HAVE ALREADY POOLED
OVER 800 CARS Of APPLES
Fruit Growers Association Will This Year Adopt New
Methods in Disposng of Apple Crop of Members
President Hocomb States That Already Satisfactory
Bids Have Been Received on Number of Varieties

Already we have between 500 and
600 carloads of apples pooled with
the association this year." said Presi-
dent Holcomb, of the Wenatchee Val
ley Fruit Growers association.
Our selling methods are going to be
little different than those of last
year. While we have an apple pool
yet We are not advertising that the
bids will be opened on a certain day
and the varieties sold to the highest
bidders. This year we are going to
sell by variety and will keep on adj
vertising until we get bids that are
satisfactory. We reserve the right to
reject any and all bids. Yesterday
We were in receipt of bid from a
we'll known apple house that seemed
satisfactory to us on one or two va
rieties, but we are going to keep on
until We get prices that seem right
to us on all varieties. AS l have
stated before, / see no reason this
year why prices should not be as high
as last year. l am aware of the fact
that some of the big apple houses
were hit pretty hard last year and
lost money, but conditions are differ
ent this year. The government report
and all other private reports give
the apple yield of the United States
as a great deal below that of last
year.
II am satisfied that Delicious
should go at IS, Winesaps s2.25,
Spitzenbergs $3.50, Stayman Wine
saps 81, Arkansas Blaks 50, Jona-
thans $175, Rome Beauties $1.75.
LAS the picking and packing sea-
son approaches there is every evil
dence that the prophecies made in
the spring of an enormous yield are
going to be more than realized. Al
ready there is a better feeling to-
wards the work of the Fruit Grow
ers' association. We had good sue
cess in marketing our peaches, and
every day there are growers who are
pooling their apples with us. After
a while our growers will begin to
realize that cooperation in the ham
ding of fruit, and the establishing
of agencies in the big markets of the
east, is the salvation of the fruit
growing industry in this valley"

visions were bitterly opposed by the reactionists,
who are claiming credit for their passage. There
are copies of the Congressional Record in Wenat-

efforts were directed towards supporting the ad

GREAT NORTHERN.
HOTEL TENANT:
J. w. Ginger of the Roose-
welt Hotel Secures
Lease.

The Great Northern hotel has been
leased to ]. w. Ginger, at present
proprietor of the Roosevelt hotel. 1t
is his intention to abandon the latter
and devote his entire attention TO
the new enterprise. The lease with
the Ellis-Forde company for the
Great Northern building was signed
this morning, and Mr.. Ginger will
take possession just as soon as the
present occupants are able to vacate.
The formal opening may take place
before September 10. The name
Great Northern will be retained.
Mr.. Ginger stated this morning to
reporter of the Daily World that
he will place new furniture through
out the hotel, making it modern and
up to date in every respect. But the
prices are to be popular, 81 per day
for transients, operated On the Amer
lean plan.
The Roosevelt has become one of
the most popular boarding places in
the city. The cooking and service
are family style and it has become
so well spoken of that the present
dining room is no longer large enough
to accommodate the guests. At the
noon and evening meals many people
are compelled to wait for those seat
ed to finish their meals in order to
secure vacant places. Meal tickets
at a reduced price enable the holder
to get quite reduction without be-
ing present at every meal.

Holiday Monday.

Next Monday being Labor day and
a legal holiday the employees at the
court house will have vacation. The
banks will be closed but the stores
will probably be doing business with
out interruption. Union labor is not
much in evidence in this city. For
that reason Labor day does not carry
so much significance as in many other
localities.

Judge Miles PoindeXter, republican,
candidate for the United States SEN
ate, addressed two enthusiastic meet
ings yesterday evening. The first adj
dress was made at Cashmere at
O'Clock to a crowded house, the hall
at that place being we'll filled early
in the evening. After filling this en-
gagement Mr.. Poindexter was whirled
into Wenatchee in an automobile, and
arrived here at S:35, where he gave
another address to a crowded house
at the Wenatchee theatre. The meet
ing at Cashmere began promptly at
Z O'Clock. The meeting was presided
over by Judge James H. Chase. 1t
was highly evident that the audience
at that place was with Poindexter
from the beginning. In fact there are
very few in Cashmere but who be-
lieve in the progressive policies, those
policies supported by such men as
Roosevelt, Cummins, Bristow, Muir
dock. Poindexter and La Toilette.
The Meeting at Wenatchee.
The meeting at Wenatchee was
presided over by Attorney R. S. Lud-
ington. The. High school >oration
with which Earl MARI won the honors
of the state at Pullman was given.
Mr.. MARI used for his subject 1.-The
Insurgent Movement. Following
this T. H. Atkinson, candidate for the
legislature, made one of those
speeches for which he has such a rep
utation. Mr.. Atkinson is one of the
best speakers in the state of Wash
ington, and it is doubtful if there is
another man in the four counties
comprising North Central Washing
ton who surpasses him.
Judge Poindextef Speaks.
Judge Poindexter was introduced
bv Chairman Ludington and said in
part:
Every standpat, reactionary news
paper in the state has repeatedly
stated that voted against every So
called administration measure. The
postal savings bank bill. the railroad
hill. the administration conservation
measures. the tariff commission, the
appropriation asked by the president
under the maximum and minimum
provisions of the tariff law, the APP
'palachian forest reserve bill, were ali
essentially republican and admins
tration measures. l voted for ana
worked for all of them, as did all
progressive republicans in congress.
Manv of them were bitterly opposed
by the reactionaries, who are claim
ing credit for their passage. Mr..
Fordney, of Michigan, who has MADE
some speeches in this campaign, oc-
cupied the floor of congress for day
opposing any appropriation for the
tariff commission. MeSsrs. Mann ana
Keifer voted against the tariff Dill.
Mr.. Southwick, of New York, voted
in a republican caucus against the
postal savings bank bill. Senator
Hale. of Maine, and Senator Aldrich.
Of Rhode Island, and Speaker Cannon
and reactionary republicans generally
onposed the Beveridge tariff commits
sion bill.
Railroad Bill.
when the progressive republicans
had deposed the speaker from the
rules committee, enlarged the COM
mittee and provided for selection
nv the house and thus gained some
parliamentary freedom, the railroad
bill came up for consideration. 1t
had been framed by corporation at
torney upon consultation with rail-
road presidents, and in Its original
form was a bold reactionary measure
in the interest of the railroad. 1t re-

on Waaddah Island at
Midnight.

Seattle, Sept. 2.-The Alaska-Pa-
cific Steamship company's steel
steamship, Watson, which left Seat
tie for San Francisco yesterday with
go passengers. went on reef at
Waaddah island, just east of Cape
Flattery, in dense fog, at midnight.

ously damaged and none of her pas
sengers were injured. The passen-
gers were taken to a house on the
beach and early today embarked on
the steamship buchanan for Seattle.
They will arrive here this afternoon.
The Watson is not making water
and the crew is on board the vessel.

the Watson is lightered she will be
taken off the reef without serious
trouble.
Located in the Strait of Juan de
Fuca, seven miles from Tatoosh is
land and Cape Flattery, Waaddah is
land is considered by seafaring men
as a point filled with danger for any
vessel that might strike its shores.
Help Close at Hand.
Instant aid was available last
night from the revenue cutter tug
Snohomish and the Waaddah island
life-saving crew. The SnOhomish
maintains a station anchorage in
Neah bay, less than mile distant
from Waaddah island. The life-sav-
ing crew, equipped iwth modern ap-
paratus, was Immediately at hand.
