APATHY IN WASHINGTON.
Governor Hay Renominated Without
Opposition Vote Light.
Seattle The Btatewide primaries
were marked by apathy. The Seattle
newspapers made elaborate arrange
ments to display election returns, but
only a handful of people gathered.
Governor Marion E. Hay, Republican,
was nominated without any real op
position. In the First, or Seattle congress dis
trict, Representative Will E. Humph
rey was similarly renominated. For
congressman-at-large Frank Hammond
and J. E. Frost are leading in Seattle,
bat it is asserted that Hammond will
run behind Henry B. Dewey else
where. For state insurance commissioner,
John H. Schively, against whom a
bitter personal fight was made, ran
far behind State Senator H. O. Fish
back in King county and throughout
the state.
On the Democratic side no illumin
ative figures on the governorship are
obtainable, except that King county
scattering returns show that Elmer C.
Million, Democrat, is not running bo
well as was expected. Charles G.
Heifner, Democrat, seems to have
won the congress nomination in the
First district over Thomas R. Horner.
Supreme Justices Ralph O. Dunbar,
Overton G. Ellis and Wallace Mount
were renominated unopposed.
For attorney-general, W. V. Tan
ner, Republican, is renominated al
most unanimously.
In the first, or Seattle, district. 20
King county precincts give Heifner,
Democrat, for congress, 204; Horner,
96. Heifner's nomination is conceded.
Eighteen precincts in King county
for congressman-at-large give Frost
211, Hammond 161. Returns from
various parts of the state indicate the
nomination of Frost for one of the
two seats.
There was only one Socialist can
didate for each office.
The Socialist ticket, headed by Miss
Anns Maley, for governor, was nom
inated bv a mail referendum two
months ago, but under the state law
the candidates were obliged to go on
the primary ballot.
REBELS WELL FED.
Salazar's Men Live OfF Ranchers As
They Travel.
Douglas, Ariz. With his 400 fol
lowers living on the .'fat of the land,
Inez Salazar, the rebel general, is
moving slowly to the west along the
international boundary. He is closely
watched by United States cavalrymen,
who are following the rebel move
ments from the American side of the
line.
Salazar and his men remain at a
ranch until all the choicest cattle and
provisions are consumed and then
move a few miles west They are
slowly nearing Augua Prieta, the
Mexican town just opposite Douglas.
At last reports to United States
army officers here, Salazar's command
camped on the Mescal ranch, 25 miles
east of Augua Prieta, where the fed
eral garrison was strengthened by the
arrival of 100 soldiers from the South.
This makes the garrison number 300
men, but Salazar's force may be
strengthened at any time by the many
groups of from 200 to 400 rebels
operating in the vicinity.
RELICS ARE SAVED.
General Sickles Not Forced to Part
With War Trophies.
New York General Daniel E. Sick
les will not be obliged to part with his
relics of the Civil war, which were to
have been sold at auction to satisfy a
judgment of $8200 held by the Lincoln
Trust company. Daniel P. Hayes, the
general's lawyer, announced that
money to ' satisfy the judgment had
been raised and that the case would be
settled.
Tbe relics included commissions of
the peneral. many of them signed by
Abraham Lincoln, medals won by the
general in the war and at UettysDurg,
whnrA he lost his lee. letters from
men prominent in the affairs 'of the
Union and swords used in famous bat
tles. Valley Crops One-Half In.
Salem, Or. The continued bad
weather has damaged grain in the
shock about 10 per cent. Hops have
molded considerable, and possibly
there will be loss of 15 per cent. The
nrunes are undamaged, with only a
fair crop on the trees, as the frost
caught some of them early m the
snrinc. The foreeoincr refers only to
the unharvested portion of the crops.
At least one-half of hops are harvest
ed, and grain one-half in the bin, and
we think more. Barley is off color,
and will not be used for brewing.
Rain Increases Potato Crop.
Cornelius. Or. The following fig-
urea nro an near aa it is possible to
judge at present: Potatoes, bumper
crop, increased by rain probably 10
percent; wneat, average crop, eam
aoeA bv rain nrobablv 10 oer cent;
oats, average crop, one-half damaged
by rain, one-half not damaged; hay,
average crop, damage for entire sea
son, 35 per cent; hops, heavy crop,
damaged at present 10 per cent. The
potato crop is the largest known.
Famine Threatened In Siam.
Eugene, Or. A letter from C. A.
