EDIToR SPOKANE REVIEW:
As there have appeared in recent issues
Of your very valuable paper articles at
tacking the position taken by Colfax In
regard to the location Of the agricultural
college, we ask, in all fairness, for little
space in which to present our side Of the
question.
II has been openly charged, through
the press, and 1t is generally believed,
that the location Of the agricultural col.
lege was made through fraud and corrup-
ton. We have reason to believe 1t was
located by the acting governor In collu-
sion with two Of the commissioners before
they left Olympia, end that their junket-
ing trip over the state was but pretense
and that no place entitled to the institu-
ton under the act received an honest
consideration at their hands.
This 10 why we protest against any &C.
ton Of the board Of regents, and will
protest until the courts shall have decided
that the locating board acted honestly
and legally, or until the cloud Of corrup-
tion that now hangs over It shall have
been cleared away. Pullman can not be
injured II her skirts are clear. Why
should she fear the truth?
Shall II stand that an institution Of
learning, which belongs to the whole
state for all time to come, shall be black
ened by the charge Of corruption in its
incipiency? We verify believe that every
good and honorable citizen Of this state
will answer with US, No! They will say
with one united voice: "If there be any
taint Of fraud, let IL be unaarthed and the
guilty parties punished to the full extent
Of the law"
This is the position Coliax has taken.
and she is not ashamed Of ii. Therefore
Il was unnecessary for any Of Pullman's
citizens to pry into the secrets Of the
Western Union, for not one Of the signers
Of the dispatches which have been
published would have denied il. By the
way, II the people Of Pullman have lit
eral copies Of those dispatches, as they
claim, how did they get them? They
could have obtained them only by dis
honorable means, the same as We believe
they employed in obtaining the college,
and know that they avoided helping to
pay the legitimate expenses of the Droa-

great expense.
The hop vine aphis Is a European pest,
which was first observed in 1862 in the
United States. For Q long time il has
been allowed TO work its ravages in this
country in years Of Its abundance with.
out effort made against It. Quite differ
ent has been the course pursued in Eng
land, where no hop grower presumes to
grow q crop without his regular "hop
washings."
-Four years ago the life history Of the
insect was for the first time worked out
in the hop yards Of New York by the en-.
tomoIogical division at Washington. With
this knowledge at our command, il is safe
to say that with proper care, and without
great expense, our hop crop can be saved
from aphis destruction.
The insect, deserting the hop yards in
the autumn, passes to plum trees, on the
smaller twigs Of which its eggs are laid
and survive the winter. Matching in the
early spring, three broods are developed
on the plum, the third brood being
winged. This brood at once takes wing,
deserts the plum tree, and flies to the hop
yards. This flight takes place in May

tons against them. They should be killed,
and thereby prevent the enormous pro-
geny to which they would give rise In the
nine rapidly succeeding generations on
the hop plants. This multiplication, in
favorable seasons, is simply appalling,
almost incredible, but II need not be per
mitted.
It may be prevented by killing the plum

rows Of the yards.
The best insecticide for use is believed
to be kerosene emulsion, prepared after

agricultural journals.
This emulsion Is made from this form.

Intentionally, carried off the Judges bat.

bring the matter before the grand jury if
the hat was not returned during the dav.
The judge remarked: This thing OF
taking the best hat in sight is getting too

must treat strangers with more considera-
