| have the pleasure of giving to
the readers of The Ranch an addi-
tional letter from Prof. G. V. Piper,
dated September 10th. The letter is
so plain that it commends itself to
every sensible person:
Dear Mr.. Walden 1 have just re-
turned from three weeks trip, and
find on my desk your letter of the Sth
inst l am very glad, indeed, to learn
of the great interest you take in this
matter of maintaining the fertility and
mechanical condition of the orchard
Soils and 1 am sure that your advocacy
of this in the columns of The Ranch will
do very much towards bringing it into
of these legumes as green manure crops
for orchards, L think, is very clearly
shown by the fact that the great major
ity of the orchardists in California have
now adopted the practice. Of course In
any experiments of this kind, it is diff
fcult to determine exactly how much
good is done by such green manure
crops One fact, however, is exceeding
clear viz: that the soil is put in much
better mechanical condition, and that
the amount of water needed for irriga-
ton may be greatly reduced 1t is also
certain that a considerable amount of
nitrogen is added yearly to the soil by
these crops and this results in increased
vigOr to the trees. 1t is also definitely
known that winter cover crops keep the
soil considerably warmer than it would

KEPBURN'S BILL
IS INTRODUCED

Washington, Jan. 5.-Representa-
tive Hepburn's rate regulation bill
was introduced today. 1t is largely
the same as Senator Delivers bill,
which has been introduced in>the SEN
ate. 1t represents the ideas of Colo
mel Hepburn, Senator Dolliver, Attor-
ney General Moody, and eminent at.
torneys who have been consulted and
conferred with. II undoubtedly has
the presidents approval, and Is along
the lines of the presidents message.
As to rate making, however, by Col.
onel Hepburn's bill the Interstate
commerce commission is required,
after determining rate unreasonable
or unjust, to prescribe to replace 1t
"just and reasonable and fairly re-
munerative maximum rate or rates,
charge or charges"
Substantially It does not differ from
the Dolliver bill In this. as the latter
empowers and requires the commits
sion to fix "a just and reasonable
maximum rate or rates, charge or
charges" In the regulation Of pri-
vate cars, this Is met by broadening
the definition of transportation IN
the Interstate commerce law so as to
clearly include private cars, just az
In the Dolliver bill. The same applies
to terminal railroad abuses, which
are met by the broadening OF the
meaning of the word, railroad. The
midnight tariff evil is reached In the
Hepburn bill by preventing any
change in rates duly established ex-
cept after thirty days public notice.
On this matter Senator Delivers bill
follows the present law, which re-
quires ten days notice OF an ADVANCE
and three days notice Of reduction.
An important feature of both the
Hepburn and Dolliver bills Is section
l6, which Is a revision of section 16
of the present law. Inc purpose is
to facilitate suits brought to recover
damages from carrier for violation
of the order of the commission and OF
the interstate commerce act. The
law is now a dead letter. On this
matter under the Hepburn bill and the
Dolliver bill alike 1t Is provided
that the finding and order of the
committee shall be prima facie EVIL
dence of the facts therein stated"
and also that the petitioner shall
not be liable for costs in the circuit
court nor for costs at any subsequent
stage of the appeal" The petitioner
IL he finally prevails, is also to be al.
lowed reasonable attorneys fee as
part OF the costs Of the suit.

