FOREIGN FRUIT

The market for California oranges has
been somewhat depressed of late by large
shipments of fruit from Mediterranean
countries. This foreign fruit has been
scattered through the East and readily
finds purchasers in great numbers and
the California product must wait until
the market is clear.
1t is strange that the Eastern public in
order to save few cents on box of
oranges will purchase the Italian and
Spanish fruits in preference to the Amer
lcan. The Mediterranean fruit-growers
generally are without any Of the Anglo
Saxon spirit of personal cleanliness, and
the oranges which the fastidious New
Yorker is very willing to purchase and
eat are each picked by as dirty pair of
hands as one may see in Il month of
search in America. The consumer peels
his orange, it is true, but he must handle
it good deal in doing So and MANY
people cut the fruit in segments and eat
il with the skin on. 1t cannot be pleas
ant to reflect, while doing that the
last person who handled the fruit had a
deep-rooted aversion to ever washing him
self
Another more serious consideration
which one would think might affect the
consumption OF this imported fruit is the
fact that more or less cholera and other
diseases OF a similar character are always
to be found lurking along the shores of
the Mediterranean, where most OF the
foreign oranges are grown. The unsani-
ta1y condition Of much of that country
and the unheaIthful, uncleauy manner of
life OF the people make the prevalence. of
germ diseases inevitable and the conta-
gon must naturally communicate itself
to the fruit which is handled bv these
people and which is stored, prior to ship
ping. Ill questionable surroundings.
The California orange is grown by
Americans in the healthiest section of the
Union and is handled by cleanly, healthy
people.
If the Fastener wants to eat foreign
oranges, he would do well to wash and
sterilze the fruit.

school year is none too long at best. and

time. Then. too, as the teachers are only
paid for the actual time spent in teaching,

may have TO close the high school in May
and the other schools at the beginning

also rightly so that they wish not to in
crease the Indebtedness of the city and

continue The schools to the end of the
school term? | am sure the parents who
feel interested in their children's educa-
tion will gladly do SO if able. 1t will also
give the teachers a compensation and
perhaps nearly as much as their salary
would he per month. A. BLUM

A Board Of Control.
PHeN1xlFe 7, 1895

SS' ''
 EDITOR REPUBLICAN: Che Herald or the 9th inst. has an artiqIe signed Il. H. G." lauding the good features of the bill introduced in the council and known as council bill No. 7, to create 8 board of control. His main arguments are tits non- partisan feature" Hess expeuse," ''same used in many states" and that 8 board of control so formed would save the territory many thou sands of dollars. Let us look at the provisions of this bill and see what 1t provides for.
 A board of control, composed Of the governor, auditor and one citizen, not more than two of which must belong to any one political party. The citizen to hold for four years, and the governor and auditor to hold during their terms of office, respectively. The governor to be allowed mileage and other necessary travelling expenses incurred In the dls. charge of his duty as such member of the board. The citizen member, who IS to be thus meekly saddled upon an un- suspecting pu bile for four year term, is to receive the munifcent salary Of only $2, 900 per annum, including trav- cling expenses, to be paid quarterly out of the treasury, and the auditor must draw his warrant for the same, (includ- ing clerk hire, etc.
 The auditors salary is to be raised $l .OOO, who is also to be allowed trav- cling exp anses and clerk hire, etc.
 The board is to be provided with an office at the cap al of the territory (no limit is made as to it's expense), and shall be furnished with all necessary furniture and stationery, blanks, blank books, etc., (no limit to this expendl- ture) and nothing said about railroad and transportation passes to be used. Approoriations all made in advance. Here we have it.

 This is a very patent error on the part of those who drew up the board of con trol bill. No doubt there was not that vigilance of territorial interest dis played, as was shown in formulating the provisions setting forth the term salary and perquisites of the citizen member to be appointed.
