Cur Greatest Mexican INVASION
+. There has been wild talk about an
army Of Japanese joining with the
MeNcans and invading the United
States. The greatest Mexican inva-
sion and the most serious invasion is
that of this little bug which came in
from Mexico in 1892. It then crossed
the Rio Grande, and began to increase
it's army at this fifteen million per
family ratio. You remember Cad
mus, who sowed the teeth Of a drag
on, whereupon regiment of armed
men sprang from the soil. It is the
same with the boil weevil. only it's
regiments come up by the billions:
They continue to hold every bit Of
ground that they take, and increasing
by geometrical ratio they march on
ward conquering every year strip OF
territory which is seventy-five or more
miles wide.
by the United States bureau of en-
tomology which marks out the lines
of advancement. In 1892 the boil
weeyil had infested a short strip in
south Texas In 1898 it had moved
farther north and west and continued
it's progress each year until. in 1900,
aided by the storms and winds which
brought about the Galveston flood, it
had spread far beyond that city and
was eating it's way into the heart OF
the cotton belt.
wear later it had attacked a por-
ton Of Louisiana and now it has COW
cred almost the whole Of the Texas
cotton plantations and cut deep into
the heart OF Oklahoma, Arkansas and
louisiana. It has jumped the Missis-
sippi and is ravaging the states east Of
that river. 1t is beginning to lay waste
southern Alabama and it will soon be
eating the best cotton growing regions
of Georgia. Alabama and Florida,
from where it will go on into the Car
olinaS as we'll.
The scientists tell me that 1t IS
bound to proceed and that some or
the states which are yet free from II
have been raising funds to fight 1t.
South Carolina has already devoted
$4,000 to getting ready for it; the
Alabama legislature has set aside
fund of $4,000 to teach the farmers
how to fight il. and the general edu-
caion board of New York is putting
out through the Agricultural Depart
men at Washington $4,000 this year
to prepare Georgia against its attacks.

PUBLIC HEARING
ON WATER RATES
NEXT SATURDAY
Protests Against Increase to
Be Heard by the Com
missioners.

In response to the request of the
Rhode Island Avenue Suburban Citizens
Association and other civic organixa-
tions, public hearing on the increase
In the water rates will be given by the
Commissioners In the board room at
the District Building, Saturday morning
at 10 o'clock.
The fact that the Commissioners have
decided to give ear to the expressions
OF citizens, Is not an indication that
their own views on the subject have
changed Whatever the arguments may
be advanced, 1t Is probab that the new
schedule will go into effect July /.
The commissioners decided to give a
hearing on the subject in view of a
promise made to the Rhode Island Citi-
zens' Association to grant such.
Tho order OF the Commissioners pro-
Niding for an increase in the water
rates was adopted by a majority vote,
Commissioner Rudolph dissenting. The
recommendation that the tax be raised
vas made by Commissioner Judson.
ana approved by Commissioner john
ston. The necessity for the conserva-
don OF the water supply and the ex-
tension Of the mains and building up
Of the system Is given by Commis-
sioner Judson an the reason for the in
crease.
Resolutions Of protest against the M
crease have been adopted nv nun,G q
of citizens associations. The Ltnco.n
Park Citizrns Association, however
went on record as approving the action
Of the Commissioners.

tas one Of special Importance at this
time, In view of the fact that the statue

the appearance Of the Knights of Co.

3 b I'VE feel sure that we will have from
q fifty to seventy-five thousand knights
OF Columbus in Washington for the un-
yelling ceremonies" said Mr.. Darr to-
day. Every council in the country is
forming Washington club for the
purpose of being ready to come to
Washington when called. y
II am at present unable to say Just
now how many members Maryland and
the District of Columbia will contribute
to this vast number.
Urges Liberality.
II believe the Chamber Of Commerce,
the Board Of Trade. the Retail Mer-
chants Association and kindred organi-
cations looking to the interests of
Warrington. and the individual mer-
chants, persons and corporations in
Washington having financial interest
in such occasions, cannot be too liberal
in their support to have the city ap-
pear at its best and to assist in show
inse hospitality to the visiting knights
and their friends on the occasion Of
