EASTERN CROP
A
POOR
Are AppJt Buyers fieariig
Marketand.Dccciriig
Local Growers?
Is there a concerted movement among
buyers to misrepresent eastern fruit
crop conditions, ami by making west
ern growers believe that a record apple
crop is being producotl in eastern states
secure Oregon apples nt al ow figure?
Such is the belief of mauy local grow
ers, who confidently look for high prices
tot rule this winter.
That buyers ar bearing the market
is indicated by the following from a St.
Louis paper, giving estimates gather
ed by the national applegrowers' con
gress, showing that the east orop is
for below the average iu quantity and
quality:
Estimates as Reported.
Estimates of the apple crop in the
United States, made yesterday by the
American Applegrowers ' congress, at
the last session of its convention at the
Southern hotel, showed a gloomy out
look for the fruit this year. The best
promised by any district was a normal
crop, and tins promise was held out only
by the districts which did not. suffer
from the copious spring rains which
washed the pollen out of the blooms
and from the killing frost which came
about the end of April. The estimate of
the statistics committee, presided over
by .1. Mack Tenner of Springtield, 111.,
wns ns follows:
Missouri lleports in M issouri vary
from 5 to S3 per cent. The crop in the
Oznrks is practically nothing, while
in northern .Missouri some orchards are
good. For the whole state a fair esti
mate would bo 20 per cent
Illinois Poor crop all over the state.
A fair estimate is 10 per cent of a
normal crop.
New York Reports vary from 50 to
SO per cent of a full crop. The fruit is
reported to be good and the estimate
should be about 75 per cent.
Ohio, 25 per cent; Kansas, 25 per
cent; Pennsylvania, 45 per cent; Michi
gan, 50 per cent; Indiana, HO per cent;
Kentucky, 20 per cent; Virginia, ISO
per cent; Arkansas, 10 per cent; Iowa,
IU per cent; West Virginia, 30 per
cent ; Maine, 50 per cent; Nebraska,
20 per cent; Oklahoma, 20 per cent;
Colorado. 25 p -r cent; Massachusetts,
50 per cent; Maryland, 50 per cent;
New Jersey, 50 per cent; Vermont, 50
per cent ; Connecticut, 50 per cent;
Idaho, JOt) per cent; Minnesota, 00 per
cent; Utah, 80 per cent; Delaware, 70
per cent; Montana, 100 per cent; New
Mexico, 300 per cent; California, Ore
gon and Washington, good crops, 75
per cent to full crop.

James 11. Vahey, the lawyer who de?
fended CharleB Tucker iu the noted Ma
bel Pago murder easo, appears to bo
the most likely candidate for governr
or of Massachusetts on the democratic
tickett his fall.
Tho speech to be delivered by Mr.

ticipated to be one of tho most impor
tant he will deliver during tho cam
paign. Te will speak under the auspices
of the Injunction Rofonn league, nnd
his subject will bo the anti-injunction
plank of the democratic platform.

i Tho growth of the socialist vote ia
Idaho, Utah and Colorado is said to
be a subject of deep concern to both
the old parties. Tho socialist voto in
UtOO in Colorado was 2000, and only
a few hundred in the other states. 3d
1904 the socialists polled 4038 votes
for Debs, and in the state election in
1906 cast 1(1,000 votes for their candi
date for governor. Tho vote iu Idaho
and Utah has increased to 5000 or tiOOO.
The generally accepted explanation of
thiB is that the greater part of tho mem.
bership of tho Western Federation of
Miners are socialists and vote the so
cialist ticket.
