HOGS WORTH SEVEN CENTS

A carload of fat hogs were ship
ped from Pullman to Spokane this
week. The price paid to the farm
.ers was seven cents per pound, live
weight. j. b. Chunk, of Spring fiat,
had the largest number in the car
load. He drove 70 head to Pullman
and sold them for $762. which he de-
clares is almost clear profit as he fed
the hogs but little grain. They were
fattened in the stubble fields on
grain that would otherwise have been
wasted

nesday afternoon, the following reso-
buttons condemning the actions of
the Industrial Workers of the
World" at Spokane was passed.
Whereas, 1t is obvious in the in

our good city of Spokane is experience
ing as a result of the mass meeting
held by the |. W. w; now therefore,
be it
Resolved, By the Whitman Post
No. SO, of Pullman, Washington,

lessness and pledging support to the
Honorable Mayor and police depart
ment in the enforcement of the law
be heartily endorsed.
Spokane Resolutions Follow
Whereas, Spokane is now overrun
by horde of aliens, anarchists and
hoboes who have come to our city
from outside posts for the avowed
purpose of defying law and creating
disorder;
Whereas, Some of our so-called
respectable citizens are lending aid
and encouragement to this laWless,
ignorant, degenerate and worthless
mob;
Whereas, All good citizens should
sustain and support our mayor and
police officers in their earnest en-

Quarantine Remains in Effect

But one new case of diphtheria has
developed since the strict quarantine
was established last Wednesday, an in
dication that the enforcement Of the
quarantine regulations has been produc-
tive of good results There are ten cases
in existence at this time, none of them
in serious condition.
The course of Health Officer Phillips
in ordering the quarantine was approved
by resolution of the council at its meet
ing Tuesday evening, and continuance
of the quarantine was ordered until fur
ther notice from the health officer. The
schools will be closed for another week
at least, and the ban on churches anil
all public gatherings will be continued
During the past week the school house
has been thoroughly disinfected, and it
is believed that the spread of the con-
tagion has been effectually checked.

In regard to overproducton the fol-
lowing from an excellent authority on
the subject of the apple cultivation
covers the ground
II want to say that this is not a new
question. Fifty years ago the pessi-
mistic wall was going up that the apple
business would soon be overdone and
would cease to be profitable. At that
time not more than one-tenth as many
apples were raised for commercial pur-
poses in the United States as are raised
today. And yet more money has been
made in growing apples during the last
decade than in any like period since the
Mayflower landed.
Zone hundred years ago apples were
raised but little for commercial purposes.
No great commercial orchards were in
existence. Now trainloads and ship
loads move from American lorchards to
our great centers of trade and across the
ocean to England and other parts of
Europe. Asia is calling for our apples
and getting some, but not 1.-THE of
what will go there in the near future.
Even Australia is taking thousands of
boxes of our best apples and is calling
for more,
"Our highest grade OF American ap-
Piles cannot be duplicated, go we have
the world for market for our best an
pies. Our railroads and steamship lines
are ready and glad to take our fruits to
the ends of the earth. The person then
who looks for this business speedily to
become Improbable does not understand
the situation. The calamity howler'
may scare some people. but not the in
telligent fruit grower, who understands
the situation"

0vERPRODUCT|ON NOT FEARED
Apple Crop Fails to Keep Pace
With Demand.
More Interest Is Taken Locally

Nurserymen report larger sales OF
winter apple trees in this section than
In any previous year. There is also a
noticeable increase of interest in the
apple industry and indications are that
within few years it will come into it's
own as one of the future industries of
this section.
The setting of 80 acres of land to win
ter apples by the Newport Washington
Land Co. on the bench south of town
has given decided impetus to the apple
business and the healthy condition of
the trees and the fine growth made dur
ing an unfavorable season cannot fail to
produce mo! interest in the proposition.
The old fear of an over-production is
gradually being overcome and is wholly
unwarranted as is evident from the
following:
Commercial statistics gathered from
reliable sources show that the annual
production of apples apparently is be-
coming less in proportion to consump-
ton, and actually has been less in the
aggregate the last few years than for
merly. In 1896 the high water mark of
production was reached, when the pro-
duct totalled 69,070,OOO barrels. In the
last five years production has averaged
below 100000 When the production
OF the whole country amounts to only
one-half to two-thirds of the acreage
ability, it is declared to indicate some
thing to be wrong. Diseased orchards,
exhausted soil, unsuitable locations, eli
matte conditions and neglect are cited as
probable causes.
Nowhere is there, it would appear,
such scientific cultivation given this
truit as in northwestern orchards. And
from nowhere else come such Spitzen-
bergs and Newtown Pippins, Rome
Beauties and Baldwins, Winesaps and
Jonathans, Mcintosh Reds, Delicious,
Winter Bananas and other apples as
from there. The Spokane apple show,
therefore, affords fine opportunities for
seeing the products of orchards under
the most advanced methods of cultiva-
ton and handling.

Two Business Houses Broken Into

During Monday night the Ellsworth
Pharmacy and the Central Market were
broken into, the robbers getting no re-
turns for their work
The Ellsworth Pharmacy was entered
by breaking one of the rear windows and
slipping the catch. The burglar evi-
IDENTIFY wanted cash only, as nothing was
disturbed but the cash register, from
which there was taken lone nickel left
there after making up cash the night
before. TO get into the Central Market
a hole was torn in the screen door in the
front large enough to permit man to
crawl through. No money having been
left in the till, the burglar got nothing
for his pains, as he was evidently not
hungry and did not care for any of the
provisions that were easily accessible.

SPECIAL ELECTION ON TUESDAY
County Unit Will Vote On Cues
ton of License.
No Report On the Newport Case

Tuesday, Nov. 9, the people of Stevens
county, residing outside the limits of in
corporated towns. will have an oppor-
tunity to say whether they want the sale
of Intoxicating liquors licensed in the
county unit.
Stevens county is the first county unit
to bring the matter to vote under the
new local option law. Three of the
largest towns of the county have already
put the saloons out of business, and it is
now up to the ranchers to register their
Judgment on the matter.
There are 80 licensed saloons in the
county outside the incorporated towns.
Not one of these saloons has any regula-
ton by municipal authorities, and deal
ing with them has cost the county more
than those in the towns where local re-
strictions and police regulations have
handled them in better shape.
G. B. Kegley, master of the Washing
ton State Grange, has sent the following
ultSSdSc bO GIc IdllCIlcIS VI OlcNcIS COuu
ty: "The work of the saloon in the pa st,
and more especially in the late lament
ed extra session of the legislature,
should be enough to cause every patron
to register VOW that the campaign
should never close until the saloon is
driven from the state. This is our op-
portunity. Let us make the best of it. "
On Tuesday the town of Camas, Lewis
county, was voted drv, but Vancouver
elected to stay in the ranks of the vets.
No news has been received as yet re-
garding the disposition of the case of
the saloonmen against the Town of New
port contesting the validity of the local
option election. The matter was sched-
uled to come up at Colville early this
week but nothing has been heard from
there regarding it.
