A Rare EIks Head.

d. w. Henry of Polk county was
in the city today to get present sent
him by his son, at Rock Springs, Wy
oming. It is a magnificent elks head
mounted in superb style. The antlers
have five points each; and are almost
perfect duplicates. When it Is re-
membered that these proud animals
are growing very rare in the west it
is easy to understand why Mr.. Henry
prizes them so highly In Oregon it
is absolutely against the law to kill
an elk under severe penalty.

Guard. as adjutant of the second squad
ron with the rank of lieutenant

ROSenfield and the other officers in

MEETING ON FAIR TONIGHT
All Interested Citizens Should be at
Gathering at Rock Island Club.

If you are interested in the county
fair that is projected here be at the
meeting called for s O'Clock this even
ing at the Rock Island club.
AS told in The Argus of Saturday
evening the land needed to expand the
Ninth street ground to proportions
adequate to accommodate the fair has
been secured through lease.
The meeting to be held this evening
is for the purpose of hearing the re-
port of the committee appointed two
weeks ago and instructed to see what
arrangements could be made for OBJ
tanning the additional ground and Sc
curing estimates of the cost of build
ingS and other alterations.
The plan is to organize n fair aSSO-
citation and absorb the Twin City Driv-
ing association. which is holding the
ground under a lease. The new en-
terprise will be a stock company OF
$4,000 probably. The stock will be
distributed as generally as possible
over the county. in order 10 have the
farmers equally. if not more. inter
ested than the people of the city.
1t is proposed to have the first fair
this fall. following closely after the
running meeting that is to open at the
track Sept. l and continue nine days
The undertaking will be more fully dis
cussed at the meeting this evening 1t
is desired that there be large repre-
sentatiOn of citizens in order that as
many ideas as possible be gained
The project will be pushed from now
on. \ quarter century ago the city
had a county fair each fall. 1t was
made a big thing, attracting thousands
of people to the city. If the plans in
view now are carried out, and if there
is no reason why they should not, with
the best hustlers in the community be
hind them. we will have a fair here
this fall that will so far Outshine all
previous undertakings in this direc-
tons of the county that there will be
no comparison.

WATERLOO OF RECIPROCITY.
Lodge Plays Wellington to the Ma
poIeon of Eugene Foss.
(By the Associated Press.)

Boston, Mass, April 15.-Canadian le-
eiLlocity aud Eugene FoSs, It's foremost
champion in this section OF New Eng
land, were decisively defeated today in
the Republican State Convention called
to elect four delegates at-large to the
Republican National Convention at Chi
cago. Mr.. Foss, who before the conVsn-
ton. had announced his intention of Of
fer;ng Il reciprocity resolution and of
corttesting as a candidate for delegate at
large on this issue, carrlsd out his plan.
The resolution was overwhelmingly
voted down and he was rejected as a del
ne Arrest contestant.
At time, when to all appearances, a
considerable sentiment in the convention
was with Mr.. Foss, Senator Lodge took
the platform and by an eloquent ad-
dress stemmcd the tide and carried the
delegates with him. The following dele
gates-at-large were chosen:
Ex-Governor W. Murray ranc, Senator
Ledge, Ex-Governor John D. Long, Colo
nal E. c. Benton. The platform Endorses
Roosevelt and says Massachusetts will
give him her support not only in the
national convention but in the election.
II insists upon the maintenance OF the
protective principle, demands free and
fair ballet and refers to the Sherman
antitrust law rs establishing that no
condition detrimental to public welfare
can arise that cannot be checked by con-
stitutional legislation.
