The Lewis and Clark Fair Con
tinued "Portland the Rose
City." Picturesque and His
toric Places Near Portland.
The Lewi utid Clark Ucutenuiul
Extiosition is the first international
exposition under the pationageof the
United state Uovernment ever held
west of the Rocky Mountains; it de
monstrates the marvelous pi ogress
of the 1'acilio Uoast section.
This Fair is different from other
Fairs in many ways, and especially
in compactness one is able to see
the Fair without being tired to
death, as they are at most Fairs,
and this is one great inducement the
officials are offering. The buildings
are arranged near together so that
one can visit several of tne main
buildings without doing much walk
ing.
THE AGRICULTURAL EXHIBIT,
Across the Columbia court from
the Foreign exhibit palace which
was spoken of in last week's paper
is the Agricultural palace, the
largest building at the Fair. It is
460x210 feet in dimensions and cost
$74,059. The dome is a particular
feature of the building it rises from
the center and is of such large pro
portions that it can be seen not only
from all parts of the grounds but
for miles down the Willamette
river.
The exhibits in this building arc
divided into dxeient gronps all
kinds of agricultural products, and
a great many of the Slates that
haven't buildings of their own have
display here; for instance,the North
Dakota exhibit has the Itoo$erclt
cabin,which was on exhibition at the
Su Louis fair. Ihc cabin was
moved from 8 miles south of Medo-
ra, South Dakota, and re-built ex
actly as it stood on the banks of the
J.i t lie Missouri river. It i loxda
feet and has two rooms, frejidint
Rooscvtlt lived in this log house
three years, leading a cow-boy's life.
The Nebraska exhi'iit also is espe
cially good, hnving us it docs an
auditorium made of grains, in which
moving piol ures may be seen every
hour in the day. 1 he pictures de
monstrate life in Nebraska and are
a credit to the State, as well as a
great advertisement for it. On the
the outside of the exhibit is the
prize-winner steer, "Champion,"
which has been mounted.
The Washington, Oregon and
California giaiu and fruit exhibits
in this buildiug were fine. In the
Oregon horticultural exhibit were
some specimens from a cherry tree
35 years old. The gentlemuu in
charge said that 4000 pounds of
cherries were pickad from this tree
this year, i bis would be w busneis.
He also told us that cherries were
selling at from 3) to 4 cents per
round, so this tree netted its owner

not kept in com storage tor. tne
Fair. They had been kept in dark
cellars. All kinds of exhibits rela
ting directly or indirectly to agri
culture were shown in this interest
ing buildiug.
TKAN8POHTAT10N, ELECTRICITY AND
MACHINERY.
Here visitors see almost every
thing on wheels. A new giant loco
motive, with four ponderous drivers
on either side, measuring a little
more than 70 feet from the rear of
it tender to the front of its pilot,
and weighing 160 tons, is beside the
first engine ever used in Oregon,
called the "Oregon Pony." The four
wheels of the locomotive are only a
little larger than barrel hoops; the
boiler is about the size of a potato
barrel, and the whole engine is only
about 13 feet long. The contrast
between the two is very vivid. A
gigantic walking crane carries visi
tor, noni one part or. me Duuuing
to another, permitting them to look
down on alf exhibits and see them
dearly.
The electricity and machinery dis
play are full of life and motion,
bowing wonderful progress made
in the last few year.
OTHER BUILDINGS.
Manufacture, Varied Industries
and Liberal Arts are grouped in one
banding, lhe displays are classi
fied according to the varied indus
tries, and many participant are
making thorough and instructive
exhibit of processing. In the Mines
and Metallurgy building is a per
fect revelation of the mining weaitn
of the West. One not only see the
collection of minerals and ore in
glass cabinets, but various type of
mining machinery in operation.

Oregon, Washington and California
have the best, though nil ot them
are very pretty and attractive. The
Oregon building is merely u rest
pavillion. 'Jt hits no exhibits but
is beautifully furnished, and people
not only from Oregon, but from
every other State are given a most
hearty welcome.
California is built to characterize
the State's earlier history. The plan
ot the building is in the form of a
ureek cross ZOO feet square. i lia
facade of each wing is a repl ca of
one of California s twenty-one mis
sions. The mission bells ring every
evening at six o'clock, announcing
the fact that the building is closed
for the day. California seems to
lead in the fruit display, but Oregon
folio ws cbsely in her footsteps.
Washington s Mate building con
tains 26,000 square feet of lloor
space. It is full of agricultural,
horticultural, forestry and hsiiury
exhibits. Missouri yppropriutcd
$35,000 for a State building and lias
one of the handsomest at the Fair.
Utah has n modest structure which
contains splendid exhibits. Promi
nent among them are the Edu
cational exhibits of the Latter Day
Saints.
Idaho, Montana, Illinois, New
York, Mansiiclnisetts and Colorado
have buildings of llieir own with
splendid exhibits, showing products
ot all kinds.
The Young Women's Christian
Association building is headquarters
tor women. It is a quaint looking
log building with verandas all
around it. Lunches are served on
the porches. It is near tho groui
of main buildings and is lurgclv
patronized on account of conve
nience. The Eastern Star degree of Ma

