The influence of the hot dry weat^ar was Immediately apparent In the im­ proved condition of cotton, especially wiiere i. had received good cultiva­ tion; laying by cotton is under way. In 6om& places cotton has too much weed, in others it is very roiall, and generally it is not fruiting very rapid­ ly; in some northern counties it Is only just beginning to bloom; the bolls do not seem to be maturing very well; cc«npljdnt8 of lice on coLton are very few. Young, upland corn is do­ ing very well, and is silking and tas- seling as far as the extreme west. The older crop has also improved, though much of it is m all and bar­ ren; corn generally needs light rain to cause the proper filling of the grain. Tobacco was slightly fired in a few countlcs by hot sunshine, but gener­ ally looks fairly well; topping is un­ derway throughout the^ northwest por­ tion ot the State; curing progressed rapidly and quite succeesfully during the past week, Repwta on the condi­ tion of the sweet potatoe crop are uni­ formly excellent; peas, peanuts aad rice are also doin^ well. Sowing the fall crop of Irish potatoes, turnips and rutabagas has begun. Conditions were very favorable for haying. Threshing wheat and oats is nearing completion. Reports on fruit indicate an Inferior yield of most kinds, especially apples; melons In the south and west are poor, but ia central and eastern portions are conning into market in abundance.

Sugar Cane in Georgia. There has been a marked increasa in the acreage planted in sugar cane in Georgia within the past few years. This Increase has about doubled with­ in the past year, which indicates that many Georgia farmers have adopted this as one of their regular crops. That there is money in raising sugar cans has been demonstrated beyond douM. and those farmers who desire to create another source of income do not hesi­ tate to engage In growing this crop. . A market for Georgia sugar cane has I already been established, and it is no ; longer a risk on the part of the farm­ er to raise a good crop of canc. The market for cane is almost as much a certainty in Georgia as the market for cotton. The cane always sells at a good price, which gives the grower a fair return for his labor. The very . best of syrup is made from the Geor- • gia sugar cane, and this syrup sells readily from 25 to 35 cent^n^^ gal­lon. In this connection It I'r^ntercs^-. ing to note that there is a strong prob­ ability of sugar refineries being ljullt In this State, and those would no doubt yield handsome profits.—Colum­ bus (Ga.)

Nothing has brought more fame to Georgia than Its peaches and melons. Southern Pines ralae.^ as fine peaches as are seen in Geor­gia, and now Robeson bids fair to ecllpso that State in melou-raisinR.

Kdi: (jiven Cut As Beinj Settled By the Conference, 4USE OF FAILURE TO AGREE |tloldan AII~D«y Session, but Fall to Ratify the Peace Terms Proposed in New York. Pittsburg, Pa., Special.-Disappoint- ^ d apprehension pervade the air ■ of Pittsburg tonight because of the jtolure of the executive board of the vAmalgamated Asosciatlon of Iron, Steel and Tin Workers to ratify the peace proposals arranged at the conference ia New York last Saturday between the national officers of the Amalgamated Association and Messrs. Morgan, Schwab and Gary, representing the United States Steel Corporation. When the conference opened Tuesday morn­ ing it was confidently expccted that the agreement would bo reached in a short time, but after a session lasting from 9;30 a. m., until 6:30 p. m., the meeting adjaumed without arriving at any conclusion, and another meeting will be held The protracted session followed with the provis:oDs of the compromise measures and unless some modifica­ tions are made its ratifications is doubtful. T!ie opening of union milli to union workmen is the point on which it is believed the board hesitates to accept, and the long-distance tele­ phone between New York and Pitts­ burg was worked frequently to get a modificatioz: of this clause. The work­ men hold that this would give the mill owners full opportunity of crushing the union without a strike by finding excuses to discharge union men ani then fill their places with non-union­ ists. Another rock of dessention Is said to be the retention in their present jobs of the men who worked as “strike­ breakers” at the various mills during the strike. It Is said that these men Jiave been promised the protection of the manufacturers in case of a settle­ ment and tbat they will not concede their dismlusal at the request of the organization. The workers, it is said, are williiig to declare the mills now working ncn-union men open mills, but strenuously object to having all the mills oi' the combine classified as open mills. All is, however, conjecture, as it Is Impossible to get any definite statement irom any of the parties, in­ terested coQcemIng the day’s confer­ ence. When the board dispersed at 6:30 every member was waylaid by persist­ ent newspLper men. seeking informa* tion. but every question was pnswered by the phrase: “V/e can say nothing There is absolutely nothing to give to the public .It this time.” It is douotful if the members of the general executive board of the Amalga­ mated Association were ever more un­ communicative and reser^'ed than du­ ring the meeting and after It was over. The importance of the matter in hand, the fate of the strike and the welfare of members of the organization, now idle, rest upon their decision. The full board was present, with one except tion.

The Buffalo Express has this to sny about “the case of Babcock:’’ The American Economist demands that Representative Babcock, of Wis­consin, be removed from the Ways and Means Committee because of his advocacy of the removal of duties from products manufactured chlefiy «‘y trusts. That would not be just. A man should not be proscribed because ho has expressed an opinion with which many of his parly associates do not agree. If his ideas are unsound they will have no dangerous inlluence on the Republican parly, and if they sire sound it would l>e very dangerous for the party to exclude them. It is a queer principle that the Ex- pre.ss advocates, and one that •»/ould lead to some <iucer results, by this rule an infidel preacher might b« chos­en to occupy an orthodox pnlt^t. for if his ideas were unsound ttioy could do no harm. It would, by the same rule, be wise to employ a burglar to serve as a watchmau Why not? Hia views, if wrong, would have no dan­gerous influence after the burglary had taken place, while if right, they ought to be considered. Nevertheless, there is a strong popular prejudice Against infidel pastors on the part of trtliodox congregations and against »)urglars as night watchmen. Many neoplo are likewise so unreasoaabje ns to think that in politics positions of trust nnd honor should not be be­ stowed upon enemies of the faith. Trno as Gospel.In his speech at the Ohio Republi­ can State Convention Senator Foraker said; The Democratic party came into power. Prosperity vanished, and four years of disaster followed. Tho soil was as rich, the sunshine was as warm, the rains were as abundant, the seasons were as regular, and labor, was as eager, but It was all In vain. The Democratic party was at the helm. Free trade was in the saddle, and capital went into hiding; the miUs, stopped, the mines closed and idleness, want, sufl:ering. tramps and riots sproad over the land. Commerce waned, the balances of trade turned against us, revenues declined, deficits occurred and meltiplied until they an^ounted to hundreds of millions. True, eveiT because the people believed aud knew it to be true—knew it frdm hard, bit­ ter experience-that they voted In 1800 and 1900 to put an end to Demo- tratic free trade tariff tinkering. \.ow etT 1 1das.

In an ariicle deprecating tho grow­ ing conviction in llie South that the same kind of protection which has built up the manufactures aud Avcalth !)f the world would bo also good for lhat scctiou of our country, the New Vork Times warns them that they “In >0 doing lose sight of the* fact that the logical result of protection would bo eoiumerciiil isolation.” Logic is deiined as the science of the ilisllnctlon of true from false reason­ ing. If the result of the Dlngley tarlH has cfl.’oeted the commercial Isolation of this country the logical result of de­ veloping tlio manufactures and wealth of tile South might be Its commercial isolation. Itut the article In question is beaded “Increasing Exports from ilie South,*’ but the increase ns shown lias occurred since the Dlngley tariff went IiKo etrect, aud we all have been assured that If we don’t buy we can't sell. TJie fact is there is no logic in, about, nor anywhere near the assertion that protection loads to commercial isola­ tion. Tho editor of the Times has apparently mislakeu Mr. Gladstone's advice that we grow more chcap cot­ ton aud wheat for logic. - ?io Chance of a (juurrcl. Senaior Jones, of Arkansas, Chair- aiau of the Democratic Kational Com- miUeo. predicts that the Babcock bill lo rei>enl tile tariff as a remedy for. trusts will never be reporic-u frchi iho Wuys and Means Committee. Here Is a ca.«c where the wish Is not father to Iho thotighr. Far from it. Nothing would i»h‘ase Senator .Tones and the parly of Populists and free traders more than to see the Kepubllcans In a quarrel over tariff revision. They will not see it. There is no earthly prospect that ajiy measure embodying tlie mischievous provisions of the Bab­ cock bill will bo reported from the House Committee on A^’ays aud Moans of the FIfty-sevenlh Congress. It is extremely doubtful whether the bill will be again introtluced by ilr. l?ab- cock or by any liepnblican. Some Democrat may revive the project. If so. it will die tho death. But there Isn’t going to be any UepuUican quar­ rel over it.

SEN. AND Ken Tillman liiia bea.st has, by his methods attempted to tor McLiiurin out of Senate. The primary system in South Cai’olina controlled by an oleraut machine will no doubt be used a« a means to accomplish his diaholioal scheme. The South, the garden spot of these United Stiites has groaned under the blighting intluence of petty poll'* ticians. Democracy has ru l^ by force and by fraud to the detri­ ment of the best interests of the people. Step by step they have led the people astray in order to put the machine leadei-s in office. They have arrayed class against class, they have kindled the fires of hate and prejudice from every stump, until reason had taken its llight aud iu many instances bru­ tal force was resorted to, when they found it necessary to carry an election.

