THE COMMITTEES NEEDS.

II II is expected that the subsidy COM
mittee shall discharge its responsible
and, In some respects, ungrateful task
so as to produce the earliest and best
results, II must have the moral and
reasonable financial support of every
business man and property owner in the
community. That the committee has
displayed unusual energy, and that 1t Is
composed Of competent and thoroughly
earnest men, Is amply evidenced by the
magnificent subsidy they have raised,
and the fact that they have now before
them for consideration the offer Of a.
syndicate Of capitalists with ample
means and ability to build the road.
There Is such disposition among
men in the case Of every public enter
prise where u committee or agent
has been especially appointed, for
particular object, to shoulder
all the responsibility and work upon
such agent and committee and then
stand back and wait for developments
or results, that II often happens in|
particular emergencies such committee
or agent Is Obliged to assume response
blllties and obligations not contemplate

which the general public have nc
knowledge or conception. So In the CASE
OF the railroad committee. These gen
tlemen have performed labor and given
time to work which It was necessary toI
do In order to bring about the present
good showing, that no one but them
selves has any knowledge OF, and not
only have they given OF their time, tall

inally expected Of them, but they havcl
been Obliged to go down in their pock-
cts and repeatedly produce their own

tails Of the schemes on hand; and II Is

which they have thus raised and APP
piled there are accounts due and out.

There may be a difference of opinion
as to whether the proposition for the
railroad submitted by Mr.. Lutz and his
associates can or cannot be accepted by
the subsidy committee, but 1t should
tend greatly to Astoria's encouragement
that in times like the present any set
of men can be found who, upon any
kind of inducement, can be got to think
seriously of investing money in a new
railroad enterprise. The responsibility
resting upon the committee is great and
onerous and they are liable to become
the subject of much adverse criticism
whatever they may do, and 1t is doubt
full If the general public have any ade-
duate realization of the difficulties and
embarrassments which beset them. 1T
is plain to anyone that If railroad Isl
to be built at all, Astoria's good de-
mands that 1t shall be done with the
least possible delay, and the PROPOSE
ton now before the committee may
be viewed from two different stand
points. The mere fact, as has been said
before, that money Is forthcoming I'M
the present financial stringency to build
the road goes to prove that there is
something In the situation Of the city
and its future prospects worthy of the
attention of the most conservative in
clined capitalists and 1t may be only a.
question with any one Of the several
syndlcates now figuring on the work
how much the citizens of Astoria and
vicinity can be induced to contribute in
aid of the scheme. In that aspect of
the case, they may all be only playing
the people for larger bonus than will
suffice to settle the question, with the
underlying intention all the time toI
commence the real work just as soon
as It Is determined what the utmost
limit OF the peoples ability or willing
ness to give may be. On the other hand,
II Is thought by many that the Dwyer
represents the only real capt.
tallsts now concerned with the subject.
and that some of the other syndicatesI
heretofore prominent in this connection
are only jobbers and volunteer specu>
lators Interested for what they can
realize as middle men, and that they
have been here merely to get the best
offer possible from the local interests,
to be hawked about until some deal
at some time in the more or less remote
future can be made with men Of
means on good margin to them
selves. In this latter view II would he
\ great blunder II the committee failed
10 make some sort Of bargain with the
Dwyer syndicate on the most feasible
erms 1t may be said that while the
lmount of bonus demanded seems large.
t should be bourne in mind that with
he building OF the road the gains to all
'lasses Of property holders win make
he present sacrifice seem inconsidera-
,le, and II the road is not built the
ubsidy rendered will revert TO the
lcnors and they can stin hold It for
whatever It is actually worth.

UrAHs FRUIT PESTS.

