Di.hoae.s Nurserymen.

AZ an illustration Of the disappoint-
ments OF planting an orchard and getting
stock from irresponsible nurserymen,
the experiences OF Byram Luce is well
in point. Five years ago he secured a
five acre tract on the Surface Creek
mesa and ordered five hundred Elberta
peach trees from the Pioneer nursery,
OF Ft. Scott, Kansas. After four years
patient cultivation and care of the tract.
this season his orchard came into bear
ing and he finds that in the block he has
scvcn different,varietieso OF peaches. And
this is not the only instance OF the kind
that has come under our notice. One
shipment OF apple trees received from
this same outfit last spring had two
thirds condemned by Mr.. NJ ithews, the
orchard inspector and destroyed, owing
to the diseased condition Of the trees
Our fruit growers ought 20 spot all such
dishonest nurserymen and refuse them
all patronage. II they do not they will
be the only sufferers in the long run.

The campaign in Colorado this year
will command more general attention
than usual. The political situation in
that state has undergone a decided
change in the last two years. The fac
tional differences in the republican
party have disappeared and the republi-
cans ara now unnited and harmonious,
Most OF the silver republicans have re-
turned to their former sffililation aud
the great prosperity that Colorado haa
enjoyed In common with the rest OF the
country has materially strsug thened
the republican organization. The pop
ulist element has ceased to be a factor
OF any consequence and was entirely ig-
nored by the democratic convention.
The democratic having reafiirmed elle-
gieuce to the Kansas City platform it

to ALLEVIATE those OF the arty who re-
gard the ftse silver question as dead.

fThe extreme droutb that has affected

awakened a desire in many people to
0scoyer some means by which to sue

apply OF water for irrigation and domes-
nc purposes. Some have concluded that

the water would be ample for all pur-
poees. No one but those living adjacent
Forest reserves knows what a calamity
they are to the people. In order to pro-
cure load OF wood from a reserve where
thousands OF cords are rotting, one must
1fst obtain a permit from the super
yisor defining the locality where be wants
spget the wood. II like the God OF BaaI
NE supervisor happens to be away on a
sisit or has gone on journey, the ap-
Diicant must wait his return.
Having the permit he is allowed to
fiie the wood and tops and apply to the
supervisor or some subordinate, who
measures the wood. He may then re-
move it and not become treepasser. A

Native lum Der because Of these monop-
olies has advanced in price seven dollars

quires all OF the lops and tops to be piled

all the refuse down timber is to be
burned. Thus all obstructions to the

oerves are to be removed SO that the

fould it not be more wise for us to look
some other source for relief from
ndBeth than to the establishment of
timber reserves? They are a menace to
our prosperity and must be kept up at
an enormous EXPENSE,
Why not utilize the natural reservoirs
in the mountains-the lakes and NOR
aims situated at the source OF the larger
streams: Many OF them could be drained
from the bottom where pipes and gates
would be placed in position to draw off
or retain the water as desired. At the
natural outlets levees could be con
str0cted to increase the water in the
lakes. Spills could also be arranged to
convey the water from them upon ad-
joining bench lands, there to form glac-
iers that would melt slowly and add to
the volume OF water during the irrigat-
ing season. There would be no dagger
OF breakage or floods, nor would they
oil with debris but would prove an ef-
fectual relief in times OF drouth and
would add much to the wealth OF the

An Episode of the Telegraph After

citizen had time to collect his wits the
telegraph people had started out gangs
of linemen to get the wires I'm working

dred miles were set to calling &C. N"
For a long time there was no response,

Kidney disease is due primarily to a change in
the structure of the kidney, such as degeneration
or breaking down of the cells or integral parts
of the organ. Old age may cause it-more often
il is due to diet which will produce an excess of
uric acid, the attack of certain disease germs
which modern medicine declares produce what
is known as uric acid. When the tiny cells be-
come congested or inflamed the act of removing
the waste or useless matter from the blood and
body-the kidneys usual operations not
complished. The poisonous matter is retained
in the system-kidney disease sets in. You will
have eXcruciating pains in the back, your skin
will become sallow and muddy.
You will seriously injure yourself if you
attempt to cure this disorder in the ordinary
drug way. BY far the most effective means 20
is LiquoZone-the no-drug preparation.
LiquoZone, by increasing the Oxygen-carrying
power of the blood and stimulating action of
the kidneys, eliminates the uric acid from the
system completely. No matter what your age
is-no matter what the stage Of the disease

William J. McKiernan, n Newark
newspaper man, may not be the Shake
speare of the present century, but he Is
certainly n very prolific writer OF SEN
sational melodrama. 1t seems to re-
quire 10 effort on the part Of Mr.. Nc
Herman to enable him to turn out q
work OF this sort. 1t is true that he
has not enjoyed the pleasurable emo
ton OF having royalties pour in upon
him so fast that he was unable to keep
track of them. but it is equally true
that no one of his plays has been
fat failure.
Most persons are inclined to the opin-
ion that if Mr.. AcIziernan will devote
a little more time to the construction
of his "thrillers'' he will make his
mark in the theatrical world. 1t is
we'll enough to talk about the waning
interest in melodrama of the sensa-
tiOnal type, but the facts do not war
rant any such statement. There is as
much interest as ever in this form of
entertainment. and when one of its
examples fails to please it is because
of nothing else than its lack of merit.
Mr.. McKiernan is shortly to have pro-
duced his latest play, The Tombs An
gel" All the characters are said to
he New York city types, and the au-
thor's friends believe that in this play
he win score his first great success.
This is the season of the year when
the pape-S devoted to theatrical mat
tiers are flooded with announcements
of new stars. w. G.. Smyth, formerly
of the firms of Matthews & Smyth and
Smyth & Rice, now rises to remarf,
that he has discovered n young -

ston's admirers contended that the
plays misadventures were ascribable
to the poor treatment the dfamatists
gave the story. Her detractOrs, on the
other hand, were equally earnest in
the declaration that the dramatist
would have been more than human IL

Now, Miss Johnston's latest book,

success, and IL is reported that it will
at once be dramatized with a view to
its production next fall Then we
shall have an opportunity to ascertain
whether or not this young woman's
novels are susceptible of transference
to the stage, for it is said that the gen
