Unseasonable weather has held back trade in all lines, cloth ing, fruits and staples, witn lesser business in these lines It is but natural that city trade in groceries and the ne ceeslties of life, as well as luxuries. snouia o cumuea. , .-, - A Uttls Muring of Traits. - Perhaps of all lines affected by. the weather ia fruits. There haa been but little demand in this Una thus far, and the flush of the business seaeon ie al- . most upon us. f Cantaloupes are cheaper louay man lur unany yeara av vum uiun, due to the .heavy arrivals from the soutn ana the "indisposition or consum era to consume and ourohase. Peaches are finding little sale for . the same r en eon, although, arrivals are of ex cellent Quality. t This should be the time ror lemons te sen hk -not cases, but still the sales of lemons are small. Watermelons, which recently arrived here from California, have found few purchasers, because watermelon weath er has not yet arrived. Therefore, prices have been cut In half, and even this is no Inducement for the consumers to hurry and buy. v!; t v . . r, .

CAMPBELL TO GET ORTOII'S VOTES Deal Reported by Which Clackamas Man Is to Be Put in Saddle. James V. Campbell of Clackamas county wants the Multnomah delegation in hla fight for ths speakership of the next house. A W. Orton,.who haa bseji heralded as a leading candidate for that honor and who claims to have seven out of the 18 members of the delegation un der his banner, is now said to be will ing to forego his ambition and deliver the delegation, or his seven votes, over to the man from Oregon City. Aocord lng to some political prophets the deal haa already been made and all that re mains la for Orton to make good and deliver the goods when the time comes. Orton supporters contend that their champion has at least seven of the Multnomah delegation pledged to him. The rest, with the exception of Mc Ar thur and R. S. Farrell, are classed as "not having been seen." Campbell is recognised as a formidable candidate at this early stage of the game. Orton and his friends want to organise the legislature on strict statement No. l lines. This plan is opposed by many Statement No. 1 members. It is be lieved, therefore, that Orton, seeing that Into a combination with Campbell, who Is an old and experienced man In the legislature, and who Is at ths same time pledged to Statement No. 1, under the belief that both can land ths plum. urton is now wonting to gather the delegation together for consideration of the organization question, but most of the delegation think it is far too soon to start any entanglements over the organization. It Is not believed that the delegation will formally organise until late in tne summer, perhaps not until October.
