MOSES, which cover older trees, ETC.,
often serve very good purpose in CIV
ing shade and protection. However this
may be, VIC know that these scales also
afford hiding places for injurious in
sects, for their eggs and pupa. For this
reason orchardists, as rule, do not OBJ
ject to moderate combing or scraping
of trees, and the scraper here illustrated
appears to be a very desirable tool for
the purpose.
Every spring and fall the question
arises how to cut out and remove with

hook is kept sharp. With such firm
and comfortable hold on the tool one can
work for days without the least fatigue
and, if the hand is gloved, with perfect
comfort. The old wood after being cut
out of the hills may be left to decay
or taken out and burned, which is the
plan when spring pruning is practiced.
There will be little of it left next season.

EX-GOVERNOR ADAMS or Theo. Winters,
it is now said will be the Democratic nomi-
nee for Governor. II is our belief that Mr..
Adams will be the man, and we will say
right here that the Republicans of the Stale
will have 10 put up their most solid timber
to stand Adams of. lie is by far the shrewd-
est politician in the Democratic party, and
there ale but few Republicans who can lay
the wires any straighter. Besides being
politician OF the FIRST water Adams Is social
gentleman Of high standing and has hosts OF
friends in both parties The fight among
Republicans for this office seems TO be mar
rowing down to w oodburn and Coleord, with
the latter gentleman in the lead. Mr.. Col
cord is very little known to the people Of this
high terms Of his ability to ill the office to
which he aspires aud also TO make the trip.
Mr.. Woodburn is well known by all classes
OF people in this STATE and il he receives the
nomination will no doub, make a hustlns
fight. II was our impression four years ago,
after T. B. Hickey was pulled down from
going before the Convention, that ii would
be no more than fair to give him the nonua.
ton at this time. He could have had the
nomination four years ago by placing his
name before the Convention. He refused to
do this for reasons best known to himself. Il
Is now understood that he is out OF the fight,
but We think that the Republican party
could do no better than to select him tor the
Office. lie is gentleman OF high standing
In the State and is one OF the hardest and
best workers in the party. HIS interests in
Nevada are large and he has always been on
hand when called upon to aid any Industry
that would advance the State. Single handed
he has done as much Tor the Republican party
as aoy one man in il. and it would be no
more than right TO show him recognition. As
we have said before, il is our opinion tina,
MIR. Adams will be the Democratic nominee,
and il there is a man ia the Republican
ranks who can down him that man is T. b.
Hickey. lie may not be in it, but we think
he ought 10 be.

THrar is seemingly some difernce Of opin-

THERE is seemingly some differnce oil opin-
ion among newspapers and men as to how
the States expenses shall be reduced Some
weeks ago the TINES gave some figures
showing where in the neighborhood OF $50,
ooo could be saved yearly by simply reduc-
ing the salaries CT some Of the Stale Officers,
doing away with the Supreme Court and
lessening the number Of members IN the Leg
islature and cutting down the time from 90
TO 30 day sessions. As we have stated be-
fore, we do not believe that Nevada is in
need Of such great and sweeping reduction
of expenses Of running The State as many
think. The future looks brighter, as in all
probability il will be but short time before
water scheme will bring settlers to our
population OF the State.
In the economical move it has been sug-
gested that the number OF counties in the
State be reduced from ID TO 8. This, Of
course, would do away with just that many
county governments, and would, no doubt,
lessen the expenses 70 d certain extent. That
il would be as much cheaper to run the large
counties as some say it would, we doubt. II
would be some cheaper AT the present time,
but with an increase in the population il
would cost nearly as much, while it would
cost the people, individually, a great deal
more. This consolidation proposition APP
pears to suit few who would be considera-
is that it will not suit the people.
The doing away with the Supreme Court
will save the State SIS 900 year in single
lump and it will inconvenience no one but
few Judges who have been doing very little
for their money for the past many years.
There is not so much business to transact in
not do it all, by sitting en- 6ane as Supreme
Court whenever an appeal case was on hand.
The argument that it would not do to trust
important cases to men who might be elected
as District Judges amounts TO nothing. The
Supreme Judges could be elected 10 the Of.
flee Of District Judge, and everybody seems
to be well satisfied that we have good Su-
preme Court now, while it is conceded by
nearly everybody that the men who have been
elected to the District Judgcship have been
.eminently fitted to fill the position. The
records will show this, we think, by the fact
that the appeal cases have nearly always
been sustained. To make these changes,
we believe that it will COS, less and be done
Constitutional Convention than by .Legisla-
tive amendments.

