THE CANNED FRUIT TRADE.
The Cutting Packing Company's circular says:
There is every prospect Of large crop Of fine quail
ity all over the state, excepting aprcOts in some
localities that affected by early frosts, as pre-
viousy stated It is probable, however that the
damage will not be as heavy as expected, several
localities that reported heavily injured show
ing up quite display of fruit, although nothing
like what would ordinarily have grown. Alto
gether, we feel that the crop, generally OF aprcots
viii be fully three-quarters OF an average crop.
There is little trade OF consequence either domes-
tic or export. Some territorial orders have come in
during the past week, also orders Tor few cars
for Eastern distributing points but these have all
been mixed cars and at the lowest prices ever
known, buyers shopping all round before settling
upon the brand, and understand heavy conces-
siOns were made TO meet their views.
Several parcels for export have gone forward
during the month, but at reduced prices against
those ruling Tor last fail shipments. We doubt If
there is heavy carTy-over OF any particular
ETY., except apricots; pears and plums are notably
scarce; peaches and cherries in good supply;
grapes are scarce, as also small fruits We learn
OF no bona-fide prices tor futures being made and
doubt if there VIII be before June. Altogether the
prospects appear favor the buyer, either for spot
goods futures, and unless there is radical
change in the crop prices are likely TO rule quite as
low in 1894,

Let all lovers Of temperance attend
this meeting and lend their moral sup
port to this movement. Attention is
called to the fact that under new law
Just enacted by the legislature
incorporated villages are now author
lied 10 prohibit saloons, no matter
whether the counties in which they are
situated have adopted local option or
not. The clause reads: the council
may, 10y an ordinance, suppress saloons
for the sale of spurious and intoxicat-
ing liquor in said village Attorney
General Maynard has decided that the
clause means exactly what it says. He
says: There can be no question in
my opinion, but what under the section
that have considered, the council Of
any village Of this state Incorporated
under the law referred to, can suppress
the liquor traffic in said village, by sup
pressing the saloons in which the
liquors are sold; and the easiest way to
do this is to refuse to approve of the
bonds offered by the man who would
engage in the business" The question
for the citizens Of Alma to consider is
whether they want to get rid of the
four saloons in this village, The coun.
Gil will doubtless act according to the
expressed wish of the citizens. Let all
attend the mass meeting on Sunday
night and declare themselves.

The story of the diplomatic maneuv-
ers between England and France for
the restoration of Napoleon's remains
to France and of their removal from
st. Helena to Paris, in 1910, and their
burial, with imposing ceremonies, in
the Hotel des Invalides-in some
respects the most curious and dramatic
episode in all the Napoleon history
will be told by Miss Ida M. Tarbell in
McClure's Magazine for May. The
paper will be illustrated with a remark
able series of contemporary engravings,
portraying the funeral progress from
the reception of the remains on board
the French ship at st. Helena to the
final scene at the Hotel des Invalides.
