Democracy Of that State in 1892. and which re-
suited in the election of Democratic Senator,
has been condemned in the recent election by
nearly 100000 majority.
Mr. Till-The Senator has not answered the
question Had the election in New-YOrk any
thing to do with the question of the tariff?
Mr. CuIlom-It had nothing to do with the
tariff except that the Democratic party. In us
National Convention and ever since, has been
claiming that il intends 10 carry out It's free
trade policy; and that has alarmed the people
and helped to give a majority In favor OF the
Republican party and against the Democracy
Mr. Hill-The question of tariff was only very
remotely involved in the recent election in New
York. In the election of 1892 the state or New.
York gave a majority OF nearly $4,000 for tariff
reform, and that on full vote too
Mr.. Cullom-In the last election there was
very large majority against the Democracy and

the friend of the honorable Senator from New
York
was advised by Mr.. Hill not to lie awake at
night from any anxiety as to whether the Demo-
cratic party proposed to carry out its platform
on the question Of tariff. II can assure the
senator" Mr. Hill continued. that the party
does intend to carry it out faithfully. honestly
and mpartially.'
THE PRESIDENTS IIAw MAN POLICY.
After some further coloquy. in which Mr.. Hill
said that he had been and was the friend OF
Judge Maynard, Mr.. Cuom went on with MS
speech What else than terror and despair,
he asked could be expected, judging by the
policy which could with one hand wantonly
crush American industry and shpwreck the in,
terwoven interests Of American capital ana
American labor. while with the other hand IL
tore down the American ensign whch nad

DISTRIBUTING THE LADvBIRDs

Mr.. Rllwood Cooper Mailing Colonies to
Applicants.
The distribution of colonies of rhizo-
bius ventralis, or black lady birds, is
now going on from Mr.. Ellwood Cnop-
er's place at Ellwood. They are ex-
pected to very speedily get away with
the black scale pest, which has become
so widespread.
Mr.. Il. J. Griffith of this city yeeter-
day received colonies OF the ladybrd for
which ne applied. Accompanying the
package was letter from Mr.. Cooper,
the substance of which will prove OF in
terest. 1t is as follows:
81 send you by mail two packages
containing two colonies Of ladybirds
(rhizobius ventralis). A few of these
beetles, probably not more than ten
perfect pairs, were placed in olive or
chards badly infected with black scale
(lacanium oleae), on May ,l5. 1892 They
have increased to many millions, and it
is pfesumabIe that they feed upon eaid
scales. A colony taken from the or
chards and placed in an orchard in San
Jose, on July 3lst. last. had on August
30th produced half grown larvae. These
facts seem to encourage the belief that
their increase will be very rapid, and
that in short time the black scale will
disappear to that extent that our fruit
crops will be saved from the rsvages Of
thin pest.
You will place the colony all on one
tree, selecting one that is bushy and
where there is plenty of shade and
plenty of scales. These beetles are cent
you with the UNDERSTANDING that no
spraying or fumigating will be done in
the orchard where placed, at least not
within ten trees on every eide OF the one
selected for the colony. You will report
to the &C cretary OF the state board of
horticulture. 220 Sutter street, San

THE cHEvALIER DE KoNTsK'.

HIS Musical Poem Entitled The Awak-
ening of Poland.
When in 1848 the general revolution
had spread ell over Europe, the Cheva-
lier de Kontski thought that perhaps at
this occasion the independence OF the
kingdom of Poland would be pro-
claimed. Penetrated with this patri-
otic feeling he composed a musical poem
entitled, The Awakening OF Poland.
In the first introduction the trumpet
signals show that Poland has always
been the nation of warriors. ready to
shed the last drop of blood for the be-
loved country. In the following ''an-
dante" he expresses the suffering, the
struggle of the oppressed people, their
liberty, their religion, their native
tongue, all, is taken away by the three
oppressors thousands and thousands
were eent to Siberia.
In the last part of the work the drums
and guns and cannons are heard, The
battle begins, growing more and more
intense, and finally the victory oil the
Polish army proclaims the independ-
ence OF their nationality.
De Kontski was obliged to change the
title, as no publisher was daring enough
to issue the composition under its first
name
