Several FruitgrOwerS
Have Suffered Loss

Several Orcas island fruitgrowers
have suffered this fall by reason OF
a misplaced confidence put in an ap-
pie buyer, J. H. Bywater. His pur-
chases of apples are variously esti-
mated at from 1900 to 1000 boxes.
Whatever the number may have
been it is said that not one cent has
yet been received from him nor has
he been heard from since purchasing
the fruit several weeks ago, in spite
of the fact that he promised to pay
cash for all he bought. Some of his
victims were also heavy losers three
years ago on account of the con-
demning of a large shipment OF ap-
pies made to San Francisco, by the
Manager of the Orcas Island Fruit
growers Association. Two losses in
three years is pretty severe and
somewhat discouraging but it may
prove a lesson to most of the losers
and they are not likely to get bit
ten" again soon. The growers say
that they had no reason whatever
to distrust Mr.. Bywater or to accept
his word for anything else but the
truth, for the reason that in former
wears he had treated them squarely
and met them more than half way.
At these times he was simply acting
as the agent for others, while this
wear he was buying on his "own
hook" He may show up yet and
make settlement; it is to be hoped
he will, but most of those from
whom he purchased the fruit nave
given up all hope Of ever seeing OF
hearing from him again.
A big sale of state tide and school
lands took place at the court house
last Saturday. Most of the tide
land offered sold at the appraised
valuation Of $500 per chain, but one
piece on Waldron island, abuttlne
the stone quarries, appraised $2S4
sold for $1,000. There was some
spirited bidding for tract OF school
land on john island sold for $zOOU'
and also for a seventy-acre tract near
OLGA. purchased for w. II. Cline, o1
Sunnyside. and a. forty-acre tract
near Doe Bay purchased by s. J,
Craft, of Bellingham. An So,acrs s
tract Ia the same section as the Cra1'
tract was sold to O. H. Culver fol
$500. The same tract was solo
eighteen years ago for $40 per acre
but it was allowed to revert 70 tnt
state after two or more payments
had been made.

an increase of the postal rates on
periodicals and magazines. A
parcels post is not recommended
by him. It is believed that the
public wants parcels post es-

through which it would wipe out
che chronic postal deficit. The
great express companies are max
ing enormous profits amounting
to over q hundred per cent on
watered stock all of which means
that the public is paying them

It is thought by many that the eff
