Manila was TO give attention to the
presence in Washington OF AgoncIllo, the
accredited representative here OF the
Philippine Insurgents. They would not
say whether or not anv steps had been
taken looking to his expulsion from the
United States or to his arrest. but his
status. 1t can be stated, has already
been the subject OF careful study, The
officials have been loath to disturb him,
first. because they did not care to mar
tyrlze him unnecessarily, and secondly.
because they, dIdn ot care to expose
themselves to the criticism that they
were interfering Improperly with the
supply Of Information and arguments
respecting the Philippine question.
while the treaty was pending before the
senate. 1t Is possible, however. that
their patience is now exhausted, be-
lievins as they do that he has In some
fashion been connected with this out
break and that may be aroused to the
point OF action. II was said at the state
department plainly. that Agoncillo was
either traitor or a spy. II the Philip
pines are regarded as American territory
then he Is the representatives and active
agent OF an insurreetion against the
United States and as such is traitor.
II the Philippines are still In nominal
Spanish possession. then, as state OF
war still technically exists. he can be
regarded only as n spy. At the very
least his presence Is highly obnoxious
and there Is said to be.ample authority
for his expulsion by presidential, order.
Diplomats took lively Interest in the
news, realizing that tho. Sp.ernment of
the United States wiil'call upon them
very early to see to It that no aid OF
any sort is rendered to the Filipinos
and that no illibusterlng expeditions
shall leave their soil with munitions OF
war or supplies for the insurgents. Spe-
Cial precautions will be asked to be ta-
ken at Singapore and Hong Kong. prin-
cipal POINTS of the Eastern trade, to
prevent the dispatch OF vessels carrying
secret carsoes in aid of the insurgents.
1t Is believed that the interests OF other
nations In a peaceful state OF things in
the east will cause them TO exercise spe-
c!al vigilance In this respect, matter
of much importance. In view Of the
great number and extent OF the Philip
pine Islands. Without the receipt OF
arms or ammunition from the outside,
the insurgents will be badly handicap
ped. The United States, by refusing to
recognize Agoncllo In any way, Is in n
strong position automatically and no
doubt is expressed. as TO all European
nations maintaining n most correct at
titude and refusing In any manner tn
acknowledge that Aguinaldo and his
followers have any status warrantins
their recognition in any manner.

Depository School Law.

y. y
N Attorney General Rusker has, In an
swer to n request from Mr.. Bowman,
chairman OF the house committee on
education, handed down a very import
ant opinion affecting the depository
school law. He holds that the passage
OF any measure abolishng the present
act would be unconstitutional. because
II would abrogate contracts into which
the state has entered.
There seems to be very general de-
mand for the repeal OF the depository
law, because OF the hardshlps 1t works
upon school patrons. The committee on
education therefore took under consid-
Grafton the advisabilIty OF repeating the
law The question Of constltutlonablllty
being raised. Mr. Bowman referred 1t to
the attorney general, with the above re-
suit.
Under these circumstances the COM
mlttee has done the next best thing-re-
ported a bill enabling dealers generally.

CHARLESTON. W. Va. Feb. 5.-The
subcommittee of the senate committee
on privileges and elections. consisting
OF Messrs. Smith and White, which
went to Parkersburg to recount the
ballots cast In Wood county for Morris
and Kidd. will report to the committee
to-day.
The subcommittee returned last
night, after having conducted thor
oush recount of about 500 ballots nich
had been rejected by the commissioners.
This recount showed 4 clear gain for
Morris Of 70 votes, which reduced
KIdd's majority in Wood county from
14l to II. The decision of the committee.
now hinges entirely on the depositions
made of the vote cast In certain pre-
cinct in Writ county, which, If thrown
out, Will give Morris q majority In the
district. There Is evidence before the
committee that the vote is Illegal, but
whether 1t Is conclusive enough to Jus
tify throwing 1t out the members of the
committee themselves do not know,
Chairman Mcneil stated tonight
that the committee would meet to-mor-
row afternoon and probably arrive at a
decision. The report will be so form
uated that its adoption or rejection
by the senate will determine the mat
ter. Senator Smith stated tonight that
unless the evidence that the vote OF the
Writ county precinct in question Is
entirely conclusive he will not vote to
throw 1t out.
The indications are that Kidd will
be seated. The Democratic leaders
have renewed their threats to hold up
appropriations unless he is.

Trees will start to grow in pretty
thin land, yet if they are to bear
good crops of fruit the slil must be
enriched literally. During the
growth of the tree is a good time TO
build up, and winter is a good time
to haul out the manure. The best
results will be obtained if the fer
tilizer is broadcasted over the whole
surface Of the ground.
Nature is generous with her gifts,
but is niggard to him who will not
work in her ways. She is not TO be
deluded in farm nor field. She
must receive before she gives, every
time.
Growers make mistake in grow
ing large quantities of waste in fruit.
Buyers do not want pits and cores,
but these are multiplied where three
or four specimens are grown where
one should be, and the fruit Is small
er and less salable. Severe thinning
will not lessen the number of bush
els, often.
If the currant bushes are profit
less, give them a little heroic treat

thoroughly, encouraging the growth
of five or six canes. Manure we'll.
