What! Are not the ambassadors of severelgn states at Washington to be heard as representatives of their respective governments touching affairs connect ed with the relations of those gov ernments to the one over which the president is called to preside? Are senators to be denied a hearing when they tender counsel to the president concerning his duty as to an emer gency office? Or is the president to set up his own idea of what may con stitute an emergency office; in any sovereign state, without the advice and consent of the senators of that state? The Florida senators did not take thtir candidates to the White House with them. They had conced ed the right of the president to draw the line at the actual and visible presence. Rut the? were doubtless unprepared for the announcement that they themselves could not be heard In support of the claims of their friends. We are rather inclined to the be lief that this innovation will meet the approval of public opinion. Hut there need be no doubt as to what effect It will have upon the Senate. And there need be none as to the depress ing effect it will have upon the my riad Democrats who have been hop ing that Mr. Wilson may suspend the provided with necessary buildings, on long time and easy terms, to Buch men as can meet the tests. If the movement has attained such propor tions as tht Ottawa officials are seek ing to indica.e by implication, it is worth looking after. We might not j miss the men. Hut tt 10.000.000 would mean quite a 'oss even for so rich a 1 country as this. ; and declared that this nation is pe culiarly fitted In standing and loca tion to take this stand boldly."

Home stock has been received from Hood Ulver and White Salmon during the last few days that will net the shipper a loss to the amount of the frelsht charges. One shipper, who Is well known at The fialles, sent forward apples that have on an average of perhaps one apple to the box that Is nenner rotten nor specked. Natural ly this Is, having an elTect on the trade. Most of the apples now helng offer ed are of small size and big fruit Is really scarce and In demand. There Is but little call for apples that are smaller than the 4 12 tier size, but a large percent of the recent arrivals nn 5 eitr to the box and are really of poor grade too. Apple handlers are making com plaint sliout this sort of stock being shipped, ss it ruins the trrftje for good fruit. They have sent hundreds of letters to the country telling them not to send forward such supplies, bnt they continue to come and must be handled.
