A TIMELY WARNING.

Prof. John B. Smith, the entomolo- gist of the New Jersey agricultural station, has issued warnings to all inn porting trees or shrubbery from abroad to look out that they are not infested by the brown-tail moth, which is equally as annoying a pest as the gyp- sy moth, which has cost the state of Massachusetts over two million dol lars.
 It would be difficult to attach too much importance to such a warning as that sent out by Prof. John B. Smith It is of special urgency because the pest has been unusually plentiful for the last two seasons in sections of Europe from which we draw heavily for shrub, shade and fruit tree stock Consequently the danger of the impor- tation of the pest is greater than usual just now. Professor Smith urges that arrangements be made for the careful inspection of all imported nursery stock, so that any g-clusters or nests of the larvae of the moth may be dis covered and destroyed. This is a duty which every party to such importations owes to himself, his fellow workers and his state.
 Since this pest can be kept out with proper vigilance, it is the duty of al interested in this subject to do as re- quested and lend a hand in the work Prompt action now may save an ex- pense of millions later on.

SUBWAY PROBLEMS.

The cities of Boston and New York lens, to which there appears to be no end, since the demand for them is ever increasing. The city of Boston is con- sidering a subway from the North to the South station which it is estimated will cost S16.00o, 900 of which the Con- solidated road offers to bear S6, 1000, 900 of the expense While the necessity for such a tunnel is recognized, the directors of the Boston chamber of commerce appear to have some doubt whether such a means of through tran sit will not lessen rather than increase trade, and they are going to look into the matter from a cold commercial stand point to see whether it is the best thing for Boston.
 New Yorks problem of how to fur nish transportation for it's rapidly growing population does not seem in a fair way to solve itself The public service commissioner reports that in the month of December last the sub way cars carried 2.300,00 more people than they did the month before The elevated trains in the city carried a million more in December last year than in the month of December, 1908.

EXP ERiMENTAL FARMS.

James J. IIiIFs idea that it would be profitable to found an experimental farm in every county of a state is be- ing seriously considered by some of the western states. The Ohio house of representatives agrees with Hill that experimental farms are highly desira- ble institutions. It has passed the Wilber bill, which authorizes the es- tablishment of these plots at county cost. Should every county take ad- vantage of such a. measure" says the Toledo Blade this would do very much toward redeeming Ohio as an agricultural state IL would serve to put us with the advanced guard in- stead of with the rear The bill should have the senate approval and the sig nature of the governor. It is difficult to see how either can afford not to give endorsement''

THE UNIVERSITY AERONAUTIC
 CLUB.

There is a movement on foot to in- terest the colleges of the country in air navigation, and the first convention for this purpose is to be held in Phil adelphia on the 1st and 2d of April, when it is expected that several hun- dred students from American and Ca nadian colleges will be present, the purpose being to organize a University Aeronautic club which shall affiliate with the Aero club of America Dur ing the sessions lectures and addresses will be delivered by the most renown ed aviators in the world.
 It is pointed out that if the colleges take up aeronantics we may look for an increase in the knowledge of the essentials of the machines and of their management in the air, all of which will be of great value in ascertaining commercial possibilities. In the hands of an ordinary college boy, with the proverbia1 recklessness of such indi- viduals, there are few feats known or possible to aeronautics which will long remain untried. That the col leges may help develop the science of aviation and make it as practical as possible is the hope of those calling the convention

THE INeERsoLL-DAvis CASE.

