Im In this connection it ls Interesting to note the war being made upon the hoop skirt by Mra, Arthur Stansard (Joba Strange Winter) the novelist. Noting the movemeat originating In Paris and extend- fing to this country, Mra Stannard has written the newspapers, call- tHe upon the women of Engtand to unite againat the threatened fash- fon. Mra Stannard says she stopped a revival of crinotine twelve Years ago. She got 21,000 women to write post card pledging them- tives to refuse to wear the hoop skirta. Now she calls upon the ‘Women to repeat this protest. It is to man and his vile lust for money, says Mra. Stannard, that the shame of if beiongs. ‘The factories Im Parts are otready at work making the hoop skirts. ‘The crinoliniat sees money Im the scheme and believe that once the fashion is set every wom an will follow it, In this country, so far as known. there ts no organized opposition te-4he introduction of the crinoline. Only recently a cetebrated mod- fat diepiayed the advantages of the hoop skirt to the dress makers of Chicago. Ht was stated by this promotor that the new happ skirt is not the Johnny -comes-marching-home circumference of forty years ago. It lacks both Im radius and fm length and te only designed to show “a fullness about the hips.” But, once introduced, whe knows the length —and breadth—to which it may go? It is much to be feared Mrs. Stonnard has started in too late to keep the women from following the band wagon. es The Portland Fair ‘Thursday the Lewis and Clark exposition at Portland was thrown opee to the world, with impreastve cermonies ‘The leaders of nations, the governors of many commonwealths, the representatives of scores of municipalities graced the event by their presence.

Ten states have perceived virtues tn the Centennial, with the re- mit that ten magnificent bulidings greatly enbance the attractiveness of the exposition site, and these, with their exhibits, represent an @utlay of $1,000,000. Manufacturers im various parts of the country have appreciated the excellence of the Pacific northwest as a market. Their requests for exhibit space were such as to nocemittate the construction of new buli@ings. In complying with these demands the exposition corpor- ation was forced to spend at least a hundred thousand dollars more than was originally Intended. With the opening day, the people of Portiand, of the state of Oregon, or, in fact, of the entire Pacific Rorthwest, may well feel felicitated that their enterprise wilt com- mence absolutely free trom debt This record is without precedent. In exposition history no world’s fair on opening day was without thousands of creditors clamoring for settlement, or, at least, worrying as @ result of vague apprehen- sions which arose in their minds as to the possible success or failure of the enterprise.