Steele, a newspaperman at Bangkok,
Siam, says that there is grave danger
of a famine in that country. There
has been little rain fall for two years,
and the exportation of rice has prac
tically ceased. ,
INDUSTRIAL DEVELOPMENT AND
PROGRESS OF
BIGGER FAIR URGEP.
J. H. Booth Proposes State Show to
Cost $1,000,000.
Snlem A $1,000,000 state fair is
the plan that J. H. Booth, of Rose
burg, president of the Oregon State
Board of Agriculture, hopes to see
worked out He believes that at least
$1,000,000 should be appropriated by
the legislature, not all at once, how
ever, and that some definite plan be
adopted for the permanent upbuilding
of the fair.
"The university and agricultural
college and other state institutions are
given appropriations almost without
stint," said Mr. Booth. "While prob
ably they need the money and deserve
it, I believe that there is no greater
educational factor in the state than
the state fair. This is essentially an
agricultural state. Any move which
tends toward developing the state's
agricultural interests to the highest
do nt of efficiency is, tinanciauy ana
in every other way, an upbuilding
factor in the state s progress.
By setting out a definite plan for
the state fair grounds and obtaining
stated amounts biennially to be used
toward working out that plan, the
state fair could be developed into one
of the most magnificent features of
the state, that would repay the money
exDended in many ways.
"Upon the nucleus which we have
we could build up tc the hnal attain
ment of the scheme for a great fair.
Every improvement which is put in
the grounds should be a permanent
one
"There should be good walks, good
buildings, a cattle judging arena elec
trically lighted, so that judging could
be done at night. The difficulties
that we have encountered this year
with the rains should be obviated by
all permanent covered ' buildings.
W hope to have a permanent pavilion
constructed with the $50,000 which
the last legislature appropriated, and
which, we trust, will be given us by
the next legislature overriding the
governor's veto.
"The fair should be placed in a po
sition where it will be able to handle
the crowds whether the weather is
wet or dry, a place provided where
agricultural lectures can be given
daily for the farmers, and the entire
show given over to the agricultural
interests. The agricultural and stock
displays at the fair I place first, and
the amusements last. The fair is for
educational purposes, and it is toward
that end we are constantly striving."
COVE CHERRIES STILL RIPE.
C. M. Stackland Thinks Oregon Is
Ideally Located.
Portland Although the bulk of the
cherry crop in Cove district has long
since been gathered and marketed,
cherries are still ripe in that section.
C. M. Stackland, of Cove, was in Port
land, Saturday, and brought to tbe
Commercial club samples of Bing and
Royal Anne cherries he had picked
from his own orchard, which are in
perfect condition. Mr. Stackland is
a member of the firm of Stackland
Bros., one of the largest fruitgrowing
concerns of the Cove district
Mr. Stackland had some interesting
figures to offer concerning this year's
cherry crop. From 227 trees, growing
on two acres, he sold 13 tons of Royal
Anne cherries to a cannery for
$1000.
"That the community may well en
courage the fruitgrower," says Mr.
Stackland, "is indicated in the wages
paid to workers in the Cove cherry or
chards. My brother and I picked 16,
000 gallons of cherries from eight
acres, and the picking and packing
cost $997.03. This means that $125
an acre was paid for labor in harvest
ing the crop, which shows that the re
turns from the cherry crop are widely
distributed throuhout the country.
"Although Cove is one of the best
known cherry districts in the state, I
believe that there are great areas in
Oregon, now lying idle, that could be
cultivated and made to produce fruit
just as good."
Steel Bridges in Umatilla.
Pendleton Umatilla county has
more steel bridges than any other
county in Oregon, according to C. H.
Martin, the civil engineer employed
by the county recently to construct
permanent highways and bridges
throughout the county. Every bridge
built in the county during the last six
years has been of steel and at the
present time 12 of these structures
are in course of construction. Two of
the new bridges are to replace wooden
ones carried out by the Butter creek
cloudburst.
Rain Saves Loss From Fire.
Medford Favorable climatic con
ditions and efficient fire protection
have saved Jackson county more than
a million dollars this season. Accord
ing to M. L. Erickson, supervisor of
the Forest service, there will be no
more forest fires in 1912, the recent
rains having eliminated the possibil
ity, the season of 1912 will establish a
record in the history of forest fires in
Southern Oregon.
Trout Stream Fished Out..
Dufur A petition requesting that
Fifteen-Mile creek be stocked with
trout has recently been filed with the
state fish and game commission. At
one time Fifteen-Mile creek teemed
with trout, but at the present time
this creek is practically fished out, and
unless it be stocked at an earlv date it
will be next to impossible to locate a j
fish in this creek.
