PRESIDENT ELLIOTT ON APPLES.

President Howard Elliott's speech
at the opening of the national apple
show in Spokane touched upon a
number of points which are important
not only TO orchardists, but also to
everybody who is concerned in the
try. There is very little doubt that
the fruit industry is destined in the
long run to become the most potent
factor In the prosperity of Oregon
and Washington. Mines are exhaust
ed in the course OF time. Timber is
subject to the destructive flames and
the forests can only be made perman-
emily productive by difficult and ex.
pensive system of protection. Like all
other civilized communities, Oregon
must depend upon agriculture for the
basis of its ultimate prosperity.
Mr. Elliott advances some facts
which tend to allay this apprehension.
He reminds us that the apple crop of
the United States in 1895 was 60,453.-
900 barrels In 1909, only thirteen
years later, 1t had fallen to 22,735, 900
barrels. The decline was much more
than so per cent of the entire crop for
1895. The tree paintings on the coast
look extensive to observers in the i'm
mediate neighborhood, but compared
with the consuming capacity of the
country they are Insignificant thus
far. They will not begin when they
are all in bearing, to restore the ap-
pie crop to the figures of 1895. To be
sure, orchards have been planted else
where. Colorado. Missouri and many
other favored areas are growing apples
more intelligently than In years, but
the demand far Outruns the supply,
and 1t would continue to do so II ev-
every acre of fruit land on the coast
were producing to its full capacity.
The population of the United States is
increasing faster than we can plant
apple trees. Every advance in prosper
ity and intelligence, no matter where,
means larger consumption of fruit
There are many reasons for believ-
ing that the apple will become a sta
pie article Of food in well-to.do fami-
lies before long. Nothing need be
said about its agreeable taste That

MAKING A CONSTITUTION.

Obeying the warning issued by the
Republican congress, the people OF
New Mexico have Just finished fran
ing a state constitution which avoids
the blunders committed by the Okla
homans when doing a like work few
years ago. They avoided all freak
propositions and restricted themselves
to the shaping OF general outline
broad principles of government, leav.
ing the legislature free hand to
deal with the specific questions as
they arise. In this respect they were
guided by the practice of men who
met in Philadelphia a century and a
quarter ago to frame the great char
ter under which the American people
have lived ever since, and which has
needed only few alterations to make
1t meet all the crises which have come
up during the life of rapidly growing
and vast nation.
New Mexicos Constitutional Con
vention met in Santa Fe on October
3 and completed its labors and ad.
journed on November 81 The con-
stitution will be submitted to the peo-
pie of the territory in the latter part
of January. If 1t is ratified, as it
probably Will be, it will be handed
over to congress for examination, and
If 1t meets favor there the president
will say this in proclamation, and
then 1t will choose state and national
Officers and be ready for representa-.
ton in congres when the new ses-
sion opens on the first Monday OF
December 1911. Its people believe
that these formalities can be gone
through with early enough to permit
1t to place the forty-seventh star on
the flag by July next The country
would be glad to see this aspiration
gratified
1t must be remembered that In this
important business of charter making
New Mexico began sanely. Among
the sveral score of men who were
chosen to the Constitutional Conven,
tion all actively were represented.
The Republicans were largely in the
majority, In this respect 1t made a
very wide and creditable departure
from the Oklahoma example. Unlike
the assemblage at Gutherie, in 1906
there were no freaks and faddists
among the Santa Fe charter makers
Every man among them took his task
seriously. He was chosen to assist In
( making set of general regulations
under which his community could
1--we advantageously and develop its
resources. For many years New Mex
| leo has sent Republican delegates tc
congress. There is fair probabilit,
that 1t will remain with the Repub
!. lean party, and thus furnish a val
fsuable advertisement for itself, which
! will attract settlers and capital. Il
grew to the extent OF 81 per cent IL
4he past ten years. record which Is
fHaten by Oklahoma only of the
states thus far reported, and 1t is mo-
/ likely to be exceeded by any states
I yet to hear from. In the work Of stat,
making the people of New Mexico
have started out in very creditablt
way.

lin addition to carrying on political

The Herald maintained when the Of

were willing to abide by the result:
and we are going to stand by 1t to
the finish.
We did not favor the case filed by
Republicans against allowing the
names of Democratic justices and
constables from going on the official
ballots before election, and when an
election contest is inadvisable, unless
some unusual and extraordinary oc-
oasion has arisen. In Barr's case there
is no such demand for an investiga-
ton.
While we have not ascertained Mr..
Reister's feelings in the case we be-
liev that he is not pushing the case
and would not care to be reseated by
