POLITICAL BRIEFS

The editor of the Spokesman-Re-
view says: The Wall street CORE
spondent of the Spokesman-Review
says it is reliably reported there that
the Rockefeller Standard Oil inter-
ests have Increased their representa-
ton in the management of the
Northwestern and the Atchison
roads: that they nov control the
Union Pacific n expect to get the
Northern Pacific eventually, thus
largely debating western railroad
policy" The Spokesman-Review
knows hat George Turner. turner, is
the Spokane lawyer of the Rockefel-
lers and for years has been connected
with railway corporations. even to
the ownership Of part of me o
and the promotion OF another. ex-
pecting to draw $4,000 a year for his
services as general counsel. Yet the
Spokesman-Review wants the Rookie
Teller lawyer to name a railway COM
mission to control the Rockefeller
interests just now branching out in
this part of the country.
Two years ago George II. Steven
son and ex-Congressman w. II. Doc
little were branded as railroad lob
byists by the Turnerized Morning
Monopoly. Now, Stevenson is in his
underground passages manipulating
the dark-lantern end of the Turner
campaign and Doolittle Is on the
stump yelling for Turner and the
Morning Monopoly is cheering both
IN to the GLORIOUS work"
1t Is hardly probable that In two
years George ii. Stevenson, chief ad-
wiser to the Turner campaign in ways
hat are dark, could have changed
his political character very much.
Then the morning Turner-Cowles
publication said that ne owned a few
fish wheels oil the Columbia river
and spent h rest of his time trying
to corrupt public officials and candi-
dates. There must be something at
tractive about Mr.. S~tevenson's brand
of vice, for he has swung the charm
of hat awful attraction over both
Candidate Turner and Touter Cowles.
Stevenson was n force to be Stunned
two years ago because he welded for
evil the power of Hartman and the
o. II. & N; today, welding that same
power, he Ia welcomed by the Turner
cohorts In their hypocritical attempt
to fool the people.

1t required the state fair to bring
into prominence the fact that the larg-
est apple ever grown in the United
States is Colorado product. This
particular apple was grown in Mon
tezuma county. which section of the
state, incidentally is there with both
feet" The apple is of the Wolf River
variety. weighs S01a ounces, meas
ures l7A inches in circumference and
came into life on the ranch of n. r
Antes. From the state fair 1t will go
direct to the worlds fair at st. Louis,
where 1t will be exhibited and will in
all probability capture another prize
for Colorado fruit. The next largest
apple of which there is any record
weighed exactly one ounce less than
the prize beauty of Montezuma county.
In charge of the exhibit are Messrs

are extremely courteous and obliging
to visitors. Among the products of
the county are a number of Thunder
