viii you and your contemporaries be so kind
as to let up on the English sparrow? This per-
secution is not only inhospitable-it is unjust
The sparrow was imported on the urgent sug-
gestion of the press and others. 1t has not full
filled its mission, you say. If such be true (and
l seriously doubt IT'D whose is the fault? Why
did not our ornithologists send an agent across
the sea to note the habits of the sparrow on its
native heath ere inviting it over here? Because
our guest eats the crumbs from our tables and
nibhles at peach bud or two, is it established
beyond question that it does not eat the grubs,
etc, that are found on the trees? Certainly.
any one who has eyes for the bird on the con-
crete streets cannot but notice it Is not partcu-
lar as to Its diet. In this regard SO far from
calling it a grain-feeding bird. might we more
properly class 1t as scavenger? Your editorial
remarks and selected articles on the subject
have oft insisted that the English sparrow drives
off other birds. l say it does not. Perhaps
other birds do not exactly fraternize with 1t, but
of other birds. Why, last fall and winter the
sleek-feathered, white-hilled snow-bird has been
seen messing with the sparrow and you have
lately quoted the Atlanta Constellation TO the ef-
feet that the blne-bird 0he pet worm-kiner Of
Georgia farmer) 60 can whip the English spar

Ing from practical rural sources have heard,
at frequent intervals, in adjacent trees, the
sweet notes of the oriole and field lark. and the
place swarms with sparrows from morning till
twilight. Another pOint-this frightening
away OF the sparr0ws will surely do the same
for other birds. whether they are shot at or
their nests invaded. Birds may not regard
some OF their species with particular love, but
they are fully capable of pausing in an inferno
cine warfare to promptly recognize a common
enemy and you cannot by any means explain
to the feathered tribe that what you are doing
against the sparrow may not sooner or later be
done to the others. Trust the word of an anna
teur observer Of bird flesh for that Finally. is
itnot barely possible that, consciously or uncon-
sciously, this severe arraignment OF the English
sparrow has Its cOincdent origin in the disgust
which some ultra social or fashionable customs
imported here from England has inspired.

newspapers would like to send back the whole
tribe of these bedeviled brownies to their native
shores In custOdy-we will say-0f the peerless

The district and county elections In this state

these elections afford justify a reference TO them
at this late day. The old democratic party
gained several counties In the state. which
shows that some OF the readjusters are drifting
back into the old party fold and possibly that
some OF the colored voters have gone in the
same direction. Some are still talking over,

election. A portion of the republicans. the
majority, have no question that the readjusters
mainly are not TO be relied on 10 vote for re-.

Corn came up poorly this spring. Much Of il

damaged by the wet autumn keeping the corn
damp until there were freezes. Corn does not

the rains have been so frequent that there has
not been time 20 cure 1t properly between them

10 the Editor Of The EVENING STAB:

To the Editor Of The EVENING STAB:
The question Is often asked by persons who
frequent Iowa Circle why there is no drinking
water in It. II there is any good reason for
this seeming neglect 1 have never, In my
opinion, heard one given. The little ones who
visit this pretty park feel this want very much
these hot days. In order to satisfy their thirst
one has to walk block or two TO obtain water.
The government can 1t least frnish Potomac
water. There Is Q daily visitor to this park
who, amagine, b furnished more water at
times than he wants, but It Is from aboye! I
refer to,the faithful and vigilant watchman who
does duty there, and who has no shelter to pro-
tect him from tho Indictment weather. This
park IL entirely devoid OF conveniences pro-
vided for other parks, and doubt II there Is
another park IN this city that has more visitors.
Why II IT. pEO R0No PUbLICo.
