FRUIT DISPLAY SURPRISES
White. Salmon Fair Brings Out Re
markable Exhibits.
WHITE SALMON, Wash., Oct 15.
(Special.) The second biennial fair of
the White Salmon Valley is now being
held here. The large skating rink In
which the fair is held proved inade
quate for the large and varied display.
In the apple section the Spitzenbergs
and Yellow Newtons are prominent
features. Many other varieties were
also In evidence.
This section was a continual surprise,
not only to the stranger, but to the
residents as well. An experienced
applegrower from the outside declared
that It was one of the best exhibits
he had yet seen.
Among the other fruits were peaches,
pears, quinces and grapes. There was
also a large variety of vegetables as
fine as any raised on Irrigated land.
The poultry exhibit was an Interesting
feature. In the women's department
there was a beautiful display of needle
work and oil and china painting. Two
hundred and fifty dollars were dis
tributed among the successful exhib
itors. Notwithstanding the heavy rain the
fair was attended by a large number of
people from the valley and from out
side towns. It was an evidence of the
substantial growth of this valley in
the last two years.
TWO PRISONERS ESCAPE
Make Getaway While Taken to Jail
by South Bend Officers.
SOUTH BEND, Wash., Oct. 15. (Spe
cial.) During the last two days two men
have escaped from custody In this city
and are now supposed to be In hiding In
the woods back of town. The first was
F. S. Erb, a recent arrival who bad been
for a short time in the employ of Con
tractor L. B. Larson. He had passed a
number of worthless checks and was
caught on the steamer Reliable about to
cross the bay for Nahcotta. He was
brought ashore but before an officer could
be called, he gave his captors the slip
and took to the hills. It is possible to go
from here to the mouth of the Columbia
by trail and he has probably taken that
route.
The other prisoner was a young man
named White, who. was arrested at Ray
mond on a charge of contributing to the
delinquency of a young girl of feeble
mind. While being taken to the jail at
this place he made an excuse to enter a
through the bark door and he. also, took
to the woods. All efforts to recapture the
men have thus far proved futile.
Rain Regarded as Godsend.
MOXTBSAXO. Wash., Oct. 15. Spe
cial.) The steady rain that has been fall
ing for the last few days has been a god
send to this vicinity. The water in the
dam and reservoir of the Montesano Light
A Water Company was lower than it
had been for years. The electric lights
of the town would have been shut off In
a short time if it had not rained, and the
city would have been in bad shape in
case of fire.
Heavy Rain at Albany.
ALBANY, Or.. Oct. 13. (Special.)
In the past three days here have been
2.S0 Inches of rainfall at Albany, and

BALLOT PLAN OPSET
No Place for Names of Non
partisan Judiciary.
COURT'S RULING CONFUSES
Xames Can't Go in Party Columns
anil So Provision Is Made tot
Them Elsewhere County Au
ditors Very Much Puzxied.
OLYMPIA, Wash., Oct 15. (Special.)
A decision by the Attorney-General as
to printing names of nonpartisan judl
ciary candidates on the official ballots
has apparently been shattered by the
recent decision of the State Supreme
Court on the direct primary law. and In
consequence Auditors all over the state
are "up In the air" regarding printing
the ballots.
The direct primary law was silent as
to where on the ballot the nonpartisan
Judiciary nominations should be printed
When the question was submitted to the
Attorney-General's office for opinion. I.
B. Knickerbocker, Assistant Attorney-
General, wrote a long opinion.
In this opinion the writer proceeded
under the theory that Socialists, Pro
hibitionists and other minority parties
had the right to nominate candidates for
Judges and that the names of these can
didates would appear on the ballot un
der the party designation.
Original Plan Upset.
Had this been the case. Mr. Knicker
bocker pointed out, a voter could mark
an X at the head of the ticket of one
of these minority parties and his vote
would count as a vote for the minority
party candidate for judge. That this
ruling would give Republicans and Jjem
ocrats a fair deal, Mr. Knickerbocker
held the "nonpartisan judiciary" nomi
nations (which were participated in only
by Democrats "and Republicans) should
be printed twice on the ballot, once at
the foot of the Republican column and
once at the same position on the Demo
cratic column, and that an X at the head
of either party ticket would be counted
a vote for the nonpartisan judges. To
Justify this holding Knickerbocker
ruled that the primary law had repealed
the old statute which prohibited the
name of any candidate appearing more
than once on the ballot.
Problem Up to Auditors.
In the direct primary opinion the Su
preme Court has held that Socialists.
Prohibitionists and others cannot have
their Judicial nominations printed on the
official ballot and naturally this destreys
the basis for the Assistant Attorney
General's opinion.
If the Auditors follow the ruling and
print the nonpartisan names twice, the
question Is raised that an X at the top
of the ticket cannot be counted for the
Judges, because they are not "party"
candidates'. There will also probably
be a protest if the names are printed
under but one party column and again
ih.m i. nn mithnritv for giving a sep
arate column on the ballot for the Judge
nnminttnnL The whole matter Is
decidedly confusing to the Auditors, who
have charge of printing me Dauots, ra
may result in several different plans be
ing adopted in different parts of the
state.

MEN WITH MONEY NEEDED
Xo Room for Immigrants Without
Means, Says Labor Commissioner.
SALEM. Or., Oct. 15. (Special.)
That common laborers without capital
are not wanted as immigrants to Ore
gon is the answer Labor Commissioner
O. P. Hoff haa given to an Austrian
immigration official who recently
wrote the Commissioner offering to
send 10.000 immigrants a year to this
state. Mr. Hoff's letter, after answer
ing other inquiries, gives the following
view of Oregon's needs:
In regard to sending1 a large number of
Immigrants to this state, I will say that
Oregon has a large amount of land that is
till open for settlemnt, but such as would
take advantage of this land would neces
sarily depend upon outside work, or means,
for maintenance for a while. Work of any
nature is not as plentiful as It was a year
ago. In fact, I believe that In every occu
pation there are plenty to do the work.
What Oregon needs U men with capital to
develop the many great resources, which
would then necessitate more labor and thus
give better opportunities for Immigrants.
But to receive immigrants, unless they have
means sufficient to tide them over until
they can make the land.- that Is still to be
had for homesteads, productive, would, la
my opinion, be a great mistake.

ROB STORE FOR THIRD TIME
Burglars Effect Entrance Into Ware
house From River Side.
ASTORIA. Or., Oct 15. (Special.) For
the third time in two years the hardware
store ot Foard & Stokes was robbed on
Wednesday night. An. entrance was ef
fected through a rear door of the store
after the warehouse had been reached
from the river, the robbers evidently hav
ing come in a boat. Fifty-three holes were
bored in the door with a brace and bit to
cut a hole large enough to admit a medium-sized
man, this work probably tak
ing fully an hour. Then four rifles and
six revolvers were taken as well as some
ammunition, and the escape was made in
the same way through the rear.
It was undoubtedly the work of two
men on account of the weight of the arti
cles taken, whose value was about J300.
The police have several clews and they
believe that the thieves are the same that
have committed several robberies of a
similar character in the city during a long
period.
