How to Exterminate the Melon Louise.

Cover the hill of melons or cucum-
bers infested with lice with wash tub
and evaporate bi-sulphide of car
bon under it. a teaspoonfnl to one
cubic foot of space will be sufficient to
kill the lice in one hour and it will
not injure the plants if left two hours.
Last year, after my melons had been
destroyed by lice. I saw al account of
successful experiments made by DIR.
Smith, New J,r ;ey's state etymologist
ith bi-sulphate of carbon as a rem
e iy. This year, about the 10Th of
July. 1 found one hill of cucumbers
nearly covered with lice. imned at =
ly covered the hill with straw and
burned it. / saw no more lice until
+ bout ten days when found three hills
infested. I placed small dish in
Zach hill containing little more than
teaspoonful of of hi-sul lphjde of car
non and covered each hill with q tub
Jue plant [ uncovered in al hour and
he others in two hours. The lice were
III dead and the plants uninjured.
Later the lice appeared on several
1 Joining hills. These l covered with
tud old carpet and placed several
dishes of the remedy under it and fast
eled the edges of the carpet to keep
t e gas from escaping. The cover was
left on three hours and the lice were
killed. Bi-sulphide of carbon is eX-
c c,alingly inhamable and very poison
IS and should be kept tightly corked.
According to DR.. Smith "a single
louse may in five generations become
the progenitor of 600 million decend-
ants" In one week of dry weather
after appearance of the lice, they

City of Mexico:

| City OF Mexico:
| Exchange on New York has reach
! ed 145 premium. In other words, it
takes $3.45 Mexican money to buy an
American dollar containing less sill
yer than the Mexican. This enor-
nous depreciation of the Mexican dol
lar is running merchants. They are
| canceling all orders for Imports, and
many will close their stores, as they
| cannot sell the stock on hand at a
rate high enough to replenish them. "
1t is further stated that the mer-
chants who are being feeced "believe
! that the price is unnaturally depress-
e1:.and is due to conspiracy abroad"
and they are right about it. Mexic 0
is heavily in debt, and her bonds,
principal and interest, are payable in
gold at London. The local trade of
Mexico is carried on with silver mon
ey, and under present conditions the
value of the coin there is regulated
wholly by the market value of silver
bullion. AS bullion goes down, gold
goes up.
The same dispatch contains this
pdeSdSe.
''The government is hard hit, as it
has to pay the interest on the foreign
debt in gold. There is some talk of
repudiation, but there is no knowing
what President Diaz will do. He may
refund the per cent debt, paying on
ly per cent interest,"
Austro-Hungary and Italy have
gone to the gold standard, Russia and
Japan have adjusted their monetary
systems to the gold basis, Chill and
Peru are on the same road, Mexico
will follow, and We shall miss our
guess if other nations do not rapidly
fall into the gold lines until the great
banking houses of London, New York
Berlin, Paris and St. Petersburg have
absolute, as they now nave virtual
control of the worlds business.
N othing but a worldwide revolution
can prevent it.--Advocate.

Republicans exultingly say that they
will win next year and that they will
stampede the populisss to the repub-
lican party by merely pointing out to
them the way their fellows were bought
up in the legislature last winter. Joe
Ady, who was the republican caucus
nominee for United States Senator
when John Martin was elected in 1898,
says: ''If were a populist, / would
just like to have some republican
spring that argument. would ask
him, if the populisss were bought, who
it was that bought and who they voted
with after they were bought? If they
were bribed at all, they were bribsd
by corporations and were bribed to
vote with the republican members
How did it come that the republicans
were voting the way the corporations
wanted them to? If a populiss bolts
and goes to the republicad party be
cause he was offended at some mem
bers of his party for voting with thu
republicans it will look rather silly
won't it? Eiy advice to republican,
would be to let that subject alone.

PASSING OF THE STRIKE PERIOD.

Soon after the great strike at Chi
cago in 1894, Mr.. Debs said the time
for effective strikes had passed; that
in future some other way out of labor
troubles must be found. He spoke the
truth. The interests of the people OF
this great country have become so
inter-related that any serious inter-
rupion in any important branch OF
industry and business affects people in
other parts as we'll as those in the
immediate vicinity of the original dis
turbance. The Chicago strike affected
the whole country, because allthe peo-
pie receive their daily supplies by
transportation from other places.
Coal is the peoples fuel, and stop
ping the mining of coal affe local
home interests everywhere. While
nearly everybody would like the min
ers to succeed in forcing better wages,
yet they don't want the mines to close,
and so in this as in other cases, con-
ficting interests soon clash and the
weaker party goes down.
Mine owners, like railroad compan-
les and other great organizations, can
aft ord to wait and let strike exhaust
itself. If violence is resorted to, the
conservative forces OF society prompt
ly assert themselves, and the strike is
at once suppressed.
There is only one safe way cu5 of
these troublesome conditions, and
that is through public ownership and
of all great public fran
chises. Let miners and workingmen
of all classes unite with the Peoples
party and help us get control of the
