THE LONDON FRUIT SALES.
Prices Nearly Twice as Good as Those
in the East.
Probability That Future Shipments
Will be Considerably In
creased.

J. B. Quigley Of the California Fruit
Transportation Company is in receipt
of a cablegram showing the sale in Lon
don yesterday of the first trainload of
fruit this season, which left Sacramento
July 7th. The results of the sale are
very satisfactory.
The pears were all in half boxes
twenty five pounds) and realized as fol-
lows: Bartletts, 81 As to 81 "a; Souve-
mir de Congress, 81 81 to So; Beurre
Clairgeau, 81 09 to 81 80; plums (smalD,
81 SO.
BY all the local shippers these prices
are considered astonishingly good, as
the fruit shipped was not of the best.
The pears were very small and would
not compare favorably at all with those
now being shipped. That the English
dealers would pay such large prices for
small and immature fruit, certainly
augurs we'll for the better quality of
fruit, which will be sent to London the
balance of the season.
AS the cost of shipping to London,
including rail and ocean freight and re-
frigeration is $3 per 100 pounds, it will
be seen that this first shipment will
show a good net profit, and many
car has been sold in Chicago, New York
and other Eastern markets during the
past two weeks that will not show any
thing like the above profit to the grower
The California Fruit Transportation
Company deserves the thanks of Cali
fornia fruit growers for the persistency
and pluck it has shown in its endeavor
to open up new markets, and to that ex-
tent relieving the markets of this coun-
try.
1t is the intention to start a special
export train each Tuesday evening dur
ing the coming two months, and as it
now looks, Mr.. Quigley expects to be
compelled to accept more than five cars
per week, and even should the size of the
train be increased to seven or eight cars,
there is no danger that this additional
carload or two will cause any weakening
in prices in market the size of London.
The amount of fruit shipped East yes
terday was 80 carloads, as against A

carloads 7s4 were peaches, ~ plums,

yer advocates are forced to admit this
to be the truth, and their only reply to
it is In the nature of reliance upon a
threat, namely, that the United States
can by it's domestic action force the
other nations of the world that much
sooner to come to agreements fore
cast, we submit, that is wholly one of
hope and faith unjustified by anything
substantial or reasonable.
So we repeat, that this Government
ought to and we believe will conserve
a larger use Of silver, very great in
crease in the volume of that currency,
and one way to that end is immediate,
within the lines of the policy of the Re-
publican party, and is free from any
impracticability whatever, namely, to
make $50 in silver legal tender, to is
sue no paper based on gold or calling for
gold for less than $40, to coin the ingot
silver the Government has on hand,
and, we may add, to create an issue in
the form of a silver note for $50.
Under such adjustment all the silver
of the country would be put into circu-
lation, the volume being thus immensely
and beneficially enlarged, and no in
jury would come to the interchange Of
commerce between the nations Under
such an adjustment the demands of
the people can be met for all domestic
purposes, our credit abroad be main
tanned and the work prosecuted of
bringing about international agreement
under which true bimetallism can be es-
tablished.

Thelaw provides that Boards of Equal
ization shall sit at stated periods to ad-
just valuations made by Assessors that
Justice may be done between the Gov
ernment and the people. 1t Is not to
be assumed because citizen has been
made Assessor that therefore his judg-
ment as to values is unassailable and
is practically absolute. That Assessors
are not free from error Is found in the
fact that Boards of Equalization always
do correct and reverse their valuations
to some extent, on testimony absolutely
undeniable in it's support Of just claims.
Without an equaHzing body the Asses
sor would be an autocrat of the most
dangerous character If there were no
appeals from his judgment assessing for
taxation would be liable to become the
most oppressive of tyrannies. We no.
tice a disposition on the part of some
of the press to assail harshly the
Boards of Equalization because they
dare to disturb the judgment of Asses
sors here and there. But why is it to
be assumed that the judgment of the
latter official ds superior to that of sew
eral men in a body elected for the ex-
press purpose of sitting in judgment

ANOTHER POOH BAH.

There is no campaign without its joke,
and this one has it's joke early-pro-
vided that all it hinges upon is true, and
at this writing there is every reason to
believe it to be as is charged.
The American Merchant Marine Asso-
citation is sending out a good deal of
very interesting, very instructive liter
ature in favor of means to be adopted
to restore the American merchant ma
rine to the position it occupied in 1928,
when it carried 80 per cent. of all our
foreign commerce, whereas dt now car
ries but little over IL per cent
The main scheme of the association is
to ask the passage Of strong protective
laws, which will give a preference to
American bottoms, by making the duty
on imports in foreign bottoms much
heavier than on imports brought in on
American bottoms.
The association says this is sound Re-
publican doctrine, and there is no doubt
about it. We believe the American
Merchant Marine Association is right dn
its missionary work; it certainly has
the facts and the strong statistics on
its side of the argument.
And now develops the joke. Mr..
Sewall, the Democratic nominee for the
Vice-Presidency, is a member of the
Marine Association, one of its most
earnest supporters, one of the largest
contributors to it. More than that, Mr..
Sewall, it is stated, is now President of
the association. 1t is to his credit If he
Is. 1t honors him to promote the cause
of protection to American shipping in
terests. But it does jar one a bit to
reflect that Mr.. Sewadl stands upon the
Democratic platform and is asking for
votes because he adheres to that plat
form, which condemns the very policy
of protection which Mr.. Sewall as Presi-
dent Of the Marine Association advo-
Gates and contributes money to ad-
vance.
Is this another Pooh Bah case? Come
over ON this side, Mr. Democratic Nom
inee Sewall, where Mr. Marine Associa-
ton President Sewan cannot hear u.s.
The Oakdale woman who on Thursday
fired three bullets into her husband will
have general sympathy, and that she
will ever be punished is improbable.
What could the poor thing do?' The
drunkard husband brought home with
him a boon companion at night as
drunk as he was. He ordered the wife
to leave the house, as he owned it, and
followed up the command by violent
assault upon her. The woman packed
up some clothing and started from her
dwelling, when the drunken brute fol-
lowed her and attempted TO strike her
down with a bottle. She was prepared
to defend herself, having wearied of the
mans abuse and beatings, and she ac-
cordingly pumped lead into him by the
aid of gunpowder and pistol-and the
world will say that she did precisely
the right thing; that it was not her duty
to submit to be beaten down by a
drunken man with a bottle lifted to
crush the head of the wife he had
sworn to protect, cherish and honor.
OF course 1T must be said the woman
violated the law; that she had no right
to take 1t into her own hands; that she
was doing an unlawful thing when she
shot the man; that she is an offender
and may suffer for her deed, though
we doubt it-but she will be justified by
public sentiment, and there the matter
will end.
