BISHOP INTIMATES
SHIFT IS LIKELY
Rev. Mr. Cooke Opens Oregon
Methodist Conference Now
On at Roseburg.
FIRST DAY IS HARMONIUS
Trelate Asserts Change of Lead
ers Is ' Important and' Says
Present Session Probably .
Will Be Mis Last.
.ROSEBURG, Or.. Sept. 22. (Special.)
"This will probably be the last time
1 will 7reside at the Oregon Confer
ence." was the assertion of Bishop Ii. J.
Cooke, presiding' at the opening ses
sion of the annual of the Methodist
Kpiscopal Church, which began here
this morning:. The bishop said he be
lieved a. change was altogether impor
tant. "A strons and vigorous character
builds about himself a strong organ
ization," he said. "Likewise a weak
man will find a weaker one. The lat
ter will be dominated by the stronger
ones, who will soon surround him. The
former man is bound to be at outs with
the many weaker ones, so that. In any
case it is necessary to make a change.
This is in order to avoid the dangers
that will arise from the position of
either unfortunate man."
That Bishop Cooke anticipated some
disturbing Influence among the mem
bers of the conference, was seen in the
words, "If I ever have prayed. It was
before coming to preside at this meet
ing of the Oregon conference."
The bishop announced that he would
fpeak during the conference on the
"Atonement," the "Incarnation" and
God's Idea of a Holy Man.'"
Opening; la Imptrmlrr.
Bishop Cooke's opening of the initial
service of the conference was impres
sive and according to the delegates
present it had' the effect of dispelling
all fear of clashes between the two fac
tions of the conference. Harmony, the
delegates say, bids fair to prevail dur
li'K the remaining sessions of the con
ference.
Followingthe opening ceremony,
memorial service was held in honor of
the deceased "members of the confer
ence. Obituaries of H. D. Kimball, N.
J. Harbit, W. T. Tierce. W. B. Pepper
and John Flinn were read.
The bishop delivered a beautiful
ulogy on the character bf Rev. John
Flinn.
As to the injection of the Taylor
street Methodist Churhc controversy, of
Portland, into the elections or anything
else of a nature epposing the bishop,
none appeared today. Although inti
mated by some of the delegates that
the insurgent wing of the conference
may attempt to put through a resolu
tion asking for the removal of the
bishop, these matters are still below
the surface and seem unlikely to ap
pear before the last of the week.
Bishop' Candidate Klected.
Substantiation of the belief of the
majority of delegates that harmony
will mark the conference sessions was
evidenced in the re-election of C. C.
Rarick, secretary of the conference.
He was nominated - by Rev. James
Moore, Rev. Mr. Rarick, although con
sidered opposed in views to Bishop
Cooke, and of the insurgent faction,
was named by a staunch supporter of
the present administration.
Other officers elected were: C. O.
McCulloch; treasurer, and Leslie Fields,
statistical secretary. The committee
named at the conclusion of last year's
conference were confirmed, with the ex
ception of one or two substitutions.
The reports of the district superintend
ents were handed to the conference to
day and adopted.
These showed a marked increase In
nearly all departments of the church
work and caused Bishop Cooke "to re
mark that hard times could not be
discovered In the' condition of this con
ference. At the statistical session the
ministers handed in their reports,
showing the condition of their indi
vidual churches.
Most of the delegates deny that fac
tional differences will arise, unless they
do eo on Friday, when delegates are
elected to the general conference, to
be held at Saratoga next May.

