BOOM PINCHOT

Ex-Chief of the Forestry Depart

of New York Candidates.

NEW YORK n. Y, July %
Clifford Pinchot took his place today
upon the list of possible candidates
for the republican nomination for
governor of New York and Colonel
Roosevelt was asked to support his
candidacy. While Roosevelt would
not say anything resembling an
outsp0ken declaration in favor of any
candidate. it is believed he will not
look unkindly upon the boom. Dr.
Samuel MCCune Lindsay OF Columbia
University is the man who launched
the new boom. He had q long talk
with Roosevelt today and left with the
air of a man we'll pleased. Lindsay
is a close friend to both Roosevelt
and Pinchot.
Worked Quietly.
In common with other friends. he
has been working quietly on the Pin
chOt boom for some time and it was

COMMERCIAL CLUB
CHANGES SHOW SPACE
Yakima Boosters Will be on Main
Floor at Chicago Exposition
Instead of in Gallery.

Lack of quorum did not prevent
the governing board OF the CONNER
cial club from deciding last evening
to accpet a change of location from
the upper gallery to the one on the
main aisle on the main floor in the
Coliseum in Chicago where the United
States Land and Irrigation exposition
will be held this fan. The PROPOSE
ton was so obsiously advantageous
that it was unanimously agreed to.
I'VE had already arranged for two
spaces for ourselves at the exposition
and expected the others would be
rented in the valley" said Sec. II. r.
Acrues. This would have given us
row completely across one end Of
the building. People don't go up
stairs though unless they have to, so
we believe the change is a good thing.
The expense is no larger.
Fl Fl. Griswold of Chicago. who is
here in the interests of the fair, will
go to work in the valley at once and
expects to have no trouble in selling
the three other spaces adjacent to
ours. We will thus have five big
spaces in a Clump, a very effective
grouping, we believe. Each space will
be twenty feet long by six deep. The
charges being $3.50 a foot, the eX-
pendtures for the valley will amount
to $500. for North Yakima $500. In
case other towns in the valley do not
want space, real estate men here in
town will take them
The exposition will probably draw
crowd of half million, including
many homeseekers. Yakima will be
better represented to them than it
was last year and substantial returns
are expected by the Commercial club.
