]. N. Kyle, manager of the Oregon
Fruit & Produce Co., was called to AL
bany yesterday. by some OF the leading
fruit growers. ..and induced to establish a
brancn business at that point. A ware
house was rented, ana large supply OF
boxes and other packing material tele-
graphed for, as well as corps OF expert
packers 90 come from California. Fruit
will be received forthwith and by next
week some shipments will be made.
This transaction speaks volumes for
the Salem compaov, and will no doubt
prove OF mutual benefit TO both. The
fact that Mr.. Van Eaten, who is the
pioneer fruit shipper of the Willamette
valley, is right at Chicago. looking af:er
the shipments made by this company, is
an advantage that all who know his
qualifications are anxious TO profit by.
The prices received for all shipment so
far made have been entirely satisfactory
TO the growers, aud gratifying to Mr.
Kyle. There has been no change in the
market, and it is safe 10 say that
the fruits now enroute from here and
being shipped will bring good pricez.

Some of the critical cranks who are
bowling about unnecessary clerkships,
put 1t about this way. that there have
been about 200 clerks appointed. that
these were entirely useless, that at IS
q day the Atate will lose $6O, 900 etc.
The real facts are that about eighty
or ninety clerks and such officials have
been hired. That while some of them
might be spared yet the most of them
will be needed more or less during the
rest Of the session. There is another
fact, that all those members who
havn't succeeded In getting a friend
in as clerk IRE more mad than any
body else. just criticism, there is
room for, but don't exaggerate.

THE NOBEL PRIZES.

The residuary estate of the late
Alfred Nobel, the Swedish chemist
and dynamite manufacturer, is esti-
mated to amount to $lO. .00O. 900. This
enormous sum was not bequeathed
to the University of Stockholm, as
was first announced. but is to be
funded for the advancement of SCI
ence. The annual income is expected
to reach at least $3.50, 600. This is to
be divided into five equal parts for
prizes; the first to be awarded to the
person who during the year makes the
most important discovery in physics;
the second, to him who IS similarly
successful IN the domain Of chemistry;
the third, to him who gains the high
est distinction as discoverer in ply
siology or medicine; the fourth. to the
writer in the last-named field who
shall produce the maximum opus; and
the fifth, to whOmsoever may have
done the most to promote peace.
These prizes are sald to be thrown
open TO all the world. These glitter
ing offers Of $50 900 each annually can.
not but have most stimulating ef.
feet upon students in the lines speci.
fed. Those who receive them will by
degrees form guild of distinction as

The new immigration bill to re-
strict ignorant and pauper immigra-
tion Is very restrictive. As the bill
now stands every immigrant above
the age Of sixteen, male or female,
who cann0t read q sentence of the u.

The only exception Is In case Of old

willing to accept its results. As .
whole, North Dakota has good set Of
Judges both In the districts aud on the

connected with the election Of Judges

men who can dip In the dirty pool Of
politics and come out clean; and this
fact only shows up more clearly when

does not turn away all his clerks when
times are dull; because when times
are good he wants those clerks who
understand ,,sshis business, TO- doShis
work.
Mr.. Gilpin says. "the probate Judge
has no need of q clerk" whether that
assertion is true or not, let Mr. Gil
pin blame the legislature which by
law allows the Judge the salary of
clerk whether he has one or not. So
the clerk is optional with the Judge.
The clerk of the court is also by law
allowed deputy, but for nearly two
years BY his own motion he has only
kept clerk to save expence. The
clerk has now arrived at his majority
and is entitled to his deputyship.

more. There .is never q time during

Is another Of Mr.. Gilpin's statements,
which shows simply chat Mr.. Gilpin
doesn't know anything about the busi-
ness Of that Office.
The best way to reduce the cleri-
cal forces in the county offices is. BY
statute to reduce the amount Of work,
by cutting out the cumbrOus meth
DDS Of bookkeeping and recording
and making them more simple.
While criticism Uf some individual
cases might possibly be made, yet 1t
is probable that in any similar num-
Der Of employees In any other business
the same amount and kind Of excep-
tions could be taken. Some men
do more work than others. always aud
everywhere, but we believe that our
oficials and their deputies. do as
much work for their money, as do any
similar number Of of1cials anywhere.

;faY0rs, In the administration of their
duties cut little figure to the general
public. A county auditor. q register,
y state secretary, or any such officer
may and can perform his duties quite
satisfactorily even to the party who
opposed him, because in very few in
stances do politics or political Ia

case Of the Judge. his everyday work
Is to decide between men, some Of
whom have been his warm friends and
supporters, while others have done all
they could to hinder him from being
elected.
In view Of these facts, the follow
ing questions come to US. as. they do
to every man, who thinks at all. Can
q man go into heated, political fight
without becoming prejudiced in fav-
or of those who support him for Office
and being equally prejudiced against

A key that will unlock these ques.
tiuns is another. II you, reader, were

you like better tostand before q Judge

1t is true, that appointed Judges,
