Something WIN Drop at Chicago


| II may be the prices for board anu
lodging, but if 1t is not, then Chicago
herself will hear something drop that
will make tremendous racket. Despite
the declaration that prices would not be
raised exorbitantly, despite the official as
surance of General Davis in magazine
article that Chicago had better sense than
20 kill the goose which lays the golden
egg, the cry already goes up that extor-
hon is the rule on all sides. One CORE
pondent deslares that it cost him Is
cents to get cup of tea; another writes
over his own signature that for So day
one can get only the commonest sort of
food and lodging.
This looks as if Chicago has not the
common sense the rest of the country
has hitherto given her credit for. She is
in debt deeply. On the great influx of
visitors to her fair depends her ability to
get out. Thousands of her citizens will
be ruined financially, and the fair guar
antors will be saddled with debt that
will bankrupt some of them if that show
is failure through the greed of board
ing house keepers. Has the prevailing
characteristic of the millions of hogs an
nually slaughtered at Chicago perhaps
somehow entered into the spirit of the
people of that town? Their conduct
looks especially queer alongside the fact
that the railroads are making liberal re
auctions in rates.
The stories that have already gone ont
about the dizzy prices for accommoda-
tons at Chicago will, if uncontradicted,
prevent at least 900, 900 people from visit
ing the fair. They simply cannot and
will not pay the prices quoted as being
extorted from visitors. We are the PEG
pie, but we are not millionaires-we
whose little admission fees and board bills
are to make that fair success. If the
spirit of the favorite Chicago staple gets
in the air to the extent of making the
fair a failure, Chicago will get a name
for herself that will go laundering down
the corridors of time along with that of
ShylocR and the fellow who would not
trust some of our soldiers for beef dur
ing the Revolutionary war. She will be
mathematical from one end of this re
public to the other, and her name will
henceforth have an evil smack in Europe,
till she could even wish the waters of
Lake Michigan were rolling over her IN
quiet bed.

1t was on the deck of a London bound
steamer. and several . passengers were
leaning against the railing talking about
shooting.

once killed two wild ducks on the wing
with one shot. II suppose it was an ac-
cident," he said, "but I'll admit that |
take good deal of credit to myself for
being a clever shot"
That's nothin," remarked a tall
6-footer as he thrust his hands into his
pockets and lazily shifted his position.
"Why, one time out in the sand hills |
got into a fight with one of them air
sorghum lappers. 1t was over gal, of
course. She was in for the winnin man.

lions, aimed. and when the word was
given fired. Isuppose you would hardly
believe it," he added. narrowly ewing
the last speaker, but, gentlemen. we
was both that air good shots that our
bullets met and fell to the ground"
The other members of the group looked
at the tall man silently for a moment or
two. Then one by one they stole back
into the cabin, and the crack sportsman
was left to gaze at the waves rehectively.

The hopelessness of the fight against
homeprule in Ireland is manifest from
the desperate and malignant attacks of
the Conservatives on the Gladstone party,
and especially in their abuse Of the Irish
nation. A British Conservative appar-
emily hates an Irishman quite as much as
he used to hate an American. The home
rule Irishmen have shown much greater
courtesy to their opponents than has
been shown to them. Not one of them
has descended to such depths as Colonel
Saunderson, leader of the Ulster faction,
did when he sneeringly alluded in the
house of commons TO the "squalid Irish
parliament, with a hungry executive
floating in whisky" Hon. Joseph Cham
berlain, who split off from the Liberal
party because of home rule, almost out

The idea Of establishing a state SAM
tary day is making progress in Pennsyl-
vania. A special committee of the state
board of health have reported in favor
of setting apart the first Thursday of each
May as state Sanitary day. They do not
recommend, however, that it be made a
legal holiday, but that its observance be
simply impressed on the people of the
state and its hours be spent in instruct
ing popular gatherings in the way to be
healthy. If this were done and the peo-
pie could be induced to follow of their
own accord such instruction, then the
state of Pennsylvania would be the
healthiest in the Union. No epidemics,
however dangerous, would affect her cit
liens to any great extent.
The methods proposed for teaching
sanitary science to the people on the
given day are described in The Public
Ledger as follows:
The means proposed to accomplish this pur-
pose are that only one session shall be held in
the public schools, and that shall be devoted to
an explanation 10 the pupils OF the meaning
and intent of hygiene; that the board Of health
shall prepare or have prepared popular pam
phlets on hygiene 20 be distributed with the aid
Of the school children; that articles on the
ogress of AIRY science shall be prepared
and submitted for publication in the news
papers; that clergymen shall be requested TO
call attention TO the observance of Sanitary
day; that athletic sports shall be organized in
every community for the afternoon Of Sanitary
day, and that the state board Of health shall
promote the holding of local mass meetings on
the evening of that day, when representatives
of the board of health shall address the people
upon the sanitary needso Of the locality, and the
people shall discuss and decide what sum Of
money the proper authorities should devote to
sanitary work for the ensuing year

WASHINGTON FRUIT

In an editorial under the above cap
ton the Spokane Review says. lhefe
has been in the past much complaint
that this state, which is prominently
adapted to fruit growing, should be
obliged to import great quantities OF
orchard products thereby draining the
country of large sums which should
have remained at home to benefit our
own agriculturalists. Old as Washing
ton is, and as long as portions OF the
state have been settled, her almost
complete isolation from the rest OF the
world for more than a third of cen
tury after settlement began did much
to retard the development of many OF
her resources, and none suffered more
from this cause than did the fruit grow
ing industry. There was for many
years no market in the state ana no
means of reaching an outside market,
and, consequently, few small orchards
and none of any size, were planted.
Since this isolation, however, became
"A thing of the past, her population has
increased so rapidly that in order to
supply the demand for fruit, vast
quantities have been imported from
Oregon and California. This state of
affairs will soon be at an end, though,
for orchardists in both eastern and
western sections of the state have be-
come thoroughly awake to the
possibilities Of the industry and
are exerting every energy to meet
the demands made upon them.
1t has been now demonstrated by
actual and successful experiments that
the variety Of fruit which may be
raised in this state is very great BE-
sides berries Of all kinds, peaches ap-
piles, plums, cherries, grapes, apricots,
pears and prunes flourish in unlimited
quantity and uneXcelled quality. Con-
sdering the length of time that il has
been known that fruit would do well
outside of a few sections Of the eastern
part of the state, the advance Of this
industry, throughout the state at large,
is most encouraging, and gives promise
of fast approaching time when Wash
ington orchardists will not only supply
the home market, but will have an
abundance for export to less favored
sections.
What will undoubtedly prove one Of
The greatest branches of the agricul-
tural industry i'm the Northwest is well
under way, and its effects will become
more and more marked with each sue
ceeding year until the state of Wash
ington rivals California in the output
Of its vineyards and orchards.
1t may not be out of place in this
connection to supplement the editorial
of the Review 10y the statement that
there is no section Of the state better
adapted to this profitable industry than
Orcas and the other islands lying tri-
butary to Fairhaven. 1t is also graft
flying to note that throughout What
com county the farmers are constantly
increasing the extent of their orchards,
50 that the development of the fruit in
dustry of this section may be looked
upon as one Of the important elements
entering into its future prosperity.
