THE ITEM BREAKS OUT AGAIN. Last Friday our esteemed contemporary, The Evening Item, broke out in one of its periodical tirades against the Palladium. The opening sentence of the editorial reads like this: "A young man with good intentions, no experience and false instructions is out soliciting for the Palladium. He certainly has a wide field before him, but he is adopting a wrong course in telling people the Palladium is the only Republican paper in Richmond. Now the Pal is the only "organ" in Richmond; it is the only paper which exchanges its opinions and barters away its independence for "a little county and city legal printing; it is the only pitiful case of depending on political charity in order to exist." This is the beginning paragraph and is a fair sample of the entire editorial excepting some personal mention which is, as usual, harmless, and we pass it in silence. It is true that the Palladium has a solicitor in the field in The person of Albert O. Holly and he is meeting with remarkable success. This of course, is "wormwood and gall" to the Item and really it cannot be blamed for "breaking but." Yes, the Palladium enjoys the patronage of the county and city and this patronage comes to this paper because it is the recognized party "organ," always conservative and always truthful. The Palladium stands for a principle three hundred and sixty-five days in a year and will advo
cate this principle without fear or sonal abuse. This kind of journalism
brass band accompaniment or the bombastic and profane ornateness that
characterize other kinds. If the sition contrary to fact), why is it
local policies of the party and why do those who desire office, in the county or city, pray for its opposition rather than its support. The Item's political influence was well illustrated in the Sixth District campaign
last winter. No paper was ever more dictatorial in its demands and no paper's demands were ever more promptly shelved than were those of tin Horn. During the county primary, one of the leading candidates was putting some final touches on his canvass and felt that he must hustle to win. Some one told him that the Item was "after" him the Item man and he said: "I shall go home now and rest. I know I will win," and he did win. Another leading candidate said he would give .$500 to have the Item oppose him, because it meant success. The attitude of the Item toward Mayor Zimmerman is well known and each time he ran, he was elected by an increased majority. The Item cannot differ with a paper or party without injecting ridicule or abuse. This was well shown not long ago when the Socialists brought a distinguished lecturer here. Instead or refuting his argument, the Item called the members of this party "half baked Anarchists," and characterized them as fellows who stand "around every day spitting tobacco juice at a crack in the sidewalk." Such expressions answer no argument and do no good. Only a few daj-s ago some of our good, honest citizens attended a show in the eastern part of the city. They had a perfect right to do this but the Item characterized them as "dead beats," who would spend their money there and leave their grocery bills unpaid. The Item refers' to the State Comittee furnishing it plate service and give? this as an evidence that it is a Republican paper. This is no argument because the committee will furnish this same service to a Democratic paper if it will publish it. The Item refei's to the Palladium as a subject for charity and pity, hut there is nothing in the editorial to indicate that either pity or charity is extended. In every expression, the Item "vaunteth itself" and is "puffed up." These characteristics o not belong to charity. But this attitude of the Item is all right. In fact the Palladium likes it better because it assumes this attitude. The Palladium is in the same position that the Republican party of the city and county is. It would rather have the Item "agin" it than "fur" it. The Item claims to have five times more Republican readers than the Palladium, but this is only a "bluff." If such be the case, our contemporary will have to revise its circulation statement.
The editor of the Item ridiculed an interview given a Chicago paper by the Hon. Francis T. Roots, of Connersville. We do not suppose that Mr. Roots will be much disturbed over the matter. He is a prominent Republican and trains in a different class from the one in which the editor of the Item trains.
The Palladium will not have a special wire from Chicago during the next two days, but it will give the news from a special correspondent. Rome of it may come over the same wire that furnishes the news to the Item.
ABOUT
PEACHES
What Michigan Men Say About itGood Prospects. South Haven, Mich., June 20. Michigan men who have been looking over the peach orchards in the South claim that there has been a wonderful spread of the culture in Georgia and that there is now the best prospect for a big crop that the southerners have had for some years. The past season has been particularly favorable to fruit growing. Owing to (he condition of the atmospnere, the sap did not rise in the trees prematurely, and as a result the late freezes have been safely passed. It is claimed that there is now in the state of Georgia no less than 2,000 peach growers, and that 8,000,000 trees will bear fruit this season. mI189S the shipments reached 2,500 cars, but last year they dropped down to a thousand. It is estimated that the state will send out of its big or
favor and without injecting any per
wins though it does not have the Item be a Republican paper, (a suppo not more influential in shaping the chards no less than 5,000 cars. Up to this time Southern peach orchards have not sent much of their product to Chicago to compete with the big Michigan production. New York and the East have taken the Southern crop, both the Sea Board, Air Lino and the Southern Railway gridironing the orchard territory and running fast fruit trains East. It is believed, however, that the Georgia early peach may get a stronger foothold in the North. The Louisville & Nashville and the Eastern Illinois line of the Frisco system now have a close arrangement by which products of Southern fields are hurried to the Chicago market. For weeks . Chicago has been eating strawberries grown down near Galveston, Texas. They were in demand because they were early, and the Georgia peach may set up this claim on Northern patronage if it can beat Michigan to the market with good ripe fruit early in the season. Quality, cleanliness, joriginal and modern, ideas is the "Keynote" to our success. "Tdeal and Mother's Bread" as a specimen of our product. Richmond" Baking Co. :

