CITRUS FAIR.
Magnificent Exhibits at the
MarySYille Pavilion.
Eastern Visitors Filled With Wonder at the
Beautiful Spectacle.
Eleven Counties Represented - Large At
tendance at the Formal Opening
dress by Col. John P. Irish.


MARYsvILLE, Jan. 13.-The second day
of the State Citrus Fair drew an immense
crowd. The weather was perfect and large
crowds came from adjoining counties and
from San Francisco. Several Fasteners
are here and are filled with wonder at the
beautiful spectacle. The entries were
completed to-day. 1t includes a very
large list of competitors from eleven
counties. The exhibits were arranged
in order and the pavilion cleared
of rubbish, and during the afternoon over
one thousand school children from Marys-
vile and Yuba City visited the fair, accom-
panied by their teachers. Among the visit
orS at the fair to-day was G. W. Hancock.
one of the Directors of the State Board of
Agriculture. He expressed himself highly
pleased with the exhibits. He said the
quality and quantity of the fruit dis
played equaled any Southern fairs, and
that its arrangement was much better.
The formal opening took place in the
evening. Colonel John p. Irish delivered
an address, during which he said that Cali
fornia was little known in the East,
especially the northern part. 1t was
great mistake. We have as fine a climate
and soil as the southern counties, and when
citrus growing is carried on for commercial
purposes we would ship as much fruit as
they. He dwelt at length upon our wonder
full eli mate and resources, and predicted
a glorious future for California. Tomorrow
will be Butte County day. An exc ursion
will be run from Oroville, and large num-
Der is expected from Palermo, Thermalto
and Chico. Many are expected from Sacra-
mento on the excursion train. The town is

Joe Choynskis brother is also a believer
in Dempsey, but to use his own words he
has 'bunch"-a observation-disclosures Fitz-

that Dempsey shall be honored with the
laurels of victory, but when asked for an
opinion he hesitated and reluctantly re-

would rather be excused
The betting here is very small, the odds
offered and accepted being 500 to $50 in
favor of Dempsey. Not many pools, how
ever, have been sold at these figures. A
telegram received from New Orleans last
evening states that Nose Gunst bet $500 on
Dempsey with Mclaughlin, who put up
$1,000 against the above amount.

COLUMBIA RIVER.
An Appropriation Agreed Upon by the River
and Harbor Committee

WASHINGTON, Jan. ia meeting of
the House River and Harbor Committee
was held to-day TO consider the boat rail-
way bill passed by the Senate recently.
There is strong objection made to paying
nearly 100000 for a ship railway at the
Columbia River obstruction above The
Dalles. Representative Hermann submitted
an amendment, providing for the present
appropriation of 100000 and authorizing
the Secretary of War to contract for the en-
tire work. This engendered lively OPPOSE
ton. General Henderson argued against
the ship-raiway scheme, and said it was
better to pay $4,000 more. which WAS the
estimate for canal through the obstruc-
sion, than to pay S2,So0,000 for an expert
ment GroSvenor and Blanchard agreed
with him, and Hermann finally suggested
that the committee favor a portage road,
which would cost S431, 900 according to the
engineers report. This would answer the
temporary purpose. This plan met with
the committees approval, and Hermann,
Grusvenor and Blanchard were appointed
committee TO prepare an amendment which
would in effect be a substitute for the Sen
ate bill and as amended Hermann was in
structed 10 report the Senate bill to the
