The 0fe4na Co'o,,ist for june is full
of interesting matter and contains a
long article descriptive of Linn
county, and a business directory of the
leading houses of Albany. The article
contributed by A. 7. HawleY on the
future prospects of Yaguina Bay is
very interesting and full of sensible re-
marks. The publishers of the Colo,,iSt
have entered Geld ofusefelness almost
unlimited in its extent, and the success
they meet with in carrying out their
avowed object of inducing emmigra-
ton to tlis section of the state, is one
which viii depend largely upon the
h 1me support they receive. Their lit
tie paper, full Of interesting descriptive
matter, falling into the hands of those
who contsslplate removing, viii have
the effect of turning attention To this
section, AMI once the Willamette Valley
and It's resources become well known
IN the outside world II will not be long
before It's population will increase.
So loHg as we lay asleep and make no
effort 70 let the world know what we
are and what We have, just 50 long viii
We drag along in the old grooves and
lack Development and progress. We
must wake mp and bestir ourselves, We
mnss make the proper effort and ~Ien
this Is once done there need be 10 fear
for orr future. Every farmer aud
every mechanic who comes into this
section adds s. much to our ability to
procure what We want in the way of
railroad communication AMI the desel-
opnlent of our resources nov lying idle.
Tie eslaaiist is in able hands and
Is in field where ifit receives the
support It deserves, i can 10 great
work for this section. We bespeak
for it from orr readers and patrons the
LIBERAL assistance which they can we'll
aford to give il, and hope it may be
destinel to loag and useful career.

THE STATE FAIR cELEGR ,rIos.
SALEM, June C, 1851.
Editors Democrat ::
CURRY CoMT

GoALkA, june v, 1901.
Editors Democrat
have been informed that the inn
preston prevails in some localities that
it IS the intention of the State Agricul-
lural Society to continue It's summer
fairs, and to include the national holi-
day in all It's annual exhibitions here
after In order that the public may
understand the facts, and to correct
this erroneous impression, have been
requested to make public statement.
From It's organization until the year
1877, the Society had met with salts
factory aul increasing success gnd
having reason TO believe their good for
tune would continue, had incurred in-
debtedness for improvements on the
grounds, in order to meet the urgent
demands of the public and It's patrons.
The years 1877, rs and '79 were dis
astrous to the Society, as every citizen
OF Oregon is well aware. In 1879, the
Board, In theface Of all these Discourage
ments, feeling it was no longer their
duty to incur personal obligations TO
meet the deficiency caused by the con-
tinued inclemency of the weather, re-
solved to pay the premiums OF that fair
in warrants on the treasurer, redee m
able at the fair of 1880. The bank
ruptcy and ruin of the S )ciety was
then predicted by thousands. To
change the current of these terribl. re.
verses, and to restore public confidence,
the fair of 1880 was held in July, ard
as all are aware, was a triumphant
success-the warrants of 1879, which
hundreds predicted were worthless, be-
ing paid at par on presentation, princi.
pal and interest in full in coin, as were
also the premiums of 1880.
The time for hol.Iing the Fair of
1881 was fixed in December last, and
the national holiday, after much dis
cussion, again included in the exhibi.
ton week, in the belief that the So
ciety deserved one more success to
assist them in restoring the losses of
the years referred to. Thousands who
attended the Fair in 1880, and who
will come again, either reside in locali-
ties which have never been favored
with celebration, or who prefer to en-
Joy the excitement and interest of the
national holiday on the Fair grounds.
In connection with the other attractions
of the day and week. To make the
occasion one of interest and pleasure to
these people and all others in atten-
dance, and having resolved eight
months ago to include the celebration
as one Of the attractions of the Fair of
1881, the Board are now completing
their arrangements for grand jubilee
and celebration, with no design or
desire to lessen the interest which may
be felt in celebrations in other portions
of the State And while I am not able
to say what course the Board will pur-
sue another year in regard to the time
of holding its annual exhibition, I do
feel confident that / express the senti-
ment of the Society and its officers
when ! say, that The national holiday,
fo' uaaqy gears at least, acig not again
be included IN ats annual exhibitions

JORDAN VALLEY

The last issue of The willamette
Farmer has the following: Dir. John
Beyant at tho State Grange informed
US that some important improvements
are being made in Jordan Valley, near
his place. Dir. N. Young, who is ono
of the most popular of nIillers, and
understands the business thoroughly.
is putting up a custom mill below
Bryant's, which will be a great accome-
dation, as Jordan Valley is a splendid
wheat-growing region. John Curl has
a steam saw mill near by. Next week
the construction of bridge across
Thomas creek will be commenced at
this mill and there is some talk of
starting little town there, as the
bridge will bring quite country into
connection with these mills and store
is necessary to that beautiful valley.
In fact Jordan Valley wears the ap-
pearance of a very Eden at this season
and we consider it Que of the most
charming spots in Oregon, and that
means great deal.

ed with little delay.
Neither the local officers nf tie

particulars of the lease Of the formers

known here concerning future opera
tions OF the valley roads. While

Brownsville, Lima county, to Coberg,

pointed to the election OF II. b.
Ledyard, OF Detroit, general manager
of tho Michigan Central, as president
and I. Il. Oal1es a first vice president.
This information is construed to mean
that management OF the eastern
divisions of the road will be under
Mr.. Ledyard and the western di-
visions under Mr. Cakes.
To the above we may add that Mr..
J. Brandt passed through this city
toward Portland, on Tuesday last and
in conversation with Mr.. Gross of the

Vigorous efforts are being made BY

anDul lie contract by which the
narnw glugc read was leased for %
years to the q. r. &. y. Co,
and Il is confidently asserted that they
will lie successful Eleven hundred
men, in the employ of the Oregonian
Railway Co., limited, are expecting
orders every day TO resume work for
their laie employers, and they are
sure, from representations faade them
by the compnny's agent, that such
will be the case. The contract, it is
alleged, was made IN peculiar way.
Mr. Montgomery, who was a large
contractor. for the company and
large stociloldef in the road, went to
Scotland to confer with the directors
and negotiate the transfer. He
succeeded in procuring from them a
power Of attorney, unknown 10 Mr.
Reid, who departed hence about four
weeks since. lie was detained in
~ esy- York on enc prefext or another,
By the g Z. & :. Co., who
tried to make him sell, but he would
not trade. Tie remained in the city
several days, and shorty after the
ship, on which he was q passenger,
sliied for Europe, Montgomery made
the transfer. Hence the attempt to
break the contract. There will be
e9nsid@fable Irrigation before the
mlfter Is finally adjusted.-Es
