When you go to vote next Tues
day you will find a way down or
the bottom of your ballot a place
to vote for or against township or.
ganization in Benton county. Very
few of the voters have heard any
arguments for or against this meas
ure, it seems, and are. therefore,
undecided. 1t is to be noted, how.
ever, that practically everyone who
has given the matter any study adj
wise voting against it-not against
township organization as a princi-
pie but because of the impractical
bility of it in Benton county9at this
time, the chief reason advanced be-
ing that the county is too sparsely
settled and that the overhead
charge on that account would be
burdensome And, Furthermore, if
once on the statute books there is
no provision for repeal should the
measure prove obnoxious.

BIG POLITICAL NOISE
WILL SOON SUBSIDE

The big political Campaign that
has held the center Of the Ameri-
can stage for the last four or five
months, with the whole voting pop
ulation as the audience, will ter
inmate next Tuesday, when the
electorate will silently but conclu-
sively say who shall conduct the
various offices, from the president
of the United States down, for the
next two or four years, as the case
may be.
Everybody knows who will win,
but there seems to be some difficult
ty in agreeing on the who" But
the II told you SOL, boys will put
in a busy day Wednesday. The
fact is, everybody is guessing and
nobody knows, so far as state or
national affairs are concerned. The
scope is too large for any human
mind to grasp intelligently. When
it comes to county affairs it is
possible for a man who travels
around much to BET pretty good
drift of things and to guess fair
Iy accurately.

HANFORD APPLES
EXCITE NEW YORK

Dissatisfied with the pr ice being
offered by the local apple buyers, a
few of the growers at Hanford,
consisting of V. H. Ferguson, A. G..
Evett, C. M. Rolph, Norman Anglin,
B. G. Root, Miss Elizabeth Grant,
G. T. Slavens, Buckholdt Bros, Ag-
athon Land company and Julius
Macomber, punched together enough
apples to make up a car and started
it along to feel out the market in
faraway New York. 1t was kind
of scout, because if it had good
luck it was probable that several
more cars would follow. The car
contained 1893 boxes of fancy and
extra fancy Rome Beauties and
Winesaps, and was consigned to
Sgobel & Day, fruit distributors.
The letter announcing the arrival
of the car in New York was re-
ceived by the growers this week.
BY permission of the shippers the
following is quoted from the letter:
"Your fruit is beautiful and we
don't want to handle any better.

came out of that car. The extra
fancy, of course, we mean. The
color was good and both ends of
those apples showed life and care
in the growing" After COZ. 80 at
tention to theiIfact that it was some
what early back there for Romes.
they say: However, there is al
ways good demand for them for
baking, but they want the big ones.
IF this car is a specimen of the
apples we are going to receive from
you, and possibly your whole Sec
ton, then we are mighty glad to
get in there. Your apples excited
the admiration Of other people on
the wharf and we should not be
surprised if they took your name
and address and drop you line,
even if such q course is not consid-
cred just the right thing in the
trade. But it makes no difference
we are going to keep on doing our
utmost and we shall try to please
YOU"
Part Of the apples had been sold
at the time Of writing the letter
and the price ranged from $1.82 to
$3.50 per box for those that were
sold, and Sgobel & Day said they
felt confident that the price for the
balance would be equally as good.
The freight from Hanford to New
York is about so cents a box.
