Oregon Cherries
Make Sensation

Oregon Building, P. P. |. E.
Though Rogue river entered a few
boxes of wonderful cherries for judg-
ment by the jury of awards and had
a number of boxes on display in the
southern Oregon booth, Oregon
Cherry day, July /, was made a sue
cess by Willamette cherries, and a
ton of them made a glorious showing
banked in the center of the Oregon
building. Thousands came to admire
and throughout the three days they
were on display the magnificent
Royal AIMS, Bings and Lamberts
were the cause of unlimited and en-
thusiastic admiration. This ship
ment was Of the best that the Will
lamette valley has to offer and were
fully equal to the very finest that
California has been abel to show.
The exhibit was photographed by the
San Francisco dailies and written
about flowingly, and the festivities
Of Cherry day came in for favorable
mention. This special effort resulted
in wide and favorable advertising and
has done more to bring the state to
the attention of the public than any
-
thing except the winning of the big
awards. During the afternoon of
Cherry day practically 10000 sacks
of these beautiful cherries were given
away, and almost as many more could
have been distributed had they been
available. The Dalles, which grows
glorious cherries, could have helped
materially at this time to bring hon
ors to Oregon and the Rogue river
section could have done likewise, but
only Salem met the emergency and
as consequence the Willamette val
ley reaped the special reward. Rep.
resentatiye w. A. Taylor OF Marion
county worked hard to make the
showing and was ably assisted by
Chief Freytag. They are entitled to
credit and special consideration for
bringing Oregon added laurels. The
people OF Oregon, who desire that no
to create a favorable
opinion shall be lost, must remem-
ber that their representative here
can accomplish little except as the
public-spirited people in the differ
ent sections cooperate for the spec
al occasions. 1t is generally admit
ed on the grounds that Oregon actu-
ally produces the goods and that it |
S merely matter of getting them on !
display. If each section would re-
'pond even in a small way when the
,all comes, a tremendous showing
'ould be made and the burden would |
lot be heavy on any. AS it is, Ore
son is doing well, but it is up against
sreat odds, in the fact that California
S spending without stint and her
ields and orchards are at the door of
he exposition.

There has been a rumor circulated about town for some time past that Marshal l.. T. Erwin was endeavor- ing to induce Judge Bunnell to resign his judGeship ii order to enter the race for the delegateship next year, and that his place is to be filled by the appointment of G. Ellis Gardner, as soon as that trusty old Democratic warhorse can get back to North Caro- lima and secure the support of the con gressional delegation from that state.
 We did not at first believe there was anything to this rumor, but the an- nouncement made by Marshal Erwin in the Sunday Times, together with other coincident circumstances, serve as a rather complete confirmation.

 With Fred Douse and Robert Craw- ford as guard the marshal brought out three prisoners for McNeils Island and one insane patient for the Port land sanitarum. They were John Lige, sentencd to twelve years for attempted rape; Joe Sprunger, two years for illegal co-habitation; Bill Turner, twenty months for selling liquor to Indians The insane man is Sprudlick, of Fairbanks.

 EMPLOYES

Under the direction of Secretary of the Interior Lane, the men who work on the construction of the government railway in Alaska will receive the benefits of compensation for accidents under a system already arranged and announced. An order recently is- sued by the Secretary reads:
 "Employes of the Alaskan engineer ing commission shall have the right to receive compensation for injuries sus- tained in the course of their employ ment while actually in the Territory of Alaska at the rates and in the amounts, and on the conditions pro- vided in the act entitled An act grant ing to certain employees of the United States the right to receive from 1t compensation for injuries sustained in the course of their employment ap- proved May 30, 1908.
 "Claims for compensation on ac- count of injury or death resulting from accident thus occurring hereafter shall be settled by the chairman of the Al askan engineering commission, who shall as to all such claims, and under such regulations as he may prescribe, perform the duties which, under said act, are placed upon the secretary of commerce and labor, provided that when an injury results in death, claims for compensation on account thereof shall be filed with him within one year after such death"
 Secretary Lane also directs that the Alaskan engineering commission shall make no charge for the services of it's medical or surgical officers in Alaska or to any person who, while under con- tract with the commission, is injured in Alaska in the course of the govern ment's railway construction.

It was quite generally sup posed before the appointment of judge was made last winter that Mir. Gard ner was the marshal's favorite candi- date, so if Erwin can secure a few more of those reports from his depu- ties and thus induce Judge Bunnell to resign, the marshal will then have his own judge and be boss not only of the Democratic party, but of the communi- ty as well.
