SAN FRANCISCO. Oct. 1S.-The increase
of fruit growing as a source Of revenue
on the Pacific slope is very rapid The
public generally is accustomed 10 look
upon California as the center of the fruit
business. and hitherto Oregon and Wash
ington have not been associated, to any
extent, with the source of supply for the
eastern fruit markets
But experiments in these latter states
on a small scale have demonstrated an
aGaptability to fruits of various kinds,
rot inferior TO CALIFORNIA; Peaches
and apples have been found 10 be a
source of Gnfailing profit in Oregon. and
as for prunes, expert judges pronounce
that both Oregon and Washington excel
Italy and France IN the production Of
fine. merchantable prunes. Dne orchard
near Portland this year yielded an
average of LOO TO the acre in peaches
The owner of the orchard informed me
that he had 10 trees TO the acre. and
that his pick tins season averaged ten
boxes 10 the tree. and sold in the home
market at 81 box His trees are only
five years old. and have not reached
their best condition. yet for three success
sive seasons they have yielded full

In the vicinity Of Ashland. Ore, and
all through the Rogue river valley pears,

NEW YORK. Oct. 23.-I wish here to
say a few words OF a woman who, al
though one of the pioneers Of the WON
An suffrage movement, Is still in the
fullness of her powers and ability. Ma
tilda Joslyn Gage was a brown haired
woman, the youngest Of all the speakers,
at a convention in the early ffties
When first met her in 1870 her sbun-
dant locks were almost white. but she
still had and has today youthful, alert
figure
She is the thinker and historian Of our
cause, all her writings osing character
lied by profound scholarship and deep
thought
Her father. Dr. Joslyn, was widely
known in central New York as a capa-
Die physician aud enthusiastic reformer.
From him she received every advantage
Of education. She early married Henry
D. Gage, a successful merchant, and has
had her home for many years IN Psyette-
vile, near Syracuse She has raised q
family Of children. but has found tine
always to pursue her studies and to aid
the cause OF woman suffrage
A deep seated. almost fierce. love Of
freedom Is one Of her characteristics
No wonder she pasSonzteiy espoused the
cause Of the enfrznchisenent OF her sex

peaches are found 10 POSSESS a better
favor than California peaches, and sre
fully equal to the Delaware product,
while so far the orchards have been ex-
empt from the diseases which tend 20
make the crop uncertain in the east. As
result thousands of acres are being
planted 20 fruit trees, and canneries and
drying houses make il possible TO utilize
the crop.
Clark county, Ore, has at present l 900
acres in prunes. and the annual increase
is notable. The crop this season yielded
from 500 70 $500 per acre. and the or
chards have never failed to produce an
abundant yield The larger the crop of
prunes the greater the price. This is
due TO the fact that Chicago jobbers are
ready 10 handle the Oregon prune when
the supply is sufficient to justify them in
making an effort to place il upon the
market. As soon as these jobbe-s lose

TO the cause OF tariff reform. It is bis
ambition, his dream, to see the nation
relieved OF what he conceives TO be the
burdens of false system. There are
three other men in this congress rs well
informed as he on the philosophy and
the details OF the revenue reform cult:
Mr.. Carlisle. Mr.. Wilson Of West Vir-
ginis, and Mr.. breckenridge Of ArkAD-
sas. But none Of these displays the en-
thusias1n nor the depth Of feeling which
are Characteristic Of the great Texan
When tariff reform is up Mr.. Mills is as
happy as the parent Of q boy who has
won first honcrs at college; when tariff
reform is down he gloomily but cour-
ageously takes refuge in his faith in its
ultimate triumph. No man in this coun-
try has done more than he to keep tho
followers Of this principle strong and
faithful.
If, as the wise men say, the result Of
the recent elections was q victory for
that principle which Mr.. Mills has 20
long and so valiantly contended. surely
his reward should DO the speakership
But it may not be %. Some of tbs
members of his party say Mr.. Mills Is
too radical TO be speaker. Others say
he has too hasty q temper. But whether
speaker or leader on the floor, Mills Is
sure to be one Of the great oommoners
Of the next congress as he Is one OF the
most admirable men in public life.
Mills is comparatively poor man. He
has his salary "a congressman. a farm in
Texas. and in Washington lives in one
half of a rented house, the other half be-
ing occupied by Judge Payson, OF I'LL

THE BLYTHE CASE.

The name of Blythe was consid-
cred rare some years ago, but as
soon as the millionaire, Thomas
Blythe, died without leaving q
will, they became as thick as can
didates for Governor, and the en-
tire country, from La Met to vi :
lage, as well as the big cities, res
directed a representative heir
ithe only genuine Blythe living),
and the new relative was immedi-
ately ushered off to San Francisco
to claim the largest portion OF the
estate, AMI worry the life out OF
the legitimate heir, Florence
Blythe.
The decision of Judge Coffey
leaves the vast accumulation Of
wealth in the hands of Florence,
and unless some of the obstinate
imposters continue to fight the
case, she will be one OF the rich
est girls in America
1t is hardly probable that such
a remarkable case, and one in
volving 50 much capital will be
dropped on the first decision.
IL may be carried into the SUI
preme Court, but saould this hap
pen it will be a waste OF time and
money, for a reversal of Judge
Coffeys rulings on IL case OF thlo
magnitude is almost unthinkabIe,
but the chances are that there
will be some to take the unprom-
ising chances OF an appeal. 1t
will be a public misfortune i that
shall be the case. The Blythe
block in San Francisco has been
tied up for years. 1t occupies the
choicest location i'm the city. Mag
niiicent buildings are going up all
around it, while it remains, with
its collection Of antique shanties,
an eyesore and disgrace to the
