Insect Conquerors.

Arecent bulletin of the department Oh
agriculture points ont the fact that
within the past Is years there has been
a complete change in the chief insect
foe of the cotton plant. Previous TO
1881 the cotton worm was not only the
principal, but almost the sole, insect
depredator dreaded on the cotton planta-
tions. Since that year the cotton worm
has gradually disappeared, and new
enemy to the cotton plant, the boil
worm, has taken its place. Such reyo-
lutions in the insect world not infre-
quently occur, and sometimes they take
ON the appearance of actual conquests
effected by one species over Others. In
the Sandwich Islands, for instance, q
species of ant introduced from abroad
is driving out all other insects, the only
native species that seems able to with
stand it being the earwig.

Cheering the heart with love or hope or rest

The HAND That struck Down Blaine.

To THE EDITOR OF THE SUN-Sir: In a
speech the other night criticising the Republi.
can Administration for manifesting a desire for
Republican success In the pending contest in
Greater New York. I notice that Gen. Arson G.
McCook tried to excuse his hope OF Republican
defeat by recalling the recovery Of the party
following the defeat OF the late Judge Folger by
the late Grover Cleveland, using this language:
Yet. although the Republican party was defeated
by 1893. 900 votes that year. two years later 1t came
within LOO votes OF carrying the State for James G.
Blaine.
The name of Mr.. Blaine elected great ap-
plause, which should have reminded Gen. Mo.
Cook that he had not told the whole truth touch.
ing that incident.
The eleven hundred votes necessary TO defeat
the Republican ticket were found right in tho
borough OF Brooklyn, where Seth Low led tho
Mugwumps who knitted James G. Blaine and ele.
waited Grover Cleveland to his reign Of calamity.
Gen. McCook was a protested friend Of Mr..
Blaine. but there are lots Of real Blaine men
within the precincts OF Greater New York whose

The European Army Mannuvrcs.

While the Gar and the Kaiser have both
been proclaiming that they stand for the
peace of Europe, the army manmuvrcs that
have been carried out this fall in Russia
and Germany rave been on a scale unprc-
cedented in either country. Russia quietly
modified and concentrated > battalions
of infantry, Alb %squadrons of cavalry, and
261 batteries of artillery, representing SO
per cent. of her whole infantry force and 60
per cent. each of the cavalry and artillery.
The operations occupied over four weeks,
winding up with man9uvres in the
Crimea, the plan Of which was the defence
of the country against an invasion by n
foreign feet from the Bosporus. Clearly
the Russians are studying their past cam
paigns after the methods of the Prussian
general staff, and do not intend to be
caught repeating earlier mistakes, should
the general peace which their Car pro.
claims come to q sudden end.
Kaiser WILHELM turned out 10000 OF
his soldiers for his amusement this year, q
number never before approached in German
peace To add excitement and
picturesqueness to the operations, an ap.
pearance of real hostility was obtained by
pitting two Prussian army corps against
the two Bavarian corps. This tactless, If
theatrical, process diminished the force of
the demonstration as a warning to the
newly proclaimed Franco Russian alliance,
by recalling the facts that Prussians and
Bavarians ave fought against each other
within a generation, and hat Bavaria does
not relish the War Lords Identification OF
Germany with Prussia.
The Italians did not have much money to
spend on tactical exercises; what they had
they put into operations on the line Of the
Adige, studying their repulses in 1853 and
in 1866. The French, too, went over old
ground in their operations, carried on close
to the northwestern frontier. Throughout
Continental Europe work, rather thar
show, has been the characteristic of the
army man9uvres. and it has been work in
dicating a desire to be ready for something
that can hardly be a general peace.
