Rains spresdinr Potato Rot.

). Whenever much rain falls before the
potato crop is dug there is always
more or less rotting of the tubers.
Most of the new varieties s.s near the
surface. When digging those where
the rains have wet down to them will
usually be found badly rotted, while
those that have set lower down will
be found entirely sound. Most all of
our, new potatoes are punched in the
hill and when rot attacks one it spreads
very rapidly if the weather is warm
and-Inoist. For this reason potatoes
should be got out early before heavy
rains come, which will carry the
spores of disease down to the bottom
-of the hill, il theta is we'll drained,
s and none others should be used to
grow potatoes on. Deep planting. is
much bettersthan shallow, as it will

 HAVANA. Dec. 11.-Govcrnor General Wood has severed the official connection of the Havana Bar association with the government in consequence of the action of the association Sunday in electing to the board of governors five deposCd judges who had been removed for dis honesty.
 Hitherto the association has sustained semiotiicial relations with the govern nent. and the board of governors. or eX- ecutive committee. has had power to re- view certain court proceedings. General Wood had notified the association that there was ample cause for the removal of the offending judges and that no pro test had been made and no appeal taken.

SIDNEY M'NEIL'S LETTER.
Some Plain Statements of Life in the
 PhiliDDineS

Philippines.
 A Waterbury man who is doing ser vice in the Philippines writes to a friend in this city as follows:
 The Philippines are bunch or trouble on the horizon of civilization They are bounded on the west by hoo- dooism and smuggling, on the north by rocks anu destruction. on the east DE typho0ns and mOnsoons. and on the south by cannibals and earthquakes. The climate is a deceptive combination of changes well adapted to raising Cain. The soil is very fertile and large crops of inSurrection and treach- cry are produced. The inhabitants are very industrious. their chief occupa- ton being trench digging and the mak- ing of bolOS. Their houses are made chiefly of bamboo and landscape. The Philippine marriage service is very impressive. especially q clause wherein the wife is given the privilege Of work ing as much as her husband desires. The chief amusementS are cock fight ing and stealing. The principal diet is fried rice. boiled rice. stewed rice, and rice. The beast of burden is the car rihou. and should q journey of 100 miles be undertaken the driver would die of old age before reaching his deS tfnation Malarial fever is so prevail ent that on many occasions the islands have been shaken as by a chill or be- cause of the vibration of the popula- ton. The natives are very friendly at the point of your gun. Such is the condition of this dirty country where Americans are dying every day to save sugar for the trusts. You may not regard this as a good account of the place, but it is true nevertheless.

WHO SHALL IT BE?
Talking Up a Successor to Prosecuting
 Attorney Bronson

h''oILlOS
 though months must pass before the expiration of Attorney Bronsons term
 as prosecutor in the district court takes
 place. the lawyers are already begin nlng to Surmise who his successor Will he. It is understood that NIr Bron-.
 son Will not be reappointed. for it was to effect his removal that Judge ooWell was not nominated for either branch of the legislature last fall And
 illS reappolntment will rest to q great extent upon his promise to remove MT Bronson. During the election cam paign this matter was discussed more or less and MT Bronson was credited with saying that he did not care rap whether or not he would be reappoint-
 ed
 Report based on fairly good grounds has it that MT BronSon'S successor will
 be the present deputy judge of the dis trict and city courts. A. P Bradstreet There can be no stronger objection to his being appointed to the deputy
 JudgeShipS, and strong and many as they were they have been overcome.
 But the row raised by Attorney Ken
 drick some time ago over Judge Brad street practicng in his own court and the objection by the powers that are and will be to Mir Bronson being re- i tanned m his present Oftce nave all tended to smooth the way toward the appointing of Judge Bradstreet to the
 Drosecutorship. The only possible ob- l iection that can he raised against his being appointed to this office is that
 which was raised against his gettin" i the iudgeShip. he is q nonresident of | the city. But it cannot be said that he : is a nonresident of the jurisdiction Of the court. so that removes all the {. grounds for reasonable objection. i The salary of the prosecuting officer | is S1 ,IuO and almost nothing to do, while the salary of the deputy judge is
 re@ulated per diem and there is q whole lot to do. In other words. it
 does not pay lawyer of Judge Brad
 streets practice to be a deputy judge
 of the district court even if what was,
 said some time ago was true. which it
 was not. that he earned last year S2.O0O as deputy judge of that court. ThlS
 office interfeyeS with Judge Brad
 streets practice: the work of prosecut-
 ing attorney would not interfere. but
 on the contrary would promote it.
