HENDERSON COUNTY APPLES.
Mr.. Cannon Says a Million Bushels in
County; 40 in the Mountains.
News & Observer.)

81 News q Observer
Mr.. A. Cannon, of Horse Shoe, Hen
derson county is in the city to attend
the meeting of the State Board of
Agriculture today, he being the mem
Der from the tenth district.
Mr.. Cannon says that one can hard
lv realize the immensely of the apple
crop in Western North Carolina this
veal and the worst part of it there is
hardly any market for the fruit.
He has just sold the gathering from
one of his orchards about 700 bushels
for which he received the princely sun
twenty-five cents a bushel the buyer
taking the fruit from the trees, doing
the packing and furnishing the bar
rels.
Another one of his neighbors has
something like. three thousand bushels
to dispose of but is only offered TWEEN
ty-ive cents a bushel for the fruit.
HendersOn's Big Crop.
81 honestly believe" said Mr.. Can
non, that there is at least a million
bushels of apples in Henderson county
alone this year and in the great apple
belt covering part of the seventh,
eighth and ninth and all of the tenth
congressional districts between thirty
and forty million bushels of apples
can be gathered this season. But
there is mo market for apples this
year and it is a problem what to do
with the fruit"
Mr.. Cannon says he is informed that
a mountaineer from Yancey county
carried a load of apples to AGheville
last week and only received fifteen
cents a busheI for them, peddling them
from the wagon.
1t is a serious situation and Mr..
Cannon jokingly remarked that he
thinking of ~inaugurating a movement
for everybody to buy q barrel of ap-
ples similar to the buy-a-bale of cot
ton movement to help the situation.
Mr.. Cannon also stated that the
Irish potato crop in the mountains
this year would be heavy but there is
Q slack market for this vegetable also.
The wheat crop in that section this
year was of the very best and the
finest kind of corn crop is in prospect.
1t is very evident that there will be no
starvation in the mountains the COM
ing winter so long as they have plenty
cf corn and wheat for making bread
and there is nothing finer than an
apple pie.

Somewhat handicapped in making a campaign by the fact that she cOnsid- cred the high school had first claim on her attention, Miss Sara NJ. Whitfield, nominee for county superintendent Of schools, last evening expressed her re- gret at not having had the opportunity of visiting every section of the county. It has been in the late afternoon or evenings and during the week ends only that she has discussed good govern ment and school problems for as a member of the high school faculty she declared her time belonged to the boys and girls. It was this keen sense of fairness. this ready recognition of re- sponsibility. characteristic of Miss Whitfield that made her friends urge her to place her name on the ballot. Combined with her devotion to duty, her experience and training qualify her to fill the office. For eight years she has been connected with the local high school previous to which she was as sociated with high schools and graded schools of northeastern and western ! Iowa. Clever, and thoroughly compe- i tent, she has made an enviable reputa [ ton among educators here and else , where

The election of Miss Whitfield would mean placing a competent woman at ! the head of the county schools: it \. would mean that the citizens not only acknowledge woman's right to vote but to hold office and consequently ad- vance WOmans position. Miss Whit field realizes that defeat will retard the feminist movement and for that req son has sought the support of women especially. She has campaigned large ly among them though it was her de- sire to make a more strenuous cam paign and meet personally every voter in the county.

tional? Any restriction limitation is necessarily interference.
 The governor makes this remarkable statement in reference to the law: Though if it were good, and only it's constitutionalty an issue should not hesi tate leave the determination of the to the courts"
 What does this mean, this "If?" That the gov having decided that the law is good, would decide without reference to the that it is constitutional would disregard it if it should be adopted?
 Among the why the governor thinks the is good is because constitution of the proposed of pardon and paroles. consisting of the attorney general, the superintendent of public instruction and citizen member. Saying nothing of the citizen member the governor argues that the attorney general the superintendent of public instruction confined by the duties of their offices that they would not have time attend to the duties of pardons and parole board Are the duties of these officers multifarious and acting than those of the governor? Does he have leisure than they inquire integenty into merits of applications for executive clemency?
 This peculiar objection of the governor the qualifications of the attorney general for member ship such a board ought 0 place the comic supplement:
 The attorney general is elected to superintend the legal of the state, it's officers the interpretation the law actions and conduct defenses in behalf of the commonwealth. Ask him whether not his duties will permit him attend meetings of a board pardons and paroles. And then ask him, and ask yourselves whether II is psychoOgcaly sociologically' that in this peculiar of last occupying position and performing a function all it's where justice is supposed to be tempered with sound and far-seeng mercy where binding rules and confusing technca- ties forgotten. and only the naked truth is sought, trained and ingrained prosecutor learned, grounded and confirmed in the sending his to the rockpile the dungeon the gallows, should st-can sit with absolute fairness and par tiality.

