SEEDLESS APPLE COMING.
Washington Orcharlist Predicts New
Variety Soon.

THE seedless apple will at no dis
tant day entirely supplant the pres
ent apple the same as the seedless
orange has taken the place of the
seeded orange, and in five years time
the people of the Wenatchee valley
will be planting this kind to the exclu-
sion of Others" says Walla Walla
dispatch.
This is the statement made by Jas.
w. Moody, until. recently secretary of
the Everett chamber of commerce and
present secretary of the Everett Fair
association. who has been in the city
the past week in attendance at the
Harvest festival.
Mr.. Moody says: 1.-THE seedless apple
is no longer an experiment. We have
now had for many years the seedless
orange and the seedless raisin. and
quite recently Mr.. Burbank has de-
veloped the pitless plum. Upon their
Introduction each of these fruits has
met with a certain amount of adverse
criticism but each has firmly estab-
ished itself in frNit culture. The
seedless orange has driven the other
varieties from the marker and the
seedless apple and pitless plum have
a similar future before them"

Francisco knows II. And that Is why
the city puts its faith in Heney and
believes that unless his hands are tied
by bosses and political machines, he
will punish its plunderers and blaze
the way for n march of civic decency.
viii he do it? Within the last two
years he has revolutionized the atti-
tude of public thought in the whole
northwest toward the federal statutes.
To appropriate government land is no
longer either safe or respectable.
Twenty-four months ago II was both.
If he has done this for the vast region
Of the Pacific, may he not do as much
for its metropolis?
Mr.. Heney, the man, has not an
imposing presence. He is of fair
stature, but rather slender. He Is
young, as age goes with men who have
accomplished much. being in his 46th
year. He has, too, the disadvantage
OF looking young. Smooth of face,
with his rather scanty hair parted in
the middle, with mild eyes peering out
through old-fashioned specs" his
appearance is not formidable or awe
inspiring He does not get results by
giving an impression of physical
force.
He does not talk much, but when
he does use his voice, what he says is
sharp and incisive. He goes right to
the point and keeps hammering un-
til something gives way. It would be
difficult to analyze the characteris-
tics that have won for him success at
, the bar. Perhaps his friends come
nearest to the truth when they say he
Is unswervingly faithful to his duty
and has that quality known in the
west as "stickatitiveness."
Mr.. Heney is product of the plains
the arid plains-and Of the stern
East Oregonian : E.O. (Pendleton, OR) 1888-current, 1906-11-06

Sierras. He has much Of the tenacity
of the metals that are taken from
these rugged ranges; much of the har-
diness Of the cactus and the sage
brush; much of the whitening dryness
of the alkali winds Of the desert-so
those who engage in. court colloquy
have found.
He is a native of California and re-
ceived most OF his education I'm San
Francisco. Before he had reached
manhood, however, his constitution
gave way under the stress of too close
study and he went to Arizona in quest
of health. He went about the matter
in a business-like and practical way.
Mounted on a mustang he rode
straight to the cattle country, applied
himself diligently to the hard work of
the cowboy, lived in the open air
practically all the time, and after
few years became robust.
Fearing TO return to the seacoast,
however, he took up his residence in
Tucson and there practiced law, meet
ing with quick recognition and ad-
vanclng rapidly in the limited field of
his activities At the age of 35 he,
was made attorney general of the ter
ritory and won such popularity that
If Arizona had been admitted as a
state when Utah was admitted, he
almost certainly would have been
United States senator.
At the close of his term as govern
ment officer at Tucson, Mr.. Heney re-
turned to San Francisco and con-
tinued there for 10 years the practice
of his profession. He showed the
highest qualities of courage and eff
cheney and attained such standing
that when the Washington admins
tration came to realize that 1t had
serious business on its hands in the
land fraud investigation, Philander c..
Knox, who then was attorney general,
sought him out and asked him to as
sumo the heavy task of bringing the
offenders to justice. He accepted,
although at the cost of a lucrative
practice which he had built up, and
| entered upon the duties of the mean
ly paid post of special assistant attor-
ney general.

Rnssian Election Plans.

ST. Petersburg. Nov. 6.-The legal
izing of the Octobrest and Regenera-
ton parties has been admitted in an
official statement issued today. In
the course of heightened explanation
the premier lays the blame for the
non-issuance of the order on st.
Petersburg police official who up to
the present was acting without con-
sulting the authorities. According to
the senator's Interpretation of the
election law the revision of the election
lists is being proceeded with, but
doubt prevails as to whether the
elections can be held before the end OF
December. Red tape, obstruction and
a total disregard of the rights of the
people prevail and Mr.. Solkoff, who
has been exiled, and now living in
Berlin, states that with pressure the
government could be forced to fix
the elections for January IA, the Rus
sian new year.