tated small nation proud of its colo
NAL history. He also inquired the mean
ing OF Gen. Summons mission to the
pope and demanded to know why no
mention was made in the queens speech
OF the special Parnell commission. Lord
Salisbury defended the mission of SIM
mons to the Vatican as necessary in Or
DER to arrange open questions relating
TO the status OF Catholics in Malta.
Concerning the Portuguese dispatches,
he said, the lords would find when the
papers were read that Portugal
HAD BEEN FREQUENTLY WARNED
that it was impossible for England to
accepther claims upon territory or tribes
already under British protection, or to
permit Portuguese settlement in the
Shire district or Nyassaland. Moreover.
Portugal had been given to understand
that Englend could not allow natives
within the British protectOrate to be
raided with impunity. The govern
ment believed that the exercise of de-
clslye diplomatic pressure was the very
best course TO take in the ultimate in
terests OF Portugal and of humanity.
He referred to the greatly decreased
crime In ireland, and predicted that if
Just and firm government of that
country were continued, harmony and
good will would grow to be fast-rooted
among the people, despite the genera
tions of discord. The Parnellite mem
bers of the house of commons met this
evening and elected Mr.. Parnell chair
man. Resolutions were unanimously
passed expressing full confidence in
MIR. Parnell, and hope that the present
session of parliament would bring
nearer the legislative independence of
Ireland.

Speaking of the Mormon idea of rule by

they believed it has no power to
punish any one by depriving
him of life. liberty, property.
or personal injury in any form. That
governments should not regulate the
church, nor the church seek to control
the state; that all men should be politi-
eally free and equal. He said he does
not feel gloomy as to the ultimate re-
suit of the election. He believes that
the taxes will be raised: that there will
be such looSeneSs of restraint imposed
upon immortality and such striking
contrast under the liberal rule from the
peoples regime that, as in Ogden, more
respectable people Of all classes will
soon desire the return to former

LISBON, Feb. 11.-An enormous crowd
assembled to-day in the Place Dom
Pedro, and Republican orators endeav-
ored to harIangue various groups, but
the police and cavalry charged the mass,
which was dispersed after some fight
ing. Twenty-eight persons were ar
rested. The additions that the govern
ment intends to make to the Portuguese
navy will include four cruisers
and four gunboats. The government
will send floating Cry dock to st.
Paul de Loando and another to Mozam-
bique. 1t is month to-day since the
English ultimatum was presented to
the Portuguese government and since
PORTUGAL Immediately accepted it. The
demonstration planned was intended as
celebration of the desperate objection

stratlOn. The shops are partially closed
and the streets are patr0lled by cavalry.
Agitation, smothered for the moment,
is smoldering. The municipal guards
of both Lisbon and Oporto are to be in
creased and reorganized.

ATROCITIES IN SIBERIA.
Female Prisoners Choose Suicide
Rather Than Dishonor.

PARIS, Feb. ia cipher letter has
just been received by q Russian refugee
in this city, dated Dee. %, which gives
the details of horrible tragedy in the
political prison at Kara, Eastern Siberia.
Nine. Nadyda Sihida. of noble birth,
and teacher in the high school at Mos
cow, was found last year with reyolu-
tionary pamphlets in her possession and
sentenced to penal servitude. On her
arrival at Kara, this handsome. refined
woman soon attracted the attention of
the director Of the prison, who
took an early opportunity to in
suit her. Nine. Sihida boxed the
ears of the director, who, in
revenge. had her stripped and flogged
in the presence of all the men in the
prison. Such an outrage has not been
perpetrated on woman of rank since
the days of the Empress Catherine, and
the unfortunate lady was so apprehen-
sive of further shame and torture that
she committed suicide on the same day
by poisoning herself. Several of the
other female political prisoners, fear
full of receiving similar treat
ment, on hearing OF the terrible
event, followed her example. A few
miles from the women's political prison
at Kara is that occupied by male pollti-

VLADIMIR Is SUSPENDED.
The Gar Squelches the Russian
Rishon Of San Francisco.


ST.. PETERSBURG, Feb. 1.-THE Rus
sian bishop Y Iadimir, at San Francisco,
will be recalled. He will be succeeded
by the archimandrite of st. Peters
burg.
GROSS INEQUALITIES CHARGED.
SAN FRANCISCO, Feb. 11.-Three
Russians were on guard tonight before
the Greek-Russian church watching the
movements of Bishop Vladimir, and
from them was learned the following;
DIR. Nicholas Russell yesterday swore
out a warrant for the arrest of the
bishop, charging him with irregularities
in regard to the church funds and other
clerical matters. But hearing at IL p.
N. that the bishop had received a tele-
gram from st. Petersburg suspending
him from his duties for one year pend
ing the investigation Of charges of gross
immoral character which have been pre-
ferred against him by members of this
church flock, the doctor decided not to
serve the papers to-day. But under
standing that the bishop has withdrawn
his own and the church moneys from
the bank, he believed that he contem-
plated flight. Consequently he placed
the three men to watch the movements
of the prelate.
DIR. Russell was interviewed relative
to the matter, and while he acknowl-
edged having placed the detectives on
guard becaue he fancied Vladimir
might try to steal away in the night, he
would not talk further about the affair.
but said the whole matter was in the
hands of his attorney, E. L. Campbell.
Nicholas Kutcheroia, one of the Rus
slams on guard, said that the bishop was
a ruined man officially, Charges have
been made against him accusing him of
gross misconduct in his church affairs.
The Russians dislike him because he is
dishonest and untruthtul and calls
them 'nihilists." and only few Sclaves
and Greeks are friendly to him.
