A movement has been inaugurated in the Santa Clara valley which Is one of Lho most Important and far reaching that has ever been started on the coast, and will probably Include the interests f the entire coast. A meeting of the growers of the Santa Clara valley was held In San Jose last Saturday ana all those present pledged themselves not to sell any of their prunes without first consulting the executive committee of live members, consisting of E. A. Hayes, C. D. Harvey, Jowph H. Rueker, P. W. Crandall, and Colonel Hersey, which was appointed at the meeting. At a meeting held the previous week a com mittee was appointed to form some plan of co-operation. Following Is the re port of the committee which appeared In the San Jose Mercury: "A careful canvass of the various districts In the county makes it ab solutely certain that there cannot be . more than 1000 carloads of prunes in this valley; the San Joaquin valley Is practically clear of fruit; there are some prunes In the northern counties, and about 400 carloads in Oregon and Washington. "We feel warranted In stating from the information wo have received from the canvass made during the past week that there are not to exceed KJ00 car loads of prunes of all kinds upon the 1'aciflo coast. The eastern market Is also bare of any large Btocks. Prom information received from those who have been over the market in the east very recently we are able to state with confidence that probably never at this time of year have the stocks of prunes In the eastern markets been so light as now. It should also be stated that neither here nor tn the east are there any large stocks of dried fruits of any kind It is also to bo considered thut none of the speculative packing inter ests have any considerable stocks of prunes now on hand, and If they con tinue the business as they are now do ing it they may go out and buy tho growers. "In view of those facts the situation ought to be extremely strong, and would be but for the attitude of the prune grower himself. Certain com mercial packers are offering ridicu lously low prices for comparatively small lots on prunes in the hands of tho growers, and owing to the neces sities, or supioscd necessities, of such growers, aro picking up quito a ton nago of prunes and placing them on the markot in the east in sullicient quantities to destroy any Immediate proHpecl of Improvement In demand or price. The buyer In the east has been ready to look for a decided slump In the price, and Is actually afraid to buy, fearing that the price will go still lower and that ho may have prunes on his hands that ho has paid more for than he can realize on at at a pro.lt. "In ordor to meet the present situa tion wo suggest (hat a temorary asso ciation of such of the prune growers as may be induced to co-operato be or ganlxed, pledged to atiind together and tako such action as from time to time Is doomed for the interests of all con cerned; that this association and Its lute rests be under the control of an ex ecutive committee of five, to be selected by such association, with full power to act tn the M ay of Axing prices, deter mining tho" quantity of prunes to be offered at any one time, and any other details necessary to lie considered, and also with power to issue warehouse re ceipts and buy In on behalf of the Asso ciation sucn prunes as may bo offered at prices below what the association feels willing to sell for. We are con Tlnced that only by some such proced ure as this can the market be steadied and tho prune growers of this valley se cure for their prunes such prices as the conditions warrant. "K. W. Craudall, manager, Sorosia Fruit Company;' S. 0. Kodeok, secro tiry C. K. O. Union: California Fruit Knehange, by C. I. Harvey; E. A. Hayes, Kdenvale Fruit Company." The plan of action rewtved upon was for the growers to combine, to put their prunes into a warehouse or warehouses under the control of the committee, and for the executive committee to hold the fruit to dispose of at such time and at such prices as should be by them deemed advisable. In the case of those growers who must realize on their fruit at once, or within the next month or so, the committee will buy tn their prunes at current market price, issuing ware house receipts, each of those concerned being willing to stand the share of risk sustained In thus buying at market rates from those who must sell. In this way the expectation is that the market will be steadied, inasmuch as these small lots, instead of being bought by packers to be sent out on the market to break it, will have the opposite effect of strengthening It. MR. OILK'S OPINION. Manager H. S. Gile, of the Willam ette Valley Prune Association, was seen yesterday In regard to the action of the Santa Clara growers, and talked very hopefully of the result of the movement, He said: "As is well known, we now control about 85 per cent of the prunes remaining in grow ers hands In the state, which is only about 300 cars, or 100 cars less than the estimate made by the California grow ers. We have been in correspondence with them, and while we have no defi nite understanding, yet they know they can depend upon us for co-operation and that we control at least three- fourths of the present supply on hand. I believe the movement will be of im mediate and far reaching benefit to the market, and look for an active demand to spring up immediately. They couldn't have chosen five better men In in the entire state than those named for the executive committee, and I have great confidence in their work." Twenty Yera Trial. Tuere are lots of good thin its the doc tors know nothing about. We fre quently cure people of disease after the doctors have given them un. If the diseuse comes from overwork, dissipa tion or exposure, causing weak and watery blood and loss of flesh and strength, we havo the one sure remedy in Dr. G unn's Mood and Nerve Tonic. Those tablets taken with meals turn the food into rich red blood, making strong, steady nerves, and increasing the strength, building up solid flesh at the rate of 1 to 3 lbs per week. This means neaith. for nervous prostra tion, loss of memory, or a pale, sallow complexion, a better remedy was never maue. Doctors Know nothing about this remedy only the fact that we make cures; as we have been doing this for twenty years we know our method to I the right one.

JOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO l'rofessor McEwen, who begins a week engagement at the Opera Houae Monday, Jan. 25, Is handicapped by peculiar circumstances. His reputa tion as a hypnotist is so great that his talents along other lines are com pletely overshadowed. As a matter of fact, few are aware that In his feats of legerdomain ho is without a peer. There is nothing Herrmann, the wiz ard, or Heller, ever did that he does not easily duplicate and the hundreds of things ho does that they nover thought of are more wonderful than anything they ever done. When he goes down in the audience and picks a llvo canary bird from some lady's hair, makes it disappear and appear again In the most unexpected places and finally completes the pretty deception by pull ing It not only In two but Into two lively canaries, and then shows them to ycu in a cage which he has never been nenr, the mind is utterly bewil dered. This U one of the many, as dillkuilt tricks, and his feats of palming j are simply Indescribable.
