THEY'LL KNOW US BY OUR FRUITS

The State Horticultural Society is
in session at Boise. We intended
last week to give the notice which is
due it, but the auditors report pre-
vented, However, Mr.. Galloway S
timely communication doubtless
served the purpose In fact hardly
any notice at all is necessary in n
matter Of this Importance, as the all
pervading interest in frut-culture is

brated as a fruit producer that is not
controlled and guided by higher ideas
Of fruit culture. They are only fos
tered through proper organization
1t would increase production and
when well under way would lead on
more easily to needed organization to
foster the marketing of the fruit after
produced The individual fruit
grower is at disadvantage in dis
posing of his surplus. He cannot
keep properly posted He don't
know who to deal with, and Is proved
upon by unreliable commission pi-
rates A proper organization can ia
cilitate the marketing of green and
dried fruits; make it possible for the
small grower to be able to dispose of
his fruit with us much profit rs the
large growers; create demand
throughout the East for firstcass
fruit, and by operation bring fruit
growers into more direct communica-
ton with the consumer, and keep the
fruitgrower posted as to prices, cost
of transportation, market supply and
demand, and furnish all the informa-
ton that is necessary to the producer
IT he would successfully market his
fruit. BY their fruits We shall know
them. Let ours not be wormy.

A SERIOUS MATTER.

We received long article from
Indian valley last week-or rather
a long part of an article, as the open
ing portion of it was not enclosed.
The writer stated he was moved to
write 'because many have msunder-
stood my position on the money
question, which has caused us many
grievous moments of worry and pain,
there being no information conveyed
anywhere in the communication to
indicate who the person is who has
been so woefully and wrongfulv mis-
understood on the money question.
and it is highly important that things
just now be sifted down to the plain
est and most specific plane. That
the sovereign citizen who sends us
the fatherless communication should
have his position on the money ques-
ton misunderstood in the very slight
est degree by the great and intelligent
Washington county public is very apt
to shake our whole civil basis; our
political foundations are in imminent
danger Of becoming shattered and
iniirm. This is the year when three
or four great national conventions
will be held and which will have a
deal to do with the future of the
whole country. All possibilities
must be carefully weighed. Every
man must closely scrutinize his neigh
Dor. And to know that right here in
our intelligent midst should exist u
case of single person whose position
on the money question is entirely
misunderstood, is very painful and
aggravating indeed. 1t should be
carefully looked into and Strengthened
out if possible.

Isn't that shamefuly ridiculousY
and more so when you place it along
side our calamity valuations. The
eastern man gazes in establishment at
the poverty stricken assessment rolls
Of our counties, and with horror at
our paralyzing tax rate, and resolves
to stay away from such poverty
and tax-ridden country. Yet we are
not paying heavier taxes on the real
value of our property perhaps than
he is. Not one of our counties but
whose property has a valuation two
or three times what he CLEANS from
our assessment roll. The revenue
law enacted by the last legislature
is farce. Under it counties have
still further lowered their valuation
to escape heavy state taxes Under
it the whole state has been going
backwards instead of forwards, that
is according to all outside appear
ances. We know it has gone ahead.
A high rate and low levy is sure
injury to the state, but we have never
had Legislature that would treat the
matter wisely

To layman up tree it does APP
pear as though such things as consti-
tutions and other miscellaney were
useless old junk in our courts under
the modern judicial regime For
any political purpose the legislature
can disintegrate, attach or wipe out
whole counties against the popular
wish, and the solons Of the ermine
say it must stand. Such time. hon
ored decisions as ga vote of the peo-
pile interested" must 90 by the
board. Such is the impression con
veyed to our humble mind by the
Blaine Lincoln decision.

THE WEISER SIGNAL.
THURSDAY. JANUARY %. 1896.

Our great and wise agricultural
secretary Morton says 'the common
people of the United States will have
TO learn to eat round-steak instead of
surloin. That is just what the gold
standard will result in and that gilt

its fine fbered advocates. tits gold

A traveller in the east wrote a let
ter the other day to the Spokesman
Review telling how, when he present
ed twenty dollar gold piece at the
bank, the cashier weighed it and an
nounced it to be 35 cents short. The
man refused to submit to the deduc-
non and it was given back to him.
de offered it to his hotel keeper in
settling his bill. Landlord shook his
head and said he had no scales for
weighing it, Every one stared al
the possessor Of gold piece as if they
thought he was counterfeiter. A
short time ago a Montana banker
sent $40, 600 to the sub treasury for
greenbacks. He was locked $40

being carried out jams us up against
the ever-present fact that the people
Of the west are still chattering
babel of unorganized wind-ighters, as
against the solid phalanx Of the
enemy. The only way to win IS to
fight in the morning, fight at noon
and fight at night. If the people
realized the necessity of this every
community would be regularly Or
gained silver brigade. In each
town the business men would be
an organized unity and could proba-
bly, induce their bank to take the step
suggested by the Review. The little
local bank is part of the place; it
associates with the people and thinks
and acts with them, and the unani-
nous solicitation of its neighbors,
patrons and business associates ought
to easily persuade it to transfer its
account to silver's friend. In the
absence of this condition some head
way may be made through the medi-
nm of the press, if all the papers
will put the Reviews suggestion be-
fore the public and sound it in every
-own and hamlet. 1t Is the duty of
western banks to help fight the battle
