TREE AGENTS.

While possibly a little out of season, the following, as taken from the 1906 Fruit Report of l.. A. Goodman, secretary of the Missouri State Horticultural so. ciety, is we'll worth reproducing and we advise farmers and others interested to read and remember the advice given:
 "It is no new thing to find men offering fruit trees for sale among tanners, with the claim that their method of propagation IS the only one that produces good trees. They are usually able to show poor specimens of trees, propa- gated by the other fellows meth oG and far better trees propagat. ed by their method. This generally convinces the farmer and some farmers purchase from them, sometimes at exhorbitant prices. AS matter or fact, one may find good trees and bad trees propagated by any method. It should not matter much to the Missouri farmer how trees are propagated, provided they have made good growth in the nursery and are healthy trees, true 10 name. Budded trees or grafted are both good, providing they fulfill the above requirement.. The quality and appearance of the trees actually sold to them, and not the quality of the sample trees shown to make the sale is what should count. 1t is usually safe to steer clear of the agent who offers trees upon the merits of his propagation instead of up on the merits of the specimens that are to be delivered in filling the order.

VIOLENCE NOT TOLERATED.
Calls Upon Cttisens to Maintain order.

l Harrisburg, Pa. May 3.-0ov. Pen nypacker Wednesday Issued a procla-
 nation in reference to the industrial disturbances in Pennsylvania In which he calls upon all citizens to assist in the maintenance of the law and de- clares that violence will not be toler- ated.
 The governor in his proclamation calls upon ''all citizens by their con- duct example and utterances. whether printed or verbal, to assist in the maintenance of the law Continuing the proclamation says: Times of commotion furnish the test of the ca- pacity of the people for self-govern- ment Every man is entitled to labor and get for his labor the highest com- pensation he can lawfully secure There is no law to compel him to labor unless he so chooses, and he may cease to labor whenever he considers it to be to his interest t~ cease. The labor ing man out of whose efforts wealth arises has the sympathy of all disinter- ested people in his lawful struggles to secure larger proportion of the profit which results from his labor What he earns belongs to him and If he in- vests his earnings the law protects his property just as the rights of property of all men must be protected. He has no right to interfere with an- other man who may want to labor Violence has no place among us and will not be tolerated. Let all men in quiet and soberness keep the peace and attend to their affairs with the knowledge that it is the purpose of the commonwealth to see that the princi- ples herein outlined are enforced"

Plan to Defy Striking Miners.

Scranton, Pa, May 2.-Notwithstand- ing that many of the leading operators in this part of the anthracite field arc of the opinion that strike will not be declared, every company is making preparations to resume work in the mines in case a strike be declared al the convention which will be opened in this city on Thursday. The Dela- ware, Lackawanna & Western com. pany is laying plans for the operating of all its collieries and washeries as soon as a strike Is declared. This company produced about 180,000 tons during the past month, which is prob ably as much as the combined output of all the other companies. Many oth- CT companies have, 1t Is said. . large force of men engaged waiting for the result of the convention.

St. Petersburg, May 4-The imma. diate organization of the new cabina, is now anticipated All the ministers are understood to have placed the,, resignations in the emperor's hands Besides M. Goremykin as premier. the slate is said to include M. Stolypjp the governor of Saratoff, for ministe, of finance, Prince Galitzin, professor of physics at the academy of sciences minister of ways and communications M. von Kaufman, member of the council of the empire, minister of education; Prince Sherinsky Shakma. toff, procurator of the holy synod, and N. St. Chegloveroff, minister of ius. tice-all bureaucrats but rather color. less.
 The future policy of the government is so carefully guarded that the papers are non-plussed as to whether Count Witte's downfall means a reversal of the lever or the possibility of reach ing a common ground in parliament The majority of the papers attribute the fall of the cabinet to the bad re. ception of the draft of the fundament. al laws, and 1t also involves the with drawal of the latter, which is believed to be hopeful sign.
 The Strana Country says:
 "The passing of Witte, with whom parliament could not work opens the door to possible reapproachment of the representatives of the people,
 The Novoe vremya thinks the en- peror has 10 intention of entirely dis pensing with Witte's services and ex- presses the opinion that Witte will take the reins of the council of the empire and block radical action on the part of the lower house.
 The Nashashisn Our Time) while very suspicious, thinks it premature to imagine that Wittes departure is declaration of war against parlia- ment. It says:
 The government, never bold. had always been given to procrastination With honeyed words it seemed to postpone declaration of open hostil- ities as long as possible"
 The Sloyo regards the downfall of the Witte ministry as the natural se- quence of the unanimous protest of the press against the draft of the fun damental law.

SECRETARY TAFT AND THE
 PRESIDENCY.

The country ought to be pleas. cd to know that Secretary Taft is still entertaining Presidentia l aspirations. While 1t is known that he has long hoped for a seat on the Supreme bench, for which position he is eminently fitted, and to which the President is ready to appoint him, it is gratifying that for the present he remains Presidential possi- bility.
 Mr. Taft has achieved great distinction as a Cabinet secretary. He has shown remarkable versa tility, judgment and force. He has kept in closer sympathy and touch with President Roosevelt's policies than any other member of the official family. He IS ex- ceedlngly popular. The people feel that they know him, and they like what they know about him He Is not "standpatter" in the disparaging sense of that term. He is progressive in the sense that the President is progressive. He would make strong Presi- dent. It will be hard to choose a satisfactory successor to Theodore Roosevelt, and in view of this diff ficulty it ought to be source of satisfaction to the people that a man like Mr. Taft is at least re- ceptly in line.
