At the World's Fair, St. Louis, the hotel within the grounds is called the Inside Inn. The capitalists who built this famous hostelry will probably erect a similar building on the Lewis and Clark fair grounds at Portland. An Eastern exchange tells of a visitor to the St. Louis Fair, (probably Judge Sibley or "Uncle" John Castle) who timidly walked up to the desk and asked: "Is this the Inside Inn? And if so, is the proprietor of ihe Inside Inn in?" "Yes," replied the smart clerk, with a far away look in his eyes, "this Is the Inside Inn, and you will find the proprietor outside by the Inn's side. He has been keeping the Inn for several weeks. He tells me that once when he took an ocean voyage he couldn't keep his inside in, but that was inside Information, and he didn't intend to get it outside." "Alright." said the guest, "if this is the Inside Inn, we want to see its in side as well as its outside before we look inside any of the outside inns. If we like the Inside Inn's inside and outside better than we like the outside inn's outside and insido, we may bring our things from outside inside and stop inside the Inside Inn, be cause we won't have to go from the in side outside or come back from the outside inside when we're seeing the Fair, butcan remain inside or outside the Inside Inn, it being the only inn inside the grounds. The other inns are on the outside and furnish no more comforts for the guests inside or outside than does the Inside Inn with the exhibits close outside the Inn's side that is the Inside Inn's side. In ) ) But the clerk had fainted and fallen inside the Inside Inn's desk, and bell boys were hurrying with water for his outside and brandy for his inside, but in their excitement they got that which was meant for his inside outside and that which was for his outside inside."

The people of Dallas enjoyed a de lightful hour of song and story at the M. E. Church last Friday evening, it being the occasion of Miss Elizabeth M. Pollock's elocutionary recital.

"Portland people little realize how the state at large is growing in popu lation," said H. V. Gates, of Hills boro, who is in Portland today. Mr. Gates owns electric light and water plants at Heppner, Prineville, Klamath Falls, Elgin and Dallas and his business keeps him on the move throughout the state all the time. "I see houses going up by the score everywhere," he said, "and I should judge that the smaller oities of the state have grown fully one-third in population within the past year. Even a little town like Dallas, in Polk County, has a hundred new houses. This means a housing capacity of 400 persons added to Dallas, which had a population a year ago of 1500. The new houses are filled with occupants as fast Aa they are finished, and other new foundations are laid. "There is growth, growth, every where. In Eastern Oregon new farms are being cultivated on what have heretofore been sheep ranges, and the sheep are dally being restricted to closer quarters. Lands that were formerly considered 'scab' and worth less, except for grazing, are producing good crops under improved systems of cultivation, and the farmers are all prosperous."