A large posse was quickly organized and v;ith blood­ hounds they chased the negro until early in the morning when he was cap­tured in a swamp. Pennington was bound hand and foot and taken back to :be Davis home for Identification. Word of'the assault had been sent by runiier& tor miles around Enterprise and every farmer In the neighborhood left his plow to join in the search. Some of them were too late to join the pursuing party and went to the Davis home to await their return. There is not a tel­egraph office in Coffee, county, but the message traveled rapidly and when the posse arrived with Pennington there were at least five hunared persons gathered near the Davis residence. A great shout went up when the prisoner was seen by the crowd, but at a signal the men withdrew to the woods and quietly awaited the result of the meet­ing between Pennington and Mrs. Davis.Mrs. Davis immediately recognized him and the negro broke down and wept He admitted having committed the assault and pleaded for mercy. With cries of terror the trembling man was dragged from the house and jnto the woods where the crowd had fathered. Evidently expecting the con­fession, several of the citizens had driven a stal:e in the ground and as the men approached with Pennington, both whites and blacks were piling brush­ wood around the iron pipe. The negro saw his doom and with a scream of terror, fell to the ground in faint. He was quickly revived and dragged to the Stake while the crowd stood silently by. The frightened man was limp and had to be held up while the chains were fastened around his neck and body. When all was ready the cry v;as given and the crowd stood back. A match was applied to the pile and with oil to feed upon the flame soon burst into a roaring fire. The terrified negro again plead for mercy in agonizing tones and prayed to God that those around him might perish. He then called on his Maker for forgiveness. A deathly si­lence enveloped the awfaul scene and in a few minutes the flames had done their work.

The girl was taken Sun­ day night from the company of her sweetheart, Walter Hammond, at the point of a revolver, Ker body has not b«ea found. is r baby ^ red cor- its contents, id of twenty-four ■ome nearly as largo ^cle. It then, by a pro- 'n as segmentation, splits up dozfen or more little spores n, which for a short time are free in the blood and unattached to the cor­ puscles. It is just as the segmenta­ tion occurs that the chill comes on, which explains the periodic recurrence of the chill every twenty-four hours, and as It has been found that quinine is most effective in killing the germs while they are free in the blood and not buried in the substance of the coi*puscles, the best time to give quinine Is just before the chill Is ex­ pected. The method of the introduction of the malarial poison, the plasmodium, certainly the chief method, has beon demonstrated beyond all question to be the sting of a certain variety of mosquito known as anopheles, the common mosquito, which while more abundant is innocent as a carrier of disease, being known as culex. The latter species will breed in still water of any kind, no matter bow pure, but the former, our enemy, will only breed in stagnant pools In which there Is a certain amount of vegetable matter, especially if there are no fish, such as top minnows or sun-perch, which feed upon the larvae or wiggletalls. This '3XpIains the fact that malaria Is much nore abundant after freshets, in the course of which the stream, getting out of its banks, washes holes in the ground, and speedily falling leaves there stagnant pools with few or no fish in them. Mosquitoes are very much more abundant this exceptional year of freshets than usual. It also explains the danger of brick holes. The larvae, or wiggletalls, as we generally call them, are the young mosquitoes. Although they live in the water from the time they are hatched from the eggs which were laid on the surface until they reach maturity they cannot live without air—they must breathe. Contrary to the general rule, they breathe “wrong end foremost”- through a long breathing tube which springs from the body near the tail ond which they stick out of the top of tbe water when they want air. The bearing of this arrangement on their destruction will appear later. There is a popular misapprehension in regard to the movement of mos­ quitoes. The general impression is that they are carried by the wind, and people at the sea-side say that a lana breeze brings mosquitoes. It is a fact that they are more abundant when the breeze is from the land or in a calm, but according to those who know best the fact probably is not that they are blown from the swamps to landward, but that they simply come out again from the trees and shrub­bery and the lea side of houses v;here they had taken refuge from the strong sea breeze which was too rough for their fragile bodies. With rare ex­ceptions they travel It is said .seldom more than a mile, and generally not so far. \Vhen one is troubled with mosquitoes a careful search will al­most always reveal stagnant water in the near vicinity.The destruction of mosquitoes and the consequent prevention of malaria is accomplished in two ways: First and best by the thorough drainage of all stagnant pools of water, and second, by keeping the surface of such pools covered with petroleum, wbat is known as light fuel oil, or even the crude petroleum being bet ter and cheaper than ordinary kero­sene. The film of oil prevents the larvae from breathing and smothers them. The quantity necessary is one ounce or two tablespoonfuls to every fifteen square feet of surface, re­peated every two weeks. This oil method was employed with great suc­cess last year by the city of Win­chester, Va., and our own town ot Tarboro has recently shown a most commendable spirit of enterprise In adopting It Some care and a little expense in securing protection against mosquitoes and in providing a supply cf pure drinking water will practically Insure against malaria. To those interested In this subject I cordially commend a very interest­ing and valuable book on monquitocs written in popular and entertaining style by Dr. L. O. Howard, the Chief Entomologist of the United States, and published by McClure, Philliija and Co.. New York, at a cost of $1.6-1, postpaid. Richard H. Lewis, M.

Atlanta, Special.—Adjutant-General Robertson Mondoy night ordered Major Barker to put himself in command of three companies which would be de­tailed from the Fifth Infantry ond the First Calvary, and report with them at 5 o’clock Tuesday, to the sheriff of Cherokee county, at the jail in Atlanta. The militia will accompany Raymond Ross, a negro, to Canton, Oa., where ke will be tried for an alleged assault a white woman. Explosion at Philadelphia. Philadelphia. Special.—A terrific ex­ plosion in a block of six buildings on Locust street, above Tenth, Monday night, completely wrecked five struc­ tures and caused the death of from 10 to 20 or more persons. Over two scores of others were more or less seriously Injured. Some of those taken to the hospital will die. It is estimated that at least 35 persons were in the five balld- ings when the explosion occurred and the exact number of dead will probably not be known for twenty-four hours. ilnj to part of the ^ d dry: local ,y p'aces on July 1st, which were very ough the amount of pre- m w«.3 generally small, exc'pt "a few soutiheaatem counties where over an inoh waa reported. A period of more moderate temperatures with cooler nlghU followed. As a whole the tempeature averaged about 40 de­ grees dai'ly above the normal, while the rainfall was an inch and a half below. The counties chiefly suffering frDm a laok of sufficient mQlsture are those in the nortiheast portion—Hert­ ford. Northampton and Warren—some In the central district, Guilford, Wake and Alamance, and nearly all the ex­treme western portion ot the State. Generally fair weather enabled far mers to accomplish a good deal of ^\*ork, chiefly in cleaning out late crops sowing peas, haying and turning stubble land for wheat, which has be­gun on a small soale. Socne fiirther improvement in crops took place during the week, though the favorable weather condition came too Jate to prevent a general deflclea- cy In the yield of all crops. Young corn Is doing well, though it would be bcoefitted by mere rain, which Is a’so essential to tho proper maturity of early crop; young com on uplands la suffering considerably, and in some places Is reported to be firing. The reports about cottoo are very divera- fied; In some cases well cultivated fields show good weed and plenty of blooms, though the bolls are formine slowly; in others the plants are very small, an-d fruiting slowly; slight im­provement was noted generally, and reports of shedding are not numerous; laying by cotton Is underway. Prim­ ing and curing tobacco ia proceeding rapidly, and some now tcibaooo has been placed on the market this week; the largest part of the crop ihas been sccured In the southeast portion erf the State. Some complaints of firing and damage by fiea-bugs were receiv­ ed from northwest counties. While some excellent cures of tobaoco have been made the crop as a whole will not be first class. Sweet potatoes and peaauts continue to be very promis­ing. Much hay was cut during the week and housed in good condition. Turning stubble land for wheat baa begun. The dry weather has preven- ted turnip seeds from sprouting very rapidly. Peaches, apples and grapes continue to rot badly grapes are ripen­ing but are very inferior in quality; melons also appear to be generally small and poor shipments of water­ melons are increasing. Rains for the week: Goldsboro 0.30 Inch Greensboiro. 0.58; Lumberton, 0.50; Soapstone Mount 0.41; Auburn, 0.20; Patterson, 0.35; Mocksville, 0.48; Settle, 0.45. Government Report. Washington, D. C., Special.—The monthly report of the Statistician of the Department of Agriculture shows the average condition of cotton on July 25 to have been 77.2, as com­pared with 81.1 on the 25th of the pre­ceding month; 7G on August 1, 1900, 84 on August 1, 1899, and a ten-year average of 84. There was an Im­provement of conditions during July amounting to 6 poinU in Georgia, 5 points In South Carolina, 2 In Ala­bama and Mississippi, and 8 in Vir­ ginia. On the other hand, there T7as a decline of 19 points in Missouri, 15 in Arkansas and Tennessee, 13 In Oklahoma and Indian Territory, 12 In Texas. 7 in Florida, 4 in North Caro­ lina, and 2 In Louisiana. The im­pairment In condition is largely due to drought, but in a portion of the eastern section of the cotton belt it is attributable to the prevalence of excessive rain during a large par^ of the month. While the condition in Mississippi Is 5 points above the States’ ten-year average, every other State reports a condition below such average, Virginia being 1, Louisiana 2, Alabama 3, Texas 7, Georgia South Carolina and Florida 9, Non.. Carolina 12, Arkansas. Tennessee ant. Missouri 16 points below their re­ spective ten-year average. The aver­ages of condition in the different States are reported as follows: Vir­ ginia 86, North Carolina 73, South Carolina 75 Georgia 78, Florida 79. Alabama 82, Mississippi 88, Louisi­ana 82. Texas 74. Arkansas 69, Ten­nessee 70. Missouri 71, Oklahoma 78, Indian Territory 75. A Street Tragedy. Jackson, Miss., Special.—W. J. Ligon, janitary Inspector of Jackson, Monday night shot and killed David L. Shelton. The shooting occurred on the principal street of the city, and caused much ex citement. The men bad quarrelled, 3arlier In the day, it is said, over an Inspoction and changed in a personal a’.Ccrcatlon- Shelton, It is said, returned fo the attack with a stick, whtn Ligon oulled a revolver and shot him through tho heart.