A CLOSE VIEW. OF HENEY, LAND FRAUD
PROSECUTOR

The name of Francis ]. Heney will
always have a place in Oregon history
and everything written about the
fearless prosecutor is fascinating to
the reading public of oregon.
The following excellent sketch is
from the Chicago Record-Herald
"Heney-he makes good" In these
four words the Pacific coast epito-
mizes its estimate of one who Is to that
section what Joseph w. Folk is to
Mississippi valley, or what Charles %.
Hughes Is to the east. This charac-
terization sums up the man and his
deeds. 1t is homely, but more elo-
quent than columns of eulogy. 1t Is
short. but more comprehensive than
volumes of biography.
Francis ]. Heney is the personifca-
tion of tho spirit of '49," the man to
whom San Francisco, recovering
from dire affliction TO find the mons
ter of municipal graft squatted inso-
lently in its ashes, looks as an aven-
ger and as n leader to better condi-
barrister Is he who has been placed
in entire control of the Doodle inves-
tigation which promises to land on the
rocks of San Quentin many OF the Of
ficials who have debauched the city
of the Golden Gate and who have
grown rich on their plunder, but he
has a record of achievement that has
endeared him to all lovers of good
government in the far west as much
as It has gained him the hatred of
betrayers of public trust.
Mr.. Heney is a national figure. He
gained his fame as the Nemesis of the
land grabber. He II was who brought
TO book In California and Oregon the
notorious gangs of office holding,
party leading looters of the public do
main-men who pried loose from the
heritage of the people" as neatly as
with a burglars Jimmy, no lots or
acres or quarter sections, but square
miles of valuable lands. who annexed
to their Individual holdings tracts as
large as some of the states of the
union, and all through the most bare
faced frauds.
This nervy advocate tackled single
handed a system that was backed by
large part of the. political, business
and social structure of the great EN-
pire that lies along the Pacific ocean;
that had ramifications in federal
state and county offices throughout
that section and even at the seat OF
the national government itself; that
had political and financial power
practically without limit. And he
won.
When he came to cast up accounts
he had procured the convection ant

The Hood River Glacier saw that
since apple growers have commenced
to ship apples and are finding out
that their crops are much larger than
at first estimated, those who ought to
know say that the number Of boxes of
apples this year will be in excess of
the figures first given out for this
years crop.
Altogether the number of boxes
that have or will be made for Hood
Rivers big crop of fruit will foot UP
in the neighborhood of 100000. This
is between $4,000 and 5000 more
than it was at first thought would be
the figures. A 100000 box crop will
be almost double the amount of apples
ever shipped from Hood River before
one of the obstacles that has had
to be overcome this year and that will
become more important each year as
more orchards come into bearing is
to provide a means of transportation
from the orchard to the railroad. At
present every available team and
wagon thatscan be secured is engaged
In hauling apples and even with all
| the facilities that the valley now pos
| sesses the fruit is not coming in as
fast as II should. In order to haul the
crop this year it is thoughr that it will
require at least 1000 teamioads. The
ranchers have found that they are un-
able to cope with the situation and
have engaged transfer companies to
haul their apples for them. One man
who has $4,000 boxes of apples figures
that It will cost him something like
$500 to have them brought in. The
ordinary rancher's apple wagon will
not hold more than 40 or so boxes of
apples, but the big wagons used by
the transfer companies which have
four-horse teams can haul about 100
boxes.
1t is pointed out that before next
year something will have to be done
to render it possible to bring the ap-
pies in more rapidly. Some growers
who have but 5000 or 1000 boxes this
year expect next year to have twice
that many and even more. With A.
600 wagon loads this year It is possi-
BILE that the number will be double
next year and means that 1t will fur.
nish work for many teams and mer
for several weeks.
The shipment of apples during the
past week has averaged from four to
five cars a day. A numper of cars
have been shipped from the east side
over Mount Hood railroad to the
warehouses here, where they have
been repacked and shipped to their
destination. The union has received
an order for between 20 and 80 cars
of Newtons from a large commission
firm in New York in addition to the
large consignment to Loomis & Co,
but as yet it is not known whether
they can be supplied.
While many growers have enor-
nous yields of Newtons, the banner
crop, so far, has been reported by L.
Struck, who will average s14O0 an
acre from three acres of these pro-

In the senate Senator Tillman made
an appeal for the consideration Of the
conference report on the railroad rate
bill.

land it should not take long to do
that
Senator Hale said he would give
way if the conference report could be
disposed of without debate and If
there could be assurance that all the
new matter would be eliminated from
the bill
Mr.. Tillman objected to having the
conferees instructed and at last the
South Carolina senator moved to pro-
ceed to the consideration of the report
on the rate bill
There was no objection to the
presentation of the motion and it pre-

said he desired to speak only three
minutes, but Senators Foraker and

Whereupon Mr.. Hale sought to cut Mr..
Tillman off with a motion to take up
an appropriation bill Mr. Tillman,
however, insisted upon holding the
floor and proceeded by calling atten-
tion to the changes made by the con-
ferees. He said they were made only
for the purpose of making the bill
clearer.
Mr.. Tillman closed by moving to dis
agree to the report, thus sending it
back to conference. Senator Hale met
this motion with motion to take up
the naval bill Senators Elkins and
Nelson insisted on making point Of
order against Mr.. Hale's motion, but
the chair overruled them. The mo-
tion to take up the naval bill then pre-