THE WEEK IN CONGRESS

Washington. Jan. 4.-Senate.-Rob.
ert M. LaFo,lette. Of Wisconsin, was
presented and took the oath as sen.
ator. A magazine article by Mr.. New.
lands was ordered printed. A reso-
luton calling for information regard.
Ing affairs in Santo Domingo was pre-.
sented by Mr. Tillman. who made an
unsuccessful effort to secure immed-
late consideration. The merchant
marine shipping bill was laid before
the senate.
House.-The cause OF the Filipino
was advocated on The floor Of the
house by the republican leader, Mr..
Payne, who presented the views of
the majority of the ways and means
committee on tEe Philippine tariff
bill. reducing the duties on sugar and
tobacco to 25 per cent OF the Dingley
tariff rates, and admitting other pro-
ducts OF the islands to the United
States free Of duty. Acting on q
printed charge that members are
sending libraries and all manner OF
articles free through the mails, the
house instructed its postoffice com.
mittee to make an investigation as to
whether members are abusing the
franking privilege.
Washington, Jan. s. House. -
Champ Clark democracy" was ex.
pounded to the delight and entertain
ment of the house for three hours to-
day by Mr.. Clark of Missouri. and
constituted the feature OF the depare
on the Philippine tariff bill. Mr..
Clarx's speech took wide range and
he labeled his political beliefs as
above in answer to question as to
what kind Of a democrat he really
was. He talked OF the Philippines
and favored the pending bill: he dis
cussed the general tariff question anu
in particular the German tariff stu.
alton. He reviewed William ]. Bry.
ans record on silver and paid his re-
spects In characteristic oratory to re-
publican leaders. He ascribed fu.
ture greatness to what he termed the
great "standpat' disciples and de-
clared that one OF these, Secretary
Shaw, whose record as secretary of
the treasury included, he said, classl-
flying frogs legs as poultry and ponies
as household articles" for the col.
lection Of revenue, was logical re.
publican presidential possibility un-
less the mantle should fall on the
"gray and grlzzled speaker. Uncle Joe
Cannon"
Speaking from the forum In front
OF the speakers desk, Mr.. Clark ad-
dressed many Of his positive assei.
tons directly to the republican mem
bers. He was interrupted many
times and these Interruptions gener-
ally resulted in responses that do
lighted both sides.

The Washington officials who deal in
the statistics of manufacturers hold
that there is every apparent indica-
ton that the prosperous showing of
the last Year is to be more than du-
plicated In the year that IL to come.
It Is fairly well established fact
that coming unhappy events cast long
shadows before. The students of the
situation look not only at the matter
immediately In hand. but they look at
all the conditions OF commercial life:
the STATE of the country's finances,
the likelihood OF tariff changes, the
possibilities OF commercial wars. and,
in fact, at all other things upon which
government agents make reports.
They look at all these things before
they attempt anything Of prophecy,
and when they do consent to prophecy
they do not put 1t In black and white
because there Is always chance Of
the arising Of something hitherto un-
known; but they do consent to give
an expression of their belief In the
future, funded upon the best knowl-
edge which is given to them from all
available sources. II Is only the crop
expert who in the winter, the time
of the death of vegetation, refuses to
say one word as to the future, for the
time of long distance weather fore
casts has not yet arrived.
The view of the coming year as It
touches exports and imports and the
manufacturers of the country is to be
expressed only by the much-used and
apparently well-liked word, rosy.
Should there be those who look
only to the purse as the standard Of
peoples happiness. 1t may be said
that there is more money in circula-
ton among the inhabitants OF the
r,ted States to-day than ever there
has been efore. Despite bank troub-
les here and there the financial insti-
tutional solidity and prosperity Of the
country seems to have foundation
Of rock which cannot readily be worn
away. The light shines ahead.

DISASTERS DURING THE YEAR.
Earthquake In Italy the Worst calam-
ity Recorded In 1905.

Earthquake In Italy the Worst calan.
ity Recorded In 1905.
Disasters were numerous during
1905, though there was no calamity
involving such great loss OF life or
such horrors as accompanied the burn
ing of the Iroquois theater at Chicago
in 1908, or of the steamer General Slo-
cum at New York in 1904. Leaving
out of consideration the Russo-Japa-
nese war, the greatest disaster of the
year occurred in Calabria, Italy, where
400 lives were lost through an earth
quake Sept. s. Nearly as many deaths
were recorded as due to the collapse
of partially constructed reservoir
near Madrid, Spain, April 8.
The most serious disaster in the
United States was the tornado in
Texas, April 20. At Laredo 100 lives
were lost. A tornado in Oklahoma,
May II, caused nearly as many deaths
in the town of Sidney. A fire in a
shoe factory at Brocton, Mass, re-
sulting from an explosion. March 20,
also resulted in 100 deaths.
Railroad accidents probably have
not caused so many deaths as in 1904,
but several serious ones occurred dur
ing the past year. In collision on
the Western Maryland railroad, twen-
ty-eight miles from Baltimore, June
1, twenty-three persons were killed
In each of three other wrecks twenty
lives were lost, and two wrecks
caused twelve deaths each.
BY an explosion in the Rush Run
and Red Ash coal mines, near Thur.
mond, w. Va, March 10, twenty-four
lives were lost. A gas explosion In =
mine at Ziegier, H., April 13, en-
tombed fifty miners. July IL more
than 100 miners were killed by an
explosion in the pits at Wattstown,
Wales.
or disasters on the water the most
serious was the wreck of the South
ampton Railway company's steamer
Hilda, off st. Malo. English channel,
in which 100 lives were lost. The
explosion of the boiler of the United
States gunboat Bennington in San
Diego harbor, July Fl. caused the
death Of sixty of the crew.