Mon- lay evening. The death of the Dowager ^.mpress was somewhat sudden. At 4 )’clo»k her physicians reported no ibaoge in her condition. Emperor Wll- .1am and Her Majesty’s other children and Empress Augusta Victoria were in •.he sick room most of the day. They were all anound the bedside when th' Dowager Empress passed away.

I thought “I’ll tell you how it Is, Uncle Sam, said I. “The people enjoyed your Fourth of July talk so much that there are requests from all over the country for a small weekly chat Now you won't refuse the people, will you?” I pleaded.“No. I won’t exactly refuse,” he re­ plied; “but really, I’m awfully busy all the time. I thought I was busy in 1892, w'hen the McKinley law was in such perfect order, but it didn’t com­pare w’ith what this Dingley law is doing. Why, I’m breaking the records all along the line. Just look at this total of foreign bills of sale—$1,500,- 000,000. There ain’t another countir on earth that can show such a total.” “But,” I remarked, “there seems to be a falling off in exports of manufac­ tures.”“Don’t you worry about that a min­ ute,” he replied. “The falling off is In figures, not In fact For instance, I sold nearly §20,000.000 of goods, most­ ly manufactures, to Porto Rico and Hawaii In 1900. Well, I’ve sold them considerable more this year, and yet not a dollar’s worth appears In the reports. Then the war In China has cut off enough to make up the rest of the difference between this year and last And besides all that there has been a reduction In prices; so, really, exports of manufactures have in­ creased.“But that ain’t the whole point, either. I’ve sold fully $2,000,000,000 worth more of manufactures at home this last year; so don’t woii-y. my boy, about an apparent loss of a few mill­ ions in foreign sales.” “Does the surplus please you?” asked. “It’s great isn’t it? Kept right up to the mark aud the estimates. And now I have reduccd taxation by $-40,- 000,000 a year, and my friend John Bull is tnzing his people right aud left and wondering how he is going to foot the bills. I reckon he looks at my $240,000,000 of customs receipts a lit­ tle enviously; but he is too stubborn to change his fiscal policy, though I ex­ pect to sec him putting up the bars before long. “Then look at this treasury balance, $175,000,000, besides the $150,000,000 reserve fund. I’m buying bo^ds all the time, too. Quite different from what my last manager, Cleveland, did When he ran me iuto debt to tbe tune of about $262,000,000, to say nothing of the interest on the bonds he sold. I tell you the people did me a mighty good turn when they gave me McKin­ ley for a manager and a Republican protection Congress to back him up.' The old gentleman rubbed his hands gleefully and seemed as jubilant as a boy in swimming. “You have not said anything abont the big balance of trade,” I remarked. “Don’t need to; it speaks for itself.” tersely responded the happy man. “But,” he added, “I’m prouder of those figures than I can tell you. It isn’t so much the six hundred and thirty odd millions to my credit but It shows that the people are expanding at home as well as abroad. We are buying more home-made goods and getting more and more independent of tlie rest of the world every year. We can af­ ford to buy a few hundred millions’ worth of luxuries abroad, but I want my people to buy all they can at home, and I guess they all see the point.” And the old gentleman gave mo a merry wink as he went off with his pockets crammed to overflowing with coupons.

But if there really exists two wings in the Republican party—one demanding a lowering of duties or their repeal in some in­ stances, and the other determined to stand by the policy that has built up American industry, and, incidentally, the party—why. the sooner the thing Is fought out to a finish the better, perhaps. But no American business man wants to see the next session of Con­ gress given ever to an acrimonious de­ bate that would imperil the passage of needed legislation that the business of the country Is crying for—on the Isthmian canal, for instance. If there is one thing more than an­ other which business does not want It is tariff tinkering. —> B ailroad W ork an d W agef. Five years ago many of the railroads of the country were in the hands of receivers. To-day every railroad of the country is traffic taxed to Its utmost resources.

A Cheap aiilk CooTcr. A few years ago, being iu need of a tank for coyling milk in cans, and finding that a metallic or wooden tank would be qnile costly. I built a room six by eight feet iu one corner of a small icehcnse. The v.'alls between HOiTEil.OE 2I17.S COGLEP.. the room t nd ico were double boarded and packed wlih sawdust. Then I built a tauk or brick across one end o: the .'smaii room aud cased it up v.'ith marclied boards. The cut show’s the frameworU of the chest. Any one havinj: old brick aud a small amouut or ingeuu ry can build one at a very small cost.

To find out the cause of bad Cavor, fcomelimes found in carefully made biut.ir. is often a ditficult thing to do. It may U the result cf noxious weeds iu the pasture or musty grain, hay or meal. Th2 condition of the vessels used raay be rospousible. The churn ir it has beeu iu use any goDd length of time may not have been thoroughly cleaned lefore scaldin:;, aud some yel­ low scum left in the crevices, which is sure to taint the cream more or less. The tin pails or cans may have be­ come ruiJted, so as to collect a gum­ like sul)stance. which soon forms from the milk, aud is not easily removed, except by the use of a stiff brush anc some scalding hot water. The salt used iu the butler may have been tainted by contact with some orfenslve disinfeciioa; or again the odor in the stable, v/here the milking is done, may have ta.nted the milk so as to cause the troub!^. When once wo are able to locate the cause the remedy will be plain. Un­ less thtre are some points along this work that we think might be the cause ’■ ol t'ufe*.iWiiilCvthe best an^surest plan is to gc over the ground from the cow to the butter tub. and if the investiga’ tion is thorough the trouble will be pretty sure to be brought to light; In other words carefully examine for all. No one who is not familiar with the premis *.s. utensils, food, etc., will as a genera, thing be able to give intelli gent advice on the subject. To prevent milk from becoming sour find ofl iu flavor, it is necessary to be­ gin w^ith the care of the cow and the milkin’:. The. cow should be kept as clean as circumstances will permit. Bring the curry-comb and bi*ush into use ou her occasionally during the Bummer If the stable cannot be opened up so as to admit plenty of fresh air. The milking should be done in a yard or under a shed built for this purpose. Brush the teats and udder carefully. The r.an who has just been cleaning the hcrse or stables should not go di­ rect to the milking without giving his clothes a thorough brushing and air­ ing. The small particles that find their way into the milk may not be noticeable at the time, but they are there just the same and help to make the milk unwholesome. The first milk that comes from the teats should not £;o into the pail. The sooner the milk is strained, af­ ter It comes from the cow, into a can set in Ice cold water, the better, tmless it is to be separated ou the farm, iu >^'hich case It should be put through the machine at once.

With many varieties of plums and pears the removal of a portion of the fruit will increase the size and value of that remaiuing aud lessen the check to grow'th of the trees. The same is true to a certain extent with such va­ rieties of apples as set large crops of fruit, while still young, and before they have made much grow’th. In tho case of poaches the loss from neglect to thin the fruit before the pits begiu to harden is often veiy gi-eat. When tlie trees are heavily laden the remov­ al of one-half to three-fourths of tho crop will often increase rather than diminish the yield in bushels, while the market value may be more than doubled. Careless and sometimes dis­ honest packing is too prevalent. All fruit .should be carefully graded, aud when it is packed tho stencil of tho grower should be a guarantee that tho fruit in each package is up to grade.— L. It. Taft, In American Agriculturist. Crates For the Fai-m. Every farmer should have a few bushel crates. The illustration shows one of the crates ready for use. It is a slat crate throughout. The corner pieces are American elm two and a quarter-inch comer saw'cd, thus one piece after it is sawed will make two^ pieces to nail slats on. The slats are’ Norway pine lath, one lath cutting into three lengths without waste. The tw’o pieces the bottom slats are nailed to are not lath, but elm fence pickets one-half inch thick. These hold nails better than Norway pine and are stronger than common lath. The cor­ ner posts are fourteen inches long, the end slats twelve inches and the side slats seventeen Inches long, making the outside dimensions of the crate fourteen and a quarter inches deep, twelve Inches wide and seventeen and a half inches long.

Sion of the feminine instinct for grace and beauty, but they illustrate rather a poverty of financial opportunities. A college man In his effort to support himself is limited only by his capacity. He can break stones in the road or publish a paper, as his talent provides. Ho is free to enter any trade or busi­ness in the town, or Invent a new one if he pleases. He may wander where he will along economic highways and byways. No one thinks of putting an obstacle In his way.‘‘But when a girl, out of the fulness of her desire, determines to work hev way through college, she must first rid herself of the notion that she can copy her college brother. Otherwise she will meet with disappointment, for long ago Mrs. Grundy set a dis­tinction between labor fitting for men and for women, and our colleges for girls still respect It. During under­ graduate days, at least, they believe in an emphasis of the woman woman­ ly. The self-supporting girl, therefore, finds before many an industry open to her college brother a sign on which custom or tho college president has written the uncompromising words, •No Admittance.’ She can neither weed lawns nor dig gardens, clean fur­ naces nor shovel snow. The girl who lihould turn grocery clerk or who be­came a component part of a baker’s or butcher’s or hotel-keeper‘s staff iu her college town would be a focus for the puzzled attention of tho whole faculty, while a student dairymaid, fruiterer or butter merchant within the confines of the colleges would raise a storm of protest from Maine to California. Yet college mea in sim liar positions meet only praise and commendation.“Doubtless some of the occupations In the diminished list tov girls de­ clared official by college censors -will seem trivial enough to the masculine student-merchant who sells mlllc by the thousand quarts aud butter by countless pound.*?. Nevertheless, the college girl Invests as much energy aud strength aud originality in her tasks as the college man in his. If she earns as much money as he, her effort must be almost doubleiT. t'ew girls, under the circumstances, have the physical exuberance necessary to meet the strain of self-support. They must stop short at self-help. But the attitude of a woman’s college Is strongly paternal. Though restric­ tions are laid ou the student who works her way, scholarships and loans, as far as they go, are the com pensations, and, when these arc ex­ hausted, a protective care and watch fulness which seldom fall to the lot of the college man.' One might think that one-h^lf inch would not make any difference, but It does, in just tliis way: A crate twelve by seventeen and a half inches works to advantage in a wagon bos, while twelve and a half by seventeen works to a disadvantage. Three or four neighbors can decide on the number of crates they want, and then give their order to some local planing mill and get the material cut ready for nailing at a fraction of what it would cost for each one to place his A LOAD OF BUSHEL CBATBS. order. It is better than employing a carpenter, as the pieces must be ex­ actly the same length—a difficult thing to accomplish when the cutting Is done by hand. The wagon illustrated is loaded with boxes of potatoes ready for market. You will notice that I have not only crates for potatoes, but a rack for the crates. This rack holds just fifty-two crates. They are placed two deep and three side by side, except the end tier of crates, which are placed with the long dimensions parallel with the long dimension of the wagon. Each layer will then hold twenty-six busnels of potatoes by weight without rounding them up some. So these two extra crates fill up the lower layer of boxes after the top layer has been unloaded, thus making our load weigh out fifty bushels.—Elias F, Brown, Ii* Orange Judd Farmer.

