Tho last Instruction given by tho proprietors wns that ail irons should bo switched off when tho glrln quit.

Tho telephone lino between Nome and Solomon was carried out and no word has been received from tho camp. In foi mor das Solomon had a population of 500, but It has dwindled to a small settlement. Merchants whoso stocks were inundated by tho rush of water afo busy rehabilitating their establish ments. Tho beach ends of all tho build- liiKS facing on Front streot were badly damaged by the pounding surf last night and tho cellars aro still filled with water. Tho sandsplt is a mass of wreckage. Tho surf today has receded and conditions are normal. airi' OMAHA, Nov. 5. Clifford Pinchot, former chief forester of tho United States under Itoosavolt, openly favors tho. election of Gilbert M. Hitchcock. democratlo congressman from Nebraska, for United States senator, The indorse ment camo in tho form ot a telegram received by Hitchcock today. "I appreclato tho Invitation to speak for you," telegraphed Plnchot from In dianapolis, "although I am unable to come. I recogniio your part In tho con servation fight and congratulate you on standing for progressive principles, Tho great division which strikes across party lines is botweon men standing for tho special Interests and men standing for tho people. I am proud of your friendship because you havo stood for tho people." Tho immenso bonoflta to tho Roguo River valley by reason of tho advertising valuo cauced by the win ning of tho first prlzo at the Can adian national npplo show at Van couver, B. C., are to bo felt immedi ately. As a result of this splendid achievement the Mcdford Commer cial club is taking advantage ot tho situation In a manner that will bo a record-breaker in publicity work, and with the great opportunities which the Roguo River valley fruit display In tho Minneapolis glass house and tho3c at tho Spokane na tional apple show, the United States land show at Chicago and tho na tional apple show at the latter place, all three of which will bo held dur ing tho present month, and whoro our world-famed apples and pears: will be thoroughly represented, tho field for exploitation and Instantan eous returns wero never better In tho era of Medford's great advertis ing campaign. Although nowa of tho Vancourer laurels wero only received hero on' the morning ot Novomber 2, the day following the announcement ot tho Judges at the Vancouver show, al ready tho Commercial club has adopted new literature, illustrated the double event ot champion hon ors at Spokane last year and Van couver this last week, and letter heads with the printed and illustrat ed facto aro being used in acknowl edging the many wires of congratu lation which have been received. Over 25,000 circulars aro now being printed, and como wero ready for distribution and passed through tho malls yesterday. With every pamphlet which tho Commercial club will send out until tho 1911 supply of literature has been Issued, theso circulars will bo included. They will bo sent to every name that can bo cecured throughout North Amor lea, and will bo distributed in equal manner through tho different real e3tato firms of this city. Manaser Malboeuf expects tnnt before 30 days are over 10,000 will have been scattered broadcast from this city 'hlone. A largo supply will bo on band for distribution at tho Spokane and tho Chicago falrss, mak Inc a total of over 30,000 during tho next four weeks, or at tho rato ot more than 1000 each doy. Every firm in Medford having outsldo 'cor respondence Is expected to uso tho. form of letterhead adopted by the Commercial club, and In every othor concelvablo way tho most vigorous camrclgn will bo carried on. Medford today has tho most gold en opportunity In Its career to brine lUelf before the wholo country. Tho winning of two blue-ribbons at two successive International applo fairs pocsesses an advantage tho value, of which It 13 difficult to estimate. ,lt places an Indelllblo stamp upon our performance at Spokano In 1009, and sweeps nsldo all possible ques tion as to the supremacy of Roguo river fruits.
