THE FRUIT BLIGHT.
Thorough Investigation Made as to
the Cause.
From, the Griffin (Gu.) Call.

From the Griffin (GG.) eau
DIR. Irwin F. Smith, a scientist from the
bureau of agriculture, department of vege-
table pathology, who has been in our midst
for several weeks investigating the nature
and cause of what appeared to be blight
in pear, peach and apple trees, concluded
his labors and yesterday left for home,
where he will make an elaborate report as
to the discoveries he made while here.
In brief interview with Cal reporter
before he left, DR.. Smith said that apple
and pear blight was prevalent everywhere
in Georgia, and was very destructive. He
said, however, that it was less destructive
in large branches, and was mainly, if not
entirely, caused by microbe-a small insect,
that made up in number what it lacked in
size, and manifested itself in almost every
orchard in Georgia.
AS remedy he suggested heavy pruning
of branches affected, and where q microbes
were in the body or roots of the tree he
recommended determination of the tree by
digging I'D and burning. In his final re-
port he will recommend a chemical prepare
ton to be applied by spraying the foliage

Attention is called to the Communica-

Hutchinson, is distinguished engineer,
member Of the Crystal Palace commits
sion at London In 1851, member Of the
Royal Society Of Engineers Of Great
Britain and for many years was at the
head Of the engineering department Of
the Midland railway Of England. His
estimate Of the cost and frultage TO the
railroads in hauling the present corn
crop from Kansas is, therefore, based on
something more substantial than vague
speculation After showing that the
roads make from $1O,OOO,OOO to $4,000.

along, Mr. Fernle asks, "What will the
railroads do TO help the farmerp
The whole state echoes the inquiry,
A month or more ago Governor Hum

several Kansas roads, presenting the stu
alton from the point Of view Of agriculture
and urging that the railroads reduce the
freight on corn to point more equitably
proporionate TO the value Of the product
and the cost of transportation. From this
voluntary solicltude Of the governor, done
without any such blare of trumpets as
has occurred elsewhere, and referred to
here without the governors knowledge
or consent, the present demand for re-
duced rate has followed and tomorrow
the representatives Of the various roads
meet with the governor to consult on the
problem.
II a reduction Of the rate meant an ad-
dition of so much to the price Of fcorn, the

After nearly eighteen years Of ser

by the situation and desires to know
just how he may "most satifaci0rilg

suited the demands formulated by
the Farmers Alliance and Industrial
Union, and ratified by the Knights Of
Labor, and the Grange, and the Mu-
tUal Benift Association, which classes
constitute by far Che larger part Of his
constituents in the states and he would
have been more likely TO have rO-
ceived correct information as to their

any single individual citizen. The
letter Of the Senator, on the whole
smacks slightly Of the demagogue
rather than the faithful representa-

he will manifest greater familiarity
with the Vje,cs and the wants Of the

has been greatly crippled lately; but Il
has not been through Kansas business.

For three years they have been struggling

The following letter mas D9en re-
ceived by Hon. Eli Sherman of Web
ster Kans. in reply to q letter written
the Senator in reference to legislation
for the relief Of industrial interests.

Columbia,
WASHINGTON, d. c., Jan. A, 80.
Hon. Ell SHERMAN,
Webster, Kansas.
MY DEAR Sm;-In reply TO yours of the
10Th ult., which found on my return from
Kansas this week, will say that the farm
ers Of Kansas have just grounds Of complaint
at the low prices for products and the made
quate results of their labor, but all kinds of
business share in the depression and they
are not alone in the burden which they bear.
This condition results from the operation of
causes which legislation does not produce
and which statutes cannot cure. There are
some things which congress ought to do aud
TO which the republican party stand pledged.
We need more currency understands should
be imposed upon the greed and rapacity of
corporations. The President and the repub-
liCan maiOrities in both Houses Of Congress
are fully in sympathy with the laboring
classes and / am confident that some meas
ure will be adopted that will redeem the
pledges that have been made. should be
glad if you would let me know personally
what you think should be done in order that
may most satisfactorily represent the
views and interests Of my constituents.
Very Truly Yours,
JNo. J. INGALLS,
The Senator states that the depres-
sion which is burdening every indus
try in the land results from the
operation Of causes which Legislation
does not produce, and which statutes
cannot cure" Following this state
ment the Senator proceeds to point
out certain things which congress
ought to do, and to which, he says
"therepublican party stands pledged"
Among these he mentions the neces-
sity Of an increase OF the currency,
and thelmposition Of restraints ''upOn
tho greed and rapacity Of corpora
tions." There seems to be a certain
incongruity- a lack OF adhesion as IT,
were--in the statements Of our bril-

Dutch Training Mt Sen.

When the Prinz Frederik collided with
the English ship Marpessa on June 25 the
commander of a detachment of Dutch
colonial forces which happened to be on
board Immediately ordered the assembly
sounded, and the men fell in on the deck
like clockwork in the face of certain loss
to the ship. Their conduct was an in
valuable example to the passengers and
crew, for, although the entire company
were then transferred to the boats with
perfect quiet and dispatch, the Prinz
Frederik went down as the last boat left
her side. She carried with her six Dutch
privates and an officer, who doubtless
had been overwhelmed by the waters
rushing in at the point of collision. -

The Red Cross Society.

Senator Sherman has introduced in
the senate a bill to incorporate the Red
Cross society, with Clara Barton, George
Kennan and other well known persons
as incorporators. The purpose of this
society, briefly stated, is to mitigate dis
tress in the emergencies of war and
peace. This mission of humanity and
charity has been amply justified on
many occasions, and nowhere more nota-
bly, than in the appalling calamity at
Johnstown, in this state. Valuable as
the Red Cross society has proven in the
past as volunteer auxiliary of the gov
ernmental departments its future in an
incorporated form should show an in
creased measure of usefulness. -Phila-