The short stitched tucks which dis­ pose so tastefully of the fulness at the back of the waist, consisting of some six iu all, can, if preferred, be termin­ ated at graduated intervals, although in a wash skirt it Is not wise to run deeper down than seven or eight inches, as after washing there is apt to occur an unpleasing. strained look. Indeed, the chief aim la working out I>oth these skirts to a logical conclu­ sion has been to malce them of a thor­oughly practical order In view of their being materialized in washing stufCs of light ephemeral coloring, and at a rougii calculation a fair allowance for either would be four and a half yards of double width or eight of wide sin­ gle, that computation accounting with care for everything, such as facings aud the like. Hairdrcssln;; and XTate. Now that “foreheads are iu,” to quote the famous phrase of the hair­ dresser, the forward tilt of the hat is Imperative. Placed straight or on tho back of the head, it gives a bare, bleak aspect to tho brow which is by means becoming. Of course, all fash- iouable women have discarded fringe, exccpt such slight tendrils of hair as serve to soften the outline of the temples. The fringe, indeed, which had become common to all ranks, aud which was often to be seeu touzzled, ill-coml)ed and worse brushed, cn unbecoming mat, indeed, had sunk very low and w'as doomed to extinction, but it must be remem­ bered that a different style of hair­ dressing demands a different sliapa and poise of hat.

Tailor-made skirts come in light gray mixed woolen goods and some with an Invisible stripe which is fre­ quently of blue. They are light weight and comfortable skirts for wear when woolen skirts are needed.

A bolero of the black net with the paillettes worked on in feath­ er pattern is decidedly fetching. Baby is wearing open-work stock­ ings with the rest of the world.

Prof. H. W. Wiley, of the United Slates Agricultural Department; Prof. Vaughn, of Ann Arbor University; Profs. Bleile and Webber, of the Ohio State University, wore called to de­fend Arioso. Dr. Wiley made a care­ ful examination of the juethod of man­ ufacturing. Ho tuM of the 10,- 000,000 eggs used yearly in the prepar­ ation of this glazing. On thi.s point, in cross-examination, the State's at­ torney deftly drew' from him tiie In­ formation that these eggs might bo kept in cold storage for a year or two at a time.The exports who hoard Dr. Wiley’s testimony were I'lcascd to listen to so famous a chemist. The doctor at one point in his testimony explained very clearly iiu.w i\ is tlint the egg put into the- coffee pot by the housewife settles the coffee. He said that the h?at coagulates the egg, and as it sinks to the bottom of the pot it carries the line particles of coffee with It. and thus clarifies tiia drink. It Is the act of coagulation in the coffee pot that docs the work. Later on in his cross examination, he admitted that when the egg was put on Arlosa cotTee at the factory it became coagulatcd, and as egg caunot be coagulated but once, that the coat­ ing on coffce was practically no value, as a “settler” w’hen it reachcd the coffee pot.Professor Wiley acknowledged that the glazing might be a favorable medium for the propagation of bac­ teria, although he would not testify positively either way because he was not a bacteriologist. Professor Vaugim, of Ann Arbor, also a witness for the defense, said he found bacteria on Arlosa coffee.Professor Bleile, anotlier Avituess for the defense, testified ho found any number of lively bacteria on Ariosa coffee he examined, and agreed tbat glazed coffee surely was a more favor­ able medium for the propagation of bacteria than unjiazed coffee.Pure Food Commissioner Blackburn says: “The State is very much elated over Its victory. We are now concider- ing tlie advisability of informing every grocer in the State of Oliio that it is an infraction of the laws to se l Ariosa, and at the same time give warning to coii.^umer.? that the coffee is an adulterated food article." Tho verdict of the jury iu this case Is of national Importance because a ’ great many other States have pure ! is natural to suppose that similar ac­tion will be taken by other Pure Food Commissioners to prevent the sale of glazed coffees.

It is a crop that can be ea.sily cultivated, and grows best where native corn grows best, requiring the same fertilizing. . It does best in bottom lands. In planting it the rows should be three or fonr feet apart, with five orBixinthe hill. If drilled the stalks should be four or five inches apart, or what is better, chop out with a No. 2 hoc, leaving three or four in a bunch. Cultivate the same as corn, but be careful not to cover the sma'.l plants. The time of harvest in ihis section (south­ west Georgia) is in July. Market prices range from 5 to S cents per pound. The seed is fine feed for chickens. Mixed with oats it is fine feed for stock.

The polilieal ma­ chine in tiic .Sonth has exaiisted every method iinagina''le to keep ihe people in line to vote them in oiTice rega. dle.ss of the best inter­ ests of tiie people. Boycotte, os- ti-acisin, force and fraud have bien i-esoited to in order to carry elect ions. Men who have had the courage a id manhood to ([iiit the Democratic party and c-ist their lot with the Kepubllcaii parly have bet-n i.ci'seenteil, boycotted and ostracised. They have tried (o ruin their business_. and drive them out as it were. Ail tliis has h.ad -ts efiect to the detriineut of business. Thousands have uot had the courage to follow the dictates of eoufcience and have voted with the machine legardless of conse- ((uences. The time has come for rcivjn to as.sert itself. Two polit­ ical parti.es are absolutelj' necessa­ ry iu a republican form of goveru- ment, aud liberty and good gov- ernmc-ut caunot be pieserved and perpetuated with an intolerant machine enthroned. The goath is! the garden spot of these United •States, and nothing has done it more harm than thcKe small fry, petty politicians who have kept up false issues to blind the people, aad keeT themselves iu office. In every st ite where an attempt has been made to c.i.st o(T these false leaders, and peanut politicians, the dirtiest, vilest means have been resorted to in order to keep down freedom of thought and ac- tiou. BeuTillmeuin South Caro­ lina is now threatening the cotton mill men vdth adverse legislation, ii.id even threatens violence to keep himself iu office. This intol­ erant iiachiue had rather tirive out every nianiifacturing enterprise —railroads and all rather than It'se their grip on the ofiices. The Ki.owiiig this, aud believing in juotiec to all men, why., does n'>t the editor of the Times advoeate honesty in elections—a free tiallot and a fair couut? Are the oflices •luil paltry things of this life more to lie desired than life eternal ks laught by true Christians! If so then we can reconcile the position taken by our contemporarj-. Mr. IJIackburn got a majority of the votes cast lie they white or black, and it was not the fault of the Democratic party that it is so. They did not rob and steal quite enough to put Mr. Buxton in, fluit’e the great trouble. Some of the ablest lawyers iu the South (and Unaiocrats at that) arc op' po'cd to the Grandfather Clause because the.' say it is in conflict with the Constitution of the Unit­ ed States, and did we uot all take an oath to support that Constitu­ tion? Did we do right when we voted to nullify it? Your crowd Mr. Times have dlsfi-anchised by fraud, force and pcijury of the rankest kind, and now that you are in possession ot your stolen goods, we say let the nigger rest. He has accepted with good grace the terms meted out to him and in the most of cases is attending to his own aSairs. Then why coutiuuaUy hurl “nig­ ger” at your etjualsf Y"our crowd promised last year to give the nig­ ger question a rest, and are you carrying out your part of the con­ tract by such thrusts? If the Hon. Spencer Blackbnrn is the candidate, and is defeated by fair means, he will accept the defeat as an honorable man, and will retire to private life and earn a living as all houest men should.

RAILWAYS AND THE PEE.SS. No two agencies have been more potent in developing tho indiistriss of the south than the newspapers and the railroads. The railroads have done more toward developing territory contiguous to their Hues than the people of these sections themselves, and in bringing about this development Ihe railroads have not been slow to appreciate and to use freely printers’ ink. The railroads have patronized the es­ tablished periodicals of every class and, in addition, have uot infre­ quently established publications of their own simply because those in­dependently published did uot have sufficient circniation or did not present the advantages of tho territory in an efilcient manner. Beaumont Herald, Every word of the above is t rue, yet there are many newspapers, and some especially, in this State that are never happier than when antagonizing the railroads, and striving with all their might to do them injury. Railroads like all other corporations should be treat­ ed fairly and justly. To work upon tho prejudices of the people and make them enemies of corpora^, tions just because they are corpo­ rations is mean, little and dastard­ ly, and the ones who do it are the worse euemies to prosperity and progress.

Fire and harbor tugs with rescuing parties on board reached the crib aoon . after the flames broke out, but when they arrived the structure was a seeth­ ing' mass of flames and all hope of saving It was abandoned. Men could be distinguished swimming and float* ing in the water shouting for help. Others were clinging to ropes which they had hitched or tied to the rafters, lut the flames were burning the ropes away while the men were stark naked, and one by one they wnre falling into the lake.

