SPOKANE EXHIBITS ARE BEING PilCED The Hood Kiver exhibits in the Spokane National Apple Show are now icing put in place at the big lair and there is a bunch of enthusiastic Hood Kiver apple men on hand to see that this section has its fruit placed to the best advantage. Besides the carload sweepstakes en tries and the district exhibits there will be a number of smaller entries in the limited box displays. John Hakel, who won several prizes at Spo- une last year, has entered 4t boxes n a number of different classes and the Cutler Bros, have entered in several of the box contests. They will exhibit some line Ortleys, which is their specialty Arrangements have been made to ave the Hood Kiver carload displays face one another on two sides of u big aisle at the show and the other dis plays will be scattered. The apples were shipped to Spokane on Saturday nd Monday and the packers are now on the ground busy gutting ready for the show which opens Monday. Nearly II the packers trom here expect to enter the packing contest. Jack Robinson and Ralph Ordway eft Monday night and they will have charge of putting up the display of the Spitzenburg carloaJ which will be ex hibited by O. II. bproat. fernest t. Smith, E. 11.

A compliment was paid to Hood liver apples when an order was re ceived from the O. R. & N. ticket ollice in Spokane asking for a ten box exhibit to place on display in the oflice window during the Spokane show. The order said that they wished to get the best apples obtainable and came to Hood Kiver for them. HOOD RIVER CIDER Word has just been received from Vancouver, B. C, that Hood Kiver cider and vinegar, the only products of the Hood Kiver valley which were entered at the Canadian National Apple Show held recently, carried oil the first prizes. The entries were made at the Canadian Show by Walter Donnelly, a representative of the Hood River Apple Vinegar company in that territory. Hood River cider is thus adjudged the best product of its kind in either this country or Canada. The Hood River cider lactory is now doing a considerable business and has lened branches in I orlland, Van couver and Mm rranenco inrougn which the beverage will be sold Hood Kiver sweet cider is a great drink in Portland, where 25 carloads are consumed during the season am the metropolis also uses much vinegar from here. Mr. Donnelly, the sales man for the company, is very entlius lastic over the prospects tor this year and says that ho can sell 250,000 gallons of cider this year. CROSSELEf TELLS OF The laborious work of counting the votes on the lengthy ballot kept the election boards going until way into Wednesday night and complete returns are not yet available, but enough has been received to Bhow which way most of the votes are going. Oswald West, Democrat, seems to have won the governorship by about 5,000. Partial returns show thai Hood River will give Bowerman a majority of perhaps 100 votes. A. W. Ealferty is now the Congressman-elect from this district, going in with a big vote. His majority in Hood River will run several hundred. The rest of the state ticket is also Republican. Hood River went strong ly Republican on the State ticket. The Republican candidates for Su preme Judges seem to be elected by arge majorities although the Demo crats, who had the Nun-Political Judi ciary endorsement, are running far ahead of the rest of their ticket. A large complimentary vote in Hood Riv er county was given to Leslie Butler. andidate for State Treasuer on the Prohibition ticket and he may carry the county. Thomas Kay, the Repub- ican candidate is, however, Bure of election. The prospects are that Judge W. L. Bradshaw, Democrat, is re-elected. In complete returns indicate that Stark will run Bradshaw very close in this county. News from Wasco county was to the effect that Bradshaw is getting about two to one in that county. The running in Crook county may be close, but it is certain that Wasco's majority for Bradshaw will ect him. Incomplete returns Bhow that Gill. Republican, of Wacso, is sure of the joint representative and that Judge A. J. Derby has slightly the best of John Lclanu Henderson. Derby will pro bably have a lead in Hood Kiver county by nearly 200 and early returns said that he was running well in Wasco county indicating his election. County Clerk George D. Culbertson carried the county by a big majority for County Judge over Charles N. Clarke. Late predictions have been for his election, but I. is large majority was a great surprise. Ceorge A. McCurdy was elected County Commissi. n.er by a big major ity and the indications