Important as is the uprising of
the people in this campaign against
the lnlqultles of the Payne-Aldrich
tariff law, the more important thing
is the fight to restore representa-
tive government, to overthrow and
destroy the methods in vogue in
Congress by which the hands of
the representatives of the people
are tied and legislation run in the
interest of the favored classes. For
this the Republican party, which is
dominated and controlled by Spe.
clal Interests, is responsible. A
few patriotic Republicans have re-
VOTED at this shameless prosttu-
ton of the peoples interests, but
40 real reform and relief can be
expected until the Republican
party is overthrown and the reins
of government placed in the hands
of a party that stands for equal
rights to all and special privileges
to none. The Democratic party
now stands as the only hope of the
nation.

ADJOURNMENT TAKEN IN

An adjournment was taken in
the State Bank case yesterday aft

by mutual consent of attorneys on
both sides of the question The
case is one which is being bitterly
fought and which is taking a large
amount Of time.
Judge Langan in granting the ad-
journment which is asked for by
Judge Massey that he might attend
to the duties incumbent upon him
as candidate of the people for
nomination for governor, stated that
he had no objection to the granting
of the same if it was the wish of
the attorneys. He then set a date
in the early part of September, but
Attorney Peck found that the day
set would conflict with a case that
he had on hand and a later date
was then named. Judge Massey OBJ
jected to this date as it conflicted
with arrangements that he had
made, so the date of October 4th
was then agreed upon-Carson

FRANCE DOES
HONOR TO george
WASHINGTON

{ Continued from Page une.)
the accomplishment of our freedom,
to place within those walls the stat
ute of the father of his coun-
try"
Speaking of Washington. Mr..
Mann said:
Grand as he was in war, he was
grander still in peace, and to him
above all others is due the adop-
ton of the constitution which weld
ed the states together into that
form of government which became
the pattern of future republics.
Courteous and courtly to all
men, tender affection characterize
ed his intercourse with his friends.
Lafayette's heart went out to him
in filial love; Rochambeau held him
as a dearly beloved brother in
arms; De Crosse admired him and
was glad to call him a friend;
ChastelluX declared him to be the
greatest and best Of all men while
his own people with one accord
have proclaimed him First in war,
first in peace, and first in the
hearts of his countrymen.
In glowing terms, Mr.. Mann re
ferred to Lafayette and the af-
fectionate regard in which Ameri-
cans held his memory.
No name in all the history Of
our revolutionary period save only
that OF Washington, said Mr.
Mann, is so dear to the American
people as that of the gallant young
Frenchman who before he had
reached the age Of twenty became a
major general in the army Of the
United States, having rendered his
services as a volunteer without
compensation or allowance
Before the constitution was adopt
ed Lafayette had been by legislative
act declared a citizen of Virginia,
the highest honor a free state can
pay any man; and upon his death
by order of the president of the
United States the same honors were
rendered by the nation as had been
observed on the death of Wash !
ington
His love for our state was
touchingly shown when he named
daughter Virginia. And I am proud |
to relate that when offered his ,
choice of commands in the CONT
mental army he selected a division
composed entirely of Virginians 1t I
was he, at the head of his division
of brave Virginians, who drove I

ton at Yorktown and held him
there until the coming of Wash
ington and Rochambeau by land.
and of De Grasse and st. Simon by
sea. CORVALLIS has said of him,
The boy cannot escape me-; but it .
was due to the splendid strategy of
the boy that the entire British army
on the glorious October day in
1871 was forced to march out in
humble submission between the
lines of French and Americans and
1ot 4
Mr.. Mann related how a French
man had been chosen to perpetu-
ate the form of the illustrious
Washington in imperishable marble.
1.-THE war drums of the revolu-
ton had hardly ceased to sound
before the new born state of Vir-
ginia voted a statute to Washing
ton, he said. Desiring to honor
the greatest of her sons, she knew
when she enshrined in the place of
highest honor in her capitol that
splendid figure of a man, that she
was handing down to generations

and that there was remaining 50 O69
Z62 to be added to the roll
Aside from the fact that this action
0! the county commissioners nut, tax-
able values on much more satisfac-
tory basis lin this county. and at the
same time makes it possible to re-
duce the tax levy mills from last
years rate; aside from these pleasing
conditions, there remains the demon
strated fact that it is not necessary to
ADOPT constitutional amendment in
creasing the state tax levy, in order to
Keep the state government and the
state institutions running. If one
county out Of 27 can by equalizing add
three millions to the state wealth,
what can .he other 26 do? More than
that, what should they do? Custer
county has by this action Increased
its valuation about 25 per cent. If all
will do as we'll next year-it is too late
now for such action this year-the
states total assessment, now $780,
100000. will probably crowd 100000
600 In 1911, and a | 1-2-mill levy on
this (such as will ensue if the consti-
tutional amendment now proposed is
defeated) will realize 100000, which
ought to at least keep us running.
There is much more to be said on
this subject, and which will be said by
The Journal, as the campaign pro-
crosses, but the pertinent point now
made is that every county in the state
has (as Custer county had) millions
of dollars of taxable wealth that is
escaping taxation and which should
be dragged into the light and made to
pay its share of the general cost of
government. Lands all over the state
have advanced enormously in value. 1t
was on the lands only in Custer coun-
ty that this advance was made. Every
other county can do as we'll or bet
ter, and some counties have other VAL
liable properties that should be ex-
posed to view.

THE FRUITING HABITS.

In pruning for fruit the location of
the fruit buds must be borne in mind.
The peach forms fruit buds on new
wood-that is, the wood growth in
1909 bears the fruit of 1910. The
chief aim of the peach grower is to
keep the tree trimmed back so that
the bearing wood is as close to the
main branches as possible. The grape
is pruned back each year to new buds
or branches, called canes, for the fruit
is borne on shoots which grow from
buds borne on the previous years
growth. Apple, pear cherry and most
short lateral branches, called fruit
sDurS. These spurs are formed on
wood older than one year. They grow
in length very slowly, frequently only
very small fraction of an inch each
year. Spurs on the inner branches
frequently fail to produce fruit buds. 1t
is believed that this is due to poor
leaf development, caused by lack of
light. and may be remedied by judi
cious pruning. Care must be taken
that branches previously shaded are
not suddenly exposed to the direct
rays of the sun, or sunscald is likely
to follow. Borers are liable to infest
such injured branches, and, in time,
cause the death of the tree. Close
observation is necessary to detect the
presence of these insects, and when
once detected they must be destroyed