When last seen she had her decks awash, and It is feared she hai> gone down. If this boat and hei barges have been lost, 20 people more have been drowned. There are num­ erous reports of Individual casualties all along down the passes. The steam ers which started for the sea Tuesday remained inside the passes until Wed nesday evening and then went oat safely, among the number being the Cromwell liner Proteus, and the British transport Mechanician, which was dynamited while in port a few days ago. Not a single vessel has passed up the river since the storm began and great fears are entertained for the ones which are expected. There Is serious apprehension concernlni the Cheniere, Caminada and Grande Isle sections, on the south Louisiana coast, west of the Mississippi river, where 2,000 lives w’ere lost in 1893 by the tiral wave. Up to this writlnfi no word has been received from that section which is largely inhabited by fishermen, mostly Chinese and Mal­ays.Up to Thursday midnight everj-- thing seemed to be safe at the Mis sissippi coast towns. Bay St. Louis, Pass Christian. Biloxi. Mississippi City and Ocean Springs, but since then not a word has been heard from them. All wires are down. The only reports of damage so far received are of de­stroyed bath houses and uprooted trees. The Louisville and Nashville road is blocked off beyond Chef Men- teur, SO miles from this city. The big steel bridge there is safe, but beyond there are several washouts on the road. The New Orleans and North­eastern road is also blocked by wash­outs and its big trestle over Lake Pontchartrain has been shaken by the heavy seas breaking against it. There has been much damage done at Shell Beach, southv.’est of the city, and which connects with Lake Pontchar­train. All the buildings there have been swept away, and there are re­ports of loss of life among the fish ermen, but the exact extent of this is not known. A tidal wave swept over the land there as It did nine years ago. In the city of New Orleans and su­burbs there has been considerable damage. At Milneberg, one of the Lake resorts, the railroad pier head running out into the lake for a dis­tance of a thousand yards has been destroyed and all light buildings dam­aged. The big buildings on shore withstood the gale. There was no less of life. The steamer Neptune, tied up to this pier head, pounded herself to pieces and sank. fter breakfast Tuesday morning Mr. Lemuel Martin, a farmer, left his _ nes- home and went to Indian Trail, Union which is county, leaving his wife alone at home. About 9:30 o’clock, while Mrs. Martin was sitting in a front room of hei house, sewing, Monroe came up to the window and asked where her husband had gone. Mrs. Martin, who knew Monroe, was frightened by something jS^manner, and told him that her :one t9 the watermelon jjlose by. :e his horse If he was 'atermelon patch?” Martin saw that .d did not reply _ of leaving reai^ irough the behind Mrs. ng her throat from iced to choke her.

T. Har­gett, the nearest house, which Is 30Q yards away. Newton Hargett, a cousin of Mr. J. T. Hargett, at once started foi Martin’s house and on his way there was joined by Mr. Ben Ivey, who had also herad tUe screams. It Is presumed that Monroe saw the two men coming, for when they were within a short distance of the house he jumped from a rear window and ran.At the same moment Mrs. Martin, al­most crazed, ran out of the front door.She was taken to Mr. Hargett’s house and spet the day and night there. The unfortunate woman was Miss Suiie Philmon, of Union county, and is onlj about 17 years old. Her condition in' tenslfied the horror of the assault. News of the crime spread rapidly and in a short time a number of men, walk'Ing and on horseback, were In search Of the negro. About noon they thought they had him located In a small piece of woods, but he managed to break through and escape. At an early hour last night it was stated that he had been traced to within two miles ol Charlotte and that it appeared certain that he had come to this city. A tele­ gram was sent to Fort Mill, S. C., for bloodhounds belonging to Mr. B. D. Springs, of this city. The dogs arrived but were not unleased, as the police felt con/ldent that Monroe could be found In one of three piaces in Char­lotte. The entire force were immedi ately interested in the case and all available men were detailed as search­ing parties.Mr. Lemuel Martin and several of hU relatives reached town by 10 o’clock Tuesday night. Mr. Martin did not hear of the assault until late in the after­ noon, when he was returning from In­dian Trail. Ho went at once to bis wife, and after seeing her for a few minutes left In search of her assailant.

Lee was “The Army.” Both addresses w'ere heard with great interest and Capt Hobson was loudly applauded when he de­ clared that Congress should apprc priate at least towards......... The scene was grim. The negro, with the manacles on, stood in the centre ol the group and at first told a story that he had imperfectly prepared. He said that he and another negro named Walter Peoples had deliberately* gone to the house, and that Peoples >id not himself was the assailant. J^hen he had finished Sergeant Jw on said shortly:“You lie. Tell « e’truth.”The negro loAed around the group and feared w)At he need not have feared. Hisj^per lip and mouth were scratchedi^ere was blood on his shirt and otijlr clothes; and no man could see tne sight quietly or without the want to kill. Monroe crouched up against the wall and in hih second story told that heand Peoples had gone to the house and thai he and not Peoples was the guilty par­ ty."You lie,” said Sergeant Jetton. “Tell the truth. We know that People was not with you.” Then it was that the negro admitted his crime, saying that he alone had gone to the house and that he had ac­complished his purpose. He went to the stable and saw that Mr. Martin’s horse was gone. He went from there to the house and tip-toed from the kitchen to the room where Mrs. Martin sat He told her that he would blow her brains out. She cried and then he choked her. creanicrops. buv-^f^ ^ inmoiint to unless right? !And good prices are the re sn l^ P ^ f^ demand for more food rlffht here nt home.

That is just what the protective wall was built for, and It seems to have been well built too. xiallroad Becelvcrtlilps. According to the Railroad Age, rail­ road receiverships dwindled to three small roads with only about sixty miles of track during the past half year. This is the greatest hight to which we have attained In railroad solvency, alonkey with the tariff and that record will soon go back to the more than 100 receiverships of ’05 and '90.

The preliminarj’ figures furnished by the Treasury Department covering the trade o^ the United States with foreign countries hare been completed, and, subject to a few changes, will stand as representing the most re­ markable year in the experience of tlie nation with international trade.One thing lo demonstrated by the re­ sults of the last year’s business, and that Is that those who are of opinion that there should be a revision of the tariff must find the reasons for such action by the next Congress elsewhere than in the results obtained In thi field of our trade relations with for­eign countries. So far as that trade Is concerned the advantages, to what ever c.*iuse due, have been largely with the producers of this country. Our laws of tirade have certainly been pro­ motive of the best interests of the country so far as international trade Is concerned, to a greazer degi’ee dur­ ing the past year than during any re­cent year In the nation’s life.

The influ­ ence of wisely framed laws Is also shown in the fact that while our ex port trade was growing so handsome­ ly, bought In foreign coxmtries about ?!28.0DO,000 worth less of com modities than we bought in the previ ous year, which means that the pro ducers of this country had a wider field among our own people for the disposition of their products. The nei foreign business done by our people in the twelve months just ended a gregated nearly two and a half billion dollars, and the striklnij fact which stands out In bold relief In this con nectlon is that the aggregate of our sales abroad exceeded our purchases abroad by the sum of §G6-4,000,000. The tremendous importance of these figures is made clear when it is con­ sidered that this excess of exports over imports amounts to almost the total aggregate Import or export business of the country In any year previous to seven years ago. If there is any com­ fort in these figures for tariff revision- arles they are welcome to it The fact of the matter is the trade statis­ tics of the fiscal year just closed leaves them without a leg to stand on. In this connection it is well to note the fact that the Treasury finances were never iu better shape than at present The total available cash bal­ ance is upward of ?171.000.000, and the net amount of free gold iu the Treasury, the property of the Govern­ ment is about $00,000,000. This is a handsome showing, considering the re­ ductions made In ln*:emal taxation, and the bond purchases made by the Department during the past three months. Tar Heel Notes.

The tornado is nothing if not original, ft seldom repeats its freaks. Here is what one did out at Napcr, Neb., the other day: Killed one man and seven children an»l injured two others. Every bit of cloth­ ing was stripped from the ten bodies. Rolled up a man’s body into a ball, twining the legs and arms about the neck, so as to make a compact mass. Killed twenty head of stock, tearing the horns out of the heads of a third of them. Stripped the feathers off every young chicken in a flock, while the feathers of fome of the older ones were driven into their bodies several inchcs. One of the small children of a stricken family was pinned undci ; large timber, when she heard her sister calling for aid. Almost immediately the cloud de?cendcd again, lifted the timber and threw it against the other child, killing her in­ stantly. One man had jnst built a new liou.se and had placed the money to pay for it in a trunk. The trunk was carried oft by the wind, and nothing has been seen of its contents with the exception of a silver dollar, which was found cut al­ most completely in two, the parts harfr- ing together by a slender thread of met­al. Not a piece more than a foot long of the timber of any of the houfcs struck could be found. The timbers wero re­ duced to marses of splinters hanging to­gether. Every inmate of one houre. save the mother, was killed. The hu<ban<. and four children were in one room waitin'* for fupper, and the storm came up quickly that they could not even get ou: of the house. The first rescuer on the scene found a woman sitting nude on the side cf a lii’l back of what had been her home. She was apparently lifeless and was clajping her unconscious babe in one arm. The other arm and shoulder had been crushed by a huge timber. Slie aroused with little difficulty. She ha-1 sought to escape the storm, but cxpcri- ®®”sation after it struck lier._ The path of the storm was but a (|iiar- ter of a mile wide. The black cloud quickly formed on the op:n prairie. a:iJ after racing six miles acros.s counJry leaped into the air and was di^^ipalc«I. It came down upon the small town ot Naper, but halted ju.n as it rcaclud the outskirts, receded and then di-'app:arc(i. scattering trees, animals and hnuscliol-i goods over the town.

InflnenclDfi: <he Color of ISattor* The color of butter is largely influ­enced by the food. Butter Is some­ times white and at certain seasons It may be a golden yellow. The coloring of butter by artificial means, such as the use of annatto, will never be neces­ sary where carrots are grown and fed regularly. Cows that receive a variety of food at all seasons of the year will usually produce yellow butter. A Feetllne Pen Gale. When there are any great number of pigs fed in the same pen It Is invaria­ bly the rule that the larger pigs got the greater share of the feed, and in conscqueuee they grow better and the smaller, less active pigs get less feed and are jostled about aud fall farther aud farther behind.

