AS q matter OF fact we import our
potatoes from New ZEALAND or Cali
fornia. Our rsdishss are OF very
poor quality as are our Strawberries.
Most OF the cabbage used here
comes from California as does
celery. Cucumbers are as rule
blighted. aud raspberries We have
never had the pleasure OF tasting
here. We have pineapples and fair
ly good lettuce but native orange S
are rarely 10 the market. We used
to import lines from Samoa and
lemons from San Francisco, from
which city we also get our spples,
pears, peaches, apricots aud cherries.

The reason is simply that we grow
sugar, sugar and nothing except
sugar, aud that the small farmer ia
an impossibility because the sugar

MORE MEASUREMENTS.

We fail to see what can be gained
by the constant misstatements sent
from here to the Mainland in regard
to our wonderful Cd production OF
fruits and vegetables. We quote
from Fruit Trade Journal and Pro.
duce Record which tells our fellow
citizens on the Mainland:
SLOW great are the possibilities of
Hawaii, as q fruit and vegetable
growing country, will be under
stood when it becomes known that
four crops of potatoes have been
produced in succession on the same
piece OF land within twelve mon, he.
nauisnes become edible ten d.ys
after sowing. Strawberry vines be,r
fruit all the year. The berries are
of the fuest favor.
"Cabbage grows all the year, and
it apparently makes no difference
whether it is planted in the spring,
summer, autumn or winter. Parsley
once sown grows forever, apparent
ly. Lima beans continue to grow
and bear for over year, and they
have to be gathered every week after
starting to bear. Clcnm5ers bear
the entire year and so do tomatoes,
which, with proper attention, bear
for years. Raspberries bear for SIX
months.
"Pineapples come into bearing
when the plants are four months
old and bear in abundance for
years. Lettuce can be planted at
any time and it developes quickly.
The same is true of celery"

The Democratic trumpet had sounded, and it told Judge Melvin Jeter that Walker, Hon. John F. Walker, Dem- ocrat and upright Christian gentleman, was about to assume the judicial func- tions hitherto exercised by Jeter-Judge Melvin Jeter.
 ' This story is to tell of the last official act of Judge Melvin Jeter.
 Recently George F. Sedberry. Assistant Examiner of Public Accounts, examined the books and accounts of Judge John r. Walker, which, by the way, were found to be in excellent condition. While scanning the pages of the election record book in the office of the Probate Judge, he discovered a unique record" It was the last official message of Hon.

BRIEF SUBMITTED YESTERDAY
 IN SUPREME COURT.
Appeals of Sam Cartledge, Gaming; Shivers Wells and Henry Young Also Were Submitted to
 the Court

Several Montgomery cases were sub mitted to the Alabama Supreme Court yesterday on appeals, among them being the case of Sam Lide convicted of mur- der and sentenced to life Imprisonment. the case of Sam Cartledge. convicted of gaming. and the case of Shivers Wells, a negro, convicted of stealing chickens. A petition fo.. habeas corpus for Henry Young, a negro was also submitted.
 The Lide appeal was submitted to the court on brief although 1t was briefly al gued by Colonel Francis G. CaffeyL who represents the defendant. Lide was convicted of killing a white man named Johnson in Montgomery county. His trtl in the Montgomery City Court attracted considerable attention in the summer of 1900. He is now in the county jail.
 Sam Cartledge was convicted of gaming in the City Court of Montgomery. He has figured in Montgomery courts on sew eral occasions and has served a term in the penitentiary. Cartledge was charg- ed with highway robbery by D. F. Mum of Barbour county, last January. and the case is still pending against him.

 Tennent Lomax, Commander of Camp Holtzclaw. was also present, and he res- bonded to a call MT. Lomax told of the difficulty of securing a quorum of the members of his camp. He could not ex- plain the cause of the indifference dis played by the members and expressed the hope that in future he would be able to present a better report of Camp Holtz- claw, which failed have a meeting last night because of non-attendance of the members.

HIS LAST OFFICIAL ACT PoPULIsT PROBATE JUDGE Ex- PLAINS HIS DEFEAT. A Unique "Record" Dug Up by State Examiner in Official Books

 Yesterday.

There was a time when the Populist party predominated in Crenshaw County. It does not predominate there any more. When the Populist party did predomin- ate in Crenshaw County one of its lead CTS was Hon. Melvin Jeter straightfor- ward, honest citizen, but wrong in poli- tics. In the course of human events, Hon. Melvin Jeter, honest but Populist, was elected Probate Judge of Crenshaw County, which place he filled six years.
 Democrats of Crenshaw County sung low these six years. But the party was reorganized and when the election came around in 1898 the Democrats swept the Populists before them. The political cy- clone blew over and Judge Melvin JeteI found that his official house had been builded upon the sand. He was clean beat He had no political job. He was mad.
