Hie directors of the World's Pair linve again concluded to open uieiHir on nunmiv. The niunaircinont of thnnrnnnapil midwinter fair in Sun F have stated for the benefit of labor ers in other states, that there is plonty of help here already and that home labor will be given the pretoronce. 1 here never was a time in the history of the United States when a session of congress attracted so much attention in all parts and nations of the world as will this one to assemble on August 7. .. The ExpKKsg is glad to note the improvement that the city is mak ing in putting in new cross-walks in tho streets and alleys. They are aiso requiring property owners to fix up their sidewalks; this is a : mucn neeaea improvement. , . The Southern Pacific Express company, of Kentucky, Wells Far go & Co. of Colorado, as citizens of otner states, has hied a bill of eq uity in the circuit eourt ef Los An geles to determine the ownership of $5000 for the capture of the out law Chris Evans. The reward for the capture of Sontaghas been paid but the other reward is claimed by two sets of men. A newspaper man is in some in stances like other people. He res pects his friends, appreciates a kindness, and is always willing to return a favor. In another res pect he resembles his fellow men. He will not continue to pat a man on the back, tell what a good man lie is, and how much he has done for the town, and give him a free business puff every day, when the ma.i nut inn, mrougn personal prejudice or otherwise, continue to lo. in supporting the paper. In tti?r words he stands by the man ha aitfdtf by him. That is about -tie way of the woriu1, and. news - 3aper man can't be expected to be uo much different iron) other peo ple. Newspaper Man. Th following clinnina is from - an article Which recently appear ed in the Chicago News-Record wider the heading "Hival Fruit States:" ,, ,-It is not entirely a con test between California and Flori da.. The Pacific coast states are united against the southern penin sula, but they also keep up a live ly competition between them selves. Oregon is in the thick of it, with pears like pumpkins and prunes almost as large as footballs. Here are some of the signs over the department: '"Oregon the laud os the big red apples,' 'Peaches 174 inches in Oregon,' 'Roses bloom every month in Oregon,"No cy clones, blizzard" in Oregon,' Ore gon the home of the prune,' 'Two bites to a cherry in Oregon.' The visitor must not linger forany time within sound of the Oregon man's voice or he will become convinced that all other states are barren des prts compared with the balmy and prolific groves of Oregon." Last Thursday the city marshal sold a bay horse that had been tak en up in the city and advertised (with three notices stuck up) for seven" days which only brought $1.50. Now the city has been put to $5 expense in the sale of this horse and only got $1.50 out of it betides taking some man's horse away from him that probably needs it badly. It was only a few days ago since a farmer who lives within a short distance of this place had several horses knock down his fence and get out, and within a few hours the horses were taken up by our marshal, and when the farmer found his horses there was a bill of $16 against them which had to be paid before he could get his horses. Now such action as this will only drive peo ple away from our city. The or dinance should be repealed by the council and at once at that. This way of taking up horses and sell ing thein as they have been sold here by our city authorities is only ono way of Btcaling, to say the least of it.
