Press and Comment
Orchards and Farms,

Much has been written and spoken concerning the
promise of unprecedented yields from the orchards
of southern Idaho and the evidence is accommodating.
Recently w. r. Mill made an inspection of the grow
ing fruit crop in the neighborhood of Nampa and
found the most encouraging prospects What he has
to say the subject is printed in the Nampa Leader
Herald
To say that the fruit crop of this part of the
try good is putting it too mild Barring any mshap
from now on there will be a bumper crop The writer
went out into the country and made personal in
pection of several orchards and interviewed their
owners To inquiry as to the per cent of fruit
crop the invariably that it would be 100
per cent and could the trees hold up what is them
the crop would be greater than that. But the set
ting of fruit is SO heavy that great amount of it
must be picked off in order that the trees may be
saved and the balance of the fruit given better OPP
portuny to properly mature. The fruit is in excel
lent condition. and strange it may seem out of the
great many apples examined not a single one showed
the trace of worms showing that the orchardsts had
taken every precaution possible to keep their fruit
free from the coddng moth and other insects Right
here it is we'll to state for the benefit of those
who are not acquainted with the laws of the state
that there is fruit orchard Inspector who exam
ines the fruit in the orchards and should it be found
diseased and not in proper condition for the market
the orchard is condemned and it is a violation of
law to dispose of the crop
Grain prospects in the north are somewhat hazard
Gus. The Advance of Post Falls, Kootenai county,
says:
Spring grain throughout this valley is not all
that IS desired and may be total loss in localities
owing to dry hot weather, and if rain falls not within
few days hope will have taken to the brush Fall

Walla and other sections of central Washington the
hot weather has badly damaged spring grain, one
man alone losing several hundred acres This is
evidently off year in the maturity of spring grain
1t is feared the apple crop will not be so large as
last year, and possibly the entire orchard product
But poor morals can't dwell in the exurberance of
abundance in all years, for something goes wrong
with the gearing of that political machine that brings
general prosperity Yet crops throughout the coun-
try are not all gone by long shot, and there will
be plenty for home consumption and good prices

The principal of delay in the work at this

WHAT ABOUT THE HOUSED

Referring to tariff revision bills
Representative DalZell, Republican, OF
PENNSYLVANIA, and a member OF the
ways and means committee of the
house, is quoted by the Associated
Press as saying:
This multiplicity of bills and reso-
lutions does not scare anybody. There
Is no change in the situation" he de-
clared AT the commencement of the
session the ways and means commit.

no tariff revision at this session.

WHO PAYS THE 6iLl7

The American Protective Tariff
league has issued circular No. 2l6-
which shows that the league has issued
good many circulars beforehand
this circular is In the form OF letter
asking for the name and address Of
one person who will cast his first vote
In the presidential election In 1909.
The league wishes ito forward litera-
ture on the subject OF protection" -
and wants the home address" only.
1t costs money to keep an Office on
broadway In New York and furnish
literature en- the subject Of protection.
The Protective Tariff league has for
a good many years been sending out
this literature, and these who get II
are helping to pay for It. Like the
tariff tax. the payment is concealed
but somebody must pay It. The pro.
tected industries have used a small
part OF the money that they get from
the people to pay for the literature
with which to send out arguments In
support Of protection. The Protective

TMMEpIATELY'-8UT LATER

In his letter to the Indiana Repub'
lIcan convention wherein he pleaded
for postpunement Of tariff revision
until after the presidential election,
Vice President Fairbanks said: We
can, however. revise surh schedules as
may require revision Immediately fol-
lowing the coming national election
and before the fourth OF next March
Well. why not revise one or two
schedules before the election In order
to give the people Il sample OF tarif
revision by the Republican party?
Why not revise the wood pulp
schedule. for which revision Repub'

PERHAPS A NATURAL MISTAKE.


Henry Grimm. who was formerly
one of the prominent members OF the
German.Amcrican society. tells a story
about a German friend OF his who
was taken ILL.,
For many days the German was
close to death. but after time he
showed Improvement in condition.
The doctor told the Germans wife
that her husband might have any
thing TO eat that he liked.
The German expressed a desire for
L'mburger cheese, and the wife, being
n generous woman and pleased at tho
Improvement, and In order that her
husband might have a nibble at any
time he had n taste for It, put some
cheese in every room in the house.
1t Is easy to imagine the aroma.
The next morning the doctor called
at the house. and as soon as he opened
the dooy he asked.
when did he die?"-Hartford Post.

Tariff iincus pncus

One of the best arguments against
any tariff bill ever made was that OF
Senator Beveridge In his reply to Sen.
ator Newlands on January s, 1905.
Mr.. Beveridge declared that congress
could not of itself find out the facts
and make the classincations necessary
as condition precedent TO framing 4
just tariff bill (See record, page 1880
Yet the peoples representatives alone
are authorized to frame such n bill.
II they cannot frame just tariff bill,
why should they frame any at all?
II the committee on ways and means
cannot discover and correct the Inc.
qualities Of the iron and steel schedule.
the wool schedule, the cotton textile
schedule, the wood schedule, the pot.
terry schedule, and two or three others
which do all the real damage, then pop.
ular government Is failure, indeed.
This Beveridge bill is a snare and a
delusion. II was conceived in sin and
born in iniquity. Its object is to allow
the trusts to continue to charge our
own people not only the difference
between the price of any article
abroad and the price at home. but &c
sell steel rails and other products
from 20 to so per cent. cheaper ABROAD
than at home. 1t will not fool anybody
outside of Indiana, however. II is tor
