blunder made last night by the South

trated today as a result of clever de-
tective work by four members of the

The blunder will in all probability
develop in legal action against the
four officers as Mr.. Pridmore is
planning to file suit against them for
searching his home without war
rant.
Shortly before u o'clock Tuesday
night Mr.. and Mrs. Pridmore were
aroused by a knock at the door. Mr..
PridmOre inquired what was wanted
and was told that a friend of the
caller was boarding at the house and
was wanted. When told that no one
boarded there the man outside the
door insisted and declared that un-
less the door was opened he would
make a forcible entrance.
Mr.. Pridmore asked the man to
wait until he dressed but while doing

"NeighbOring States"

CHAPEL HILL, n. c.. June g.
I'VE cannot for our safety's sake allow
the supreme industrial power or the
controlling commercial power to rest
in the hands of one or a few. Credit,
indeed, may be or rather should be,
given to men of quick conscience and
sincere patriotism who show true cit
izenship at the head of large affairs,
but even on their honorable hands the
nation may not put rulership over an
industry or a branch OF commerce.
1T is not the genius OF America
to force her will anywhere by power
Of arms. 1t is not within the moral
purview of America TO dictate by
strength the policy of any friendly
and neighbOrly state"
These sentiments were expressed
here today by Secretary of Commerce
William c. Redfield on the indstrial
and commercial affairs of the United
States and the relations OF their coun-
try with neighboring government

STRAWBERRY MARKETS SHAT
TERED DURING PAST FEW DAYS

Spokane, May 15.-If Northwestern
Strawberries pull through their brief
season without serious disaster, it will
be sensational achievement for CO.
operative marketing on a big scale
through centralized agency. This
seems to be the situation Just now, at
any rate. Circumstances are not aus.
picious, and the great bulk of the ber-
ries are in the hands of the growers
selling organization.
Every market which can logically be
considered tributary to the strawberry
districts of the Northwest has been
shattered during the past few days by
regular cannOnade of carload ship
ments from California.
Never before have California straw
berries arrived in such enormous guam
But, not content, as heretofore, to ap-
pease the appetites of the buyers, Cali
fornia has proceeded to satiate them
and at the very time when Northwest
ern Strawberries are making their de-
but. The buyers prefer the home prod
uct but are surfeited with the earlier
arrival.
This unprecedented condition is due
not only to the fact that the Florin dis
trict has had an increased output this
year, but also to the further fact that
Fresno and Newcastle are shipping for
the first time. California Strawberries
are now selling for 10 cents a box to
two boxes for 25 cents, retail here.
Advices received by the North Pa
cific Fruit Distributors May 12 are
that 1000 to 5000 crates are being
received daily in Seattle with pros
pect of the market going to pieces at
any time, that ear day is arriving
at Vancouver, B. c., with the wholesale
price promising to drop to SIPS, that
ear daily is going into Butte, and
that further east, as in the case Of
Grand Forks, N. D., the market is beset
both by California berries and by ship
ments from Tennessee and Arkansas,
while at Calgary, Alberta, merely an
other instance, the market has been
filled up all week from California, with
no relief in sight.
And this is the state of affairs which
the Girst full carload shipment from
the Kennewick- Richland district May
IA found. That section began less than
carload shipments May /. Walla Walla
followed May s, and Hood River, Mil
ton and Underwood, May 8. Within a
short time berries from Salem and other
localities will be seeking an outlet also.