The gate (e) is fastened to the lifting lever (b). which is held at the desired height, admitting the desired sized pig by a pin (a), through the posts and through the lever. The lower hole admits the smaller pigs, but the larger sized can­ not squeeze under. When tho little pigs have satisfied themselves, lift the gate another hole aud admit the next grade, aud so on. Iu this way the smaller pigs will not become stunted by being crowded away from the feed­ ing trough or floor.—J. L. Irwin, In Farm and Home.

Whether it is profitable to annually thin peaches and plums depends some­ what on the man and his market for fi’Uit. Trost, drouth, fungous dis­ eases or iusect p«sts may, uninvited, flo the work of thinning. Hov.'ever, of late years these fruits may be called faii-ly sure crops. To produce annual crops the wise grower will study to get the best returri.s pos.sib!o in fruit and price. Fruit of this kind must have moisture, sunshine aud room. Nature, if left to hsrgelf. has a way setting more fruit than the tree, under usual conditlous. can best grow’ aud ripen, thus not giving a product of high merit. By removing a portion of the promised crop, if too thick, the orchardlst .secures for the remainder a chance to attain a better quality that cducatcd consumers will want and expect to pay for. It costs, of course, to thin fruit, but !£ wisely done it will pay, and our city friends will make good customers when Ijrought to know first-class fruit. Prime fruit easily sells, while the poorer sorts give pleasure to no one. Supposing the fruit has sot too close; this means nearer than four to six inches, depending upon varieties, the larger the fruit the more room. As these fruits while young and growing are subject to mishaps It is better to thin when past the infant state, cay. ca to start ket« Which 3 cut inch holes sides of the basket, cloth must be placed Insii to receive the curd, which is dipped Into It at Intervals after ^ log a proper time for the whey to b ? gin to separate from the curd. For n dipper a plecc tin like a milk skimmer is used. It must be there so as not to break tho curd. A cheese hoop, some cheese boards and a cheese press complete this primitive equip­ ment. The sizes of dairy cheese that sell best are those that weigh from fifteen to twenty-five pounds each. If there are no hoops or press at hand doubtless any dairy supply house could furnish them.only half the battle is won when the cheese is made and out of the press. The curing is a most impor­tant matter, and but few farmhouses have suitable rooms for this purpose where a low, dry temperature can be kept in hot weather. If any one in­ tends to make a business of making dairy cheese a small room should be fitted up with an Ice rack iu the centre aud water drainage from the same. In making dairy cheese from a large number of cows a cheese room or cheese house would be fitted up with factory apparatus and run as a fac­ tory, only on a sm.iller scale. And the cheese made by any factory pro­ cess would be much like the fac^ make, but with the advam ' ^ one herd of____ urnishing the miik that 01 uniform qualitj-.-Alpha Messer, in Orange Judd F.armer. six or eight weeks after blossoming.

Many years ago I owned a small fruit farm near the city of Cleveland, I Onio, in the midst of an extensive fruit-growing district, and had re­ markable success one year with hill culture of strawberries. After enrich­ing tho land with a coat of stable manure drawn from the city. I plant­ed a small plot, little more than one- : eighth of an acre, with Jucundas, ^ solar temperature changed and site sides of the earth. Professor Standfuss, of Zurich, has been studying the effects of solar heat and temperature on butterflies. More than forty thousand butterflies were subjected to close examination. Some degrees more or less change the nature and looks so much that they take on every appearance of having been born in a warmer or colder climate. On one occasion, It being very cold in Switzer­ land, a butterfly common there sud­ denly began to looiv like a butterfly from Lapland. Others subjected to a which were then famous because of looked like butterflies from Corsico or the unique success of James Knox in j The experiments, which are raising them ou the hill-tops above <“ contmued, led to the production Birmingham at Pittsburg.

If oj! wootl IJie nlgbt’s It?d his extensive plantation, and pur­ chased at a high price this famous variety from one of my neighbors, be­lieving from Mr. Knox’s success that they would bo profitable. Tho soil was a dark, gravelly loam In au old orchard. The planting was in the spring. All runners were cut off •during the summer, and the plat was well cultivated with the hoe, the plants being eighteen Inches apart each way. The growth was very strong. During the following winter they were protected by a light cov­ ering of straw. Tho next summer I had them care­ fully gathered by pickers from the clt}*, In baskets holding four quarts with handles. These baskets were rounded up, and all the stems were turned down on the top of the basket, so that no green leaf or stem was visi­ ble. I had the first picking taken to a fruit dealer on the “Square,” near tho wealthy residence portion of the city, whose first offer was $1 a basket. When the second picking was taken the dealer said they were all sold In advance at $1.25 a basket, and If could havo had three or four times as many, the firm would have been glad io obtain them at $1 a basket. They were declared to be the finest lot of strawbeiTies ever seen In Cleveland market. I sold from that small plot .$325 worth of strawberries during that first year’s marketing. The second year they produced well, but uot as fine berries as I might have raised from Wilson plants, cared for as my Jucundas were the preceding year. The person from whom I pur­ chased the plants had a large plat of Jucundas — probably two or more acrcs—planted on clay soil, well un derdralned; but they were very unsat­ isfactory, as the berries did not ripen, but matured iu size while green in color, and they were usually wedge- shaped. My berries were finely formed, the color dark, rica and uni form, and as glossy as though they had been varnished. The flavor ■n*as remarkably rich, almost spicy and vin-' ous, while those raised on clay soil were comparatively tasteless. I be­ lieve that any one having a gravelly or sandy loam might have equally as fine success as myself If they would plant Jucundas on very rich soil, eigh­ teen inches apart each way, and keep all runners cut off. This variety has proved so uncertain that I rarely sec it advertised, but in appearance and in quality I believe they are not equalled by any other variety wheu they are produced In their best form. My crop would aver- aj;e one and a quarter inches in cir­ cumference. Parties who purchased tliem sent them to friends in Boston, Washington aud New York City. I sold the fruit farm before I bad an opportunity, to tiT another experi­ ment with them. If I shall again have a chance with a comparatively loose soil I intend to repeat tho experiment, but I have not had tha^ opportunity.

In accord­ ance with the custom at these annual gatherings, there was an exhibition of preparations from which every ves­ tige of the hateful meat was rigorous­ly excluded. A hardened unbeliever who visited the exhibition was a little astonished to discover at one of the stalls a plate of what looked like cutlets.

If each drug store which has a fountain were sup­ plied with a slender line of hose, which could be attached, many small fires which afterwards grow to large ones could be extinguished promptly. An average soda fountain can force a small stream of water ten or twelve feet. It carries .a pressure of 125 to 380 pounds, which is enough for fire extinguishing purposes. “Many an Incipient blaze has been extinguished by the use of a soda siphon. The great point is to get at the flames at the beginning. If hoso were provided, with attachments by which it could be coupled to the foun­ tain, a saving of thousands of dollars in small fires could be effected each yoar.” ‘'Thackeray Street.** Another nev.* Kenslugtou street name, says the Londou Chronicle, has literao* interest.

Millions of Women use Cuticura Soap in the form of baths for annoying irritations, inflammations, and escoriations, for too free or offensive perspiration, in the form of washes for ulcerative weaknesses, and for many sanative, imtiseptic purposes which readily suggest themselves to women, especially mothers. No amount of persuasion can induce those who have once used these great skin purifiers and beautifiers to use any others, especially for preserving and purifying the skin, scalp, and hair of infants and children, Cuticura Soap combines delicate emollient properties derived from Cuticura, the great skin cure, with the purest ot cleansing ingredients and the most refresh­ ing of flower odours. No other medicated soap is to be compared with it for preserring, purirying, and beautifying the skin, scalp, hair, and hands.

To a question unofficially put as to his avallabiiiiy m case the Depart­ ment should require h.s service, Rear Admiral Howison replied: “I know cf no reason why I should not bs avail­ able for such dutF should the Depart­ment so decide. I have made no public uterance relating to the subject and I have seen none cf the official reports and papers bearirg upon the question? to be decided by he court.”Your counsel. Capt. Parker. l>eforc the appointment had b?cT announc*''!. mentioned to the Acting Secretary t^e names of certalt rear admirals, any one of whom, he said, would be per­fectly satisfactory to Rear Admiral Schley. One of thi* names so mentionc l was that of Rear Atlrairal Howison. It may be added that of four officers con­sulted by the Df.partment, the names^ of three were upDn the list thus mei tioned by your counsel. This much^' been detailed in order to reminj of the fact that a falr-mlndi of excellent reputation and ished character had been f; person of Rear Admiral at the date of h s ap< to have enjoyed the the Department .i;quest is based n il __ ping that p u r^ B P ^ '“' - Tnents to containto the truth of whW "^^B^nct yourself express an op'n’cn. ^ yon ask the Department b lay be­fore Rear Admiral Howison a state­ ment, wholly unsubstantiated, that ap­pears to have been made by some per­ son unknown u a time and place ^kc- wise unknown. The Departmtnt 5s rn- able to view your request in any other light than thLt of a preliminary chal­lenge ot the fitness of Rear Admiral Howison to serve as a member of the court It will be treated as is usual !n cases of courts of Inquiry. The estab­ lished practice in the military as well as in the naval ser^ncc has fixed the methods in v'hich the rlr.’U of chal­ lenge before 'ourt-martial and courls of inquiry shall be exerclsei.

In one comer of the room was a trunk, the lid of wb4ch was open, and about the trunk was a pile of clothing. Naturally she went to this pile of clothing to look for the desired garment. On raising the tray of the tronk she was confronted with sight which for a few minutes render­ ed her speecheless with horror, al though she lives In a section which has grown hardened to crime in varied forms. The Sehorn woman lay dead In the bottom of the trunk. The head had been almost severed from the body, presumably with an axe. Seven-Inch Shell Explodes.

