Turkey Has a
New Sultan

Constinople. April 28.-The reign of
Abdul Hamid II. ended Tuesday with
his deposition and the accession of his
brother, Mehemed Reschad Effendi, as
Mehemed V.
The name is a vaiation Of Mabomet,
1t being considered inappropriate to
assume the precise name of the prop
het.
Mehemed V. is the 35th sovereign of
Turkey in male decent of the house of
Osman, the founder of the empire and
the 29th sultan since the conquest of
Constantinopfe.
The two houses of pal Lament, meet
ing as q national assembly, approved
the decree of deposition, which was
read by the Sheik ul Islam chief of the
ulemas, and supreme judge on eccle-
siastical questions. The document re-
cites that Abdul Hamid's acts were
contrary to the sacred law and set forth
a long list of crimes, the whole making
a terrible Indictment. The assembly
chose Reschad as sultan and appointed
committees to notify the dethroned
sovereign and his successor. 1.-THE fir
ing Of 1O1 guns announced to the wait
ing people that a new sultan has been
proclaimd.
The ceremonies connected with the
transfer of the power were simple.

Fruit Outlook.

Fruit buds are growing on the leaves
of peach trees is the remarkable phe.
nomenon observed in several orchards
in the Yakima valley of Washington,
where the original buds on a number of
early bearing trees were killed this
spring by an unusual frost. AS a result
some of the orchards will have light
crops, but as good prices are expected
there will be no severe loss. Trees in
the compound at Fort Simcoe and in
other parts of the valley escaped The
chill winds and are now in full bloom,
while late peach trees are also doing
well. Cherry trees are in blossom and
a large crop is expected. Professor
w. s. Thornber, horticultural expert at
the government experiment station,
Pullman, says he has record of instances
where peach trees, robbed of their buds
by cold weather, have developed leaf
buds into fruit blossoms, but this is
the first time he has heard of it in
the state of Washington.

w. s. TAYLOR PARDoNED.
Former Governor Free From Charge O.
Goebel Murder Completely.


Governor Wilson of Kentucky has
granted pardons to former Governor
w. 8. Taylor and former Secretary of
State Charles Finley, both refugees in
Indiana, charged with completely in the
murder of William Goebel in 1900.
Pardons were granted also to John
Powers, brother of Caleb Powers: to
Holland Whitaker, John Davis and
Zach Steel, under indictemnt and who
did not flee the state.
Those over whom indictments are left
hanging are Wharton Golden, now in
Colorado; Frank Cecil, a railroad de-
~tective in st. Louis, and William II,
Cullon, said to have died in west a
few months ago. These cases, with the
possible exception of that of Cecil, will
be dismissed, leaving Henry E. Youtsey,
now serving a life sentence in the state
prison, the only person to suffor for
the killing of Governor Goebel.
Reiterating the belief which he ex.
pressed some months ago when he par.
doned Caleb Powers and James R. How
ard, that no one but Youtsey had part
in the murder, and that it was not a
conspiracy, Governor Wilson said he
believed that to pardon Taylor was ga
sacred duty which l must no longer de-
lay to carry into effect"

REPORTS FROM GRAIN BELTS,
Outlook for Big Yields in Inland En-.
pire Farms.

Outlook for Big Yields in Inland En-
pire Farms.
Reports from the grain belts in east
ern Washington and Oregon, northern
and central Idaho and western Montana.
compiled by August Wolf Of the Spo-
kae chamber of commerce, show that the
wheat yield in the Inland Empire will
be near the 80, 900 bushel mark this
season, as against $4,000, 900 bushels in
1907, the banner year in the history Of
the district. Conditions are also favor.
able for bumper crops of oats and other
cereals.
The acreage Of winter wheat is as
large as it has aver been, while there
will be an increase of from IL to Is per
cent in spring-sown grain. What this
means to the farmers of this part of the
northwest will be better understood
when it is known that 50-cent wheat is
profitable, 65-cent grain yields big re-
turns, while from 75-cent to 81 wheat
becomes the basis of fortunes.
More than 100000 acres of land in
10 counties in eastern Washington
yielded 4o,675,0O0 bushels Of wheat in
1907.
Farmers throughout the country be-
feve that prices this year will be
higher than have yet prevailed at the
beginning of the shipping season, as
there is little wheat on hand.
