THE FRUIT
SITUATION
ANOTHER BIG CROP WITH IN
CREASED SHIPMENTS. - FAIR
PRICES.-APPLE CROP 80 PER
YEAR.

In order to ascertain the general
condition of the fruit crop the Daily
World has just completed an inspec-
ton of the orchards of the valley,
and, together with the reports of the
fruit men, it is evident that there
will be more fruit shipped from We
natchee this year than ever before.
From as far as can be ascertainei
the crop will be an average one, but
the increased acreage will bring the
figures higher in the total amounts.
According to M. o. Tibbitts, presi-
dent of the Wenatchee Valley Fruit
Growers association, the amount of
summer fruit this year has far ex-
ceeded that of any other year.
The prospects on the apple crop
are that it will exceed by thirty per
cent that of last year, this being due
to the many acres that are just COM

II dreams count for anything, Joe
Rogers and John Keegan, are In
danger of being blown to the top Of
the mountains by the terrihlc force

Several of the boys have been

pictured the well men thrown out to

At any rate, things look hopeful.

Joe Rogers in speaking of the

but that things are favorable to a

that until very recent date the water

complainant.
1t is denied that under the plans of

priated which belonged to the plaintiff.

DECISION
EXPLAINED

The intent of the decision in the
pineapple appeal cases, which was
handed down from the Supreme Court
yesterday, has been made clear and it
turns out that the Territory won an
almost complete victory. According
to this the canneries are not ex-
empt from taxation, nor are the grow
ing crops. The only exemptions all
lowed are for the forty acres of land
for each individual or corporation in
the business, which includes the grow
ing crop thereon and for such personal
property as is used Immediately in
connection with the growing of fruit.
This will include only mules, tools
and like property.
The attention of the pineapple grow
ers is called to the paragraph of the
decision in which it is held that only
personal property actually used in
the production of pineappIes is ex-
empt, and to the fact that this does
not include the fruit itself.

BAPTIST PARSONS
FLAY DIVORCE EVIL
Characterized as Progressive Poly
gamy" in Resolution Adopted
by Churchmen.
AT BAY CITIES CONFERENCE
Association Urges Ministers to Refrain
From Marrying Divorced
People.

O. OAKLAND, Sept. %. - The San
Francisco Baptist association, COM
posed of pastors and lay delegates from
the Baptist churches of the bay cities,
has gone on record as opposed to dt-
vorce, except upon scriptural grounds,
and has adopted a resolution urging
Baptist cergymen to refrain from
marrying persons who have been di-
vorced for any cause other than That
which holds authority in the bible.
Protest was made against the loose
ness of the divorce laws of the state,
which, the association declares, created
a condition of progressive polygamy."
The author of the attack upon the
divorce evil was Rev. j. b. Travis,
pastor of Bethel Baptist church of San
Francisco. His resolution was as fol-
lows:
Believing that the home is ordained
of God, and believing further that any
agency tending toward its overthrow
is vicious and to be opposed, we here
by protest against the immoral, indie
cent and unholy ease with which the
marriage tie is dissolved in this state
virtually creating a condition, in many
instances, of progressive polygamy
"And further, we hereby unite oui
influence with that of every institution
seeking to restrict the issuance of di.
vorce to strictly scriptural grounds
calling upon our pastors not to Off.
ciate at the false marriage of divorc
| ed persons"
Following the presentation of tn,
resolution at the closing session of tht
association at the Tenth Avenue Bap
fist church discussion was had, TIT
sentiment being unanimous in favor o
the drastic action. The resolution de
clares that Baptist ~clergyman shoulc
not officiate at the marriage of an!
divorced person, but it is taken to ex
clude one who has obtained a lega
separation on "scriptural grounds,
this being recognized in the resolution
Rev. Mr.. Travis is vice moderator o
the association.

EDMUNDS ACT
PROBLEM BEFORE
TWO COURTS
THE QUESTION SHOULD APPLIED TERRIFIC
RIAL COURTS BECOMING THAN ONE CASE
HUMPHREYS CLAIMS LOCAL LAWS ON SAME SUBJECT
t...." tA
INVALID.

The Edmunds Act is receiving its
full amount of attention in both Fed
eral and Territorial Courts at present.
At present there is the Blanche Martin
case before the Territorial Supreme
Court in which Judge Humphreys, the
attorney for the defendant, claims that
the Territorial law is invalid, on ac-
count of the fact that the Edmunds
Act has full swing. Deputy Attorney
General Whitney, for the Territory,
claims that the Edmunds Act is not
valid in this Territory. Deputy County
Attorney Milverton, also for the Ter
ritory, held that the two laws had
concurrent action.
The latest miX-up however, comes
from the office of U. S. District Attor-
ney Breckons who stated this morning
that he was about to perfect an APP
peal from the decision of Judge Dole
in the Edmunds Act case against Man
uel Perez and Augusta Walsh. In this
decision was brought forth by plea
in bar entered by the attorney for the
defendants, who held that since his
clients had been already tried before

the Territorial court for the offence
they could not be tried under Federal
law This view was sustained by Judge
Dole in the following decision, now
being appealed from:
although the same act may consti-
tute an offence both against the Unit
ed States and one of its States and
he punished independently by each
Government, the same rule does not
hold good as to an act which is an
offence against The United States and
one of its Territories, in that the gov
eminent of Territory, unlike State,
derives its powers from the United
States. ~
1T therefore follows that an acquittal
or conviction in a court of the Terri
tory of Hawaii on a charge OF adultery
which is an offence in all the Terri
tories of the United States by the Fed.
eral laws, and in the Territory of Ha.
wall by continuance in force of the
law of the Republic of Hawaii on the
subject by Congress in the Organi Act
is bar to the trial of the same charge
in the Federal Court of such Terri.
