GENERALIZATION OF FRUITS.
The Method a. Explained to CALIFORNIA;
Board OF horticulture.

Tho process Of preserving fruits in q
crysfailized or glazed form is attracting
considerable attention at the present time.
This process, though comparatively new
in California. has been extensively opc-
rated in Southwestern France for years,
the United States having been heavy I'M
porters, paying fancy prices for tho pro-
duet. The process is quito simple. The
theory is 10 extract tho juice from tho
fruit and replace it with sugar syrup.
which. upon hardening, preserves tho
fruit from decay and at tho same limo
retains the natural shape OF the fruit.
All kinds Of fruit crc capable Of being
presc7ved under this process. Though
The method is very simple, there is Ger
tein skill required that is only acquired
by practice. The several successive steps
in the process are about rs itd0ws: nrst,
the same care in selecting and grading
the fruit should be taken as for canning;
that il. the fruit should be all of one size
ard as near the same rineness as possible.
The exact degree OF ripeness is Of great
importance. which is at that stage when
fruit is best for canning. Peaches, pears.
etc, are pared and cut in halves as for
canning plums, cherries, etc, are pitted.
The frat having thus been carefully
prepared IL then put in a basket or bucket
with G perforated bottom and immersed
in boiling water. The object Of this is to
dilute and extract the juice Of the fruit.
the length OF time the fruit is immersed
Is the most important part Of ;ho process.
II Jeff 700 long !: is overlooked and be
comes soft: X not immersed long enough,
tie juice is not sufficiently extracted,
which prevents q perfect absorption Of
the sugar. After the fruit hes been Inks

is the sirup. which is made OF white
sugar and water The softer the fruit,
the heavier the siUp required CTdinar-
lily, about '0degs B2iiing saccharometcr

The fruit is then placed in csrta2n pans
and covered with strip, where il is ieft TO
remain about 4 week The sugar enters
the fruit and displacos what juice re-
NAMED after the scalding process.
The fruit now requires careful w9tch-
ing, rs fermentation viii soon tax, place,
and when this has reached % certain stage
the fruit and strip is heated to a boiling
degree, which checks the fermentation.
This heating process should be repeated
rs often rs necessary for about six weeks.
The fruit is then taken ont OF the sirup
and washed i'm clean wator, and is then
ready TO he either glazed or crystal!ized,
rs the operator may wish. II glazed, the
fruit is dipped in thick sugar sirup and
lefc to harden quickly In open mir. If il

of sirup, but ia made TO cool and haricn

covers the fruit TO crystallizc. The fruit
is now ready for boxing and shipping.

THE STRATEGY OF POLITICS.

Ever since the splendid stroke OF piracy
performed IN 1915 when the Republicans
Organized and carried out conspiracy
to carry the Presidential election against
the majority. there has been growing
decentralization in politics and the most
adventurous spirits have called for
shrewd and sharp deals rather than foI
the high patriotism and craftsmanship
that once prevailed.
Blu, supposlng that the Democrats have
the cause of popular rights and Tree
government on their side, when
cannot be denied, then they must
make allowance for the modern
tactics of the great game, and if the Jay
Goulds and Blaines and IIubbells and
Steve Elkins and such are still our
enemies and the dynamite Of gold must
be used, why then let the warfare be
waged in that way 10 some extent at
least.
The Radicals buy. Bat the Democrats
only want 70 educate and we need a great
amount Of funds and TO distribute the
missionary service all over The country
and contradict the heather lies that have
imbued the whole land.
The missionary in China is the servant
OF the Lord, but be cannot serve the holy
cause unless his rations and expenses are
paid.
The patriotism of the Democratic
party at present demands that we should
use all The means in our power, FOR other
wise we will be held by the enemy
For instance;
II President Cleyelaud's recent mes
sage on the Canadian dispute is surren-
der Of bis attitude and a change to tAe
attitude Of The Republican Senate, as is
charged ty Eamunds and others, why
dom the Senate agree with him at once
since he mas been converted to and agrees
with the Senate, and proml tly pass the
law he wants?
And again if The reduction Of only :
per cent. Of war taxes means, according
to the Republicans nothing but free
trade" the point is to eniighten the peo-
pie on the absnrdity of the charge.
As 20 the Fisheries Treaty the Repubii-
cans are flooding the country with their
version Of the story. The Democratic
party has gained the advantage Of posi-
ton by bold strategic movement. 1t is
not TICK of politics, hut merely a
move to confound the enemies OF ourfree
Institutions.
In the South we have the opportunity
to MAKE another strs,egic movement, and
that is TO accept Mr. Wilson's issue On
the bloody shirt" campaign. II the
Northern Democracy viii take care to
win New York. New Jersey and Connec-
ticut we viii arrange the solid South.

A RAILROAD CASE DECIDED.
The Central Enjoined from Foreclosir
q Mortgage on the s., G. & N. A. Roa

The Central Enjoined from Foreclosing
a Mortgage on the s., G. & N. A. Road.
ATLANTA, GA, Nov. Judge Marshall
J. Clarke, in chambers, rendered an I'M
portant decision to-day upon a case which
has been occupying his attention here for
several days. Sometime ago President
Alexander, of the Central railroad, filed
bill for the purpose of foreclosing a mort
gage held by the Central railroad upon the
Savannah, Griffin and North Alabama
railroad, of which corporation the Central
owns a large block of stock and
a large number of bonds. The reason
assigned by the Central for foreclosing its
mortgage was that it was the opinion OF
the management of the Central that it was
bad policy for that company to own stock
in the railroad; also that the charter OF
the company forbids its doing so. As
soon as this bill was filed several
stockholders of the Savannah, Grit.
fin and North Alabama road
filled a bill of injunction, to prevent the
foreclosure of the mortgage, and asked
for the appointment of receiver. This
afternoon Judge Clarke rendered decision
in the case, in which he granted the inJunc-
ton, and stated that he would appoint re-
ceiver as soon as he could confer with the
parties at interest, and select suitable per-
sor to appoint.

POLICE AGAINST PARNELL.
They Testify that League Branches
Had Bad Influence

LONDON, Nov. AT the sitting of. the
Parnell commission to-day the police wit
nesses gave testimony regarding outrages
in Ireland, which they believed wer due
the instigation of the league.
Sir Henry James, counsel for the Times,
said that 1t was difficult to compel witnesses
to comply with subpenas, and that he
would be forced to complete the proof of
certain outrages later. Several witnesses
testified that land league hare hunts were
organized over lands belonging to persons
who offended the league for the purpose of
damaging their crops. The police testimony
from Loughrea, Athenry ands other
places in Ireland showed that prior TO the
founding of league branches In those dis
tricts the districts were comparatively
free from crime, and that after the league
meetings there was much turbulence, often
eliminating in outrages. 1t was testified
that f1ve murders quickly followed the
founding of the Loughrea branch, includ-
ing the killing of Sergt Litton, who, wit
ness averred, was shot for testifying at the
Parnell trial.
1t is Stated that Sir Charles Russell,
counsel for the Parne'lites, will call a wit
ness to swear that he forged the Times
letteys, and will show by enlarged photo
graphs on magic lantern that III tracing
tho signature the pen was repeatedly

Judge kinnear in his decision in the Par
nell-1tnles case at Edinburgh Yesterday,
allowed proof as to what debt had been

lions existed between the persons arrested

to publication in Scotland, preferIing thas
the whole question of jurisdiction be detert
mined by one interlocutor, after having the
facts before him.
