To the Editor of the Kick Column:A
 ] have read with exceeding interest the letter in Your Kick Column yhii morning signed by Election CouEt' relative to the unworthy disposition &f some of the state papers to prejudge Mir, George L. Foxs charges againstN Mr, Liley before even they have been I aired in court As Election Court says, these pape should realize that they should not take 1t for granted that the plaintiff Is a rogue in this case any more than in the case of a plaintiff in any of our courts which are contln- ually meeting, The fact that we have never had an election court before makes no difference on this score
 But what Is worse than the disposi- ton certain of our own New Haven papers have taken on this subject? [ should think they would be ashamed to ridicule thir fellow townsman, Mir, Fox, in this way when there is no just reason for it. I believe fl Is cowardly to say. as has been said, that Be cause Mir. Fox accuses Is not reason why minded men should conclude that thore has been violation of law" and then go on to show where Mr. Fox has brought charges in the past and has failed 10 prove them. Is this the way we are to encourage men to take an active part in civlcs--to make fun of them every time they raise their hands?
 I [ Ia, a,,t tp the blush as a New Havener to read in the Ansonia Sentinel an answer to this sort of talk. It Is highly pertinent and reveals q higher type of citizen ship than some of our New Haven editors can boast, fear. Let me quote follows:
 "The fact that there have been four failures to convict and that the fifth failure may be in sight does not ex- cuse Connecticut citizens from de- sire to have clean elections, conductor in accordance with the corrupt practices act. nor does it excuse Mir. Fox, or any one else from taken legal action to correct alleged corrupt practices if they have reasonable evidence that such haxe been committed. The fact that the petition of MT. Fox has been grant ed by the superior court indicates he has sufficient evidence to warrant an investigation, If 1t should be followed by another fiasco would tha be a req son for there never being another att tempt to keep operative one of the most needed laws that Connecticut has ever adopted? No. Even if there are six, seven or seventy times seven fias- cos the duty of citizens and of the state concerning the law and its en- forcement remains unchanged"
 Keep your courage up, Brother Fox, There are some strong hearts in New Haven still, and they want to see you have fair show at every turn as well as the gsptkmen you are proceeding against. l., II. T.

To the Fruit Growers Associations
of Mesa, Delta and Montrose Coun-
ties:
Your committee, chosen to inves
tigate the various frost preventative
devices and to ascertain the cheapest
and most practicable safeguard
against frost damage to fruit as appli-
cable to our particular section and
climatic conditions on the Western
Slope of Colorado, have, as per prev
ious arrangement and instructions,
visited Redlands, Riverside, Los An
geles, Fresno, San Jose and other out
lying sections in California, where it
seemed most advisable to investigate,
and your committee can truthfully
affirm that. after investigating the
various methods and means of pre-
venting frost damage to fruit,
throughout the fruit growing district
of California, which we visited, we
saw no individual demonstration of
what can be done by heat to prevent
frost damage. better than the expert
ments of a few of our own energetic
citizens on the Western Slope of Colo
rado, during last April, and while un-
prepared and working under adverse
conditions, they have achieved sue
cess, and partial success. thus having
blaZed the way for others to follow.
They deserve the thanks of our own
people for their faith, courage and
energy.
In support of our own expert
ments last spring, your committee
has a large accumulation of corrob-
orative evidence which leads us to
believe that there is positively no
necessity for a grower to lose his
fruit crop under the degree of cold
experienced here last spring.
I'VE were somewhat surprised to
learn that the growers in California
do not generally resort to smudging.
Gas they call it, even in the sections
where the lowest temperatures are
find in these sections few live, pro-
gressive, energetic men who have
practised smudging with various de-
vices and materials for several years.
and always with perfect success. We
located and Investigated number of
int taresting and successful expert
ments, one or two which it seems
pertinent 10 speak of. The superin-
tendent OF seven hundred acre or
chard of citrus fruits related to us
his experience with certain section
of this orchard. the fruit on which
was invaria bly, killed by severe freez-
ing, and the syndicate owning the
same had ordered these trees grubbed
out and the ground seeded TO alfalfa.
The superintendent begged one year
more to try and save the crop, which
he successfully did by burning oil.
Since then he has discarded oil and is

Quoted any series of experiments as

coal or Oil and therefore recommend

logical that these experiments be con-
Quoted in our own countries, and
with the particular material at hand 4,
which we shall be compelled to use,
and We therefore recommend that
our different associations, Immediate
ly appoint committees who shall at
once proceed to conduct a series of
experiments with the materials we
have at hand with the view of ascer-
tanning and recommending to our
growers, the best and cheapest de-
vice for burning either coal or oil,
either method. This inform alton was
impossible to obtain in California,
many of their methods, were crude,
their material, both coal and oil are
different than ours, which would
render eXperime rnere question
able, when applied to a different
grade of material here. AS there
must be an expenditure of many
thousands of dollars by our growers
in preparing to fight it seemed de-
sirable, before advising this eXpendi-
ture to obtain corroborative evidence
to our own experiments in protect
ing fruit in a low degree frost.
such corroborative evidence we
have in plenty and it is our firm be
lief that if any grower in western
Colorado loses q fruit crop from
frost, with the same degree of cold
we experienced last April, it would
be because he is unwilling or unable
to avail himself of the material at
hand for firing and an intelligent use
of the same.
