MARTIN SEEKING WAY
TO GET AT BOND FIRMS
CFrom SAD corresponednet.l

LINCOLN, Neb. Dec l.-(Special. AT
torney General Martin, who has been
making every effort for the last few days
to find a way whereby action could be
brought against the seven bonding COM
panies which are complained Of by Judge
Vinsonhaler of Omaha as violating the
Junkin antitrust act, asserted today that
he would attempt to obtai ma rehearing
in the matter OF the American Surety
company in which the supreme court held
that insurance is not trade or commerce
and which virtually held the bonding
companies immune from the operations
of the antitrust legislation.
An effort was made to take the matter
up under the revocation of licenses, but
an investigation OF the law In this regard
disclosed the fact that only fire lnsur-
ance companies are subject to this pro-
vision of the statutes.
Attorney General Martin declraes that
II he can get a reversal or modification
OF the ruling I'm the case which was re-
Gently In the supreme court, he has a
way to follow the matter to a conclusion,
but otherwise, he is certain that there is
nothing that can be done TO stop the
bonding companies from showing one
class OF saloonkeepers privileges over
other classes or in pooling their lots
over this class Of business in the state.

APPLES TO HONOLULU

Grimes Golden and Jonathan
Apples Come in as Peaches
Make Their Exit

According to the statements Of the
fruit warehouse men Grimes Golden
and Jonathan apples are commenc-
ing 10 come in nicely. and as the
peaches will be cleaned up next week,
apples will take their place. AS a
matter OF fact, Jonathans have been
coming in for some time, and the
Richey- Gilbert company have al
ready shipped two carloads to Homo
lulu, H. T. That fact is a pointer
that the market for the fruit Of the
Yakima valley is wide one, and even
tually the apples OF this region will
be shipped around the world.
There is a genearl impression that
the hay crop of the reservation this
season will be worth 100000, and
the present indications are that the
hop crop will also equal if not ex-
coed that figure. These two big crops
this year, together with the high
prices. will be large factor in bring
ing the money value of the freight
shipments from this region up to the
normal this year, while the optimistic
will look forward and make predic-
lions as to what the Yakima valley
will produce in years to come, after
the increased fruit acreage has come
into bearing. and no spring frosts in
terfere with the early fruit.
The hop crop alone this year means
the shipment from the Yakima valley
of more than one hundred cars OF
freight, for it is nearly all sent out,
