June And November.
If the Republican majority In Oregon
should be entail In June; 11 the majori
ties of former should yeara fall ; If the
Legislature ahonld full to a considerable
extent into the hand of the opixisitioi. ;
if one or the other of the Kcpnl licun
members of Congress should be lost,
every person knows there would be im
mediate and loud assertion that the Re
publican rarty was on the decline, that
President Roosevelt was manifesly weak
and the chances of his election were van
ishing away, Though this state is not a
powerful one, a poor result In Oregon in
June would be a "tremendous blow to
President Rooxevelt and to the prospects
of the Republican party. ,
These are the reasons that make it
necessary to get the Republican vote
out in June, and to make the majorities
full, - -The greatest service Oregon can
render to President Roosevelt, for whom
this state undoubtedly has high and un
usual regard, is to make a result in June
which Bhall be recognized as phenom
enal Republican victory. The more com
plete all along the line the better. Ad
mit no subterfuge or deception, through
the declaration that, as Oregon will vote
for Roosevelt In November, anyway, it

"To make Portland the metropolis o(
the Paeillc coast and never to cease
work in this direction until the end is
reached Is the key noto of the addresses
made at last night's meeting of the
Commercial club. At this meeting the
club's new manager, Thomas Richard
son, of New Orleans was introduced to
the business men of the city and his
reception was a royal one. Plans for
widely extending the work of the body
were discussed. Two hundred and fifty
representative business and professional
men of 1'oriland attended the meeting,
which was held in the club's room in
me mamner oi commerce Dunning.
Knthusiasiu ran riot and everyone
present resolved lierealter to Uo every
thing in bis power to advertise the
resources of this city and state through
out the world."
The above Item in a Portland paper
hows what Pcrtland thinks about a
live business nien's club. While the
old residents and business men of Port
land have grown rich as the country and
city grew up around them, and are now
living a life of contentment and ease,
the live cities to the north In the state
of Washington have grown op large
enough to be dangerous rivals in the
struggle for supremacy as the future
metropolis of the Paeillc coast. Seattle,
by her aggressive and systematic adver
tising, is becoming a great city. She is
capturing considerable trade that UBcd
to go to Portland. She has a business
men's or commercial organisation that
ivnvre nu eione uiuunuHj to unng otiBl'
ness to ' Heattle. Inducements are
offered to capital to establish factories
and institutions that employ labor
Printed matter allowing up the advaii'
tages of Seattle is sent to every impor
tant center in the United States, and
Seattle is as well known by reputation
in the East as Chicago. Portland is
not much talked about and seldom
mentioned. The business men of that
city have at last awakened to the danger,
and have taken the proper steps to keep
that city in the front ranks of the pro
cession. The result will repty the
efforts and money spent many fold.
Portluiid Fruit Growers Association.
The growers of small fruits in the
vicinity of Portland have recently held
anumberof meeting.' at Rusaetlville, and
have effected an organixatio ondep the
name of the Portland fruitgrowers As
sociation. At the meeting held May 7,
articles of association and !iyiivi were
adopted. - The objec of t In- s. i riution
is stated by these article u be the regu
lation of the price of sinail f:tii s in the
interest of the members.
As an incident to this oinciiHHion the
fact was brought out that a lull' crop
from vine" at their best on first class
land for the different, varieties may be
estimated about as follows: Magoons,
8,000 pounds per acre; Wilsons, 4,000
iounds per acre, and Clark's teedjing,
,500 pounds per acre. These are' not
the biggest yields known, but are con
siderably alove the average. Two or
three growers Baid Magoons would yield
at leant four times as much per acre a;
Clark's seedling. It should be under
stood that these yields apply to the clan
of soils prevailing about. Portland. On
sandy soils which are irregated, larger
yields of Clark's seedlings are secured
than on the clayey soils which pre ail
about Portlad.
The otllcers of the association are o
follows: President, 11. J. Mickleson;
vice-president, James January; secre
tary, Edward Gill ;treasuer.W. E.Lewis.

ges on the lives. Mr. Day believes that
overproduction of oranges is near at
hand.
At Watsonville, just below San Fran
cisco, he found apple growers rather
unhappy. This is the section which
grows more Newtown pippins than any
where else in the world. Virtually
every carload goes to England. The
exportation of thcaO 'apples from New
York during'tho fall and winter of WOO
1 were 104,000 Ihixcs; during 1001-2,
205,400 boxes; during 1002-3, 180,1100
boxes; and this past winter, 1003-4,
321, 000 boxes were sent front New York
City. In these exports were alao inclu
ded a liumlier of ears of New tow ns from
southern Oregon, Medford, Central
I'oiut, etc., and a few from Hood River.
The prices in England las' season
were bail. In fact the Watsonville
Ncwtowns did not average much above

money, w hich sends buck to California

that there will be 500 carloads less this
season.
In southern Oregon Mr. Day found
a large crop of Newtown pippins and
Spitaenhergs coming on, and the new
acreage set out to these apples in this
section is perfectly enormous, so that
in a few years the exceptionally high
prices that the growers have been receiv
ing will undoubtedly at least be cut in
two. '
Hgobel & Day are very large receivers
of green fruit from all over the north
west, representing most important
growers at The Dalles, Walla Walla,
North Yakima, Snake Kiver, Eastern
Osegon, Cove Union, and in the Itoise
Section of Idaho.
As to cherries, Mr. Day said the finest
came from California. They are Black
Tartarian, Jtlack Republicans, Royal
Anns. The selection and packing is
simply perfect and they sell far above
any from the northwest. The cherries
from around I'orlland never have car
ried well to New York and the only
other sections in t'-o northwest from
which cherries hsvv ben sent to this
market is from the r-'na! o River, Lewis
ton. Several cars went to tigobel & Day
last season. They feei'e the Ring, Black
Republican and Roval Ann. The few
of them which ari'.vcd sound, sold from
(H.05 to 1-.M7 per box, hut the great
majority were not well selected nor well
packed and did not arrive sound ; so
they sold at unsatisfactory figures. The
grade of fruit is all right and with the
name care in selecting and packing as
that given to the California truit, there
is no reason why this fruit should not
do very well. No cherries have been
received In New York from Hood River.
but if t)i' same can be produced here
as fine in quality, size and color as the
apples they should sell well in New
ork.. The Lambert and Ring are the
cherry for the future because of their
Hize, color and carrying dualities.

game standing 7 to 4 in favor of Hood
Kiver at the end. The game began at
