NEW YORK. Oct. 2O-Because of

Minnesota, has been preparing a report

all the members of the committee, ana
which will completely exonerate Gro

until the December session.
The Times editorial says the course
OF the administration in regard to sp-

house has been from the first one of in
explicatle shilly -shally. and is certainly
not improved upon by yesterdays exhi-
bition of irresolution. The delay in

more fruit raised by far than can posi-

pare in time for the utilization of the
next crop. The cost will be Uncommon

1t there were factory started here,
even on very small scale at first, it
would steady the market for saleable
qualities Of fresh fruit aud would im-

DISTINCTIONS WITH A DIFF
FERENCE. q.

An evening cotemporary continues
its volunteer. though insignificant, cru
SADIE against the home interests out Of
which its support is indirectly drawn,
by following up its recent "conjectural
invention to the prejudice of our coal
by peck at the agricultural interest of
the country. Its assertion that the
White river potatoes are mostly affected
with rot, and then throwing the whole
leys ss . peculiar attendant upon that
condition of the growth 70 the parti-
cular prejudice Of the King county pro-
duct. would he entitled to pass without
remark, if it were strictly true. Facts.
however, will hardly sustain the posi-
ton. There is better reason to believe
that the condition of the diseased lots
in general is more owing to the mis-
takes and slovenliness in planting. cul-
ture or harvesting, than to the locality
There have been and still are raised
in our King county river bottoms
with due care and pains, as fine
potatoes as can be produced in the
world. For n practical demonstration
Of this position, we take satisfaction in
recommending all who are at all inter-
ested in the subject. to examine q large
lot Of potatoes at Marshall & Knipe's
warehouse. from the field of Mr.. l..
Mcmillan, a White River farmer. sent
down for export on the Alaska, but un-
fortunately arriving too late for ship
ment. We would warrant such pots-
toes for keeping or for excellence in any
regard against the best that were ever
produced IN any country. This may
be saying great deal, but not more
than the facts will warrant. We al
ways take q pleasure in recognizing
merit whenever it comes to our no.
tice. aud according to it the tribute
that is its due. if for no other reason, at
least - an example worthy to be emu
lated by others. If Mr.. Mcmillan will
always send such potatoes to market, he
will have no trouble to find custom
ers nor to get always the very highest
price.
