VIEWS ON COUNCIL

To delegates to the growers council :
This is the time designated for the an
nual meeting of the Growers council
but in conference with Truman Butler
of Hood River. one of the members of
the Executive Committee. we have de-
cided that in our judgement 1t would
be best to hold our meeting in abey-
ance until Messrs. Bassett, Moomaw
and Kerr, of the Department of Mar
kets, have completed their .investiga-
ton and make a report of what they
believe is the best method Of handling
our apple marketing problem.
As you know, the Growers Council
movement was called into existence
for the sole purpose of endeavoring to
obtain the riehf cooperative working
agreement between the selling agencies
and that there is really very little that
the Growers Council can accomplish
except to look after the general health
and welfare of their industry. While a
grower shipping through one of the
selling agencies would have the right
to consultswith that particular selling
agency as to the methods of marketing
bis product, yet be would not be justi-

GRANGE MINSTRELS
GET Big APPLAUSE

The entertainment staged at Pine
Grove Friday evening under the aus
pices of the grange and the manage
ment of F. l.. Davidson was a success,
and there was not dull moment from
the time the curtain arose until the
last number was finished The first
number was solo by E. E. House,
who has an excellent voice and is ap-
preciated by all who have the good for
tune to hear him. Next came the hit
of the evening. monologue by j NJ.
Taylor, in black face. His "get up"
was so good that scarcely any in the
audience of over two hundred recog-
nized him. He was followed by two
popular young people, VIM. Haskins
and Elizabeth Lacey, who showed ex-
cellent talent in the act they put on.
A Xylophone duet by Mr.. and Mrs.
D. E. Howland was well rendered and
enjoyed by all present. A. j. Graft
and Harold Sexton appeared in black
face and kept the audience in roar.
They we're brought back four times
and we're whole show by themselves
and worth going miles on stormy
evening to hear A solo by Mrs. E. o..
Dutro was excellent and any commun-
ity with such talent as hers is certainly
fortunate. F. L. Davidson appeared
in the costume of a clown. With his
singing, jokes and dancing everyone
forgot they ever had worry or care.
When il comes to entertaining Frank
is on a par with the best professionals.
Mrs. E. 7. Folts and Miss Gladys Clark
played the piano accompaniment and
were largely responsible for the sue
cess of the program.
The last but not least number on the
program was drill and dance by Ave
pickaninnies and the boys certainly
did fine. After the last number the
floor was cleared and for about three
hours dancing was enjoyed by many
present.

 ARE EXPECTED
Tender of designations Will Relieve President from
 Emulating Teddy.

Washington, Nov 16.--In accord. ance with custom in the diplomatic service, American ambassadors and ministers abroad are evuected to TO sign as a sequence to President Will sons reelection and svco oession to : new term of office. Ti-e -11actica which has become general in Ameri can diplomatic service since Presi- dent Roosevelt frankly requested al ambassadors and ministers to resign. will afford President Wilson the necessary opportunity to carry out plans he has projected involving very considerable reorganization of the diplomatic service, So far as the heads are concerned. That considerable number of them will be asked to re. main ill office is a certainty but some do not wish to remain and some have have proved unequal to the require ments of their stations.
 It is believed President Wilson had this situation seriously in mind when he recently remarked to newspaper men:
 Some men grow in office, and oth- CTS swell up."
 It is expected that the general ten der of resignations in the near fu- ture will relieve President Wilson from the necessity of adopting the course taken by President Roosevelt and calling directly for the resigna- tiCns

 Mr. Cabrera met with tho commits sion today for the first time since Tuesday. Before they left their room after a long session, the commission- CTS aerend thoy would say nothing. MT. Cabrera met the newspaper men with the statement that he was de- termined mot to say one word" to the press. A few minutes later the chairman of the American delegation made similar statement. It became known, however, that virtually the en- tire day was spent in argument cal culated to convince Mr. Cabrera of the advisablity of endorsing the plan and make clear to him the danger in which continued opposition migh4 place his government. MT. Cabrera was ready with counter suggestions it is said, which were rejected by the Americans as impossible for them to accent.

Tn the Ancrc region of Franco
 where since Monday the British have
 made notable gains over the Germans
 the fight apparently has lesscned in
 violence greatly, the latest British
 communication reporting only bonn | hardments by the German of their | ncwly-wOn front to the north of the
 stream. An additional six officers and 297 men have been made prisoners by
 the British in this region during the
 last 24 hours.
 To the southeast of Saillisel, where the Germans had occupied a group
 O. houses northeast Of the village. the French HOW have driven them out t. in counter attacks, according to tho French official communication. On the remainder of the front n
 France, especially in the region of Abaincourt and between LeSars and Gueudecourt, there were violent bom-
 bardments of British and French po- sitions by the Germans, while the French hammered the German front in the Souchez and Armenticrres sec tors.
 In the Macedonia theatre, entente troops continue to press the Teutonic allies in the Cerna river region, ac- cording to the Serbian war office, and have seriously broken their line east and west, south of MOnastir, capturing four additional villages east of the river and on the west side driving tho Teuton forces back from several cd ditional positions toward Monastir.
 Berlin admits that in the Cerna r'v CT region. the Bulgarian-German forces have left their old positions and have occupied newly prepared positions. to the eastward.
 The British have taken Karakaska, on the east side of Lake Takinos.

 Denial is made by Berlin of the as- ertion that the Rumanians have cap- ured the town of Bonescio, on the Janube.

age over to Sheriff R. H. Williams, general chairman of the jollification committee.
 The Democratic victory was peo- ple's victory, as we'll as blessing. Had the Republicans won, there is no doubt the old forces of special priv ilege would have ruled, and the legis- lation so beneficial to the worklng, men and the farmers enacted by the Democratic administration would cer- tainly have been nullified. The Re- publicans spent millions, and they did not have to beg for it. The national Democratic committee waged win ming fight on comparatively small sum. The Democrats must pay thelr bills, and Jefferson should do it's part. Twas a glorious celebration last night. but the remainder of the Democratic world will think more of our sincerity if we contribute our pro rata toward wiping out the S300.000 deficit.

WERE WOMEN HOUSEKEEPERS?
NOT MUCH

Last Saturday the following address
from the ladies of Westminster was
presented to Charles James Fox. ESQ.,
on the hustings:
1.-The ladies of Westminster, who are
housekeepers, present their respectful
compliments to Charles Fox, Esq, now
a candidate for their respectable city,
and tender him their sincere services
and votes, provided they are wanted or
thought necessary to secure him his
seat in Parliament.
1.-The ladies would not have rendered
him their free services did they not
think themselves entitled to give their
votes, as the word housekeeper is the
term of qualification. And they are not
informed that the word male house
keeper is mentioned; and, if that is the

A Porto Rican gentleman is now in
Washington, explaining the "humilia-
ton" which Porto Ricans feel from dis
reimbursement, and urging the amend
ment of the Porto Rico bill now before
Congress.
But the time of Congress is very pre-
cious-too precious, the Ants are al
ways telling women. to be wasted on
these little matters Of enfranchise-
ment.
Therefore, we suggest that the Ants
show their patriotism by Immediately
adjourning to Porto Rico and preach
ing contentment with political inferior
ity. the powers of the indirect influence
and the degrading dangers Of the poll
ing booth.

keepers, they have not right to give
their votes for so able a member.
