GROWTH OF PLANTS. AND SOTrJ,s

GROWTH OF PLANTS AND SOULS.
 Pulses in the ground that beat noise lessly. There are no crisis, no convul- sions. The steady movement is an ir- resistable upward push and expansion. Watch as we may, we cannot see the grass grow or the forest leaf opening it's little fan.
 An inch is added to the vine tendril, to the shoot of the rose branch; when did it come? Are the cunning pro- cesses all hidden away in the night, un- der cover of darkness? Who sees the arrival of the birds, the first softening of the sky, the first push of brown and waxy buds the first curl the fern shakes out, the first print on the hepatica leaf the first shy violet under the rock? These things are only ap- proximately known. The earth holds the secret of its dates, its times and seasons.
 The preparation has been going on long and silently in the dark workshop. The creative process has brooded and covered with its soft wings and young lings of the spring. The sky has taken a new and tender touch to bend over and welcome them, to shelter them when they come. The trees, still leaf less, wake from their sleep; they begin

 The colonization company has been operating in Mexico for the past eight years and it owns about 75,000 acres of land in the northern part of the re- public secured under special concession from the government with different improvement privileges.

or course. Senator Frye is still
convinced that the ship subsidy
principle is sound, and that it was
wisely embodied in the bill nitro.
duced in the last Congess. But we
believe that there are more people
who disagree with him than there
ever were before. The Hanna.t'r.e
Payne bill is admittedly dead. And
the men who drafted it pressed it as
vigorously as they knew how have
been forced to lay it aside III favor of
another IN hat they hope ma, be
less objectionable to tie people. So
the campaign will begin with the
opening OF Congress. What the new
bill il we do not know, but it Is safe
to say that il 1t is satisfactory to the
interests that have been so clamorous
for a subsidy it will be objectionable
10 the people. More and more they
are coming to oppose the whole sub
sidy principle, and to oppose it
strongly. And their opposition is
something that the Republican lead.
ers la better look out for.
That there will be q vigorous fight
against the new bill is OF course clear.

tives and able Republican news.

known TO be hostile Ia the proposed

the feeling in thus region realizes the
danger involved III pushing this sub.

there would have been a very q
spectacle Republican vote agInst the

had ever come to II vote. And there
have been acted on in the Senate had
it o been for the fact that the bill'r
Republican enemies almost openly
countenanced the Democratic fiiibus
ter against 1t. We think that the
situation is growing STEADILY worse
for the subsidy people. Senator
Frye, who seems disposed tn Judge
public sentiment by the sentiment Of
the people Of Maine. Is apparently
unable to understand that the upposi
ton to his measure throughout the
wet i'd almost rs strong among Re.
publicans MS among Democrats. Yet
such Is the fact.
The popularity OF reciprocity, the
belief that the tariff mu It come down
and the favorable view OF the move

for the benefit OF trusts are all so
many indications Of the growth OF the
opposition to the policy Of taxing one
