MUCH FRUIT STILL
REMAINS IN VALLEY

Although some dozen of vacant busi-
ness houses and the easements of
stores have been filled with the over
flow from the storage plants Of local
shipping agencies, the total capacity
of which Is around 600, 900 boxes, scores
of loaded apple wagons are continuing
daily to bring in fruit from the val
ley. Sam q. Campbell, chief inspector
for the Association. stated Saturday
that he thought there were at least
200, 600 boxes of apples in inadequate
warehouses and sheds remaining un-
protected.
eff the weather remains moderate
for another week, said Mr.. Campbell.
al think we will be able to get all of
this fruit under cover and will be well
protected against the elements. We
are using all means now to assist those
growers whose apples have no protec-
tion, in getting their fruit in.
Shippers whose storage plants are
located on the line of the Mount Hood
Railroad Co. are making urgent ap.
peals for cars. While this fruit is well
protected, in case of heavy SHOWS

STRADDLE SUFFRAGE QUESTION

(BY JAMES E. MacBRIDE.)

st. Louis, Mo, June 12.-It is not an
altogether contented and happy De-
mocracy gathering here for the ma
tional convention which meets on
Wednesday to renominate Woodrow
Wilson In fact there are several ele-
ments of unhappiness and discomfort.
There are some delegates who want
to make fight for plank in the
platform declaring for an embargo on
the expectation of munitions of war.
This convention promises to be one
of the biggest in the history of the
party The officeholders and office
seekers, the appointed and disappoint-
ed will all be here. For example.
Tammany is bringing a delegation of
500. A big store room opposite the
jefferson hotel has been decorated
and formally opened by Charley
White as New York state headquar-
ters. Tammany will be the most con-
| spicuous delegation in the convention
though the organization is the most
linconspicuous on the federal pay roll.
1t may be as some delegates suggest
| that Charles F. Murphy feels his obs
| legation to Democracy and the Wilson
administration can be fully liqdidated
| by the cheers of 500 Tammany braves
and that it will not be necessary tc
raise a big campaign fund and go into
a vigorous fight this fall to carry New
York for Wilson
If there be a fight in this conven-
ton and everyone admits it is incon-
ceivable that one thousand Democrats
can get together without a fight, il
will come in the committee on reso
| lutions.

Colonel for First Time Refuses
Newspaper Men.
Delegations Bearing G. o. p
Olive Branch Scheduled.

Oyster Bay, June 12--Sagamore
Hill is politically off the map today
by announcement from Colonel Roose-
velt
For the first time since he entered
politics Colonel Roosevelt refused to
meet newspaper men Officially to-
day They were welcome as friends.
But before the day is over Sycamore
Hill is going to be very decidedly back
on the political map. Two pilgrimages
to Sycamore Hill today may result in
an important political action by T. R.
One party of Progressives planned
to visit T. r. in an attempt to prevail
upon him to accept the nomination
offered him either by cajolery OF by
threats of a party bolt to the Demo-
Gratis.
Another party of pilgrims, including
George w. Wickersham, George B.
Cortelyou and William Loeb, Jr., will
advance on Sycamore Hill waving the
olive branch and talk peace in an ef-
fort to win the colonel over to the sup
port of Hughes.
Although he is still full of the old
time vigor, there are lines in T. RS
face today, evidence that the G. o. P.
dealt him a severe blow on Saturday.

newspaper correspondent reporting
the Democratic convention who has
announced his support of Mr.. Hughes.
today expressed belief that Colonel
Roosevelt also will take an active part
in Hughes's campaign Mr.. Allen said
that former Representative Victor
Murdock, chairman of the Progressive
national committee, was most promi-
nently suggested to succeed Colonel
Roosevelt as the Progressive's stand
ard bearer if Colonel Roosevelt finally
refused the nomination.
'I think the hour is too important
for any man to worry about the name
of the party he is going to support -
said Mr. Allen. IF Colonel Roosevelt
accepts the splendid statement of Mr..
Hughes as meeting the conditions
which he laid down to the Progressive
convention, a majority of the Progress
sives will support Hughes
Why Allen Quits Progressives.
''As far as 1 am personally con-
cerned, if Colonel Roosevelt declines
port Mr.. Hughes rather than vote for
some lesser leader of the Progressive
party. not that I have lost in any way
my enthusiasm for the principles
which we have sought to introduce,
but because I think the fight is going
to be clean1y between Wilson and
Hughes, and in that case I prefer
Hughes"
Although declining to predict posi-
lively that Colonel Roosevelt will sup

st. Louis. June 12.-In strongest
contrast to the attitude of the Kansas
delegation to the Chicago Republican
convention a week ago. delegates to

are here today to ratify rather than
harmonic. To be sure there are diff
ferences in the Bourbon party in Kan
sas. But the men who have journeyed
to st. Louis have come to sing the
praise of Wilson and to point with
pride rather than promise and con-
denim.

view with the United Press, prior to
his departure for New York to con-
fer with Colonel Roosevelt.
johnson reiterated today that he
would not accept the presidential
nomination on the Bull! Moose ticket.
He indicated his belief that the Pro-
gressive party was a mighty sick or
ganization but had a chance of re-
viving.

Roosevelt was prompted by the high
