The way to build up Dallas is to pat ronize Dallas people. THE STATE FAIR. The state fair will not be moved from Salem to Portland. There would be little excuse for a change of this kind. Salem, the capital of the state is the ideal and only place for a state fair, just as a county seat is the legitimate location for a count v fair. Those who favor the removal urge that, as the fair has been a financial failure for the past two years in Salem by reason of non attendance, if it was held in Port land the population of that city would guarantee a large increase in the annual gate receipts. There is no question but that Portland people could, if they would, swell the re ceipts to such an extent that there would be no financial loss, but there is no assurance that they would do so. It is pointed out that Salem people attend the fair in much larger numbers than Portland, even al though attractive rates are offered the latter city and favorable train schedules bring them to the gates of the fair with little or no inconven ience. It isn't the cities, however, that makes a state fair a success. It is the rural communities and Salem stands as favorable a show to attract (hem as would Portland. The writer remembers an attempt . i i i. 1 1. once made in ieurasKa u mini- un state fair from Lincoln, the state capital, to Omaha, the larger city, on just such a plea as that put for ward by the Portland boosters at this time. The fair had been run ning behind ami it was urged that, with its removal to Omaha, this de ficit would be wiped out and much greater attendance would result. Well, the fair was moved and. at great expense grounds were prepar ed and buildings erected in Omaha to handle the exhibits. The fair was an Omaha institution for exactly two years, if memory servo and, at the end of that time, it was deeper in the hole than before. So hack it went to Lincoln, and has since been held there where it has become a permanent fixture. Figures showed that t lie attendance at the fair while held in Omaha was not so large by several thousand, and the experiment was a failure in every way. It is admitted that weather con ditions have been unfavorable during the past two years, and that rain hay greatly interfered with the attend ance. With a year of line weather the attendance would undoubtedly increase sufficiently to make the in stitution self-sustaining in its pres ent location, and the slate would not be put to the needless expense of carting it around in search ol the people. For a half century the state fair has been indelibly associated with the history of Salem and any move calculated to take it elsewhere would be ill-timed and its outcome problematical. 4- KNOCKING THE NORMAL.

The main trouble with the Leader j editor appears to be that the state! decided to centralize its activities in! one normal rather than to distribute; a meagre appropriation among three ; institutions. We confess that we are not' familiar with that light, but we; believe that one institution properly ! recognized, equipped and supported j is far better than three poorly paid and inadequately supplied normal schools and the people of the state j who desire to take advantage of their, facilities will derive much greater ; benefit thereby. President-Elect Wilson is credited ' with saving that he believed a man the ,lo- from the central west would ue niorejanu (lf jrossi capable to handle the affairs of the j lawmakers, interior department than one from the Pacific coast states. In other words the ghost of the Ballinger Pinchot controversy appears to be bothering the coining Democratic chief executive. Mr. Wilson should not be disturbed by this nightmare. If he wants a suitable head for the treasury department, he selects some man familiar with those duties, and his attorney-general must be one who has shown himself capable to fulfill the requirements of the office. To fail to carry out this idea all down the line, and especially in the selec tion of his secretary of the interior, it to admit that possible political ex pediency rather than assured compe tency is the fundamental require ment for position in the Wilson cab inet. Surely if there is one depart ment, of the government which needs the services of one entirely familiar with actual conditions, it is the Messenger forgot to mention that , placer gold, individual in it.s elimination cam-; deep mines. paign.
