ROOSEVELT ENDORSES FAIR In His Mestage to Congress He Rec ommends the Participation of Uncle Sam in Exposition. Seattle, Dee. 10. Now that Pres ident Roosevelt in his message to Congress has endorsnd the partici potion of the United States govern niont in the Alaska-Yukon-Pacific Exposition, the management of the l'JO!) (air will carry on a campaign to secure the early passage of the appropriation bill. Henry IJ. Reed, director of exploitation, has gone to Washington to open up . head quarters to circulate information in regard to the plans and objects of the exposition. Later on a com milteo composed of officials of the exposition and ptoraiuent men of Alaska and the pacific Northwest will go to the National capital to present the exposition's case before Congress. The fact that the expobition man agemont has pledged itselt not to accept a loan or a gift from Uncle Sara is endorsed in President Roose velt's message. This, it is thought by the officials, will Lave much weight with Congress. The sec tion of the President's message re ferring to the Alaaka-Yukon-Pacific Exposition is as follows: "The courage and enterprise of the citizens of the far northwest in their projected Alaska-Yukou-Pa-ciGc Exposition, to be held in 1900, should receive liberal encourage ment. This exposition is not sen timental in its conception, but seeks to exploit the natural . resources of Alaska and to promote the com merce, trade and industry of the Pacific states with their neighbor ing states and with our insular pos sessions and the neighboring coun tries of the Pacific. The exposi tion asks no loan from tho congress, but seeks appropriations for nation al exhibits and exhibits of the Western dependencies of the gen eral government. The state of Washington and the city of Seattle have shown the characteristic West ern enterprise in large donations for the conduct of thia exposition, in which other states ore lending a generous assistance." Work ou the exposition grounds is progressing rapidly. Most of the grading for roadways, avenues, plazas and circles has been finished, and the grounds are enclosed by a fence. The contract for the erec tion of the emergency hospital has boen lot aud the structure will be completed within the next few weeks. Contracts have been grant ed for four large buddiugs which are to bo finished within six months. They are the Fine Arts palace, Aud itorium, Machinery Hall and the Manufacturers building. The three first will be permauent structures, beiug built out of buff brick with terra cotta trimmings, Most all of the exhibit palaces will be classic in design as far as modern usage will permit. After the fuir the permauent buildings will be used Ly Washington Uni versity upon the campus of which the exposition will be held, for col lege edifices. The Arctic Brotherhood, an order composed of men who have been in Alaska and Yukon, will erect a building costing $25,000. The she has been selected and plans for the structure are now being prepared. -During the exposition the building will be used as club house and will contain an exhibit of ourios and relics of the Northland. After the fair it will be turned over to tho Washington uuiversity for the uso of students from Alaska and Yukon. William Jennings Bryan, in a letter to Henry E. Reed, director of exploitation, heartily endorses the participation of the United States governmtut. E VISITS Booster Meeting Held With Commercial Club of of This City Resolutions Adopted Favoring University Appropriation. ARRIVAL YEU. Lone County Lane Eugene Have you ever ever seen Anything to beat Eugene? No, ne....ver. RESOLVED, That this joint meeting of the Cottage Grove and Eugene Commercial Clubs put itself on record as unanimously favoring the appropriation for the University of Oregon, as being absolutely es sential to maintain the required high standard for the University, be ing as it is the leader of high school and common schools throughout the St'ate. And be it further RESOLVED. That the press of Cottage Grove and Lane County be asked to give due publicity to this resolution. "Boost shoulder to shoulder for the upbuilding of Lane county" was the spirit manifested at the joint meeting of the Cottage Grove and Eugene Commercial Clubs in this city Friday evening. Following an afternoon ot sightseeing at the poultry show, the four score buei ness men of Eugene were enter tained at the rooms of tho local club and a genuine lovefeast en sued. Speeches were made by the visitors and by the members of the local club and throughout the spirit of working together for the benefit of the county prevailed. The visitors bad arrived in the city late in Ihe afternoon. They were met at the statiou by a dele gation of Cottage Grove business men and headed by the Eugene Military band all proceeded to th rooms of the club. They made a procession nearly two blocks long. First thing in the evening the visitors aud their band went to the poultry show, where musio was dis pensed to the accompaniment of lusty crowing and cackling. Pro fessor Dryden, of the Oregon Agri cultural College, delivered an ad dress on a subject of iuterest to chicken fanciers. Upon repairing to the club rooms late in the evening, the visitors were welcomed by F. B. Phillips in behalf ot the Cottuge Grove Com mercial Club, the citizens of that city and the officers of the poultry association. Response was made by C. S. Williams, vice-president of the Eugene club. Other Eugene delegates speaking were: Dr. Paine, D. E. Yoran, Manager, Haitog, County School Superintendent Dil- lard, and W. W. Calkins. II. O. Thompson and Geo. Comer, of Cot tage Grove also spoke. AH the re marks were aloug the line of boost ing for the benefit of the whole county. UNIVERSITY VALUABLE TO THE STATE Superintendent Dillard in his talk had mentioned the worth of the Uuiversity in the educational sys tem of the state and when Superin tendent Alderman, of the Eugene schools was called to the floor,' he made a strong talk in favor of sus taining the appropriation bill toi FINE BIRDS. One of the handsomest birds in the show room was the White Mi norca cockerel exhibited by Tom Awbrey, who received the bird from Everett, Wash., a few days ago, paying a high price for him. Tom feels proud of bis blue ribbon and score card in evidence of bis efforts, aud be hopes to produce some fine show birds the coming season from the pen he exhibited, all of which made good records in the show room, and came from hens with heavy laying records. E PARTING YEU Chickens, rooster Boom and boost'er Cottage Grove is alright too. Who's alright ? Cottage Grove. I the University of Oregon. E. O. (Potter and II. W. Thompson of Eu- gene, and Tom Awbrey of this city icantinued remarks ou this subject. The sentiment expressed was ap preciation of the value that the Uni versity is to the state in fretting a high standard, not alone for the woik of the high schools, but also for all the primary schools as well. It was pointed out that the primary schools are supported by the coun ties and school districts, with the I aid of money from the sale ot school lands, . while practically ho other source of income than the approp riation made by the Btate. Mr. Alderman compared the $125,000 asked for the University with the $600,000 given by the state of Washington to its state in stitution. Mr. Awbrey introduced a resolu tion covering the subject, which, after being ameuded ' was unani mously passed. The subject of the resolution is given above. Darwin Bristow was the last of the visitors to address the meetiug, and Dr. Paine then called for the . "parting" yell that Cottage Grove wus emphatically "all right." It was given with a will, and rather surprised the hosts. The Eugene band thereupon struck up "For He Was a Jolly Good Fellow," and President Phillips thrw open the doors leading iuto the culinary de partment, whence coffee and re freshments were brought in'o view by some of the city club members. The meeting adjourned iuto a regular love feast, and at 11 o'clock 84 happy but hoarse visitors climbed onto the special train awaiting them at the depct and started for home, alter onoe more assuring Cott'ge Grove that she was "all right " And thus came to end a success ful harmonizing effort, oven though it was undertaken on Friday, the 13th. The manager bought 13 rail road tickets, paid for 13 meals and at the evening concert one comet artist from Cottage Grove joined the 12 Rugenians, making 13 musi cians in all. But the sun shone brightly, and there was no hoodoo in the mauy 13's of the day. Eighth Grade Examinations.
