expression of the nations love for

The fact that we mourn his loss and

occasion for my remark today, and I
do not deem it proper to conclude

Daughters of the Confederacy by this
presentation, not merely testify their
love of Senator Bryan, and not merely
do they VOW loyalty to their country
they hallow the cause of war
This is in line with their traditions

GENERAL NEWS OF NATIONAL HAPPENINGS
AFTERsBIGGEsT COMBINE.
Government VIII Proceed Aaainst Al
legged Coal Trust.

Washington, March 20. AS the re-
suit of long investigation into what
agents of the department of justice
declare is the biggest trust in the
world, announcement was made here
today that criminal prosecutions of
half dozen of the most powerful
financiers in the United States are to
be begun by the federal government.
Agents of the department have re-
ported their find of evidence showing
that a billion dollar combine exists,
fathered by the Pennsylvania railroad
and which was organized to control
the output of anthracite coal through
out the whole of the United States.
The government, it is alleged, will
try to show that this gigantic COM
bination has for many years secretly
used its power to extort enormous
profits from the coal trade, throttling
all competition by Withholding cars
from concerns not in the trust. Dunn
my directors and secret alliances be-
tween the railroads and the mining
companies are reported as the basis of
the combine. The subsidizing of small
railroads and the buying up of enor-
nous coal holdings are said to have
been the steps by which the trust
gained control of the coal situation.
Officials of the department of JUS
tice assert that the Pennsylvania, the
Baltimore & Ohio, and the Norfolk &
Western railroads are the most promi-
nent in the trust. 1t is also asserted
that the Pennsylvania, through enor-
nous holdings listed under dummy
names, controls other roads. The Bal
timore & Ohio and the Norfolk &
Western are reported to have used the
same device to conceal their proper
ties and affiliations.

FIRE DESTROYS CAPITOL
OF NEW YORK STATE

Albany, N. Y, March 20. - The
state capitol, erected at cost of $685.
600, 900 caught fire shortly before 8
clock this moring and is threatened
with complete destruction.
The fire is famed by a stiff breeze.
1t originated in the west end of the
great structure on the third floor and
the whole side of the building is
wrapped in flames with which the
firemen seem powerless to cope.
The capitol is one of the finest
buildings of it's kind in the country.
The building is Of drilled granite, four
stories high, and houses the assembly,
the senate, the court of appeals, the
state library and the offices of many
state officials.
At 4:05 o'clock the flames had swept
across the entire west section of the
building and were bursting into the
senate finance committee room and the
adjoining Offices of the temporary
president of the senate. At that hour
the fire threatened to reach the SEN
ate chamber.
At O. clock the fire was not under
control. 1t was advancing across the
front of the building and threatened
to destroy the entire structure.

"BUCKET SHOPS" UPHELD.
Columbia Justice Decides Law Un-
constitutional.

constitutional.
Washington-An attempt by con-
gress to define so closely the offense of
"bucket shopping" as to make it
impracticable in the District of Col
umbia has resulted in the complete
failure of legislation on the ground of
unconstitutionality.
Justice Wright, in the District Su-
preme court, has decided that the act
referred to constituted an unwarrant-
ed interference with the right sof the
citizen to enter into contract relations
and therefore was unconstitutional.
The statute is of local application
only and does not necessarily affect
the actions which the department of
justice has begun at many other points
against alleged bucket shop operators,
for the prosecution in those cases has
been under the postal laws on the
plain ground of fraud.
This decision was rendered in the
case of Edward Altamus & Co.
The movements of the government
leading up to the indictments were
shroued in the greatest secrecy On
April 2, 1910, however, when indict-
ments were obtained, raids on
"shops" in seven cities were made
simultaneously, wires were cut and
customers were thrown into panic.
Since then, according to Attorney
General Wickersham, "bucket-shop-
ping" has become thing of the past
east of Denver.
The government announced its in
tention to appeal from Justice
Wright's decision.

SPRAYING PREVENTS DISEASE
AND DESTROYS INSECTS
Established Intelligent Spray Away
Pays-Formu1a Given That Is Accepted
Safe and Reliable.

