SENATOR HAWLEY FAILING.
Feared That He Never Again viii

Feared That He Never Again Will
Occupy His Seat at Washington.
New Haven, Dec 2.-The seat of
United States Senator Joseph r. Haw-
ley in all probability will remain va
cant during the present session of con-
gress. Some of his friends think that
he never again will occupy it. His
health has steadily failed, and the
stroke of paralysis which he suffered d
few weeks ago has left him weak. III
On the highest medical authority
available in Washington it is said that
his recovery is impossible. His resig-
nation may be handed in soon after
congress convenes and the Connecticut
legislature, which meets this winter,
may choose his successor.

William Boone, miner, says the
Kansas City Journal, who has come
down from Dawson City, Klondike, TO
spend the winter with relatives at La
Plata, says he has dug 225 feet deep in
the ground of his claim, but has never
been able to reach point where the
ground was not frozen hard.

KEEPING WITHIN BOUNDS.

A considerable number OF people
have asked The Sentinel why 1t
published the article from the man
Bean, the Pennsylvania, relating
to oil, which appeared in yester.
days issue. They have asked
whether we intended to throw a
damper upon the oil Promotionin IN
this section.
Our answer to such foolish in
quiry is that, we wrote the tlrst arr
ticle and continued to write articles
upon the question of oil explora>
ton in this valley, before they (the
inquirers) thought anything OF the
oil question or that there might be
remote possibility of discovering
oil in this county.
If they will examine the files OF
this paper OF last fall, they will dis>
cover long articles written detailing
the exploration then being made to
discover oil indication by DR.. Geo
E Cowell and Frank Smith in the
Buzzard creek country. And III
order to fix the matter let it be un>
derstood that it was these gentle>
men and their desire to know
whether there was any oil in this
section of the state, which develop
ed the first anxiety about oil and
who pushed forward the matter un
til companies were formed in this
city for oil exploration.
But to the main question. We
published the Bean article in order
to keep some people who might i'll
afford to lose their all from invest
ing it in some company which
might strike dry hole. And by
the way there may be good many
dry holes struck. But this will not
argue that there is no oil here
There is condition of speculative
interest in the oil matter right now,
which makes it a gambling propo>
sition and it is this we must all
trown down.
Legitimate investment of what a
man can afford to lose without en-
dangering the welfare OF his family,
shall find us not in opposition, but
speculation in oil beyond what may
be considered the final outcome or
benefit or profit, any sane man will
take heed to look upon with cons
demuation.

as general practice lies in the fact that

do not appreciate the value OF tree shade.
"Any effort, therefore. looking toward

several summers ago. 1t advocated a tree

beetle larvae. as they are descending to
the ground and to burn the webs Of the
first generation of the fall web worm.
This will finish the summer work. The
winter work will consist Of the destruc-
tion of the eggs of the white marked tus-
sock moth, the cocoons of the fall web
worm. and the bags of the bay worm.
The number of men to be employed and
the time occupied will depend upon the
exigencies of the case. Upon the thor
oughness of this work will depend. to a
large extent. the necessity for a greater
or less amount Of the summer work Just
described.
Another phase OF the question as to
how to preserve Washington's shade
trees in good shape is what can be done
by citizens where the city government
will not interest itself in the matter? 1t
is unreasonable to expect that a private
individual will invest in spraying ap-
paratus and spray the large shade trees

spraying operations where large trees

1.-The industries on which the islands
depend for their commercial existence are
sugar and rice exclusively.
THE profitable cultivation OF sugar and
rice depends on an adequate supply OF
field labor and the protection which tariff
