EVENING CAPITAL JOURNAL. THUESD'AY, SEPT. 0, 1SSS. The Fair Thlnj. So far as it oes, the State Board of Immigration has done a just tklug towards an hidefatigahlolpub licofllcer who fs acknowledged to have voluntarily done an immense amount of work far beyond the pre scribed duties of his office in obtain ing the passing of influential per sons through the state, on tours of observation, the very best advertise-; meut it could have. "We clip the following from the News : A communication was read 'friu' Hon. E. B. McElroy, givfng aide tailed account of his work 'ha 'San Francisco during the National Ed ucational Association. tie letter went on to say that the writer had received from the following bodies the stuns named., Portland Immlsratlon'Uoard JS100 Albnnr iionru 01 nnae Hulem Hoard of Trade Oresron Hoard ofTrnde Northern raclflcRnllTMd Total . $190 He has made disbursements to the amount of $431, or an excess of $241 over the sum received by liim. Of this deficit the Salem Board of Trade had reimbursed him to the ex' tent df $50, leaving him still out of pocket?191. In this condition he desired to refer the matter to tho board 'for their consideVation. On 'motion ofIr. Corbett the sum of SlOdwas ordered paid Mr. Mc Elroy, and, tho "Secretary was in structed to issue a waYrant therefor. We have not received the slight est nint irom rror. aioisiroy or any of his friends about this indeed we plead guilty to having forgotten till reading the above report in tho News that wo had ever known that he was out of pocket. And we ask, simply in a spirit , of justice, what should be done about the other ninety odd dollars?. He ought to be reimbursed every cent of it. Credit Wbere Credit Dae. Henry "Ward Beechcr ouce dropped into a village church incog, and heard one of his own sermons very well read, but without any ac knowledgement of its author. When Mr. B. told the preacher who he was, no .received this cool reply: "Well, Mr. Beecher, I'm not ashamed to preach one of your ter- mous anywhere." It is noteworthy, and tho Joun nal, should not complain of the ini plied compliment, that the Peiutlb- ton Tribune is not ashamed to print one of oitr editorials, double leaded at that, but without giving credit to this paper for the screed. Southern Oregon Fruit Exhibit. Hon. lloht. A. Miller, of Jackson ville, has been taking in the state fair.
