In the swine depart ment one pleasing feature is the judging arena in the center of the building. By a system of gates and runways every pen can be con nected with this arena, and all dan ger of escape is eliminated. For merly it was necessary to take the animal out ot the pen, and frequent ly the captive broke away and caused a lively chase around the grounds. The old stand for the judging of stock which served its purpose well but which In the new order of things would be useless, has been built into the goat barn. The poultry building has been turned half way around, toface the main walk to the livestock department, It will also be enlarged and remodel ed. Thus the dairy building poultry building and livestock barns, which would naturally be visited together, are all in couven ient and uniform positions. These are only a few of the changes taking place at the fai grounds. Minor improvements are being made everywhare. To get a complete idea of what Oregon s great fair will be the reader must visit the grounds for himself. Why not attend the fair, Septetn ber 16 to 21? It is an education in itself.

The barns are all set on concrete piers, and the lighting and ventila tion is perfect Of the twelve new barns, five are for horses, three for cattle, two for sheep, one for hogs and one for goats. Altogether there is an area of almost two and one-half acres un der roof. There are 69S stalls and 341 pens, making a total of 1040 apartments for the accommodation of live-stock exhibitors.

They claim their predicament is worse than that of the glass manufacturer, as the latter is about to run hort- banded, while they can not harvest without help. Much produce has already been lost and the outlook is that in a month from now vegetables of every kind will waste in the field, while in the market the highest prices will be paid.

Nearly normal temperatures pre vailed during the week. There were no hot spells nor any cold nights. The afternoous ' in the Willamette valley and in the north- eastern counties were sli?htlv warmer than last week, but else where throughout the . state there was scarcely any change from the temperature conditions of the pre ceding week. One or two days light thunder- showers occurred in the foothills of the Blue and Cascade ranges of mountains, but no rain of conse quence fell in the cultivated valleys ot the state, and the soil is getting dry and the roads are becomine very dusty. Owing to the protract ed dry spell a number of small for est fires have started and the atmos phere in the Willamette valley has become slightly smoky. There has been an abundance of sunshine. "Everybody Should Know" says C. G. Hays, a prominent busi. ness man of Bluff.

The folks down in liogue River valley know a thing or two, you bell "lean understand," Jonathan declares, "how Mr. Roosevelt feels. He it anxious to lay down the work. He would like a rest, lint, as I said, it ia not for him to say. The individual cannot dictate to the people ideal citizen-hip necessitates strict obedience to the sovereign will ol the people." Thus our hero, with the striped waist coat and the tanbark, senatorial slip pers insinuates that he knowt what ideal citizenship means and that he, too, is an ideal citizen. He is a tender hearted man. He feels for Teddy. But before all el. e, lie is a patriot a stern patriot and such trumpery fellows at Washington and Jefferson and Jackson even as Grant must pale their inef fectual fires and go iJwn in everlasting darkness before the Morning-Star of a Teddy!

The following Tualatin special is taken from The Oregonian of July 28: A meeting of Washington county Ponoma Grange was held at Tuala tin on July 34, last. Although this is a very busy time for the farmers, the attendance was good, even if a majority of those present were lad ies. Mrs. Clara II. Waldo, lectur er of the State Grange, gave a most excellent address, which added much to make the meeting both profitable and pleasant to all who were in attendance. Two resolutions were introduced and adopted, as follows: Whereas, The National Grange, the State Grange and many subor dinate granges, as well as the peo ple at large, have demanded the en. actment of a parcels post law, and Whereas, Those who are our re presentatives in congress have so far taken no action to grant this just demand of the people for relief from ! the extortions of the different ex press companies; therefore, be it Resolved, That the only way to obtain this much-needed relief is to demand from every man who may become a candidate for congressman or United States senator, irrespec tive of party, a positive pledge that he will, if elected to this responsi ble office, work for and vote for the enactment ol a parcels post law. Whereas, Under our present mode of assessment and taxation much valuable property is either not tax ed at all or does not pay its proper and just share of taxes; therefore be it Resolved, That Washington County Pomona Grange indorses the action of the State Grange in appointing a committee of five to investigate our assessment and tax ation laws and to create a public sentiment demanding that couuty assessors use their full powers to as sess all private and corporate wealth at a just and uniform rate. And be it further Resolved, That, in this connec tion, we especially commend the ac tion of the Washington county as. sessor in assessing the valuable tim ber lands of the county, which have heretofore borne but a small share of the tax burden, thereby adding a large amount (about 4,000,000) to the taxable property of this county.

Or., July ) People of Tillamook couuty, in the imme diate vicinity of Bay City, had a greater amount of curiosity satisfied Saturday afternoon than the inhabi tants of any other section of the state. The occassion was the arriv al of the barge Wallacut, which contained materials for the new rail road. Among the numerous things on the barge were the locomotive tender, ten-foot cars, a steam shovel and enough rails to cover six miles of track. There were also about 75 men aboard the Wallacut for the various construction and grading camps in this vicinity. Various ar ticles were in the cargo, such as dy namite, spikes, bolts, tools, hand cars and even hay and straw for the work animals. It was a great sight for many of the old-timers oi this section of the country. Many had never seen a locomotive outside of a magazine, and even the old-fashioned machine to be used for construction pur- poses aroused a great amount of in terest. The Wallacut, towed by the tug Samson, was sighted outside the bar a little before noon, and the news spread rapidly over the coun try that the long expected barge was coming. Idle spectators filled the wharf long before the hour of arrival. The Wallacut lay over the bar until 3 o'clock, when it was changed to the tug Geo. R. Vos burg and arrived in at about 4 o'clock. Unloading will begin at once, ard it is expected that it will take at least two weeks to finish. A tem porary track has been constructed out to the wharf and the engine and cars will be unloaded directly onto the track. Much grading has already been completed hereabouts and, with The story. of a man who tried to be a grafter and failed is told by James Hooper in the August Mo Clure's. Sorry as we are for the mau, who started out with some splendid visiou of reconstructing the Arabian Nights era as a second Ali Baba, and descended to merely holding down his job, like any plain American citizen, at the incidental sacrifice ot his life, the optimistic satire of the writer appeals to us greatly. This is one of the strong est stories James Hooper has ever written, and sheds an absolutely new light on the psychology of the white man in the black man's coun try.