IT'S HUNT OR YOUNG

Almost in the closing hour of the campaign the political situation throughout Arizona is what The Republican predicted it would be at the beginning of the contest-it lies between Governor Hunt and George U Young. The Cameron strength consists of the standpat republican element, and all her how insignificant that two years ago. To it is to be added considerable part--a large m or- ty-of the wet element, and that part of the democ racy that is either reacticnary in sympathy with the opposition to the dry amendment
 The and of this county and of all counties in the state who believe in government by the people and not by machine bosses or corpora ton controlled tools have turned to MT. Young, espe ci4y those who for the dry amendment. There is other to whom they could turn. MT. Cameron ard those who are back of his campaign known to be the most active opponents of the dry amend ment Governor Hunt could hardly declare more eloquenty his opposition to the amendment, than he has done by his studious silence concerning it.
 If the democrats who do not like Hunt who want step put to the waste and incompetency in the management of the states affairs, do not vote for Young, they must bear the nfction of two more years of Hunt. Cameron is impossible.

MONSTER PARADE AT
 TEMPE FOR PROHIBITION
More Than Three Hundred Children and Adults in Line

Special to The Republican,
 TEMPE, Nov. 1-No greater appeal was ever made in Tempe for the pro- hibition cause than that of this af- ternoOn, when over three hundred Sunday school children and church members, lead by the Tempe band, paraded on Eighth street and Mill avenue, flourishing banners and flags and attracting a crowd to the air dome where a monster Arizona Dry meeting was conducted. The pro cession, headed by the band, then fol- lowed by nearly 200 children of all ages and sizes, then the older church members and finally large number of buggies and automobiles, started in parade at the Methodist church on East Eighth street, went west to Mill avenue and then north to the airdome and scene of the afternoon meeting
 Rev. Dr. Ray C. Harker, pastor of the First Methodist church at Phoe- nix, was the speaker of the afternoon and talked for nearly an hour on the prohibition cause.
 Prohibition Day was generally ob- served at all of the local churches this morning. Sunday school opened with special programs touching on the prohibition question. The morn ing worship services were all conduct ed with Prohibition Day as the theme. A special sermon on the tenn perance cause, was given by each pastor.
 The days program came to a close this evening with another big rally of the temperance workers of the town lat the new Methodist church. The auditorium was filled to it's capacity and many were forced to remain standing through the meeting Rev, e. J. Hall delivered the address of the evening.

A Board of Pardons and Paroles

In every verbal published statement by Gov Hunt he furnishes fresh proof of his miscon- ception of his high duties. In published address ITO the People of Arizona the governor attacks the referred law, 300-3O1, creating board of pardons paroles, whose recommendations only, the governor may grant reprieves, commissions par dOns and paroles. He pleads that he may be al lowed retain the power which he has grossly abused during the last three years, responsibility which almost any other governor would gladly share with such board the act creates.
 The governor thinks the is unconstitutional. He makes the mistake Of believing that the power which he has exercised has been "secured' to him by the constitution. On the contrary, the constu- tion left it purposely rather insecure by providing that it might be limited restricted by legislation, such the legislature enacted the governors veto It is proposed only to restrict limit the power of the governor He will still grant all the repreves etc, that will be granted The governor is only to be restricted the board will say to him when the power shall not be exercised We would ask the what sort of restriction limita tion, interfering in the slightest degree with his dom of action, in his opnion would be constitu-

Non-Partisan Candidates

The Republican feels a pride in it's selection of candidates whose names will appear the non partisan tickets for justices of the supreme court and the state tax commission Thomas Armstrong, Jr, and Walter Bennett both republicans, and P. H. Hayes progressive of the highest type of lawyers and citizens. None of them owes his nomination to politics and of them has taken active part politics beyond that which it is the duty of every good citizen take. Not of them has been associated with a party machine All are learned in the law of judicial temperament and of the highest integrity.
 The Republicans candidates for the mission are both successful business men, Frank II. Parker by experience is well fitted for position and J. F.. Suits success in the management of his own extensive affairs is an earnest of the ability with which he would transact the really most i'm portant business of the state.
 The corporation commission is not non:partisan, but it ought to be. The Republican, in recognition crat reelection because it is that Arizona will badly need him the commission It knows that there is not another man in Arizona well qualified The progressive candidate, F. P. Moore, of Ccchse county, though with less technical expe- rence than MT. Jones' is trained and successful business man and free from any influence which would interfere with his proper discharge of the duties of commissioner
 We would voters that the corporation mission is of the points of attack, in fact the special point of attack by those who seeking special privilege. The defeat of MT. Jones is espe cially desired by these interests. Though he nominated by larger vote than any other cand- date in his own party for the commission received, many democrats, who pretend to support him, conspiring for his defeat. With both Mir JCnes and MT Moore the commission, the special in terests will seek in vain.
