THE SPORT AT SALEM.

county was, in one sense, well repre-
sented at the state fair. Five of her
citizens, besides President Apperson,
were on duty as officials of the asso-
citation, H. &. Stevens, Joe Purdom,
Captain w. Smith and Mr.. Talbert.
Otherwise, the exhibit from this
county, if there was any, was so
meager that it was not noticeable.
The great feature of the fair was
the races, and the great mogul of
races was the shreWd state senator
from Eastern Oregon. He follows
the profession of betting on horses,
from one race track to another, and
did distinguished service for himself
as one OF the three judges. The other
two judges were guileless graDgers
not Injured to the wiles of the race
track. Between attention to pool
selling and his duties as judge the
senator was kept busy. 1t was a
soft snap. The horse on which he
had the most money was sure to
win, Judges are appointed for the
purpose Of shielding the public. as
much as possible, from the tricks Of
the professional horsemen; but here
was a judge whose occupation is to
do the very thing in which he was
supposed to arbitrate. Funny, isn't
1t? Notwithstanding this draw
back, the race track was to the pub
lie the most interesting feature of
the state fair, and without this it
would have been a lame affair. If
the officers of the state agricultural
society would familiarize themselves
with the rules Of the national trot-
ting association they might be able
to give the public next year square
deal.
The display of stock, fruits and
vegetables, though not as extensive
as 1t might have been, gave proof of
the fact what a grand display our
farmers could make if they wanted
to. The lS5 varieties of potatoes of

nor Thayer discovered by his own
experience the absurdity of his plan,
and spoke in his message as follows:
"The duty imposed upon the
board of eduction, as the schools
are organized, was a source of great
annoyace, similar in character and
more perplexing than that endured
by school distr let directors. The
board, realizing the embarrassment
in which it was placed in regard to
the two schools, and believing that
they were nWt affording sufficient
benefit to justify the expenses in
Cured in conducting them, deter
mined to continue them no longer,
until more satisfactory arrange
ments could be made for their man
agement. In my judgement both
schools should be under an organiz-
alton similar to that which the
government and superintendent of
the State university is under. In
such case a reasonable appropriation
could be made by the state in aid of
the enterprise, and the board of ed
ucation be relieved Of the duties Of
trusteeship provided in the law now
in force.
Should you think favorably of
this suggestion and pass an act ere.
ating school for the education of
deaf mutes and the blind, and pro-
viding a board of directors for its
government and uperintendence
and for the appointment of its
members, a sufficient number of
benevolent and competent persons
could doubtless be found who would
accept the position of directors and
gratuituously discharge the duty
imposed. 1t is unjust to burden the
board of education with such an
institution in detail.n
Under these recommendations of
Gov. Thayer the present board of di-
rectors 70 this school was created.
Its members have worked entirely
without pay, and several of them
have served since 1880. Governor
Thayer's common sense view of the
matter has been fully sustained. The
eXperienc of other states teaches the
same lesson, and this habit of our
legislature, of creating special insti-
tutions and saddling the duty of
directing their details upon the
shoulders Of state officers, cannot be
too soon abandoned.
