at the tate Department that Irish

stantinople, finally, has returned a sat

as to the complicated questions whiea
have, been the subject of negotiations
between the Government of the United
States and Turkey for ; several years.
He has ' concluded successfully - this
phase of the work and has been grant
ed a leave of absence.
The principal difficulty experienced
bv Mr. Lieiahman was due to the Im
possibility of finding ; any Turkish
officials with whom he might do busi
ness, properly authorized. He would
enter into an arrangement with one of
or another of them, and these arrange
ments would be - disavowed by the
Grand Vizier. ! After several exper
iences of this kind, Leishman cams into
communication with the Sultan himself
and the latter upon hearing of the
manner in which the Minister had been
obstructed in his work, issued a sum
mary order that all arangements en
tered Into by him with subordinate
officials should be carried out in good
faith. - -" .

to look after tne nnal arrangements
for the Fair, and they will remain here
until the close of the 1.902 meet. They

The live stock snow especially prom
ises to be exceptionally good, as breeds
will be on exhibition that were never

ever in the past. Especial attention will
be -called to the county exhibits, eight
in number, and representing every pro

year, with the big purses, and the at
tendance of the fastest horses in the
West, will prove adrawlng card never
before had at a fair in Oregon, and will
aid .In bringing thousands to the State
Fair that .otherwise, would star away.
The Portland Telegram or last ssaiur-
day. In speaking of the State Fair, has
the following interesting article:
"Portland Day. at the' State Fair,
opening a week from Monday v promises
to be one of the banner days or tne
Fair from point of : attendance. Not
only has the Southern Pacific announ-
ced the extremely low rate of $1.50. for
the round trip, which includes admis
sion to the Fair Grounds, but the sec
retaries of the Chamber of Commerce,"
Manufacturers Association and Board
f Trade will take the matter up with
their respective organizations with . a
view to getting representative business
men to attend in a body.
"Portland Day is Thursday, Septem
ber 18th, The special train will- leave
this city at S o'clock in the morning
and have the right of way, making the
run in about an hour. Visitors will be
given all day at the Fair, and their
tickets will be good for admission to
any part of the grounds; Special at
tractions,, in addition to the grand pa
rade of fancy live stock and faces have
been-arranged. It is the lowest rate
yet pained to the Capital City, and 09
doubt will Induce a large number of
people to go outside of those from, the
commercial bodies. General Agent
Coman promises that there will be
enough cars to accommodate the crowd
If one train is not enough he will fur
nish another. '"
'Portland business men should at
tend for more reasons than one said
Secretary Wisdom. In a; sense.' the
Fair Is an exhibit of country produce.
The country people trade with Portland
and the knowledge that Portkind bus
iness men take enough interest In their
efforts' to personally inspect the re
sults of their enterprise will result In
more friendly trade relations. It shows
they take a sride in the, industrial de
velopment of Interior Oregon, and this
fact incites renewed energy all along
the line, - It causes the countrv . visitor
to feel a personal pride in being a
factor in the upbuilding of a great
commercial - city like Portland. It
shows the city merchant, furthermore,
the. great trade opportunities that lis
dormant in the Interior of the state.
He gleans many practical Ideas by
which he can Increase his own business
profitably. The Fair is an Industrial
educator along home missionary lines,
and while we expect good to come of
showing' outside visitors our resources,
we expeet greater good by showing our
home people the full possibilities of ex
panding the trade of the interior. Many
of us scarcely realize what we produce.
within the borders of our own state.' , '
'Mr. Wisdom personally- visited each
secretary of the commercial bodies
yesterday, and was promised that the
matter of attending in a bodv would
be brought to the attention of the mem
bers at the earliest opportunity. . At
the Fair this year, are represented
counties from Southern x Oregon. Cen
tral Oregon and the Coast, which do
considerable of tbelr trading -with San

of diverting more of it in this direc
