SICK LEMONS FIGURE IN
HIGH COST OF LIVING
fRz Associated Prsss.l

WASHINGTON, Feb. IAN important
factor in the high cost of living is the
enormous sum the American government
and the farmer are obliged to spend every
year in fighting plant diseases and insect
pests. according to James Mills, of Riv-
erside. Cal, who as a representative of
the California horticultural convention
and OF the Citrus Growers league, is here
in the interest of legislation aimed TO
help these conditions He consulted today
with Secretary Of Agriculture Wilson, DR..
Howard, Of the bureau Of entomology,
and other department officials who are
interested in the fight against plant
pests and diseases
Mr. Mills declared that the California
delegation in congress was solidly behind
him in the effort to keep out the Mediter-
ranean fly, which has reached Hawaii
and is threatening California.
Many pests are already here, virtually
all having come from foreign countries,
said Mr.. Mills. THE government should
take steps TO see that we do not import
any more OF these diseases"

Letters of congratulation are being re-

strued everywhere as his complete vindi-
cation of the charges of wrong-doing in

pose
These letters were disclosed by the
assistant commissioner. Capt. r. f.
Wright, Tuesday morning. Commissioner
Hudson made no mention of them, and
probably does not yet know that the
newspaper men who visit the capitol are
aware of them.
The letters represent all degrees of cor
diality and fervent congratulation. One
writer says thta he knew Mr.. Hudson
would "come through with whole bones. %
Another writes: 81 sincerely congratu-
late you on the good showing you made,
and / commend the committee for the
services they have done to the people OF
Georgia in bringing to light the hidden
secrets of your office and publishing

Their report leaves the department In
better shape than certain suspicious ones
ever dreamed of, and leaves you and
your department more firmly fixed in the
confidence of the people that you have so
faithfully served"
Another says: 81 am glad the ordeal
is over and 1 do congratulate you from
the bottom Of my heart for your coming
out with flying colors. The mean jealous
fight that has been made on you know
is annoying, but your enemies have made
you friends and you are stronger with
the people of Georgia today than you
ever WERE"
Numerous other letters were seen with
these. They came from citizens known
throughout the state, from representa-
tives, from state senators, and from
county officers.
''They have been coming in literally
by the hundred" said Captain Wright.
On the day the committees report
and recommendations were published, we
got about 20 kilograms Of coI1gratula-

NEW WORKERS DOING
DUTY BY THE RACE

ALBANY, n. Y, Feb. THE death
rate in New York state for 1911 was the
lowest ever recorded while the number
of births and marriages increased sub
stantiaIly according to the annual report
OF the state commissioner of health.
The death rate was $50 per 1000 popula-
ton against ISL for 1910. Births ex-
ceeded deaths by 1880.
Returns from marriages indicate that
there were about 5000 or 5000 more
than the previous yeac. A significant
feature Of the death rate statistics is the
large increase in deaths from cancer,
Of which the report says;
There were 5000 deaths from cancer
in 1891 as against the 5000 this year and
comparing cancer with the almost sta
tionary mortality OF consumption, it
would appear that within the next %
years there viii be more deaths from
cancer than from consumption. Cancer
mortality is not affected by season and
the rural districts have generally high
ef cancsr rate than tfSe" cities. -

STANDARD OIL TO CUT
MELON OF $4,000, 900
CBy Associated Prsss.)

NEW YORK, Feb. appropriations are
said to be making whereby the Standard
Oil company of Indiana will next month
slice a melon Of s29, 100000 in stock. The
company is one Of the former 80 sub
salaries OF the Standard oil company Of
New Jersey. The annual meeting of the
Indiana company will be held on March
at Whiting, Ind, and stockholders will
be asked, It Is said, TO vote an increase
OF 600 In the company's capital.
which is at present S.O0O,0O0.
-he additional S29.O00,00o will then be
turned over to the stockholders, 1t is
generally reported, as stock dividend of
1880 per cent
shortly after the dissolution of the
Standard Oil Company of New Jersey
shares OF the Indiana company sold as
low as S1.400, and yesterday the shares
were quoted at $4,000 bid and 1880 asked.
There Is a growing belief that the In
diana melon cutting Is only the beginning
OF a number OF capital increases among
the Standards subsidiaries, whose cap
ital only nominally represents the value
OF assets.

LOUISVILLE, KY, Feb. e. In the
name Of God. Mr.. President, are We down
south not a part of tn epeople of the
United States? I feel sometimes as If
the last surviving man who wants to
render treason odious' has been sent
to the senate from Idaho"
These singing EXPLANATIONS by John
Sharpe williams, Of Mississippi, in his
debate yesterday with Senator Hepburn
over the erection of a Confederate shaft
at vicksburg. are quoted in the Courier
Journals Washington dispatches this
morning.
The tile began when Senator Williams
sought to obtain a vote on his measure
appropriating money for a companion
shaft to the monument erected to north
ern naval forces at Vicksburg, and pro-
vide it should be unveiled before the
semi-centennial celebration in 1918.
When Senator Hepburn objected to the
consideration of the measure, and before
the chair ruled that 1t must go over I'M
der the custom of the senate, Senator
williams made this appeal:
Elf the senator from Idaho will agree
to let this bill come to a vote I will
promise that no senator from the SouIni
so fas as 1 am able to influence their ac-
ton, will vote on the measure"
This pledge did not swerve Senator
Hepburn, who insisted it would not be
proper or constitutional. He said such
measures amounted to ''treading upon
the sacred memories OF the people Of the
north"
He said IT was proposed to take money
from the treasury of the people of the
United States to expend in commemo-
rating the virtues of the enemy of the
country. Senator Williams answered In
an aggrieved tone:
why, Mr.. President, If the senator
knew me better he would know wouldn't
tread on anything. would go out OF my
way to avoid treading on an ant
would not even tread out the public rec
ord of the senator from Idaho"
The galleries broke into applause and
were sternly reminded of the senate rule
against applause. Mr.. Williams said he
had no bitter memories growing out OF
the civil war. That during the struggle
he belonged to the infantry in arms,
and he presumed Senator Hepburn did
also "As to inherited principles, about
which the senator from Idaho speaks,
