Professor Van Demar, in Vick's Magazine: The plan which I have fol-
 lowed with success and OF INTER- without permanent in-
 EST TO jury is girding in early THE TREE summer time. Thi 8 GROWER. should be done in June.
 A single cut may be made with a knife through the bark, entirely around the trunk at any con venient place; or, two or more such cuts may be made. If a ring of bark several inches wide is peeled off entire ly around the trunk of an apple or pear tree at this time of year, no harm will follow, for new bark will soon form over the wound. Another very good plan is to remove long strips of bark about two inches wide, pointed at both ends, and leaving spaces of bark of about the same width.
 Any of these will cause a checking of the flow of sap and an unusual formation of fruit buds instead of an excess of wood buds. The trees of the stone fruits are much more sensi- tive to injury and will not safely en- dure such treatment as has been de- scrfbed; nor do they usually need to force them into bearing.

The idea of the referendum in adopt ing laws receives a setback whenever
 there are constitutional RBFEREN- amendments submit DUM NOT ted to the people POPULAR. There are so many who
 lack interest enough to vote on an important constitutional amendment, and such great number who vote against all amendments for no particular reason, that the referen- dunn method seems rather premature until the people can be induced to take a deeper interest in exercising their voting franchise. h. is quite evident at present that most of the people pre- fer to delegate the law-making powers to somebody e,se, perhaps fecIng that they are. relieving themselves of a burden.

 It is true thalt a great part of the in- creased army will be sent to the Phil ipplnes. but only to take the places of those who, after two years of arduous service in an enervating climate, will be sent home to rest and recuperate. It may be said that of all the military posts in the United States, there is none which would be so acceptable to a worn soldier as Whipple. with its healthful surroundings, and none in which he could so quickly regather his strength, For this reason if for no other-but there are many others-the old post ought to be re-established.

ON A PRAIRIE TELEGRAPH POLE
(By Arthur Strir,ger. ]

(By Arthur Strirger.) Past mountain and foothiI, plain and lake,
 Where it links the East and West, The tense wire tingles from sea to sea A river that runs unrest.
 A AS a two-stringed harp of haste it throbs With the rise and fall of states, And sings through 6 land of sun and peace Of far-off wars and hates Through a glimmering sea of waving green, Of silence and golden suns, As thread of pain in the wool Of peace From world to world 1t runs. But the tales it tells are idle tales, And the songs it sings are strange To us who follow tine glad, glad trail Of the sun on the Open Range"

For many years. owing to the south's adherence to the democrat

For many years. owing to the south s immovable adherence to the democrat

 MIGHT its member of congress
 VS. has been almost insig-
 RIGHT. nificant. The absence
 of the negroes from the polls was bluntly accounted for by Ben Tillman, when speaking on the bill for the government of Hawaii last Febru- ary: We buEdozed the niggers and we shot 'em." Recently. however. the negroes have been disfranchised by swept away all possibility of doubt that they were disfranchisad because they were negroes, contrary to the if teenth amendment of t.he constitution forbidding the denial of suffrage to men on account of their color.
 The prevailing opinion among poll ticians beginning to assemble in Wash ington is said to be opposed to any ac- tion on the part of congress in conse- quence of this new departure in the ex- ercise of state authority. It is thought to be advisable, for one consideration or another, to ignore the disfranchise- ment and to keep the power of the vote suppressing constituencies in the house of representatives and in the electoral college equal to the power of the con stftuencies in which votes are not SUD- pressed.
 The fifteenth amendment to the con- stitution was built upon the fourteenth amendment, which says:
 When the right to vote at any elec- ton for the choice of electors for pres ident and vice-president of the United States, representatives in congress, the executive and judicial officers of a state or the members of the legisla- lures thereof, is denied to any of the male inhabitants of such state, being 21 years of age and citizens of the United States, or in any way abridged. except for the participation in rebellion or other crime, the basis of representa- ton therein shall be reduced in pro- portion which the number of such male citizens shall bear to the whole number of male citizens 21 years of age in such state.''

Failure so to do will be a vio- lation of the constituti3n. plain, delib- crate and as dangerous as such pol icy must inevitably be. It will be inn perialism.

 publicans have gained Senators Stewart and Kyle, they have lost Wellington; and Pettigrew, owing to his defeat, aided by Allen, who also retires as soon as the Nebraska legis- lature meets, will do all in his power to obstruct legislation during the remain der of his term.
 Therefore it behooves the leaders to see that the full party strength is i'll the senate at all times. Two vacancies now existing, one in Delaware and 9ae in Utah, will be filled soon after the state legislatures meet in January, and two others, one in Pennsylvania

 Within the last few days word has come from Utah that 1he candidates for senator are making such a warm canvass that there is a possibility that there may be a deadlock out there. To prevent such an outcome, Perry s. Heath, secretary of the national repub- lican committee, has gone to Salt Lake City to consult with the leaders and try to smooth over matters, so that af- ter the party caucus all opposition will be withdrawn and the legislature elect a republican senator.
