Largest and Best Apple Crop for Many


Seasons.
Chicago, Aug. l: At the an
nual meeting of the National
Apple Shippers association, with
delegates present representing all
the apple growing states from
Maine to Colorado, today it was
announced that the July report of
the department of agriculture in
dicatiug short apple crop is en-
tirely incorrect and misleading.
Local information in their possess
sion shows that in New England
the crop is one Of reasonable pro-
portions, and in New York, while
light in some districts, the aggre-
gate exceeds last year both in
quantity and quality. West of
the Alleghany mountains the
crop is declared the largest grown
in any recent year, and much
larger and better in quality than
that of last year, the only excep-
ton being in limited districts in
Ohio and Michigan and in Wis
consin and Minnesota. Those in
attendance at the meeting unite
in declaring the outlook to be for
the largest aggregate crop and
the best quality in recent years

the latter may know what they

4 MATTER OF HISTORY

4 MATTER OF HISTORY.
Chicago Inter Ocean: The
Horr-Harvey debate is now mat
ter of history. 1t was from the
the first to the last memorable
affair. The discussion was not a
stormy one, but it cleared the at
mosphere and was, generally
speaking, to the benefit of both
sides to the controversy. Mr..
Horr made as good case, prob
ably, as any one could for the
single standard gold advocates.
He presented some points with re-
markable force and clearness and
pushed every point for all that it
was worth. He undoubtedly had
the advice and suggestion of the
best-informed men of his way of
thinking. He may not have con-
vinced any of the double standard
men or any of the extreme silver
men, but he showed them that
there were two sides to the con
troversy, and in doing this and in
putting his side of the question
before men who were disinclined
to read arguments in favor of a
single standard he accomplished
one of his purposes.
In another particular Mr.. Horr
failed utterly. It is stating the
case mildly to say he was great
disappointment to the gold men.
He did the best he could but he
failed to make his case. He fail
ed to satisfy even the men most
inclined to see him at his best.
He came West with the idea that
he would denolish Mr.. flary
and discredit "Coin's Financial
School" He did neither. M.
Harvey stands after the exper-
ience of this debate stronger with
friends and certainly stronger
with his opponents. He has met
the issue squarely, has treated the
whole question in a serious. Dig
nified way, has demonstrated that
he has at his command a wonder
full amount of information, that
he is as conscientious and pains
taking as any collector of statis-
tics of the day, and that he is
honestly and earnestly in favor
of the policy represented in his
book. The debate, it must be re-
membered was as to the reliab lity
of the statistics presented in
"Coin's Financial School" and as
to the force of the arguments made
in that book. The statistics stand
almost unimpeached, and the ar
gaments have been made stronger
instead of being weakened. MIR.
Harvey has been introduced to a
larger audience than he had be-
fore. In his book Mr.. Harvey
was in the position of man talk
ing without interruption; in the
debate he met an antagonist re-
garded as more able than himself
and certainly more experienced in
debate. He acquitted himself as
we'll in this position as he did in
the book and this is saying a good
deal.
The debate has been of interest
to all parties in the controversy,
and, as we have said before, it
has been a benefit to all. The
two gentlemen most concerned
leave the question in better shape
than they found it, and all grades
and degrees of silver men and
gold men may read the debate
with interest, if not with profit.

RYE AT THE IRRIGATED FARM.

Mellette, S. D., Aug. S, 1885,
At this time the most interesting
of the tests made on the expert
mental plats on the irrigation
company's farms is that of the
ryes, because it is the season of
the year when farmers are look
ing for the best varieties for next

A. Salzer seed company, of La

was last year introduced for the
first time in this country. 1t has
already proven the best fodder

country. 1t should be sown in
June OF July, or even during the
present mont h. Two heavy
crops of fodder can be cut from
it this fall and next year mag

1t should not be sown too thick as
it frequently throws UP 40 to rs

of from one foot to Is inches in

broad and the growth very heavy.
This rye can be pastured all the
rest of the season, without in the
least lnjuring next years crop.
1t is considered to be as good a

rye, and the quality is equally
good. Cultural directions are
the same as those for ordinary
rye. On the experimental plat
here the st. Johns rye is being
cut off the ground every week,
and this will be done until late il

that heavy pasturing will have nc

was not from true holiness, but from
childish innocence" The latter state
ment involved the question of evolution,
which Woodworth firmly adheres to as a
good method of reasoning, both for
science and for Christianity. Some of
the members of the church, arraigned
against Professor Wodworth, say they
will take the matter before the academic
senate and the board of regents of the
university, arguing that if a man is unfit,
because of his heresies, to teach Sun
ay school, he is not proper person to in
struct the students at the university. To
this Professor Woodworth says that to
eliminate his teachings at the University
OF California they must eliminate science
and put in orthodox clergymen of the old
school, who will teach as truths, tradition
and legends that are no more valuable,
except symbolically, than the myths and
legends of ancient Greece.

