say that this resolution asks for moth
ing but what is right. Any company
that puts money into an irrigation
plant should have fair compensation.
But such companies should be subject
to law, and where there is DISPOSE
ton to take the users by the throat
and hold them up for all they can get
they should be treated as all other rob-
bers Nothing but vigilance will save
the people from being injured in some
cases. Corporation greed is one of
the things to be feared in all the pur-
suits of life.
Speaking of corporation greed re-
minds me to say word about the trou-
BILE that the orange and lemon growers
are having in California. An organi-
cation started few years since calling
itself the California Fruit Agency.
There is nothing alarming about such
a title. Things ran on smoothly for
time and this agency grew to great
proportions, and to some extent grew
insolent. 1t was finally discovered that
this agency had grown to be verita-
BILE octopus and was sucking the life
out of the growers of citrus fruits.
The lions share of the profits was
going into the tills of the agency, so it
is claimed This very naturally raised
opposition and other corporations be-
gan to spring up with a view of han
ding some of The fruits in the orange
and lemon regions. But this agency
that was growing fat at the expense OF
the growers would have none Of this.
What was to be done? Could not any
man or set of men ship fruit if SO dis
posed? But the great octopus said:
mot if the court understands herself,
and she thinks she do When or
anges or lemons were shipped through
any other agency the big company fol-
lowed with shipments and undersold
their competitors to such an extent
that they had to quit. This is not a
disputed point, for the president of the
great corporation admits that this has
been done, and tries to defend the
course on the ground that where his
company had gained market they
have a perfect right to keep others
QUIT The matter has gone into the
courts and the results are watched
with interest. Whatever the outcome
may be, the whole proceeding shows
what men will do to gain selfish ends,
if not restrained by the strong arm of
the law.

There are intimations that the apple

There are limitations that the apple
shippers association of this country
is making an effort to control the
trade. That would be a calamity with
untold mischief. The apple growers
are organizing with view to counter
acting some things done by this asso-
citation of shippers. One of the bane-
full things done by this apple shippers
association is to publish an early state
ment of the apple crop. The purpose
is to make it appear that there is
much larger crop than there is, so as
to depress the prices. After the bulk
of the crop has been purchased and is
in the hands of the association, presto!
it is discovered that the crop is not as
big as estimated, when up goes the
price and "the money comes tumbling
into the pockets of the shipping
trust.
Frequently there are false ideas as
to the profits of fruit raising and the
result is disappointment, when there is
no just occasion for it. Some men are
given to eXaggeratiOn and when they
write about growing fruit they do not
forget their cunning. Such men may
mean no harm and do not intend to
exaggerate, but fall into such course
from the natural drift of their tempera-
ment. Recently | read cOmmunica-
ton from a government official in
which he states that certain man
had sold 81, 400 worth of fruit from two
acres of ground. About one-half acre
was in strawberries and the amount
realized on their sale was $500. There
may be one man in ten thousand that
can do that, but the average man can
not The trouble about such reports is
that those who read them and have no
experience in fruit growing will get the
impression that this can be easily done.
When they try they will miserably fail,
and never once understand the cause
of failure. 1t is far better for the man
beginning the fruit growing business to
have quite moderate ideas, and then he
will be much less likely to be discou,
aged with moderate results. l waT

about fruit growing not long since,

To tell you about the Majestic
Cooking Exhibit we had from the
oath to the 29th of October. It
was the same old success, as we
sold twelve Of the Majestic Steel
Ranges In one week that's not
SO bad and we have many good
prospects for more sales.
Remember the Majestic is the
only range on the market with
malleable top that you can't
break, and it will not warp. 1t
has 100 pounds of iron in the fire
box alone, and same is in sections
and any one can replace it. The
sides and oven is made of number
is boiler steel, riVeted with soft
riyets, the oven is made in sec
tions, not in one piece, and will
not warp out Of shape, also the
oven is braced and riveted. No
fancy work on the Majestic, it
is the plain old time Majestic,
built to give satisfaction and last.

JUDGE is PUZZLED.
Fails to Understand Why Tramps Are
Detained Here.

Judge O'Neal says he is at a loss to un-
derstand why tramps who are leaving the
city are arrested and brought back to be
housed and fed at the expense of the local
taxpayers. Last week a number of such
persons were taken from outgoing trains or
Off the road and brought back. This morn
ing the court inquired why Samuel Smiley
had not been permitted to pass through the
city. Sam arrived in the city yesterday
morning and said he was on his way to an
other jurisdiction. All Policeman Weber
knew of him was that he asked for some
thing to eat.
Sam" said Judge O'Neal. "how long did
you intend to remain here?'
Only as long as 1t took me to go through
the city, was his response.
How long will it take you to put the city
behind you if L let you go?
Just long as it will take me to walk
across the line
He thereupon discharged.
James Dixon colored, another stranger I'm
the city, was next called upon to respond to
a charge of vagrancy. He was arrested at
Terra Gotta last night. His statement was
that he came here from Philadelphia and
was given employment at Terra Gotta. He
was told that he might sleep there during
the night and go to work this morning.
IF you have work." the court told him.
II am not going to send you to the work
house."
He was discharged.

THREE SMALL FIRES.
Local Department Called Out to Subdue
Flames Today.

Three calls were made on the fire de-
partment this forenoon, but not much
damage was done. The most disastrous
of the three CONGREGATIONS occurred at
927 New York avenue about 1880 o'clock.
An overheated furnace caused the blaze
in the second story of the building and
about 5000 damage was done.
About 8 80 o'clock the department went
to the house Of James Streets, 1920 Mar
ion street, where children playing with
matches had caused a blaze. The house
was not damaged. but about so damage
was caused to clothing.
An hour later call came from box 623
and was turned in because of a blaze in
the Baltimore and Ohio railroad watch
box at the Massachusetts avenue cross
ing. The fire was caused by an overhead
ed stove. The firemen prevented the
spreading of the blaze to the sheds con-
tanning valuable material for use in the
construction of the new union station.
