'There is only one thing, and that
is that we will have to steal the
method and work of our opponents.
For long time we have been max
ing this fight and going through these
battles with very little avail because
our opponents, our enemies. were
wiser than we were in the way in
which they were working. Their plat
form has been: Remember your
friends, and do not forget your enc
mics That is the platform of the
liquor interests.
eve can win just as soon as we
can forget trifes and remember our
friends, and don't forget our enc
mics, and above everything else not
tolerate anything that is simply
astraddle of this great vital question
about which every man ought to
have some conviction of some kind.
Let us go forth from this splendid
convention with the determination to
win this battle"

secured statewide prohibition, while
dozen or more other states have
closed up thousands of saloons by
means Of county option, and we. of
Minnesota. have, as yet, only linn
tied local option law that does not
even include cities. Does Minnesota
no longer stand for patriotism? Is
it possible that we have become so
busy in our pursuit of wealth, pleas

Our civic responsibilities?

Gently telling of the advancement OF
Everett Quinn, a graduate of the Ellis
worth high school, but whose work is now
in the field Of dynamics. When the power
station was opened after the dam was
completed, he was one of the operators,
but left to take position with the Am
bursen company in Wyoming, staying
until their work there was completed.
Mr.. Quinn then went to Denver,
passed an examination before the board OF
consulting engineers, and came through
with flying colors, being granted an en-
gineer's license of the first class. Shortly
afterwards he was offered the chief en-
gineer's position at the power station OF
the power company at Lander, Wyo., and
accepted. Since he has taken up work
there he has had substantial increase in
salary, the best evidence that his work is
satisfactory.
The entertainment given at Hancock
hall last Wednesday evening under the
auspices of the March committee of the
Congregational church, was a highly en-
tertaining one, and richly deserved q
larger patronage than it received. The
first part was "The Magic Mirror, a
poem, read by Miss Helen E. Bonsey, and
illustrated by tsbleaux. A bachelor, rep
resented by G. R. Burrill, sat in reverie,
hearing the words of the poem, and to
him were presented different types Of girls,
he endeavoring to choose one for bride.
Opposite him was a magician, represented
by Harry w. Haynes, lowering over
magic cauldron. The stage setting was
admirable, and the tableaux, thirteen OF
them, were very pretty. The second part
was two-act comedy, s'Not man in the
House," the characters we're all female
and were impersonated by men. The
costumes and make ups were unique, and
made great hit. Between the parts
there was excellent piano music by Miss
Erva Giles. The committee, OF which
Mrs. Fl. e. Davis is chairman, is deserV-
ing OF a whole lot OF praise for its efforts.
The proceeds are for the benefit of the

BROTHERS EXPERIENCE
 | SUFFICIENT WARMING
To Keep Chief of Police Oepp Out of
 the Mining Business.


 Chief of Police Depp of Sepulpa. Okla, was in the city yesterday on his. way home from Florence. where he had been called to look after the affairs of his brother R. T. Depp. who had recently died there. The brother was a prospector who. had been a resident of the territory for forty years. He had been in every part of t s;iia had located mines in many places. He was the owner of prom isrig claims in the Eagle Tail noun tains.
 Chief of Police Depp had never been this far west before, and had never interested himself in the subject of mining. He said he did not know whether the claims left by his brother were of value or not, and he would not make an effort to find out There was before him the fact that his brother had spent forty years among mines and still had realized nothing more substantiaI- than hope. The chief |of police says that he himself is too far advanced in years to begin. dining on hope. In order to get used to that kind of diet one. he believes. must begin early while the imagination is lively. and when things are not seen as they really are

THE sIEsTA IN THE PHILIPPINES.

