MR.. BARTON'S SUCCESSOR
Is Already Interesting Politicians and
Private Citizens
The Dayton Choral Society Organized and Will
Produce The creation---Dues Fixed
and Officers Elected

SAN BERNARDINo. Dec. l2.-For the first
time in the history OF the orange industry in
Southern California, the orange harvest
opened with the month of December, and
the orchards of this valley will furnish
most of the oranges which will supply the
holiday market at the east. The crop is
large and the prices promise we'll.
About 100 carloads have thus far been
shipped. Of these about 100 cars have
been billed out from this station by the
Santa Fe, and twenty cars from Cotton by
the Southern Pacific. At all of the ex-
changes and all the packing houses work is
now in full blast, and it seems quite Ger.
tain that from 400 to 500 cars will have
been shipped by December %, not an in
considerable portion of the crop.
Good navels are selling f. o. b. at $3.50
per box and the demand is in excess of the
supply. Whether this price will rule after
New Years is a question In which the
orange men are interested, but with care
full marketing the impression prevails that
there will be no drop in prices.
The market opened last year at $3.50,
but very quickly went down to ". Later
it rallied to 1928 and in rare cases s2.4O
was paid.
The Redlands district alone reports that
about fifty cars have been shipped, and
estimates that 100 cars will 90 out before
Christmas. or almost one.slXth of the total
crop of the district.

DEFEAT or THE CURRENCY BILL.
Members of All Parties in tho House Tell
How II Happened.

WASHINGTON, Jan. l6.-'fhe usual
drearines5 of debate in the House upon
the general appropriation bills, the In
disn bill being under consideration. was
relieved to-day by an unexpected disres-
sion into the cause of the defeat OF the
Carlisle currency and banking bill. 1t
Was preciptated by Mr. Walker CRep,
Mass) who made the statement that the
Republicans were ready and willing to
support a proper measure.
70 this Mr. Warner Dem, y. W re-
sponded that the Republicans were seek
ing an excuse for their action In defeating
the rule for the consideration of the Car
Isle bill in connection with those Demo-
Gratis who had voted with them, and he
said the statements OF the gentleman
from Massachusetts, were a mere pre-
talce.
Mr. Money Dem, Miss.), speaking for
the free silver Democrats. denied respon-
slblllty for the fault of the rule, and
charged it upon the Committee on Rules,
who refused 10 permit an understand
ing 10 be had that vote on the Bland
free silver substitute should be taken.
Mr. Catchirgs Dem. Miss) defended.
with some feeling the action OF the
Committee on Rules, saying il had been
dictated wholly by the instruction of the
Democratic caucus.
Mr. Reed (Rep. Me.) said that the
situation in a nutshell was that the Car
isle bill fell or its own weight. because
everybody recognized that II could never
have received the votes Of u majority Of
the House. The duty that devolved upon
the Democrats was TO give the Govern
ment sufficient revenues 10 meet expendi-
lures, that would restore the credit of
the Government and relieve the general
financial depression.
Mr. Simpson pop, Kans,) raised
laugh by stating that in view OF the re-
luctance of the old parties to assume
the responsibility for the defeat of the
Carlisle bill, he would be proud to take
1t for the Populists. He would also pro-
pose plan for relief, as both the old
parties were backward In that respect

tions; coin the silver seigniorage In the
Treasury and issue Treasury notes.

gression, which then closed.