Among those who passed over tbe gangplank out of the ship was a comely girl who looked about her expectantly. A young man stepped up to her and, lifting bis hat, asked: "Can I be of service to you?" "I have come here," replied the girl hesitatingly to meet my my affianced" "I see," said the young man, speaking in a very pleasant, sympathetic tone. "Yours Is one of those cases wherein the bishop does the courting by proxy. You are assigned to one of the workers here. Do you care to give me his name?" "Herbert Tingley." "And yours?" "Lena Crawley." "I don't envy you. This marrying a man whom you I suppose you have never seen him?" "No." "How would you like to meet him incognito?" "I would like it verj' much." "Well, let me see, to remain Incognito you must lodge where no one is interested In mission work. There's a house up yonder where I think they'll take you in. Tomorrow I'll pass before your window with your affianced, and in the evening I'll bring him to call upon you. Does he expect you?" "No: there was no shin cominsr her by which to notify him before the Star of the East, in which I have
come." "That's fortunate. Well, I'd better leave you here'. I shall be happy to serve you In any way in my power. Good evening." . The girl put out her hand and grasped his warmly. He had spoken so kindly, so soothingly. She had scarcely realized the distress of the position In which she was to be placed until she had stepped ashore. How fortunate that she should have met this man! Oil, that the person to whom she had been asslgued would be half so winning! She found a lodging in the house designated. Indeed, in that small community of exiles for such they were no one coming from a civilized land would be refused. A motherly woman gave her a good room and saw that she was comfortably settled In It. Moreover, the girl was pleased that her hostess refrained, from questioning her. The next day she noticed the man who had met her walking back and ... .

The girl's heart sank within her. "I can never do it," she gasped. "I'm going back on the Star of the East." Then she remembered that her father's lifelong friend, the bishop, had told her that the man to whom he had assigned her was one of nature's noblemen. "It must be in spirit," she muttered. "It is certainly not in the flesh." That evening the two men called together, sending in cards on which were printed "Herbert Tingley" and "Walter T. Drohan." "This is the lady," said the gentleman who had befriended her, "of whom I was speaking to you. She came in yesterday on the Star of the East and proposes, I believe, to make her home with us. Knowing your kindly interest in strangers, I proposed to bring you to visit her. Then you can send the ladies of the mission to call upon her." "Pleased to meet you," said the clerical man, with the air of one who wondered what business his friend had to put him to so much trouble. Indeed his manner in every respect was repellent. He plunged in to ask a number of questions, fortunately without giving the girl time to reply to them. The man who had introduced him sat listening without interrupting him. The girl did not seem to hear a word. She made a resolution to go back home on the Star of the East and was trying to remember what she had heard as to the date of sailing. She wished It was tomorrow. Finally, when the man had tired of listening to himself talk for he had no other audience he looked at his friend and half rose from his seat, as much as to suggest a departure. "I think I'll remain a little longer," said the other. "I want to give the young lady some information she needs. But don't stay if you have other matters. I'm very much obliged to you for coming with me." "Yes, I'm a busy man. The superintendent has been loading me down with work lately. He says I'm the only man he can get 'to carry out his plans. His plans! Why, I've planned every move he has made. But he doesn't know it, lie thinks he has planned everything himself. 'Well (to the girl), good night. Ta-ta, Tingley." And with a puff and a snort he was gone. So thoroughly appalled was Miss Crawley at the idea of passing her life with this boaster that she did not notice the name by which he addressed

The stranger was sitting on the sofa beside her with a very pleasant smile on his face. "Tingley?" she exclaimed. "Whywhy, I thought he was Mr. Tingley?" "I have a confession to make." said her companion.
