ished hard pine heads, are all right for
Il fancy Florida orange.
Fancy cOlOred wraps are no addi-
ton to the fruit 1t is the fruit buyers
are after. not the paper. Nothing is
prettier than perfect orange in d
| light-colored or white wrap.
OF course when your fruit has been
so carefully prepared for market you
must place it in the hands of a rela-
bic commission house to realize the
| highest price. There are reliable
houses in that kind of business, and
| if the reader is in doubt the writer will
| furnish you the name Of the most reli-
able house in America, who could ham
die every box Of the kind of 'r1lit men
| toned, to the satisfaction of the ship
| per. seller and buyer. The correct way
to realize the highest price is to place
your fruit in reliable hands to sell. If
put up as described, there will be no
trouble in getting good prices, and
much more than you can realize in any
other way. There are many people of
means all over this country who are
willing to pay good prices for this
choice kind Of fruit. Put your fruit into
the fruit centers direct, and realize all
there is in it. Never ship your or
anges till they are perfectly ripe. If
you cannot tell when that is their con-
ditiOn. ask your wife or your best girl.
When they say that is the best or
ange / ever ate" you can ship them.
Many oranges have gone forward
this year that have proved, and will
prove a disappointment to the ship

was wholly unripe, with an acid taste

the box, and on arrival at destination
the fruit was in poor order. Certainly
no one wants that kind Of an orange.
Prices were in keeping with the fruit |
Had the fruit been held on the trees
thirty days, the returns would have
been increased from One-third to one
half If a shipper could see the fruit

glance detect the perfect from the inn

Jacksonville a few days ago, the writ

insects only gather around decayed
fruit This fruit had not been packed
three days. and it would require five
days more to reach destination.
Had this fruit been properly cured
before packing, this decayed fruit
could have been detected. The ship
per will be disappointed in his returns,
and no doubt think the receivers are
reporting an untruth when they say,
'Flui' arrived in bad order.

DISDte OIU. w JOUCcs buC tu- gineer employed at the shelter, met with a painful accident last night while ip the performance of his du- ties. While engaged in oiing up the machinery his blouse caught in the wheels and his arm was badly bruised and torn before he could get 1t out. It Is thought no bones were broken, however.
 Prospector: The putting in of new machinery to increase the smelling capacity of the c, pper Queen Co. will add much to Bisbee. At no time since the opening of the original Copper Queen mine has the outlook been so encouraging. The company conti- tinues to employ the usual number of men and conseq quently all seems pros- porous.
 Last week the Bisbee correspondent of the Prospector reported the follow ing: Another death occurred at the mine today. Charles Auschutz, a miner who has been employed for some time by the Copper Queen Co.,, was blown to atoms by an explosion by giant powder at about 3 o'clock to- day, while working at the "B" level of the Holbrook shaft. How the acci- dent occurred is not known as but two men, Anschutz and his comrade John Hughes, were engaged at this particular point and they were se- parated at the time of the explosion. The deceased left a wife and two children.
 Star: Frank Bettman of San Fran cisco, was among last evenings arriv- als. Frank tells story of rapid work in Justice Shaw's court at Bowie last week, when the justice disposed of a case of murder (the burial service in- cluded in fifty-five minutes. A Mexi- can had threatened to kill another, but in the fracas the assailng party was worsted and received his quietus III cDOft UIuCts IC NCtQltt WaS hOu guilty, self-defense being shown, al- though the dead man received the fatal shot in the back. He was laid away with his boots on, not even a box being used in the service. The shooter dug the grave three feet deep, and after covering up the hole, piled stones on top to keep off the coyotes.
 Prospector:A The Prospector devil was at the circus, today he was ex- plai1ing the clown revolving act to a group of companions who had gath cred in the press room. The devil wanted to give practical demonstra- tion. The nearest thing to barrel about the office was the revolving drum of the cylinder press on which the paper is printed. He had one boy turn the crank while the devil hero mounted the revolving drum and was in the act of giving a repetition Of the marvellous act of the clown, the youthful spectators gazing on with open mouthed wonder, when suddenly the whing-whang of the delivery at tachment of the press, which had not been fastened, was drawn under the bed of the press aud broken. The sudden jar threw the performing devil headlong into the roller rack, miraculously escaping without any in- jury. The Prospector is obliged to send for new attachment from the press foundry but we will wager our devil can do the revolving barrel per

Opposes Leasing.

