London Grog Shops.

London has 1925 miles of streets and
a population of :, S47, 000-more than the
whole of Scotland or of Ireland. 1t has
only 439 church buildings. 1t has
about $500 people to the square mile;
145, 900 paupers, one-third of whom are
children. London has over sc, 900 reg
istered, habitual criminals. There are
over $4,000 policemen, which cost the
city over s. 600 900 year. London has
also $4,000 grogshops. How much these
cost nobody can figure up. Never will
there be any way out of darkest Lon
don, or the bottomless miseries and
degradation of any other city, so long
as the grogshop curse is tolerated.-Ad

Weaver An Virginia.

General Weaver and his wife
and Mrs. Leese, the lady orator, Of
Kansas, arrived in Virginia City
Thursday forenoon. That evening
the Gen. and Mrs. Lease addressed
the largest audience that ever was
in Piper's Opera House. The hall
was perfectly jammed, and hund
reds were unable to getin. Carson
and Reno sent good delegation up
and the Dayton and Silver City
Silver Leagues were there over a
hundred strong. In this town the
business houses and saloons closed
and everybody went to hear and
see the man who they all; hope
will be the next. President of the
United States. =. ~
Mr.. Weaver is nearly sixty years
of age, and is pleasant appearing
gentleman, well preserved for his
age, and his talk, besides being en-
tertaining, was the most sound and
logical that has been delivered in
this State at any time. His expla-
nation Of the financial state of af-
fairs in this country was clear, and
no one who heard it doubted the
assertions, rs they were backed by
statistics compiled by the agents Of
those who are directly opposed to
the best interests of this country
The rounds of applause that greet
ed the speaker were deafening and
it was plain to be seen that the
speakers arguments had great effect
on the audience. Mr.. Weaver end
ed by throwing down the gauntlet
to the gold bugs in forcible language
Mrs. Leese then spoke for an hour
or more. She is a very pleasant
talker, and probably the finest elo'
cutionist in the United States. She
is known as the kansas Cyclone,
and her talk is logical and convinc'
ing. She received hearty rounds o.
applause, and has gained for the
Peoples Party candidate many
votes in Nevada. The speaking
closed with three cheers for Weaver
and Field and the lady orator.

The woody Aphis of the Apple.

The Nevada Agricultural Exper-
iment Station is about to issue its
bulletin, No. II, which treats in.
popular Language. Fl the woolly lice
which infest the bark and roots of
the apple tree.
This is a seasonable bulletin in
lsmuch that it appears at a time
when the insects are abundant; and
in consequence when there is gen.
eral demand for information regard
ing them. The bulletin is not
lengthy, contains several illustra.
tions representing the pests and
some of their insect enemies, and
enumerates remedies which if prop
erly applied, will serve to keep the
insects within seriously injurious
numbers.
The aim of the bulletin is to ex-
plain the nature of the insects and
snch remedies as will control them
with little expense.
The woolly Aphids are provided
with slender sucking beaks and
with which they pierce the tender
est bark of the tree, and withdraw
the nourishing sap from those parts
which need it most. In limited
numbers these lice could do little
or no harm, but when they appear
in countless myriads, the truth Of
there being strength in numbers
soon becomes apparent.
The sap drawn from the roots
causes the tree to become sickly and
| finally die without apparent cause
This has been termed the "Ameri.
can Blight"
The attack upon the roots is the
most injurious to the tree as it is
apt to become far advanced before
the nature of the disease is known
and because the application of The
remedies is more difficult in cases
of this form than in that of those
affecting the bark.
Remedies for the bark form arr
found in the useof kerosine emul
sion, tobacco decoction, and carboli'
soap suds.
The best remedy for the root form
is bi-sulphide of carbon the fume
of which penetrate the soil abou
the roots and kill the insects will
which they come in contact.
This bulletin may be had by an,
one wishing it on application to tn

To Mr.. D. G. Bridges: Don't.

ALL cattle coming from the south and
consigned to other states than Wyoming
should be sent through by rail. The state
loses much and gains nothing by their
passage. This should be made partlcu-
larry applicable to sheep which, to save
railway tolls, are driven across Wyoming
from Utah into Nebraska. They denude.
and in some instances destroy, the ranges
thus iuficting much loss upon men who
contribute heavily IN taxes to the support
OF state and county governments. This
latter nuisance particularly should be
abated and that without or
waste of time.
