Fruit Interests Now Believed to Be Safe From Injurious Legislation LOS ANGELES February 1 I am absolutely convinced that the California citrus fruit growers have nothing to fear from Jamaica and French treaties declared Congressman Waters to day The treaties are dead a door nails As a matter of fact there was really no substantial oppoItfon to the protection of Caifornla a citrus fruits when the thing cimc to a show down Mr Katwn the Commissioner of Treaties waa their cne strong advocate and his idea was baaed upon the wish of the Administration to Increase the commerce of the country Just aj much as possible by these favored nation treaties Mr Kasson and most Easterners are not informed as to the magnitude of Californias citrus fruit industry They have little conception of the vast amount of money invested In orange and lemon raising or of the outlay required fo raise oranges and lemeni in this State For instance Kasson expressed the belief that after the initial outlay for land and getting the grove of orange trees started there was nothing to do but to sit on the front porch and watch the trees bear fruit When it came to the hearing though our facts and figures knocked out ail the props the bill had Waters commended the work of Sena tore Perkins and Bard In this matter The danger is temporarily removed but according to Waters view will require constant vigilance to prevent encroschments in places not from any wlshto hurt California but because of the failure of Easterners to recognize theBtates interest in fruit raising As to the prospects of an extra session Waters Is in doubt KLONDIKE RAILROAD CONSIDERED A CERTAINTY it Is Said That Dawsons Need of Coal Wiii Make the Venture a Paying One SEATTLE Wash February 4 The railroad up the Klondike from Dawson the

says that the road will un aouoieaiy pe ouux next summer ana will prove a profitable venture A narrow fffaute road up Klondike would prove very profitable to the Alaska Exploration Com pany eaia ne

Companys coal mine the other to go up into the mines About 1200000 has been put into this coal mine by the Alaska Exploration Com pany and they are in a fair way to make it pay enormously it tney can get coal to Dawson Wood near Dawson is fast disappearing and there will be enormous amounts made In the coal busness Hence the building of the road There will be plenty of freight to go to the creeks for years to come to keep a small railway busy The coal mine will also supply plenty of business There is rumor prevalent In Dawson ana it is generauy nenevea oy nearly every one that the Canadian

the same as last week The programmes were car rled out as usual at the training quarters of Jeffries Ruhlln Martin and Childp The Saeqgerfest Athletic Club and its attorneys after repeated conferences insisted that It will proceed to carry out its programme unless a permanent injunction Is Issued by the courts Arguments will be heard on the petition for an Injunction to morrow and may continue for two days and then judge Hoi lister may reserve his decision for a day or two so that the Indications to night are that there will be no suspension of the preliminary work for some days Statements were repeatedly made today by directors of the Saengerf est Athletic Association that the fight would not be declared off until they had exhausted allj efforts in the courts even to the court of last resort The promot ers of the event insist that they will give a sparring exhibition and come within the provisions of the Ohio statutes for boxing contests They inelst that Governor Nash is mistaken in assuming that the event is to be a prizefight and on this Issue they expect the courts to decide in favor of the Saenger lest Athletic Club Attorney General Sheets will arrive at 7 oclock to morrow morning and participate with other attorneys In the arguments for a permanent Injunction There Is a large array of legal talent On both sides Prosecuting Attorney HofThelmer In reply to the letter of

continued until next Monday HofThelmer wrote to the Governor that If he found collusion in these cases he would have the principals arrested again and arraigned before a Judge of tbe Common Pleas