YEAR AS SEEN BY BRADsTREEr.
Period Of Heavily Increased Purehas.
Ina Power.

Period OF Heavily Increased Purehas.
Ing Power.
The year Just ending has been one
Of almost boundless activity, accord.
ing to Bradstreet's. It was a period
Of rich rewards to agriculture, though
not OF uniformly record yields; OF
abundance of employment for labor
and of few serious strikes; of build.
ing and constructive activity In all
lines; of enormously enlarged bank
clearings totals, and OF striking small
failure damage, considering the I'm.
mense business done and the unpre-
cedented number engaged therein.
That 1t was, on the whole, year
of heavily increased public purchas-
ing power seems certain. in view OF
the fact that commodity prices were
maintained at record high levels.
Continuing the report states:
"The multitude of records broken
shows that new guideposts have, in
deed been set up. The revival which
began in the last half of 1904, far
from spending it's force, as was pre-
dicted in the early part of 1905, grew
as the year advanced. The CONNER
cial, financial and industrial move
ment surged forward, weather draw.
backs and disclosures of financial rot
| tenness in high places falling to stem
the upward trend. Disregard of pre-.
cedents was, perhaps, best illustrated
| in the persistent advance OF securi-
ties despite high money prices, and
the tendency to discount prosperity
was irresistible"
Speaking OF conditions in the lat
| ter part of the year 1t Is stated:
I'm September car shortages began
TO affect traffic and collections, clear
ings reached new high figures, while
failures and liabilities for nine months
were below 1904. Lifting of southern
guarantees gave zest to southern
trade. which was further helped BY
high cotton quotations when me
movement was heaviest. In the last
quarter open weather favored 'out.
door activity, but retarded retail
trade, which was also hampered by
farmers holding grain and cotton ami
the car congestion, which likewise de-
layed collections. Stock speculation.
though lacking marked public partici.
patton and displaying manipulative In
fuences, was of large volume at rec
ord prices, despite high money, in
fluenced by active trade and dis
turbed foreign markets. Iron and
steel outputs advanced; ore sales.
clearings and staple prices all scored
high levels In December"
OF the outlook for the new year the
report says:
''If satisfaction with the past and
confidence In the future are at all re.
liable guides, 1906 Is likely to equal,
If indeed 1t does not surpass, the year
drawing to close. The volume OF
orders booked ahead exceeds any pre-
vious year in the country's history,
and high prices as yet seem to exer-
else no effect upon consumptive de-
mand. Iron and steel of all kinds are
heavily sold ahead, as are also shoes,
cotton and wooden goods, lumber,
hardware and myriad of other prod
ucts. Wheat enters the winter in ex.
cellent condition and with an en-
larged area. Predictions as to 1906
building are even more sanguine than
year ago."

MURDERS HAVE BEEN FREQUENT

The number of hcmicides and
deaths by violence of every kind in
1905, as reported by telegraph, shows
a considerable increase over 1904, be-
ing 1922, as compared with S,482 in
the latter year. This record is brought
down to Dec. 81, so that the COM
plete record for the year would have
been slightly In excess of the above
figures. The startling feature of the
record is the increase OF murders com.
mitted by highwaymen, burglars and
that particular class of criminals, the
number being $50, as compared with
AGA in 1904. 406 in 1903, 1893 in 1902.
and 103 in 1901.
