Letter from Salem.
Salkm. Oct. 2. 1872.
The S'aeFair is in f.i M operation. Noth
ing is heard on the streets but '-all aboard
for the Fiiir Grounds.'' I hav visited
the grounds and find that the agricultural
and slock interests -are !! represented
this season, belter than they have been
fur years past The floral and fruit de
partim - nts are a!o well rt-prtened. UUi-
er industries up to this time, sire not as
largely exhibited as they have been here
tofore, but I presume to day will make
qui le an addition to domestic articles. The
stock on exhibition by Mr. S. G. Heed, is
superior to any heretofore on the grounds.
and is the center of attraction to all vis-
itors i s)a ,!ot attens-pt to give a do

until next week. The attendance so far
has not been as large as formerly, but the
crowd is continually increasing, and to
day it is much larger than the two pre
ceding. The Legislature is working away on
various bills, and if one half the work is
completed which has been thus tar intro
duced, I .'-hall be much lnisiukeii.
Among the most important measures
thus far introduced, is a bill lor the State
to lease ihe Locks at our city. 1 have not
seen a copy of the bill yet. but from what
I have learned, it seems to me to be a just,
and meritorious measure ; one calculated
to protect the people from any future dan
ger ol being ji laced in d;e hands of a one
man power. If 1 can get a copy of the
bill it shall appear in this issue of the Kx-
TtlUMMSK
Our contest is to be reported to the
House thi alteinoon. ami before this let
ter is rea 1. will be decided either lot or
against us. The minority of the Commit
