That tl,- anli-K!cir faction of the

t.i" National Convention at St. Lou if
aiipcnr.s cvkirnl by the artion taken
in Ada and Canyon counties by party
These arc the two large counties of
the .state. ach entitled to SO ielegates.
In hoth the anti-Hlder Uemocrat.s have
rai'-d their voices in protest to the al
lowed steamroller tactics of the Pence-XniPtit-KIiler
faction, have refused to
abide 1y their actions after gaining
control of the county committees and
have issued notices for party primaries
to elect contesting delegations to the
I'ocatello convention.
"barges of "machine" manipulation
are being hurled at John K. Nugent,
Joseph T. Pence and Robert II. Klder.
Ada Meetinxr Important.
The meeting of the Ada County Cen
tral Committee here this neck will
have a bearing upon the future action
of the party. It was important, for
there were gathered a grreat many of
the Democratic leaders, such men as
fx-r;overnor Hawley, ex-Attorney-General
Martin, " ex-United States Senator
Perky, Slate Chairman Pence, ex-State
Chairman Nugent and others. Ar
rayed against the two latter were the
stellar lights of the party, but Nugent
and Pence were in control, and while
they let the opposition talk all they
wanted they never lost their heads.
"When it came time for action their
county chairman. A. C. Ilindman,
started the machine and it ground out
T.O delegates to the state convention, in
structed for Robert IL Elder for Na
tional committeeman and bound solidly
under the unit rule.
In Canyon County, the Ppnco-Nugent-Kider
faction gained control of the
county'committee meeting, shutting out
proxies. When barred from using
proxies, the holders bolted, and a sep
arate committee meeting was held, re
sulting in a call being issued for a
county primary to elect delegates to
the Pocatello convention.
Idaho County Rebels.
Idaho County has broken away from
the I'ence-Nugent-Klder wins? of the
party. E'elegates favorable to Jerome
J. Pay. of Moscow, for National eom
mtteeman, were elected, and resolu
tions were adopted, condemning Pence.
Nuifnt and Klder. This county elected
A. W. Talkinaton state committeeman,
but when he presented his credentials
to the state committee at its meeting
here, the Pence-Nugent-Klder faction
was in control and refused to recocnize
him. In retaliation the Idaho county
committee elected an anti-Klder dele
gation to the state convention.
It teems quite apparent now that
neither faction will be in complete con
trol of the atate convention. The Klder
iJemocrats. however, will have a, dis
tinct advantage in the fact that State
Chairman Pence will call the conven
tion to order. Until the convention per
fects a, temporary organization he will
IiomI the whip hand.
So far Governor Alexander has kept
out of it. a fact which ban brought him
ome condemnation and criticism from
I'Oth sides. However, it is plainly evi
dent the Governor proposes to keep out
of it. which will of course make him a
formidable candidate to succeed him
self. He will, however, be one of the
more conspicuous figure at the Poca
tello convention and may then decide to
take a hand in its affairs.

BERRY DEAL IS Ofl
Hood River Association Nego
tiates for Crops.
STRAWBERRIES ARE LATE
Kstimatc on Clierry Yield Is Double
That of l.ast Ye;ir ItcrriK-
crutor Cars to Be Used for
Shipments to East.
HOOD RIVER. Or.. April 22. (Spe
cial.) With the apple deal of the past
season closed, the officials of the
Apple Growers' Association, which con
trolled about 08 per cent of the straw
berry crop of the district last year
and practically the entire cherry out-
put. and which will ship, it is stated, I
about an equal percentage of this sea-
son's output, is busy on sales nego-
tiations for the soft fruit crops of the j
district. i
Wilmcr Sieg. sales manager of the
Association, announces that cherries
of the Royal Anne. General Wood. May
Duke, and other white varieties, al- '
ready have been sold in bulk to can- ;
ners. While the price is not given out.
Mr. Sicg declares that it is satisfuc- I
tory.
Refrigerators to Be Used.
Black cherries, the sale of which is
usually of a speculative nature, but
which on former seasons have brought
profitable returns to local growers,
will be shipped East in refrigerator
cars. The fruit will be packed in
strawberry crates. 24 '.full standard
pints to the crate. The valley pro
duced &5 tons of Royal Annes and six
carloads of black cherries last season.
The estimate of the coming crop placed
the yield at double that of last year.
The first fruit shipments will be of
the strawberry crop, which will be
three weeks later than last year, when
the first shipment was made on May
6. A few strawberry blossoms are re
ported, but it is six weeks from the
blossoming period until ripened fruit
in commercial quantities is harvested.
The association shipped 102 carloads
of fruit last year. The acreage this
season is increased about 33 per cent,
and it is expected that the .carload
quantities of this season will bo about
a third more than last year.
Better Prices Scoured.
The lateness of the. strawberry crop
this year should bring the fruit into
maturity this year during very warm
weather, directly opposite to the con
dition that prevailed last year with
the long continued cool weather. Be
cause of t.iis, a large quantity of over
ripe and field pick berries is expected.
The association has made arrange
ments to handle this surplus of non
shippable fruit at better prices than
have ever before been received.
Association officials deny ptories to
the effect that their apples have been
placed on consignment in Portland.
"We had 200 boxes of Newtowns left
over from the Portland advertising
campaign," said Mr. Sieg. "These were
left with different Portland concerns
on guarantee that practically amount
ed to sales. It is a fact, however, that
the apple market is winding up badly,
but we are not hurt, for all of our
fruit has been disposed of."

Ashland Mayor Casts Deciding Vote.
ASHLAND. Or., April 22. (Special.)
After much discussion over the Yneas
ure the ban on roller-skating on side
walks by a specific ordinance goes into
effect. The Council was a tie over the
proposition until the Mayor cast the
deciding vote. This action drives the
skaters from the walks to the paved
streets, where the danger is increased
twofold, and by many it is thought ad
visable to prohibit skating both on
walks and streets or else rescind the
recent enactment.
