Especial Dispatch to the Morning Journal !
Santa Fe, N. M, Aug. l5.-Judge A.
b Fall arrived in Santa Fe at noon
today from El Paso and during the
afternoon took the oath of office as
attorney general of New Mexico.
Judge Fall will return to El Paso at
once. where he expects to so arrange
his practice and business interests as
TO be able to take up his residence in
Santa Fe In the near future The as
sumption of office by Judge Fall and
the retirement of Attorney General
Prichard was entirely without cere-
mOny.
There Is much interest here in the
Santa Fe county district attorneyship,
which carries with 1t the position of
assistant attorney general. The resig-
nation of Mr.. X. c. GOrtner has not
been accepted and II is not expected
that a change will be made at once.
Ii Is understood that ID. j. Leahy of
Ration, at present assistant United
States attorney. has been rendered this
position, although there is no official
confirmation for this. 1t is also un-
derstood that friends of f. c. Abbott
of Santa Fe, and formerly district at
torney here, are urging him for the
place. Ii is still possible that a dark
horse will appear for tahis position.
Governor VIII Go TO Roswell.
uovernor curry WIFI leave FOR ftrbs-
well on the Goth. where he will at
tend the sessions of the New Mexico
Bar association. He viii be away for
several days. ] w. Reynolds has not
yet relinouished the office of secre-
tary. but ii Is probable that Mr.. Jaffa
will be here to take the office before
Governor Curry goes to Roswell.
While few additional changes may
be made in territorial officials, it is
not expected now that such changes
will occur pending the return of the
governor from Roswell.
Washington Men Still Busy.
In spite of rumors which have been
lndustriously circulated here by inter-
ested parties that the representatives
of the attorney general of the United
States had been recalled, the special
assistants are still busily at work. and
there Is no indication that there will
be any cessation of this work i'm the
Immediate future. Mr.. Ormsby Nc
Harg. who went to Washington sew
eral days ago on official business, is
expected to return in a few days.

UnIane SMIndIer Caught.

Moscow. Aug. 15.-rhe police have
caught an enterprising swindler who
invented a new method of making a
living. An inspector of police, In
casually passing down a street, noticed
a man pasting slips over Dotices of
public auctions and making alterations
in their dates
At first he did not interfere. but
fegspd that for considerable time he
had been altering the dates OF sales
ia this fashion. This enabled him to
attend the sales at the proper dates as
practically the only buyer when he
could secure goods az his own price
in the absence Of competition.

HOME OF THE RED APPLE
Diamond Is Seat of Immense
and Growing Industry.
Burreii Investment Co. Will Ship
80 Carloads This Season and
100 Carloads Next Season.

Diamond is hamlet eight miles west
OF COlfax on the 0. r & n. 1t is situated
on Rebel Flat $50 called) and is dis
tinguished for being in the center of tho
great wheat-grOwing section of the
PalOuse, besides containing within the
village limits the largest exclusive apple
orchard in Whitman county. 1t is with
this orchard that we wish to deal mainly
at this time. By way of premise we will
state that Diamond derives it's name from
Quinland Diamond whose old homestead
pre-emption and timber culture farms,
embracing several hundred acres, is now
covered by the tOwnsite and the big
apple orchard owned and operated by
the Burrell Investment Co. Dimond
came to the PalOuse country in 1871,
first settling in Pleasant Valley, but sub
sequentIy, in 1874, took up land in the
beautiful valley known as Rebel Flat ard
here made his home. He became involved
finan cially during the hard times in the
nineties and lost bis home, and departed
hence nine years ago, now living near
Republic. The town gets it's name from
him, and why the spelling has been
corrupted to " Diamond" and even
"Diamonds," on the railway station, it
is hard to understand. Dimond is the
name borne by many worthy people, is
good Anglo Saxon and is the way it
should be spelled Dimond's old -four

part of the country, is still standing, but
is now used as livery stable.

representative of The Gazette drove
to this beauty spot in nature last Sun
day, and for hours fingered in the shade
of the well-laden fruit trees and feasted
his eyes on the luscious fruit hanging
from thousands of limbs. The Burrell
Investment Company conceived the idea
several years ago of planting a nam
moth orchard, devoted exclusively to
apples, perceiving the adaptability of
the soil and climate for growing this
most useful of all fruits. Dmond's old
apple trees, gnarled and huge of body
and limb, still bearing noble fruit, told
plainly enough what could be done along
these lines, so work was commeuc d

men. Pickers are now wanted in this
orchard. At least 10 or II more could
be given employment. Apples are first
picked by hand from the lower limbs and
carefully placed in boxes A team and
wagon accompanies the pickers and
takes the fruit to the packing house
Subsequently ladders are used, and the
apples gathered from the upper limbs,
which are likewise carefully handled and
carted away. Those that fall to the
ground are called "culls" and find their
way to the waste heaps. 1t goes with
out saying that scores of bushels OF
apples go to these heaps that could be
used for domestic purposes if reached by
families near at hume, but are not
considered saiable if sent abroad None
but the best and most perfect are boxed
and shipped. 1t is the purpose of the
management next season to use these
"culls" to make cider and vinegar, hence
the great waste now seen will in a
measure be avoided.
Home Comforts Are There.
A large building houses the employees
connected with this industry 1t is neat
ness and convenience personifed. The
up stairs is devoted to bedrooms, where
the men sleep. Down stairs is the wait
ing and wash loom, dining room cap
able of seating 81 persons, and kitchen
containing modern range and patent
bake oven, where the best the market
affords is provided for all Mrs. Miller,
wife OF Foreman Miller, who has immed-
ate charge OF the working force in the
big orchard, looks after all these
matters. The young women who do not
have homes in the immediate neighbOr-
hood sleep in the Miller house, near at
hand, although everybody eats in the
dining room.
Cold, pure, delicious water is piped
from spring above and is distributed
to every part OF the place. Near this
spring brick cistern, cement lined, cap
able OF holding 5000 gallons, has been
built, which is kept full OF water at all
times. A porcelain bath tub has been
installed for the use of all. so that home
comforts are here found. A new barn,
50x56 feet, has been added this season.
Varieties of Winter Apples.
A walk through this large orchard at
this time is revelation to the visitor.
Here all the varieties of winter apples
are Bellfower, Rome Beauty, Yel-
low Newtown Pippin, Jonathan and Ar
kansas. They present a scene of wealth
and beauty not soon to be forgotten.
Columns could be written about them.
The fruitage from this orchard will go
to many distant points. One carload of
Bellfi0wers awaiting a car goes to Mon,
tana, another to North Dakota and still
another to New York city. The Newtown
Pippins go direct to London.
