WILD SWAMP POTATOES.

The swamp potato tSolanum comer- soniD. which grows wild in Uruguay. has lately been cultivated in rrance. where it has produced a variety with violet tubers. The new variety is characterized by extraordinary pro- ductiveness. resistance to disease and frost. and the production of large aerial tubers in the axils of the leaf stalks German potato growers. how ever. find the new variety so similar to the long known variety. Paulsea's s Blue Giant. that they are inclined to think that the latter has. innocently ar designedly. been exploited in France as a novelty. The same opinion is held by a prominent English potato grow CT The two sorts have also been cul- tivated side by side at the experiment station ef a Swedish society for the improvement of moors. where they ap- peared to be identical in foliage. flow CTS and tubers. The swamp potato, however. proved less productive than the old Blue Giant. and its most strongly emphasized peculiarities. an tipathy to lime and preference for marshy soil. could not be detected. Similar results were obtained on an experiment plantation in Silcsia.

HARMLESS, NECESSARY CAT.

Archbishop Glennon says wife and d parrot and an apartment do not constitute a home. But why not 8 cat instead of the parrot? The cat is the sign of a home. Exclusion of cats from apartment houses is one of the surcst signs that such places arc not and cannot become homes. The parrot is an extraneous bird. not essential in home life. often disrup- tive of 1t. but the cat is of the home part inseparable.

INITIATIVE AND REFERENDUM

1t is. evident that if the initiative and
referendum bill passes at all it will pass
with the provision including constitu-
tional amendments. That matter was
tested out on the floor of the senate and
bv a pretty decisive vote the amendment
of Senator Simpson to include constl-
e1tional amendments in the Plain bill
was adopted and the bill passed.
Although the LELAND bill, which COW
cred the same subject matter, was de-
feated in the house, there is posi-
bility: Of the Plain bills passing, for
the reason that those who really want
the initiative will prefer to vote for the
constitutional provision than to see no
referendum bill pass at all, and those
Who believe the bill would give an op-
portunity to .resubmit the prohibition
clause are apt to support the bill.
So far Is the prohibition part OF the
matter is concerned, the Tribune be-
lieves prohibition would carry in the
state again and by a decisive maj ority.
1t would carry In nearly every county
m the state. If it were voted OF, again
and carried decisively, it would at least
put an end to resubmission agitation,
and might have a tendency to the bet
ter enforcement of the law. The ultra
prohibitionists take the ground, posi-
ny with some human nature if not with
entire consistency, that they have a pro-
hibition clause now, and will not per-
init themselves to be forced into fight
10 defend it unless they must. This IS
not the broadest view to take OF the
nztter, but it is an entirely natural one.
But as matter of fairness, no portion
Of the people should be denied the right
to vote on any proposition, if the same
right is granted to any other class or,
part of the people. And legislation that
IS framed to cover matters of public
concern, making peculiar and pro-
nounced exception of one especial mat
ter, is not to be defended on broad and
liberal grounds. :
The people are to be trusted with all
matters that may be brought before
them 1t cannot be said that they are
10 be trusted with ninety and nine
matters and not to be trusted with the
other one. The government is theirs
and if they are entitled to initiate and
refer legislation on one subject by a
certain per Gent of their votes, they are
entitled to the same rights on any 9th
a subject
