In the same box came a cucumber that weighs six pounds, which is one of the largest grown In that section this year. Baker City is also the source of a half dozen specimens of Hubbard squash that weigh from W to 66 pounds each.

Meeting. NORTHWEST OFFERS AID Convention to Be Held In 10 U, bat Rivalry Starts) Early Oregon Metropolis Will Also Have to Win Over East. A contest has developed between the Chamber of Commerce of Los Angeles and Portland for th. Honor of entertaining the international meeting of the Young Men's Christian Association In 1913. with the civic organizations of California sup porting the Southern city and those of the Pacific Northwest m line for Portland. Exchanges of letters and telegrams have been frequent in the past few days, but the sitaution was greatly enlivened yesterday when C. W. Burks, secretary of the associated chambers of the Coast, with headquarters at San Francisco, tele graphed to the local chamber asking for its support of Los Angeles. After a hurried consultation over the telephone with leaders of the T. M. C A. who gave the assurance that they were in the race to stay, a reply was sent to Mr. Burks stating that inasmuch as Portland was In the field to stay. Los Angeles would have to look to other sources for its votes. . This practically breaks the strength of the associated Coast chambers In this particular movement as It requires a un animous vote to give official encourage ment to any one issue. From now until the convention city is finally selected both Portland and Los Angeles will fight Independently of each other for the hon ors. Fight Started Early? The local committee is practically as sured that It will have the solid support of the Northwestern commercial bodies and - T. M. C. A. leaders in Its efforts to land the convention. A telegram was received yesterday from the Spokane Chamber of Commerce offering its aa slstance to Portland in the contest. The local T. M. C. A. has received word from Seattle that the officials of the organiza tions at that place will vote for Portland. Vancouver has sent unofficial endorse ment of this city's ambition and similar encouragement Is expected from Tacoma. Eugene and other cities In the Northwest having local branches of the organization. While ths convention is nearly three years In the future, the time when the city in which it will be held Is to be selected Is no more than two weeks away. The towns that will entertain the delegates In 1911 and 1913 were in the race more than two years and Portland's advent for the 1913 honors is oonsidered none too early. The triennial convention Is to meet In Toronto, Canada, the last of the present month. With the Chamber of Commerce and the T. M. C. A. are every church and civic organization in the city. By the time the convention Is held the proposed new auditorium win be ready and It is expected that the meetngs will be held in that building. The International meeting attracts delegates from all parts of the world and does more than any similar gathering to advertise a city outside of the coun try. Its desirability is attested by the fact that so many places 'are bidding for It- In addition to Portland and Los An geles, several Eastern cities are in the race. Contest Will Be Spirited. Local officials of the T. M. C A. be lieve that they were first in the field and feel that this advantage will work In their favor among the delegates whose votes will decide which place will get the convention. They do not resent the position taken by Los Angeles and look forward to a friendly but spirited contest. It is not likely that a compro mise will be affected ae the city that loses in this contest will have to wait a long time before another opportunity of entertaining such a gathering Is pre sented. If either of the Coast cities is awarded the prize for 1913 the T. M. C. A. will not hold any of its future meet ings on the Coast for several years to come. Secretary Giltner, of the Chamber of Commerce, is making every effort to en list support for Portland. Not 6nly does he expect to have the solid backing of the Northwest cities, but be also hopes to secure some encouragement from Eastern bodies. PORTLAND T0SEND ENVOY Chamber of Commerce to Be Repre sented at National Apple Show. When, at 10 o'clock the morning of Monday, November 14, President Taft will press the button to start the Na tional Apple Show at Spokane, Portland will be represented by a member of the Chamber of Commerce delegated to at tend the special "Live Wire Convention" to be held In connection with the event. This feature Is to be an Innovation at the apple show and was suggested only a few days ago. In a communication re ceived from Ren H. Rice, the secretary of the local Chamber yesterday was au thorized to name at least one delegate. The subject will be taken up at the next meeting. The purpose, it Is understood here. Is not so much to advance the applegrowing Industry as it Is to encourage other lines of activity throughout the Northwestern, country. The plan to send the winners at - the Spokane show to the Chicago show has increased the interest among applegrowers, it is reported.
