be made to have the bill made strong
er than the New York measure.
MADISON - One of the several
bills which will come in for the re-
moval of the state fair from Milwau-
kee will provide for it's location in
Wausau 1t is probable also that Osh-
kosh will be an applicant for the fair.
1t is not believed either bill will
pass, as the state board of agriculture
is greatly opposed to the removal Of
the fair from Milwaukee. Northern
Wisconsin members of the legislature
are not SO generally favorable to the
bill as the Wausau people might de-
sire, it is said.
MILWAUKEE The eleventh big
annual poultry, pigeon and pet stock
show given by the Wisconsin Feather

side Wisconsin, Illinois, Indiana, New
York and Minnesota contributing.
Over 1000 specimens were on exhibi-
ton. Mayor Bading gave an address
of welcome in which he congratulated
the association on the work they had
been doing.
MADISON-Judge Anthony Dono-
van, who was the father of the late
Judge John F. Donovan, Milwaukee,
died at Madison after an illness of
about a year, aged sixty-five years.
Judge Donovan had been municipal
judge of Dane county since 1892,
when he was elected over E. w.

his recent cases was that of Dog Face
Johnson, charged with murder, a year
ago.

Board Of Control.

The head Of at least one, and prob.
ably two Of the superintendents Of state
institutions Of Oregon will fall next
month, when the state board OF control
takes charge Of all except the higher
institutions Of learning. Tho board Of
control will assume It's more extensive
duties next Tuesday.
Governor West takos tho position
that all laws governing the present
bodies are repealed, and 40 the heads
Of the penitentiary, asylum and other
institutions must be reappointed
The position is also taken that mas.
much az the new law gives the board
Of control authority TO manufacture at
the state institutions anything It may
be considered advisable for uso Of the
inmates Of any Of the institutions, the
board eau print what may be noces.
sary and II Is probable that printers in
tho asylum and pouitentiary will soon
be employed in doing practically all
the printing. This means that another
effort will be made to put State Print
or Duniway out Of business and il is
considered certain that he will at once
take the matter into the court.
Duniway has paved the waS for this
course by putting II up 10 Governor
West to do certain jobs Of printing.

remember that there are different

Editor Capital Journal:

EullOf capital journal:
AS newcomer here who is interest.
ed in the welfare Of Salem, / was much
interested in your editorial recently in
which you brought out the cost of ma.
terials entering into the construction Of
concrete paving. You certainly are
pertinent in your inquiries, since If it
can be shown that 9Oc per square yard
will not buy the material for a con.
crete pavement, it will not only bring
the low bidding contractors to book,
but will certainly reflect upon the in.
telligence Of our street chairman. II
would appear, however, that If such
material cannot be bought cheap
enough to lay the street at any such
figure as, say, 0Oc, that the street com.
mittee, If nobody else in the city, would
or should know that the material alone
cost more than the contract price.
1t seems that these extremely low
bids do not invite any investigation as
to the quality and quantity of material
used. If some contractor should come
along and bid Zoe per square yard for
concrete pavement one would presume
that according to law" the contract
must go to the lowest bidder Now

as 9Oc would wake up the street com.

SALEM ELKS WILL
Be THERE JULY A
At Meeting Last Night Made All Ar.
rangements to Assist in Big
Celebration.

At the meeting held by the Elks
lodge last night, it was voted unani.
mously to make preparations to assist
Salem in celebrating the Fourth of
July. This decision on the part of the
Elks is of great Importance to the
coming Cherry Fair and Fourth of
July celebration, which was planned by
the citizens attending the mass meet.
ing held recently.
The antlered folk have the distinc.
ton of being about the only fraternal
order which recognizes national days
especially, and the lodge has for years
taken part in any event which has
been planned for the Fourth. 1t was
decided last night to appoint the vari.
Gus committees and instruct the mem.
bers thereof to work in conjunction
with the committees appointed at the
mass meeting held recently. That the
Elks will do their part in making the
celebration a grand success goes with
out saying, as the order is patriotic to
the core and Uncle Sam is its much be-
loved parent.
There With a Boost.
The Children 3 Playground associa.
tion will be given a good boost also, ac.
cording to the decision reached last
night by the Elks. The Elks lodge ball
team will sound the battle call next
Thursday afternoon at 4 o clock and it
expects the Illihee club aggregation Of
ball tossers to knock off the chip. The
fray will be on the Willamette field
and something will be flying every
minute. The proceeds of the game will
be turned over to the Fairgrounds as
sociation and every persons interested
in good ball and Fairgrounds, should
see the game.
About fifty members of the lodge
will go to McMinnville on June 7 to
take part in the dedication of the Elks
home which has just been completed at
that place.
Much laughter was provoked during
the storytelling contest at the meeting
last night. Roy Buckingham won the
prize for "getting away" with the
best yarn of the evening. After the
contest, the "big feed" was in order
and two new members were introduced
to the lodge goat and they passed
through the ordeal with grace, but were
not dispatched" "