According to some of the members of the American Association for tho Advancement of Sciencc. which will meet in Denver next month, the gey­ sers of Yellowstone Park will fome day disappear. Some of the scientists in­ sist that the decline of the geyser i-s so rapid that the present generation will see the last of them.

In a letter he says: ‘’The rapid declinc of the geyser phe­ nomena in the Yellowstone National Park scenti to be but little understood, but to those who will visit tJie spot fre­ quently, the changes seem startling, and to the geologist alarmingly rapid. If one may judge from impressions,, it. seems safe to assume that if the decline in geyser activity noted during the past four years should continue for the com­ ing eight or ten years, the features which most impress the geologist will have disappeared. As a warning every geologist who intends visiting the park should not postpone the trip a year, but sliould visit it at once. It may be stated generally that this decline of activity is manifest in the geysers, the mud geysers and paint pot.% pools and steam vents, many of which have become wholly or partly extinct in the last four years. “As specific cases it may be stated that at the mammoth hot springs the ac­ tivity seems not one-tenth that of for­ mer times. Minerva terrace having be­ come extinct (since 1895) the discharge* from Pulpit and Jupiter terraces has greatly declined during the same time, and the Narrow Gauge—a fissue vent— and otlier attractions becoming ail but extinct. Roaring Mountain is now si­ lent though steaming. In the Norris Geyser basin the Black Growler is less active. In the Lamar basin the splen­ did Fountain geyser is extinct, with a feeble substitute nearby named the Dewey. The Giant Paint Pots arc grwtly contracted in size, t^c pink half being extinct in the upper basin. Some of the better known as well as many of the lesser geysers, are extinct, or sup­ posed to be. Among these are the Splendid geyser and the Bee Hive. The Grand gey.‘;er, which used to play daily, now erupts irregularly about three times a season. The Cascade, which erupted about every quarter of an hour 1^5. now plays once a day. The unmistakable impression of frequenters of the park is that the changes are se­ rious and much more rapid than is gen­ erally belicved.'—Denver Rspublican. "House ot the Sun.” On the island of Maui, a sail of ninety miles from Honolulu, there is the largest volcanic crater in the world. It is on the summit of Haleakala. which in­ terpreted. means the “House of the Sun.” Few Americans have ever seen it. It is the crater of an extinct vol­ cano. and not even a shadowy native tradition recalls the time of its activity. Still it is a yoimg mountain, as moun­ tains go, for its sides have not yet been seamed and broken into valleys by the action of wind and stream. Nor is it easy to realize that it is two miles high for it raises its huge bulk from the kvcl of the Pacific in smooth and gradual slopes,--------------------------------------- {<nes and bad«crd froju their 1 : enter.

Beside.s, the ‘buds’ detract from the ‘blossoms.’”“You are youthful enough to rank v.*ith the buds,” he smiled with a sud­ den gleam of sanity and gallantry. “Is Miss JIaydey quite well?”“Very well, thank you. In fact she la a little too brisk and lively for my nerves sometimes.”“Keally? Now I thought her the quietest, demurest of little maids—f' may be permitted to express any thought about so charming a 3*oung lady.”Ho spoke with an affected Ughincss that was more Intense than the great­ est earnestness. Evidently the sister understood his case. She turned her beautifully dressed head aside for an instant, and her mouth quivered with stippressed mirth. ‘Ah, that Is her ‘society’ manner, anu will deijart when she has seen a season or two,” she afiirmed. “AVhen we are alone, I assure you, she Is the most provoking, teasing, laughing, mlschiev- ous child you could possibly find. She has no reverence for my dignity or my toilets. Yesterday she burst in upon me with the avow^ed intention of ‘mak­ ing me giggle.” ”He was listening with attentive ears —the ears of a lover to whom any and everything concerning his mistress Is of more Importance than the total in­stantaneous disappearance of a great nation or the collaps3 of all the thrones of Europe. Suddenly he saw tlie vel­ vet curtain—which draped one side of tlie lIower-flllc<l fireplace, at which he was looking—quiver strangely. Scarce­ ly a breath of wind came In through the open windows, and the grate was blocked entirely b3' a sheet of painted looking glass. Moreover, the curtain on the other side hung more flatly and closely than its quivering fellow, which bulged out here and there In a manner unknown to artistic upholst­ erers.A suspicion -flashed through his dazed brain. He sat up with renewed energy and said:“You are describing a very charm­ ing character. I am half In love with your description of a girlish life and waywardness.”He paused and saw the curtain give a quick, wavering, tremidous convul­ sion to Its folds, which instantly be­ came still again as he continued:“Do you think it worth a man’s while to try to exist with half a h?a:t?”“Really.” said the lady. “I am not a sppciailftt In diseases of the heart.” “But.” he pleaded, “you have brok CK so many to heal one that your er- perlence must bo of value, and your opinion vei7 well worth hearlng->llke that of a general practitioner/* m ^ THe was curtain beca and fro. Well,” said the sii tlilnk you are too greedy, belonging to one person Is as unni as no heart.” What shall I do? Persuade the thief to exchange the bobty and share It?”“That would be best, I think,’* she said, laughing, and looking In his eyes. He flushed and stared at the now motionless curtain. Then he looked back at her questlonlngly. The youag dame nodded her fair head slightly, and picked up a piece of needlework lying on a work basket. A light flashed Into his eyes. He put the cup and saucer he had been holding In his hands down ou the tray and half roso from his chair. The lady motioned him to sit down.Well, hearts are artful things often, and all the task and discussion of them Is artless,” she said. “Let us, be sensible.”“Are we ever sensible?” he said stupidly. X don’t know. I wonder if we arc most sensible when we are most senseless? They say Insane people always fancy themselves sane and others Insane. How queer If all the lunatics are really sensible and all the sensible world (as we think ourselves) Insane! Isn’t It a gruesome Idea? See what comes of speaking of Impossibili­ ties I”Are you sure we have been talking of Impossibilities?” he inquired anxi* ously.What is an impossibllty—a future certainty?”I hope,” said he. '' 1 am not perfectly sure. W’ho can be? But I think that Is a right defin­ ition.”Still he looked at the curtain (whose strange Inequalities were continually and slowly shifting over Its velvet sur­ face) and the sister said quickly: iTc tional' ment tha?In the summ& this point.

It Is ex­ pected that a new Impetus to road- building w'ill thus be given to all parts of the country.In connection wit^». tills It Is inter­esting to note some of the changes and plans for road Improvement that have been made by the State of New York for the coming year. It Is estimated from o/flclal figures that contracts will bo given out this year for road im­ provements In the State Involving an expenditure of nearly a million dol- lar.««. The State has appropriated' $•120,000 for road improvements for the current year, and about a similar sum will be expended by the different coun­ ties. This State appropriation is in strong contrast with past sums voted for road improvements, and Is more than twice the amount ever turned over by the Legislature for such pur­ poses. In 1890 the sum appropriated for State highways amounted In round numbers to 5150,000, and In the two preceding years ?50,000 each, mak­ing the current appropriations much larger than for the three previous years.The expenditure for the current year is no Indication of c.^travagance, but I rather a conservative and sensible out- is over some tl: 39 was made' ing and sent ouF There is serious trouSl line between Black M0I Round Knob.

They never receive any. and as far as can be found out have no reason to expect any; but they arc animated by a vague hope that some­ thing may turn up in the shape of a letter, some communnicatlon may be received to their advantage- During tho last few dayslt has been observed that those who most eagerly road the bulletins and notices In front of a sus­ pended bank were people who could not possibly have any real interest in the documents. They came, however, day after day, a kind of out-at-the- elbows crowd, and scanned the bull2- tlns as though they expectcd to see notices as to where their own checks would be paid. It was apparently the; one chance In a million that they might see something to their advan­ tage—a possible remittance from some unknown relative.

Mr. Phillips says hf expacts to begin business within tv/o weeks. ten'the ?^ate nd the book con- ilows: said party of the second Ter convenants and agrees to each and all of the books or rilcations embraced in this contract "at the exchange price or prices herein named,In those cases where there is of­fered in part payment an old book which was in use in the State of North Carolina on tha 8th day of February, 1£01, or which was in use on .Tuly 3si, 1001. or which was in use between said dates, and which is of like grade and upon the same subjects as the one foi which it is taken in part payment pro­vided that the time in which old books heretofore in use in the State of North Carolina can be exchanged for new books, be limited to July 1st, A. D., 1901.” The text-book laws which made a part of the contract decia that the exchangeable books shall “books now in use in this State.” date February 8th, 1901, mentioned in the contract, being tie date of the rati­ fication of the act. In your letetr you say “if only the pupils of schools taught since February 1st, 1901, are al­lowed to exchange, then the exchange of books would benefit but a small part of the public school patrons,’’ alludin.? to the date mentioned in this letter of Mr. Brewer. Acvrding to my con­struction of the law and the contract made with the contractors, the clause “school books now in use in this State” determines what books can be exchanged, and these words as used in the act mean those books taught in previous sessions of the school and such books as would be used by pat­rons in the schools of this State if the General Assembly had not enacted the present law porviding for the adoption of new booTis. I do not think the certificate, a copy of which you enclose, and prepared by the contractor, to be signed by the teacher of the public school, and un­dertaking to define the conditions upon, which an exchange of books can be effected by a public school patron is authorized under -the text-book law. The statute does not confer upon the contractors authority to issue instruc­ tions to the managers of school vook depositories, designed as their own in­terpretation of the conditions under ^bich an exchauge of school books can be effected, these questions being, in my opinion, within the jurisdiction of the State text-book commission to be determined in accordance with the law and the contract entered into with the publishers. Section 14 of the text-book law declares: “That the said commis­sion may, from time to time, make any necessary regulations not contrary to the provisions of this act lo securc the prompt distribution of a book herein provided for and the prompt anj faith­ ful performance of all contracrs,” and for this purpose it is expressly provid­ ed in the said act that the te.<t-hook commission shall maintain its organi­zation during the five years which is the period fixed for the expiration of all contracts entered into between the State and the book publishers. In my opinion the execution of the law with reference to the exchange of school books should not be attend ed i>y any difficulty. TTie law clearly contem­plates that any book of a certain grade and on a certain subje-^t which has been used in the public schools, and which is in a condition to be used, and v/ould have been used but for the passage of the text-book law, can be exchanged for a book of a similar grade and on a similar subject at the contract abselutely without any condi« tions imposed by the contractors. ei Cali* Chicago, 'Mr. Stoddard ■ster.

