PORTLAND FAIR OPENED.
President Roosevelt Starts Machinery
By Pressing Golden key.

PORTLAND, June l. - BY light
touch on key Of gold, President
Roosevelt, standing on the far eastern
shores of the United States, this noon
set In motion myriads of wheels, pom.
derous engines and intricat mechau-
isms 5000 miles away on the distant
shores Of the Pacific and formally
opened the Lewis and Clark exposi-
ton. An immense throng had gath.
cred for the initiatory exercises. There
were parades and speeches, blare Of
brass, clang of gongs and the hum
that comes from the excitement Of
jostling crowds. Noted men from all
over America we're present, including
Vice President Charles Warren Fair.
banks, Speaker Joe Cannon, of the
house of representatives, and other
prominent members of congress. The
event was performed under conditions
presaging complete success to THE
historical commemoration of the
blazing of the trail to ''old Oregon"
by Captains Meriwether Lewis and
William Clark, who, commissioned
by President Jefferson, explored the
great Oregon country 100 years ago.
The opening exercises were brief,
though impressive. Departing from
precedent the gates to the exposition
were opened early in the morning so
that crowds could assemble before the
ceremonies. The first demonstration
was a parade of the grounds, in which
military, civic and spectular features
predomin ated. The formal exercises
were held on the shores of Guilds
lake, where the slope of the ground,
terraced and provided with seats,
formed natural amphitheater, seat
ing many thousands OF people.
The states of Oregon, Washington
and Idaho, in which June had been
declared legal holiday in honor Of
the centennial, furnished thousands of
visitors. The trains of yesterday
brought the vanguard OF the excur.
sionists and today the railroads and
boat lines entering Portland have
been taxed to their utmost. Never in
her history has Portland been called
upon to care for 80 many people and
it is estimated that over $4,000 per-
sons passed through the exposition
gates during the day.
When President Good of the Lewis
and Clark exposition took his posi-.
ton on the speakers stand to an.
nounce that the ceremonies were about
to commence he was greeted with
terrific applause from tens of thous-
ands of people who had assembled
Within hearing distance Of the speak
ere stand, and similar demonstrations
of happy people greeted all the speak
ers of the day, perhaps the greatest
enthusiasm being aroused by the ap-
pearance of Mayor Williams and of
Speaker Cannon upon the rostrum.
The program was carried out with
but few changes in the original idea.
A feature which was looked forward to
with great expectancy, the playing Of
"America'' on the Ginning bells in
the government building was unavoid.
ably omitted, the electrical apparatus
by which the chimes are operated be.

moment. The most notable day and
occasion in the history of Oregon and

BRADY CONFIRMED.

If is now conceded that the United States senate has confirmed the ap- nointment of John G. Brady for third term as governor of Alaska. While there are many people in Alaska who favored the appointment of man more in sympathy with the business growth of the district and the encour- agement of the white settler; who have been more than disgusted with the adog in manager" policy of the old gov ernor-now reappointed-yet, inasmuch as their wishes are not to be considered in the matter, they are resigned to wait patiently for such time when the Alaskan will have a voice in his own affairs.
 We are willing to concede that the mistake made by the President is mistake, and a natural oue at that. It was impossible that he should under stand as do Alaskans how much really depends on the active ability of the chief executive: and where that quality is totally absent,whata a disastrous chain of consequences it may entail.
 It is to be sincerely hoped that the suggestions of the President in regard to increasing the powers of the govern or may not, at the present time, be acted upon. for the reason that an off ger. who at the conclusion of his second term, is no more in touch with the peo- ple than is MT. Brady, cannot act for their real good. He may have self-ex- alted ideas, evolved in his private office. of female immigrants, coal land laws. saw mills and Siwash Sunday schools, but the real business of this country is mining and fishing, and whatever is more than this is mostly foI-de-roI. at the present time. If these two industries are to be boosted,pushed and advertised, there is an immediate era of prosperity in store for us, but if not Alaska will yet for many years be an uncertain .enture.
 It is also to be hoped that the storm of adverse criticism that has swept over the head of Mir. Brady while the matter of his reappointment was pend, ing, may cause him to take different view of the situation and come out of his hole, meet the people half way learn their wants, desires, ambitions and the difficulties with which they have to contend, and in return for the honor of the high office he holds, helE push along the car of progress instead of retarding its cou rse.

The initial number of the "Servian Montenegrin" has made it's appearance. It is published in the town of Douglas by MT. Bozo Bechir. It presents neat appearance geographically, and has a good advertising patronage. As to the subject matter, we are entirely in the dark, as the type is Servian. 1t is, so far as our knowledge goes, the only paper published in Alaska, in any but the English language. Here's luck to the new Douglas paper
Douglas Island news., 1905-01-18

On the l6th the following telegram was sent out from Washington: John Green Brady was confirmed by the Senate Saturday for his appointment as the third term governor of Alaska. The opposition presented their side to She confirmation committe during the week, and insisted on delay to await the arrival of numerous protests en- route from Alaska, but the matter was put through regardless of the Alaska protests. The Alaskan lobby do not take kindly to the confirmation, and openly express their disapproyal. President Roosevelt was appealed to by the Alaskans, supported by several influential party leaders, but the Presi- dent refused to interfere. The charge against Brady was his total lack of identification with the republican organization in Alaska, and a third term appointment. The party leaders were against Brady, but feared to op- pose the President, and the powerful chnreh lobby. Several members of the Alaskan lobby now come out in unmistakable iudorsement of terri torial government for Southeastern AL aska, and return to their homes with the intention of starting a movement iu that direction.
