Land that has grown much clover
seed is not good for a strawberry
patch. 1t ia good for almost any
other farm crop for which clover is
either harmless or a valuable manure.
But among strawberries clover is one
of the worst of weeds, and for this
reason it Is not best to SOW gypsum or
land plaster on the strawberry patch
lest it cause too great an intrusion of
clover.

No effective method of fighting rose
bugs has been found except hand-pick-
ing. Arsenical poisons, kerosene emul-

usual insecticides have proved power
less against this sturdy pest, which de
fes everything except actual capture by
hand.

The powdered hellebore used for
destroying the currant worm is less
virulent poison than Paris green. In
the small amounts needed to effect a
clearing of these pests there is less dam
ger from careless handling than there
Is from any mineral poison.

When a man says there is no use In

STEWART STREET SCRIP.
Explanation by MT. Bagley of the Iss'
in COntesr.


C. B. Bsgley called yesterday in regard to the
mention in these columns of the attempt of C.
NJ. Austin to compel the delivery of some street
grade warrants. Mr. Bagley said: 81 am not in
the habit of carrying private business affairs
into the newspapers, but this suit has been
twice mentioned in the PosT -INTELLIGENcER. I
desire to say few words about it. ]. NJ. Quigley
was the contractor for the grading of Stewart
street, and during the last few months the
North End bank has furnished the funds to
carry on the work. Mr.. Alden was a sub-con-
tractor on part of the street, and has failed to
pay amounts due his men and for supplies con-
nected with the work, aggregating large sum.
On April Is Mr.. Alden gave Mr.. Austin an order
on the city comptroller for $1,000 of the scrip to
be issued on the Stewart street fund. for which
ii is alleged that Alden received 81 1875. During
the intervening two months, forty or fifty labor
ers and teamsters have earned the money repre-
scented by these contested warrants, and the
question at issue is, whether they shall get their
pay or whether Mr. Austin shall get the money,
and deprive them of their hard-earned wages.
The contract on Stewart street has practically
bankrurted Mr.. Quigley and Mr.. Alden, and if
Mr.. Austin gets these warrants the laborers will
not get IL cir pay
81 have no pecuniary interest in the matter
but was selected by Messrs. Quigley and Alden
as trustee to draw the warrants, cash them and
nav off the men"

It's Aid Asked by the Churches in the
SUNDAY Movement.

The meeting of the Western Central Labor
Union last night was devoted mostly to a con-
sideration of the trouble at the mining camps,
but as the matter was discussed in executive
session none of the proceedings were made
public, beyond the fact that the question was
referred to the committee on resolutions, to
report suitable recommendations to the execu-
tive committee within day or so. The general
feeling of the delegates seemed to be that both
sides at Franklin should have been disarmed
long ago by the civil authorities and the fatal
conflict thus made impossible.
Resolutions were adopted disappearing of the
course of Colonel Haines in acting as COM
mander of militia while being also attorney for
the Oregon Improvement Company. and pledg
ing the labor organizations not to join in the
parade IL he were to participate.
The union Endorsed the "home industry label"
adopted by the Cigar Manufacturers Protective
Association short time ago. The label is to be
placed on all cigar boxes the contents OF which
have been made in Seattle.
Rev. Benjamin Parsons and Rev. A. l.
Koeneke were admitted to present request
from Ministerial Association that the Western
Central Labor Union aid in an effort to compel
the saloons to close on sunday. The matter was
referred to the committee on resolutions

DEMOCRATIC PLAN OF CAMPAIGN.
Chairman Brice Urges Organization of
Clubs and Concerted Action.

