THE OREGON DAILY JOURNAL. PORTLAND. THURSDAY. EVENING, DECEMBER 3. 1908. , FRUIT M TO On .Account of Eules of Spo kane Apple Show That City Is Out of Running as Convention City Profita ble Addresses Delivered. j.' Tacoma i will In all probability be ! chosen as tha next meeting place for I the Northwest Fruitgrowers' assocla- lion, it i business session of the as j sociation to be held this afternoon the rival -claims of Spokane, Tacoma end : I Moscow, Idaho, will be considered by ? the association. Tacoma seems to be J the favorite, at least unofficially. -y Telegrams of congratulation and In (- vltation to hold the next convention in 1 their cities were received this morning; j from" both Tacoma and Spokane. ' It ' seemed to be the general opinion of the t fruitgrowers that the alleged dlsad l vantageous rules of the National Apple show and the discrimination, against Oregon growers would keep Spokane from . securing the next convention. The question of whether the exhibit 1 V ef apples now being shown In the Wood : men building should be sent to the na i tional show at Spokane has not yet been f decided, and is still being fought out by ; the fruitgrowers. It is a certainty, . f will not enter for prises in the national snow. eul General Miliar described conditions In the orient wltn reference to possi bilities for an apple market. Japan irrows its own apples, and is a. con elderable competitor with the United States in the markets of 'Russia and Siberia. Apples that are produced In Japan seem to be equal in quality to those grown in the United States. There are many pests, ana in some instances the manner of fighting them is pe culiar. To avoid the cnrilinsr moth the embryo apple, after t apepars, is tiedn tip in a little on Bar or paper and thus shielded to maturity. The paper is very win ana us presence seems to in teifere neither with growth or color. . - Japan as future Competitor. , Mr. Miller predicted that the next 16 years Japan would in her Industrial de velopment astonish the world more com pletely than sh did la her amazing military acnievemenia. He said .there Is a good market in China for apples, and that large volume of apples can be sold there. The Ben Davis variety is the best to shin there, because It can best endure the lung six weeks' sea voy age. It is better to ship them by the northern routes, because the heat is too intense via the southern routes. The association unanimously arinntri a resolution protesting against the bill proposed in congress for changing the size of dimensions of the apple box in use by Pacific coast shippers. j packing and marketing of fruit was the , Keynote or me aaarosses at tne meet ?

Shepard of Hood River, and another by : W. A. Paulham of PuyaHup, Wash., s were emphatia in urging that the way i to success in tne industry i tarougn r organization, and that the mora cerfect the organization, the more complete the . success. Mr. Faulhamus -described tho , operations of . the PuyaHup union, and mads it clear that without organization no degree of success c "be attained. , Mr. Shepsrd described the Hood River - i union, which in believed to be tbe moist perfect of its kind in the country. It ' . has secured a perfected condition la the i packing or tne rrutt It has reached a similar stage of achievement with rf i nrence to marketing. It Is absolutely informed with reference to the world's " markets, and Its organisation renders f it able to place its fruit to the best pos ; bible advantage.: -.- , A third important achievement that It i f ast-reaehing-Ja hat of securing : uniformity in grading. This la one of . the most' important, of all the features ' iln the fruit business. The buyer must i learn through uniform grading what to ; expect, and Iii taTs the Hood River union Is rapidly attaining a high standard. t- At this afternoon's session.

Un derneath the seeming quiet that pre vails throughout the city today there Is general fear of impending develop ments and the real danger seems to lie In the new anti-American feeling. - Henry V7.

Is within. 26 miles of the city and la - expected to arrive tomorrow, Eourlers have been sent by President egltime In ' order to ascertain his at titude toward the new government, but no reply ha been received. It is prob able that Oeneral Simon's purpose will not be known until he reaches the city. If he eheoses to take the government Into Ills own hands he probably could do so.

H Rrandatetter. a caDltalist: Frank lin & Co.. commission merchants; A. D. Chaso and Harry Young, the latter man ager of the Independent Steamship of fice, this city. ' Mr. Young stated this morning that the steamer Argo has been secured and that Captain William Jones, formerly of ths steamer Delia B. and the gaso line sloop Condor, has already started for 6an Francisco to bring the Argo to this port. The Argo was formerly on the Ban Francisco-Eel river run, but has been tied up for soma time. She Is a twin screw boat. 117 feet in length, 28 feet wide and drawing only eight feet of water. This, it is Bald, will make bar excentlnnallv suitable for the run. as the channel to Tillamook. City after crossing the Tillamook bar nas a aeptn of about 10 feet. . Arrangements are also being made for a landing place in this city and It IS understood that Oak and Couch street docks are under consideration. It was stated- this morning that In all prob ability the Oak street dock would be chosen as being more central. Merchants of Tillamook bay have cried long and loud for better transpor tation facilities than those that have existed for the past many years, when the steamer Sue H. Klmore and the gasoline schooner Delia B, both owned and operated by Samuel Elmore of As toria, have been about the only means of transportation. During rough weather these craft have been bar bound so that at times, especially In winter, Till amook has been practically- off the map. The Elmore is a much smaller boat than the Argo and yet it is said that Bhe has been earning large profits for her owner. The Elmore -is operated out of Astoria and consignments from this city have therefore had to be trans shipped with more"3r less delay. The Argo will be In command of Cap tain Jones who Is now on tils' way to bring her here from Ban Francisco, and Chief Engineer A; Dunham of the steam ship Roanoke will be chief engineer. Harry Young will Da tne Portland rep resentative. The steamer- has capacity for ISO tons of freight and will be equipped so as to accommodate about 60 passengers. These accommodations will be provided as soon as the steamer arrives here. v The establishment of the new line will mean a great deal of new trade in Portlands . for Tillamook buys large quantities of general merchandise, feed, hardware and manufactured goods, while Captain E. B. Parsons Will Succeed Captain Olson on the Alliance. Captain E. B. Pars&ns;-formerly with the Pacific Coast Steamship, company, will succeed Captain W. B. Olson as master of the Portland-Coos Bay. liner Alliance. Captain Parsons left San Francisco yesterday and will take the Alliance out next Saturday night. Cap tain Olson, who has been appointed to command tha large freight steamer Nann Smith of Coos Bay, will probably leave on the Alliance as passenger. The Alliance arrived here lata last night with a full list of passengers and considerable freight. Captain Olson re ports having had fine weather both ways, the sea being as smooth as a floor on the return trip. The weather was clear and taken all In all It la said the voyage was the most pleasant that could be imagined.
