Gives His Experience to the
People Of the State

EDITOR THE DAWN: With YOUR
permission, let NJ. say few words
to the fruit growers and those that
expect to become fruit growers in
this beautiful valley and surround
ing footing foothills, knowing as |
do, that Kittitas valley surpasses
any locality in the Northwest for
the growing OF the winter apple
and the Bartlett pears.
Several fruit tree agents are IN
the field canvassing for stock, and
now is the time you may make a
serious mistake.
First you want to learn some
thing YOU never heard Of, that you
are likely 70 learn Of later on il you
are a close observer. the kind Of
land your trees do the best on, the
variety best adapted to this, that or
another kind OF soil, how much
water the trees require and no more.
Don't let the agent talk you into
doing this or that thing when you
should know OF yourself they are
all nice fellows and know their
songs.
You often hear a man say: You
want only three or four varieties OF
apples in an orchard" 1t is COM
mon thing thing to hear fruit buy
ers complain OF too many varieties.
havs heard this cry for more than
forty years, but have given it little
heed, good apples being my guide.
If know the apple is good one,
good thrifty grower, set it out
and another, another and another,
but they must all be hrstclass ap-
pies OF different varieties, and I
have never had any trouble to sell
my fruit. l have heard men say
that were we'll versed in botany
advocate the three or four variety
system Of putting out an orchard.
For convenience l would suggest
in putting out commercial orchard
to plant every other row a different
variety, of good, very good apple,
and so on through the entire orch
ard, paying no attention to the
number OF varieties. It is best,
however, to have all the rows
planted to one variety, as in prun-
they will be the same all the way
through. You will understand
that about half of the apple trees
are non pollenizers, while the other
may be perfect pollenisers or piste-
lates, and others may be stamanate
varieties, or, in other words, the
two different varieties may be
male and female. By selecting good
varieties and enough of each to fill
a row, you may have your pollens-
ing varieties scattered evenly, and
while in bloom every non-polenzing
tree may be properly polenised,
which warrants beautiful yield.

SO far we have had nothing
to say regarding the location of the
Milwaukee road. Our contention
personally and individually has
been this: If the physical condi-
tons were right, Ellensburg would
get it without an effort, and if such
conditions were not right, all the
money and influence Ellensburg
could raise and bring to bear on
the Milwaukee people would
amount to nothing.
THE sentiment voiced by Senator
Stone in his recent speech in the
senate on the money question, is to
our mind and way of thinking,
about the right way to look at the
question. We are opposed tc
granting uat.oua. banks any more
power than they now possess. II
clearing house certificates are good
greehbacks are better. Clearing
house certificates have banks be-
hind them. Treasury notes, COM
monty called greenbacks, have the
government behind them.

GETS NEW TRIAL
Zion City Fanatic Will Probably Escape
AS Witnesses Are Gone


Harold Mitchell, convicted murderer
of Mrs. Letitia Greenhalgh Of Zion City
by alleged fanatical faith healing prac-
tices, got the one best valentine in
Waukegan Friday when new trial was
granted him.
~Coincident with the announcement OF
the new trial comes the news that the
Greenhalghs, Adam, the father, Walter
the son, and Jennie, the daughter, have
vanished from Zion City for parts IN
known and will not return.
Mrs. Schmidt has also gone, to some
southern state, it is said, and will never
be seen again.
This means Mitchell's eventual free
dom, 1t is said, as his wife can not tes-
tify against him and remaining wit
nesses are unimportant. There are said
to be three witnesses ready 80 impeach
William Smith if he takes the stand.
This morning the counsel for Mitchell
announced that before tomorrow after
noon they would have bail for Mitchell
and he would be walking the streets
Of Waukegan free man.
The bonds required by the court
amount to $4,000, and it is claimed that
several Zion residents have offered to
go his bail.

feiter Held BY Court in Milwaukee

Irving Spencer Clope the Racine man
arrested in Kenosha week ago on a
charge of having moulds for counter
teit coin in his possession had hear
ing before United States Court Com
missioner Bloodgood in Milwaukee,
Friday afternoon and was held for
trial in the United States Court under
bonds of thousand dollars. He re-
turned to jail. It was expected that
Clope would make fight when arraign-
ed for preliminary hearing but when
the hearing was called he gave the Of
ficials a surprise by waving examina-
ton. Clope still insists that he is inno-
cent Of any wrong doing and that the
moulds which he had in his possession
were being used simply for experiment
tai purposes and that he had no intention
Of making or attempting to pass coun-
terfeit coin. The United States Of
fcials who have been at work on the
case declare that they are finding a
great deal of evidence against the man
and that when the case is heard in court
they will have strong case against
him.

lFrom SATURDAYS Daily.l


The first Wisconsin action in the work
incident to the receivership Of the Chi.
cago and Milwaukee Electric railway
which has been the chief source of inter
est in Chicago financial circles fol-
several weeks, was taken before Judge
Belden Of the Circuit Court Of Racine
when judgment by default was entered
against A. @. Frost personally and as
president Of the Chicago and Milwaukee
Electric railway and Of the Republic
Construction company, on two judgment
notes bearing dates respectively Of July
IL and September 3, 1907, and aggre-
eating $85, CASH..
The plaintiff in the action was the
Metropolitan Trust and Savings Bank
Of Chicago to which Frost on July II
gave a judgment note for $4,000 Sc
cured by $4,000 Of the first mortgage
gold bonds of the Chicago and Milwau-
kee Electric railway and again on
September 3 gave similar note fol
$4,000 secured by $4,000 worth Of the
same collateral.
The larger note was signed by A. O.
Frost as president Of the Republic Con
struction company and also by him per
sonally, while the smaller one bore his
personal signature together with his sig
nature as president Of the Chicago and
Milwaukee road.
Judgment On both notes was taken
by default, Frost nor either Of his com
panies being represented. AS a matter
Of legal form, however, Attorney John
Leigler Of Racine, was appointed by the
court and appeared for the defense
while Judge Flett and Chicago attor-
neys represented the plaintiff bank.
A transcript Of both jugments was
Immediately taken and was fled in
Kenosha County today.
AS a result of the action it is expect
ed that foreclosure proceedings will be
Immediately brought against the stock
of the road held by Frost and given by
him as collateral security on the notes
in question, which will leave him
with but small portion Of his original
interest in the enterprise.
The Republic Construction company
as president Of which Frost signed the
$4,000 note on July y, is subsidiary
company Of the railroad and has its
principal works at HorHcksville near
the Rapids, where a year ago Frost
purchased the old Horlick stone quarry
and erected thereon one of the most
modern and complete stone crushing
plants in the northwest

claimed that he had no money in his
possession, and was instructed to go to
the police station. At that office he met
Sergeant Martin johnson to whom he
related his predicament.
Johnson was not acquainted with the
man who claimed to have had as much
as $15 when he left Kenosha yesterday
morning. When the Kenosha man made
a touch for "bed y money johnson

the police officer as security, whereupon
Johnson gave him dollar with which