The Spaniard damned us for one new custom in particular when we went into business in Manila. We didn't take well to the siesta hour. ,t was no part of our business curriculum. Also it was one of the few local things that the American absolutely refused to take into consideration by dove tailing it into his commercial institu- tions and bylaws. Promptly at the noon hour in the early days in Philip pine cities merchants scurried home behind theft liveried coachmen, while their employees ducked along out of the sun or rain to their boarding places The store or office. as the case might be. was locked up tight. It so re- mained while the force dined and took it's afternoon nap. About o'clock the commercial world awakened again. rubbed it's bloodshot eyes. -rinsed its mouth of q dark brown taste. and grouchily returned to the tasks at the desk or behind the counter. Nowadays few stores close at noon All are anxious for the extra pesos the Amer ican hoped to get by keeping open doors at midday Monroe woolley in The Bookkeeper

MEETING OF BOARDS
 TO OUTLINE PLANS
Conference of Irrigation Congress of-
 ficisIs to Be Held in Pueblo.

B. A. Bowler. president of the ] Eighteenth National Irrigation con-
 gress. left this morning on the Dia- !, mond Jo' for Pueblo. Colo. to be gone
 a week or 3D. The object of his trip
 is to, attend a joint meeting of the ' board of governors of the irrigation congress and local Pueblo board of control. which will have charge of the arrangements for the entertainment lef the eighteenth session of the con gross to be held there this fall. This will be the first meeting of the board { of governors since the selection of the , Pueblo board of control. and will also be the first time that the joint meeting of the two boards has been { held so early in the proceedings. for . conference on matters of importance before important things have been un- dertaken and too far advanced for i changing. even if desirable It is in that way the establishing of new precedent for carrying out the pur- poses for which the board of govern ors was created.
 The organization of the ebolrd of , control is subject to the approval of | the board of governors, to which is delegated tue full powers of the con sress. to ast for it during the inter- '. regnum between sessions. The board of control. as organized in Pueblo. is
 composed of the leading men of the
 state representing the business and
 professional and financial interests
 very fully. It is believed, there will be
 the greatest harmony and co-opera- |, tion. resulting in a bigger and better
 session this year than any of its
 predecessors have been
 The meeting will discuss and deter mine. the general policies of the ad- ininistration of the congress and will
 probably take up the main features
 of the program for the next session,
 after which the detail work, in &C.,
 cordance with the program outlined.
 will be attended to by committees. There are two ideas expressed by the
 creation of the two boards. which
 board of control is concerned in mak-
 ing the congress the biggest possible
 advertisement for the city and state while the board of governors must
 keep constantly before them the na-, ,tional. or. perhaps it Is proper now to say. the internafional. character of
 the congress, for it is attended in later
 years by. delegates from all over the world The board of control which will raise the funds and entertain the |congress, will be privileged to do every
 thing it. can to advance the interests
 of Colorado. but the board of gov
 ernors will of. course permit nothing that will detract from the congress
 as national in it's scope
 The board of governors is composed Iof the following named seven gem.

 My trees are all budded and the Florida sour stock root and are Flor ida trees. as 1 have no trees budded on the sweet stock I have no data to judge of the respective merits of the ; two classes.

! the top as much as possible, and If the body is thus protected although the leaves and twigs at the top may be frosted the trees will be all right and grow right on
 Those who set out trees ten or twelve years ago were very particular in protecting the young trees and so far as 1 know lost none. The past five or seven years we have had no cold snaps and there was no use of using precautionary meas ures Thinking that climatic condi- tons had changed in the valley. some were caught mapping this winter. If young trees are protected by Novem- Der 18th or December 1st there is practically no danger. The peculiarity of the cold spell this year was. that it came at least fifteen days earlier than at any other time during my residence here.
 Another fact can be relied upon which experience has proven. If wa. ter can be run through the groves turning it on after midnight 1t will modify the cold fully four degrees. When John Tait was superintendent
 