Two classes of enemies attack fruit
.rees and plants, viz. insects and fun
5ous diseases. The application of sub
tances, usually liquid, to the tree or
liant for the purpose Of preventing
r destroying these constitutes spray
ing.
We spray to destroy, insects and to
prevent fungous diseases. Spraying is
10 longer an experiment. 1t is an
established fact that intelligent and
1ersistent spraying always pays. The
fleets Of spraying are cumulative.
The effects Of spraying last year and
this year may result in an increased
yield next year. An instructive bulle-
tin issued by the Wisconsin Horti-
cultural society, has the following to
say regarding spraying The insects
affecting fruit may be divided for con-
venience into two classes, which are
distinguished by their mode of feed
ing, viz: eatirg or chewing insects
and sucking insects.
Eating insects consume the affected
tissues, commonly the leaves, and
thereby hinder the functions of the
plant The common example is the
potato bug" or beetle Insects of
this class are destroyed by poisoning
their food Sucking insects do not
consume the external tissues of the
plant, but feed only on the sap. In
order to accomplish this the insect
thrusts it's proboscis through the ex-
ternal coverings and sucks the juices
in the same way as mosquito sucks
blood. AS these insects do not con-
sumo the tissue of the leaf or branch,
poisons are of no avail. We must
therefore attack the insects. This is
stance which will penetrate their
bodies, or with substance which closes
their breathing pores. To repeat:
% Biting or chewing insects are
destroyed by placing poison on the
parts on which the insects feed.
(2) Sucking insects are destroyed
only by attacking the insects and for
this class poisons are Of no avail.
Apple scab, brown rot of plums and
peaches, potato rot, blight, rust and
other destructive plant diseases are
commonly ascribed to weather con-
ditions. Indirectly this is often true,
but neither rain nor drought nor any
other atmospheric condition is ever
directly the cause Of plant diseases.
Rainy weather does not directly
cause plum rot, but provides condi-
tions favorable to the development of
the fungus, and probably unfavorable
conditions for the development of the
plum and its ability to resist the in
vasion of the disease.
Fungi (plant diseases) are propa-
gated by spores, minute bodies which

RELIEF STEAMER AT SHANGHAI

transport Buford, bearing the relief
supplies to the starving people in
China, which were collected in this
country under the auspices of the Am
erican National Red Cross and the Sc
attic Commercial club, has arrived in
Shanghai, according to cablegram
received by the officials of the Ameri-
can Red Cross.
The vessel will proceed Immediately
to Nanking and Chinkiang to unload
her cargo.
Mail advices to the State depart
ment from Shanghai and Marking re-
tail pitiful tales of the indescribable
suffering of the starving millions.
Mr.. Bostick, a missionary, writing
from Pochow, says the suffering poor
have reached the extremes of tmisery.
A few months ago they were living on
wheat bran. With this exhausted,
they have resorted to cooking leaves
of trees and even dry wheat chaff.
Barefooted children, all but naked
on freezing cold days, pitifully
screaming "I'm hungry, I'm hun
gry," present common street scene.
Mothers, no longer able to provide
food for their offspring, throw them
away, probably in the frantic hope
that compassion will force some one
to rescue them. Men, a few months
ago able-bodied farmers, have been
reduced to rags, shivering with cold
and facing starvation.

KNOX DRAFTS NEW TREATY.
AngIo-American Alliance Ready for
Special Session.

special SESSION.
Washington, D. C.-The drafting of
new arbitration treaty between the
United States and Great Britain to in
Glued iall disputes between the two
countries has been begun by Secretary
of State Knox. Negotiation of the
convention will be expedited as much
as possible, with view to submit
ting it tosthe senate for ratification
at the special session to begin April A.
The treaty will be the first of its
kind ever negotiated and will provide
for arbitration on all disputes between
the United States and Great Britain.
The work of drawing up the new con-
vention will be difficult, because the
document will be the first of its kind.
1t will be used as model for similar
conventions with other countries.
Negotiation of general arbitration
treaty with Great Britain is the direct
result of the speech of Sir Edward
Grey, minister of Foreign affairs of
Great Britain, in the house of COM
mons several weeks ago, in which he
said that proposal for negotiation of
such a convention would be welcomed
by the British government.
While President Taft and Mr.. Knox
have been in favor of such treaty
for some months, they were not in
clined to make definite proposal of the
subject to Great Britain until official
information had first been obtained as
to the probable attitude of that coun-
try toward the proposal. The speech
of Sir Edward Grey cleared up this
phase of the situation and paved the
way for actual negotiations.
The attitude of the senate will de-
termine whether or not other conven-
tions, similar to that negotiated with
Great Britain, will be drawn up and
submitted for ratification.
1t is understood that preliminary
exchanges have been made through
the State department to ascertain the
attitude of the French government to-
ward a general arbitration treaty COW
ering all future disputes. These con-
ventions, if ratified and put into oper-
alton, will be long step towards in
ternationl peace.

WOULD Be A CRIME
Great White Nations Could Never
Become Enemies.
Asquith and Reid Agree Bible i.
Bond That Cannot Be Ignored
TAFT Sends Greeting.

