A FLAT DIBBER-IMPROVED DIBBER.
The two styles illustrated, while APP
parently made by some manufacturer,
have neither been patented nor energeti-
cally pushed to the front. The authority
quoted gives preference to the fiat heart
shaped pattern. with handle similar to
that of a spade. The blades are of steel,
and greatly superior to the wooden or
iron pointed tools in common use. These
latter are as inferior to polished steel
dibber as a wooden pillow is to a steel
pillow. Three times the number of plants
can be put into the ground with the
newer device, Ind they will be planted
out much firmer. Any blacksmith can
make the tool. and once tried it will be
highly priced.

An Improved Dibber.

Generally speaking, the dibbers IN
popular use are yet the same clumsy
affairs which have done service in the
gardens for generations. These old tool7
are by no means perfect, hence we take
pleasure in reproducing from Popular
Gardening something better and more
convenient

Display of Fruits at the Semi-Tropi-
cal Exposition.

The display of citrus fruits at the Semi
Tropical Exposition in Ocala last week
was very fine considering the number of
exhibitors and to repeat the words utter
ed by another, "the finest exhibit of
citrus frui is ever produced in the world
considering the number of varieties and
the quality of the fruit"
Mr.. E. III. Hart of Federal Point made
the largest display having SO varieties of
oranges and 6 OF lemons and one of grape
fruit neatly arranged in boxes and on
plates.
Rev. Lyman Phelps ofSanford as usual
had fine collection of the different va
rieties also neatly and tastefully ar
ranged.
D. W. Adams of Tangerine had his 36
varieties of oranges and z of lemons
temptingly arranged on the table among
which was the Bessie, an orange originat-
ing on his own place.
Mr.. E. FL. Hubbard of Federal Point
also had his display temptingly arranged
which will appear next week, it not only
stood we'll in appearance but scored high
in flavor, juiciness etc.
Among the smaller exhibitors was
Mr.. R. W. Pierce of Indian Springs.
While his exhibit was not extensive it
was somewhat interesting. A very beau
tiful looking Pomelo bore this card GA
grape fruit sent out by the Department.
of Agriculture as a Peruambuco orange"
1t was a most beautiful color, lighter
than the ordinary kind and of medium
size. His navels bearing the label: cold
Warriors" Young Recruits" from the
United States Navy were more of sam
pie of freaks of nature than Of fine fruit.
DR.. S. W. Moody of Ocala also display
ed a few plates, among which were the
Eichelberger variegated orange, and sew
eral other varieties.
Rev. J. F. Richmond of Okahumpka
had four plates, one of brakes Star, two
of Parson Brown Navel and one of Sicily
emons.
Mr.. James Mott of Orlando exhibited
plate of his Aurantium Pomelo.
Mr. Walters of Belleview had a fine
plate of the POmelo which bears his name.
F. HI. Little of Ocala exhibited one
plate of oranges.
R. D. Hoyt of Bay View, one plate of
lemons.
O. p Rocks, of Fruitland Park, one
plate of lemons and one of citron.
Z. R. Gary, of Ocala, one plate of or
anges.
In our next issuewe hopeto publish the
scoring of the different varieties of citrus
fruits exhibited and a careful perusal of
them will show the best varieties, as it
will be seen that such varieties as the
Jaffa, Majorca, Maltese Blood, ETC., all
scored high in whichever exhibit they APP
peared. This score alone will be worth a
years subscription to the AGRICTLTURIsT
to any fruit grower in the State.

II does not touch the root OF the evil.
The real problem is how to secure a
class OF agricultural laborers and
mechanics here who will be in har-
mony with all the higher needs OF
the country, who will understand
and be in sympathy with civilized
institutions, who will furnish stabil
ity and strength to the government,
who will make real and abiding CIV
ilizaton here a possibility. This is
a task of vital Importance to the best
interests of the nation, overshsdow-
ing by its magnitude everything else.
Yet few realize it, no political party
has programme in regard to it,
lesser issues crowd it out OF sight and
mind. And yet. unless the task is
performed, we can never have any
civilization in this country. There
will be handful of great capitalists
at the top, a mass of coolies at the
bottom, and nothing between. That
is not prospect which can be cheer
ing even to the capitalists, to say
nothing of others. 1t is there and
not far away, and yet people shut
their eyes to it, repeat parrot like,
Sugar can only be raised at profit
with cheap labor" and are content
to do nothing.
The party which solves this pro-
lem will have the only divine right
to govern, which can survive the
criticism of our democratic century.

