SHADY IMPROVEMENT
 OF CANTALOUPE TRADE

The recent rains in this section of the valley, it is understood have caus- ed what is known as the second crop of.cantaloupes to mature much earlier than would have been the case, had the rains not appeared. Larger ship ments are being sent-out daily, as a consequence. Up to Wednesday even ing 1O5 cars had been sent out and ten more were loaded at the depot yester- day.
 Better prices prevail in the eastern markets where the melons are being boiled Eighty-four cents was realized on the last few lots that have reached there It is expected that prices will steadily climb over and above this, and that before the season is over climb as good as those eceived last year by the producers here will be paid.
 No harm has resulted from the rains in this district, as regarding the mel ons. the only tendency in this direction being the fact that they are ripening a little more rapidly than during the dry weather.
 In the matter of grapes, the seventh ear will be sent out this morning. The grape packing is going on steadily, and the big clusters of Thompson Seedless are realizing fine prices on the eastern markets. Many of the residents here have taken advantage of securing the grapes at the vineyards. While these are not in a good condition to ship, are perfect both for table use and preserv ing. and many are being disposed of in this manner.

templating a change of location with lots are selling rapidly at a good fig ure and are in big demand. The day the party spent there, half a dozen transactions aside from their own were made. The town has an excel lent water system and is well lighted. Water and electric lights, says Mir. Nielsen, are cheaper there than here and Tempe regards itself as an exam pie to be followed by other towns in this respect. The town is growing rapidly and there is every reason to believe that no better opportunity is offered hereabouts ion an investment than in SascO property. Of course, property in a new town of this kind is usually regarded as a risky specula- ton but the natural advantages for a shelter at that place are such that one can be operated on a paying basis when others would lose money.
 Between Red Rock and Maricopa the party saw and was in plenty of rain. For a while the desert looked like a big lake.

FULLBACK RAIDER
IN COACHING TOGS
Crack Player Will Help His Col

Washington State College, Pull
man, Nov. 2.-The State college now
has a student assistant coach, Ralph
RAIDER, last years fullback on the
football team, having been appoint
ed to assist Coach Rheinschild in
turning out team this year. Al
though the papers have not yet been
signed, the appointment has come d.
rect from the faculty athletic COM
mittee. and RAIDER has been coaching
for some days past.
That RAIDER is great success as
coach, is evident from the manner
in which he has already taken hold
of the second team. Not only is his
the student body and with the ath-
letes, but it is felt t:lat this action
will materially help out the football
prospects of the State college this
year. On account of the recent vote
of the conference colleges, declaring
for the retroactive part of the four
year rule, RAIDER is now eligible to
play football in conference games
this year.
RAIDER has had charge of the Sec
end team for several days past and
has worked wonders with it. He has
the knack OF making the men work
for all that is in them and has made
a pretty fast machine out of the
material at hand.
RAIDER played at fullback on the
State college team last year, scor-
ing one of the touchdowns in the
victory over the St. Louis univer-
sity at Spokane Christmas day. His
home is in Portland, and he attend

The lndiscretion OF Kern.

Mr. Bryan's running mate on rne
Democratic ticket, Mr.. Kern, In TIT.
course of speech in Baltimore Sept
% declared himself as follows: Under
our system OF jurisprudence ever
man Is presumed inls,cent until his
guilt Is satisfactorily shown"
This is an amazing statement. 1t
shows that Mr.. Kern has either i'm.
perfectly rehearsed tie part assigned
to him by Mr. Bryan or has dellber.
ately changed his lines to suit his own
fancy. In any event he Is likely to
receive sharp reprimand from his
chief.
1t Is self evident that II Mr.. Kern's
proposition h true Of individuals 1t Is
equally true Of corporations. Yet MIR
Bryan's contention Is that the mere
existence of an interstate corporation
proves that it Is lawless organiza.
ton and should be smashed on gen
eral principles. The idea that such a
body has definite legal rights and that
those rights cannot be forfeited except
by due process Of law is intoerable to
Mr. Bryan. He would destroy the
corporations and, II need be, try them

have not been indicted tried, convict

scribed by law is nothing TO him He
Is reaching out for revolutionized
system. under which the president
shall be judge. jury ana executioner
and he won't be happy until he gets it.
Mr. Bryan is an advocate Of lynch
law for interstate corporations. He
has convicted them already and would
subject them to summary execution II
he could have his way. His policies
would not only forfeit the property
rights Of shareholders in such corpora.

which now provide unsurpassed facili-

application Of the Bryan policies. Who
can doubt that the result would be an
increase in the cost Of production, an
increase In the cost of transportation
and hence an increase In the cost to
the consumer Of commodities 30 af-
fected?
Mr.. Kern's talk about Furnishing cor
porations only after due process Of
law Is grave indiscretion. 1t Is a
contradiction and almost betrayal Of
the whole Bryan programme. The
Nebraska agitator has already entered
