ITALIANS RESENT ATTACK.
Claim Their Lemons Are AS Fine as
Those of California

New York. March 6.-The Journal of
Commerce says:
The Italian chamber of commerce Of
this city has resolved to answer and
refute the attacks made on Italian lem-
ons by several firms Of this city AID
elsewhere The chamber announces
that a special committee has been ap-
pointed which has made arrangements
with the Fruit Buyers union to have
strictly impartial and unbiased ana
lysis" made of the lemons of California
and those produced in Italy. BY. this
analysis it is intended to show the rel
alive merits Of the two products as TO
the amount of cItr1c acid contained.
essential oil in the peel and durability.
The committee is now awaiting a spec
iai shipment Of Italian fruit which, il
is stated, viii be compared with Sc
lectad quality Of California lemons
For some time the question as to
which fruit is superior, the imported or
the domestic as TO the qualities refeI-T-
ed to, particularly the amount Of acid
contained, has attracted a great deal OF
attention, both in this market and on
the Pacific coast. The controversy was
precipitated by a test secured by he
Earl Fruit company, the result Of which
was favorable to California lemons. On
~ recently, however, Mr. S. Saitta, a
prominent broker dealing in Sicily lem
OlS, had test made which gave eT.-
the test made at his own request ana
expense by AIesSrs. G., A. Ferguson and
r. J. Neste1l, chemists. The latter made
an analysis regarding the acidity CT
California and Sicily lemons. For tEis
purpose there were used L California
and Il Sicily lemons. furnished BY
Messrs. Krone brothers The result is

In speaking OF this test at the time
Mr.. Saitta said.
The test brings out the point that
the real value Of the imported Sicily
lemon is the large amount of citric acid
it contains. It has never been possible
to grow lemons in California equal in
this respect to those procured in Sicily
because of the absence of sulphur il
the soil Of California. The soil in Sicily
is impregnated with sulphur which i'm

large quantity Of acid. Buyers do not
purchase lemons for their appearance,
but merely for the acid they contain.
California lemons have thinner slxins

months, while the domestic fruit, on ac-
count of their thin skin and smaller

Miss Helen Kimber is anxious that
the women OF Kansas should vote and
she sends the following to the state
Journal for publication:
In the upper branch OF our legisla-
ture this winter some senator said:
Many Kansas women do not use the
privilege already accorded them of vot-
ing. hence all Kansas women, whether
they live in town or country should be
denied the right"
This excuse is unjust and untenab1e
but do you not see that you, by refrain
ing from use of this sacred privilege
are allowing yourself to be the stumb-
and civilization? Even more than that
while this is used as an excuse it is the
cause of an arbitrary rule compelling
thousands of women who desire to help
bear their responsibility in the states
life and development from thus doing
So
Kansas is entitled to the best Of all
of her peop1e-not half OF them. If you
will register and vote this spring it viii

The railroad companies and the gran

the popular prejudice against stock

the consolidation of the forest reserve

BIG LAND LITIGATION.

A dispatch from Washington says
that several million acres of public
land IN New Mexico has been fenced in
by the American Live Stock company
and that the company is resisting ev-
cry effort of the government to dis
possess them. The interior department
is receiving many complaints against
the action of the company in fencing
the public lands and running wire
fences across established trails. The
commissioner of the general land office
decided against the company and was
sustained by the secretary of the in
terror. The company had the case re-
opened and claimed their right to pos
session under an old Mexican grant
made in 1913. Again the commissioner
decided against the company. The
company was granted an extension of
time to April 1. 1902, and it will ap-.
peal to congress for relief.

building of a railroad from Monterey

ton. The concession will carry with
it government subsidy of about $4,000
per mile and certain donations of land.
