TRY JOURNAL WANT ADS FOR THEY BRING RESULT9 BUY DIM PUNT Disregards Recommendations of Harris to Buy New Modern Plant for Very Little More. HARRIS THINKS IT WOULD BE ECONOMY TO BUY NEW PLANT However Board Decides to Buy and Will Pay Salem Scale to Printers Employed at Capitol Demands of R. A. Harris, state nritifc- er, for a new printing plant and the rornana union wage scale, which is $4.50 more a week for each employe than the Salem union scale, were re jected yesterday afternoon br a unan imous vote of the, state printing board, consisting of Governor West, State Treasurer Kay and Secretary of State icott. 'the board decided to offer Mrs. Willis Scott Duniway, widow of the late state printer, $15,470 for the Duniway piant, this being the appraisement made by George Putnam of Medford and G. W. Orton of Portland, a major ity of the appraisement committee. Carey Iiaytcr of Dallas, the other mem- uor, appraised the plant at about $16,- ;uu. When Mr. Harris demanded that the Portland scale of $25.50 a week be put into effect Messrs. Kay and Oleott sai,l they saw no reason why tho state should pay its men more than private concerns. Governor West ni,l h . no reason why tho present scale should not be adopted, explaining that the most expert men couiu be naid what the board saw fit. Mr. Harris declared he could not iret good workmen for the Salem scale, and pleaded1 that it would be economy to adopt the Portland scale. Work Held Satisfactory. " Why should the state avo a hiirhcr scale than others?" asked Treasurer Kay. "The work has been done sat isfactorily under tho Salem scale." You and I have the brunt of this hattle to bear, Mr. Harris," said the governor. "Wo have promised the peo ple that the work would be done Heapcr undor the flat salary law than under the old system, and we must keep our pledge. We should start with tho scale in operation now and see what happens." Economy to Buy New Plant. That new and better equipment for a state printing plant cau be purchased ior .fii.j 15 was asserted by State Print. er It. A. Harris at the meeting yester- uav. as 111 tne enso of evory old print shop, there is a lot of worthless iunk in tho Duniway plaut, and it would cost the state $15,470. Additional n,n.,in. ery required would bring the cost up to $17,115, or just $537.22 less than a now modern plant would cost. SOME NOTES OP STATE FAIR CAMPINO GROUND The busiest and most sought-after man on tho fair grounds, next to the popular Frank Morcdith, is Con Ho myer, who is here, there and every where. Ed. Carey, of Carlton, a last year's camper, was recently in to make an entry in the cattlo department. hx-Shenff Worth Houston, of Al bany, writes for extra camping space, to be used by a neighbor. James I. Davis, of Oakland, will camp early. He is to give demonstra tions in the handling of bees. There is a good supply of hay and straw for sprinkling the streets when Old Sol again smiles upon the Tented City. ThoRe coming to camp should have their mail addressed to Fair Grounds, Oregon. Omit the word Salem, as it confuses the mail clerks. Just as much reason in addressing a letter Albany, Eugene, Oregon, as Fair Grounds, Sa lem, Oregon. Fair Grounds is as much a separate office as is Portland and San Francisco. The board will handle the wood proposition and sell wood to the campers at cost. The familiar face of L. W.

Edison's latest invention, the Kiuotophone, or talking pictures, has taker its place among the high class theatrical attractions now tour ing tho country. A program of 12 cx collont subjects, combining musical and dramatic numbers, comedy, vaudeville and minstrol bits, and special foaturos in which prominont statesmen and not ed suffragists are seon and heard, has been arranged for presentation in the first-class theatres, to bo at the Grand opera house September 8 and 9. Several companies have been organ ized by Mr. Edison, each equipped with its force of operators and necessary mechanical accessories of machines, etc., and having its advance agent and business manager. These eniiipnnies are competing successfully with the larg est dramatic and musicnl organizations for volume of business. In tho hundred or more loading cities of the United States where the Kiuotophone has al ready been seon during engagements varying from thro days to as many months, the recognized dramatic crit ics have been unanimous la declaring it nn unqualified success.