The insect pest in fruit trees will re-
quire more systematic means to eradi-
cate than merely sprinkling them with
a disinfectant. The conditions favor
able to insect growth are shade, heat
and moisture, and in many of our or
chards and yards the fruit trees are
planted so close together and allowed
to go without pruning until they present
a tangled growth of branch, twig and
folia gre, and density of shade that in hot
weather is exactly adapted to the incu-
baton Of insect life. People in planting
seem to forget that apple, pear and
plum trees will require a diameter of
forty feet when they reach maturity, if
each is to receive the quantity of sun
light required for a healthy develop
ment of fruit and tree, while it is COM
mon to see them as close together as II
feet, and rarely to exceed twenty feet
apart.
Sunlight is the most energetic de-
'stroyer Of embryo life in nature, and
the eggs or larvae of tree insects will
not often survive exposure to the sun.
1t is the dense shades, combined with
summer heat that matches every egg
left by the mother moth.
Observation also shows another fruit
full cause in the propagation of this
pest. The ground beneath the trees will
usually be fround strewn with the fruit
dropped through the ravages of insects
Every one of these apples, pears or
plums either contains a store of eggs
or, embryo caterpillars or worms, and if
not destroyed will breed myriads of
moth that deposit their eggs in the bud
of the embryo fruit.
Spraying the trees is only a palliative
and mainly useful in connection with
more natural and systematic treatment
In the country, to make the or
chards range for pigs and chickens,
is the most efficient means of destruc-
ton Of fruit already stung, and by wide
planting and liberal pruning the natural
nesting places of the pests will be de-
stroyed, and such eggs as may be de-
posted in the young fruit rendered I'M
fertile. In town every bit of fallen fruit
should be picked up from the ground
and destroyed.
The losses to Utah through this pest
in quantity alone amount to MANY
thousands of dollars every year, while
the quality Of the fruit is so deteriora-
ted from mere want of sunlight that
even such fruit as may escape the in
sect pest is only half developed. AT one
time the famous apple orchards of New
York and Michigan were rendered I'M
productive through insect pests and the
same careless Mo nti,o n "a ,,,,,,,,;,.-x -
they have gradually been rescued by
bringing in their natural enemies-the
sun, and the pigs and poultry.

THE COPPER PLANT BONDS.

1t seems that the committee having
in charge the bonds known as the
copper plant bonds are determined to
lsell them. They not only ignore the
public sentiment on the question but
they also ignore the mayor. It is far
from certain that they are not ignor-
ing the law. If a little learning is a
dangerous thing, a little authority
would appear in this case to be even
more dangerous
What the public would like the gen.
tlemen of the committee to explain is
the great haste to dispose of the bonds.
Tell the public what the need is for
this great haste to sell these bonds.
1t seems to be so great as to be in
decent. Is it feared that some indig-
nant taxpayer will invoke the power
of the courts to prevent the sale of
the bonds and the dissipation of pub
lie funds?
Perhaps it will be said that the city
is morally bound to hand these bonds
over to the copper plant company.
Surprising it is. The bonus was to be
paid when the company had expended
certain amount of money and had
completed the works. This amount of
money has not been expended and the
works are not completed. The COM
pany has asked four months grace,
which has been granted. Why not de-
lay the sale of the bonds for the same
period?
We have no imputations to cast up
on the gentlemen composing the COM
mittee. and have not questioned their
motives. but it is we'll for them to I'M
derstand that there is very grave
suspicion in the minds of the people
that all is not as it should be with
the copper plant, that somewhere
there is niger in the wood pile .
Let few more committees have their
own sweet will in the management, or
rather Encouragement, of the city's
affairs. and the city will be plunged
into a Serbonian bog of debt
If these bonds are sold and the sale
shall be illegal, tie members of the
committee should be made to respond
in damages, and if their action comes
within the criminal code they should
be punished. Mayor Baskin's attitude
on this question has been the proper
one all the time, and the people look
to him to take such action as will pre-
vent the consumation of this contem-
plated wrong. Andrew Jackson and
the United States bank is a good pre-
cedent.

RAILWAY EMPLOYEES FOLLY.

The strike is over. Pullmans en-
ployees have not gone to work and la
Dor has not triumphed in it's attack
on capital. Considering the method
labor took to enforce its claims, it is
right that it did not secceed. Condem-
nation of the strike and the wanton
destruction of property consequent
thereon. and the loss of life also, does
not carry with it a condemnation of
the efforts of the workingmen to bet
ter their condition, and to give their
sympathy and aid to fellow working
men struggling to raise themselves.
What did the railway employees do +?
Ostensibly they struck out of sympa-
thy for Pullman's workmen. 1t is
doubtful if twenty per cent knew what
Pullman and his employees had dis
agreed about. They thought they were
giving aid to labor when in fact they
were giving aid and encouragement to
rioting that was disturbing the bust
ness of the whole country 1t is we'll
in reviewing strike matters to be
plain. The railway men exercised no
more thought or freedom Of action
than band of sheep that is rounded
up by the shepherds collie
And what is the consequence of all
this? Labor organizations have been
discredited as never before. Thou
sands Of handwriting men have been
thrown out of employment and the stig-
ma that they sought to cast upon the
non-union men who took their places
rests upon them. All this is the natu-
raj result of their own actions. Those
of the strikers who broke the laws
should be punished. But not the 9TH
ers. Nor should these others be treat
ed as outcasts. Rather, they should
be given encouragement and work, and
it may safely be left to them to see the
folly of their course and to draw the
moral from it. Let the men who
have taken the strikers places profit
by their example
