
concert-hall last night a gigantic dem
onstration was held, at which a dozen
prominent sneakers, throwing riifwre.
tion to the winds, denounced the czar
ana .tne government for continuing a
strurarle which conlri nnlv reflnlt. in the
nation being plunged deeper into debt
ana m xne useless sacrince of thousands
of loyal subjects.
The - excitement was intense and on
order bf General Trepoff, the police at
tempted to clear the building. A free
fight followed, , in which the police
used their whips and clubs, but the
excited people fought back, and for a
time it seemed that they would gain
the mastery. "
The crowd was eventually dispersed
when soldiers arrived on the scene and
threatened to fire. "
The officers of the guards regiments,
who have been sent to outlying bar
racks to instruct -the reserves, have
openly revolted and refused to do their
work. A number of "them have been
placed under arrest and are likely to
be shot this morning.
From all over the nnnnt.rv nnme re.
ports of anti-war meetings which the
police have been powerless to suppress.
Only the official class favor the, contin
uance bf hostilities, and the pressure
in favor ot peace is very strong. It is
reported that several reeimente of re
serves at Sevastopol and Odessa have
mutinied ana openly defied tneir offi
cers. Trouble is looked for here dur
ing this week unless some steps are
laiten to placate tne malcontents.

RUSSIA STUPEFIED
Cannot Realize-Damage Inflicted
by Japanese Fleet.
TALK OF PEACE STILL SCOUTED
Will Fight Another Land Battle, and if
That is Lost She May Then
Ask for Peace.
St. Petersburg, June 1.' The Rus
sian admiralty is literally stupefied " at
the extent of the disaster suffered by
Vice Admiral Rojestvensky's fleet, and
its own advices paint the situation in
even worse colors than the Tokio dis
patches. c
The Associated Press Vladivostok
dispatch received at an early hour yes
terday afternoon accounts for only two
ships of the great Russian fleet the
cruiser Almaz and the torpedo boat
destroyer Grozeny and the absence of
news about the battleship Navarin and
the cruisers Oleg and Aurora, which
are the only fighting ships of any
value not enumerated in the Japanese
lists of destroyed or captured, and
whfch, up to 4 :30 o'clock yesterday af
ternoon, had not reached Vladivostok,
renders almost idle any hope that they
were able to shake off the pursuing
Japanese cruisers and reached the
shelter of the iortress at Golden H rn.
Russia has agreed to disarm and in
tern the big fleet of colliers and trans
ports sent to the Chinese coast when
Rojestvensky determined to try" to
force the Straits of Corea. It is be
lieved here that the . Admiral did not
want to be hampered by a big convoy
in the sea fight, and the decision to
send the convoy to the rear . compelled
Rojestvensky to .adopt the' shortest
route by the way of Tsu island, as some
of 'the ships could not carry enough
coal in their bunkers to steam around
Japan. : - -
The question of inaugurating peace
njgotiatiojs is hot likely to be opened
until full reports of the Russian dis
aster have been received. The war
party continues its defiant attitued,
and declares that peace is impossible,
while many Russians who heretofore
have been in favor of peace, but who
are now humiliated by the sting of the
defeat of their navy, are giving their
voice in favor of a continuation of -the
war. Nevertheless, the peace party in
sists on the absolute futility of prolong
ing the struggle. Ever slow to reach. a
decision, it is improbable that the gov
ernment .r will decide on the course it
will pursue until after battle has been
joined in Manchuria. '-.-?'"
The Associated Press . dispatches in
dicate that Field Marshal Oyama is
already in motion and that a grand en
gagement is imminent. The govern
ment still predicts the publication ot
losses in. ships not contained in its own
advices, but so far as St. Petersburg is
concerned the truth is known.

KING CHRISTIAN IX. OF DENMARK.
M.?118 Christian IX. of Denmark, who recently celebrated his eighty-seventh
birthday, has been called the grandfather of Europe. His eldest daugh
ter is Queen Alexandra of England. His second eldest is the Dowager
Duchess of Russia, mother of the Czar. His third daughter Is the Duchesa
of Cumberland, her husband being a. son of the ex-King of Hanover. His
eldest son will succeed to the Danish throne, while the second son is King
George I. of the Hellenes. The remaining son. Prince Waldemar, was offered
the principality of -Bulgaria, but wisely declined.
King Christian is one of the most beloved monarchs in Europe and la
extremely popuKr In Denmark. Despite his age he retains the elasticity and
bearing of a young man. He has been reigning since 1863 a period of forty
two years. Our illustration is taken from the Illustrated London News and

In -connection with Irrigation enter
prises, and to enlighten the large
number of settlers who. know practic
ally nothing about the application of
water to the .soil and to growing crops,
the San Francisco Call discusses the
quantity of water allotted to a given
area of irrigable land." Taking the
States as a whole, the quantity per
acre used in California is about 50 per
cent of the Colorado average. This
would appear ,to convict Colorado of
needless waste, but as the nature of
the soil and the kind of crop irrigated,
together with rainfall, are factors in
the problem, it is not safe to conclude
without careful "comparison. This is
now going forward at Fort Collins and
at other experiment stations under the
general control of the Agricultural
Department Experts connected with
pump and machinery houses in this
city are also collecting data, this be
ing the natural result of the installa
tion of plants in different portions of
the State, on different soils and for the
care of different crop's.
It has been stated by one of the en
gineers In charge of Federal work in
Nevada that a miner's Inch of water
would Irrigate 500 acres of land. This
Is not the Colorado experience. Even

Expert Iilpplncott quotes conditions
at Xuma and in the Klamath district
of California. His allowance for
Yuma, If we understand him correct

which is not quite three-sixteenths of
an Inch per acre. That is a very thin
sheet of water to spread upon land in
a region where the evaporation is
twelve or fifteen feet per year. "We
doubt very much," says the Call,
"whether It will sustain growing crops.
If he means that a miner's Inch flow
ing constantly for ninety days will suf
fice for an acre and a half, we have
this result: In an acre and a half are

Exnerin-iAnta tha rM
that land requires about three feet of
water during the growing season to?
produce a crop. This is averaging all
absorptive conditions of the soil and all
rates of evaporation. Italy, in the
valley of the Po, has long established
a scientific Irrigation, and the aver
age duty of water is one cubic foot
per second to about sixty-six acres, in
continuous flow. But Italy on the
same land has a rainfall of between
thirty-five and forty inches, of which
twenty-two Inches falls in the season
of growing crops. So the irrigated
land of Italy gets about 130 Inches of
irrigation water and twenty-two Inch
es of rain, or a little over twelve feet
in the season of crop' growth.
This feature of the irrigation prob
lem deserves close attention, because
it Is basic in the matter of dividing up
lands. The settlers should know in
