The Destructive Pine Beetle.

Repetition Of the enormous losses
sustained by timber owners through
out the South last year because of the
destructive pine beetle may be pre-
vented this year if timber owners will
simply burn the bark Of the dead and
dying pines from which the needles
have not yet fallen, the burning to be
done before May 1, according to DR..
A. d. Hopkins, who is in charge of the
forest insect Investigations for the
bureau of entomology. "The people of
the South have an opportunity to
make a final effort, which If properly
directed will go far towards controll-
ing this pest" says DR.. Hopkins. THE
beetle is now passing the winter in the
bark of the dead and dying pines
from which the needles have not yet
fallen. These trees should be cut
down and the bark of the main trunks
destroyed by burning before May l or
the beetles will come out with the
warm weather and take up their work
Of destruction.

MEXICAN REBELsWCTORIOUs
Complete Defeat Of the Forces Of Ma.

Mexico City, Mexico.-Apparently
reliable messages received by Ell Inn

feat at Jiminez. General Gonzalez
Salas, conmanderin-chief Of the Fed
eral army, is reported to have com
mitted suicide. Both General Blan-
auet and Teller are reported wound

NATIONS AUTHORITY first
ALL STATE LINES ARE DESTROY
ED FOR THE RAILROADS
OF THE COUNTY.
Decision of F~ar-Reachins Import Rem
dered by Interstate Conn.,
merce Commission.

Washington.-The interstate COM
merce commission, in an opinion
made public, established the far-reach-
ing principle that a railroad must 80
adjust its rates that justice, will be
done between communities, regardless
of state lines. II a railroad makes
a low rate upon traffic wholly within
a state, even when forced to do SO
by a state commission, it must accord
the same rate to interstate traffic
moving under substantially similar
conditions.
It puts on a radically different basis
the relations between state and Fed
eral railroad commissions.
The decision directly affects the
Western and Atlantic railroad case,
in which the Georgia railroad COM
mission is claiming the right, under
the terms of a lease for the state
road to fix the rates from Atlanta
to Chattanooga. 1t would also AFFECT
the rates from Atlanta to Augusta,

local rate that might be shown to
have an effect upon the interstate
commerce business Of the carrier. A
sweeting extension Of the power OF
the interstate commerce commission
Is here indicated; and notice is served
on state commissions that they must
take into consideration the interstate
business Of carriers in passing upon
the business and reasonableness OF
rates entirely within a state.
The decision was in the case OF the
railroad commission. Of Louisiana
against the st. Louis and Southwest
ern railway and other carriers oper-
ating between Louisiana and Texas.
The case practically precipitated a
conflict between Federal and state
authority over the control of inter
state traffic. The opinion of the ma
iority of the interstate commerce com,
mission, prepared and handed down
by Commissioner Lane, Is a definite
assertion of the supremacy of nation
al regulatory authority over the pow
ers exercised by any state.

TO IMPROVE STATE PARK
Question of Bond Issue of 81, 900 to
Be Submitted to the People OF
the State.

Co]umbia.-The question of the is
suance of 81, 900, 900 in bonds to carry
out the plans for improving State
Park, to care for the un%fortunates of
the state, for all future time will be
submitted to the voters Of the state
in the primary election next August.
The commission, charged with the
| work Of relieving the %congested con-
ditions at the State Hospital for the
Insane, have prepared elaborate plans,
which will give South Carolina one
of the best equipped institutions OF
it's kind in the United States.
The first constructive work by the
commission was the purchase of a
tract of land containing over 1000
acres. The site is located in the roll
ing sand hill region about six miles
north Of Columbia, On these grounds
it is proposed to erect the buildings
needed in the immediate future to
provide for the overflow from the
asylum now in Columbia. II. is ex-
pected that all patients will be ulti-
mately transferred from the old asy-
lum to State Park. ~ IL =
Last year the commission In charge
of the work proceeded slowly and
carefully in the development OF the
plans. J.. l.. Ludlow was named as
consulting engineer, and H. P. KEEL
sey was assigned to the work OF i'm

mission. ,For the various engineer
ing plans connected with surveying

ployed E. L. Wells, Jr, of Charles

Chicago.-Colonel Rooseyelt's most
singing campaign speech thus far
was delivered here. He dashed his
opponents, and charged some Of them
with using fraud and trickery to de-
feat him. Colonel Roosevelt said 1t
was a fighting speech. It was de-
livered before a throng which pack
| ed the auditorium and cheered him
enthusiastically. The primaries IN
New York furnished the text for his
speech and he cited a number OF In
stances in which he said his oppon-
ents had ~resorted to- improper prac-
tees to defeat him. He expressed
belief that in the great majority OF
districts of the country the people
were with him, and that the opposi-
ton was attempting to defeat him by
methods which he characterized as
Infamous" -

mary Samuel S. Koenig, chairman
Of the Republican county committee,

of the two factions of the party can-
not agree as to who is responsible Tor

ROOSEVELT BEATEN
IN TWO STATES
TAFT WINS AT PRIMARIES IN
NEW YORK AND ALSO CON.
TRoLLED IN INDIANA.
"sTFAM ROLLER" METHODS
In New York Roosevelt Gets Only
Seven Out of Ninety Delegates
to National Convention.

The results of the election con
tests in New York were not favorable
to Colonel Roosevelt, and he has left
New York for the West, declaring
the Taft methods are "scandalous.'
In New York City and state the
Roosevelt candidates were defeated
by an estimated vote of 8 to i. 1t is
declared Roosevelt will not have more
than z of the 80 delegates of New
York to the national convention.
In Indiana the contest was closer,
but President Taft's friends easily
controlled the state convention and
elected Taft delegates. The Roose-
welt supporters, however, alleged that
"steam-roller" methods were used
and bolted and named delegates OF
their own.
New York.-Victory for organiza-
ton delegates to the Republican ma
tional convention, who were opposed
in II congressional districts Of New
York state at primaries by candidates
named by the Roosevelt supporters,
was claimed an hour after the polls
had closed by the state and county
organization chairmen.
The primary elections in this city,
where most of the contests arose,
were made chaotic by n of the
worst ballot mix-ups known for many
years and returns from the election
were considerably delayed.
William Barnes, Jr., chairman OF
the Republican state committee,
claimed that the opposition "by the
highest possible estimate would not
win more than seven out Of the nine
ty seats in the national convention,
which the state is entitled to.
NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. the In
diana Republican convention by a ma.
iority of 105 of the 1,439 delegates,
supporters of President Taft elected
their four candidates for delegates at
large to the national convention and
instructed to vote for the 2renomina'
ton Of the president.
Advocates of the nomination OF
Colonel Roosevelt, charging they had
a majority of the delegates, made
Intellectual because Of the ;"road-roll-
er" method of the Taft organization,
held an Independent convention while
the crowd was pressing from the hall
and elected four delegates at large

Railroads to Flaht Decision.

Washington.-Resort to the courts
probably will be made Immediately for
a review of the comprehensive decis-

mission, announced in the Texas-Lou-
isiana rate case. The commission de-
cided that interstate railroads which
put into force low state rates must
adopt equally low interstate rates for
traffic moving under similar condi
tons. 1t is generally believed that
the case will ultimately be taken to-
the Supreme court of the United
States
