'BOOSTER' RIVALRY KEEH
BUYERS ESTER AD CLUB COSTEST
THIS KOOS WITH ZEST.
Yesterday was Only the second day
of Buyers' week, but the registration
of out-of-town buyers was past the
600 mark early In the afternoon, and
when the last bulletin was Issued last
night was near the total of the at
tendance for the entire week a year
ago.
Last year the registration, for the
whole week was 699. Last night the
total registration was more than 660.
Visiting buyers are expected to con
tinue to come in in almost as large
numbers today as they have on the two
preceding days, and it is evidont that
all previous records of attendance will
be broken. Thus far the registration
each day has been nearly double that
of the corresponding day a year before.
Excursion Brlnirs Results,
The visiting buyers are putting In
their days in a very business-like man
ner, and reports of big- sales are al
readv bein&r made. One furniture or.
der placid yesterday was more than
94000, and business in all other lines
was making encouraging reports.
The fruits of the recent business
men's excursion In the North Yakima
country are showing in the registra
tion of merchants from the cities that
were visited by the Portland crowd at
that time. Those registered yesterday
from the Yakima Valley were: R. Sor
enson, Toppenish, and R. P. Haney,
T. V. Parke and J. J. Foreman, Sunny
aide. The visitors indicate that there
will be still more coming from that
locality.
Alarshfleia has sent A. T. Haines,
K. E. Sweeny, C. E. Sweeny and Oscar
Gulovaon, and there are several others
from the Coos - Bay country who are
'whooping 'er up" for a big attendance
from Portland at the railway jubilee
August 24-29.
Montana and California have sent
representatives, and there is announce
ment that others are coming today and
tomorrow from those states.
Buyer Crosses McKenile Pass.
J. R. Roberts, of Redmond, motored
In yesterday in the first big touring
car that has driven over the McKenzie
Pass this season. He was stalled in
four feet of snow on the summit Mon
day afternoon.
G. Clifford Barlow, president of the
Oregon Retail Merchants' Association,
came up from Warrenton yesterday.
The friendly attitude that the State
Retailers' Association has taken toward
Buyers week is believed to have had
much to do with swelling the attend
ance this year.
"The second day convinces us that
the Buyers' week is destined to make
a biggrer success this year than in any
other year since it was instituted,
said M. E. Smead, who is' in general
charge of the reception and registra

BREAD 1Y ADVANCE
Baker Says if Wheat Stays Up
Rise Is Imminent.
H. II. Haynes Declares Portlanders
Get aiore for Their Money Now
Than Do Other Pluces Scien
tific Methods Adopted.
Higher -prices for bread to Portland
consumers are forecast. If the present
quotations on wheat are maintained. As
yet. however, no rise in prices is an
nounced. Upon the return to Portland
of many bakers now in. attendance at
the bakers' convention in salt LaK
City it is expected the question of a
change in. loaf sizes will be discussed.
What action will be taken is as yet a
problem, although bakers assert that
unless wheat prices drop higher prices
for bread are a foregone conclusion.
H. H. Haynes. president of the Oregon
State Master Bakers' Association, said
yesterday the matter of an increased
price for bread is a question that will
depend upon individual action by the
bakers and that it is not an association
concern.
As far as the size and prices of
bread loaves are concerned." he' said
competition alone will regulate that. j
"The rise In the price of wheat here
during the past two weeks came as a
complete surprise to Oregon bakers.
The trade had -not anticipated such a
thing. It is perfectly plain that If the
present prices of wheat are maintained
bakers will be compelled to make a
change in the size of the loaf and this
probably will be a large 10-cent loaf In
stead of the present-sized 5-cent loaf.
"This will not be a rise in the price
of the present 5-cent loaf to 10 rents
by any means, but wilt be an entirely
new loaf, and it will be full value fo
the consumer's money. When the bak
ers get back from the Salt Lake City
convention, now in progress. It is likely
there will be a discussion looking to
ward pushing the 10-cent loaf. Many
bakers are making a 10-cent loaf and
f is really a better and more desirable
food product than the E-cent loaf. The
flavor and texture are better, the
loaves do not dry out so quickly and
are really better In every way.
"Another thing should be borne In
mind. Portland bakers are flving the
people of this city fuller value for their
money than the bakers of probably any
other city in the country. Visiting
bakers who come here are agreed upon
this point. The larger plants which do
things in a scientific way are more
modern and give a better and bigger
loaf than do the bakers of other
cities."
his resignation, which will be acted
upon at the next meeting of the olub
trustees. Mr. Teachnor is a candidate
for State Senator from Lewis County
and says he cannot campaign and at
tend to the duties of the Chamber at
the same time. It is not known who
his successor will be.
INTEREST IN FAIR .GROWS
Plans Mature for Annual County
. Exhibit at Gresham.' v
"The tenth annual exhibit of the
Multnomah County Fair will be the hest
ever held." said H. A. Lewis, president
and general manager, yesterday. "All
we need ia good weather to make It
a great success."
The directors held a meeting yester
day and-accepted plans of the enter
tainment committee providing for the
presence of an amusement company
during fair week. Mr. Lewis reported
entries in the stock and agricultural
departments coming In rapidly. Some
of the best horses in the Northwest
were reported training for the races.
It was decided to improve the pavilion
and the matter was referred to the
building oommittee. The fair will be
held September 12-1 at Gresham.

Bllsa Insurance fo.- f25.
T. Dodge, pseudo worker of psychic
wonders, is still out on a $100 bond.
After a heated argument, yesterday
afternoon engaged In between Deputy
District Attorney Delch and Boscoe
Nelson, Dodge's attorney, into which
personalities entered freely. Judge
Langguth decided that the technicali
ties of the case demanded close scru
tiny, and so deferred decision for sev
eral days.
In the event that Dodge Is not con
victed on the charge that has been
launched against him. that of. sdver
tiin? br card, which was argued yes
terday was In direct violation of the
fortune-telllnc ordinance, the Woman's
Protective Bureau has other charges to
prefer. However, these other charges
will not be preferred unless satisfac
tion cannot be gained otherwise.
Mrs. Elizabeth Moorad. an employe
of the Woman's Protective Bureau, vis
ited Dodge Saturday to get evidence
against him. Repeated complaints have
been received at the police headquar
ters about him. She admitted that
Dodge was familiar though not offen
sive She testified that Dodge told
her she, should become a medium and
should come to him several times a
week to be thoroughly spiritualized. He
said tt would involve the expenditure
of $80. She said she could not procure
that much money. He suggested that
she might have money In the bank.
According to Mrs. Moorad. Dodge also
told her that he could apply the ninth
seal of Venus for insurance of marital
bliss. This, he said, would cost $25.
Renewitz was overpowered and paid a
fine of $50 for assaulting Grout and
