In view of the condltlons that prevailed
the travel to the grounds was not sumclent

Aside from the benefit to the lnnd

reduced to its present size , thirty Inches on
each of its four sldcs.
The exhibit is enclosed by a wall whlcim
15 ulllized for dlsplaying tilt' vnrlous fancy
grhssus which grow i1 Oregon aid the
rtrats of various cereals , The Oregon exita-
aunts edl attention to time bright color of the
strawy and grains , whielm timoy say Is due to
lire fact that the farmer in that country Is
nut harassed b ) ' rains during time harvest
( t t season , tslulch discolor botit straw
mid graim , murnlng them dark. Antomg the
products anmtuiged about the wall whidm are
out of the ol dhmary nmy be meutlomed tam-
ides of ! temp , the stalk ( vu feet In height.
This hetllim is said to leave a longer fiber and
greater leublle strenglim than imenmp grown In
arty other section. Sugar cane twelve feet
4 to height Is also tU time collection , the ramie
being used priuclpally for feedlog stock , nl-
though time farmers uako syrup ( rout It.
Thu protUtollon of "teazles" Is one of the
l tidngs for whlchm Oregon Is noted In certain
; quarters. The ordinary cltizeu has au parr
I' tlcular use for a "teazle ; ' but time matufae-
' y , . ' . . - . - -
d
Lure of all kinds of woolen goods , as well
as of cotton goods having a "nap , " requires
the use of these products of mho soil. To n
layman a teazle looks like nn ordinary thistle -
tle burr , but It Is the product of n plant
which grows to time height of about ten feet
anti there are very few places in the world
where the plant thrives. Oregon has two or
three sections where time raising of teazles
is a thriving Industry anti the burrs are
shipped to woolen tnllis nil over the world.
Several varletjcs of wheat are exhibited ,
especial atlenticm being drawn to the kind
called "golden chat ( . " The grain of this
is very large and plump , and It Is said that
the average yield Is from sixty to sixty-live
bushels per acre , Among the varieties of
oats Comnmissloner Dosch and Snperln
tendent Morgan lay partlctmlar stress on
ono known as "black winter , " wimlch is
sown In the fall the same as winter wheat.
The kernels are mostly black , and It. Is said
that the yield is about 126 bushels per
acre ,
One point whiclm the Oregon advocates
take care to liminess upon visitors is the
fact that all of the grains grown In that
section overrun the standard weights by
several ponds to time bushel.
in addition to agriculture nnml forestry the
fish resources of Oregon are shown in a
limited sway by ntenns of fresh rill in big
glass Jars. Some of the Immense salmon
whlclm are caught in Oregon streams have
been shipped to Mr , Dosch and placed in n
chemical sohmtlon , which preserves their imp-
penrnnce. A shipment of these big fish was
received a few days ago , but some of them
were too large to yitut in the jars , which
are about four feet high and about twelve
inches In dlameler , One of these dainty
morsels formed the basis for a little dinner
given by Mr. Dosch yesterday to a few Invited -
vited guests. Ilesldes the salmon , sturgeon
and other varieties of fish shown in jars , time
fish industry is represented by n number
of "razor clams" In Jars , Timese are considered -
sidered great delicacies and are much sought
after. A case of samples of Cotawold wool
attracts the attention of visitors to this ex-
hibit. The wool nmeasures fourteen Inches
In length , this abnornmal length being ne-
connted for by the fact that In time mild
climate of time sheep district the wool grows
during nine months In the year.
More mudcrlal for the Oregon exhibit Is
cxpcctefl today.

WASIIINGTON , July G-The anuexnliot
of Hawaii Is now accomplished so far as time
legislative branch of the govermuuemit is con-
cerned.
Quite unexpectedly the resolullons providing -
ing for time annexatlon of the islands were
brought to a vote in the senate hate this
afternoon , and they were passed by the decisive -
cisive vote of 42 to 21 ,
Early In today's session of the senate cou-
fercncea of Ume leaders on both sides of time
chamber were held , anti a tacit agreement
was reached ( hot a vote should be lnkeu to-
mgorrow or Friday at the latest. The opponents -
ponents of annexation had practically con-
chided their arguments , and as they hod no
desire to keep the senate lu session by purely
dilatory tactics they announced their w'll-
Iingness that. a vote should he taken as soon
as Mr'blte , Mr. Pettigrew anti Mr. Allen
had finished their speeches.
Neither Mr. Vm'hilc tor Mr. I'ettlgrety
spoke to great length , but Mr. Allen thought ,
when he began , tint his speech might occupy
line renmainder of the day anti a part of to-
morrow. however , he conchded to elininate
a part of the matter he ltad prepared , turd at
4:16 : he coutpleted ids speech.
It was evident instantly that n vote was
at lend. The word was passed softly
through the corridors and eonunittee rooms ,
aul in a few minutes every senator at the
capital was in his seat. The galleries flllen
rapidly and menmhers of time house of representatives -
resentatives , learnlug that a vote WUS to be
taken , came hurriedly to time senate side of
time great marble pile to wItness proceedings
that will be historic.
The test vote came up on an cuuemlment
offered' by Mr.1'hite of California , it was
offered trlth no expectancy that It would bd
adopted , but merely to place the Ideas and
ophmloms of the opponents of artnexatlot on
record , It tvns rejected by a vole of 40 to 2a ,
hulicatlimg that the ammmmexmtthoimlsts 'ere
strongly In the majority.
Amendment after amendment was offered ,
but the advocates of the resolutions stunt
together , gaining rather than losing strength
an tune anientinent votes ,
Finally , at 630 ; p. in. , line resolutioma
theunselves , fn precisely the torn they were
received from the house of representatives ,
were repo'teti to the senate and the roil
call began. lulomse interest was nmuifestcd
by every spectator. Not a sound was heard
In the chaniber except the call of the clerk
anti the responses of senators.
Itesul ( Is Sppmtutded.
Whom time vice president announced the
vote by which tlte resolullons were passed
a tremeim orris wave of applause swept
through the gaile1cQ , winch the vice president -
dent made uo effort to check. Those wino
had avocaled line resolutions exptessed their
pleasure by slinking hands with ono another
and on all sides evklent relief trot shown

so much good-uaturcd c mnfustoa ( xitled that

who voted against the resolutions , nithemmgh
