PRESIDENT HUNT

The council of the Twenty third leg islature has given assurance of it's sound judgment and conservatism by the election of Geo. w. P. Hunt as it's presiding officer. The Silver Belt strongly advocated Mir. Hunt for pres ident of the council because of his fine record in former legislative sessions, having served in both branches of the assembly, and invariably stood for the best interests of the territory and op- posed to radical legislation, and espe- cially to extravagant appropriations. While conservative, Mr. Hunt has a comprehensive knowledge of territorial affairs aud appreciation of the require- ments of our public institutions. Every worthy interest may expect fair treat ment at bus hands, but the treasury looters and graiters will encounter his determined opposition.

HARD SHEDDING FOR THE ADJ
 MINISTRATION

It is evident from late Washington advices that the administration has n very hard fight on it's hands in it's ef- forts to secure revision of the tariff and an extension of the powers of the interstate commerce commission to the regulation of railroad rates. The tenn per of congress is not at all in harmony with the presidents ideas on those questions, and the formidable Hobbies maintained at the national capital by the highly protected interests and the railroads are not calculated to encour- age the advocates of reform.
 The president is using the threat of calling an extra session of congress to bring the reluctant members into line Probably the strongest card that Pres ident Roosevelt holds is the endorse ment of the people, for undoubtedly reforms along the lines indicated by the administration are demanded by the masses. Notwithstanding the chances of any important tariff or rail- road legislation during the short ses- sion are small. A poll of the house Is said to show ninety per cent of the re- publicans opposed to revision of the tariff at this time. Haste in either tar if or railroad legislation is deprecated, owing to the great importance of these questions, and the appointment of con- missions to consider these weighty matters Is daily gaining converts.
 The administration is also likely to be thwarted in its naval program, which will increase the probability of an extra session. On thls question a Washington correspondent has said:
 "There has been some apprehension whether Chairman Foss of the naval affairs committee will be able to carry out the naval program in the face of the economy spasm which has seized the house. The president is reported | to be determined to secure the naval increase recommended and will have it at an extra session if he cannot get it at the present session. The notice will serve to strengthen the house naval af- fair committee for the fight and may also serve to remove some of the op- position developing to liberal increase of the navy.

consulted. He presents volume of showing that all classes of citizens Tn both territories are unalter- ably opposed to the proposed merger and that they very much prefer to be left alone as territories, if separate statehood can not be given them.
 ''Ile further shows that the bill which created the territory of Arizona expressly reserves the right for persons living in said territory to seek state- hood and be admitted, under certain conditions, and provided the form oi government that should be maintained in said territory until the residents oi said territory shall take the initiative to form state government
 "rhe senator's argument will un' deubtedly have an influencing effect iu the consideration of the statehood bill and the prediction is made that the outcome will be the admission of Okla. homa and Indian Territory as one state with action on the claims of New Mex ico and Arizona postponed for future cnnorasa

UNCALLED-FoR INTERFERENCE

The intervening of the state depart ment in the case of the New York foundlings before the supreme court at Phoenix can only be classed as most remarkable and uncalled-for proceed ing.
 A local paper in mentioning it says: "Quite sensation was sprung on the crowd at the very beginning of the case when United States Attorney r. $. Nave asked the court that he be al. lowed to appear AS a friend of the court in the case, and in his announcement said that he had been requested to take this step by the attorney general of the United States, intimating that he should lean toward the side of the New York foundling society in the case, and his remarks during the beginning of the trial showed that that was the side on which he was expected to make a showing. This shows that the inter. est which President Roosevelt has talk en in the case has not died out. It is likely that the President has assured the New York Foundling Society that he would see that they received fair play, and this action by MT. Nave shows that the United States is going to see that the society does get fair play. No one certainly can object that the law Is to be given strict in terpre- tation in this case
 No one does object to strict inter- pretation of the law and the trial of the case upon it5 merits, but there is certainly very serious objection to the federal administration interfering where there Is no suspicion, or a pos sibility, we might say, of injustice be- ing done, and the entry of the United States district attorney in the case in behalf of either party to the action is a reflection upon the court, indicating ! lack of confidence h its unbiased | judgment, to put it mildly, that would ustify the members of that tribunal in their commissions.
 The case was still under advisement y the court yesterday, aud an inquiry y wire today brought no response.

What a heavy snowstorm means to a big city may be gathered from the fol lowing by the New York World : "Commissioner Woodbury has obtained an appropriation of S940,000 to pay the bills already incurred for the re- moval of snow, and even with this enor mous expenditure the city has had to depend upon the benevolence of the Providence that sends the rain as well as the blizzard. The actual work of the department has affected compara- lively small section of New York. If the entire city the bills would stagger every taxpayer"

John Matthews. an actor, who was held for time as a suspect in connee- tion with the assassination of President Lincoln, died at his boarding house in New York last week. Matthews was Wilkes Booths roommate, aud one of his closest friends, and was on the stage in the Washington theatre when the fatal shot was fired. After the as- sassination his room was searched, and because of the papers left ia the grate by Booth he was arrested on suspicion of knowing something of the plot. His innocense was later established, but his friends say be never recovered from the effects of the accusation.