The complaint Of twenty years ago about stockmen counting their miles of wire fences by fifty and hundred, says the Denver Field and Farm, is becoming again familiar in certain sections of the country. Little flock. masters are content with having a herder to look after the flock and herd without miles of wire fence, and big combines should be compelled to do likewise. A large cattle company is busy fencing in the entire range north of Bent county, and is ordering local sheep and cattlemen of the range. Judge Hallett ought to to take hard in this deal, and the state land board should at least do some shufiie. A few years ago the Whitecap frater- nity of New Mexico settled question of this kind without going into court
 -nor did the court go to them. Men who have given thought to the matter know what will be the result with the enactment of lease law for New Mexico. The miles of fence will re- turn; the cattle companies will domin- ate and own the earth, and the small owner, the little holder, will be crushed to death. The privilege of free range is alike fair to all. The lease law would be to the advantage of tha large companies alone.-Inter- national Industrial Record.

ing of DR.. Kings New Discovery, says
that last winter his wife was attacked
with In grippe, and her case grew so
serious that physicians at Cowden and
Pana could do nothing for her. 1t
seemed to develop into hasty con-
sumption. Having DIR. Kings New
Discovery in store, and selling lots of
it, he took n bottle home, and to the
surprise of all she began to get better
from first dose, and half dozen dollar
bottles cured her sound and well. DIR.

which are SO cleverly executed that
the average person would never sus-

OF great value are always selected by
countertieters for imitation, notably
the celebrated Hostetter Stomach Bit
ters, which has many imitators but
no equals for indigestion, dyspepsia,
constipation, nervousness and general
debility. The Bitters sets things
right In the stomach. and when the
stomach is In good order 1t makes

VETOED BY The GOVERNOR.

House bill No. 1913 which was vlgor-
ously opposed by the entire Kootenai
county delegation in the session OF
the legislature just closed was vetoed
by Governor Steunenberg on last
Tuesday. This is what he says OF the
bill:
"Boise, March IA, l899-Hon. M.
Patrie, Secretary Of Stafe-Sir: House
bill No. 1893, An act to provide for
the levying Of special taxes for gcner-
al road purposes, and for collecting
the same, is herewith filed without
approval.
II this bill aimed to provide for
the construction OF roads, certainly
no fault could be found with the object
Truly there is no part of our govern
mental economy OF greater importan-
ce then good roads, and none is worse
abused. Within the past eight years,
no less then ST. 900, 900 has been ex-
pended ia county road work in this
state, and excepting bridges and other
improvements of similar nature, the
universal complaint is that roads gen.
orally are Ia no better condition.
There is apparent need for legislation
that will intelligently systematize
road expenditures. If no more than
one mile of good road Is constructed
In each county per year, 1t is only a
matter of time when universal good
roads will prevail. II, instead of the
annual and ever recurring pl0Wlng
and scraping Of our roads under the
management of score or more OF
constantly changing supervisors, eacn
with different method, a fixed and
proper system Of permanent road
building, under the control and super
vision OF competent engineer (the
county surveyor, for instance,) was
adopted, the 81, 900, 900 or more that
will be paid out for road work in this
state within the next ten years would
give US roads In fact as well as name.
The bill under review contains nj
provisions whatever in this impOrtan
particular. In fact, its main provi-
d sion tends IN the opposite direction
In that it practically places in the
control OF the road districts, alone Il
determine what shall be the policy
Of that particular district. Should
such u system obtain, one distric
might, by vote Of the people, take ad
vantage OF the law and levy a specia
road tax, while an adjacent district
in which the necessity for road i'm
provement equallyAeXists, would no
vote the tax. l am Of the opinion
that the provisions Of this bill woul'
lead to interminable confusion, an,
would accomplish no good purpose
4 Respectfully,
i FRANK STEUNENBURG,
Governor
