CITY: PARK
''AS A SITE
What Citizens Think of Fair's
.,. Location.
JTJLIUB MAYER. "I am heartily to
favor of the City Park as a Fair site
and X believe It Is ths only place for It
As far a elevation Is concerned In haul
ing freight, I think it would be more
trouble to haul freight to the' East Side
with the closing and opening ot the'
bridges than to the City Park-There Is
no use Improving somebody else's prop
erty when w can Improve our own. We
cap make lakes from the reservoir and
the Fair would simply be grand."
OWEN JONES, ot the Portland & As
toria Shipping Supply Company. "I thin
the City. Park Is the proper location for
the Fair; X better view of the surround
ing country can bs had from there than
front any of the other proposed sites.
Some of , the buildings erected can be
made permanent and with the Improve
ments put In the city will be ahead on
the proposition. By all means let the
Fair be held In the City Park."
H. G. GREENE, Treasurer of the Build
ing Trades Council. "The City Parkhas
no advantages whatever as a site for
the "Fair. The cost of grading ths
grounds for the buildings will amount to
more than the rent of any of the other
suitable sites.' By the time the grounds
could be placed In shape for the erection
ot the buildings and the necessary pre
liminary work is done for the improve-
ments, fully one-half million dollars
would be expended. It Is the worst site
of fell that have been proposed."
EDWARD HOLMAN. "Am I in favor
of the City Park? I should say not. They
might Just as well put the Exposition on
Mount Hood. I have visited large fairs
before, and my wife and I have found'
that before we had halt covered the ex
hibits we were tired and were looking for
a place to sit down. Now, If a person
gets tired viewing exhibits alone, what
chance will they have after climbing
hills to get up to the Fair? The only
place, In my opinion, for an exposition,
is on level ground easily accessible to
street car lines. The City Park Is no
place for the. Fair."
EL D. MoKEE. "I have always held
that Portsmouth, would nTffke an elegant
site, but It is too far away. The City
Park is the place. The view can not be
surpassed and we want to preserve at
least one of the buildings a a permanent
one: If the Fair goes any place alse, we
can not utilize the buildings for city pur
poses." D. M. McLATJCHLIN, Chief of Pollce.
"I have not looked.Jnto ths matter much
and am not In a position to speak on the
subject. There are many sites that I
could recommepd."
SUNDAY IN THE PARK.
To judge by the appearance of things,
those persons who remained at home
yesterday were in the minority, for near
ly everyone took occasion to take, some
sort of an outing. ' The City' Park bas
not seen a larger crowd for sometime.
The little folk clambered In and out of
the creaking- swings and the peals of
childish laughter added to the glad cho
rus of the happy birds.
The big brown bear took a plunge bath
In the hollow In the bear pit, and then,
after coming out gave his companions a
shower bath as he twitched bis loosely
fitting hide back and forth. One of the
black bears climbed up and down his pole
and threw himself flat upon bis back on
tha first platform, H.e thought, he was
the whole show. " '
The little monkey looked sleepy. The
flies bothered him, and he created many
a laugh as he made faces at bis tormen
tors and vainly tried to catch them In
his tiny black hands.
There was bad blood between ths coy
otes, and tuey put up several nasty fights
during the afternoon. Their flood of pro
fanity was painful to listen to, though
no one could presume to attempt a trans
lation of it
The porcupine was very reserved. He
kept his thoughts and quills to himself,
which was a good thing. The raocoons
trotted back and forth and snarled at
each other. The eagles preserved a dig
nified silence, while the owls grimly sat
upon their perches and looked wise. The
baby alligators drowsed through the long
afternoon, while tha squirrel did soma
acrobatic feats that excited the wonder
of the crowd. The clink -of the tin cups
at the drinking- fountain was continually
in evidence, and in paths ot pleasure
were lined with empty "pop" bottles.
Each person was out for a good tune
and evldeny did not care whether any-

suitable site for a building for the Rail
road Young Men's Christian Association
at Topeka, on the condition that the em.

Here is an opportunity for some gener
ous men to go good. The association, with
its organization for making life decent
and comfortable for railroad men, la an
element of real value in the railroad ser
vice. Obviously, It Is wise for ths Atchl
son to require the men to help to put up
their building. It will be much more ap
predated by them, and much more used
by them, it is thought, if they have the
sense of proprietorship which can only
come from the actual effort to raise cash
