The Coming Fair.

Most of the preliminary arrange
ments for the district fair to be held
here commencing on October 18th and
continuing five days, have been COM
pleted. The premiuL, lists have been
printed and are ready for use, the ap-
preparation of $500 from the state is
available, and the officers of the assoc
lation are ready to take hold the mat
ter in zeal earnest. Farmers through
out the district are more than anxious
to make exhibits OF their various pro-
ducts, and there is every indication
that the pavilion will present better
exhibit this season than eyer before.
AS the state appropriation is available
only for premiums, it will be necessary
in order to have a racing season con-
nected with the fair, that The Dalles
shall hang liberal purses for trials of
speed. IL is hoped that $1,000 can be
raised for this purpose, as in this case
the association can hang from $3.50 to
$500 in purses, which would attract
tract large numbers of the best horses
on the coast to compete for the purses.

A Lively Runaway.

About o'clock Friday night ]. Fill
loon tied his horse. which was attached
to an open buggy. in front of Fratern.
ity hall. while he escorted some lady
friends into the hall to attend social
given by Cedar Grove. During his
absence the horse saw an opportunity
to create an excitement. and proceeded
10 do SO. The animal broke the reins
with which it was fastened, and when
loose started out for exercise Run
ming down Court street it got mixed
up with the railroad track on First
street and wrecked one hind wheel of
the buggy. From there the animal
took several turns around town, being
given the exclusive right-of-way
through the streets, and finally headed
for the country. going out over the
Fourth street bridge, down the lower
road, and landed il a clump of bru-h
peae The high trestle five miles below
towa. All the damage done was the
breaking OF one wheel and . few straps
on the harness.

CLASSIFIED ASSESSMENTS.
The New Plan Adopted t'y the A. % L
w and How 1t Works.

w and How 1t Works.
At the last session of the grand
lodge. a. 0. L. w, there was adopted
what is known us the classified assess
mea6 plan, dividing the membership
into groups or classes of five years
each and charging each class the NOR
tality rates of its class. based upon the
American expectancy tables. The
membership advancing from one class
to the other until they reach their
tiftieth birthday when the rate rema'Ds
level thereafter, giving protection at
current cost. The Oregon grand lodge
also provided for reducing the number
! of assessments upon members over
| fifty years of age who have been con-
tinuously in the order for twenty
years thereby reducing the cost TO the
! old man when his earning power de-
| creases. This plan was evolved after
| much thought, covering months OF
careful deliberation by some of the
brightest minds in the United States.
There were fifty-four deaths in
Oregon last year. calling for Sl0S,0O0.
Had the classified plan been in force
seven assessments would ave pro-
| duced $l09, $3.50, which would have paid
the deaths end left over 81 800 in the
I treasury. The cost per thousand dol
lars would have been as follows:

but, arriving at the fatal bend III the
road near Latimer, they again found

were three companies of deputies, and
one of these was made up of men who
had served as mine police in the past
and had much trouble with the strik-
ers on previous occasions. and were
said to be in revengeful mood against
them.

price OF wheat. Tbe Regulator line

And this after the Oregon grand
lodge has been doing business for
nearly twenty years, which speaks
volumes for the care that has been eX-
ercised in the risks that have been
taken. Under the new plan a renewal
of interest can be seen in tt lodges
and at Tillamook where the grand
lecturer of the order has just visited.
fifteen new applications were received,
ages ranging from 10 to 43 years.
This plan is radical departure from
the beaten paths of ofco-operative organi-
zations, and the result will be watched
with interest by all. Fourteen grand
jurisdictions have already adopted
this plan and the results are eminently
satisfactory, California initiating over
1000 men in the last year, the average
age of which was % years, and New
York running into the thousands with
an average age of % years. The A. o.
wv. has the largest membership of
any secret society in Oregon and we
will endeavor to give our readers the
result of the change from time to time
as the work goes on.

