H. VAX WINKLE TO SEEK OI F1CE AT ELECTION'. Kewly Appointed Attorney-General Would Continue in Present Position. SALEM, Or., Oct. 6. (Special.) I. H. Van Winkle, whose appointment as attorney-general to succeed George 2U. Brown was announced recently by Governor Olcott, today formally de clared his intention of becoming a candidate for the office at the general election to he held November 2. Mr. Van Winkle has served as first assistant attorney-general during the rntire incumbency of Mr. Brown, and held the same position under Attorney-General A. M. Crawford, from February, 1904, until July 1, 1913. On the .latter date he resigned the posi tion to engage in the private practice of law, but returned to' the attorney peneral's office upon the election of Jitr. Brown. It was said that it was because of Mr. Van Winkle's experi ence and ability and his well-known j-tand for law enforcement that caused Attorney-General Brown to seek his aid when the latter was first elected. In appointing Mr. Van Winkle to nui'ceed Mr. Brown Governor Olcott followed his. usual rule of selecting an experienced official. Mr. Van Winkle is a native of Ore gron, having been born and reared on a farm in Linn county. He is also dean of the college of law of Willamette university and has always been a re publican. Because of the fact that none of the candidates for attorney-general can have their names on the ballot, selec tion of Mr. Brown's successor will be made through the "write-in" method.

APPLE HARVEST DELAYED Persistent Rains Hamper Picking in Hood River Orchards. HOOD RIVER, Or., Oct. 6. (Spe cial.) Apple harvest has been in augurated here this year under far from normal conditions. Picking to date has been accomplished between showers. Pioneer orchardists say they never have seen a season characterizd by such persistent rain storms as pre vailed throughout September and uhhered in October, the month during which 90 per cent of the apples here are' picked. The rains have not only hampered glowers in their picking, but have militated against them in procuring harvest help. Normal fall weather here is ideal for camping, and many families make of apple harvest a kind of self-supporting vacation. The rain storms, however, growers say, have driven many harvest hand's away.
