Jinciry Causes of - the ltelay ; . - 14 ..V.iv-!V rasl Tha battle between A. B. Oroasman, representing the business men of Port land, and F. A. Bancroft, who U credited with being the nominee of tha "Jack" Matthews faction of tha Republican par ty, for the appointment ,ae postmaster of Portland, did not come to a finish on Sat urday in Washington, as was expected, and now the announcement is made that nothing will be done Ull Congress recon vene on January i. y .' v The cause of the delay undoubtedly lies In the fact that tha Oregon delegation. Senators Simon and Mltohelt- -have not been able to come to any understanding dn the matter. Senator Simon Is now on his way to Portland and will probably arrive here Tuesday night or Wednesday morning, at which time If the Senator will talk-the exact atatus of the case wjU doubtless be learned.. , .' ; :. ,; Opinion in Portland Is general that the delay in the appointment is favorable to Croasman,' tha present ' Incumbent, and It la thought extremely doubtful that the President will ignore the very general - mand from tha prominent business bouse of tha city for his reappointment. . That the people of both parties through out the state take a very active Interest In the matter and that the conditions which surround the fight are by them thoroughly understood Is to be seen by the appended quotation from a recent Is sue of the Salem Capital Journal, which says -under the head, 'The Portland Post office Case:" "Practically, all the business men of Portland have united In a demand- that President Roosevelt re-appoint Postmaster Croasman, of that town, as. a protest against the assumption of State Chair man Matthews to dictate the appoint ment. "Nearly 1,000 names of business men have gone down in a formal manner and been preeented to President Roosevelt through Congressman Moody business men -representing nearly 1100,000,000 of capital. -- ...... 'This unanimity of sentiment to retain worthy and competent official over rides all factional differences within the party, and oxtends beyond partisan lines. The Republican party and the people of Portland sink all differences when it comes to sustaining Mr. Croasman. "When the caae comes fullv before President Roosevelt It' will be found to be one of the squares t on the records, in which the. party and the- Beoole demand. a jponnnuance .of a gentlemanly and Able omciai, and a single self -constituted boss assumes to dictate his successor. 8 till more squarely on its feet is this a case where a boss assumed to demand the removal .of competent subordinates, some of whonl have been appointed at his own request, when he was assistant postmas ter at romand. -, j . . 'Because he cannot have elerka and outer employes removed at his pleasure. ne aeciares lie will have a postmaster appointed who will do his bidding.. This threat coming from a man who was at the same time Republican Stat Chair man and -United States Marshal, Is on i vi mo moei reroarxaDie cases of offensive partis-nsnm in the history of polities. "If Mr. Jack Matthews is sustained in his fight for prestige from a purely spoils basis, neither for the good of tha service nor the party, the effect will be far-reach ing politically. It will turn Portland up side down, and may affect state politics Jt was almost entirely Au tn ur- Mat thews' management that the last state campaign cost the Republican party the governorship of Oregon for four v.at Of course, he had help in tha way of minor noaeea in turning the state over, so far as the office of chief executive. But even those local bosses are now -. rayed against him in several The matter Is entirely in the haads of rnuuni nooeeveil. v . ,. . . .

Vf,T;v ? .1'""'""""""""" """" Weather God Did Not Do WeU by . , inosc ; wtsoing to Sow In the opinion of H W. McComas, one of (he moat prominent grain buyers of iaatern Oregon, and a resident of Pendle ton, the amount of wheat that rolls Port- landward from tha valleys of the Uma tilla, Walla Walla and Columbia will bo curtailed durln the coming; season, be cause of the leakage from the Willamette Valley that. for once gave' tha first men tioned sections too much rain. Mr. Mc Comas Is In Portland today on business. and In speaking of the crop outlook, said: "Too much rain is the cry this fail fend winter, - where before the prevailing in clination has been toward droufifr-lf.it ever varied from exactly what it should do.' This rain, coming at a time wben the farmers should have been engaged In sowing their fall wheat, prevented this i work, and not. more than So per cent -of the acreage bas been covered,.' Winter wheat Is always the best producing, and ' for this reason noxt year's crop will be short. -.-yv .;. - : WEtL SHIPPED OUT. "The crop of 1902 has been welt cleaned out. i Umatilla County produced 8,500,000 hnshels of wheat this year. There, ia about 10 per cent, of this that has not been shinned out. and some of that re maining- is already sold., This same con-; dltlon, both as to. shipment and super abundance of moisture, applies equally to the Walla Walla Valley. Prevailing prices have been- good and the farmer ns a rule "have done we!l:V Mr. McComas believes that the rebuke that was administered to Eastern Ore gon through turning down by the people of W. J. Furnish, the Pendleton candi date for governor, is alone responsible for the failure of Judge Stephen A. Low- ei to appear as a senatorial canaiaate. VIEWED FROM AFAR. "Wo flf the East Bide are viewing the political battle from afar," said Mr. Mc Comas. "We had our little fling and lost. Although we have not yet sat down, w have gone 'way back,' and are Just 'standing' 'round. Of course, we take an interest in the senatorial fight, but that Interest Is not particularly near home. I do not believe the East 84de has a candidate. I have never heard one discussed, - "Wool and wheat is attracting atten tion and energy -over our way.