Clubs and Concerted Action.
NEW YORK, July 1.-Senator Brice, chairman
of the national Democratic committee has
written a letter of warning and advice TO his
fellow members of the national committee The
latter embodies advice with regard to the for
nation OF Democratic clubs and the necessity
OF the national committee cooperating with
them The senator begins with the statement
that the presidential contest Is near at hand
that the Republicans are rapidly preparing for il
and that the Democrats cannot be too circum-
spect or too swift in arranging to meet them.
The plan of campaign of the Republicans he
says, is a colossal system of clubs to be main
tanned and supported by unlimited means from
the pockets OF the benefciaries of the monopoly
policy. This system, he urges, can only be
met by an equally extensive system of
voluntary Democratic clubs-that is, associa-
tons OF people in their several neighborhoods
for the defense of their rights and interests
against those banded TO assault them. He
thinks tina approaching struggle TO be mainly
between the clubs, and IL IL greatly to be desired
that a uniform and perfect system Of Democratic
societies. thoroughly organized and in intimate
association.with each other. shall be established
before tho beginning Of next year He says he
has examined the plan % organization now in
process OF successful sct0rap4 isareas by the
National Association Of Democrscis Clubs. and
he feels it to be tAs sssy Of svsry msmber
OF the national executive eeTsns5stee 20 give the
club association his most hearty sapeor., and
he urges each member Of tas national commit
tee to cooperate with the association 70 their
fullest extent The work undertaken BY the ex.
ecutive committee of ths clubs il absolutely
necessary to be done, in Brice's opinion, and in
his letter he states that the opportunity is now
presented of having 1t accomplished efficiently
at a minimum cost, and then distributed over
so many localities as to not be burden to any
one committee Brice concludes his ia,.n- :.
follows:
The important feature of the plan is the seec.
ton OF correspondents in several states Thi,
now requires urgent attention in your state I
would therefore ask you to confer with the
chairman of your state committee as soon ss
may be convenient, and arrange this psrticniar
part o! the plan, so that you will do all in yonr

company to appear In their famous mirth-pro-
voking farce-comedy, entitled Nerves." Mr..
Frohman has accordingly agreed to let Seattle
see how his company can render fsrce-comedy.
In this play laughter Is the key note, and shouts
OF laughter greet the comic diversions OF the in
genious plot contained in "Nerves." Mr.. Kelley
and Miss Cayvan have both very funny roles.

immensely amusing. Miss shannon, as . nervous
young wife, Mrs. Whiffen as her nervous
mother, and Miss Logan as = nervous servant,
are members of q household which drive the
men in the family almost to distraction. Mr..
walcot, as victim of "nerves," has role very
consoling to the experience of those similarly
afflicted Mr.. Fritz Williams has also comic
role which made q great hit in New York.
'sNerves' win be given only on Saturday night

Popularity of .Taken From Life"

The continued popularity of "Takeu From
Life" at Cordray's bears testimony to the worth
of the play and its admirable rendition by the
Cordray company. Yesterdays matinee aud
evening performances were largely attended
and the same manifestations OF pleasure which
greeted the efforts of the performers on previous
nights were again repeated.
Miss Lane is strong in her delineation OF Kate
DENLY. and she and Mr.. Clement, who appears
in the character of Walter Dee, monopolize most
attention. There is an excellent piece of light
comedy acting between Miss Margaret Marshall
and Mr.. D. Elmer in the final act which shows
them to be possessed of considerable versatility in
dramatic art. Mr.. ]. r. Bronson, a. Joe the
stable man, gives fine exhibition OF character
work, and deserves kindly mention for his
painstaking study and preparation of all the
parts in which he appears. Miss Louise Kellogg
is scoring success in the character of Mary Ma

James Street Cable out of Gear.

The James street cable was stopped at 2:25
O'clock yesterday afternoon and remained in
active for fully half hour. The delay was
caused by the relaxation pulley slipping out of
its groove in the large wheel. No damage to
any part of the machinery occurred. The en-
CINE was started as soon as the pulley could be
put back in place. The primary cause lay in an
experiment to see If one engine was sufficient
to run the Rainier branch line in connection
with the main line on James street. The addi-
tional weight caused sudden tension which
threw the rome out of its place
