President Taft sent his second
veto message to congress on Thurs
day, this one voicing his disapproval
of the wool schedule.
The message will be accepted as
an indication that no tariff bill pre-
pared in advance of report of the
tariff board on schedules affected
will be signed by the president. It
follows:
II return without my approval
house bill No. 11,019. with state
ment of my reasons for so doing.
Points Out His Policy.
"The bill is an amendment of the
|existing tariff laws and readjusts the
customs duties in what is known as
schedule X, embracing wool and the
manufactures of wool.
II was elected to the presidency
as the candidate Of a party which in
its platform declared its aim and

Salem, Ore, Aug. 21.-John Min
to, the first secretary of the Oregon
State Fair, is going to be present
at the opening of the semi-centen-
NAL of this project September II
next and he promises to DE in the
grandstand every day for the week
the fair is to be held This despite
his years and the fact that he has
not missed an Oregon State Fair
since the organization fifty years ago.
This is the news Frank Meredith,
SECRETARY of the Salem project, has
received from Mr.. Mimic.
According to this veteran, the first
Oregon State Fair started suspi-
ciously, wound up in debt, redeemed
itself and after fifteen years of pros
perity and as evidence of good will
acquired the grounds comprising
eighty acres at Salem from the coun-
ty court as a gift.
I'VE told the County Court at the
time we were broke" recited Mr.
Mimic, that if fifty of our farmers
went away from Salem every year
to attend the state fair and each one
spent but $40 each, $500 was taken
out of the county and that on the
other hand, if 500 farmers were at
tracted here and they only spent the
same amount, it brought SIS, 900 into
the citv and county
AT the time of which speak we
only needed $4,000 from the County
Court to save our property. The
Court listened, gave us the money
and Salem has the great state fair
which would not like to miss
From such beginning has grown
the Oregon State Fair to which r.
900 persons paid admission last wear.
To such an extent has this fair
grown that this year there are $21.-
900 in cash purses for the harness
races alone. There are two events
with $4,000 purses each and in an
other event the purse is $1,000. In
nve events the purses are 81 900
eacn. There is one $1,000 purse and
numerous smaller events. All

OREGON STATE FAIR HAS ACCOMPLISHED
MUCH GOOD; MUCH MORE IS PROMISED

away down in California there have
come SO entries for the harness
events to be decided at this fair.
There is to be steeple chase event
that is to go four times around the
inside of the trotting track. From
all indications the list will fill the
full sixteen entries expected by the
fair officials.
Aside from the racing events there
will be exhibits from nearly every
county in Oregon. Ben Worsley will
take his canned flowers from the
Astoria Centennial to the Oregon
State Fair intact. The Clatsop
County Court has authorized him to
make this exhibit, and Worsley,
about whom Sunset Magazine wrote
in the August issue, will have COM
plete line of fruits, grains and
grasses from the county at the
mouth of the Columbia river.
Those who are interested in rails
ing prunes in the Willamette Valley
have arranged special exhibit to
boom the industry and the hop rails
ers of the state who at this time are
offered 40 cents for their crop are
going to show the thousands of visit
ors what they have to offer in this
line.
Governor Oswald West is keeping
closely in touch with the develop
ment of the plans for holding the
fair and L. w. Hill. president Of the
Great Northern Railway Company,
has promised to come all the way
from st. Paul to deliver an address
on the good roads question. His
father, the Hon. James ]. HILL. the
nation builder. says he will also de-
liver an address II his health per-
mits.
The plans for this fair are COM
prehensive and much care is being
taken to make 1t huge success. All
the railroads have granted reduced
fares on account of the project and
extra equipment is to be in Oregon
! and Washington to take care Of the
i thousands who are expected to Join
the permanent fair campers. There
will be special music. IRE works and
numerous free attractions during the
week in addition to the big Parker
outfit Of carnival shows.

..More than q million OF our coun-

the country's capital is invested IN

are almost wholly dependent on the
prosperity Of the wool grower and

ately estimated, 100000 of the
American people will be seriously in

:'The Morgan Guggenheim syndi.

selves supply all necessary money at
an interest charge of less than per

small as the investment would be to

Most important of all is control
of transportation facilities by the
government. 1t would forever re-
move the irresistible temptation Of
discrimination, rebates and corrup-
ton which have characterized the
worst period of our railroad opera
tion."
Mr.. La Toilette declared that the
people were waging a losing fight
against the corporations in Alaska
Between the great storehouse Of ma
tural resources and those who are
trying to develop it, he said, was
to be found the enormous power
of the greatest concentration OF cap
ital that the world has ever known.
Mr.. La Toilette found parallel
to the present situation in Alaska IN
the struggle in the anthracite coal
fields of Pennsylvania a quarter OF

SATISFACTORY STATEHOOD
BILL PASSED BY CONGRESS

Washington, Aug. 19.-Statehood
for Arizona and New Mexico now
awaits only the perfunctory approx
al of President Taft. The Flood
Smith resolution admitting these
territories into the Union with the
judiciary recall feature of the Ari-
IONA constitution eliminated to meet
the objection which caused Presi-
dent Taft to veto the original state
hood bill was passed by the House
today without the formality of a
roll call.
Having been passed by the Sem
tae in identical language, the resolu-
ton will go to the White House as
soon as the Vice-President and
Speaker formally attach their sig
natures.
No attempt was made in the
House to pass over the Presidents
veto the original bill which contain
ed the judicial recall provision.
The joint resolution provides for
Arizona's admission with the consti-
tuition adopted by the convention of
July 20, 1910, and later ratified by
the Arizona voters, upon the ''funda-
mental condition" that article of
the constitution relating to the re-
call of public officers shall be held
and construed not to apply to Jul
dicial officers and that the Arizona
people shall give their assent to that
construction.
The San Juan islander. [volume] (Friday Harbor, Wash.) 1898-1914, 1911-08-25

Washington, Aug. 18.-Statehood
for New Mexico and Arizona on a
basis acceptable to President Taft
was approved by the senate today
through the provision of the Flood
Smith resolution, presented by Sem
ator William Alden Smith, chairman
of the committee on territories.
The resolution was adopted SO to
8, afer debate in which the house
was charged with evading vote or
the presidents statehood veto, and
in which the president was charged
with trying to coerce the people OF
Arizona on the proposed recall OF
judges.
To Be Heard.
The senate measure will be con-
sidered in the house tomorrow, and
that body will be able to pass it, ii
it chooses to do SO, without having
to vote first on the repassage OF the
vetoed resolution.
The new resolution will go to the
president tomorrow or Monday.
The new resolution requires that
Arizona shall eliminate from its new
constitution the recall Of judges pro-
vision before it shall be admitted to
the Union. New Mexico is instructed
to vote again on a change In its
constitution designed to make the
act more easily amendable, but it IL
not made a condition OF New Mex
ico's statehood that the people ap-
prove the change.
Resolution Quiet.
The vetoed resolution rested in the
house without action. Senator Brfs-
tow, of Kansas. announced he would
not support any other resolution I'M
til the house had acted on the vetoed
measure. Chairman Flood, of the
house territories committee, was IN
the senate chamber most of the af-
tern0on. and it was generally under
stood that house Democratic leaders
were anxious for the opportunity for
voting on the new resolution, rather
than to be forced to vote on the
vetoed one.
