FRUIT GROWERS
 MAKE PROTEST
Oppose Seizure of Sweat ed Oranges In Illinois and Say Such Practice Will Work Injustice on California Industry.

LOS ANGELES. Dec 25.-The rec ent seizure in Illinois of eight carloads of California oranges, which had been submitted to the sweating process, by the federal government on the charge that they had "been artificially colored to conceal inferiOrity has aroused strong protest from the fruit growers of California The pure food branch of the department Of agricul- ture is seeking the right to destroy the fruit thus seized, and the case is be- ing argued this week before the Chica- go courts.
 The California growers are repre- scented in the matter through the at torneys oI the Southern California Fruit exchange, as we'll as several other large shippers of California citrus fruits The California develop ment board of San Francisco also is taking an active interest in the case the outcome of which means much to California fruit growers. -..e
 This case is of vital importance" said A. H. Stewart. president of the Stewart Fruit company, this morning. If the shipment of sweatet fruit is forbidden. it is bound to work great hardship on the citrus industry of this state. It will mean that much fruit which is now disposed of in the Christ mas market in the east will have to be held until February 1. at least, thus adding seriously to the problem of shipping and selling the naval orange crop.
 Tt is impossible to conceive how anything harmful can be attributed to the process of sweating. Il has been done for 20 years with California fruit, both with oranges and lemons, and the same process is everywhere used to color bananas. It consists of nothing more or less than placing the fruit in 1 closed room and submitting it to a
 heat of about go degrees for 24 hours
 or so. By this process the color of the
 skin of the fruit is changed It is well known that the oranges of Tulare county still retain the green color of 1 the skin for some time after the fruit is l fairly sweet and palatable. The sweat 1 ing simply hastens the coloring process 1 and it is impossible to see how it could i render it harmful.
 l There has never been complaint i from the Eastern trade in regard tc l the process. It was originally ac- complished by shipping the fruit ir tightly closed cars all the way to the | East
 1 If the ruling that the government
 seeks to put into effect it will mear
 that much of the northern orange crop. which no wis disposed of in the l Christmas market will come into di.
 rect competition with the southern 1 fruit. The shipping problem is | serious enough now without the l adding of this complication
 The sweated fruit is not inferior
 in any sense of the word and is
 strongly in demand by the Easterr | trade. Every effort will be made tt
 defeat this move of the department
 of agriculture by those interested 1T 1 the California citrus industry"

CHRISTMAS DAY
 PASSED QUIETLY
Weather Ideal and Crowds Were Out Enjoying a Sunshiney Christmas Many Gatherings During Day.

The Christmas spirit was regnant in Phoenix yesterday Christmas und- CT the sunshine is an unusual thing to everybody except those who live in Phoenix. The stranger within the gates of the city yesterady enjoyed possibly the finest Christmas weather ever. The day was ideal There were many people on the streets all day long. In the morning some at tended the church services, while all the Knights Templar attended the Christmas services in the Castle.
 There were many home dinners at midday and a large number of fam fly gatherings in the afternoon. In the evening the lights burst forth from the windows of many a comfort able home in the city and ere the blinds were drawn, the multi -colored lights and candles showed the child ren gathered aroung Christmas trees.
 The afternoon matinee was well at tended, and many people went to the moving picture shows in the after noon also, while still others taking ad- vantage of the splendid weather went auto riding, or buggy riding. At night the theaters were again overcrowded.
 Withal, this even though the crowds were on the streets morning noon and night, the entire attitude bespoke in innate law abiding quality of the people both residents and visitors. Very little drunkenness was seen and the police made but few arrests.
 The stores and offices were closed all day in honor of the holiday. The postoffice opened a short while and many packages were delivered.

CHINESE LOGIC.

Bishop M S Lewis of Foo Chow, urging recognition of the Chinece re- public at a luncheon at thme Union League in Philadelphia, told a little story illustrative of Chinese unworld- hness.
 "A gentleman" he said, entered a Chinese shop to purchase tea. He found, to his amazement, that five pounds of a certain tea cast S2.50, while ten pounds of the same brand cost $7.50.
 The gentleman ridiculed these il- logical prices, but the shopkeeper, on the contrary, insisted that he was act ing in a perfectly logical way. As he put it:
