Mr.. Underwood rs ..pnrty whip,

Whenever the roll is called in the
House it is rare indeed that Representa-
tive Underwood fails to respond to his
name. He is seldom away from the
House during the sessions except. of
course, when he takes lunch. This is not
because he is more punctial than his col
leagues or that he is more attentive to
his legislative duties, but he is thus ever
on the alert because his position of
party whip demands it.
He must see to it that all absent
Democrats are paired with live Republi-
cans-that is. Republicans who are pres
Cnt and could vote but for being paired
Again. he must be on hand ready to round
up his side of the House at the first sign
of political storm cloud, which now and
then bursts in the House almost without
a moments notice. All the Democrats
have the utmost faith and confidence in
their whips" judgment And it can be
said to his credit that in his activity
In the Office Mr. Underwood keeps the Re-
publicans guessing, for on more than one
occasion he has caught them mapping.

'The Yaqui Indians, who are giving the
Mexican Government so much trouble, are

be found" said Sir. E. Gibson. Of the
State of SimaIoa Mexico, at the Raleigh.

many Yaquis. They are IN honest, in
dustrious, and thoroughly reliable peo-
pie. The reason they arc fighting so
desperately is for the same cause that
the Beers are withstanding the English
forces in the Transvaal. The fight is for
home and resistance TO what they CON

Northern GeorGia's Peach Orchards.
in the part of northern Georgia that
come from hundreds of our farmers are
making considerable money out of their
peach orchards, said Representative
John ". Maddox. of that State, ct the
! Metropolitan.
1T has been only within the last ten
years that anybody in our region gave
any thought to deriving revenue from the
fruit business Throughout my district
there were long stretches OF very poor
ridge lands. of a gravelly nature. deemed
scarcely fit for any kind of crops It was
learned later that on these ridges the
peach could be brought to a high state
CT cultivation, and the result is that they
are now covered with magnificent orch
ards, producing such perfect and luscious
fruit as to be eagerly sought for in tine
biggest markets
One acre of land will sustain 15G trees
easily and in a good year each tree will
bring 81 to the owner. The common prac-
tice is to sell the output of an entire
orchard while the peaches are on the
trees.
Constant attention and labor are de-
manded in keeping an orchard in good
bearing condition. hut the profits are very
satisfactory. The greatest handicap to
the business IS in the preIla ture budding
OF the trees in unseasoaably warm
weather succeeded by 4 cold wave which

New Scheme Of Customs Inspection.
There should be a simpler and better
way of inspecting the baggage OF Amerf-
cans returning to this country than that
in vogue at New York" said Judge NJ c.
Tonner, of Brooklyn, last night at the
Riggs House.
The present way is so prolific OF an
noyance that wholesale protests are going
up against the methods of the inspectors.
Why would it not be feasible to have
corps OF customs officials on every return
ing transatlantic liner? They could
have the passengers submit their baggage
for examination while on the voyage, and
there would be ample time in which to do
the work thoroughly. The cost of such
service would not be as great as the pres
ent system. and it could be made far more
effective and at the same time more salts