M*tL 4 CO.. lMe»A N._M, SelM opoted Ta; EXEBAL BOY S' recently in a speech J kersburg.W.Va.: "AmongT tuxes which the farmers pay are some that.are unavoidable, and these it is useless to talk about. There are others which farmers impose upon themselves, which they hesitate to Bhare with others, which they submit to without a protest, and even cling to when they are being removed, Taose taxes we cannot talk about too much. These are taxes, too, which bring no u.seful revenue, nor even sup­ port a tax gatherer; they are burdens sis needless as the traditional stoco which balanced the grist on the way to mill. “Through (he failure of the Govern- mcfit iu the original surveys of the public lands to lay out a scientific sys teni of roads, aud divide tlie lands ac- cordinglj’, farmers have been left to by out the ronds for themselves, and generally they have put them on farm lines, going over all the hills that come iu their way. The result of this is the hill tax in hilly regions aud what may bo callcd the square corner tas oa the prairies. “The amount of hill tax I have estl mated in one county iu New Jersey, ana found that needless bills double a:l the cost of hauling in the county, n'.aking practically a money tax of .?10,0C0 annually to the township. The people have paid this tax for 300 years, aud yet they wonder why they are poor. In ihe prairie regions, for want of the diagonal roads which the Government should have laid out. the f.arnier., to reach a point ten miles to the northwest, for Instance, ti'avels scvcu miles north and seven miles west, adding forty per cent, to his dis­ tance, or, for the average of all travel, twenty per cent. This is the square corner tax. “The mud tax is probably about equal in total to the hill tax. and this, again, doubles the cost of all wagon transportation; yet nianj’ farmers are opposed to stoue roads, “However, the farmers themselves are doing away in many places with the enormous burden of the fence tax, r.nd with it will go the snowdrift tax and the waste land on the roadside. They are slowly abandouiu.g narrov.’ tires and traolcing wheels. Moreover, m.iuy of them begin to realize tho enormity aud absurdity of the hill, mud .aud square corner taxes, and wo may hope iu time to see in this coun- trj’, as we do in France, beautiful hard roads everywhere, winding through farms, with crops growing close to the wagon tracks aud the i*oads serving perfectly every purpose of public use and private convenience. “You ask how all this can be accom­ plished without a burden of taxation which will neutralize Its benefifs. I answer that It is all being done to-day 1- a hundred places in tho United States, and there are farmers who ac­ knowledge that they are getting rich in these hard times solely by reason of the improved roads which have been forcL^d upon them, au(^ are raying with perfect ease any additional tax they impose. These Improved roads are being built in many ways aud in various forms of construction, ai'd every year’s experience reduces the cost and brings about nn easier pro­ viding of the necessary means. “It would be a very long story to go into the details in this direction, and I would not be prepared to say which is the best of the many methods of con­ struction and of payment. Both need to be gi-eatly varied to meet the con­ditions in the various States, and a careful study of local legislation is uecessaiy; but tho vital question Is for the farmers themselves to settle gen­ erally whether they want good roads» and whether they will accept the help of those who are willing aud anxious to join in paying the cost of road Im­provement. If they will take up the subject'in all their organizations and appoint active working committee to visit the nearest accessible localities where good roads prevail, aud to urge such legislation as will make them at­tainable everywhere, the work will soon reach a point where its own mo- Lientum will carry It forward. “The estimate of your able secre* tary that $000,000,000 is wasted annu­ ally in this country through bad roads is supported by that of other statisti­ cians, and from this it appears that the tax they impose takes, one-quarter o£ tho whole value of all farm pro­ducts in the United States. To abol­ ish this tax Js a reform great enough to engage the best attention of this Congress. It is a practical and practi­ cable field for its energies. What the Ckingrcss says on this subject will be listened to everywhere, while what It says on other subjects may fall on deaf ears.” Tlic C rusade In K entucky. The women of Kentucky are evinc­ ing much interest in the good roads movoment. Fully one-half of the 2000 persons present at a convention at Hopkinsville to advocate road im­ provement the other day were women. And the fact that a great many faruj- ers, too, were there in spite of this being their most busy season was very cncour.iging to the projectors of the assemblage. Fifteen counties were represented by storekeepers, manufac­ turers. professional and public men, as well as the agriculturists. Gov- srnor Beckham spoke, and said he thought much more of good roads than he did of building political fences, and that he is more interested In building up Kentucky industrially than he is iu the making of any politi­ cal slato A^audODed Trip.

The duty of the next Col _ to enact tariff legislation of ai , but to let it alone. The buslne^ the country is on an excellent basl: and prosperous. Tariff tinkering al­ ways serves to inject an element of uncertainty into the business affairs of the country, and if I am any judge that is just what the people of the country do not w’ant. As to trusts we do not know yet W’hether they are detrimental to the country or not. Time will tell, and after we are sure of our ground there will be plenty of time to act. I do not take much stock in this talk about trusts and (he tariff being closely allied as public questions.I am not an apologist for trusts or capitalistic combinations, in whatever form, but I wish it could be more generally comprehended that a vast deal of talk that connects tariffs and trusts is the veriest bosh—political claptrap. The trusts, so called, combinations of capital and Interest, are a new de­ velopment of the groat business sys­ tem wherein this country is so rapidly taking the lead. Such combinations are effected in accordance witli the laws of (he country, and we have nothing upon which to base a belief that their operation will w’ork a hard­ship to humanity. We are hearing a great deal of the great trusts as consliluling a monacc to individual freedom, but this is mere speculation. Nothing has developed lo justify belief iu the truth of such fears. The plentitudo of mongy, the energy and activity of the American people and the Inevitability of compe­ tition in an age like this, will militate against the existence of monopolies. AVith reference to the tariff difhcul' ties now attracting attention betw'eeu this country and Russia, this is a mat­ ter that has never been before the Senate, but there Is every probability that an adjustment of the dilTercncc satisfactory to both couni rics will be reached. I am a believer In the adop­ tion of reciprocal treaties, but it must be borne In mind that many of the treaties that have come before the Senate have been of so one-sideri a character as to render their rejection lmi)erativc. FBAXCIS E. WABREN. SENATOR PRITCHARD, OP NORTH CAROLINA. Editor American Economist: I do aot thhilc it wise to undertake to change the Dingley tariff law at this time. It Avas framed at a time when the country was in dire distress In con­ sequence of the unwise and injudicious legislation contained in tho Wilson- Gorman tariff act, and its provisions wore enacted with a view of meeting thi emergency whicli confronted us at that time. It wa.s constructed so as lo reach every branch of human indus­ try, and Its enactment has resulted in giving us tho greatest prosperity that has ever been known in the history of the United. Slates, and we should not icrmit the question of trusts aud those who seek to make It an l.ssue loi influcuce us iu tho slightest degree In our treatment of the tariff queslion. Experience leaches us that any at­ tempt to commit thl.s country to tlu- theoiy of free trade invariably resulls in business demoralization. The pco pie of the South are just beglniiing t<i appreciate the manifold blessings in­ cident to llepubjican rule, aud they at- tribuie our success In a great measure to the workings of the Din.gley bill. We arc to day enjoying a tlogrce of prosperity iiLver dreamed of before, aud any attempt to change oxisilng rates in our tariff schedules w'ill be met with a determined resistance on ithe part of those who are in favor of •developing the SjjUh’s wonderful re­ sources. There is but one way to reach unlawful combinations, and that is by amending our Conslitutiou so as to give Congress power to deal with the question In au intelligent manner, and any attempt to punish such com­binations by reducing tariff rates will result in injury to tho real friends of the people, as well as those who earn their living by their daily labor. Tho conditions that resulted from the pas­ sage of the Wilson-Gorinan act should be a warning lo us forall time to come. J . C . F R I T C H A R D . CONGRESSMAN GREENE, OP MASSACHUSETTS. Editor American Economist: I am not among the number who deem it prudent for the Fifty-seventh Con gress to agitate for a general revision tf the tariff legislation known as the Dingley law. The tariff reformers aud free traders have not been inclined to recall to the minds of their fellow- countrymen the business conditions which preceded the enactment oi the Dingley law by urging that their llieo- ries might have another chance to put iiito practice until Congressman Bab­ cock (I think ill advisedly) brought the siAjeet to tho attention of the Fifty-sixth Congress, and his action has naturally provoked discussion. One of the earliest acts of the Amer­ ican Congress was the passage of a tariff act to protect the American .man­ ufacturer and laborer. Legislation of this character has never been burden­some to our own people, but when­ever t,he law has been wisely adminis- t.red there has been great growth and a broad development of the coun­ try’s resources, and at no time has it been more apparent than during the past four years, with the result that our home market, the gi’eatest in the world, has been stimulated and in­ creased, and, besides, we are now pos­ sessed of the largest foreign trade ever recorded in tbe nation's life. In my opinion it w’ould be very un­ wise to exchange a tariff which pro­ duces sufficient revenue for the needs of the Government for another which •• Bain“ Fhilac-^•* N a w Y^\ L v.
