FRUIT EMPRESS INCREASE.
Actual Weight of 629,531 Pounds for
Business During the Month of
August.

Fruit shipments from North Yaki-
ma by express amounted to 629, 531
pounds in August, an increase of
about 230, 900 pounds over the same
month in 1907 and about two-thirds
of the actual express shipments from
the local station throughout the en-
tire season of 1906.
The express consisted Of nearly all
the varieties of fruits grown in the
neighborhood of the city, and a
small amount of oranges, bananas
and lemons that were handled
through the local wholesale houses
for valley points. There were &c.
2OS packages. as against 14,S11 in
1907; and 629,531 pounds as against
.397,266 for the same month last
year. Part of this difference is ac-
counted for by the systematic weigh
ing this year, while last season the
packages were all shipped at stat
ed weights.
The statistics compiled by Agent
Smith for the August business shows
the following:

irrigation of the great valley, and
predicted further progress as new
lands were brought under canals. He
also devoted some time to talk to
the young men and young women
present.
The congressman, who was intro
duced as "our future SENATOR" by
w. H. Cline, refrained from any dis
cusson of politics. He was warmly
received by the audience.
The Sunnyside fair this year proved
a great success, both in attendance
and in exhibits. Friday, the closing
day, was marked by the largest at
tendance and the greatest interest.

cipal of the Granger schools and is
one of the best known educators of
the lower valley. She received ex-
ceptionally strong support in the pri-
maries and when the first returns
came in it was expected that her
nomination would be shown in the
complete count.
Miss Brown was visitor in North
Yakima Saturday and when asked
as to her candidacy. said:
81 have been asked by so many
people to enter the race as an indie
pendent candidate that I have decid-
ed to do so. probably would not
have considered running in the cleo

Judge Preble Orders Placing of Name

W. H. Cline of Sunnyside was de-
clared on Saturday by Judge Preble
to be the regular republican nominee
for representative in the state legis-
lature, the request being made by
Attorneys Englehart & Rigg for Alex
E. McCredy that the decree be entered

basis of the recent recount in which
Cline made gains in West Sunnyside.

There was some talk OF further
contest over the returns from the
West Sunnyside precinct, where there
We're technical errors of non-certif-
cation of the returns and improper
sealing of the various ballot pack
ages. McCredy decided that this
would not be the right kind OF a step
to take, as the choice of the people
had been shown. and did not even
ask for a recount in other precincts,
through which he might nave gained
few votes.

AT NATIONAL CONvEN TON
Postal Savings Also Overwhelmingly
Defeated Despite Minority
Protests.

DENVER, Sept. 2s.-The most
Important discussion in the savings
bank section of the American Bank
ers association occurred at the after
noon session when the question 81
postal savings was taken up. While
1t was evident that the sentiment was
practically unanimous against postal
savings and overwhelmingly against
guarantee idea, respectable mi
nority tried to prevent any action on
the latter qeustion, contending that
It was a matter for the convention Of
all the members of the convention to
decide and not for any one section.
This the minority failed to accom-
plish and a resolution condemning
the idea was adopted.
The clearing house section also held
its convention this afternoon. Be-
sides the report of the secretary and
routine work there were several adj
dresses and the matter of bank guar
antee was also brought up and con-
demned.

v.rmont,a RaIIroad commIssIon

The Springfield Republican has the
following conservative reference to
the Vermont railroad commission:
Il is quite possible that an injustice
has been done the present railroad
commission of Vermont In mentioning
II along with the railroad commission
OF New Hampshire as body under
the supervision of the railroads rather
than as body in supervision over the
railroads. Not much more than that
could be said of the Vermont commits
sion, but attention is called to the fact
that the statutes enacted by the last
Legislature have changed decidedly
the attitude OF the state In relation
to the public control of these public
service corporations.
The Vermont railroad commission,
consisting Of three members, is now
possessed Of the powers OF court OF
record both at law and equity. 1t Is
given general supervision OF all rail-
ways within the state. 1t is empower
ed to look after the issue of new secui
tiles to the end OF preventing overcap-
itulation. 1t has jurisdiction over
rates and fares to the end of prevent
ing unreasonable charges and II may
name rates which are deemed reason
able. The new Vermont law also
goes ahead OF Massachusetts In apply
ing a general prohibition against the
issue OF free passes; 1t commands full
publicity Of rates and charges, and fix
es penalties of both fine and imprison
ment for Rotating and other forms of
discrimination; it subjects express
and parlor sleeping car companies to
the same supervision as railroads and
in other respects comes up 70 the
measure of regulation provided by the
new federal rate act, with perhaps a
better agency for giving its provisions
force and effect that exists under the
interstate railroad law.
The present Vermont railroad com
mission is composed of John W. Red.
lmond of Newport. ELI II. Porter of
Wilmington and s. HOLSTER Jackson
Of Barre. 1t has yet to prove its cap
acity under the new law as a watchful
just and effective guardian of the pub
lie interests. but certainly no reason
so far exists for supposlng that the
state Of Vermont continues as of old
under the full domination of the rail
roads.

here Saturday forenoon as the result
of the electrical storm, which visited
the village about a. m. The lightn.

near Che highway and tore up the
ground badly. The telephone wires
were close by and this was the cause
of all the trouble. Only four local

MASONIC TEMPLE TAXES
Long Controversy Ended by Payment
to Constable

Burlington, July 25.-.The long con-
troverted taxes on the Masonic temple
were paid yesterday to Constable N.
c. Florence under protest by Grand
Treasurer G. w. Whitcomb of the
Grand Lodge of Vermont, the amount
including costs, is $2543.S4. The de-
lay In payment was ON the grounds
that the organization was a most char
table one. The property has been ad.
vertlsed for sale at public auction and
the sale has been twice postponed this
summer. The last postponement be-
ing today. The trustees can now take
the question to the courts IL they so
desire. The taxes were for the years
1906 and 1907.
