Estimates of the apple crop in the
I'nltod States, made yesterday by the
American Apple Growers' Congress,
at the last session of Its convention
at the Southern Hotel, showing a
gloomy outlook for the fruit this year.

held out only by the districts which
did not suffer from the copious spring
rains which washed the pollen out of
the blooms and from the killing frost
which came about the end of April,
says the Hood River News-Letter.

Many Indians front the Umatilla
reservation are preparing to go to
Toppenlsh for the big annual potlatch
of the Yakima Indians, which Is to be,
held near that place, beginning Oc
tober .'. There are a number of
Yakimas here and as the bonds of
friendship between the Cmatillas and
the Yakimas are close there will be
a large number of the former go over
to participate with their friends In the
festivities.
Though this event is one of the
few remaining relics of a number of
tribal customs, the ways of the white
man are gradually being adopted In
the manner of its celebration. No
longer will the big horse races be
held out on the open pralrlo or even
on some dusty straight-way road. A
race track Is being constructed and
a grandstand erected from which the
dusky reds can view their greatest
sport.
For a number of years the annual
potlatch has been held on the farm
of an Indian belonging to the Klicki
tat tribe, which fact has kept many
of the Yakimas from participating.
It seems that In the troubles of the
early days the Klickltats took sides
with the whites against the Yakimas,
thereby engendering a hatred which
has never entirely been forgotten, es
pecially by the older Indians. This
year a family of Yakimas Is to be tho
host and It is expected that the cele
bration will be the most largely at
tended of any in recent years.
While various Indian stunts will be
pulled off. the principal attraction will
be the horse racing. There will be
purses put up for Indian races every
afternoon and for one day there will
be offered a purse of $ 1 00 for a race
between horses belonging to Indians
' those belonging to whites. Chief
among the Indians who will partici
pate In the races will be a number
of Umatillas who think they have fast
horses and are confident they can re
turn home with some of the Yakima
wampum.