Oregon trail, nlong which the early
pioneers found their way to this new

amusement street. Some one has
suggested that it would bo like a
circus without a clown,or a Vourth

ornate bridge which spans the lake
and connects the peninsular with
the mainland. Ou account of the

One ha but to visit Portland to
realise that it ha been appropriately
named roses grow and bloom in
open air all the year round. They
are blooming in almost every yard,
around the humblest homes, as well
as the most beautiful. The public
authorities of Portland, in order to
make their city more attractive for
this season, gave away 25,000 ro-?e
plants and offered prizes for the
most beautiful effects obtained- in
private yards. Some of the most
tender roses in this part of the

OUR RALEIGH LETTER.
President Roosevelt to Visit
State Fair aad Make Short
Address Statue to be Erec
to Senator Vance Other
News.
Raleigh, N C, August 21. A
great deal of interest is manifested
by the general public in the up
preaching visit of President Roose
velt to Raleigh on the occasion of
the next State Fair, exactly eight
weeks hence, and it is probable that
on Wednesday, Thursday and Friday
of Fair week this year the lurge
attendance will break all records.
President Roosevelt, it should be
in mind, will attend on Thursday
and will deliver a brief address from
a stand to be erected within the
race-track circle, where 25,00 peo'
pie may easily get within hearing
distance.
A the President is a fine horse
man and fend of the saddle, it has
been suggested that a tine charger
(which has already been picked out
by a horsemau here) be placed at his
disposal while here and that the trip
from the city to the fair-groands be
made in the saddle, accompanied by
hundred or more mounted escort.
This would probably not lie quite
as "dignified" as some might desire
aad would be quite a departure from
the old-time 4-horse open carriage
and silk tiles. But the President
is not very strong on the "dignity"
feature and he is mere apt than not
to prefer the chargei to the carriage.
if he is given his choice,
Secretary 1'ogue aud his assistants
re arranging to make the State Fair
this year, per se, the most mer.ton
on of all. The 'midway" altrac

many and caused some criticism,

"onatructian auj other improvemente
on the grounds are being made.
The races will be fine aud liberal
purses have been announced. And
the fact will not be lest sight f that
this is aa Agricultural Fair, and the
features of farming, dairying, stock
growing and kindred pursuits, will
form the principal exhibits of the
fair. Every progressive farmer iu
North Carolina ought to have some
thing on exhibition here.
As usual, the "annual social re
union of the people of North Caro
lina," which by common consent
concentrates itself in Itulcigh each
October on the State fair grounds,
will this vear materialize again only
on a larger scale than ever before.

A movement has been inaugurated
by the North Carolina Historical
and Literary Association, which has
its headquarters in Italeigb, and
which will hold its next annual
meeting during State Fair week here,
in October, to raise funds for secur
ing and placing in 8tatuary Hall at
Washington a suitable statue of
Zebulon B Vance. Active steps will
be taken at the annual meeting to
accomplish the desired object. Each
orate is eutiueu w two stamen iu
Statuary Hall, but as yet the
'niches set apart for North Caro
lina are vacant.
It is suggested by soma that the
Association should make an effort to
fill both "niche" at the same time,
while other take issue on that prop
osition. Ode reason of the opposition
is because the people of the State
are not fully agreed npon who should
be tuns honored, along with auce.
By the way: By what modus oner
an'di is this decision to 'm arived at,
and will it not require action on the
part of the legislature to authorize
the placing of these statues?
It is learned that Mr Howard A
Banks, for several years editorial
writer on the Charlotte Observer,
more recently with a leading Pennsyl
vania paper, has been engaged as a
member of the editorial staff of the
new Republican daily, the Industrial
News, soot to begin publication at
Greausbero. Mr Banks is one of the
most entertaining and able writers
that ha been aoanected with North
Carolina journalism.
Work.
The work which presents no diffi
culties to be overcome soon grows
uninteresting.
There are workers so anxious
to catch time by the forelock that
tbey almost tear the forelock off.
If it is true that good -vork implies
that the workman knows himself,
it is equally true that the best work
shews that he ha forgotten himself.
There i only one right way to
work aad it is neither in doing
thin its before thev are started, nor
in doing them all over again after
they are finished.
Go to some successful workman
and ask which of his day were hap
piest, aad it's long odds that he 11
say to you, "Those in which I began
my career.
It i only when at work that man
fnlfills his proper place in God's
creative scheme. They are indeed
rare exception who "also serve, who
only stand and wait."
The world ia altogether too restric
ted in its as of the word "art."
Work of any kind, done superlative
ly well, is art dusting picture a
well aa painting them.
A good worker is prettyjmuch like
a horse, alter all. When its wp-hill
going, don't hurry him, and be sure
ai d take good care of him once be'