THE LABOR QUESTION IN HAWAII

There is no issue in Hawaiian
politics, which can compare in i'm
portance with the problem of labor.
The prosperity of the country is
more Immediately dependent in Its
solution than on anything else.
The treaty itself involves intimately
the we'll being of the country. Con
gress will undoubtedly reduce heav-
ily if it does not ultimately abolish,
the tariff on sugar, so that the adj
vantage of the Hawaiian product
over other countries will greatly
diminish or altogether disappear
This is result which We must look
forward to with reasonable certainty.
1t may be, every one hopes it will
be, remote, but it is pretty sure to
come some time.

TIE Bulletin in its new role as q
circulstor of venomous innuendo
has lately added & new one to its
list Some time sgo, during the
election csmpsign) it stated that
there wss an ugly rumor' current
in the town. to the effect that GER
tain member of the Legislature had
taken five hundred dollars to de-
fend the Chinese, in thst body. 1t
then proceeded to comment on the
aforesaid ~rumor" as though it were
true. A well grounded fear of s
libel suit however prevented the
Bulletin from being more explicit,
although it wss earnestly desired
to furnish more definite charges.
The rumor remained persistently
ugly Gt naturally did not grow
less SO in the Bulletins hands, but
also persistently vague
Now the Bulletin comes with 6
fresh insinustion- This time it is
certsin newly elected Hawaiian
members, whom the Reform party it
appears are trying to work on the
Chinese plan" The report figures
too. not as ugly" but as well
authenticated

our contemporaries information Is
well authenticated. it may be pub
hshed without the least solicitude.

letin against damages If the re-

be as helpful here as it has in most
cases where it has been tried else
where. 1t cannot be applied in the
cultivation of sugar cane as long as
industry is carried ON with Asiatic
labor. but it might be perhaps, If
another and better class of labor
should be secured. Who will risk
something in the interests of pro
gress and make the experiment.

THE TIMES-PARNELL CASE.

Inc history OF the long Times
Psrnell controversy seems to be
about to reach final close. So far
as the personal issue between the
parties is concerned, the affair has
ended in triumph for MIR. Psrnell.
The libel suit of the latter has been
withdrawn, so the statement runs,
and the Times has paid Mr.. Parnell
a round $4,000.
| Outside of England people will
generally agree that the Times has
only got what it deserved and is
lucky to have come off so easily.
1t is said that the Parnell commits
sion will shortly make report, so
that its multitudinous labors have
also reached their term. The public
long since ceased to take any active
interest in the affair, and the six
column reports of the Times have
found continuously fewer readers.
1t is impossible, as Sir Chas. Russell
pertinently observed, to indite a
whole nation. Yet that is virtually
what the evidence brought before the
commission has reduced itself to.
As an attempt on the part of the
Conservatives to discredit and break
down the Irish Opposition-and it is
difficult to avoid looking on the affair
in this hght-the commission has
proved q failure. The main point,
the point in which all the world as
well as Great Britain were inter
ested, was the question of the au-
thenticity of the letter published by
the Times, as Parnell's. When these
letters were proved to be forgery
on the evidence of the forger him
self, the attack of the Times
broke down, and the general
public ceased to interest itself
in the affair. To all intents
and purposes this was a complete
victory for Mr. Parnell. The ques-
ton of the authorship of the letters
was, to the mind of the wide public
beyond England, the only issue.
While this is true, it is still posi-
bic that the ultimate findings of the
Commission may be injurious to MIR.
Parnell. 1t is said that the report
will not exonerate him from failing
to discriminate between organiza
tons for the purpose of peaceful
agitation and those counseling and
doing violence. The English mid
die class have strong love for law
and order, and it is possible that the
result of the investigation may dis
credit Mr. Parnell with them, and
hence weaken the cause of Home
Rule 1t is by no means unlikely
that AIr. Parnell has sinned in the
manner indicated. He would hardly
be an Irishman if he had not.
No one and no cause, how
ever, viii or can suffer so much
in public estimation from the
whole transaction az the Times
itself. Its course with regard to
Mr.. Parnell has done much to drag
it down from the proud eminence
which it has so long maintained
without rival Inscriptions par
tizanship, and blind party zeal have
led the most famous journal of the
world into excuses disgraceful to
journalism No newspaper can long
maintain a high and enviable repu-
tation unless its party zeal is tam
pered by a healthy independence.
The history of the Times Parnell
Commission Is lesson and warn
ing.

