Spirit Was Her Friend.
Ghosts don't walk in broad daylight,
and vet when a woman finds herself
suddenly confronted by the friend she
has mourned as dead she is apt to
experience creepy sensation that
isn't down in the dictionary.
In case like this no amount of
presence of mind or self-possession
can ward off the mingled feelings
OF establishment, fear. JOY and
curiosity that viii render woman
temporarily tongue-tied. 1t is only

OF greeting, after again feeling that

They Never Check TO bearer,

1t is figured out that at least SIS ,O00, 600
in checks, bonds, stocks, and other good
and bad paper is lost in Wall street and
it's environments every year. But it's
disappearance doesn't mean that the
brokers and owners lose cent. Brok-
ers and other spectators never make a
check out "to bearer" and it would take
a mighty clever forger to slip through
an Endorsement, as the Wall street bank
folk know all the twists and turns and
marks in the signatures that are con-
sidered gilt-edged there. Certificates
of shares and the like are all numbered,
and nobody could sell a share unless he
was known to those to whom he offered
it, and it was properly transferred and
Endorsed on the back AS soon as a
piece of negotiable paper OF any kind is
lost all the tickers and financial agents
notify all the bankers, brokers and spec
ulators who control tapes. These keep
a record of all such, and if they are
never found the man who lost them
doesn't worry in the least. It's a great
system and saves a heap of mental
agony. Lots of money is lost in Wall
street. however, but as you know how.
there's no need to enter into details.

DURANGO, Col, November IA
David Day, Indian agent, has tele-

Canon. The Utes are greatly enraged,
and he fears for the safety of the set

WASHINGTON, November 13.-Com-

! Good day"
Good afternoon the lawyer re-
| sponded, and was again alone.
When by himself an expression
which it would be difficult to describe
stole over his countenance as he NUT
tered:
"Of 'frigid temperament and in
sensible to feminine charms, am l?
Having my reason therefor, other men
would be So"
AS the words fell from his lips his
head dropped the muscles Of his face
twitched convulsively, his hands clutch
ed the arms of the chair in which he
sat Then, rising and pacing to and
fro, he exclaimed in a sad tone:
q am not to blame!"

side sat Dr. Ashton.
II am afraid that he will not get
here in season" the invalid said, in a
scarcely audible tone.

encouragingly. 81 am expecting him
every moment"
Almost simultaneously with the ut
terance of these words Lawyer Seward
was conducted into the room.
Here he is" observed the physician,
and then, turning to the lawyer, he CON
tinued: MY patient, Mr.. Walter
Burns, wished me to send for some one
to draw up his will, and I summoned |
you here"
Seating himself near the bed, Mr..
Seward quietly remarked:

Exhausted by the effort required to
say this much, he paused and the doc
tor administered a stimulant. Soon
after he resumed:

For obvious reasons THE ISLANDER
refrains this week from extended edi-
torial comment upon the Straub case,
now before the court. We believe in
fair, impartial and speedy trials in all
criminal cases, and such being assured
the law should be permitted to take
its course, and especial care should be
exercised by the press and the public
generally to avoid unduly prejudiceing'
one way or another, the minds of men
who may, perchance, be called to serve
the state asjurOrs. 1t is not a pleas
ant duty at best to sit in Judgment up
on case involving the life of human
being, and especially under our jury
system, which is by no means perfect,
it is of the tmost,importance to society
that jurors shall be men of integrity
and Intelligence, who will not be sway
ed by prejudice, who have high ideals
of justice and the Determination to
judge strictly according to the law and
the evidence.

The Official Paper Of San Juan County
THURSDAY, OCTOBER lord, 1925.
THE MARKET QUESTION.

As one means of assisting farmers
and fruit growers to sell their produce
in the Sound markets at reasonable
prices, and of encouraging consumers
to buy home grown products i'll prefer
ence to those imported from California
and the middle west, the Post-lntelll-
gencer is advocating the establishment
of "a free weekly market, Oh given
day, so that buyers and sellers may
know when and where to meet" The
suggestion is good one and i'll support
of it the Post-IntelIigencer, among
other things, says:
at is estimated that from 100000 to
S3OO0,OO0 is annually sent out Of the west
ern part of this state for vegetables, chick
ems and dairy produce. Yet within
radius of 100 miles we can procure the
finest qualities of most Ofthe articles now
imported. The chief difficulty has been
the absence of q means by which pro-
Queer and consumer could be brought to-
gether. Many commission merchants
they have to supply their customers regu-
larly and promptly. Farmers come into
town in an unorganized and irregular
way, and hawk their vegetables from
place to place. The price cannot be es-
tablished, rs they are as likely to come
into town when there is glut Us search
ty: and commission merchants cannot
depend upon a regulated and unfailing
supply. Wherever markets have been
established and conducted on sound prin-
ciples and with good management they
have been a success. We do not expect
that consumers will be able to buy direct
ly of the producers to any great extent.
What we aim at is to bring the farmers
and the wholesale buyers together on
such terms that each can make profit,
and the whole value he kept in this state
instead of being sent away"
In city like Seattle, however, the
market should be established on q
somewhat broader scale than that sug-
gested by the Post-Intelligencer. The
farmers of the BEST agricultural coun-
ties on the Sound-San Juan and
Island particularly, cannot drive to
market with their produce, and within
driving distance Of Seattle the produc-
ton is not such that the consumers or
the commission merchants there can
depend upon a'regulated and unfailing
supplyn from that source alone. Some
means must be devised whereby the
produce from the counties from which
there is water transportion only will
not be "swallowed up" by excessive
freight and wharf charges and COM
missions, and there must be some sort
of guarantee to producers that what
they send to the market will be honest
ly inspected and honestly sold, before
confidence in Il general market project
can be established. Agitation of the
subject now is timely, and THE ISLAND
Err hopes that some gooa plan "ill Ue
evolved and put into successful prac-
tice. There surely ought to be some
way to save to the farmers of the state
the tens of thousands of dollars now
annually sent out Of the state for ma
tive products, grown here in abund-
ance and of superior quality.