This is a legal case which attracts more than ordinary attention because the plaintiff in the suit has been dead for over decade and it is still booked for continuance.
 Judge Hammond of the Massachu- setts supreme court, awarding $170.O00 to Mrs. Robert G. Ingersoll for legal services rendered by her husband to Andrew J. Davis, a Montana copper magnate, also deceased. Ingersoll died eleven years ago, therefore the case affords a striking example of the laws delay. AS it will be appeal to the United States supreme court the delay is by no means terminated.
 ConmentiTSS upon this decision, the Pittsburg Gmzette-T Times has this to say:
 ssWhoever has heard the peroration of one of IngersolPs lectures can never forget how he wove sunset glow and gleams of dawn, the silver sheen of stars and the rainbow's jeweled scarf, into the namboyant tapestry of his magic eloQuence. Poems, symphonies, pictures were fused in his sonorous periods-few orators have ever wielded such a sensuous spell.
 "Juge Hammond's decision also will bring home to many who remember Ingersolrs burning oratory the fact that this type of lawyer is fast pass ing away. The man who can move a jury to tears by his plea is no longer as highly valued as the one who knows the pigeon holes of the law and can draw up an air-tight document. We have turned from the spectacular to the practical, from pyrotechnics to business, and the transition has been accomplished almost entirely during these eleven years since Ingersoll passed away
 Tt iE. indeed, rare that any judi ciaI decision Is handed down which, in itself of but narrow scope, starts so many trains of thought and memory as this one in the Ingersoll- Davis coS

STRIKES.

The strike in Philadelphia is not as- stIrning a very encouraging shape for others who have grievances and are eo1teu71lating a labor war to settle them: but we are told that 25,0oo rail- road fremen- representing roads west of Chicago, are contemplating tie up of all the roads; and attention is be- inz called to the fact that in April the contract between the operators and the coal miners in the competitive field of Ohio, Indiana and western Pennsylvania will expire: that negoti- ations for q new contract have come 10 naught: that both sides have set forth their demands and their re- e1uirements and both sides have re- fused to recede from inc positions de- lined: so the outlook for a strike ap- pears to be most promising; and it would be sure to take place but for the fact that to the south of them lies q country without organization, with out any sense of brotherhood or sym pathy with workmen's problems, eager and willing to take advantage of the neighbors' domestic rows. A strike will close the mines of western Penn svlyanfa Ohio and Indiana, but it won't cut off the supply of fuel. True, the mining property will deteriorate, and that menace may serve to per- s1ade the operators to make conces- sions, but the great leverage for the Ininers-the demand for fuel on the part of the consuming public-cannot be counted upon. west Virginia will work the harder to reap the chance windfau of dollars.
 Under the circumstances there are good reasons to believe that this strike will not naterialize, since it is not for the interests of the operators or miners to have it.

The Right Way the Best Way.

Sooner or later it will dawn upon even tho most pronounced opponents of negro suffrage that the right way is the best way. Makeshift after makeshift has been devised to let the most ignorant white man cast his bal lot and prevent the most intelligent colored man from exercising the same right Tine spirit Of the national con gtatution has been repeatedly violated to this end and the result has been unsatisfactory from every point of view An educational and a property qualification would certainly place the power in the hands of the southern whites, and further than that would furnish inspiration to the negro to fit himself for citizenship by gaining the necessary intelligence and real estate. But this is the very thing which many Illogical white persons desire to pre- vent.

MANY INTERESTED IN
DOG CATCHER'S TRIAL
Is ACCUSED OF POINTING
GUN AT G. O'DANIELS
Hearing Occurs This Afternoon
Much Sentiment Both for and
Against Successful Canine Captor.

Few cases to come before Justice
of the Peace Joe H. Parkes for a
hearing in many months have aroused
such interest as that being displayed
in the case of Harry Hart, the dog
catcher who has been charged by
George O'Daniel with having pointed
a gun at him. The case was to have
come up for trial this morning at 10
O'Clock, but at the request of City At
torney Raley, who is defending Hart,
the hearing was postponed until
o'clock. ,
Several witnesses have been sub
poenaed to tell what they saw and
from the amount of interest being
displayed the small court room will
be crowded to the limit. Meanwhile
the work of catching the untagged
CANNES is being carried on, much to
the discontinue of those who have
been trying to evade the law.
Public sentiment regarding the case
to be tried this afternoon is very
much divided. The sympathy of
those who have been forced to pay
the dog tax after trying to evade it
and those who have so far escaped
payment is with the prosecution,
while owners of dogs who have paid
the license from year to year while
others escaped and those people who
have seen the packs of worthless dogs
on the streets constantly increasing,
are openly expressing a desire for the
vindication of the dog catcher, who
is making more of a systematic ef-
fort to enforce the law and clean out
the dogs than has ever been made be-
fore.