OUR HOME STATE
ROAD NEARS END.
Grading Is Finished and Rails Laid
Moat of Way to Friend.
Dufur The work of extending the
Great Southern railroad from, this city
to Friend, about ten miles distant, is
nearing completion, and it is expected
that regular trains will be in opera
tion to Friend within a month.
Rails are being laid on the last two
miles of. the work, the grading being
all finished and the rails laid up to
within about two miles of the pro
posed terminus, and work trains are
being operated over the new road for
this distance. s
Sixty-pound rails are being used
and the roadbed and bridges are being
constructed in the best possible man
ner so that the heaviest kind of traffic
can be run over the road when com
pleted.
After the completion of this exten
sion the line from here to The Dalles
will be repaired, both roadbed and
bridges, and put in first-class shape.
The extension of the terminus will
probably necessitate tbe moving of the
trainmen and their families to Friend.
The officers of the Great Southern
company are seriously considering the
advisability of purchasing some sort
of a motor car to add to their passon
ger service. It is yet undecided
whether they will purchase a gasoline
motor or a car propelled by an electric
storage battery. However, as soon
as the business warrants the addi
tional service, it will be made as sug
gested.
The addition of a motor car will cut
the running time to The Dalles and
return nearly half, and be of great
convenience to the people along the
line.
The Great Southern expects a large
freight business, both in grain and in
fruit, this fall, and is making prepar
ations for handling this traffic.
MEDFORD WILL BUILD ROAD.
Citizens
Determined to Have
Line to Seaport.
Rail
Medford Medford is to have a rail
road to the coast. Tired of promises
by railroad companies and outsiders,
prominent Medford business men have
decided to do the job themselves
Papers were filed for the incorporation
of the Medford & Crescent City Kail
way company, and the preliminary
capitalization has been placed at $50,
000. .
That such a road will be of incal
culable benefit to Medford and the
Rogue River valley cannot be gain
said. It will open up a virgin mineral
and timber region, will tap the fertile
but undeveloped Applegate valley, and
will bring a great reduction in freight
rates. With the construction of the
Panama canal, it will mean that fruit
and produce can be shipped by water
to Atlantic Coast ports, and incident
ally a delightful summer resort will
be within easy distance of this city.
OREGON NATIVES GO EAST.
Albany Couple to Devote Nine
Months to Extensive Tour.
Albany Robert L. Burkhart, one of
the beat-known breeders of Jersey
cattle on the Pacific Coast, has started
on a trip East, during which he will
inspect the leading Jersey herds of
the country. On May 20, last, Mr.
Burkhart sold tbe Jersey herd which
he had been developing for several
years for $17,000 at one of the largest
public Bales ever held in Oregon.
Both Mr. and Mrs. Burkhart, who
are native Oregonians, have never
visited the Atlantic Coast and they
will devote nine months to an exten
sive tour of the East.
Big Hop Yard is Down.
Grants Pass Borne down with the
great crop of hops, with the added
weight of the rain on the dense foli
age, the entire Flanagan-Cornell hop-
yard of 100 acres lies flat on the rain
soaked ground, the supporting wires
having broken under the strain. Pick
ing had been in progress in the yard
for several days, but two weeks' work
is yet to be done before the crop is all
in the bale. A force of men is busy
raising the vines to bupports, and if
no further rain falls the quality of the
hops will not be damaged.
First Box From Eugene.
Eugene The first freight sent out
of Eugene over the new Oregon Elec
tric railway was shipped to Junction
City by the owners of a local grocery
and meat market. They sent to one
of their customers a consignment of
meat and vegetables, the shipment
going in a box car drawn by the con
struction engine. The track layers
have reached the business section of
the city, but the crossing has not been
made at the intersection of West Fifth
and Blair streets at the edge of the
city, where the P. & E. lines run.
Dallas to Install Fountains.
Dallas To accommodate the travel
ing public, the visiting farmers and
the local citizens, Dallas is to have
four public drinking fountains in
stalled on four of the principal corners
of this city. There is to be a large
fountain for horses-at the Main street
intersection. An effort is to be made
to get the drinking fountains in be
fore the Harvest Festival and School
children's Fair, October 3, 4 and,E.
MAINE GOES REPUBLICAN.
Haines Leads for Governor By 4000
Local Issuti Rule.