OWNED SCHOONER NORMA
F. D. Walker Denies Charges
of Deportation
HIS BUSINESS IN HAWAII
Was Suspected of Implication in the
Rebellion
The Marshal Took Up His Passport and the
Sailorman Was Compelled to Remain
Over One Steamer

San Francisco Feb. 24.-Among the ar
rivals on the steamer Gaelic from Homo
lulu was +. D. Walker of the schooner
Norma, who, according to the stories cir
culated, was asked to leave the Republic
for the Republics good.
Walker denies this and tells tale of
how he left on commercial business.
Walker was originally from Victoria, b.
c., and went to the islands first five or
six years ago. There have been suspi-
cons for long time that he was engaged
in opium smuggling from British Column
bia to Hawaii, and not long since the
Norma was believed to have unloaded
lot of arms for the revolutionists at one
of the islands. As Walker made frequent
trips back and forth the Government con-
sidered that it had a strong case against
him.
Shortly after the recent attempt to re-
store the Queen, Walker was preparing to
sail for Victoria on the Warrimoo. At
the last moment he was asked to see
the Marshal, and when he did so his pass
port was taken up. At this, SO Mr..
Walker stated he went to see President
Dole and then Attorney General w. o.
Smltn. bOJn were absent, however, anu
he got little satisfaction from subordin
ates. Then he went to British Consul
Hawes, but Hawes told him it was a time
of war, and he got little satisfaction from
him.
The upshot of it was that he was de-
tanned until the Government could look
into his case and then he got word that
he was to be deported. Walker says that
he was not deported, but there are init
nations that that is about what it
amounted to.
Walkers story is that he did not really
own the Norma but that she was Sin his
name" while in fact Mr.. Rowell of Hon
olulu was the proprietor AT the same
time f. j. Claxton of Dolby & Claxton,
Victoria, had her chartered. Walker tells
that the Norma, at the time she was sup
posed to be smuggling arms and opium,
had really gone to the head Of Queen
Charlotte sound for salmon.
Walker processes loyalty to the Hawaiian
government and says that just before the
recent revolution he was preparing to
visit London, with the concurrence of
President Dole and the cabinet to raj Sc
funds for laying cable from Vancouver to
Honolulu. Walker is now en- route to
Victoria.

Catholics nust Leave Secret Societies or the
Church
New York, Feb. A.-Arch bisop Corrigan
today sent to every priest in the diocese
of New York the folloing letter:
Reverend Dear Sir:-A recent decree of
the holy office, confirmed by the sovereign
pontiff, instructs the bishops of the
United States to advise the faithful COM
nit tied to their charge, against affilation
with societies known as the Odd Fellows,
the Sons of Temperance and the Knights
of Pythias with the further injunction
that if Catholics, after such admonition,
persist in their connection with any of
these societies and will not give up mem
bership therein, they cannot receive the
sacraments. The general reasons on ac-
count of which it is unlawful for Catholics
to join societies forbidden by the church
will be found in the third plenary council
of Baltimore.
81 am, reverend dear sir, very faithfully
yours, Michael Corrigan,

thanked the audience for their generous
welcome. 1t showed him, he said, that
they did not regard him as a bull in

beautiful china shop of the Y. M. c. A.
The climax of the eloquent address was
reached in the following passage:
''While l am uncompromising in the
matter of my faith and infexibe in those
lines of conduct which depend on princi-
pies of faith, and while l would deserve
the contempt and scorn of every right
minded man if 1 were to recant to my

Catholic Church which prohibits or pre-
vents me from working for the good of
my fellow men, no doctrine which inter-
feres with my allegiance to the Govern
ment and laws of my country. On the
contrary, know that the whole teaching
and the whole spirit of my religion re-
quires me to be true to my country and
its Government, and to promote its honor
by the faithful discharge of all the duties
of American citizenship, and all Of you

NiTCuiar Letters sent Out Explaining tne

Washington, Feb. 24.-The Commission

lar letters to all collectors of internal
revenue calling their attention to the joint
resolution which recently passed both
houses of Congress and received the ap-
proval of the President, extending to
April Is, the time within which all in
come tax returns shall be made. This
resolution was passed at the suggestion of
Commissioner Miller of the Internal
Revenue Bureau who, in his letter to
Congress, stated that the unexpected de-
lay in passing the appropriation bill for
the collection of the income tax had so
shortened the time that it would be quite
impossible to distribute the blanks and
receive all the returns by March 1, the
date fixed in the original act.

interest of taxpayers, who otherwise,
through no fault of their own, might be
subject to fine for noncompliance with

verdict. He was next tried in 1892, on the
same charge and the trial again resulted
in hung jury, standing ten to two for
conviction. In 1893 he was tried
on the charge of misappropriating state
funds, and was acquitted. The present
specific charge was false pretenses in OBJ
tanning the signatures of the State De-

men have paid into the state treasury
$1O9,0 on account of his defalcations.
