' -.000.0 TEIt ACRE. . Apple land at $2,000 per acre reads like a fairy1 tale but this price has been paid In' several Sections of the Northwest. This price was recently of fered J. L. Dumas of Duyton, Wash ington and he refused. Mr. Dumas has 100 acres in winter apples. From this tract for the year 1907' he marketed 84,000 boxes, 1908 ne marketed ovor ,3C,000 boxes for which he receive.1 $1,25 per box. We are not informed what the 1907 crop brought but even averaging the two crops at $1,00 , er box and valuing his land ou a bn.'U of $2,000 per, acre his Income for two uccesstve years was equivalent ,to 17 per cent gross on this Investment.

A commission without the power to fix rates wfll have little ef fect In solving the transportation prob leav which is the- greatest question which our country now has to deal with and do Justice to all concerned. Several years ago there was consider able talk along the - lines of govern ment ownership of railroads, but the activity Jn an" attempt to adjust and regulate the railroads during the Roosevelt administration, the govern ment ownership was almost lost sight of but if the recent decision of the U. S. Supreme Court taeans that the people have lost what thejAthought they had gained, the old question may be revived. The majority of our peo ple do not take -kindly to government ownership1 6 Jt It might be made one of the leading political questions of our. nation.
