BOrerS in Fruit Trees.

The Borers are again at work
in the orchards. During the
coming month they should be
watched closely and killed at ev-
cry opportunity. The young Of
the apple tree borers confine their
operation largely to the base of
the tree and may be discovered
by the characteristic borers hang
ing from an orifice. The very
destructive peach borers work
similarly at the base of peach
trees, and it's precence is usually
indicated by the exuding gum.
The young of the sugar maple
borer, a most destructive insect,
are usually found at work on the
under side of the lower branches
or along the trunk up among the
limbs.
The only sure remedy is to cut
out these borers, even though
the tree is injured to some ex-
tent, because the grubs. if allow
ed to live, are likely to cause a
great deal more damage than the
cutting.
Where only a few borers are
detected they may be hunted by
means of a crooked wire inserted
in the hole made by the borers
and pushed as far as it will go.
This generally kills the grubs.

What Whisky Does.
Henry w. Grady.1


Tonight it enters a humble
home to strike the roses from a
woman's cheek, and tomorrow it
challenges this republic in the
halls o f congress. Today t
strikes a crust from the lips of a
starving child, and tomorrow
levies tribute from the govern
ment itself. There is no cottage
humble enough to escape it; NO
place strong enough to shut it
out. It defies the law when it
cannot coerce suffrage. It is
flexible, to cajole, but merciless
in victory. 1t is the mortal enc
my of peace and order, the de-
spoiler of men and terror of wo-
men, the cloud that shadows the
face of children, the demon that
has dug more graves and sent
more souls unshrouded to judg.
ment than all pestilences that
have wasted life, since God sent
the plaques to Egypt, and all the
wars since Joshua stood before
Jericho. It comes to ruin, and it
shall profit mainly by the ruin of
your sons and mine. 1t comes to
mislead human souls and to crush
human hearts under it's rumbling
wheels. 1t comes to bring gray
headed mothers down to shame
and sorrow to their graves. 1t
comes to change the wife's love
into despair and her pride into
shame. 1t comes to stifie all the
music of the home and fill it with
silence and desolation. 1t comes
to still the laughter on the lips of
little children. 1t comes to ruin
your body and mind, to wreck
your home, and it knows it must
measure its prosperity by the
swiftness and certainty with
which it wrecks this world.

Life is Embittered.


Life is too often embittered by the
grievous pains and suffering caused by
dyspepsi in one or another of its many
forms. No other disease covers such a
wide range of symptoms, or causes
such varied suffering to it's victims.
Stomach ache, headache, dizziness,
nausea, biliousness, constipation, fever
etc.,-all are are due to this one dread
full disease. No wonder that thousands
are SO enthusiastic over the cure of
their disease, by DR. Caldwell's Qax-
ative) Syrup Pepsin. 1t is most POI
tent, marvellous and universal cure.
Try it. Sold by J. N. Page. Of Colum-

Obituary..

The wise saying that death is
"a sickle which leaves no sheaf
ungathered," was again verified
when on the night Of September
18th, at II o'clock when the an
gel of death visited the home of
Mrs. En- Blair and claimed as it's
victim her loving son, Jim. He
was born July 30th, 1885 and died
September 18th, 1905, making
him 20 years, one month and 19
days old. He leaves to mourn
their loss a loving mother, six
brothers, four sisters with many
relatives and a host of friends.
Jim was a victim Of typhoid fe-
yer and had been confined to his
bed only a few days. All was
done that medical aid and loving
hands could do, but the disease
was too deeply seated for his re-
covery. He numbered his friends
by his acquaintance. He leaves
a vacant seat that cannot be filled
and he will be greatly missed.
The remains were laid to rest in
the Salem cemetery Wednesday,
September 20, ! p. m. A large
crowd of sympathetic friends at
tended the funeral. He left
bright evidence of a happy be-
yond. He cannot come back to
us, but let US so live as to meet
him in the bright beyond, where
sorrowing and parting is no more.
'Tis hard to break the tender chord,
When love has bound the heart.
'Tis hard. SO hard to speak the words
We must forever part.
Dearest loved one we must lay thee
In the peaceful graves embrace.
But thy memory win be cherished
Till We zee thy heavenly face.

Life Insurance Corruption
Funds.

It was developed in New York
last week, where an investigation
is going on into the affairs of the
New York Life Insurance Com
pany, that corporation alone con-
tributed in New York last year
to the Republican party $48,0 600.
Other large corporations Of like
nature probably did the same
thing It amounts to this that
every man who has his life in
sured contributes so much from
his policy to corrupt the voters in
the interest of the Republican
party. When Judge Parker's at
tention was called to this expos
ure he said:
"The officers responsible for
these raids on the treasures of
corporations have received their
.Iewards in unfettered manage
ment of life insurance corpora
tions; in the embarrassed raids
on the public through trusts
condemned by both common and
statute law; in refusal to punish
criminally the officers of railroad
and other corporations violating
! the laws, and in statutory per-
mission to manufacturing corpor-
ations to levy tribute on the peo-
pie.
There can be no hope of
checking the unlawful aggres-
sions of officers of great corpora
tions so long as they may thus
form a quasi-partnership with
the organization of the dominant
political party. For, in the hour
when the administrative official
seeks to punish the offender he
is reminded by the head of the
organization Of the magnitude of
the contributions Of the corpora
tiOns.
There is, however, something
worse if possible, than the escape
of such offenders from justice. 1t
is the gradual decentralization of
voters and the dulling of the pub
lie conscience caused by the eff
forts to make these vast sums of
money procure the ballots they
were intended to procure, cor
ruptly and otherwise. -E-Town

The next thing in order, sup
pose, is something of my sur
roundings, although it suits me
best to write and think of home:
Pensacola is a cosmopolitan city
of about $4,000 inhabitants and
has more natural advantages and
the deepest and best harbor of

and depart to and from all parts
OF the world. 1t is claimed here
that's Pensacola is the oldest city

and know of two.we will have
tomorrow. The fever situation
Thursday night was as follows:
New cases six, total to date 55,
total deaths nine, cases under
treatment fourteen, cases dis
charged thirty-two.
Quarantine Station is located
seven miles from Pensacola on
Santa Rosa Island, and according
