No oplatmm In connection with the Oregon Wool Growers' association, the Port land ommercial club has launched a campaign to necure the annual convention of the National Wool (Irowers' association In 1911, savs the Sunday Portland Oregonlan. The next session of th? wool growers will he held In Og.len.. January 6, 7 and 8. A Hlrong clelegat on will attend thlH convention prepared to bring the sheepmen to the beaver state the following year. Oregon is the Bec ond word growing state in the union and It Is believed her claims to rec oKnltion will be successful. Oregon Growers Active. At the recent convention of the Oregon Wool Growers' association at Pendleton It was decided 10 send a delegation to Ogden next month with the purpose of capturing the next annual gathering of the wool men. This convention will be a very Important one, bringing together, as It w'll, the men actively engaged In one of the most Important Indus tries of the country. Secretary Dan P. Smvths of the Orecon association, ha called at the Commercial club and asked Its cooperation to secure the convention and this was readily given. The Commercial club will send a delegation to OgJen. This will cons'st of B. H. Trumbull, com mercial agent of the Illinois Central and D. O. Lively, manager of the Portland union stockyards, who will cooperate with the sheep men In at tendance from this . state, and will bear the official Invitation. A. L. Mackintosh, a member of the executive committee of the Oregon Wool Growers association, ca'led a committee meeting at the Commer cial club, at which the matter was talked over and plans' outlined for bringing the wool men here In 1911. Plana of entertaining the convention are already being discussed and It Is said the attention to be Bhown the wool growers here will surpass the hospitality they have been accord ed by any of their convention cities. Iiow Rate Offered. A rate of one and one third fare has been offered by the railroad for the Ogden convention and there Is every reason to believe that mere will be a very large attendance from th's state. It Is expected there will be a special train of four Fuumans, with dining and baggage cars, that will rendezvous at Pendleton on the morning of January 6, returning ar ter the convention. A Pullman will leave Portland on the night of the 4th and cars from other points win meet at Pendleton. - If a special ,. I secured It will mean that there will bo at least 75 delegates from th s state at the Ogden conven tion and very likely this number will reach 125. With such a large dele gation it la said there would be no trouble in securing the convention Tnvt1nnf1 Manager Tom Richardson of the Commercial club has had appropriate that bear the legend: Tortland 1911." These will be ta ken by the Ogden delegation and used in the campaign to bring the inn ,r..tv,nrir,o- here. The Commer- iv Vina communicated with I n l v . " -" " Wilkesbarre, Pa. "Is a baseball player a slave?" This question was brought out forcibly In the Luzerne county court 'today In an action which resulted from the selling of a player from one club to another club and it Is alleged that such a sale is in direct violation of the Thirteenth amendment of the constitution of the United states. The case is attracting great attention in the baseball world. Last July -the owners of the Wilkes barre club of the New York State league purchased from the Allen town club of the Atlantic league, Joseph Pelekuin, a pitcher, for 1500. Of this amount 300 was given In cash and the other $200 was given In a note which was allowed to go to protest and suit was brought for the balance. A Justice gave Judgment. Today Manager CI mer of the Wilkes barre club filed his defense to the ac tion, holding that the Bale of a player was In violation of the federal laws covering slavery and that therefore the note was void. The court will take action In the matter next month. Snllnoiull'l Testimony. ' J. N. Paterson, night policeman of Nashua, Iowa, writes: "iast wimv I had a bad cold on my lungs and tried at least half a dosen advertised cough medicines and had treatment from two physicians witnout getting any benefit.
