A Lesson From the Lewts and Clark
Fair.
The City ot Portland, Ore., is to
be congratulated on the fact that In
the highly successful Lewis and
Clark Fair, recently cloaed, it has
proved that by the exercise of care
ful forethought and good manage
ment it ia posaible to carry through
one of these national expoaitiona aa
a paying proposition, and turn over
a cash dividend to the stockholder
at its close. No doubt one secret
of its success is to be found in the
fact that the Fair was planned on a
scale commensurate with the pres
ent stage of development of the Pa
cific coast, and that a conservative
estimate was made ot the probable
number of visitors. That the gate
returns should have shown a total
admission af 2,5oo,ooo is a highly
creditable result, and particularly
so when we bear in mind that the
total population of tbe state in which
the Fair waa held is less tnan one-
fifth that number.
We have long been of the opinion
that these natioual expositions have
grown altogether too big and cum
bersome. Tb - -wo elements of bulk
and acreage, which have been bla
zoned as their chief glory, are really
their chief defect, and tbe bane of
every weary pilgrim that bss toiled
through their miles of boulevard«
and plazas, or plodded through
aisles of interminable length and
oppressive monotony. When such
Bobdingnagian buildings as those
of the St Louis Fair are scattered
over two square miles of territory,
it is clear evidence that the builders
have lost all sense of proportion; for
only a race of giants, striding ten
feet to our one, could cover such an
exposition with any degree of com
fort, or in any reasonable time.
If we make our future expositions
smaller, we can fill them with more
select exhibits. The commissioners
will be mote concerned about the
quality and less about the quantity.
Where such an enormous building,
for instance, as the Agricultural
Palace at St Louis is put up, it be
comes a problem bow to fill it; for
on a fioer space measuring 5 oo feet
by 2,000 feet, there are bound to be
whole acres of stock exhibits which
are simple repetitions of other acres
similarly tilled.
Nor are such vast proportions
necessary to produce the desired
architectural results. If the St.
Louis buildings and grounds had
b<*en scale-1 down nearer to the pro
portions of those at Portland, the
effects (landscape, architectural and
illuminative) would have been
scarcely less striking, and the
proper acquaintance and appreci
ation of them would not have en
tailed such mental an<| physical ex
haustion
Furthermore, a reduc
tion in the scale >f future world’s
fairs would not only serve to get
rid of many miles of stock exhibits,
such as may be seen in a day’s
walk through any large city’s busi
ness center, but it would bring the
first cost and operating expenses
down to a point at which ns in the
Lewis and Clark Fair, the custo
mary deficit would give place to a
caah
dividend.— The

Woman Attempts to Fleece Albany
Bank.
Albany, Ore., Nov. 1 . —A woman

and claiming bar home is in Pitts-
bnrg, Pennsylvania, attempted to

ssked to have a check on a bank in
