the final address Of the prosecution
to the jury
President Taft has more than once
dwelt upon the need of reform in our
legal methods. and in his brothers
paper, the Cincinnati Times-Star, we
read
Perhaps the most needed reform
in this country today is the simpliii-
cation of legal procedure and the
more rapid carrying out of justice.
Society needs such a reform in erin
inal cases for its own protection; in
civil protection it needs it quite as
much for the protection of the man
of moderate or small means who is
unable to bear the expense of pro-
tracted litigation
Not entirely unanimous, however
is the tribute of our press to the ex-
cellence of English justice. Thus the
Cleveland Plain Dealer. while admit
ting that IF Crippen is hanged very
few will believe that his punishment
is unmerited," goes on to complain
that the brief deliberation of the jury
on so important a case was little
short of indecent" And in the De-
troit Free Press we read:
1.-The London jury we're able to de-
eide this problem in less than half
an hour after it had perplexed the
world for months because the judge
practically settled it for them. Lord
Alversons conduct of the case was
that of a eprsonal conductor. He dom

IAN Alverstone may be trusted
with absolute power, but could an
average American Judge be given it?
Hardly Most of them lack the sense
of aloofness. the capacity to regard
only the need for securing justice,
even the training in professional
technic, which qualified the judge
who tried Crippen to discharge The
extraordinary duty laid on him in 50
extraordinary manner. We need
different kind of judge, as well as
different kind of procedure over here.

BE THANKFUL

Among the numerous causes for
thanksgiving which are recited in
the proclamations issued by the pres
ident and the governor, we fail to
note an adiuration to be thankful
that the campaign is over.
Every two years for several weeks
preceding the thanksgiving season We
arc in the throes Of a political cam
paign. It the heat of battle the in
junction to love thy neighbor as
myself is often forgotten, and sores
are opened which the uninitiated
might think could never be healed
over.
Therefore, we should all be thank
full that peace brings reason; that
the vanquished felicitates the victor
and that vanquished and victor again
take up the common burden of good
citizenship and unite for the good Of
the country and the community.
This is the spirit which has made
the United States forge to the front
and which has justified the first
Thanksgiving and every succeeding
one-the spirit that favors a good
fight and a clean one, and a laying
down of weapons. actually as well
as fgunatively, when the fight is
ended.

project, no matter TO how small an
extent. or whether as a water right
owner or creditor, to join them in an
effort to bring order out of chaos.
They sent Francis d. Adams, a
young Seattle attorney. to Mountain
Home to enlist the local interests
in support of the plan. He quickly
acquired a wonderful grasp of the
situation, and by his enthusiasm and
interchangeable labor, was success
full in lining up a majority of the
land owners and creditors at Noun
tain Home, as well as at Minneapolis
and other points. A stumbling block
was encountered in the large mort
gage holders, whose consent it was
necessary to obtain to the proposed
plan of reorganization before def
mite action could be taken.
It has taken practically since last
July to induce these mortgage hold
ers to sign up in favor Of the pro-
posed plan. but Mr.. Adams, Mr.. Eft
el and those associated with them,
were unfiagging in their efforts,
which have now been crowned with
success. Every element necessary to
carry out the organization scheme
has now been united and it should
be noted in passing that the promot-
ers have been successful in every
thing they have undertaken in the
preliminary work. They have labor
ed quietly and without the accom-
naniment of music and hurrahs. but
they have achieved results; and what
they have accomplished thus far aug
urs well for what may be expected
in the future.
Mr.. Adams and Mr.. Eitel are now
on the ground. and. in conjunction
with the local directors, have start
ed the ball rolling. An engineer has
been engaged and a large party will
be in the field within a few days to
make the necessary surveys. There
will be no let up in the work until
the company is able to go before the
state land board and apply for a seq
regation of these lands under the
Carey Act.
Il is necessary, however, to have
the undivided support of every cit
izen of Mountain Home and of every
land owner in the valley. Without
such support the plan muct collapse.
and Mountain Home cannot afford
such a blow. 1t would be fatal to the
hopes of the people. The time for
yacillating has passed. If anything
is to be accomplished, now is the
time to do it, The present plan
must not fail, for if it does, no 9TH
er will be available for a great many
years, and it is a question if a grear
many people will be able to hold on
if the plan falls through. The signs
are auspicious. and at last enthus-
iasm may properly take the place Of
skepticism.

every one OF the pictures there Is a
large banner, bearing the inscription,
"Hood River Apples. In its news
columns the Guide" as the follow
ing to say OF Hood River apples:
"nood River apples packed by the
Hood River Valley Association have
again demonstrated the value OF care
in the packing and selection of stock
for the several markets. 1t is stated
on good authority that the big> deal

been wound up and that the bulk OF

put into circulation among the trade.
The apples from the section noted

last-and that is saying a good deal.
tor last year the sales we're on scale

the uniformity shewn in the grading
and packing of this high class fruit
established a confidence among the
buyers that made the disposal OF the
stock a mere matter OF detail. 10
the Hood River Apple Growers
Union Is due the praise that comes to
those who have set a high mark fol
excellence and maintained 1t.
cit is pointed out that by establish
ing the reputation for uniform pack
ing and grading the Union has made
great strides in simplifying the de-
tails Of handling the fruit 10 the
several markets. The buyer has learn
ed that the boxes marked with the
label of the Union contain fruit that
runs alike all through the boxes, and
1t is only question whether he is
willing 10 pay the price asked. The
fact that the thousand boxes coming
forward this season have gone out
quickly to buyers is sufficient war
rant for the assertion that the buyers
have not hesitated on the question OF
pI eference. A feature i'll this con.
nection, too. is the fact that the
standard set by the Hood River Apple
Growers Union has been the m Jans
of bringing about a general improve
ment in both the quality and pack of
other apples shipped from the Far
West.
