Country Shipping Trade Is
& Good Even Though the
ii it Season Is Backward.
''Shipping trade in ths produce district
Is well up to the average ot previous
seasons. Even last year' a treat record
i being closely approached by tae ia
creasing demand for produce nowf com
ing from the country. ,
The Influx of -order is 'hwJ,i1JB
every line. Not a single fn"11 un;
affected by the Increased number oz
orders. The country mercnanV,1
stocking up for the summer, en their
stocks will compare favorably with
sea Rons that have passwo.
- i. nA nhninlnff Of OUalltT In
the goods ordered; thus indicating that
the country still has plenty ef-money
and storekeepers are unafraid ol thi
sltuaUoiu Whlls there haa not- been
such a good trade in the !r
?! W?.?? l we r known
that buslrieee begins to show Ita first
i - M linnlHS in I TIM CUIIIlirf.
l(fhich betterment la In turn followed by
an Improvement of like character in the
City.
. ' Season Affects Trad Somewhat.
Wer the present seasonr a, hormal
one In climatic conditiona it let quite
likely . that an even better showing
would be noted at this time, both in
city and country business, and especially
la the former. . , - ;
; There has scarcely been a apring at
all this year, and the usual spring is
turning very fast into the summer, and
thua far the weather showa no signs
nt . iwiktnliK. 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, .
Wood and Coal as Uxoeptlotu ;
Weather conditions are Just, about
right, say the wood and coal men, and
they are not making tb slightest note

ihis time they are too busily engaged
14, xiuing oraers to lain mucn. How
ever, they state that they have - sold
more fuel to date this season than ever
before.. The general opinion of the
' wood and coal trade ia that prices have
already touched their bottom and will
soon show an upward motion on their
own account because of the greater de
mand man usual.

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.

And how would you Ilka to have your

Professor Mathews, who used, In the
good old days, to have a lucrative prac
tice In the Marquara building, with very
fashionable parlors, has accepted the'
warning offered by the signs of the
times and departed, presumably for Cal
ifornia. Ths mystic N'Anganxi, until
recently the possessor of a handsome
suite at Seventh and Morrison, has also
dropped out of sight.
But sadder is the fata that has over
taken Bwaml SaUnanda, high priest of
the East Indies, favorite of the Indian

CASE COMPLETED
Judge Cleland has finished hearing
testimony in the case of J. Francis
Drake against M. B. Rankin. Drake
says he paid 82,200 or more to Rankin
at different times, and Rankin used the
money in timber deals, but he got few
of the promised proceeds. He sued for
an accounting and receivership. He
testified that he did not know that his
money, or part of it. was used to fight
the 'claim of 8. AD. Puter to the 11
verton tract. In which Puter won out.
He said he had full confidence in Ran
kin and gave no attention to the busi
ness himself. Rankin, in defense, said
that Drake accepted 84,000 in full set
tlement of all his claims. Judge Cleland

any trouble,'' said he. "But he got tired
doing the dirty work and raised an al
mighty big rumpus. That started the
thing and now you see where we are
