srs isfceri? off; Eve MLLO LIZZIE IT AWFUL AWFUL AWFUL ? f WOULD LET FARMERS DRAINTjIEIR LANDS , The tentative draft of a bill to be presented to the next legiBlnture has been prepiired by Assistant State En gineer Oupper, which authorizes the organization of drainage districts un der which it will be possible for the farmers to organize into districts for the construction of drainage works, to construct the main draiuuge ditches and keep the streams and ditches clear of debris. The bill is drafted after the most recent druinnge law which has just been adopted by the legisla ture of Missouri. It carries no appropriation with it, but the farmers "re authorized to issue district bonds for drainnge improve ments. Tho only interest in or control over the improvements contemplated under the bill that the state has is that of a supervisory nature in that the plans are to be submitted to and pnss-, ed upon by the state engineer and that the engineer for the construction of the druinnge cannls and ditches that is selected by the board of trustees of the district is subjoft to tho approval of the state engineer.

San Fruit Isco fight fans were laughing, today , nt Willie Ritchie, ex-world's -lightweight champion. Kiteiiio, yesterday, was bubbling over with enthtistusm tor a match with Freddie Welsh, asserting that he was not looking so much to the finniicinl end its an opportunity to 'regain his title. When tho chance came, iiojwever, Ritchie turned it down cold. "I don't cure what the promoter gives Welsh for his end," Ititchie suid, yesteidny. "I'll look out for my end of it, The thing uppermost in my mind is to get Welsh in the ring. The fin ancial end is a secondary consideration as for as I am concerned." Then tile opportunity do meet Welsh enme. I'romoter Coffroth, wiring from I, os Angeles, proposed that Freddie Welsh be given the first 15,000 taken iu at the gate, Rlte.hie to receive 00 per cent of nil over thut amount. The proposition was put up to Ititchie by 1 "of froth's agent here. Tho former chumpion immediately accepted the of fer. Thirty minutes later he returned nuil suid he wits not satisfied with the terms. "i feel Hint I should hnve ""00 for my services," suid Ititchie, "That's wiint doe Kivers was paid when they guaranteed me $18,000 to box him. If I'offroth wants to give Welsh $15,000 t tint Is all right, n he will assure me 7500 for mv cud I'll tuke on the .miiteh. Otherwise it is all off." ' Ititchie made no explanation of his sudden change of front, ('off roth is due home today and he may be able to bring the former champion around.

CYS i ' i ' DID IT EVER si jl J GET CAUGHT I ( ! 1 I (ON THAT WIRE-) V uiIi STATE FAIR BOARD'S i NETFK RUT IlTTin Huma uui tiiiiiaj The chief need of the Oregon state fair board, which the next session of the legislature will be called upon to supply, will be an appropriation or $123,638.40 with which to construct a new livestock coliseum for tne state fair grounds to add to the. building equipment during the coming yenr. This is the principal item of the board's estimates for the' ensuing bien nium which were filed with the secre tary of state to be included in the bud get for legislative enactment. Another important : improvement which the fair board contemplates for next year will be the construction of permanent roadways in the fair grounds proper and In the camp grounds, the ag gregate cost of which is estimated at $9710. It is proposed to construct a system of macadam driveways through out the grounds to connect with all of the buildings, and upon, the priirtipal streets of the camp grounds;, and to treat them each year with a floating of Richmond road oil. One of 'the most deplorable features of the lair grounds' equipment is the driveway system, which is of cheap and but temporary construction, and, during inclement weather, is not fit f6r travel either on foot or otherwise, and the board feels that this is a much-needed improve ment. ' The state fair board is provided by statute with a continuous appropriation of 30,000 annually for premium hinds land $2000 annually for printing, ex- penses, and whatever surplus exists in the receipts over expenditures in the conduct of a fnir goes Into a .revolving mint set aside tor use for needed re pairs and minor improvements.