London - Premier Asquith and
Whitelaw Reid, the American ambas-
sador, at a meeting of statesmen
Wednesday evening, took occasion to
eulogize the arbitration moveent.
They were the principal speakers at
the tercentenary celebration of the
completion of the English translation
of the Bible, known as the King
James version, in 1911.
In his address Mr.. Asquith said:
"The English Bible belongs not only
to the subjects of King George, but to
the whole English-speaking world.
One of the truths which / firmly be-
lieve is rooted in the faith of the
Christian men and women on both
sides of the Atlantic is that war be-
tween English-speaking people would
be not only crime against civiliza-
tion, but an unforgiveable breach of
those commandments which are en-
shrined in the testament on which
both nations have been Bred
Mr.. Reid said:
From the men and from the peoples
nurtured on the precepts of the Bible
and mainly on this version, came the
recent statesmanlike proposal of the
president of the United States and the
inspiring response of King George,
through Sir Edward Grey, which prom
ises to make war as a settlement of
any dispute henceforth between any
English-speaking peoples impossible,
and between any other civilized ma
tions discreditable.

FEDERALs TRAP REBELS.
Scout Discovers Too Late That APP
preaching Forces is Enemy.

Aqua Prieta, Mex, March 2s.--
Messages from Governor Torres, also
messages to the rebel junta here, show
that the rebels suffered a decisive de-
feat near Ures yesterday. Their loss
is placed at 75 dead and many wound
ed. The messages to the rebel junta
place the number of Federal dead at
30.
1t is believed the rebel force which
engaged in the fighting at La Colorado
few days ago, had divided, one sec
tion going around to the west of Her
mosillo from the south, under com
mand of Jesus Rivera. The other
half, under command Of leader named
Loyzien, marched to the east and
north, joining Juan Cabral and 220
mounted rebels who had gone south
from Carbo.
The rebels few days ago ceased
cutting the telegraph wires, and in
stead tapped the wires and caught the
government messages. The govern
ment sent decoy messages which
threw the insurrectos off in their cal
cuations. Rebels at San Rafael, near
Ures, were joined by Giron and a
force from Sahuaripa and the com
bined force under command of Loyzien
took up quarters in the old Federal
barracks.
Only two roads lead into San Ra-
fael and Loyzien placed two scouts to
guard these. One of these scouts is
said to have taken along bottle of
mescal, and when he saw the Federal
army he thought the troops were
rebels
Colonel Ojeda, who had collected
forces from Hermosillo, had obtained
information that the rebels were at San
Rafael, and before approaching the
town, divided his forces into two
wings, which neared the camp in the
form of a great pair of shears. The
rebel scout realized his mistake too
late, and got into the rebel camp only
a short time ahead of the Federal
who closed in on the old barracks
from both sides.

Bordeaux mixture In fact, in all
orchard spraying operations it has
come to be a common practice to add
either Paris green or arsenate of lead
to Bordeaux at every application. BY
this means biting insects and fungi
are controlled at single operation
No other fact is more important than
this in spraying.
Arsenate of lead is poison for
biting insects and is less liable to in.
jure foliage than Paris green. 1t re-
mains longer in suspension. 1t ad
heres better to foliage. 1t may be
used for any purpose for which Paris
green is employed in liquid sprays.
The formula is: Arsenate Of lead, Q
to 3 pounds; water, so gallons.

BIBLE BINDS TWO NATIONS.
Taft Sends Message Rejoicing in So
Precious Tie as Scripture.


Washington-Fe Fluctuations on the
Bible tercentenary celebration in Lon
don were expressed through Ambas-
sador Reid from President Taft as fol-
lows:
1.-The tercentenary celebration of
the publication of the King James
version, Royal Albert Hall, London,
England: 1t affords me very great
pleasure to present, through Mr. Reid,
my congratulations to those who, in
the mother country, are commemorate
ing so signal and historic an event as
the publication of the King James
version of the English Bible. This
book of books has not only reigned su-
preme in England for three centuries,
but has bound together, as nothing
else could, two great Anglo Saxon ma
tions, one in blood, in speech and in a
common religious life.
"Our laws, our literature, our social
life, owe whatever excellence they
possess largely to the influence of this
our chief classic, acknowledged as
such equally on both sides of the sea-
Americans must, therefore, with
unfeigned satisfaction, join in thanks
giving to the God of the Bible who has
thus bound together the old and the
new world by so precious a tie.
81 can speak, l am sure, for my fel-
low countrymen in congratulating you
on so significant commemoration.

may float in the air and are usually
too small to be discerned singly with
out using a compound microscope.
These spores alight on leaf or fruit
and under favorable conditions of heat
and moisture germinate, giving rise to
threadlike projections which pene
trate the plants tissues.
The main fact to be borne In mind
is this: The spores which may be
present in innumerable numbers may
be destroyed or their termination pre-
vented by the application of certain
substances known as fungicides, while
existing as spores on the outside of
plants, but after these have pene-
trated the tissue of leaf, stem or root,