We have no idea of underestimate
ing the Importance of the treaty. 1t
has been the source of all our pros
perity, and the sudden abrogstion
of it would mean ruin, not merely to
a large number of the plantations,
but to many in every class of the
community. But the prosperity of
no country can be of a solid and en-
during kind, if the lsboring class, if
the great bulk of the population,
are source of danger or weakness,
instead of bulwark of safety. An
Intelligent agricultural class is the
surest basis on which the fabric of
national prosperity can be raised.
No permanent civilization of high
quality can exist without such class.
Its existence in the United States
is the chief source of the greatness
and security of the American Re
public. Without it, the institution
of the nation would have been
swamped under the tidal wave of
foreign immigration. 1t is the high
level of intelligence, honesty, sturdi-
ness, and energy of the agricul-
tursl classes throughout the
American Union, which has made
it possible for American insti
tutions to preserve their chsrac-
ter through a hundred years OF

What class is there in these ISL
ands to correspond to the agricultu-
raj classes in the United Statess
We have 1900 Chinese and several
thousand Japanese who do almost
the whole agricultural labor of the
Kingdom. The superiuous Chinese,
and they are counted by thousands,
flock to Honolulu, where some of
them crowd the mechanics to the
wall by the pressure OF their compe-
tition, while others are supported in
idleness and vagrancy by their
countrymen,to keep up the labor mar
ket. An agricultural class, under
standing and taking an interest in
the institutions of the country, does
not exist here. Its place is filled by
Asiatics, who are strangers to our
language, our religion, our society,
and all our habits. More than this
the class of intelligent mechanics
and small trades, a class small and
not yet firmly established. is further
imperilled as to its very existence.

Now. what is to be done to rene
dy a state of affairs which every one
must admit to be deplorablea What
has been done is good, but it does
not go far enough. The question
here involved is much wider than
the Chinese Question" wider at
last than any form which that
question has yet assumed 1t is the
immigration question-the question
of re-population- What has been
done, We repeat, is good, but it does
not go far enough. Restriction Acts
have been passed That was a nee
essary preliminary to any thorough
dealing with the problem. Laws
have been passed attaching penal
ties to vagrancy, and they would ia
cilitate the settlement of matters If
they could be Systematically en-
forced. Finally there is every pros
peet that we will have stat
utes, as soon as such Legislation Is
eonstitusionally possible, excluding
from mechanical employments all
Chinese not now engaged in them
This Legislation, including what We
expect to get as well as what We
have, Is all necessary in order to pre-
vent the present evil from assuming
any greater proportions But it goes
no further, and nothing more i

HIGHWAY REFORM.

Rhode Island, too, is moving IN the
direction of what is there very appro-
priately termed highway reform.
One OF the plans proposed is thus out
lined in the Providence journal 1.-The
State shall construct and maintain
such highways as are, by virtue OF
their location, means of communica-
ton for the whole commonwealth. The
towns, as such. shall construct and
maintain such other thoroughfares as
are in their nature local, seeing to it,
through the employment of a single,
competent agent, that the work is well
done, and uniformly, and in recogni-
ton of the common right of the whole
of the community in every portion OF
the public domain"
This is about what we have in YER
mont, the principle of State interest in
the main thoroughtares having been
recognized by the passage of the law
under which, aid has been extended
to New Haven and Ripton in the re-
pair of their roads. We are not up to
the idea of ''single competent agent
in each town, however, and that, or
the employment of one competent per-
son in county, viii perhaps be our
next step in advance. -Middlebury
Register.
