and they stood the journey well and
brought good prices. The same is true
of Washington apples.
Much of the superiority of the west
ern apple over the product of the New
York districts Is in the picking and
packing. Your growers fully under
stand these advantages. and that is
where they are wise. Their fruit is
picked ripe and carefully graded and
honestly packed, the result being that
buyers are pleased.
There is not the least danger that
the growers in the northwest will over
do the apple industry. They could
not do that even by doubling or treb-
ling the present orchard area. The
apple crop of the United States was
about 61.o0n.o00 barrels in 1896 and in
no year since then has il amounted to
more than 35.UDo.OOO barrels The
present crop will not reach that fig
ure.
The significance of this is clear.
When ii is considered that the popu-
lation of the United States has in
creased probably by 20,D00.O0O Sine.
1896. while the apple production has
fallen from 67.000.000 to $4,000. O00 bar
rels, il can be readily seen that il is
out of the question To think that the
apple growers in Washington. Oregon,
Idaho, Montana and Colorado can over
supply the embarrassing market"
Mr.. Steinhardt has gone to the We
natchee valley in central Washington
where he will look over the irrigated
orchards for first and second grades
Growers there report a s1.o00OOO apple
crop. and because OF the scarcity of
apples in other parts Of the country
they will hold. their fralt for top

A oMMUNlcATloN.
A Citizen, Thinking Himself Injured,
Has Something to Say.

TO The Tribune: We wish to In.
form the public, through your valu.
able paper, that the only ice cream
sold by us during the Chautauqua
was furnished to us by the Candy
Kitchen, and was up to the standard
of the pure food law.
In an article published by the
Falls City Journal recently the editor
says that he had eaten of this Ice
cream and that it had made him sick.
and in this way he connected us with
the fraudulent ice cream of which he
had so much to say.
Now if the journal editor got sick
eating our ice cream it must have
been because he has a dyspeptie
stomach, of which his editorials fur
nish additional proof
When We called upon the editor
and complained of the damage done
to our reputation by his misrepresent-
ations, and asked him to do what any
gentleman would have been willing to
do-say for us that we had not been
guilty of violating the pure food law
he bluntly refused to do so, unless we
would pay him his price. This we
refused to do, as it looked to us like
acceding to the demands of black
mailer.
Since the above was handed The
Tribune for publication, l have read
the item about me in Tuesdays Jour
nal. Aside from that part of the
item which is entirely meaningless. 1t
is a confession by the editor that
when he connected me with the sell
ing of bad ice cream, he was igno-
rant of the facts about the ice
cream condemned by the pure food
law inspector. The Journal will have
no trouble in convincing its readers
that it is wholly unreliable in about
all it prints-a distinguished feature
of all saffron colored journals.
1t has become plain to others, be-
sides ourselves, that we have an
editor in the person of r. K, who is
pursuing the methods of the disrepu-
table yellow journals, by publishing
.Iaean things about various enterpris-
es for the purpose of compelling pat
ronage and securing hush money

A NEW INDUSTRY.
Putnam G. Son Have Faith In the
Future of Falls City.

Putnam & Son closed deal the

and will begin at once to install

meet to manufacture tile, fancy brick
and numerous other products OF ce-
ment creations.
This enterprising firm has been IN
the bottling business for several years
here in Falls City and feel that the
demand for cement products IN THIS
community will now JUSTIFY the ihs.a'-
lation Of a modern plant, ana at the
same time keep their force employed
the year around.

ARTHUR UNL AND DEAD.
A Former Resident of Humboldt Pas
sed Away in Canada.

Special from Humboldt
A sad message was received Sat
urday night from Nakomis, Canada,
stating that Arthur INLAND, son of c..
c. INLAND and wife, of this city, had
died the previous day at his home
from spinal meningitis and that the
body would arrive in Humboldt Tues
day for interment. Deceased was
thirty-one years of age, and with the
exception of fewsyears has resided
in Humboldt, the past five years hav-
ing been spent on his Canadian
claim. In December 1909 he was mar
ried to Miss Maggie Boss, who de-
parted this life four years later, a
little daughter, Lucille, being born of
the union In March 1908 he married
Miss Mable Carnes at Humboldt, who
with her little babe accompanied the
remains here. Funeral services were
held from the Methodist church on
Wednesday morning.

