The apple fair to be held at Dallas
tbe coming fall will be an interesting
event Liberal cash premiums are to
be given and fine displays may be ex
pected. It is to be a county fruit fair
and the apples in competition must be
irrnvn in Polk County, except those
entered for a prize offered to nursery
men for tbe best new variety suited
for growing in Polk County. The
Pjlk County hills are especially well
adapted to raising prunes, cherries
and apples, and the money and work
expended on an annual apple show at
Dallas will in tbe end bring rich re
turns. Rural Northwest
William J. Clarke, tbe well-known
newspaper man or Gervais, has been
honored with the office of GraDd
Master Workman of the AncientOrder
of United Workmen. Brother Clarke
will give the order a live and capable
business administration.
Again the city council has tackled
the fire-limit question, and it is pro
posed to prohibit the construction of
wooden buildings on the block north
of the courthouse and the east half of
the block directly opposite on Main
street That reasonable fire limits
should be established, none will deny,
yet the question is one of the most
vexing with which city councils have
had to deal. Every citizen favors fire
limits, but he usually wants them to
cover some other roan's property. It
is hoped, however, that the present
council will take this greatly-needed
step, to the end that the appearance of
the town may be improved and the
danger of fire and accident lessened

Now Mr. U'lten proposes to draft a
law regulating the use of money in
political campaigns. Will it be en
acted? Of course it will. In Oregon
the state government Is divided into
four departments the executive, judi
cial, legislative and Mr. LT'Ren and
it is still an open question which exerts
th most nower. One fact must be
considered in making comparisons
That the Legislature does not dare to
repeal the acts of Mr. U'llen, the
executive has no opportunity to veto
them, and thus far the judiciary has
uphold all his laws and constitutional
amendments. On the contrary, air,
U'lten has boldly clipped the wings of
the executive and legislative depart
rnents. aud when he gets time will
(IniihtlfKB nut some shackles on the
Supreme Court. To date, the indica
tions are that Mr. U'Ken outweighs
any one, and perhaps all three, of the
other departments. Oregonian.

Clever Alinstrel Show.
The performance by the Dallas Lady
Minstrels, which was on the boanl3 at
Woodman Hall last night, was very
creditable. Especially good was the
chorus work and the efforts of the
end ladie3. The first part of the show
consisted of circle songs, duetts and a
quartette interspersed with jokes. This
was followed by a monologue and a
sketch. Lack of space prevents ex
tended mention, but on the whole the
young ladies gave a very good per
formance. The young ladies in the
circle were: Mrs. Johnson, inter
locutor; Miss Enna Smith, Tambo;
Miss Pauline Gohrke, Bones; and
Misses Edna Morrison, Georgia
Shriver, Emroy McDcvitt, Rebecca
