FRUIT YIELD
Be LARGE
Snake River Valley Will Produce
More Fruit This Season
Than Ever Before

The prospects for bOuntiful fruit
crop in Lewiston Valley this year are
excellent. The conditions during the
spring season has been phenomenal and
nothing short of a blight can hinder
the crop this year being larger than
those Of former years. A prominent
fruit grower arrived in the city last
evening from down the Snake river and
reports that the acreage during the
past few years has been increased at
every available point. new ground is
being irrigated and already fruit
growers are contemplating the enlarg-
ing of many Of the orchards already
bearing to a large extent.
1t is estimated that fully $50 carloads
lower river points between Lewiston
and Riparia and the cherry crop is ex-
traordnary this year. Owing to the
wind and storms along the river during
the past week the cherries are falling
fast but the supply will not be lessened
materially. The vast acreage which is
increasing year by year. in orchards in
the Snake river valley, will in a few
short years make this section the ban
ner fruit growing country of the en-
tire coast.
In Vineland alone the increase this
year over last in the fruit acreage is
wonderful and the supply coming from
this section Will more than fill the
wants Of the local trade. Much Of the
fruit from there will be shipped to
outside points by the jobbers who are
already receiving advance orders for
the first of the crop.

WORKING ON
THE REPORT
Engineer A. J. Wiley Will Com
plete it For Electric Line
People this Month

At the office of the Lewiston &
Southeastern Electric Railway COM
pany word was received from Engineer
A. J. Wiley who recently examined the
surveys and general conditions and
statistics of the company that he was
at work computing the data and would
forward his final report within the
month. Mr.. Wiley while here, i'm COM
pany with President Spoffard and En-
gineer HILL made thorough trip over
the lines as surveyed under the direc-
ton of Mr.. Hill and also examined the
power plant below Grangeville. He
was much impressed with the condi-
tons surrounding the project and ex-
pressed himself as entirely pleased
with the looks of things in general
Mr.. Wiley has national reputation as
will carry weight with the best inter-
ests in the United States. He makes
his headquarters at Boise and only
recently made the report on the Boise
Payette Electric power plant which has
lately brought capital to put the deal
through. He is also consulting en-
gineer on some of the large power pro-
jects now under way in California and
Wyoming.
To Mr.. Wiley belongs the credit Of
engineering the most difficult piece Of
work ever attempted on the Snake
river. After all engineers had failed to
make the connection Of the big dam at
the Swan Falls power plant. and were
about to abandon the idea, Mr.. Wiley
was called and figured out the deta lis
SO infinitely that the work was COM
pleted without a hitch. This is the
first and only dam that has been con-
| structed across the Snake river and
| is directly due to his engineering abil-
! ity. Mr. Wiley is now the consult
ing engineer Of the Swan Falls people
This company furnishes the power for
the mines Of Owyhee county. He Is
also consulting engineer in many minor
projects in this and other states and
his time Is SO taken up that the Lew
iston & Southeastern people may well
feel proud that they were able to Sc
cure his assistance at this time. The
report which ne is now making out for
the company ia looked for with much
interest and there is no doubt but what
the success of the enterprise. in a
measure. will depend largely on the ma :
ture OF the report.

pany is now completing the work OF

The Tax Reform Mr.. Cornwell
Stands For.

The Tax Reform Mr.. Cornwell
Stands For.
The tax bills passed by the spe-
DIAL session of the legislature i'm
pose no extra taxes upon the ex-
press companies. those great oor-
porations which derive an enor-
nous revenue from the people of
the state, yet which have little pro-
perty in the state subject to taxa
ton.
Hon. John j. Cornwell, the
Democratic candidate for governor,
was the father of bill which pro.
vlded for the taxation of these cor.
porations, and which would have
added largely to the revenue of the
state, enabling. with proper eoono-
my, genuine reduction in taxes
That is the kind of tax reform
for which Mr.. Cornwell stands
and it is the kind of tax reform
against which the Republican
party stands, for that bill was
killed, not by vote of either branct
of the state Legislature, but by the
veto of a Republican governor.

The State has been most fortu-

and the conditions in West Virgin

The Man VINO Keeps Ahead.

In every newspaper we pick up
we're sure to find lot of gush
about the man behind the counter
aud the man behind the gun; the
man behind the buzz saw, the man
behind his son; the man behind
the times and the man behind his
rents; the man behind the plow-
share and the man behind the
fence; and the man behind the
whistle and the man behind the
bars; the man behind the kodak
and the man behind the cars; the
man behind his whiskers; the man
behind his fists; and everything
behind has entered on the list.
But they've skipped another fellow
of whom nothing has been said
the fellow who is even or a little
way ahead, who always pays for
what he gets, whose bills are always
signed-he's blame sight more
important than the man who is be-
hind. All we editors and mer.
chants and the whole commercial
clan are indebted for existence to
this honest fellowman. He keeps
US all in business and his town is
never dead and SO we take our hat
off to the man that ia ahead.

West Virginia School Improvement

West Virginia School Improvement
League.
In order to correct misunder-
standing that seems to exist on the
part of some parents. regarding
this School Improvement League,
it seems best to make these state
ments:
The League was organized at
the last meeting of w. Va, Educa-
tional Association at Morgantown,
by the advice and with the assist
ance of the State Superintendent
of Schools and of the President of
w. Va. University. for the purpose
of improving the condition and
appearance of the school houses
and grounds of w. Va.
County Leagues, with member
ship in the state organization have
been formed in nearly every coun-
ty in the state.
The pledge that has been signed
by over three thousand members
is substantially as follows:
II hereby pledge myself to de-
vote at least one day this year to
the furtheranoe of the purposes of
the W. Va, School Improvement
League in the way that seems most
practical"
The above pledge is eractly
what your child has signed. This
day" does not have to be given
all at one time, or in one way. If
a member prefers to pay dollar
the constitution permits it, but
your child makes no pledge to give
a dollar-on the contrary was re-
quested not to. No one was CON-
PEELED to sign this pledge, as only
willing help is wanted. If there is
any objection on the part of any
parents to Improvement" in our
schools their children need not
take part with the workers in this
League. though several thousand
children as we'll as grown folks in
the state are helping in it's work
Hoping that 1 have made clear
the work and requirements of the
League.

Directed Against Real Estate.

The DaSsan tax buccaneers
seem to have had in view the whole
sale plundering of real estate own
ers chiefly. when they ran up TO
the masthead the black flag of
bogus reform. The rich stock
speculator. or bondholder, who is
as rule keen enough not to put
his wealth into the ground, solid
investment though it may be, will
profit by the very provision which
the Dawson pirates point out as
the feature of their alleged reform
most beneficial to the farmer. A
cursory examination in the light
of the new assessment law shows
at once how this must result.
For instance. the assessors must
list. Real and personal property,
not at it's actual cash valve, but at
the price for which the owner
could sell it at voluntary sale.
This means that the farmer will
have assessed to him probably at
least twice as much taxable pro-
perty as he had heretofore. His
property values will be at least
doubled, under this new assess
ment. From his assessment he
cannot deduct his Indebtedness, as
can the man with bonds. notes and
money. The effect of this is bound
to be that the farmer will be taxed
on twice the amount of property
he was before. while money lender,
the corporations and the railroads
will not have their as 'essment
This piratioal scheme to plum
der the helpless farmer and equally |
helpless small home owner lie adj
vaneed as tax reform"
But Is the farmer and the home
owner HELPLESS?
Not while they may have their
ballots counted in the ballot box.
