ourselves and insects, except in a few
things, at present.
There is sliding scale about this
insect business that is a law, well un-
derstood by some, but not generallW
! suihclently recognized. 1t is fact thaa
any injury to plant from any caus9
renders it less able to resist attack bvN
insects and disease. Thus we find that
n plant with chewed leaves becomes
troubled with sucking insects and fun
gus diseases. Everyone ought to realize
this fact; it should be taught in our
schools and proclaimed from pulpits. 1t.
can be easily verified by observation
everywhere.
METHODS OF CONTROL.
There does not appear to be any eff
fort made to control the insects except
by melting mutiny in their ranks and\
getting them to devour each other
probably much good may be accom-
plished in this way but it does not ac-
complish the much needed results. MyF
own theory of breeding immunes hasF
not had the test of experience on IA
large scale and might be as unreliable
as is the predacious insect scheme.
Spraying and fumigating have ac-
complished results that have changed
failure to success on the mainland.
This is matter of record and the ex-
perience of others may be useful to u.s.
i advocate plain statement of our
case to the Department of Agriculture
asking for special assistance for our
selves and protection to the mainland.
The Japanese beetle and melon fly
were brought here. 1t is fair to as
sumo that they will find their way to
California and from there will march
to Washington, ID. c., and present a sad
story of devastation. 1t would be we'll
to take notice now and help us extermi
nate them here. Think of the loss in
crops and then the large fight to con-
troll on that wide area. If praying
! or swearing would be effective / would
be willing to do both, but it is fighting
we need to do. This country would be
gem if We could eliminate the de-
structive insects. The plants are sick
from injury by biting and sucking in
sects. You who know how roses bloom
ed and melons bore their rich ripe fruit
ought to be stirred to action. Look
at the algaroba that is hardly touched
with insects IL grows Justify, is not,

MAJ. POTTER TO
AUDIT ACCOUNTS
crrom saturday.s AavertIser.,

Major George c. Potter OF Spreckels
Bank was yesterday appointed by
Chairman Carter of the Fleet Entertain
ment committee to audit all the ac-
counts Of the various committees. The
accounts win be published in detail, and
at a later meeting the accounts and any
other matters will be finally acted upon.
The following letter was read at yes
terday's meeting:
July 2s, 1905
Honorable George W. Smith, Honolulu,
It. II.
NY dear Sir: In the absence of Mr..
Carter, chairman of the feet committee,
i take the liberty of addressing you as
next in line on that committee. ] un-
derstand that the members of the com.
mittee are considering or are about to
consider the question of resigning and
turning over the funds remaining in
their possession to myself OF some other
custodian. While it is only natural that
the members of the committee should
contemplate such action now that they
have fulfilled the duties for which the
committee was called into being, it
seems to me, inasmuch as there is a
balance of funds on hand and another
fleet of large size, the Pacific feet, is
expected here only about month from
now, that it would be better if the
committee and subcommittee would
continue to serve until after the visit
of that fleet and regard Themselves as
clothed with authority to act with rer'
erence to that visit. The members or
the committee and subcommittee are
now in better position to act by rea'
son of their experience than new com
mittees would be and, indeed, if new
committees should be appointed they
would almost of necessity include many
and perhaps most of the members of
the existing committees. 1t would seem
much better to avoid unnecessary diff.
ficulties, inconveniences and confusion
by attempting change. / hope there.
fore very much that the members of
the committees will see their way clear
to continue to serve in their present
capacities with reference to the expect.
ed visit of the Pacific fleet.

invitation to the American govern
ment to have the Atlantic battleship
fleet visit any port of Japan on its
homeward cruise around the world

The question of the acceptance or
declination of the invitation viii be
considered by the president and the
cabinet today. 1t is understood at
the White House this morning that
the invitation will probably be ac-
cepted.

|BISH0P FOWLER
PASSED AWAY.
(By Associated Press. }

New York, Mar. 20.-Bishop Chas-
H. Fowler, one of the greatest and
most noted men of the Methodist
Episcopal church. died this morning g
at his home in this city.
For the past two years Bishop.
Fowler had been in bad health, and
the end came not unexpectedly, for
his decline had been rapid for some
time. He had not held a conference
for more than two years.
Bishop Fowler had for many years
been regarded as the most brilliant
preacher the Methodist church had
since Bishop Simpson died He was.
a man of wonderful ability, a pull
pit orator with few equals and one
of the strongest and greatest bish-
ops the great church has ever pro-
duced.
Charles II. Fowler was born Au-
gust IL, 1897; consequently he was
in his list year. His career was q
notable one. For man years he,
was president of the Northwestern
University, and for great length
of time was editor of the New York
Christian Advocate. In 1884 he was
made a bishop, being at that time
one of the missionary sec staries or
the church. He began his minister
ial career in Chicago, and during his
earlier ministerial years served as
pastor of the leading churches ot-
both Chicago and New York City.
He was man of wonderful knowi-
edge and remarkable mental strength
and possessed one of the most 10y
able of personalities.
At one time Bishop Fowler was
engaged to be married to the late
Miss Frances Willard.
Bishop Fowler was personally
known to many of the Methodist
ministers of Colorado. In 1900 he
conducted the Colorado conference
of the church at Salida.
