The records of tho Western Union Telegraph company may bo consulted to show the extent of the expenditures by the individual nowspapers and Uio Associated Press for telegraphic tolls alone. During tho year ending Juno 30, 1890, the Western Union Telegraph company delivered at all stations 322, 088,138 words of "regular" or Asso ciated Press report. This was deliv ered to an average of two nowspapers In each place, at an average cost of llftecn cents per 100 words for each place. This is rendered possible only by t he great number of places served on a circuit, from thirty to forty being supplied in soiuo cases at tho same time. During the same period the company handled 20G, 025,001 words of specials, at nn average cost of fifty-one cents per hundred words. Theso figures do not include reports transmitted by tho As sociated Press over its leased wires, or special correspondence sent on individ ual newspapers' leased wires. Esti mating theso two classes and tho ro port!, of the outside press, there was delivered to the newspapers during that year an aggregato amount of 1,600, OCO.OOO words of telegraph news. On the regular i-ervico a littlo moro than 22 per cent, is handled by the tel egraph company in tho daytime, whilo on the special Bervico only about 6 per cent, of the volume Is handled in tho daytime. The day rate is twice tho night rate. On the Associated Press leased wires tho proportions are 34 per cent, of day report to 3G per cent of night report, and the difference in cost the same as by Western Union lines. Tho total press receipts by the telegraph company for the year ending June 30, 1800. Including regular, special and leased wires, were $1,848,247.23. It should be borne in mind that theso tlgtu-Hs do not Includo tolls on other hues, or cable tolls, or tlio wages of correspondents and operators, or mis cellaneous expenses, or tho sums paid for news by botli individual nowspapers and the Associated Press, which would aggregato a very largo sum. One very interesting feature of news service, of which tho publio has no knowledge, is telegrapldng in cases of htorms and interruptions. It is on such occasions that tho utility of a vast sys tem is made manifest During tho blizzard of March, 1888, for Instance, the Washington report was sent to Philadelphia via Now Orleans, Mem phis, St. Louis, Chicago and Pittsburg; whilo New York city received it from Albany, it having reached Albany via Now Orleans, St. Louis, Chicago, Clovo land and Buffalo. A more extraordinary case is that of Boston, which received a condensed report from New York via London, it being sent by one cablo from Now York to London, and thence back by an other cablo which lands in Now Ilamp shire. Boston is frequently served with Now York news via Montreal, and Al bany via Pittsburg and Buffalo, the route being via tho Pennsylvania rail road to Pittsburg, tliouco across via Cleveland to Buffalo, and thenco down tho Now York Central to Albany.

Thoy havo often and Justly complained that tho fair managers spent so much mouey on horse racing. Here Is a chance to demonstrate that the fruit interest is a greater Interest than the fast horso interest. The fruit palace should bo made such a success that no one will any longer doubt that. Moro people are uatur ally Interested in fruit growing aud fruit consuming than In fast horses and horse raciug. A fruit palace will attract tho attention of more people and from a greater distance than any races that are likely to be held here. Tho Oregonlan and Ban Francisco Ilural Press and many other priulB havo hud articles on tho Oregon Fruit Palace. "With the proper enthusiasm to mako It the great success it should be, the entire press of the Uultcd States can be set talking about the Oregon fruit palace aud the pictorials will want to Illustrate it. All the world Is ready to talk about our wonderful fruit-growing capacity If wo will ouly call their attention to it In a proper way. Our own enthusiasm Is capable of giving our slate mcro advertising thau all the money can di if wo will ouly let it manifest Itsolf. No one can looh 'llhout enthus iasm at tho cherry crop, tho straw berry crop und other small fruit un limited; and then at the peach, plum, uectarlue, quluce, apple aud pear crop where is llicro a rogltu to stand up with Oregon at all? Ileal enthusiasm grows out of actual knowledge of the facts. In fectious enthusiasm spreads from a a whlte-heot glow got up by those In direct contact with tho facts. We know tho facta here about Oregon fruit. Unless wo who do know tho facts aro enthusiastic how can we expect others to be? The fruit palace is a good thing to become euthuslastlo about. It is based upon universal principles of . the beauty of nature and the needs of tho world for tho bttter food, better homes and more profltablo employment that grows out of horti culture. The fruit palace Idea can bo made a veritable gold mine that will Increase every acre of land In Oregon iu cash value. Tho field is ours. The opportunity Is ours. It is otir.s to Improve.
