TROUBLE IN THE RANKS.
Old Line Suffrage Workers and the
w. C. r. u, Don't Gibe.

Old Line Suffrage Workers and the
w. c. T. U. Don't Gibe.
The equal suffrage element Of the
state is to hold convention at Aber-
deem at an early date in which they
expect to frame up line of campaign
for votes on their amendment at the
election next year. The meeting will
be attended by representatives of the
national organization. It is rumored
that the ladies are having troubles of
their own in the campaign, in which
the w. G. T. u. wants to drive the
band wagon, and the old-hne equal
suffrage workers want the campaign
cut loose from the temperance organ
lzation, and make the fight on a
straight-out suffrage campaign. It is
reported that the meeting at Aber-
deem Is expected to harmonic the diff
ferences which appear to exist. There
have been several conferences be-
tween the different elements in the
state since the adjournment of the
legislature, but they have not yet set
tied the vexed question, hence the Alb
erdeen meeting. During the cam
palgn before the legislature for the
suffrage amendment 1t went down be-
cause OF the division in the ranks Of
the suffrsgists. and was only pulled
out again by interests which do not
expect to support suffrage at the polls,
but found 1t q proposition which they
could use in the legislature to pull out
some OF the things which they could
not very we'll secure without again
bringing 1t out and pushing it through.

For TubercuIar Children.

Separate schools for tubercular
children may be established in Phila-
delphia in the near future. The new
school code specifically prescribes
that children suffering from tubercu-
losis cannot be admitted into the pub
lie schools and at the same time pro
vides for the compulsory attendance
Of all children between the ages of
six and sixteen years. It is the opin-
ion OF the educational officials that
the only solution OF the problem is
to rot aside special schools for the
use Of the tubercuiar pupils.

MANY ooPHERs KILLED.

County Commissioners Offered Bounty
for Killing Pest.
That the boys of Day county have
lost no time In killing gophers since
the county commissioners offered
bounty on these little animals, effect
I've from May / to June Is, is indi-
Gated by report just made by the
county auditor, who states that up to
this time since the first of May he has
checked In $4,000 gopher tails and
paid out about $1.15O in bounty. The
humiliation of the $4,000 gophers will
prevent damage to crops amounting
to much more than the bounty paid
for killing the gophers. Several
thousand more of the animals are ex-
pected to be killed before the pay.
ment of the bounty ceases on June Is.

lean vessels would probably suffer
from the long strain and that NO
good Of any kind could be accom-
plished.
NJ. Miyaoka, then counsellor of the
japanese embassy. when asked II the
feet would be invited to japan, said
that II undoubtedly would not be.
or course II the American vessels
passed the vicinity Of his country, he
said, they would probably call. but he
did not think It would be expedient
to advertise their coming at that par
ticular time.
In response to other questions per-
tanning TO the fleet M. Miyaoka, who
had practically taken the reins from
the hands of vlscount Aoki, the ia
panese ambassador temporarily, at
least, gave out an interview which he
recalled before 1t got into print. This
interview touched on the San Fran
cisco school question in a very indl-
rect way, and showed that the Japan
ese people might or might not well
come the feet, according to the pur-
pose for which 1t was being sent to
the Pacific. .......
IL is said that NJ. Miyaoka still
hoped at that time that the fleet
would not go to Japan, but that Wis
count Aoki advised him against max
ing any public statement on the mat
ter until the "air had been cleared
at the White House.
Attitude Suddenly Changed.
Diplomats say that this was the
attitude OF the Japanese when the
world cruise OF the feet was first sug-
gested, and that there was more con-
Germ at the Japanese foreign Office
than suspected. The President and
viscount Aoki were busy. however,
passing between
them almost daily. or a sudden the
attitude OF the Japanese seemed to
change, the Japanese ambassador,
who had kept silent on the subject,
said the Japanese were most anxious
to have the feet visit Japanese wa
tiers. that honors and celebrations
were awaiting the American naval
officers by their japanese brethren
and that the Mikado would make the
commander OF the feet the guest OF
the japanese nation.
From the White House the veil al.
so appeared to be lifted. The fleet

