ABOUT LIBRARY BOOKS.

Things are going a little wrong In
connection with the library books OF
our towns. Suppose we stop our work
right now and get them Strengthened
out again. Prof. McComb telephones
over that there were books missing
from both the High school and gym
nasium libraries. He would like to
have them brought in, that they may
be properly checked up before the
school term CLOSES.
The free travelling library at the
room Of our county superintendent of
schools, is waiting for exchange of
cases, because some of the books are
out This has been one Of the best
years in the history Of this library
work, we have lost no books to date,
and feel assured these missing ones
Will be returned but some OF the pat
rons are anxious for the new case and
this waiting woul dnot be necessary II
the books would be returned. we
kindly suggest that each person who
has used books from either of the
three libraries mentioned. will look
through their own COLLECTION at home,
and see II possibly there has been a
delay in returning books. Please do 1t
now.

AS TO BRADY.

Having sounded notes Of warning
from time to time as to the candi-
dacy of James H. Brady for governor
up to the time when the party Of this
county closed the discussion of the
merits of the suject by electing dele
gates and instructing them for Brady,
we take pleasure in leaving the sub
ject where the convention placed It.
Having done our plain duty in the
matter by opposing his machine
methods, opposing the double con-
vention and opposing the instruction
of delegates, we leave the RESPONSE
bility with the party, and yield to the
mandate. of the convention.
Time will prove whether our posi-
ton has been right or the position
of the party and the rest of the press
was wrong, and we place our judg-
ment in the balance against theirs,
though we shall work for the sue
cess Of the party, obeying their will
and leaving the responsibility on the
shoulders of those who assumed It.
We promise to give them lat the
end of two years, a little arraignment
for their mistakes, or frank ac-
Acknowledgement of our own mistaken
judgment.

, CANADIAN JUSTICE.

Tie way the British and Canadian
authorities administer justice in the
wilds OF Manitoba, British Columbia
and the Northwest Territory ought tc
be an example to the United States
When crimes are committed in that
region no matter how wild 1t may be
how trackless or what obstacles may
be heaped in the way the criminals
are nun down, caught carried back,
tried and IL found guilty are punished
and so well is this understood that the
toughs going from this side throw
away their weapons before they cross
the line. This fact alone ought to be
a notice to American officers and to
the government Of the United tSates,
that there is an efficiency beyond the
border that Is not known on this side.
A gentleman, now resident here, was
long in British Columbia, the North
west Territory and Alaska, and was re-
Gently recOunting some Of the incl
dents which he was personally cogni-
zant Of. Two Indians who had been
hired by two white men for guiding
over some rapids when reaching the
begin refused to go further without
more pay. When. the increased pay
was rendered them, they still refused

conceivable obstruction, but finally ran
them down. arrested them, took them
into camp. tried. convicted and hung
them.
The other case was the murder Of
two men In their sleep, by three ruff
fans, for their money. Two Of the
murderers went one way and one an
other. The two were soon taken in,
but the third was by that time q long
way off. The murder was near Daw-
son. The outlaw was followed to
Nome, then to Seattle. then to Japan,
and he was finally caught at vladivos-
tok, carried back, taken to where the
murder was committed. tried and all
three were hanged. The secret was
that those officers carried with them
the regular letter of credit on which
they could draw money in any Canad-
ian post or in any northwestern post
of the United States. That means
thoroughness which cannot be thwart-
ed or overcome. And when a culprit
is caught and the proof Of his guilt
is clear that fixes 1t. There are no
pleas OF insanity no new trials, no
lengthy arguments, no motions for de-
lay--the work is done with neatness
and dispatch.
The result Is that order is maintain

because of its baroness and sickly
appearance.
The best way to study the woody

the orchards and let them observe
the conditions of the living grow.
| ing trees. After workingout some
thing of the life of the insect and the
damage done by it they will look for
its natural friends and enemies. Two
very interesting features will be dis
covered regarding the conditions fav-
orable to aphid life and reproduc-
ton. One of the aphids' firmest
friends is the ant. The ant Is es-
pecially friendly to that species of
aphid which secretes honeydew. In
fact the ant goes SO far In. his friend
ship as to carry the eggs of the plant
lice home and safely keep them dur
ing the winter and then in the spring
return the young ones to places of
suitable food. The aphids derive
another advantage from their woody
coverings. This excresence is very
distasteful to the birds and it thus
renders the insects immune from
bird interference.
However, in examining the bark,
the children will find that the aphids
have many natural enemies. Lady
birds and various other beetles will
often be found busily devouring
whole clusters of the plant lice.
But even though the lady birds
are plentiful. 1t Is seldom that they
completely exterminate the aphids.
So II the orchardists are to save their
apple and other fruit trees artificial
remedies must be resorted to.
Here a valuable field for expert
uniting is opened to the children.
They are taken into an orchard
which is infested. Each child Is al
loted tree so that he may work
independently. Various washes or
sprays are prepared and given out
to the different pupils, each child
experimenting with at least one
wash. Tobacco stepped in water,
kerosene and soap suds mixed, soap
suds, paris green, lime water, form
aldehyde solution and red precipi-
tate. are all successfully handled by
pupils. Precautions should be taken
in the working with the paris green,
formaldehyde and red precipitate as
they are poisonous.
Each child applies his wash and
then observes the result, noting
whether 1t Is successful and how far
so. Then at class discussion the
results are discussed and compared
and opinions given as to which IL
the most practical and efficient rem
edy.
Glass experiments are given in the
use Of cyanide of potassium for fu-
migation purposes. On no account
are the children to handle this poi
son as It is very dangerous one.
A large canvas or cloth net is made
and hole dug around the roots Of
some badly infested tree. The mix
