PORTLAND EXPOSITION GIVES
PROMISE TO BE THE EVENT
OF COAST.
Robert Burns Tells OF His Visit to
the Grounds While in
Portland.

THE Portland exposition this year
is going to be an immense affair."" said
Robert Burns, general agent Of the o.
r. & N. company, who returned this
morning from Portland. I'm fact it is
going to be much bigger show than
a majority of the people realize. While
in Portland 1 visited the grounds and
made an inspection of the buildings and
the grounds. The work Of getting the
grounds in shape is nearly completed
and they present a very pretty ap-
pearance. The roadways nave been
laid in an artistic manner and with
the beautiful buildings distributed
throughout the grounds at convenient
distances it is an imposing site. While
the exposition will not be as large in
area as the ST. Louis fair, still the ar
rangement of the buildings is such
that the people who visit the fair dur
ing the coming summer will be given a
better chance to view everything than
was possible at ST. Louis.
The big lake has been bridged and
the government now has large force
at work constructing it's buildings on
the island across from the main
grounds.
yesterday thousands of people
crowded the street cars all day going
to the grounds and getting some idea
how they would look when completed
The citizens of Portland are making
extensive preparations to care for the
many Visitors that are expected te
| throng the city during the time the ex-
| position is open. New hotels are being
erected in all parts of the city and
| hundreds of new structures are going
up near the grounds.
'The o. R. & N. company is arrang-
ing to handle large crowds of people
from eastern Washington, Oregon ant
Idaho. All the equipment possible is
being put in shape and concentrated a
Portland to accommodate the large
crowds that we expect to haul to Port

WALLA WALLA lARORINc MEN
WANT FIRST CHANCE ON
CITY WORK..
Federal Labor Union Takes Action
Council viii Be Asked to En-.
force Order.

A communication, calling attention
TO the fact that resolution, passed
by the city council year ago, giving
married men, resident laborers and
taxpayers the preference on all city
work was not being enforced, was
drawn up by the Federal Labor Union
at meeting held at Trades Council
hall last night and will be presented to
the council at the next meeting. The
union also petitions that the resolu-
ton be embodied in all contracts made
by the city and that any foreman or
others employing labor for the city
who declines to obey the order be COM
PEELED to resign.
There will be much city work this
year and we feel that we should be
given the preference ever outside la
borers inasmuch as most of us are
married men and taxpayers in the
city," said John Hodges this morning.
1T is hardly right for outside con-
tractors who may secure city work to
bring in outside workmen to compete
with the resident laborer. When the
matter was presented to the council a
year ago the business of the petition
was seen and there was not a member
of the council but what was willing to
make such an order The matter was
allowed to drift, merely because no
one in authority was on hand to push
it along. Now that spring work is
| opening up we feel that it is time that
something was done. The Walla Wal
| la Trades and Labor council will en-
dorse the resolution and we have hopes
that the council will take favorable
action" -.

ing exceedingly popular with the lit
lie folks. Also to give a suitable and
valuable prize to the elder patrons
each week. The curtain will raise to-
night on The Silver King one of

of the Equitable Life Assurance socie-
ty. The well-known financier is a
partner in banking house and an Of
fee of the insurance company.
1T is an open secret in the insur-
ance world that when this banking
house wishes to make a large loan for
stock underwriting or similar pur-
poses it gets it from this insurance
company through the officer who is
one of the partners in it's own firm.
Technically there is nothing improper
in these transactions.
If the collateral offered by the bank
ing house for loans depreciates in value
the bankers have put up cash to make
the difference good, SO the policy
holders are protected. Nevertheless,
this often has caused comment among
insurance men,
Equitable Fight Goes On.
The statement of Sanborn comes hot
the Equitable, and that the fight in the
Equitable by 40 means is finished was
brought to light~yesterday by the is
suance of a circular to the agency
force by President James w. Alexan-
der.
The circular declares to the agents
in so many words that in the recent
battle the Alexander forces won and
that the victory is of the greatest in
terest to the agency force.
Friends of James Hazen Hyde, when
shown the circular, were wrothy over
it. Hyde would say nothing about
the circular.

a dangerous person. and his candidacy
for Mayor is attacked by the capitalist
ic newspapers from The Tribune to The
Post, as revolutionary. The candidate
is a demagogue, but the platform pro-
poses no confiscation of private proper
ty and does not necessarily involve
municipal operation of public utilities.
The head of the Republican ticket, Mr.
WINS, is man of integrity and abil-
ity. His platform, not that of his par
ty, is municipal ownership and honest
efficiency. Nominally the most capital
istic platform is that of Tammany Hall,
which has renominated Mr.. Mcclellan.
Both he and Mr.. WINS are much better
than the rest of their tickets Mr..
Hearst is much worse than the rest of
his; but Mr.. Mcclellan has shown him
self unfortunately subservient to the
control of his party boss" and while
he has declared himself for an unparti-
san administration he would not be
able to carry out the best of good in
tentions if the nominees that stand on
his ticket for members of the Board of
Estimate and Apportionment should be
elected with him. This board, having
control of the vast business interests of
the city, is practically it's legislature
Public franchises of immense value are
about to be granted; it is for this board
to say on what terms. The person who
would succeed Mr.. Mcclellan in case
he should be elected to the governorship
is VIGOROUSLY unfit. No one of the mu-
nicipal tickets then can be unqualified
ly commended. Between the platforms
there may be legitimate choice. Most
important of all, none of these parties
have proposed for denomination District
Attorney Jerome, who is regarded on
all hands as man of absolute homes
ty. He has administered his office with
out fear or favor, and has been the best
District Attorney that New York ever
had. He deserves reelection, but he is
feared by political bosses of all parties,
and has offended many honest men by
the defects of his qualities. To oppose
his independent candidacy each party
has made distinctly partisan and I'M
worthy nominations. Under these cir
cumstances this much at least is clear,
that honest men, of whatever political
aftiliation, who wish the affairs Of their
own party to be honestly conducted,
should give him their unqualified sup
port.

This is the siXtY-fOurth anniversary
East Oregonian : E.O. (Pendleton, OR) 1888-current, 1905-10-14

Already the closing of the fair is
felt in Pendleton through a falling off
in the number Of people that have
been here of late while on their way
to and from the exposition city. To-
day and in fact the past week the ho-
tel registers have shown decided
falling off in patronage, and now that
the fair is at last closed 1t is not
thought there will be much travel
from this county to Portland for some
time to come.
During the latter part of the sum
mer and especially in September,
travel through Pendleton to the fair
has been heavy, and more than once
all of the rooms in the three large
hotels here have been taken before
evening. As a result the hotels and
restaurants have done well, and the
close of the fair will be felt by them
to some extent, at least.
Also the county people passing
through Pendleton to the fair have
stimulated business considerably fol
the stores during September, for many
have made purchases here while II
town between trains. However. there
are few merchants who will regret the
close of fair, for they are all anxious
! for conditions to settle down to th'
normal state, and they know that II
the long run the fair will have inter
fered with business here by takint
much money out of the county.
In sneaking on the subject thi
