ABOUT THE FAIR.

Ii is not surprising TO learn that the
state fair at Salem was something OF
failure. No other result could have
been earned by an enterprises in when
the ancient aud rapidly-decaying spo.
OF horseracing was doomed as the lead
ing attraction. The fatted shoat is a
Grazing excitement aud the dropsical
squash is q first-water gem OF magnet =
lem when compared with the average
Oregon speedhUrse as an appeal To the
rural mind and purse. Portland Tele'
gram.
The JOURNAL has been telling the
state fair managers that they must or
gauize aud specialize the departments
Of agriculture, horticulture, dAiryiDg.
stock, sheep, etc. This bAs been done
With the dairy department.. Just how
1t happened no one knows. The rest
Of the fair contained little else than
sldeshows, balooning. horseraclDg and
bicycling. There is no way to run a
fair without these o-called attractions
But there should also he more OF the
solid, substantial and legitimate fea-
lures. Governor Lord should not over
look this when he appoints three new
members Of the board IN December.
We do not know that anyone was to
blame for what the fair was not thIa
year. The secretary and board are ss
experienced men as there are In the
state, and doubtless did all IN their
power to render the fair successful.
But the exhibits and attendance
were light. There was very little or
ganized effort aud the board did not
pull together well. Many excellent
suggestions were made by Mr.. LOoney
and other gentlemen Of the board, to
which no attention was paid. But
whenever the managers got In . tight
dix they always called Oh the men Of
ideas and resources to help !h,m out.
Salem papers will testify to the fact
that the secretary was very economical
In bis management, but there was a
great deal OF poor economy shown in
other ways. II Is useless now to try to
point out the mistakes tnat were made.
There is An impression that there is a
ring within the board that il greedy,
selfish, uDProgressiye, unenterprislng
and strictly on the make. They care
nothing for the producer nor the public,
80 they secure every lAst dollar there is
in it. The publication of all the re-
ceipts and disbursements Of the fair.
and by whom paid out and by whom
authorized, might throw q great deal Of
light on the whole matter and reveal
the cause Of the bad management. The
horsemen cannot be blamed for bring
ing horses and arranging to take the
purses at rs little effort or expense TO
themselves Ms possible. It remains
that they furnished about the only
interest there was.

ADVICE 70 A cONrEMpoRARY


The Salem Statesman Is an old news
paper and has some able men CEN
nected with it at times. But 1t com
mitted a piece Of unmitlgated folly
the ether day when IL tried 10 make
our police out heroes in their efforts to
capture the Chinaman supposed to
have murdered the japanese woman.
1t put the police In very ridiculous
light by referring to the affair as ian
atrOcious butchery that has no parallel
in the criminal records OF Salem and
but few elsewhere" Walter Lyon
sent bis paper about ten lines report
about the "atrocious butchery" and
that is about the space the newspaper
in almost any city would have given
the matter. But the Slatesmabt
frenzy and display Of blood-curdhnG
adjectives is better understood when II
slated that two Of its reporters were 10
the expedition that resulted In cracking
white man over the skull, aud fully
accounts for the fact that no one wst
captured. Not even the near-sighted
hArd-sleeping renter on the Fletcher
place. Here Is its own account OF the
way Il was done;
After learning the exact location OF
the house the party proceeded quietly
70 the building, which is almost sur.
rounded by thick brush. The two
officers went to the front door and
MarshAl Dilley ordered the Statesman
man to guard the rear, so as to preven,
possible escape in that direction.
But Il was At the rear door the mar
escaped and the Statesman man was
fortunately so poor a shot that q
second murder, aud that on q white
man. was not committed. But what
The JOURNAL started out to comment
upon was the senseless and useless
laudation Of the police, who only did
their duty, and unfortunately accom-.
plished nothing, owing TO their having
too many rash and reckless sensation
hunters along with them. Next time
they go on such an expldition they
will not take so many story writers
along and will possibly meet with
better success. The Salesman labors
under the mistaken idea that IL must
make out a case for the police. If 1t
would lei them alone they would
make out far better case and II would
not Le led into the attitude Of sensA-
tlonalism. THE JOURNAL believes
the Salem police are doing their whole
duty In this matter and are capable of
handling = murder case without the
aid Of u "too previous newspaper which
however great q success 1t may be its
llne has no men on its force who can
be safely set to guard even back doOr
against supposed Chinaman.