APPLE EXHIBITS WANTED
Lectures Arranged for Portland at
Heqnest of Engineers.
OREGON AGRICULTURAL COLLEGE
Corvallis. Sept. 22. (Special.) Unless
Oregon applemen come to the front
with another collection of superior
fruit of the crop of 1915 the state
stands in serious danger of losing
much of her prestige that came to it
as the banner fruit state through Its
5 914 exhibits at the Panama-Pacific
Exposition. The unusual success of th-j
Oregon exhibits has aroused growers
of other states. '
It has been learned that a single
Middle West state Is preparing an en
tire carload of horticultural products,
with which it hopes to break Oregon's
creamery. The stock in the creamery
is owned by the dairymen and farmers
in the surrounding country. The com
pany was organized last June with a
capital of $5000. ,
The company built a brick buildinz
and equipped It with the most modern
buttermaking and refrigerating ma
chinery. When the organization was
effected, the Carlton Board of Trade
promised a celebration upon the open
ing day, and this was carried out today
with a programme commencing at 10
o'clock, at which time a business meet
ing. of the stockholders was held in the
Workmen's Hall.
At noon the stockholders and their
wives and a host of farmers sat down
to a luncheon in the auditorium of the
City Hall. One hundred sixty-two plates
were laid and, had there been room.
the attendance would have been at
least forty more, these latter being
members of the Board of Trade who
gave way to their rural guests.
W. B. Dennis was toastmaster and
was in charge of the programme. Re
sponses were made by Ed Gary, presi
dent of the Creamery Company; John
Peterson, vice-president; W. W. Nickel,
secretary-manager; J. D. Mickel, State
Dairy and Food Commissioner: Profes
sor Flett, of the Extension Department
of the Oregon Agricultural College; G.
S. Crego, of the publicity department of
the Portland Chamber of Commerce;
County Commissioner Allen, and others.
FAIR FULL OF THRILLS
PHILOMATH PUTS OX WILD WEST
SHOW WITH SUCCESS.
Aside From Regular Riding and Roplns;
Contests Corvallla Firemen
Give Exhibition.
PHILOMATH, Or., Sept. 22. (Special.)
The programme of the Philomath
Roundup, which opened yesterday, was
full of thrills. There was a parade at
10 o'clock, in which cowboys and cow
girls participated. The Corvallis Band
led the procession. Blooded stock was
exhibited, ana the teams which were
to participate in the pulling contests
were put in line.
The Corvallis firemen performed
stunts Tuesday consisting of life-saving
demonstrations and water fights In the
street.
.ine features at the grounds were of
the true Western type. There were
some narrow escapes from serious in
Jury. "Shorty." riding in the pony ex
press relay, was thrown over the fence.
Sam Wyatt's horse fell in a collision
and dragged him a considerable dis
tance. Young Price made a record in the
relay race, In which he changed three
times and made the three-quarters of
a mile in two minutes and two seconds.
McClellan, a local stockman, carried
off the roping and throwing honors,
tying his steer in one minute and three
seconds.
The thrill of the day was when
"Broncho Bob" bulldogged a steer from
an automobile. This feat caused a real
sensation, and is considered new in
roundup circles. The horses ridden were
of the "grave-digging" variety, and the
"busters" were equal to the Job.
SH'IP SHORTAGE INJURIOUS
J. T. Dougall Tells Add Club
niand for Timber Is otJod.
Dc
"I could ship 2,000.000 ties from Port
land to Philadelphia today for the
Pennsylvania railroad, if I could get
a boat to float them in, but I can't do
it. That is what's the matter with
business in the Northwest today,"- said
J. T. Dougallll yesterday at the Ad
Club, touching on the business depres
sion that has prevailed in the past few
months.
"There are plenty of orders for us
to fill and -we- have the stuff to fin
them, but we haven't ships and can't
get them, and consequently we can't
deliver the goods."
The greater part of the meeting yes
terday was devoted to a debate as to
whether the Ad Club should continue
its work on the present broad lines or
should restrict Itself to a purely ad
vertising men's club.
A report of a committee of delegates
who had attended the National oCn
vention favored the latter, but after
the debate their report was rejected
by the club. Speakers were M. N'. Dana,
M. Mosessohn, R. D. Carpenter, C. A.
Whitemore, George L. Baker. F. H

Dougall. C. F. Berg predidel.
week preliminary to the beginning of
Oregon's 54th annual state fair, which
will open next Monday and continue
until the night of October 2.
The exhibits in a majority of cases
are larger and more varied, the grounds
are in trim and beautiful condition,
and not even rain can mar materially
the pleasure of visitors, for this year
the main roads in the grounds are
paved, doing away with the mud
menace of the past.
Aside from the many beautiful ex
hibits the grounds will appeal to all
for the floral display which has been
arranged by Professor Peck, of the
Oregon Agricultural College. Hundreds
of varieties of flowers are In full
bloom.
Hundreds Camp on Grounds. v
Although the fair does not open until
Monday, hundreds of campers are on
the grounds, their tents stretching in
long avenues from the entrance to
where the grove skirts the Southern
Pacific railroad track. Many campers
have been here for more than a month.
In the livestock section of the
srounas, tnere are 503 blooded cattle
wnicn are listed to compete for prizes,
and also 417 swine, 265 sheep and 243
horses.
w. a. jones, secretary of the fair
board, said today that he expected
many more entries in the livestock
division Detore the opening day. Be
oiues me siock to be shown by Ore-
sun owners. two herds have been
entered by Eastern exhibitors.-
There will be no lack of dining ac
commodations for fair visitrs this year,
for in addition to six large restaurants
scattered about the grounds six more
are erected along Concession Way.
Water Supply 1 Now Ample.
For the first time the Oregon State
Fair will be amply supplied with good
water this year. The old system where
by the water was furnished from the
penitentiary was far from satisfac
tory, the supply being often insuffi
cient. Now the water for the grounds is
supplied from wells with a capacity of
90,000 gallons every 24 hours. The
reservoirs have a storage capacity of
7500 gallons.
For the use of members of the State
Grange, a large tent has been provided
while nearby are two other big tents
which will be headquarters for the 4(1
boys and 40 girls who have won free
trips and entertainment at the fair
for their industrial club work In the
different counties.
Parking Space Is Arranged.

automobiles and other kinds of vehicles
