INFESTED APPLE TREES.
Fifty Thousand Ordered Burned by State Commissioner of Washington

 Of Ss1 g D pea Dt into to be destroyed at once to the uttermost branch by order of the State Commissioner of Horti- culture. State Commissioner A Holderbeke re- turned from Seattle, having been called there to inspect a shipment of three carloads of found them all badly infested and diseased from root gals and tent caterpillar. Not Infested Nothing but destruction remained for them. On the opening of the cars great many boxes were found addressed to other points, thousands of trees for Tacoma and other fruit growing or distributing centers, and the County Inspectors are after them red hot chasing the boxes until they shall arrive in their territory.
 So universally and badly infested lot of shipped here before in the history of the State. Had the tres not been examined and been allowed to scatter over the State and planted. fin the words of the Fruit Commissioner, it would have cost the State millions of dollars to have restored the tone of the orchards to where they are today.
 A specimen of the apple trees was brought to the city by Mir. Hoderbeke. The tree is five years old and three feet in height. The cause of the stunted growth-less than a year s growth in any part Of this State-is seen to be the pests mentioned as infesting the entire lot of trees. That they could have passed the inspection of the New York entom9logist passes unders rstandng. The custom in the East is for the State Entomologist to inspect nurs- cries once a year and issue a certificate. These certificates are nailed on the boxes when the trees are shipped to other States and are

the American sugar trust, had to be aban-

sugar interests would be ruined by Cuban
competition was disproved by figures from

not be admitted in the light of the fact that
Mr. Mckinley himself favored reciprocity

The Philippine Army.

No paragraph of the interesting report
sent to the Senate by Secretary Root on
Thursday respecting war expenditures and
conditions in the Philippines is worthier of
attention than the following:
I'm the middle of the fiscal year ending
June 80. 1901. there were about 10000 Ameri-
can soldiers in the islands. That number
Is now reduced to about $1,000. Orders
have now been issued for the return of the
sth. 18th, oath and 25th Infantry, and a
squadron of the 10th Cavalry, and when
these orders have been executed the num-
Der of American troops in the Philippines
will have been reduced to $4,000 For the
past six months we have been bringing
troops home, rapidly as we could do so
economically, by the use of our own trans
ports. Quarantine requirements have caused
some delay in the movement of transports
but we are bringing the men home more
rapidly than We can provide accommo da-
lions for them, until appropriations con-
tanned In the pending appropriation bill for
the support of the army become available"
The probability Is that this will be in the
nature of news to nine out of ten people
who will read it. We have been hearing
so much of late about the irreconcilable
character Of the Fiiipiros and the savagery
of the American soldiers in bringing them
under that the fact that the military force
in the Islands has been reduced in eighteen
a.
thousand men will come as a surprise. In
all of the recent debates in Congress on
the subject the anti-imperialists have paint
ed the picture as though our bIuecoats were
still swarming everywhere, and finding it
difficult even in large numbers to hold their
ground. And yet here we have the official
figures to show that so rapidly has the
work of pacification progressed, only a
comparatively small force is necessary now
to safeguard what we have achieved. And
even this force will be reduced in a little
while.
The army has done its work in the Philip
pines with a thoroughness which We are
probably but poorly prepared 20 appreciate

fashion. But, from that day, they were
pushed back over mountains and through
swamps and jungles with tirelessness and
persistency which nothing could withstand.
AS consequence a great deal of work has
