and prospects excellent for rolling up
another half million before the gates
are closed for the last time on the
night of October IA, the Lewis and
Clark exposition is an assured financial
success. The attendance demonstrates
also that the fair has pleased the peo
pie, and that is another source a graft
fication. 1t is evident that the enorm
GUS attendance could not have been
rolled up unless the fair had received
frequent testimor ials from early visit
ors.
1t is evident now that the fair will be
in point of attendance and in every
other respect, the most successful ex-
position ever held. Comparisons with
the records made at the Trans siississ-
ippi exposition at Omaha, an exposj
ton of about the same magnitude as
that now drawing to close, and which
has been generally conceded to have
been the most successful of all fairs.
show that the exposition will outdo
the showing made by the eastern en-
terprise. This is considered more
remarkable when the statement is
made that Omaha had a popul ton of
100000 within days journey. while
there reside within similar radius of
Portland not more than 100000 souls.
The stock show, which opeued on
september 10, for period of ten days,
proved the crowning feature of the
fair. 1t was a notable success, being
by far the biggest show of the kind
ever held in the west, and by far tile
best attended. During the time it was
! running the attendance at the fair
showed daily increase over the aver
age of about 5000, and the week ending
September "a was the largest in point
of attendance of any during the fair
period. The past week, with the stock
show as an attraction during the first
five days, and Portland day ou SArur-
day, promises to be still bigger, and
probably will show total Of 100000
admissions for the seven days. On
Sunday, September "a, the Sunday al
tendance record was bettered by sew
eral thousand, when the turustiles
registered Il, ,l68 admissions.
The Lewis and Clark poultry show,

in favor of the show, and have entered
their choicest birds, while from the
east are number of entries of unusu-

A Portland paper prints communi-
cation from r. Schneidewind, manager
of the Igorrotes now on exhibition at
the Lewis and Clark exposition, in
which MIR. Schneidewind declares that
dog eating, as practiced by the Igor
rotes, does not involve cruelty. The
statement is made also that dog is a
tribal dish with the Igorrotes, who eat
practically all animals, and that it
takes the place of the turkey which
Americans eat on Thanksgiving Day,
the difference being that the barbarian
subjects of Uncle Sam celebrate
thanksgiving day more frequently.

three and two-sevenths acres of wheat
yielded 22l. Eighty-four acres of grain
averaged 6S bushels. The average yield
of oats in that section is 100 bushels to
