SHINGLE MILLS
TO CLOSE DOWN
Western Washington Prices
Reduced Is per cent
in Month.

SEATTLE, Wash, Oct. 5.-A four
months close down of all shingle mills
in the state may be ordered to take eff
feet on November 1. A conference of
single manufacturers was called to-
day to be held on October 10 and the
only questions to be considered is that
of closing the mills.
The single market has gone to
pieces and there is a fear expressed
that a further decentralization will oc-
cur. Shingles selling a month ago on
the basis of SO or better for stars are
now going begging for $2.25 and 1t is
feared if the present uncertainty con-
tinues that the price may go down still
lower
Dan Bass, former president of the
Shingle Mills Bureau, was in town yes
terday. just after the bureau had sent
Bass was asked to take charge of a
movement to close down the mills and
as he is DYE of the most prominent
makers of clears and other high grade
shingles in the market he may do So.
The new single rates become effect
i've on November and the manufac-
turers will then face a demoralized
condition of the market as we'll as an
increased cost of transportation.
IF the mills are operated throughout
the year experience has shown they
will manufacture about 33 per cent
more shingles than the present market
can absorb 1t has been necessary for
several years to order a close down of
from two to three months a year and
the advance in freight rates is believed
to demonstrate that a four months
close down is essential now.
Irrespective of the freight conditions
the market opened in the East is I'M
able to absorb the Washington shin
giles. Manufacturers in this state and
Oregon turn out rs per cent of the
shingles sold in this country, but pat
ent roofing has been cutting into the
Western shingle markets within the
past few years. Single manufactur-
ers claim the patent roofing will not
bound to be temporary loss of trade.
This coming on top of other conditions
makes their condition precarious. A
close down has been profitable in
the past and it is expected it will pull
out the mills this year IF the move
succeeds the plants viii shut down
November l and reopen March l.

HOT FIGHT IN
OLD BAY STATE
Whitney and Ledge in the
Foreground With the
Tariff Issue.

BOSTON, Mass, Oct. 5.-The fer
witnessed in score of years begins
tolay with the holding of the state
nominating conventions by the two
leading parties. While the republicans
are holding their convention in Bos-
ton the democrats meet at Springfield.
Governor Curtis GULL, Jr., and Lieut..
Gov. E. S. Draper will be renominated
by the republicans. Fl nry M. Whit
ney will be the democratic standard
bearer and his running mate in all
probability will be George A. Scho-
field, of Ipswich well known as the
persistent advocate of the veterans
bounty bill.
The campaign is bound to attract
national attention. The administration
itself is concerned deeply over the out
sachusetts for two reasons-one that
Senator Henry Cabot Lodge, the clos
est friend of President Roosevelt in
congress, is confronted with a desper-
ate fight as leader of the state organ
ization, and the other that Henry M.
Whitney, the democratic nominee, is
known as the original members of the
"Ananias club
Henry M, Whitney is going to make
his campaign on a tariff reform plat
form. He is a.brother of the late Will
liam c. Whitney, of New York, man
of large financial interests, who has
long taken a prominent part in the
politics in the state, but until few
years ago, not in a manner to give
him great national prominence. Thos.
w. Lawson helped to bring him into
prominence by making him one Of the
characters in "Frenzied Finance" Mr..
whitney's hobby in politics has been
tariff reform, and on that issue he
came near being chosen lieutenant
governor two years ago
A year or so ago he went to Wash
ington and called on President Roose-
welt to voice the demand of Massa-
chusetts tariff revisionists for certain
lines of action. Afterward he gave out
some statements IeltNiNO ~ tiAihSS ~
said the president had told him he fa-
vored, and a forcible denial from
President Roosevelt followed. That
started the famous "Ananias club.
and likewise stirred up much of the
trouble about tariff revision of which
Massa chusetts has been the center.
Senator Lodge is fighting with all his
power to force the tariff and all ma
tional issues to the rear on the ground
that they have no place in a purely
stale campaign The republican con-
tention. voiced by Mr.. Lodge, is thai
there is plenty to talk about in what
pertains to the conduct of the state
Government and that the tariff issue
has been raised to befog the situation
It is expected that the national ad-
ministration will lend its influence In
| every way it can to defeat the election
of whitney because of the persona
ennity between the latter and Presi'
dent Roosevelt and the knowledge tina
whitney's victory in year preceding
presidential campaign would be uset
throughout the country as an alleged
repudiation of the Roosevelt admins
tration.
