CROKER AND PLATT.

It was thought that when the Horton
law went into effect and the prize fight
ers were out of job, so to speak, jaw
ing matches were out of fashion in
Gotham. Not so! No sooner have the
s'pugs" closed down their exhibitions,
than Dick Croker and Tom Platt get a
into wrangle.
Platt says tb&S Tammany will have
an enormotls fund for use in the pend
ing election because its managers will
levy blackmail on the gambling rooms,
saloons and disorderly houses of the me-
tropolis. When Croker heard this charge
he verify foamed at the mouth. and an

that eff Plat said that Tammany Hall
or any Tammany leaders would collect
campaign funds from gamblers and dis
orderly houses, he is a liar. Any >one
else who says that Tammany Hall will
blaekmail divekeepers and law-break-
ers is liar"
When Plat saw Oroker's emphatic
declaration, he smiled and "winked the
other eye." It is possible that he will
make reply in few days, and in the
meantime he and Dick will continue to
lay underground plans by which Dick
will continue to own the town and Tom

Should Bore fos OIL Ia Oregon.

&c. A. M" In the Oregonian tells Of
the many industries which are now using
crude petroleum as fuel, In California, and
closes as follows: Oregon should awake
to her opportunities. for II Is not to be sup.
posed that state lines define the b0undar
les Of the oil fields. The writer has him.

sandstones which In California are con.
sidered as prime indications OF oil. Ore.
gon doubtless has within her borders vast
beds, not only Of coal. but Of Oilsands as
we'll, and In the development Of both will
doubtless find the solution OF the fuel
question. The problem solved, manufac.
lures will spring up where now they are
impossible and commerce will expand and
Portland will then rival or surpass Los
Angeles, which, In spite OF four successive
years OF drOuth has increased her pOpula.
ton within the last decade by a greater
per cen.age than any other city in the
United States. This increase can be just.
Iy attributed only to the development Of
the oil fields of southern California which
as yet Is only fairly begun; and In which
vast fortunes await the investment Of cap.
ital and enterprise.

NO FAIR NEXT YEAR.
Directors of this District Can't
Agree on Place.

Again, next year, there will be no fair
In District No. Of the Eastern Oregon
Agricultural district. This course was
decided upon by the directors at meeting
held here this week. Baker, Grant, Nal.
heur, Union and Wallowa counties com.
prise this First district. There Is an an.
nual appropriation Of $500 for the fair.
As It was not used last year, and will not
be again In 1901, It Is generally believed
BY the five directors and business men
generally that these expositions are at an
end. This impression Is strengthened by
the rumor that at the coming session Of
the legislature the law which provides for
this appropriation will be repealed.
The present board Of directors Is: l.. J.
Rouse, of Wallowa county; J. }. Cozart,
Of Grant county; George E.Bell, OF Baker
county; William Hunter.of Union county,
and Columbus Wells, Of Malheur county.
At the meeting this week all were in at.
tendance except Mr.. Cozart, Of Grant.
The reason for the decision not to hold the
fair next year Is disagreement as to the
place. Mr.. Cozart was reported to insist
that the meeting be held In Grant county.
All the other members were united In ac.
cording the privilege to Wallowa or Nal.
heur, II they asked, which Wallowa did.
As the law provides that one dissenting
member Is sufficient to defeat the effort to
hold the fair at any given pla>e, and
Mr.. Cozart was reported as obdurate, the
other members would not 20 against their
wishes and decided to have no fair at all.
Grant county has had the fair three
times, Baker four and Union four. As
neither Wallowa nor Malheur had heen
so favored at all, It appeared to most Of
the directors that Wallowa's desire should
be granted. In the past Wallowa, which
was regarded as stock country and not
In touch with railroads, was not thought
to take much interest In industrial fairs.
But Of recent years there has been ma.
terial tendency towards agriculture. In
some Of the little valleys along the Snake
and the lmnaha rivers are found fruit
lands, which are said to rival the orchard
paradises Of Eagle and Pine valleys In
Union county. Some good fruit has been
produced In that section Of Wallowa and
It's people take much pride In the agri.
cultural possibilities developed. They
were especially anxious to secure the fall
this year, partially because Of this, and
for the reason that Wallowa has never
had It. Unless more Of a spirit Of CON-
promise Is shown by the board, or the
regulation requiring unanimity Is abol'
ished, there seems little hope for fairs In
future. After an arbitrary defeat Of
Grant eounty's representative this year
Wallowa will not be In mood to accord
that county any favors In the future. Il
the appropriation for these fairs Is not Gu,
off entirely, members Of the board believe
the only thing to be done Is to fix by
statute certain time and place for hold.
Ing the fairs, or delegate the power to q
majority Of members. City CORE.

OIL AND GAS IN WASHINGTON
Much Excitement Over Recent Finds
Near Rosalia.

Near Rosalia.
The excitement over the gas and oil
fields near Rosalia continues both at Spo.
kane and In the neighborhood Of the pros.
poets, says the Spokesman.Review. It Is
reported that prominent moneyed men o
this city have had men In the field, and
that the prospects for immediate, exten.
sive exploration Of the presumed deposits
wherever there are indications, Is bright.
Boring machinery Is known to be on the
way here from the east, and II is probable
that custom boring plants will soon be en-
the ground to hunt for both gas and oil.
The testimony Of many recent visitors
has been added to that of the earlier eN.
aminers Of the field to prove that the in
ditations OF the presence Of oil are I'm.
doubted and very favorable.
The leasing Of lands in the gas area is
going on, and though the farmers refuse
to part with their property at the figures
at which the first men In secured ground,
several tempting offers are reported to
have been accepted, giving some Of the
best of the land either to Spokane people
or people that will operate through this
city.
The following dispatch from Rosalia
gives interesting additional news Of con.
ditions there:
The excitement over the gas and oil In
this district continues, and preparations
are being made to develop the field to as.
certain the extent Of the gas, and II II Is
here In paying quantities. 1t Is reported
that Luke Rawls, who owns tract Of
land In the "Hole In the Ground" at the
head Of Rock lake, has bonded his land to
Spokane capitalists, who will sink well,
and that cash payment on the bond has
been made.
Wilson Moreland, who Is one Of the
managers Of the pool controlling 6ooo
acres Of land, Is In correspondence with
A. Eversole Of Garfield, who has . well
drilling outfit and wishes to contract to
drill wells In the district. Mr.. Eversole Is
expected here tomorrow, and a contract
for q we'll will probably be entered Into.
Elton Fulmer, professor Of chemistry.
and Professor Shedd, geologist Of the
Washington Agricultural college, will be
here tomorrow 10 make scientific inves'
tigation Of the gas fields, and their report
Is anxiously awaited.
DR.. Newman, L. Roy Sister, W. S.
Yeager and Mr.. Metealf are among the
Spokane visitors who are looking Ovel
the gas fields this week.
