MAHUKA SITE
CASE CLOSING

The evidence in the Mahuka site
was taken up by the settling of the
instructions to be given to the jury by
Judge Dole tomorrow or Saturday.
The instructions will be rather volu-
minous, each of the three parties to
the suit having their own ideas as to
how the jury should be charged by
the court. Each attorney has sub
mitted to the judge a long list of in
structions. These were read over and
closely debated this morning, some of
the instructions submitted being
agreed to without argument while 9th
ers brought forth vigorous protests.
The proceedings were, as a whole,
however, more amicable than those of
the past two or three days.
Argument on the case will COM
mence tomorrow morning and will
probably last all day, and possibly
part of Saturday. United States Dis
trict Attorney Breckons, however,
states that he hopes the cases will go
to the jury Saturday morning and
that verdict will be returned some
time during the day.
The jury has an immense mass of
evidence to consider, if it goes into all
in detail There is the possibility,
however, that a general impression
has been made on the minds of the
jury sufficiently strong So that 1t viii
not be necessary for them to go over
the testimony at great length It
may be that the verdict will be arriv-
ed at much quicker than might be
indicated by the length of time oc-
cupied by the trial, which has lasted
nearly a month.

GOVERNOR ENJOYS
SLACK PERIOD

Governor Frear said this morning
that, for the first time for some days,
he has had a moment of leisure. This
happy state is seldom achieved by the
territorial executive, and the governor
much appreciated the change.
In response to a question as to
whether he intends to pay a visit to
the island Of Hawaii in the near fu-
ture, the governor replied that he had
received many invitations to do so, but
that he could not say if he would
make a trip in the near future.
The governor stated that he had re-
ceived no further word from Washing,
ton regarding his reappointment OF the
appointment of his successor.

anges and lemons and the growers
saw that their only salvation was
in getting together and staying to-

Now they are all making some
money. The same conditions pre-
vail here in Colorado. To secure the
best results the growers must get

are the main stay in keeping up
prices and making our land valu-
able. The bearing land would new
er have sold at $500 to $4,000 per
acre if it had not been for the as
sociations.
Each of our associations has a
board of directors that employs an
expert fruit man to manage its busi-
ness and his duties are many-to see
that the fruit is properly packed
and labeled and that sufficient cars
are secured for shipments; that the
varieties suitable to the various To-
calities are shipped to those mar
kets; that supplies are purchased
such as spray materials, boxes, pa
per, nails, etc. To act intelligent
ly the association manager should
know approximately how much fruit
he is going to be required to pro-
vide for and the grower should in

knows what he has to sell and is
looking up buyers months before the
fruit is picked. A good salesman is
in touch with the buyers at every
distributing point in this country
and Canada, and knows the wants
of each locality.
Now you show me the orchard
list who thinks he can sell his fruit

perts do and l will show you man

cash buyers are looking for because
they expect to get the best of the

buyer would prefer to buy from the
association if he could do as well.

THE ADVERTISER.

Old Faker, of the Gold Brick store,
spent rolk; of roubles by the score,
announcing special sales of cheese
and setting hens and bumblebees.
These goods, he said, were fresh and
lean, the finest goods he'd ever
seen. He had to sacrifice them all
to buy his stock of junk for fall.
All goods had been marked down
cne-third; the people took him at
his word and blew themselves for
shoes and hats and garments that
would hide their stats. And soon
they found the things they bought,
like Faker's promises, were rot;
the goods that he declared so nice
were mighty dear at any price. He
fooled them this way divers times
and gathered in lot of dimes,
but soon they tumIbled to his game
and swore at mention of his name.
The cobwebs grew on Faker's store;
he has no business any more, and
every time a man goes past, he
sighs: The sheriff's come at last!"
There's nothing like the truth in
scads. Just fool your patrons once

FORCING THE PRICE OF FRUIT
j. G. A. SIMPSON,


In years past, when supply and
demand was the standard of values.
the marketing of farm products was
easy. Every town or city had buy
ers for all kinds of farm produce,
in an open, competitive market. No
combination existed then to fix the
prices. Supply and demand ruled.
But old things have passed away and
all things have become new. James
Fiske, Jay Gould and other men OF
New York forty years ago brought
about a corner in gold and Black Fri
day was the result. This was one
of the first combinations of capital
Vs. mako big profits and it was a
huge success. From that time TO
the present, combinations have set
the price.
The manufacturer fixes the price
on his goods and also sets the
price for his labor. Wages being toe
low for u comfortable living, men
organized unions to compel employ
ers to give them fair share of the
profits of their labor. but met with
only partial success because all lab
oring men would not go into the
union. while capitalists stand to-
gether as firmly as the rocks OF the
continental divide. So it is with
the fruit trust and the commission
men stand in with it, They are
really the blood suckers of the coun-
try. They starved the tobacco grow
ers and drove them into a combi-
nation for protection and they, like
the laboring men. were not unit
and the night-riders were organized
They had to take extreme meas
ures to force all growers into the
organization so they could cope witt
the trust. Now they are getting fail
prices for their tobacco, and We
do not have to pay any more for the
manufactured article.
