"TOO UTTKW.Y UNKF.LIAUL.U FOK ANY U8E." Thnt Is tbo verdict or more thuu ono couservatlvo busluess mau on tho Statesman aud tho assertion is backed by personal interviews. The climax of its career as ti liar botli great and small was capped by its frantic oflert to Hell a few papers with a Are fake, which only re sulted in throwing a number of women Into hysterics. Its reputation as a foolish, irrespon nlble juvenile liar has been long well established. It could add nothing to that except the added disgust of creating a malicious uncertainty that will cost business interests not a little. Unless the most vigor ous steps nro taken insurance will bo advanced all around. The city coun cil and board of trado should promptly act to save au advance of rates. Tho JouitNAii believes in making a daily emphatic protest against any udvnnce of rates In any torm as it believes rates in Salem should be tho lowest of any in Ore gon. If the Statesman desired to benefit the city why did It not set the fire in its own block, burn its own business place and scud abroad the report that its office was gutted and that It hud retired from business. The lo would have come home to roost then. It could have rates in its own block raised aud get the benellt of ita own lying. It did not waut that; a llargouerally wants to hurt homo one else. The perfect brutality of scaring women and children with such a clumsy fake will not soon pass out of themiudsoftho people. Tho cow Snrdly Inhumanity of throwing women into hysterics by circulating a report that three well known citi ieus were buried under burning walls might be thought funny in a small rural village; but in n city tho size of Salem, where people cannot but rely some on dastardly hoax. papers, it was a Tiia STATIW3IAN HKl.lINO INSURANCE XUHlUUltS. Till! Seelnp a chunco to curry favor with another corporation, tho States man Irucculetitly came to tho rescue of tho Pacific Union Insurance trust with its lire fake Saturday. These San Francisco insurance pirates wero In the city and had just worked tho same kind of an outrago on Tacoma laud the Statesman, ns it always does, played willingly into tho hands of tho robbers. Mapping out the city, HeUing a price on eacli man's head, which ho must pay or no company on the coast is allowed to Insure his property at all, these tools of the robhor trust wanted a glaring account of tho city's helpless condition written up and got it got got it dirt cheap at tho hands of tho Stntesmau, that is now crawfishing to savo its lost influence with Salem business men. Every ten-year-old boy knows that our city is not In the helpless condition pictured by tho Statesman. Every child knows that not even a China shanty can be burned In this city or has been burned in years, to euy nothing of tho possibility of burning seven blocks. No such a fire has started in tills city in years that was not put out In three min utes. It was a stupid monumental lie to help an outsldo robber com bine. The trust has now cot In Its work. The assurances of tho Sunday States man from "intereseed sources" that "there will bo no raise In insurance rates" is a fiat lie published by u concern that Is to ull outside appear ances at least In "cahoots" with the trust. When a trust does not put up rates on a city liko tills, it will bo time to usher In the mllounium on earth. Tho Jouhnai. docs not pro pose to help tho trust. Tho States man Is plainly Its cheap tool. The Statesman claims to have assuranced from "interested sources" that the insurance robbers have only charitable instincts towards our city. All its information Is from "inter ested flources." T'liero Is nothing "disinterested" about U. It is always "Interested." It Ih "inter ested" in this case. Its interest is not tiiut of Salem business men. Ita Interest Is the interest of tho robber trust ut San Francisco. Jlariou County Fruit Orowrr. Tho third quarterly meeting of tho Marlon County Fruit Growers' association was held ut Wood burn, Tuesday, July 21. Whilo tho attendance was not lar;e, tho various sections of tho county wero represented and tho meeting was one of more than usual Intercut. Pres. Uubcock being absent, Mr. SeUlempJr, tho pioneer nurseryman and fruit growor, was called upon to preside. The secre Uiry then road "Horticultural Notes," being tho paper prepared by Mr. 8. A. Clarke, who asked to be excused in ersm on account of ill lieultli. The rapcr was I merest luff and elicited discussion. Dr. F. 8. Mattisou then rend n paper on tho new bird law aud its relation to the fruit Industry. While Mr. MaU tcfou in his paper objected to some of Hie minor details of tho law, ho thought In tho main tho birds It seeks to protect aro very useful ns insect destroyers, aud in considera tion of their labors should have legal protection. We can well aflord to raise fruit enough for our selves and the birds too. It should be amended to favor taxidermists, who prepare them for use for educa tional purposes, and to include other valuabre species not namvd in tho law; also to make birds tho property of those upon whoso premises thoy arc found. ArTKHNOoN. Mr. H. S. Jory, who was on tho program for a paper ou marketlug and packing green and dried fruits, being absent and his paper not ap pearing, tho association proceeded to tho discussion of miscellaneous top ics of Interest to fruit growers. Concluding the discussion, the asso ciation proceeded to tho matter of exhibits at tho stato fair and Port land exposition, which was disposed of by appointing a committee of three Salem citizens to look after that Important subject. Committee, John VauEatou, E. Hofer, F. J. Reatty. Tho constitution was amended to provido for an executive committee to prepare programs, arrange for pluce of meeting, etc Tho follow ing committee wus appointed tem tem eorarily: Chas. Long, Sllvorton; M W. Gumm, Salem; Hugh Harri son, JefTerson. After the meeting adjourned tho members wero taken through the exteuslvo nurseries of Mr. Settlo meir. Thoy found this nursery well kept, free from Insects of any klud, aud In healthy condition. Tho ab sence of Die green aphis, so injurious to youug apple trees, was especially noted. We were told that tho only remedy applied was vigilance, and as soon as a leaf showed signs of tho pest it was dipped in a vessel of clear coal oil. While this remedy was sovero, and sometimes killed tho youug tree, it was sure death to the aphis aud proveuted its spreading. Tho foreman said better a dead treo than a liyo aphis, as ono aphis left alone would soon breed millions. The following names wero added to tho list of membership: T. M. Hicks, J. R. Jordan, W. M. Gumm, F. C. Walker, W. B. Fout. FROM GLYMCR. Miss Estella Gri filth is visiting her sister, Mrs. Peebles, of McMiun ville. Chas. E. Short has returned from his visit to Goldeudalo Washington.

Durst: "Mentally ho was a man of fair attainments, his mind being far above tho averuge, and hud ho pos sessed the aggressive disposition ot some, would have rcuched somo of the highest positions within tho gift of his fellow citizens.

Tho attention of Lieutouant Flnloy, weather ofttjcr, was called Satur day to a theory advanced In a tulegraphlo dispatch to account for tho hot wuvo now visiting Southern California. Tho theory was to tho ofi'eot that the lako at Sultou had probubly cooled tho air in tho Interior, and this had the ofleot of diminishing tho aca breezes aud making the section around San Bernurdlno so warm. Lieutenant Flnloy says: "Well, tho lako Is undoubtedly thoro, but tho only oflcct it has la to iucrcuso tho heat rather than to lower It. Why? Well, It token a great amount of heat to causo rapid evaporation, aud when once the at mosphoro le charged with tho vapor of wator It retains more licat Hum If It wero dry.
