MORRIS OUT OF MUTUAL.
Philadelphia Banker Resigns Be-

[Rv Telegraph to The Tribune ]

lBy Telegraph TO The Tribune ]
Philadelphia. Feb 24-The retirement Of Ef-
ingham B. Morris the well known banker of
this city. who announced his resignation as trus-
tee Of the Mutual Life Insurance Company to-
day. was step long contemplated. according
TO Mr.. Morris. His reasons are set forth in this
statement. given out by Mr.. Morris this after
noon:
resigned as a trustee of the Mutual Life be.

a nonresident to keep in touch with details of
the management of corporation having its
Office in New-York. whose policy must neces
day 10 day. I remained in the board after the
recent deplorable events only long enough to
vote in support of every measure advocated by
the Truesdale investigating committee.
To show how impossible It is for any one
living at a distance to know much about such
a company as the Mutual. until the names were
brought out in the investigation l did not even
know of the existence of Mr.. Thebaud. Mr.. Ray
mond. Mr. Fields or Mr.. Hamilton. Their names
were never mentioned at any board meeting.
and never heard of them their relations to
the company.
1t seems foolish for a man TO serve on q large
board where, naturally, he can have no voice IN
the actual management by reason of his alb
sence and can only hear of decisions of policy
after they are made. No such director be
called on TO do more than support officers whom
he supposes to be honorable men, and who are
IN charge of the business; he can pass upon
such questions only are brought before the
board for action. the officers abuse this trlIst
and do not bring matters before the board the
directors can by possibility have any knowl-
edge of them. In the case Of the Mutual these
officers have been dispensed with and the courts
will decide the merits of the matter. 1t has
passed out of the control Of trustees and there
fore there was no reason for to remain
longer on the board.

The Railroad PARTY.

There can be no doubt in the
mind of any progressive citizen
who has taken the trouble to fol-
low the actions of the republican
state. convention in selecting the
candidates whom they now ask
you TO- vote; for, or to read the re-
publican state platform, and study
the personel ofothe state ticket,
that the railroads of Kansas are
very anxious for that ticket to be
elected.s
1t is also growing more. appar-
ent every day that the course of
that convention is mot in accord
with the. rank and file of the re-
publican farmers Of Kansas. As
evidence of the 'truthfulness of
this statement, those. who heard
Judge Ed. Madison, candidate for
Congress andMr. Fitzgerald can
didate for Lieutenant Governor at
Hoisington last Saturday will re-
member that both Of those gentle
men took as the platform upon
which they are making their races
the Ford county platform; and
that neither of them mentioned as
the tenets of the party for this
year the republican state platform.
They were ominously silent upon
that.
Mr.. Fitzgerald admitted in his
opening address that some Of our
people are making it hot for us,
charging that | was the candidate
Of the service corporation 1--WE
quote his exact language.) Judge
Madison also seemed to think it
necessary to devote. a great deal
of time to the defense of Mr.. Fitz-
gerald, whom everyone knows was
the railroad candidate as against
Judge Ansnl R. Clark, for the re-
publican nomination for Lieuten-
ant Governor.
You will notice this during the
campaign this fall: The republi-
can speakers and candidates will
not dare to stand squarely on
their state platform, but will point
to the resolutions of their variou.
county conventions as their article
of faith. %

TIMELY BEE TALK.
Various Helpful Suggestions for the
Man Who Has Bees for Pleas
ure or Profit.

When nectar is abundant in the
fields, and your bees hesitate about
starting work in the sections but crowd
the brood nest with it, try the follow
ing plan:
When the combs are sealed at the
top in the brood chambers, mash these
cells at the top of the brood frames
with table fork; shut up the hive,
put the sections on, and then rap on
the hive. Do this just before dusk, and
you will find the bees nicely at work
there the next morning
1t is not difficult to persuade any col
ony of bees, OF proper strength, TO
work in the section; but do it by rap
ping on the hive and driving them up.
They fill themselves with honey and
go up there and work. You have per-
haps scarified enough cells so that they
will have no cells except those to put
the honey in. The honey will have to
be taken out by the bees. 1t is forcing
process, as you might say, but it Sc
cures the result.
A colony with abundant entrance for
air is less inclined to swarm than it
otherwise would be. Raising the hive
by putting an inch block under each
corner, and leaving the hive open all
around, is an excellent method for CIV
ing plenty of air. But do not expect
that the plan OF giving plenty OF air
will entirely suffice. to keep bees from
swarming,
| have used various methods Of
transferring, but have given the fol-
lowing the preference. These direc-
tons will be applicable only to those
who have bees in frame hives.
If the bees to be transferred are in
a common box, and the combs have moi
been built down to the bottom, cul
down the box to the depth of the
comb, turn the bottom side up, and
put spacing sticks between the comb;
TO prevent contact with each other
Then place one of the standard hive
bodies on top, closing up all surplu;
openings on the sides or ends. Nov
go to a colony of bees and remove 4:
frame of honey, and containing egg
and larvae; place this in the vacan
body over the box, and fill up witt
drawn comb or foundation. In few
days, if you keep watch, you will flint
the queen in the upper story; thel
you quietly slip a queen excluder be
tween this part and the old box. II