Portland, Mit,' Mains turned back
to the Republican party in the state
election, William T. Haines, of Wa
tervllle, being elected governor over
Governor Plalsted, his Democratic op
ponent, who sought a second term,
while the Republicans regained one of
the two congressional districts lost to
the Democrats two years ago.
The new legislature is expected to
have a small Republican majority, al
though returns before1 midnight were
not sufficient to show whether Edwin
C. Burleigh, ex-prepreaentatlve in
congress, Republican, or Senator
Gardner, Democrat, will be chosen to
the United States senate.
Returns for governor from all but
37 small towns give: Haines, Repub
lican, 69.615; Plalted, Democrat,
66,152. The missing towns In 1910
gave: Republicans, 1157; Democrat,
U94. Haines' plurality is estimated
at 3840.
These returns show a Republican
gain of 9 per cent and a Democratic
loss of 8 per cent.
COLORADO VOTE LIGHT.
Democrats Outnumber Republicans,
But None Show Interest.
Denver, Colo. Returns from Colo
rado's first state-wide primary at a
late hour were meager. The Demo
cratic returns received outnumbered
the Republican three to one.
Rough estimates show only one-third
of the registered vote In the state was
cast. In Denver the percentage is es
timated a( only one-fifth.
Results so far as known indicate
that E. M. Amnion is leading for the
Democratic gubernatorial nomination.
Clifford C. Parks, regular Republi
can, is leading Phillip H. Stewart,
Roosevelt Progressive Republican, for
the head of the Republican ticket
Governor Shafroth is leading Alva
Adams and T. J. O'Donnell for the
Democratic long-term senatorial nomi
nation, while Merl D. Vincent, Roose
velt Progressive Republican, bends
Clyde C. Dawson, regular Republican.
Charles S. Stone is unopposed for the
Democratic nomination for the Bhort
term in the United States senate.
James H. Brown is leading C. W.
Waterman for the Republican short
term in the United Status senate.
The light vote in the rural districts
was due to the fact that farmers took
advantage of the clear weather to har
vest their heavy crops. Few women
voted, some explaining the fact that
the ballot seemed so complicated they
were afraid of losing their vote and
so, paradoxically, they stayed away
from the polls.
VOTE LIGHT IN ARIZONA.
Hardly 10 Per Cent of Registered
Voters at Phoenix Go to Polls.
Phoenix, Ariz. Early returns in
dicate that the vote cast at the Ari
zona state primaries was exceedingly
light. Hardly 10 per cent of the reg
istered vote in Maricopa county, in
which Phoenix is situated, was cast.
Returns from Douglas showed that
only 30 per cent of the registered vot
ers had cast their billots there. The
figures so far reported from that city
gave: Democrats, 142; Roosevelt
Progressives, 139; Republicans, 21,
and Socialists, 11.
The total vote for the Progressives
reported from Prescott was 67. In
the same section W. E. Jones, E. A
Torres and George Babbitt, electoral
candidates, were leading; the Demo
cratic vote there by a strong majority.
Yuma, Ariz. The vote here at the
primaries was light. In Yuma and
two outside precincts, the Democratic
ticket received nine votes; the KooHe
velt Progressive, 72: the Socialist, 20
and the Republican 12.
Great Highway Proposed.
Indianapolis, Ind. A macadam
roadway to extend from New York to
San Francisco, a distance of 3310
miles, and to cost $25,00 0,000, was
proposed here at a banquet of 300 In
diana automobile manufacturers and
dealers, who subscribed $300,000 to
start the campaign in this state. The
plan is to furnish material, at a cost
of about $12,000,000, free to the
counties through which the road will
pass, the counties to pay only the cost
of construction, which is to be under
government supervision. .
Idaho Women Plan Bolt.
Boise, Idaho A Republican ticket,
made up entirely of women candi
dates, will be placed in the field in
Idaho this fall against the regular
Republican and Progressive tickets.
The'women members of the Republi
can party In Idaho announced that
they bad become disgusted with the
wrangling in the party and decided to
place a ticket of their own before the
people. The women will hold their
convention here this week.
Subway Plans Complete.
Chicago Plans for Chicago's pro
posed subway system were completed
and presented by a sub-committee to
the city council committee on sub
ways. The plans provide for four
main lines traversing the city. The
estimate for construction is $96,257,
000, and for equipment $34,884,000.
The system would have a capacity of
187,000 passengers an hour.
Ismay Resigns,
New York J. Bruce Ismay, who
figured in the news a few months ago
by being among the Titanic survivors,
is to resign as president of the Inter
national Mercantile Marine company.
