TWO oEFIcIAL ORGANS.

Specializing upon what explanations
Republican senators will make to their
constituents for opposing the prohibit
ton bill, the Deseret News makes the
following editorial statement:
They cannot say that a deal was made
between the saloon interests and the par
ty, under certain circumstances. and that
the terms of the bargain had to be kept.
They cannot say that for the party knows
of no such compact, and none had any
authority TO commit the party to an alli-
ance with the liquor dealers, any more
than they have TO join it in the red district
interests.
OF course, the public has had its own
ideas about the matter. but the News
has always disclaimed being d Repub-
lican organ.
II it isn't. how can the News state so
solemnly that the party knows of no
such compact as the one reported to
have been made with the brewers?
How can the News declare with such
an air of fnality that mo one had any
authority to commit the party to an
alliance with the liquor dealers?"
Some time ago the News took the
Inter- Mountain Republican to task for
presuming to speak for the Mormon
people on the prohibition question.
Isn't the News afraid of being called
down by the Inter-MOuntain for deny
ing things for the Republican party?
Hasn't the Inter-Mountain as much
right to be a church organ as the News
has to be a party organ?
Let the reconvened convention to-
night consider these matters

In the last generation Tyler Cobb,

making a voyage to New York. Ac-
cordingly he sailed from Boston in a
small schooner.

countered and Mr.. Cobb became vio-

mustered up courage and strength to
look out upon the troubled waters.

Prehistoric California CITY,

What is considered to be the most
important archaeological find yet
made in the state of California took
place recently when man discovered
the ruins of prehistoric city In the
San Jacinto mountains, near the edge
Of the Cochella valley. There are
more than 700 well-preserved stone
houses, evidences Of paved streets and
large amount of earthenware. The
discoverer's attention was first at
tracted to the place by number of
gashes in the mountain side, and on
investigation he found a series of
heaped up stones. He approached
nearer and found the streets of an
ancient city, the houses being built
OF terraces. An old road was found
to lead from the city to the top Of
nearby peak, on which was found
the stone ruin Of what seemed to have
been a watch tower.-The Pathfinder.

DR.. j. A. Anderson, professor or
astronomy in the Johns Hopkins
University, in giving his views re-
gardinging the statement made by
Professor William Henry Pickering,
of Harvard, that the planet Mars can
be communicated with by a set Of
mirrors, said:
II really do not think that Profess
sor Pickering's statement has been
received in the light that it was in
tended. AS 1t stands, 1t Is perfectly
plausible, but as for the actuality of
ever communicating with the plan
ct, as M. Camille Flammarion says,
that is another question.
1T is highly possible to construct
an arch of sufficient intensity to con-
vey beam of light to Mars. A light
as strong as that of the sun would
carry to the planet, so that If we can
construct a reflector strong enough
to send sunlight in its original
strength through the heavens, the
problem so far will have been solved.
Whether or not there would be
anybody or any form of life on the
star to signal us back again is an
other question. There is certainly
no evidence now of any such a fact.
While the theory of the planet being
habitable is generally accepted,
whether it is inhabited has never
been solved, and at present there are
no indications that it will be solved,
at least in the near future.
Suppose the planet is inhabited,
although the concensus of opinion
here is negative, is it logical to sup
pose that the Martians would be
ready to take or notice a message
just at a time corresponding to that
when it was sent from the earth?
AS is we'll known, Mars is practically
the only planet that shows any signs
of being physically habitable. 1t
has an atmosphere of its own, and,
moreover, Is capable of being stud
led, which cannot be said of Venus,
which is even closer to the earth.
That planets face is never seen, be-
ing covered with dense clouds. 1t is
not known what the temperature of
Mars may be, or whether or not 1t
would support life. Professor Ever
ett Lowell, director of Lowell Obser-
vatory, has done much work on the
study of Mars, and has reached the
conclusion that it is both habitable
and inhabited.
This is a question which may be
solved in the future, but SO far as
Professor Pickering's recent state
ment goes, will say again that I
think it has been taken to mean
more than it's author intended, ex-
ceeding the scope of its patent plaus-
ibility."

on the roots or branches, and 1t also
keeps these places In about the same
condition as sores on animals.
Where the insects are on the roots
the best thing to do is to remove the
soil enough to expose them, and at
once cover the infested places with
powdered tobacco or tobacco dust,
which In itself is valuable fertili-
ger, and then replace the soil, and
you may be sure the pests will be
killed. Remember that powdered to-
bacco is better than tobacco stems
for this purpose.
If you do not wish to go to the
trouble and expense of spraying the
trees for the Woolly Aphis, and If
they have no San Jose Scale, or other
pests, that would demand winter
spray with contact insecticides, such
as lime-sulfur wash, you can treat
this pest efficiently and much cheaper
by simply using paint brush, and
painting the spots where it occurs
with a contact insecticide, such as
one pound of whale oil soap dissolved
in one gallon of water, or extra strong
lime-sulfur solution, or twenty per
cent. kerosene emulsion, or such
other materials as are efficient and
satisfactory for San Jose Scale"

That Horned-Tail Snake.

There are still inquiries concern
ing that offer of fifty dollars for a
specimen of horned-tail snake,
which was made by Professor H. A.
Surface, State Zoologist, Harrisburg.
In the Professors mail the other day
there was letter from South Eaton,
Wyoming county, Pa, containing the
following information:
1--WE have in our possession snake
we call horned-tail snake, which
has the appearance of being very
poisonous. 1t has no teeth, the only
means of defense that we can see
about it being horn-like bone at the
end of the tail about an inch long"
Following is Professor Surfaces
reply:
81 have received your letter stating
that you have in your possession a
Horned-Tail Snake, or at least a
snake that has horn-like bone on
the end of its tail, about one inch
long. 1t is true that l offered fifty
dollars reward for Horned-Tail
Snake, if such proved to be anything
else than some of the known species
of serpents, such as the Blowing
Viper or the Milk Snake, commonly
called the House Snake, or some
other already well-known kind. This
was to prove or settle the contro-
versy of the existence of Horned
Tail Snake. Such belief was COM
mon throughout the country, but not
properly established.
"If you are willing to send me your
specimen by express, will pay the
expressage on it, and if it does not
prove to be some ordinary serpent,
such as we already know, and should
prove to be such a thing as could
properly be called a Horned-Tail
Snake, l shall pay you reward for
it.
II hope this makes clear the facts
of the reward which has been offered,
and which has not yet been taken up
by any genuine specimen submitted" ;"

Dealing With the Woolly Aphis.

Some infested apple twigs were re-
ceived from Franklin county at the
Division of Zoology of the Pennsyl-
vania Department of Agriculture,
and the person sending them was of
the opinion that the trees were in
tested when they left the nursery.
In reporting upon these twigs, State
Zoologist Surface wrote as follows:
The apple twigs which you sent
are infested with an insect known
as the Woolly Aphis. It is not the
regular Apple Aphis but a worse
pest, for the reason that 1t feeds not
only on the bark of twigs but also
on the roots. You are liable to re-
ceive these pests from any nursery
men, or they may come to your trees
after you get them from the nursery.
al would recommend that you
spray your trees soon, with any good
contact insecticide. such as is rec
commended for San Jose Scale. Lime
sulfur wash will do for this. Be sure
that the spray liquid is blown into
all knots and cracks where these
pests inhabit.
"The worst feature about the
Woolly Aphis is that 1t attacks the
roots, and this you can not we'll de-
termine without making special ex'
animation for 1t. It produces knots
which keep the sap from howinl
weil through them, whether they b.
