Although the prospect for an abun.
dant crop of fall apples is excellent,
reports from New England regarding
winter apples are not so encouraging.
To the casual observer, however, the
orchards look promising, and there is
at least the possibility that the growers
OF apples have taken their cue from the
peach men and are inclined to be bear
ish without good reason. Lovers of
apples had such hard time last win
ter and had to pay such high prices for
poor fruit that they cannot but hope
for plenty of apples of all good varie-
ties this year

posed to move the sepulchre intact

The reported agreement between France and
Russia has been expected ever since the re-
nesal Of the triple alliance. Indeed. it was
said long ago that the two governments under
stood each others course 50 we'll to he to act in
unison in international complications that q
formal but recent treaty had either been
actually entered upon or was unnecessary. II
Is very certain that the action of the other
great powers viii force these nations to perfect
concert If one does notexist already. The con-
fsrepee between the two foreign secretaries
which, IL IL said, Is to take place soon in
Switzerland may determine some questions not
heretofore agreed upon. II is probable that
that conference will relate more directly to
commercial than political matters, as the recent
treaties formed or proposed as the result of the
dreibund affect seriously the commercial in
terssts Of both powers OF course their politi-
cal importance in Europe is involved in the
matter. is also the question Of war or peace
a question possessing significance to the people
Of the United States and the entire civilized

The Baltimore and Ohio railroad made itsel

coal, and thereby relieving the train of the sooty

For some reason the company has now re-
turned to the use Of soft coal on this line. Thi.

themselves to the front in public favor by
relieving passengers Of the smoke nuisance on
their New York line. and they should have also
made a similar reform on their other lines,

The claims Of Washington As the convention
city are conceded generally Only the political
managers remain to be convinced VI Its mani
fold aud imposing advantages As proof. II
any were needed of this statement the recent
great medical and other assemblies and the sci
estiic bodies 10 meet here soon would be suff-
eient As a matter Of fact Washington has been
fog many years the rsllying place more and
more % civil and military organizations, as 1t
has been the Mecca Of the intelligent traveller
and the resort Of the individual seeking recrea-
non. There are reasons abundant why this is
%. il II were necessary to state them all or in
greater part One of these is tho fact that
Washington is the working headquarters of a
government where the moral. intellectual and
political forces of powerful nation IRE CEN
tered for action legislatively, executively and
judicially. As the power Of the people has
grown in al directions the greatness OF the
government the people have set up and sustain
has increased The distribution Of the powers
Of the federal government has resulted in scat
ing in the city of Washington a vast and varied
network of departments, bureaus, offices neces-
nary to carry on with efficiency the gigantic
machinery Of popular rule over a large part of
the continent. But this is not all; its nearness
to grand historical scenes beautiful situation
ON ono of the finest Of American rivers. its easy
communications, its delightful climate due to
its location midway between the north and the
south are other strong Inducements These
shoaid De as potent with the national executive
committees in deciding upon a place for the
holding of the respective party conventions as
with others. The busaboo of administration
influence is not worth moments considera-
ton. The want Of a suitable hall has been the
only drawback, but this want viii be supplied
before the conventions of 's2 are held The
matter of providing ample hall room for great
national gatherings is now receiving close at
sention from citizens interested in the city's
progress, and it is quite certain that the build
ing needed will be supplied
