Macon, Ga, Sept. 10.-J. w. Caba-
Mss, formerly president Of the En-
change Bank Of Macon, who was con-
victed in the Superior Court and SEN
fenced to one year on the State prison
farm and fine of $500 for declar-
ing illegal dividends, has been par
doned by Governor Brown.
The Court Of Appeals, before
which tribunal new trial has been
asked, has just declared a rehearing
of the case, after denying the motion
for new trial. In denying the re-
hearing the court stated however,
that the judge of the lower court
should modify the sentence, as the
offense of Cabaniss dia not involve
moral tcrpitude. The pardon was
signed before the verdict Of the Court
or Appeals was made the verdict of
the Superior Court, or before the
Judge OF the lower court had an on
portunity Of modifying the sentence.
Mr.. Cabaniss was for many years
at the head Of the Exchange Bank,
which failed in 1907. G. NJ. Orr, the
cashier Of the bank, is now serving
ven-year sentence for embezzle-
ment, being convicted about a year
after the failure OF the institution.

Printing on Apples.

Occasionally much interest is
aroused by tho appearance in fruit
store of new apples on which APP
pear perfect photographs, not past
ed on but apparently in the skin of
the fruit itself.
Though interesting, the method of
making picture apples is simple and
not at all difficult if the fruit is of
a red variety, Just before the ap-
pie begins to turn, a Photographic
film is fastened about 1t in such a
manner that 1t will not move and
blur the picture. The foliage is then
removed so that the apple is exposed
to the direct rays of the sun. and
nature does the printing. The prints
are clear. sharp and perfect in every
way, except that depth of tone Is
lacking. If it Is desired to brand a
name or words on the fruit, black
paper should be used instead of the
film, the desired letters being cut
out.
Probably some clever advertiser
will see the advantage of this meth
cd some day, and we may be hand
ed an apple on which Is attractively
etched something like, eff I Give
You Pains, Take Pepper Pepsin

COMMISSION PLAN NEEDED FOR
WENATCHEE.

Senator-elect Allen, of North
Yakima, is preparing a bill to en-
power cities under $4,000 popula-
ton to formulate their own charters
with reference to the adoption of a
commission form of government. A
carefully drawn bill of this character
should be enacted by the legislature
this coming session. In this state,
where municipalities are growing
rapidly, the cumbersome system
under which smaller cities are forced
TO work results in ineficiency and
waste.
Wenatchee furnishes good illus
tration of this. Within the last year
and a half, provision has been made
for the expenditure of vast sums of
money for street grading, paving and
installing sewer system. The may
or and council serve without COM
pensation, and as each of these Of
ficials has private interests to at
tend to, they find it impossible to
give sufficient time to the interests
of the city. The work of administra-
ton is becoming more and more Diff
ficult and the best interests of the
city demand that men be placed in
charge who combine know
ledge of modern ideas of municipal
needs with some expert knowledge of
the departments committed to their
charge.
The city council should no longer
be permitted to grant a public fran
chise without a referendum to the
people. A modern system of NUM-
cipal accounting should be installed
showing costs, the valuation of mu-
nicipal property, sources of income,
expenditures and complete reports
of the city's financial standing should
be published frequently. The adop-
ton of charter providing for a

AN EACELLENT PUBLICATION.

A 96-page booklet has been issued
blythe bureau of statistics and immi-
grafton which gives a resume of de-
yelopment of irrigated lands in this
state. This publication is copiously
illustrated and gives concise but
accurate description of what has been
accomplished in converting barren
wastes into the most valuable pro-
ductive lands. In addition, it con-
tains valuable statistical tables with
reference to climatic conditions, cost
of development and profits. Each
district of the state is treated sepa-
rately.
The first 40 pages of this booklet
are given to a discussion of north
central Washington. Deputy Com
missioner Allen has recommended
that 10000 copies of this be pub
lished for general distribution in
connection with the work of the de-
partment. This edition should be
exhausted in about a week and the
demand for is from those interested
in the development of North Central
Washington should lead to a new
edition Of $4,000 or $4,000 copies
for this district alone.
