UTILITY NOT BEAUTY

Seedless Apples on Blossomless Trees are Fx-hibited at World's Fair.

Sharing honors with the wireless tele-graph, smokeless coal and miceobelppswater atho World's Fair is an exhibit ofseedless apples. California contributedsome seedless oranges and Florida seed-less pear, but it remained for Coloradoto produce the apple without core.

Not only has this tree an absence ofseed, but the tree upon which it is grownis blossomless. Mr. John F. Spencer ofGrand Junction is father of the specießand he says that the seedless apple is al-so immune from the ravages of insects.

Hoiticulturists who visit' the World'sFair are greatly interested in the exhib-it, as the culture of the fruit is regardedas an important discovery. Mr. Spenceris now experimenting with the variousvariety of apples and he believes that hecan develop a seedless Winesap, a seed-less Gano and other favorite species. Ifhe is successful it is likely that otherfruit growers willfollow his excmple.

It is claimed that the seedless apple isnot hurt by the frost because it has noblossoms. It is a hardy grower andthrives abundantly in the Colorado cli-mate. These advantages in its behalfrecommend it to all orchardists.

The Spencer display is made in theColorado exhibit in the Palace of Horti-culture. Several bushels of the fruit arein cold storage and the supply is con-stantly kept fresh.

ABERDEEN, WASHINGTON, THURSDAY, JUNE 9, 1904.

SEEK DILIGENTLYSEVERAL LOST IN OLYMPICS.

FOUL PLAY.

The Quinault Country the Scence of the

Mystery. Prosecuting Attorney Heath is

Anxious For Information That Will Leadto Discovery of Miscreant.

Private information from Quinault isto the effect that all hopes of rinding thelost man Richfield has been abandonedin that vicinity. This adds anotherchapter to the list of "missing" in thewilds of the Olympic peninsula.

Prosecuting Attorney Heath is anxiousto get all the information possible, hopingto get sufficient to take action.

Three years ago this summer a Ger-man was found dead on the trail lead-ing from the Queets to the Hoh liverwith a bullet hole through his bodywhich undoubtedly ranged from theback forward. The undoubted victimot foul play was little known, and theincident was soon apparently forgotten.

A few months afterwards, or to be moredefinite, 011 December 23. 1901. DanielA. Rust, who has been in the emplor ofthe Olympic Oil company at Copalis,left that ooint to visit the supposed oilfields at La I'usii, on the mouth of theYuilliuteriver. He was accompanied onhis journey as far as the Clearwater byone of the most reliable timber cruisersof the country, who is ready to give histestimony. From there he went up thebeach to Hank's store at the mouth ofthe Hoh liver. Here he stayed overnight. During the evening Mrs. Hankstated that she desired some currency tosend by mail to her husband who wasstorm bound with his boat, the SnrfDuck, at Port Angeles, 011 the Straits ofFucca.

Mr. Rust informed her in the presenceof one John Lester that he had $40 incurrency, tiie amount she required, andproceeded to make an exchanged of thepaper money for (told and silver, at thesame time incidentally exhibiting quitea lot of other money in his wallet.

The next morning w'ihii ready to pro-ceed on his journey Lester offered toaccompany him some distance up thebeach and show him the wav. ).ester's

services were accepted and ttie two leftthe Ilank store together. Lester claimsor did claim that lie accompanied liust afew miles up the beach and then left himto continue his journey alone. This isthe last ever seen of liust alive or bo farub known. It is felt by all who havegiven the matter any thought that hadhe been drowned iu the stirf the seawould long since have given up its dead.

Other people have had such suspicionsof diabplical intentions on the part of acertain person who had induced them togo into the section of the country named,ostensibly for the purpose of locatingthem 011 claims; that they have refusedto enter the woods with him or for thatmatter to return their home places in hiscompany, Rumors are afloat that otherstrangers who have gone into that country and never been seen again alive.

The disappearance of ttiree differentmen in the neighborhood of Quiuiaultlake during the last winter is yet freshin the minds of the people.