[ beg, through your valuable columns
to bring before the Public the following lines,
not as Complaints, but for the purpose Of
exposing facts aud warning those of my
countrymen and women who SO eagerly thirst
after the United States and who, therefore, are
willing to put up with and stomach any sort
Of treatment ut the hands Of those very par
ties who, for the moment at least, are servants
Of the travellers from here, and who earn
money from us in SO many different ways.
When looking at facts as they occur here
with the Steamers of the Quebec Steamship
Company, those having the command Of them,
and the unfortunate beings doomed to use
those ships to get to the Z. S. one is inyolun-
tariIy forced to see and admit that there is
decidedly something rotten, here or there
and somehow.
The facts are these.
A Naive of this Island, Miss May Prince,
having for some time been residing in New
York, wished to pay q visit to her Native
Land, and to see her sick father here she
came down with one Of the steamers Of that
we'll known line u few months age May Is
under positive Obligations to be back in New
York in the curly part Of May to resume her
duties thore, AMI therefore obtained a ticket
for herself and sister for $4,000 $4,000 for
herself and $4,000 for sister, from Mr.. A. L.
Outerbrjdge. New York, which ticket was
made out per s. S. "Parima" and signed in
New York and mailed to Der on the outward
voyage of Parma, she also procured q
ticket here for a younger brother to 40 on
with the two others when leaving here. Short
" after receiving the ticket from New York
she applied to Mr.. Auselm Fabio, who seems
to have assumed charge of the Agency
in this part Of the Island, although we
have never been able to find his name
on the Prospectus, and told him she

wheu he told bor she'd have to pay $4,000.
she then showed him the ticket giving her
the right Of returning by "Parima". the
ticket was signed BY Mr., \. L. Outerbridge,

was out Of order for Mr.. Oulerbridge from
New York to issue Il ticket for q pa senee
from here. The matter was laid before Mr..
Fabio's Boss, Mr.. r. L. Merwin, acting Con
sular Agent, and he too did TO the person who
writes and signs this, p sjtiyeIy declare that
Miss May Prince could not g with the
steamer Parima on this trip. Ho further
explained that Outerhridge has Il large Office
with q lot OF clerks aud because one of them
takes and sells Il ticket for Parma, without
stating the voyage for which it is intend
ed, that does not establish the right
to 20 with the steamer on his VOYAGE.

at all events as large a weight, as possible
on his field or hs plot, and from those
paragraphs We see That his success, other
thin1s being equal, depends a good deal on
the variety of yam chosen, and then again
on whether he stakes his y0ms. Only q
trial Of this method could tell what the
result would be, and now That The trial has
been made we see that the yam crop is
nearly doubled by the simple eXpedieut
Of supporting the vines.
We have never heard Of the plan being
tried here, and should think tAaf, for grow
es OF yams in plots ON the hill sldos, the
prospect Of being able to secure such u large
increase in the crop, by merely transferring
temporary support from the adjoining bush to
the yam plot, would be a very attractive
one. We shall hope to hear that one or
more Of our cultiyatUrs Will try it on the
crop to be planted this and next month and
will note the results.
There can be no doubt that our agricul-
turalists are indebted in many ways to the
British Imperial Department Of Agriculture.
Besides what has been done for Introducing
new varieties Of cane and the creation OF
the new industry Of cotton growing, there
are the current researches and experiments
which are carried or for the improvement
Of these two main industries as we'll IS other
experiments, such rs TINT roforred to above,
which bear on minor but still important
cultivatjons. In our last number we printed
an account Of an experiment in cotton seed
selection. That account is well worth read
ing by any co ton grower. DO we want to
raise bushes bearing fuzzy seeds and strong
cotton, and do we want to avoid raising
bushes bearing clean black seeds and poor