to allow the surface water to run into
the well. This, Mr.. Van Wrinkle ex-
planned, is absolutely impossible. Mr..
Van Wrinkle said that he had superin-
tended the flushing of the mains sew
eral times, and that the mass of filth
and sediment that came from the
pipes was beyond description. He
thinks. that, without doubt, the
trouble is exclusively in the pipes.
not with the water.
That the water is good in some
places and bad in other localities in
the city is a fact. The water from
the Stone street mains, from all re-
ports, seems to be of good quality;
but the water in the east and south
parts of the city is the worst.
No one present had a decided opin-
ion as to a remedy for the unfortu-
nate condition. Nearly everyone who
ventured an opinion thought that, by
a systematic flushing of the mains by
the city and a continuous running of
the water through the surface pipes
by individuals, the water would in
time become wholesome and satisfac-
tory to all consumers.
In the absence of no positive rem
edy motion was put asking the
chairman to appoint a committe of
five, with DR.. Burchard to act as
chairman, to devise ways and means,
if possible, to correct the present
conditions of the water system; the
committee to report either at fu-
ture meeting, in the press of the
city, or both. The chair appointed
the following to act on the committee
with DIR. Burchard: DR.. H. r. Miner,
Louie Wirth, War Hutchins and w. L.
White.

TWO COURTS IN ONE DAY.
Replevin Case Of Pupkes v. Halbert
Was Compromised.


The repleyin case of Pupkes V. Hal
bert, Monday, which was to have been
tried before Justice Spragins, was set
tied out of court.
1t seems, that after. filling up on
Falls City's beverages, they-some of
the witnesses and the principals-de-
cided that it shouldn't have been set
tied that way. At any rate free-for-
all fight ensued, and Chief Of Police
Marts took a hand in 1t. This, time
they were taken before Judge eSpra-
gins, who is also police judge, and he
required them to donate to the school
fund. .es
They didn't have enough yet. A
little more beverage" and then the
purchase of a pair of brass knuckles
by C. Werner, one of the witnesses,
put the idea into their heads to
tackle Fred Pupkes for another fight.
This time Judge Spragins sent Wer-
ner to Jail until a fine and costs,
amounting to $50, was paid. 1t was
paid the next day

OUTCOME or CHAUTAUQQA
MANAGEMENT MAKES SETTLE
MENT WITH BOARD
A Neat Sum Turned Over to Park
Board Elaborate Plans for
Improving the Park.

The park board and the manage.
ment of the Chautauqua association
met this morning and finished check
ink up the ticket sales and other
business of the association, which
amounted to $3,019.15, of which the
park board received 5 per cent of
the first $2,50000 and Is per cent of
all over that amount, which netted
the park board $202.S7 all of which
has been turned over to the city
treasurer for park improvements.
The report that was circulated, to
the effect that there would be differ
ences between the two managements,
did not show up as everything was
harmonious. The only thing to mar
the happiness of the meeting was
that some one reported that certain
newspaper of this city had said that
the action that paper had taken in
regard to the city water had cost
the chautauqua association the sale
of 1000 single admission tickets,
which the board deprecates. How
ever We do not think it becomes any
good citizen to brag on the amount
of injury that they may be able to do
any enterprise that may be started
in this city. This chautauqua does
not belong to any set of individuals,
but to the city and surrounding coun-
try, and was never started or main
tanned for the benefit of any individ-
uals or company, but for the good of
the whole community, and we feel
sorry that anybody tries to make peo-
pie believe that this is money-mak-
ing institution or a scheme to make
money. All that is asked from year
TO year is simply the expenses.
We have put in our time on the
park property and did all we could
to make the grounds comfortable for
our citizens and their friends, and we
hope next year to do still better.
We have under contemplation a
lake for bathing purposes in the sum-
mer time and skating i'll the winter.
We want to lay out ball park and
have it in woodworking order for next
years games.
Now all we ask is for the citizens
to furnish the means and we will
give you our time and we will try
and turn over to you a park that in
a few years you will all feel proud
to own. And further, We will render
an accounting of every cent of money
you may place in the hands of the
city treasurer for us to use.
Now, from the optimist, we ask
your advice and suggestions; from
the "knocker" and pessimist, we ask
nothing.
