In any sense of the term, and it is esti-
mated by r. II. Rice, secretary and
manager, that fully $4,000 more will
be expended in staging the pageants in
connection with the harvest festival
In the business district during the week
of the show.
1.-The 1911 festival was literally
forced upon us this year by the bui-
ness men and residents generally of
Spokane" said Harry J. Nicely, first
vice president of the National Apple
Show, Inc, Gas we were given to under
stand early last spring that st. Paul
wanted the show in connection with the
land exposition there the coming fall.
However, about a week ago it was
learned that the land show people could
not see their way clear to undertake
such large enterprise, chiefly because
of the expense and lack of room to
properly display the exhibits, and it
was put up to this organization.
"We told delegation of prominent
citizens that if Spokane would guaran-
tee fund of $4,000 the National
Apple Show, Inc, would stage larger
and better competitive show than has
ever been seen in the western country
and in addition give week of carnival
festivals in the downtown business dis
trict. A committee was organized and
the frt days canvass resulted in sub
scriptions amounting to $4,000, with
the rest of the money needed in sight
We have every reason to think that the
show the last week in November will
be the most important and interesting
in the history of Spokane and that il
will be a credit to the entire country

A Chicago lawyer tells of a newly
elected squire in Minnesota, who was
much elated by his honors, but not
quite sure that he could sustain them
gracefully. So for some time previous
to his assumption of the Office he hung
about the courts to get a tip now and
then as to legal procedure. One phrase
struck him particularly, and it was not
long before he had an opportunity to
utilize it.
When, sitting in judgment on his first
case, the testimony was all in and the
arguments made, his honor cleared his
throat and delivered himself of the
following:

visement until next Thursday morning,
when it will render a verdict in favor

ager R. P. Burton, who is now tour
ing the country, visiting the large
markets and sizing up the situation
for the coming season, is planning to
cut short his trip by several days, and
may be expected to reach Tampa in
approximately ten days.
Mr. Burton's bulletins received
from time to time have been optimist-
ic to a degree, and have shown that
the coming season for Florida citrus
fruits may be considered a bumper
one His reason for cutting short his
stay, it is understood, lies in the fact
that he believes the eastern markets
will handle all the citrus fruits Flor
ida can put out, so has given up his
trip through the far western states.

the exchange, is planning to return
soon from Atlantic Beach, where he

season soon to open. 1t is intimated
that on his return Mr.. Temple will
institute a vigorous campaign against
all violations OF the so-called green

same time Mr. Bullock made one of
his many trips home to attend to his
personal affairs.
When we next had a meeting to
discuss the game law, Colonel Rog.
ers had drawn the bill, embracing
some new features not heretofore dis
cussed, of which he had learned
while on his visit home, at Lynne,
and also at Anthony. All of these
measures l thought were good. 1t
then developed, after Mr.. Bullock had
returned from Ocala, that he was op-
posed to any kind of a game bill ex-
cept one that would give special priv
1leges to his clients, (the parties who
own the large hunting preserve near
Lake Georgel, and to the men who
pull these peoples legs" The own
ers of said preserve could not come
to Florida so we'll in September and
November, December, January and
February they were to have special
exemption from paying a license for
hunting, as shown in the latter part
of section of new game law This
is another part of the bill for which
Mr. Bullock can rightly claim all the
glory!
Several other meetings were ar
ranged for to discuss the bill, but Mr..
Bullock was always so busy?" that
he could spare only a few minutes
each time. SO the matter drifted
along till almost the close of the ses-
sion. Colonel Rogers and myself at
last decided that we would have to
either accept Mr.. Bullock's proposed
amendments, (bungling and unjust
though they were), consisting of Sec
ton 1 and part of section 6, or get
no relief for the Marion county peo-
pie working under the old local game
law.
Mr.. Bullock amended section l.,
changing dates from September to
October to November, December,
January and February, and thought
he had changed all the dates in the
bill-hence the confiction of dates in
said bill. Colonel Rogers and l de-
tected Mr. Bullock's blunder, and did
not swallow the whole thing" unad-
visedly, but thought a part of a loaf
better than no loaf, knowing that one
or more sections of a bill might be
defective by the courts, but this
would not necessarily kill all the vir-
tues of the bill, and if we could save
only a part of it we thought best to
do so.
Mr.. Bullock says he opposed me
mot this bilD from start to finish.
This opposition to me, personally, is
no new thing. This has been fully
recognized in every campaign that I
have made in Marion county, partic-
ularly the last one. So Mr.. Bullock's
actions in the last legislature did not
surprise me IN the least. But the peO-
pie of Marion county had a right to
expect Mr.. Bullock to rise above pet
ty personal feelings when handling
matters that pertain to public inter-
est.
A man who asks for and accepts
positions of public honor and trust
should know neither friend nor foe

him. and the ''wet" and the dry
