Weathek The rainfall was l
low the normal j tho temperature
eioler than the average by 2 degree
dally and the sunshine ubovc the
average during the p.i-U week. The
weather conditions were favorable,
since previous rains havo saturated
the ground, making it ditlhult to
work. The exee-ive sunshine was
most acceptable. The ehow crs w hich
occurred during the later ortiou of
the week were undesirable; they in
terfered with the progress of farm
work, though not seriously.
Crops Taking Into consideration
the time of the season, the weather
of the past week was most acceptable
and favorable to the advancement of
vegetation. The season Is slightly
later than the average In the Willa
mette valley and in the coast dis
trict. The decrease of precipitation
and higher temperatures have pro
duced a gradual improvement. The
surface of the earth Is covred with
grass, which is making a vigorous
growth. Pastures are furnUhlng
nutritious food for stock; there Mug
grass sufficient for stock, filing has
ceased in many sections. Winter
Wheat continues to Improve, the dull
red color on low-lumls caused by ex
cessive moisture is rapidly disap
pearing. ' The vigorous growth and
healthy apis-aranco of wheat on
higher lunds suggests an abundant
harvest. Sis-ding is progressing,
though the ground is difficult to
work. Peach ami cherry trees are
In full bloom In the Willa.nctto val
ley, and all other fruits are show ing
thebloom. Straw ls-rries are In full
bloom. Iu the southern counties of
Josephine, Jackson ami Douglas the
bloom is far lu ad vani-e of other sec
tions of the state. Plum, jsaili,
eherry, jsmr, apple ami silver prune
tree are In full bloom, and almond
trees ar dropping bloom. Fruit
prospects never were lietter. Vege
tation in Cole's valley ami Youcalla
section of liouglas county, is not so
far advanced as iu other sections.
Clackamas county hop fields have an
air of priwtpcrity. (irowcrs fail to
recall hop vines susrior or further
advanced. It may Is too early to
estimate the crops of the coming
season. The opinion Is generally
expressed that the hay crop is as
sured, and an abundance of fruit ami
grain may be expei ted. Frost that
Injured some peach blooms occurred
oi) the 2d. Other light frosts, w hich
wero not injurious, occurred on the
3d, 4th and 7th. All kinds of slin k
are In good condition. The opinion
is corn-lit that tlie wool clip will Is
fully up to the average. Improve

gonhin thus pictures the ttmis-r of
the party representatives assembled.
"Men who have Is-en active poll
ticlaus in this stale for lo years de
clared that they never fully realized
what republican enthusiasm, meant
until they entered the convention
yesterday in ChainU-r of Commerce
hall, They had seen similar gather
ings aroused to frienzied admjratioii
of a man -or. frantic approval of a
measure, but never had they wit
nessed the whole structure of repub
licanism so wildly Idolized as It was
by the 208 representative men who
assembled to draw the party's line of
battle for the campaign of 191.
Every reference to past achievement
or present" outlook . was wildly
cheered, and each allusion to the
ancient foe evoked sarcastic murmurs
of pity. But one sentiment seemed
q possess the gathering, delegates
and spectators that whoever the
party should nominate would l
entitled to the vote of every republi
can In Oregon, llie disnpiMiinted
claimant of the convention's favor
were first to grasp the hand of 'their
successful rival and pletlgo him their
earnest help. Behind all s-rsonal
ambition was a desire for complete
republican restoration to power that
served lo prevent sorcheadism."
The republican avalanche In the
recent elections helped 11' Nell In Ids
contest for Joy's sat by frightening
the democrats Into dishonesty, but
the avalanche In Novemls-r will bury
him under such a mass of votes that
hi friend in the house won't ls able
to pull him out.
