Under the above raptlon the Ob server of August 3 attempted to Justify the work done by the recent so-called "county assembly," held at Grants Pass on the 16th day of July, 1910, and in a very shrewd way places itself In a position to class all who would oppose the assembly plan as followers of and writers for Sen ator Bourne. We follow the dictates of no man, nor are we writing at the Instance or request of Jonathan Bourne. There is such a thing as a man having an opinion of his own, which opinion Is naturally and originally opposed to any attempt on the part of any leader or leaders to either disfranchise the people, or dictate to them directly or indirectly how or for whom their votes shall be cast. To me the will of the people is law. I am a republican. I wish to vote my own convictions. I object to any unauthorized convention setting up a list of candidates and saying to me: "Here, vote for them." I have no candidate in whose interest this article is written. Neither am I a candidate for the present or In ex pectancy. But inasmuch as we have a carefully prepared primary election law which lays down the method In detail whereby all candidates for office shall be nominated. It Is my contention that any attempt to evade that law Is wrong In principle and should not be tolerated. The law may not- be perfect, but it directs the method of making nominations and thereby forbids any other method. Will the exponents of the assembly plan explain Just what you expect to gain by the methods pursued In your recent meeting In which you took the naming of candidates for county office out of the hands of the people? Where do you get one single hint of authority for what you did? Did you have any hidden pur pose for doing It and if not, why did you do it at all? We love the old republican party for what It has done In the past, and we protest against political methods which shall give It an In glorious future, but if we would have it live to future usefulness we must denounce "snap Judgments" of every kind. We must give to the people an open, frank and free op portunity to express their will, and the acts of the party must rest there on. The people are on the alert for crookedness In public, places, where graft and political corruption are openly charged. They are bit terly opposed to the political boss or self-appointed leaders, and when any number of men come together and act without authority, the peo ple are entitled to know why. The life of the republican party rests at this time upon a "square deal," and In order that we may fully understand the situation, so as to vote Intelligently, we Invite a full, free and fair discussion of thU question. We nsk you to come di rect to the Issue, without coupling It with the vices of some man whom yon Hope to defeat next year, but tell us just why you did that, when the primary law provided other wise? V 1.IF1M.OXC. UKPrni.lC.W. President Will Visit Panama Canal. A dispatch from Beverly, Mass., the summer home of Mr. Taft, says that It has not yet been determined on what date the president will leave for his proposed visit to the Panama canal, but the expectation is that he will depart on the day after the November elections. He will probably sail from Norfolk on one of the armored cruisers or battle i ships of the Atlantic fleet. Prior to this trip the president will be very busy with administrative affairs and it is on this account that he has can celled engagements and arranged ' with Senator Crane to visit the west iThe understanding is that the sena tor will depart within a few weeks and that he will visit Minnesota, i Montana, Wisconsin and Washing ton, among other states, for the pur pose of attempting to patch up dif ferences In republican ranks. Rome Suggestions to Peach Growers. (By A. C. True, U. S. Department of Agriculture.) First Year. Select a well-drained field, one that also has good air drainage, high than the surrounding land if possible. If possible have the field some dis tance from other orchards. Lime the soil before planting, un less sure that it Is not needed. Buy good thrifty trees of a nurs eryman who Is not only honest, but intelligent one who knows the dis eases of the peach, so that he will not be propagating diseased trees. Remove the borers, If there are any. Prune to a whip, or nearly so. Dip In lime, sulphur and salt be fore setting. Plant far enough apart so that It will be easy to drive through when spraying. Fertilize well and plant corn or other tilled crops between the trees. Prune In June, so as to start the formation of the heads. Remove the borers in the fall. Spray the next spring. Subsequent Years. Prune every year, doing some headlng-ln as well as thinning out. Spray thoroughly every spring be fore the buds swell. Till every year, beginning early In the season and stopping early. Fertilize liberally with phosphoric acid and potash, particularly with potash. If barnyard manure is used, also apply muriate of potash. Remove the borers every fall and again in the spring. After having given this good care, promptly remove all sick trees. Thin the fruit when necessary. Grade the fruit carefully. Put up the first quality in a package that differs from that used for the poorer grades. If the peach orchard is neglected In order to care for the corn crop, the profits must be expected to come from the corn. A Vital Point. The most delicate part of a bahy j Is Its bowels.

Burke, County Fruit Inspector, Grants Pass, Oregou. You are hereby instructed to notify all fruit dealers in your county that the provisions of the law in regard to the sale of insect infested fruit in Josephine county will be strictly enforced. You will especially call the attention of all fruit deal ers to the act or the legislature entitled "An act to prevent the false branding or marking of, or false representation with reference to fruits grown in the state of Oregon, or elsewhere, and provide penalties for the violation thereof." Section 1 provides as follows: Any person, firm, assof ciation or corporation engaged in growing, selling or packing green fruits within the state of Oregon shall be required, upon packing any such fruits for market, whether intended for sale within or without the state of Oregon, to stamp, mark or label plainly on the outside of every box or package of green fruit so packed the name and postoffice address of the person, firm, association or corporation packing the same; provided further, that when the grower of such fruit be other than the packer than the same, the name and postoffice address of such grower shall also prominently appear upon such box or package as the grower of such fruit. Sections 2 and 3 of the same act say what is unlawful when a dealer may falsely vend friiit in a package. Section 4 says: Any person violating any of the provi sions of this act shall be deemed guilty of a misdemeanor and, upon conviction thereof, shall be punished by a fine of not less that $5 or more than $500, or by both such fine and imprisonment in the county jail not less than ten days nor more than one hundred days, or by both such fine and imprisonment, at the discretion of the court. To raise the standard of better fruit the provisions of this act for marketing packages must be obeyed. Dealers should co-operate with the inspector for the "enforcement of this act. However, should a dealer ignore the law, vou are required to report the same with the evidence and I will insist that the district attornev proceed under the law to impose the penalty. ' A. II.

II. Kinney Spcitkw WNely. Ex-Mayor Kinney, who Is In the east, wrote a letter last month to Rev. Hohert McLean, of this city, from Cleveland, Ohio. In which he says : "We spent n pleasant day at Hil lings, Men:. It Is a delightful coun try because they have Irrigation. 1 wish some of the farmers near Grants Pass who are holding back irrigation there could make a trip to Hllllnts. 1 saw one piece of land that the owners 'did not need Irri tation for It,' 'would not mortcace his land to a water company.' The land Is practically a desert surround ed by beautiful fields. The Irritated land are worth $ 1 0 " per acre, but the owner of the desert land can not sell It for $in. as the ditch Is all taken and he inn neither tet water for love or money. I thought of some of our neighbors and wonder ed If they would play the same fool trl"k."