tire that Orson H. Rhuades will aiso be successful. M. M. Hill is running considerably ahead of the Democratic ticket, but East Hood River precinct, wheie he had 84 votes more than Kboudes, seems to be the only place where he is win ning decisively. lorn Johnson seems sure to be the next Sheriff of Hood River County. Bill Ganger, Democrat, ran well in the town precinjts, but Johnson, tho Republican, rolled up good leads in the valley. All the rest of the county offices went to the Republican nominees with liltle opposition. there is a lively contest tor the office of Constable in the Hood River district und early returns show thut Eph Olinger and Henry Hiekox are running close for that oilice. Hood River City was elected as the county seat by a large vote. Odell carried its own precinct and there were scattering votes for Cascade Locks, Winans and Van Horn. The indications are that the county has gone for local option prohibition by a small majority. If the county goes wet the indications seem to be that the subdivision of the county is going wet also. The early indications from the entire state are that the prohibition measures failed und that the Home Rule amendment was carried. Hood River county seems to have gone for Home Rule and against Prohibition by small majorities. On the measures to create new counties it seems thut they are being lost over tho state and Hood River county went against them all. The indications were that the Monmouth Normal School would bo successful with a chance for the other schools ut Ashland and Weston. Hood Kiver county vote gave Monmouth the best of it and the other two lost here. The employers liability measure Heems to be carrying the Btate und it will have a good majority in Hood River county. William Crossley, of the firm of D. Crossley & Sons, of New York, who is well known among apple men, was interviewed recently in Yakima, and expressed himself that the report of tho big sale by the Wenatchee Valley Fruit Growers Association was a ca nard. He says: "I read a newspaper account telling of the sale, and being in Spokane at the time , I went to Wenatchee to see what the facts were. The truth is that the sale never took place. The fruit which is said to have been in eluded in the sale is going out on con signment to commission merchants, and the growers will reoiive whatever the market brings. The whole story originated, in my judgment, in a de sire to make Hood River think Wenat chee had gotten a higher price for its upples than Hood River growers got." liig League Catcher Here. John J. A. Bliss, catcher on the St. Louis National league baseball .team, spent Saturday looking over the Hood River valley. Mr. Bliss has just finished the season with his team land is on his way to his house in Alameda, Cal. He was accompanied here by his aunt, Mrs. .Harris and her daughter. Miss Harris', whom he is visiting in Portland. The party was entertained by David Currier, Jr., and Mr. Bliss was much impressed with the valley. In his college days he played ball with the University of California. LeRoy Armstrong will leave shortly for Salt Lake City, where he expects to reside permanently with his family of grown children. (Continued on Second Pugo) TWO WOMEN HURT IN RUNAWAY Mrs. Roy C Brock and Miss Mowen, a guest at the homo of Mrs. Brock's mother, Mrs. D. II. Sears, hail a very narrow escape from serious injury Sunday afternoon when the horse they were driving ran away in the went part of town. When turning west from Thirteenth street at the corner of Paradise Farm, the bit broke, and they were unable to control the horse. The slight grade caused the buggy to run into tho horse and it dashed, kicking, down the street, running off the bridge near Cascade avenue and throwing the two ladies into a pile of loose rock. Before thrown out, both Mrs. Brock und Miss Mowen were struck by the horse's hoofs and they were painfully bruised about the body and limbs when they were thrown to the ground. The horse dashed on tearing away from the buggy which was considerably damaged. Mrs. Brock, who was unconscious, whs carried to the home of J. R. Kinsey and later both of the ladies were re moved to the home of V, C. Brock, father in-law of Mrs. Brock. The two ladies have now recovered and it is not expected that they will suffer permanent injury. Ben S. '.Candee, who has been in the valley for several months packing apples left the early part of the week for Spokane to attend the Apple Show. Mr. Candee expects his family from the east next year and will probably come to Hood Kiver with them to make his home.
