MOSIER EXHIBIT COMING
Spokane Xational Apple Show Will
Also Secure Large Part of Hood
River Apple Exhibit Photog
raphers Busy Last Day.
HOOD RIVER. Or., Oct. 18. (Spe
cial.) The wind-up of the' big Hood
River fruit fair took place today and
exhibitors or those who bought the fruit
are busy packing it up for" shipment.
The large Mosler display, which was tha
only place outside of Hood River to
take any prizes, was bought by Dresser
and Sealy & Mason and will be placed
on exhibition by them In their show
windows in Portland. They also have
bought several other exhibits and will
display them. The rest of the fruit has
been bought by various buyers, who
made a scramble for It as soon as the
awards were made.
Some of the features brought out in
the aftermath of the fair were the wlir
nlng of a prize cup by a box of Jona
thans grown on three-year-old trees
owned by Davidson Bros., the winning
of four cups each by J. L. Carter and
M. M. Hill, the former taking six
prizes altogether, and an exhibition of
apples from the orchard of B. R.
Tucker, taken from 12-year-old trees
that last year averaged him 31000 an
acre profit.
A placard on a small exhibit grown
by A. I. Mason, who has always been a
star exhibitor, reads:
The balance of this exhibit may be seen
at Liberty Home orchard, where 35 white
employes are now picking, wiping and pack
ing 6000 boxes of Spitzenberg and Newtown
apples, to be shipped to New York for
export trade. Strangers are welcome visi
tors. Yours respectfully.
A. I. MASON.
Carson, a fertile little valley in Ska
mania County, sent an exhibit which
attracted favorable comment. Included
In the lists of entries were fruits, vege
tables, grains and grasses, all indica
tive of the resources of this new sec
tion of Washington now being developed
by the completion of the North Bank
road. Roswell Shelley was In charge of
the display from Carson.
A large part of the Hood River ex
hibit will be shipped to Spokane for
display of the National Apple Show In
that city December 7 to 12. H. J. Neely,
a representative- of the National Apple
Show, was In attendance at the Hood
River fair and distributed hundreds of
National Apple Show buttons and boost
ed, for Spokane's big fair. Mr. Neely
met with a number of the Hood River
exhibitors and arranged that the fruit
now on display here should be placed
in cold storage and shipped In December
'to Spokane. ""
White Salmon growers have agreed to
send several hundred boxes to the Spo
kane show, and with nearly 1000 boxes
from Hood River, this part of the apple
growing section of the Pacific North
west will be well represented at the
National Apple Show.
Photographers were busy today get
ting pictures of the displays and to
morrow will see the last of the magnif
icent exhibit on Its way to many places
'to tell the story of the Oregon apple.
WOMEN ENTER PLEA
With Ballot They Could Help
Suffering Toilers.
IN SESSION AT BUFFALO
Xational Suffrage Association Con
venes in 40th Annual Conven
tion Addresses Made by
Prominent Women.
BUFFALO, N. T., Oct. 18. What woman
with the ballot In her hand could do
toward alleviating the hardships and suf
fering In the industrial world, due to in
justice and inequality, was told to an
Industrial mass-meeting at the Star Thea
ter today by delegates to the fortieth an
nual convention of the National Ameri
can Women Suffrage Association.
President Anna Shaw said that every
human being should be given the oppor
tunity to toil; that God's greatest gilt to
the human race was when He sent man
forth into the world to earn his bread by
the sweat of his brow.
Miss Jean M. Gordon, factory inspector
for the Parish of Orleans, New Orleans,
was introduced by President Shaw as an
industrious young woman whom the politi
cal ring of New Orleans sought to have

removed, but still retains her office, doing
splendid work for the poor.
Miss Gordon's appeal was to the privi
leged young women of America for a
democratic spirit of "noblesse oblige" to
replace the self-indulgence of now almost
useless lives, and. the attitude of "Lady
Bountiful" charity with which so many,
as she put it, are now apparently satis
fied. "Picture to yourself what It would
mean to this country." she said, "if thous
ands of young women who now spend day
after day with no definite object to work
toward, would awaken to the debt they
owe to 'Helpers of Mankind' who have
gone before, leaving the world so much
better for their having been here, and de
cide that from out of the fulness which
has descended upon them, they would give
back to the world an equal value in pub
lie service"
Harriet Stanton Blatch, of New York,
made an eloquent plea for more atten
tion to the Industrial training of young
girls who are going out into the world
to work. She took exception to the ex
pression "lower class," and said that
some of ' the grandest characters she
knew had the workshop for their alma
mater and the trade unions for a post
graduate course.
The report of the committee on In
dustrial problems affecting women and
children was given by Florence Kelley,
of New York. She said In part:
"Votes for working-women mean
shorter hours. Eight hours for men,
10 hours for children, unlimited hours
for women such is our practice today
In an increasing number of states. Re
ducing hours for all workers would do
more to reduce the tuberculosis than
all fhe crusades against It that are go
ing on In the world today.
"Working-women have the working
day of eight hours only in the four
states in which they vote Colorado,
Idaho, Utah and Wyoming. Eight
hours for men. 10 for children, unlim-
ited hours for women will continue in
practice until working-women them
selves help to elect the Judges who now
annul the statutes enacted to protect
women and children."
MATTER LEFT TO M'COURT
Will Be Given Assistance in Smith
Suit If He Asks for It.
ORBGONIAN NEWS BUREAU, Wash
ington, Oct. 18. Secretary Garfleld and
Assistant Attorney-General Woodruff, of
the Interior Department, in line with tlio
urgent request of S. A. D. Puter, during
hla recent visit to Washington, have had
a conference with Attorney-General
Bonaparte with regard to procurement of
special counsel to handle the C. A.
Smith land case when it gets into court
on the Government's suit to recover title
to about 100 quarter sections of valuable
timber land in Linn and Lane counties
in Oregon.
Attorney-General Bonaparte told Interior
Department officials that he believed
District Attorney McCourt would be able
to handle this case, for his conduct of
office since assuming control, had been
eminently satisfactory to the Department
of Justice, and McCourt is regarded as
fully competent to conduct a suit of this
importance, involving from Jl. 000.000 to
$2,000,000 worth of land. However, the
Attorney-General said he recognized the
importance of making the very strongest
showing in fills suit, and he promised
Immediately to ascertain definitely
whether McCourt can handle this case
himself or whether he desires assistance.
I special counsel is required arrange
ments will be made later.