 made experiments and compared notes and found that running water would make four degrees difference in tenn perature By running water after midnight say from about two a. m. the water is warmer than the air and a Slight mist is raised about the trees that prevents frost from doing injury to either trees or fruit
 I remembered this fact this. year and the coldest night I started water to running under my trees ats a. m and my fruit was not injured. l have fruit on my trees now. including the Parson Brown and the Valencia late varieties and the fruit is sound. and uninjured About half of the fruit on. one of my. lemon trees tVilla F'ranchaD was injured. The lemons could have been picked before any frost. as they were ready. but neglected it and have now this experience. My Sicily lemon trees budded on Florida sour stock were untouched by the frost. Although they were especially well protected by pepper trees. the fruit had been picked.
 Again, few years ago some of us ceased irrigatins anr trees after Sep tember or the first of October and al- lowed the wood to mature. This is a safeguard and will enable the trees to resist frost This year some of us kept up the irrigatipg and new growth IS tender as new grown beans kept com ing out ard got .nipped. By 5remen-

LETTER FROM IMPORTER ON EffEeI oE TARIFF
He Explains to Charles Korriek Why
 Prices Are Higher.


 IL will be remembered that last spring when the Payne tariff bill was in course of construction. opposition all over the country developed against the house provision relating to hosiery and gloves. It was stated that hos, would be higher: or rather. that they would cost more. and meetings were held in which ladies took d prominent part to protest against the proposed increase of the tariff over the Dingley rates.
 The house schedule was slightly modified in the senate, but still the rates were left far in excess of the old rates.
 That the fears of higher hose, that is to say. costlier hose. we're not groundless is shown by letter re- ceived yesterday by Charles Korrick, proprietor of the New York Store. from s. M. Hohl of New York. impor- ter of hosiery and gloves.
 Mr Hohl writes: T am in receipt of your favor of January regarding ladies' hose. and beg to state that prices quoted you are the very best can give on these articles. agree with you that the quality could be better. but since they have passed a new tariff bill there is nothing left the common people to do but to take what the other people do not want Notwithstanding that. we all have to live in the meantime. and l hope that you will be able to send me an order on either one of the two articles. and as soon as you have finished with the samples. kindly let me have them -at your earliest convenience.
 ."I suppose you know that they are talking again in Washington of put ting an extra tariff of 25 per cent on all imported goods by March 31. as in this instance our country ships every year to Germany $500, 100000. while. Germany ships us only about s1G0.0O0.000 That means that we sell them twice as much as they sell us. Notwithstanding that. the United States government wants to put a higher duty on German goods and ex poets Germany to buy goods from America These people in Washington are acting like, irresponsible children and-I hope that they win come to their seSses before March 3l and make q suitable trade agreement"

FROST KID ORANGES
 IN SALT RIVER VALLEY
An Encouraging Communication by
 Chaplain Scott.

The following communication from Chaplain Winfield Scott of Scottsdale to The Republican on the effect of the frost this winter on the citrus trees of the valley will be of interest to grow CTS and will be found also to be en- couragihg to them:
 Now that the cold weather for this season has passed. what practical les sors on orange culture can be learned from the unusual cold weather we ex- perienced in December and January?
 I have lived here for twenty-one years and have grown different vari- cites of fruit the whole time. For the most of the time have kept the rec ords from the thermometer three times a day. 8
 During the twentv-one years we have had three cold snaps like the one this winter Two of them the ther- mometer registered precisely the same as this year The lowest record being 22 degrees above zero for one night only. once We had it two degrees colder i. C., 20 degrees above As a rule we had fair and ample warning of what was coming. as the, coldest night always occurred the second or third night after the cold set in. l have never known it to continue long CT than three ngbtssin succession. An Interesting fact in such cold weather is that the thermomefer drops from one to one and one half degrees just at sunrise but remains at this tenn perature not more than ten or fifteen minutes. which does little damage.
 Trees beyond five years old will not suffer materially from. this temper ature. 4 few green twigs and some leaves may suffer but beyond this there will be no dama2e f,Tr-s r-s well s;se!l protected by wind brakes will not suf- fer materially nor will the fruit on the trees.
 Younger trees and especially those first planted. should be well proaected for at least three years after planting. The body of the trees should be thor ougliiy protected with icornstaiks and