A reward of at least $500 or $1000should be offered for information thatwilllead to the arrest and conviction ofany one who has committed a murder inthe section of the country referred to.Were this done we feel quite sure a

chapter of crimes will be unearthed thatwill rival that of the Williams' case justdisposed of at The Dalles, Oregon.?Ho-quiatn Washingtonian.

IS NOT SATISFIEDMUCH PARKERISM MEANS MUCH

MONEY IN POLITICS.

Quotes From Jefferson and Shows the Abuseof Money in Politics. Would Like to

InocciHate the Masses With Mr. Bryan'sIdeas.

The NtW York Woild, which is one of1 the strenflons advocates of Judge Parker,

seeins to be getting more Parkerism thanit wants. It is objecting to JamesT. Woodward, one of the New Yorkelectors. What is the matter with Mr.Woodward? He teally represents in anopen way what, the reoigauizers wantsecretly, put dare not admit. What doesthe World think of Cord Meyer for chair-man of the democratic Hate committeeof New YoikY Besides representing thetrusts h« is said to have oppofed thedemocratic party in both 180(1 and 1900.The World savs that we have hadabundant evidence of the pjwer of mon-ey in public affairs,and it was advocatingthe nomination of Cleveland who gaveus a splendid illustration of the power ofmoney in public affairs, and whose nomi-nation today would be more pleasing toWall street than the nomination of anyrepublican. The following editorial in arecent issue of the World, entitled"Money in Politics," show how Mr.Pultisser'a breast is agilated with fearthat the democratic party may becomecommercialized:

" 'I hope,' wrote Thomas Jelferson toGeorge Logan, 'we shall crush in its birththe aristocracy of onr moneyed corpora-tions, which dare already to challengeour government to a trial of strength andbid defiance to the laws of our country.'

?'Jefferson would have been surprisedto hear that the time would come whenhis own party iu the greatest state of theUnion would put forward as chief repre-sentative a man with no other claim topreferment than his connection withthose moneyed corporations which, evenin thei" mewling infancy, had seemed soalarming.

"The k-iociion of James T. Woodward'as head of the democratic electoral ticketis dismissed by some as unimportant, onthe ground that an elector is or.ly afigurehead. But that is precisely whereits ominous significance lies. Iu thedecay of politics appearance are the lastthings to tie sacrificed. A commercializedparty may have e popular figurehead,but a popular party will not tolerate acommercial figurehead.

\u25a0'We have had abundant evidence ofthe power of money in public affairs.Lust winter it was proposed to authorizethe construction of pipe gallaries iu thenew subways. The Rapid Transit com-mission, while admitting that this wouldlie a most desirable iuipiovement, re-fused to ask for it on the ground that itVie impossible to get anything throughthe legislature against the wishes of tiieConsolidated Cias company. This sameConsolidated Gas company found notrouble in getting the legislature to passa bill giving it a perpetual monopoly inthe streets of New York, and in includinga democratic mayor to sign it.

"Money has debauched Pennsylvania.It has qualified a good part of the legis-lature of Missouri and of the city councilof Bt. Louis for the penitentiary. It hasbought up the republican party of Dela-ware. It has reduced politics in Montanato a contest to copper mining companies.It threatens to rob New York and theworld of Niagara.

"Yet the democratic party of New-York asks a popular vote of confidencein a ticket headed by a man who repre-sents nothing whatever but money?whonever took any interest in public affairs,never came into touch with the govern-

ment except to see what he could makeout of it, never made a political speechor had a recorded political idea.

"Is it strange that Mr. Bryan shouldhave a hearing when he talks about the'money power?' Is there not a gooddeal of truth in his criticisms of the menwho have undertaken to reform thedemocracy by transferring it from hishands to those of the corporations andsyndicates?"

Since the above editorial appeamd inthe World, Mr. Woodward's name waswithdrawn from the ticket on account ofineligibility.