SENATOR BARD

There IS no question but that Arizo-
 ua exerted considerable influence in
 the defeat of Senator Bard for re-elec- tion. Perhaps 1t was just retribu.
 tion for his uncalled for attack upon Arizona and the character of her peo- pie in the senate two years ago, when the omnibus statehood bill was under consideration by that body, but he has certainly done much to redeem himself with Arizonans by his effective opposi- ton to the Hamilton joint stateh pod bill.
 The speech made by Senator Bard recently has attracted wide attention. The Washington Post calls it "a most striking and forceful contribution to congressional literature on the question of statehood for the territories. The Post continues
 Senator Bard is strongly opposed to the passage of the pending measure combining New Mexico and Arizona in one state, and his exposition of his ar- guments in support of his position was so forceful and cogent that his col leagues with marked unanimity credit him with having won the honors of the prolonged debate on the subject,
 Senator Bard insists that the con- gress has no right to compel a union of the territories, but that the right of autonomy belongs within the territory and can not be taken from it by an act of congress without the consent of the people. He makes the rather telling point that the bill as It now stands was prepared to meet the wishes of certain elements in congress, but that the wishes of the residents of Arizona and New Mexico were never considered or

100000 Production.
Rich Entertainment Provided for
Exposition Visitors.

In these days of costly amusement
productions it must be something ex-
traordinary TO appeal strongly for
public patronage, and that Fair
Japan" is Of unusual character as re-
CARDS the amount Of money invested
-sl00, 000.00- as we'll as the unique
IL offers, Is the unani-
nous opinion Of the majority Of Lewis
and Clark Exposition visitors. Fair
Japan" is an educational as well as
most interesting attraction, and one
may get very thorough knowledge
of its industrious people by paying a
visit. In fact the first endeavor of the
management in its production was to
reproduce miniature city OF the
Flowery Kingdom, and the results
are certainly most satisfying.
Visitors enter from the Trail
through an imposing gateway, re-
plea of the famous Temple of Nekko,
and at once are struck with the gen
uine foreign atmosphere, quaint build
ings Of old and new Japan border both
sides of the street; in them are oc-
cupied over 200 native workmen
in SO manufacturing and industrial
pursuits. Reproductions Of famous
temples, and museums OF Old Japan
curios will prove most interesting to
all visitors, and the japanese tea gar
dens, with the dainty Geisha maids
serving tea and rice cake la Japan
ese, are especially popular with lady
visitors. In the japanese restaurant
both American and japanese food and
service may be had at very reason
able prices. The bazaars are stocked
with beautiful japanese wares, rare
Cloisonne vases, rich embroideries and
beautiful paintings on paper and silk
by japanese artists.
In the japanese theater numerous
company Of native performers present
a diversified and lengthy program, in
Guiding juggling, dancing, acrobatic
stunts, magic, sword contests, the
now famous science OF Jiu Jitsu and
thrilling scenes from the Japanese
Russian war.

Exposition Notes.
Some Items OF Interest Concern.
ing the Big Show at Portland.

PORTLAND, Aug. %, l905.-De Cap
rios Administration band, the official
musical organization Of the Lewis and
Clark Exposition, is receiving much
praise. This band plays in connection
with all official functions, such as re-
ceptions, dedications, conventions and
the like. Mr.. De Caprio has surround
ed himself with musicians of high
order of merit, and as bandmaster
he is remarkably popular The band
plays music of the classical kind.
The famous Mormon choir, from
Ogden, Utah, was a feature Of the
Lewis and Clark entertainments the
past week. The choir gave several
concerts to large audiences in the
Auditorium. Miss Emma Lucy Gates,
the soprano soloist, who is a grand
daughter of the late Brigham Young,
made great hit. She is a beautiful
young woman and highly talented
singer, aside from the interest attach
ing to her ancestry.
The steamboat sail up the Colum.
bia river, the ride to Astoria and the
beach, and the various other side trips
from Portland, the exposition city,
continue to charm visitors who are In
the Northwest for the first time, not
to speak of those who have made
those trips before and are eager to 20
again. Many people, however, find
the attractions on the Exposition
grounds so interesting and so numer-
Gus that they prefer to spend all the
time at their disposal at the exposi-
ton. The evening band concerts,
fireworks and frequent carnival feat
ures are specially attractive.
Only six weeks more remain OF the
Lewis and Clark Exposition period.
The big fair will close October 10.
Nearly every one who visits 1t goes
home advising his friends to take ad-
vantage Of the opportunity to see this
wonderful exposition before 1t is too
late. When President Francis Of the
St. Louis Worlds Fair visited Port
land two weeks ago he urged the peo-
Pile, in a public address, to attend the
fair for their own pleasure and bene-
fit. "If you do not" he said, "you
will regret 1t only once, and that will
be all the rest of your life. You will
begin regretting it as soon as the fair
has closed its gates. This is the OPP
portunity OF a life time"