TWO CONFLICTING STATEMENTS.
Were the Authorities Justified in Using
Force at Latimer?

!
The first reports published of the
| unfortunate occurrence at Latimer
Pa, on the 10Th, indicated that the
deputy sheriffs were justified In firing
upon the marching strikers. Sheriff
Martin made statement that he was
assaulted by the leader of the moo,and
ordered his deputies to fire only when
it was necessary. In speaking of the
occurrence he said:
"rhis is an unfortupste affair, but
think 80 men out of 100 would have
done just as did. Now that the crisis
has been reached, I don't propose to
shirk my duty. Some say my action
was premature. 1 had been parleying
with the mob f9r f9ar days. They
were gradually getting the best Of the
situation and 1 think In "a hours RoEe
things would have been worse"
AS the matter is more fully inyesti-
gated it appears that the officers acted
hastily, to say the least. ana there are
some indications that the strikers yere
led into q trap, apd were murdered.
DIR. Lewandowsky, representing the
Polish societies OF New York, is at
Latimsr collecting evidence con nected
with the affair asd has secured the af
fl layits of number Of mines who were

The following is an extract from a

captain, is as good natured and accomo-
dating man as ever sailed beat.
The Northeastern Pennsylvania ladies
seemed to have captured the captain 8
heart-or maybe it was his ordinary
every day good nature which prompted
him to turn his private cabin over to
the party for their exclusive use on
this trip, with all its pharaphenalia-
a kindness that was doubly acceptable
owing to the crowded condition of the
vessel. The ride occupied a greater
portion of the day. At the jun :tion tf

the establishment of which was gravely
reported by our genial captain as due
to an accident which had occurred ut
this point. Eagerness was depicted
on the faces of all in the party, and
our excursion manager-the one from
Pittsburg, be it known to ail-could
not resist asking for details. He then
learned that it was here that the Will
annette ran into the Columb bia, where
upon the excursion manager at once
made it his business to see that his
friends were made acquainted with the
direful calamity. The captain was
very careful to complete his story and
to remark that the damage was slight
and nobody was hurt.''

Name.

Railroad Man Gives Our City u Good
Name.
General Agent VIM. Harder, of the
Saturday after a visit to the Inland
Empire, and in speaking of his trip to
an Oregonian reporter, passed some
very happy compliments upon The
Dalles. Among other things he said:
CAT The Dalles everything is hum.
ming, all the merchants are busy ship
ping goods in all directions by team
into the interior. Farmers and ranch
ers are pouring into the place with
wheat, which they readily dispose of
at 80 ce ats bushel. Wool shipment,
haye been. going East for several
weeks, all the buyers having purchased
their quota a1d left for home. W. E.
Jones, partner of the firm of Hollowell
& Donal1, in Boston. is the large It
shipper, and is still grading and baling.
his output amounting to over 1000, 900
pounds, he expects to finish in about
10 days.
"The Dulles Commission Company
has shipped large quantity of green
fruit, which has realized good prices
in the East. Considerable cattle and
sheep traffic has been going on all
summer, but during the next two
months ranchers and stockmeu expect
to make very heavy fall shipments to
Kansas City and Chicago. Portland
and the sound cities also draw their
supplies of cattle and sheep from this
section. Hogs are very scarce in Ore
gon and Washington. Prices of all
kinds of livestock have advanced in
sympathy with all other commodities,
and stockraisers feel very comfortable
over the prices they now realize as
compared with those of year ago.
''Fall salmon-p.cking has also begun
at The Dalles. Mr. F. A. Seufert
started his fishwheels on the morning
of the 10th, and in less than 24 hours
he had secured oyer 80 tons of silver
side salmon. He reports the Columbia
teeming with fish. and expects to put
up many thousand cases.
The Dalles is a smart city, being
the distributing point for vast terri
tory in all directions. Its merchants
are live and progressive lot of men,
fully determined to make their city an
Important commercial certer, and with !
every indication of success"
