Prairie country to attend a meeting held
at Denver on Saturday, June LIST, TO take
steps toward the completion of the road

iustment of few matters work on the

eouraging news to the people of Ken
drIck. With the building OF the road
through Big Canyon, the road will be
completed and Camas Prairie people
will have direct communication With a
railroad point, by at least 80 miles

The Fruit CrOD,

The fruit farms down the Snake river
now present busy and pleasing sight,
especially the Bishop and Kelly places
For the past three weeks cherries have
been gathered for the outside markets
and are most plentiful and luscious.
Peaches peach plums, apricots and
blackberres will be gathered about the
28th of this month; pears about the
middle of July; apples LIST of July and
grapes August 1st. Bishop Bros. ex-
pect to start their dryer on the first of
August and will be in the market to buy
all the green prunes on the Snake river
as far as Asotin at the market price,
they also want apples. This is the third
year of their dryer which has a capacity
of $1,000 lbs. and requires a force of 40
hands to operate. Bishop Bros. expect
to put up 100000 lbs. of dry fruit and
t. ship out II to ID thousand boxes of
fresh fruit this season. Mr.. Kelly feels
good over the prospects for fruit. The
trees so far are much better than this
time last year and will continue better.

Fruit Instead OF Wheat.
Baltimore Sun.

The California newspapers have
great deal to say about the substitution
of fruit for wheat as the great crop tf
that state. This change has been going
on steadily for a number of wears, until
now the state, although spIendldlv
adapted to the production of wheat,
both in soil and climate the wheat crop
has greatly diminis ed and California
il no longer one of the great wheat
states. The change has been attended
with many good results. The produc-
ton of wheat, while it was Improbable
to the farmers, gave employment to but
little labor. Machinery does all the
work, The great wheat fields, therefore,
excluded r1ral population, and while the
cities we're growing there was no in
crease in the population of the country
Fruit growing has worked revolu-
ton. 1t gives profitable employment
to great numbers of people. The lands
have grown more fertile and more val
liable, and new and most profitable
industry has been started. The beau
.iful fruit of the Pacific coast has scarcely
"A rival and needs no tariff wall to pro
tect it from foreign competition. 1t not
only finds a market In all the great
cities Of the United States, but prof
table trade has been opened in London.
The canning industry also is growing,
and fruit which can not be marketed in
it's natural state is canned or dried.
The mistake that is usually made in
fruit raising, az in farming, is too | tile
diversity If various kinds of fruit are
raised, when one kind fails another kind
will produce Fruit which can be sold
IN the winter or spring nearly always
fetches good prices. This fact has sug
gested the establishment of cold storage
warehouses in rural districts, in which
all kinds of fruit can be kept for winter,
Grapes, which are very cheap in the
market in summer, would command
fancy prices at Christmas, and apples
kept until March can nearly always be
sold to advantage. These considera-
tions will doubtless before many years
make the cold storage warehouse an
adjunct to farming.

More Gold Dust.

The shooting gallery has given place
to gold mining, says the Lewiston Trib
une. The managers have taken up the
flooring and are wheeling the dirt to the
river where they wash out about 81 a
day in gold. The building was occupied
IN olden days by Harry Gale as saloon
when gold dust was currency and guam
titles of it were passed over the bar
every day. In handling or weighing it
particles were bound 20 escape and these
sifted through the floor to the earth.
This is the third building IN Lewiston
that has recently proven to have valu-
able deposits and it is likely that many
more will pay handsome returns for a
few days work.

Warrants Must be Called.

The county commissioners on We'd
Eesday discussed the law passed at the
recent session of the Legislature IN re-
Iation to the conduct IF county and
other municipal treasurers. Under that
law, the treasurer of a equity, city or
other municipal corporation must issue
call for warrants ON any fund when
ever there shall be $500 in the fund and
the call must be made Immediately up
on the accumulation of that sum. 1t
also permits the commissioners, council
or governing body to fix lower sum.
In accordance with the latter provision,
the commissioners have set the mark at
$3.50. The law is mandatory and makes
non compliance misdemeanor punish
able by fine of from $25 to $500 and
cause for removal from office. The
treasurer must pay warrants on demand
when there are any moneys In the fund
with which to do it. Only two calls are
to be made ga eh month. OF the county
money only the general county fund
will feel the effect of this law materially
But upon that fund it's effect will be
immediate. In fact the treasurer is now
preparing and will next week make a
call for warrants on such fund. The
law also provides that the bank With
whom the treasurer deposits must give
bonds and the commissioners have called
Treasurer Warnings attention to that
clause. The law also requires the treas
urer to keep the money in his own
possession, though he Is allowed to de-
posit it in a bank provided the bond
mentioned above is giyen.-Commoner.

Misplaced Confidence.

John Kamm, who lives near this city,
was short over 400 pounds of bacon
when he examined his larder last Tues
day morning, He had been entertain
ing some people from Moscow whom he

taking the missing pork with them.
On the same night bicycle belonging

To Arrest an Editor.

Deputy Prosecuting Attorney Joseph
Sessions has asked his superior officer,
Mr.. Garfield, to suspend him from office,
pending the investigation of certain
charges against his moral character in
the Tekoa Globe of May 81, which pub
ilcatlon is to be made the basis of a
charge of criminal libel against c. c..
Cosand, the editor of the Globe, says
the Gazette.
The issue of the Tekoa Globe of May
81 published communication from Col
fax, signed "From One Who Knows"
and which charges Mr.. Sessions with
gross immortality in having seduced a
young girl, afterward shipping her to
Pendleton, where he succeeded in hay
ing an abortion performed, and then
sent the young girl 20 her parents in
the east, where she afterwards died, as a
result of the Pendleton operation.
When Mr.. Sessions was seen by re.
porter he denied the truthfulness of the
account published in the Globe, and
stated that Mr.. j. T. Brown had the
matter in charge A warrant for
Cosand's arrest had not been issued only
because Mr.. Brown had been too busy
to draw up the papers, but expected to
do SO today, (Frday). Mr.. Sessions
stated that it was also his intention to
enter suit for damages against the per-
son who wrote the communication, as

soon as the authorship could be ascer-

soon az the authorship could be ascer-
tanned.
The story told in the communication
has been tod so often on the streets OF
Colfax by those who have been endeav-
oring to have Mr. Sessions removed from
his position as deputy prosecutor, that
it is an old one. The girl IN question
was Miss Vandever, who lived f'r
time with her sister ia the north end,
and also with Mrs. Collins at the Collins
house. Mrs. Collins, who has been a
leader in the effort to secure Sessions
dismissal. to Gazette reporter denied
that she was the writer OF the commnni-
cation, although she expressed a belief
in the publication being Justified.
