The Kings speech delivered by His
Majesty Edward VII at the opening
of the British Parliament meant more
than such utterances have signified
in many years. The voice of the adj
dress was the kings, but the hand that
wrote the real meaning into the
words was that of the Liberal minis
try, says Troy Times. His majesty
personally could take no part in the
controversy now raging in his realm,
but when he said that proposals would
be laid before the legislators ito Sc
cure the undivided authority of the
house of commons over finance and
its predominance in legislation" and
that this was 'the opinion of my adj
visers," it indicated that the house of
lords is to have its wings clipped if
the government is to have it's way.

Tree pests, like the gypsy moth, the
browntail moth, the elm tree beetle
and others, are not the only ones.
Australia has a plague of rabbits,
those animals being so numerous and
destructive that they do vast damage
to the farmers crops. So, while Mas
sachusetts and other eastern states are
paying out sums which have amount
ed to millions of dollars since the fight
against the insects began, the Austria
liam state of Victoria appropriates
100000 annually for the purpose of
killing off the superfluous Dummies"
The antipodes have troubles of their
