Is an authority on everything relating
to fruit growing and the nursesy
business, is enthusiastic over the
prospects the Spokane valley has Of
becoming one of the greatest fruit
districts in the country.
II believe this section of the coun-
try will become a great center for the
raising of winter apples" said Mr.
Peaslee. THE altitude and the water
are here and the impetus that has
been given to the fruit growing in =
dustry within the last year, will,
think, do much for this section. One
hundred and fifty thousand winter ap-
pie trees have been sent out to Eden
dale this spring and two car loads at
Hayden lake. In fact all the new dis
tricts that are being opened are
going in largely for winter apples.
This is true not only in the Spokane
but also in the Sweetwater country.
Three thousand acres In the vicinity
OF Lewiston and Charleston have re-
Gently been opened up and nearly the
whole OF this vast acreage will be
given up to the growing OF winter ap-
pies. Down In the Kennewick region
the fruit men are going heavily into

are confident that the grape growing
industry will assume vast proper

Welded BLISS IN SPRING.

NOW soon the single man may stand
Aloof, with merry smile,
AS with shinney stick In hand
The married man the while
Beats carpets hung rpon the line
And beats them win a will
OF welded bliss tina seems so fine
In spring he gets Ills flll
At early morn and twilights close
The married man must go
where doomed the poppy and the rose,
And with a swinging blow
He'll fill the garden air with dust
And strain his weary back
For married men in springtime must
Pursue the beaten track
And, though his hands are blistered sore
What though his arms are lame
Ihe.rug that hides the parlor floor
He still must beat the same
Ana, though his eyes are filled with dust
His muscles racked with pain.
The married man in springtimc must
Beat on with might and main
And so the single man may stand
Aloof, with merry smile
For everywhere throughout the land
All married men the while
Are beating carpets night and day
(Such tasks the single miss).
With every blow they seem to say,
who named 1t welded biss?"

Adolph G. kaufman, an Olympia

afterwards took a course of cleo
trical engineering in Berlin, has per-
fected an instrument, already demon
strated to be success, called the
Telemegaphone. AS it's name indi-
Gates, it is devise for transferring
sound, and has been found of excel
lent service in the Grand Central
railroad station, New York, in an
lnouncing the arrival and departure
of trains simultaneously all over the
grounds. 1t is likewise serviceable
in large stores where announcements
may be made by switches to any de-
partment, or to all at once, by a
series of switches. The sound is car
ried by wire and electrical current,

Swan saw fit to resort to criminal
proceedings against Street Com
missioner Lybarger, for opening
Fourteenth street, leading to the
hoffman property, located on Capt.
tol Hill, when civil remedy by in.
junctive relief was open to him in the
lcourts, of which he has availed him
self after having been better advised.
These prosecutions for trespass toe
frequently result in fizzles, making
the county unnecessary costs, and IN
the end fail to effect definite results
Mr.. Swan doubtless thinks he has
grievance, and that his private prop
erty interests have been invaded
On general principles it is not wist
to invoke criminal process for thu
redress of private grievances. The
STANDARD is advised that temper

is likely to be continued till the de
