Fitzgerald enterprise. (Fitzgerald, Ga.) 1895-1912, 1905-02-11

We present the following clipping for our
readers imparti consideration, some who know
it's source may agree with it from prejudice
others may disagree with it from the same reas-
on. However, it appeals directly to every true
American citizen.
Is it not about time that we indicated very
emph aticay to all foreign neddlets that the
people OF the United States are fully qualified TO
run their own Government and domestic affairs?
From the days of George III, and later of Lord
Brougham, down through the middle of the last
century, when Richard Golden, John Bright
and ther associates took much interest in
our Tariff, to the present time, when the in
terests aud officials of Europe keep constantly
medding, even to interference, with our laws
and their administration, we have been COM
PEELED to thwart and guard against an industrial
enemy bent on having a hand in the manage
ment of our affairs. 1t is time, we say, that
this insolence be rebuked and resented. Our
representatives in Europeans capitals do no.
presume to offer advice concerning the making
and ad minstration of foreign laws Why, then,
do we so patiently tolerate the advice and inter-
ference of foreign interests not only at home
but of foreign officials in this country? Imagine
an American Am bassador at London, Paris or
Berlin, or American minister or consul at
any small capital, proffering advice as to what
laws should be enacted or executed! He would
fud himself persona non grata at once and his
government so informed. Not SO, however, here
But it is time that we very politely asked these
meddlers to mind their own business and allow
US to make our own laws and administer and
execute them when made. Their time and tai
ent can be expended to better purpose.

CORN CULTURE IN THE SOUTH.

Stain \d NCi W III uOll ~ dStlSS III
all parts of the South is also Cf|
doubtful economy, especially
when the work is done by hired
labor. More or less ears are
sure to be broken off and lost.
If the stripping is done early the
yield of grain is decreased, and
if done late the fodder secured
is of very little value. 1t is often
the case that la borers are glad to
pull the fodder on shares, taking
one half and giving the owner
the other half If The crop is
we'll matured before the pulling
is done this will be profitable to
the owner, but the fodder will
rarely paw for the labor when it
must be pulled by hired labor.
If the securing of a certain
amount of forage is the only OBJ
ject it will seldom be profitable
for the Southern planter to hire
labor to gather either the whole
stalks, the tops, or even the
leaves from his cornfelds when
he has land on which he can
grow>hay, and stock to Craze the
corn6eld after the crop has been
gathered. If be has labor which
would otherwise be idle, or if it
is desirable to clear the ground
for the immediate sowing of
some other crop, the fodder is
well worth saving, even though
it makes forage of an inferior
quality.
When corn is to be used dur
ing the winter for feeding fifteen
or more mich COWS it is econo-
mical to use part of the crop in
filling a silo. A silo of sufficient
size to hold Is tons, or feed for 20
COWS 100 days, can be built for
about 500. while one of larger
size can be built for much less
expense in proportion to it's ca
pacity. The average cost of
growing the corn and filing the
silo is about ST. per ton. The
crop of stalks from an acre will
require about the same amount
of storage room, whether it is
placed in a silo or is preserved as
lshredded fodder, though the
building for the silo must be
much more substantial than that
needed for she1tering the fodder.
The silage will give much better
satisfaction than fodder for feed
mich COWS, but the fodder is
considered preferable for horses
or mules. The same power and
the same machine which are used
in shredding the stalks may be
used in preparing the silage.
The common practice of gath
ering and storing corn with the
husks still inclesing the ears is
advocated by many from a be-
lief that the husks serve to pro-
tect the grain from the attacks
of insects which are often very
destructive 20 stored grain.
The two insects which are most
destructive to stored corn are
the Angoumois grain moth
(Gelechia cerealella) and the
black weevil (Ca1andra oryzae,
and as the corn is often infested
by one or both Of these insects
while still in the field there is
little to support the idea that the
husks serve as protection. In

Il BLOW TO FISHERMEN.
This Government Not to Protest
Against NescfomdIands 4ction.

Washington, March A-The Stats Department has
received official notice Of the decision of the
ment of Newfoundland TO revoke the privileges
long enjoyed by American fishermen of buying bait
and fishing IN Newfoundland waters. This promises
TO be serious blow to the New-England fishing
industry but there does appear to be sufficient
ground for a protest by this government. The
treaty OF 1878 did include the shore fisheries OF
lean fishermen. so that this privilege has been en-
good will Of the Newfoundanders.
After the failure. In Secretary Bayard's time, of
the treaty comforting specific rights American
fishermen in those waters, the Newfoundland gov
eminent, act Of comfy and in the hope that
the American government would enter into treaty
comforting certain reciprocal trade advantages,
authorized the issue to American fishing vessels or
licenses to take bait and fish In NEWFOUNDLAND
waters at merely nominal COST This privilege
American fishermen have divided the fisheries with
the Newfoundlanders
About a year ago the government OF Newfound-
land asked the United States TO make some return
Justice OF the appeal, Secretary Hay negotiated
treaty with Premier Bond. whereby the Newfound-
landers were to have free entry for their fish at
ports OF the United States and certain other prtv
leges in return for the fishing rights. The action
OF the Senate at the last session in amending this
treaty as to render it valueless to Newfoundland
and something in the nature OF retaliatory tariff
war is expected.
st. Johns, n. F., March PA meeting Of the
principal fishery merchants Of the colony, headed
by Edgar Bowring and Sir Robert Thorburn, has
unanimously Endorsed the governments action In
enforcing the bait act against Americans.

AUTOCRATS UNFOLDING.
No Sign of Intention to GiOe Any
Pozger to the People.

St Petersburg March 24.-The Liberals have
apnarentlv won a rneagre victory in the compo-
sition of the Bouligan commission to work out
a scheme of national representation Demand
ing a Chamber or Parliament elected by universal
suffrage, with the control OF the Budget admin
istration, they insisted that commission OF
bureaucrats could not be trusted to execute the
popular WILL and, backed by the press. they
kept up their agitation for the participation of
elected representatives. Powerful support was
also furnished by the zemstvos and doumas and
the professional and educational bodies through
Russia. which flooded NJ. Bouligan. Minister of
the Interior, and the committee Of Ministers
with resolutions of similar tenor. The Liberals
If they could get control OF the commission,
would vote proposition for the election Of a
constituent assembly which would pronounce
for a constitution. The government, however,
in order to prevent such contingency. yielded
membership on the commission only to "se-
lected" not elected" representatives.
The governments programme undoubtedly is
to restrict the body created under the rescript
to a Chamber composed of representatives Sc
lected by the classes sitting in conjunction with
the Council Of the Empire. but having only
consulting voice in legislation, thus preserving
intact the principle of autocracy. Unless future
events force the governments hand this pro-
gramme will be adhered to. The Liberals hold
that even If the government succeeds in
sembling such Chamber it will be an anon
alous government, which can force either its
suppression or transformation into a real legis-
lative assembly.
The necessity of increased taxation to meet
the expenses of the war is recognized. and the
Minister of Finance has submitted projects to
the Council of the Empire including taxes on
beer and matches and graduated tax on the
salaries of government officials, beginning with
1 per cent on salaries of over $500, which alto
gether would realize about 100000 There
is also proposition for a general income tax,
which undoubtedly would prove the most popu-
lar form of raising money, as it would bear
heaviest on those able to pay.
The papers are supporting the campaign for
peace and are beginning to print the history Of
the intrigues in the Far East for the protection
Of private interests, devoting special attention
TO NJ Bezobrazoffs connection with the Yalu
timber concession. The publications include
secret memorandum oe General Kuropatkin
pointing out that would be inevitable If
Russian interests were extended into Corea.
