savings banks is so strong in Chicago
that both party platforms pledge the can

Enlistment Of postal savings banks

end would have my hearty support.
Postal savings banks have given satisiac-
ton to the people wherever they have
been tried. Their existence in all parts
OF the country is constant invitation to
thrift and economy, and wherever thrift
and economy prevail, poverty, ignorance
and crime disappear. The establishment
of such a system of agencies for the re-
cepton OF the smallest deposits would be
in exact accordance with the principle
which should characterize all our legisla-
tion-namely, the protection OF the

He seems to have peculiar knack

says that jim is a bigger ass than Josh
He says that when you were in Canada
you we've always in some fool scrape or
other.
You don't seem to realize that you are
giving him just the chance that he wants
to get his populistic, Bryanistic, exposis-
tic, fusionistic, free silver theories placed
sqnarely before the people (Which is just
what we do not want).
We are in favor of sound money-that
is the money that sounds in old Roths-

We are also in favor OF bimetallism (by

any to write articles. But if we can gel
him on the rostrum, as YOU call it, there
will be a chance for him to kill himself

ENEMIES TO CAPITAL.

In the minds OF the great majority OF
Capitalists. as we'll as of many others,
| the worst enemy tc capital is the anar-
chist or socialist, while not few look
upon labor as the natural and persistent
fenemv to that which is known as capital.
The anarchist or socialist may desire to
disseminate capital, but by reason OF
| fewness in numbers they are powerless.
Labor, while it may strive with capital
| is not an enemy 10 capital because it de-
ponds in great degree, as conditions
now are, upon capital.
The worst enemies to capital are capt.
|talists themselves. Those of the Gould,
Rockefeller, Spreckels stripe. Who build
[up by tearing others down. Who trample
|down individuality and competition.
Who desiring railroad manipulate
|the markets, destroy the value OF its
|istock, bankrupt it, then buy it in for a
|song; the original stockholders losing all.
Or, the oil fields or sugar interests are
Bmarked combinations are formed the

strong corporation selling the product
below cost in the field of the former

dice the minds OF the people, not against
capital rightly used, but against the ar
mogance and abuse Of capital
Where it is reciprocal labor respects

At wedding feasts in Morca the brido
and bridegroom stand upon sofa or a
box, while the guests gather around
singing and making speeches in their
honor. Rice and cotton seeds are thrown
after the departing pair. Upon her en-
trance to the now home the bride must
drink glass of honey and water, that
her words may always be sweet Often
the door sill is smearcd with honey. In
Rhodes the bridegroom, dipping his fin.
gers in nectar and tracing cross on his
door, says to the bride, "Bc good and
sweet as honey" Then he crushes a
pomegranate and enters the house. In
some parts of the country, when the
bridegroom enters tho brides house he
breaks a stick on the doorstep to show
his power over his future wife. In all
parts of the country the brida is sup
posed to behave very humbly. At tho
feast she usually sits i'll Il corner on a
pile of cushions, while her now lord sits
in the center of the gathering. The
guests carry away small honey cakes or
little white satin bags Of candy, which
are really very pretty. In the island Of
Cyprus the groom is carried to his we'd
ding i'll the arms of his friends. If no
comes from a distance, however, he ell
ters Oh horseback, and the youths of the
brides hamlet Try to pull him from his
horse, bat it is his aim to ride proudly
UP to her door and bear her away in
triumph.
Sometimes the shepherds pretend tc
carry away TIER brides, but the resist
anco is only feigncd, and one who has
seen all these odd things says tho mock
resistance usually ends with tho words,
"Drivo on and never mind my teara "

ANOTHER. FRUIT PEST.

The Agricultural college has issued a
circular relative to the Brown Rot of the
plum, peach and cherry, which has re-
Gently made its appearance in Washing
ton, especially in the western portion,
from which the following extracts are
taken:
BROWN ROT, OR FRUIT MOULD.
Usually the first symptoms to attract
attention are the numerous graylsh white
pustules that appear on the surface of the
attacked fruit These pustules consist OF
the reproductive bodies of the fungus,
which under the microscope are seen to
be oval in shape and arranged in rows
like string OF beads. They are called
conihia. The fungus becomes scattered
by these conidia, being carried by air
currents or in some cases by insects.
Under favorable circumstances the conf
da quickly germinate sending out germ
tube that will penetrate healthy fruit
and soon cause it to rot. In the labri-
tory single condium planted on an
apple or plum Ail develop SO far in "a
hours that new conda will be produced.
From this it is easy to understand why
the disease spreads so rapidly in orchards
in favorable weather; sometimes the crop
being ruined in few days time.
a remarkable feature of this fungus is
that the attacked fruit usually "mummi-
ties," that is, becomes dry and remains
hanging TO the trees. 1t is mainly on
these" mummifcd" fruits that the fungus
passes the winter ard on such fruit the
coni,la will be found in abundance in the
spring.
Besides the fruit the fungus also at
tacks the leaves, the flowers and the
twigs.
The disease spreads much more rapidly
in damp weather than in dry, so that
some seasons the damagc'Is more serious
than in others. Wet weather about the
time the fruit is ripening is particularly
favorable to the fungus and this may ac
count in part for the injury it caused this
season.

REMEDIES.

AS the fungus passes the winter mainly
on the "mummiiied" fruits 1t is OF prime
importance that these be gathered and
burned. This treatment alone is often
sufficient to hold the fungus in check and
even il the trees are sprayed should not
be omitted. Spray during the winter or
before the buds open in spring with
ordinary Bordeaux mixture, or with Il
simple solution OF copper sulphate (blue-
stone) using one pound TO twenty-five
gallons of water The second spray
should be just before the flower buds
open and Il third one just after the petals
fall off. Both these later sprayings should
be with Bordeaux mixture prepared as
follows, viz:
Copper sulphatc (blucstone). Il pounds
Unslaked lime ........... 6 pounds
The best results in making Bordeaux
are obtained by dissolvins the lbs blue
stone in twenty-five gallons water and
the 6 lbs lime in the other twenty five
gallons. The lime water is then poured
into the bluestone water, thoroughly
stirring the mixture during the operation.

Reduce the Figures.

As was shown by the Ledger recently,
millions Of dollars are annually appro-
prated by congress in the river end har-
Dor bill for the improvements interior
creeks and rivers which can never be
made navigabe. This is one OF the re-
suits Of the reciprocity Of grab" game
mentioned by Senator Wilson, and which
has been we'll known factor in this
particular bill.
Last year the appropriations for rivers
and harb ors amounted to about twenty
three million dollars. but that was only a
beginning, high as were the figures. The
estimates of engineers officers for the
coming work is more than double the
former appropriations, being placed at the
snug sum of oyer forty-eight million dol
lars. OF this seventeen millions is fol
continuing work already commenced
That the immense sums recommended by
the engineers are altogether too large
both for the condition of the government
pulse and the needs OF the country, is well
known, and the action OF representatives
and senators will be closely watched
when the river and harbor bill comes up
for consideration.-Ledg
1t is with pleasure we note the fact that
there have been sent out from the exec
utive office to the various newspapers Of
the state handsomely printed copies O
Gov. Bogers' justly celebrated Thanks
giving proclamation. From literary
point Of view, that proclamation was ar
achievement of which the governor has

was delightfully."- vague as to the reasons

kind. We accept the governors view
