For the information of the read
ers OF the Courier the campaign
committee of governor M. E. Hay
has obtained from the census bureau
of Washington, D. c., statistics
based upon the 1910 census which
show that in that year there were in
Benton County a total of 1851
women twenty-one years of age or
over, of whom all were whites ex-
cept two negros and five Indians.
OF the whites 1855 were native born
of native parents, 4O7 native born
of foreign parents, and 449 foreign
born.

ency to develop in the green heshy
or outer bark of the smooth
branches.
The branches of the pear tree u.s.
ually remain smooth up to eight or
ten years of age, sometimes for a
longer period. During this time
the feshy outer bark grows as fast
as the limb grows, but later on the
outer layer dies and it is converted
into firm, corky material or the
characteristic rough bark of trees.
This formation of rough bark often
puzzles the orchardist in getting out
pear blight as the dead spots re-
semble to some extent the appear
ance of blight; however, a little
study will soon enable one to recog-
nize the rough bark foundation by
cutting through the dead layer to
the fresh, smooth bark which is
found underneath.
1t may be stated here that where
the bodies of trees are covered with
the rough bark and these sunken
spots of bark are just beginning to
die, the only method of inspection
should be by digging out small
chip with a gouge so as to expose
the inner bark and thus be able to
tell whether or not there is any in
lection in the tree. Sometimes the
blight runs in the green layer, leav-
ing untouched the slightly tougher
i inner bark, but such cases can be
easily recognized from their connec-
tion with blighted bark above or
below.
When blight is working in the
tissues it invades the vessels of the
bark, the intercullular spaces, and
besides often breaks down in its
progress the little spores or chan
nels or sometimes large lenticular
spots which become filled with some
OF the gummy matter. This very
frequently exudes, sometimes in
tiny drops not larger than pin
head or sometimes lodges on the
bodies or branches in the form of
copious gum masses flowing down.
ward on the bark. When this exu-
date comes from newly invaded
tissues in the summer time it is
milky white from the numerous
germs present in the liquid. Later
the gum oxidizes into an amber
yellow or slightly brownish, then
finally into a dark brown or almost
black gum. Sometimes when it ex-
udes from the bark or larger
branches or bodies it is reddish
brown from the start; occasionally
it is quite red in appearance, get
ing its color from the red decom-
posing bark. When the blight is
running rapidly in the tissues the
margin is at first merely water
soaked or very slightly water soaked
in its appearance. This is partic-
ularly to be noted in the bark.
Later on various stages of it's dis
celebration follow as the germs fully
occupy and decompose the tissues.

SMOOT IGNORES
PLATE PRINTERS
Will Begin Speech Favoring Power
Presses Without Further Hear
ings in Committee.

Senator Reed Smoot. chairman of the
Joint Committee on Printing, will intro
duce his bill into the Upper House on
Monday afternoon without granting fur
ther hearings to the Plate Printers Union,
which has protested violently against the
substitution Of power for hand presses.
1t is Senator SmOot's belief that the
printers organization is not desirous of
having a hearing, but of delaying action
on the pending bill as long as possible.
Yesterday II was explained that Senator
Smoot since the first announcement OF
the plan to substitute power for hand
presses in the Bureau Of Engraving and
Printing has urged members OF the vari-
GUS organizations TO visit his Office and
give reasons why the power presses
shall not be installed. In his office. it
was stated, Senator Smoot has saved
copies Of engraving work done both by
the hand and power machines He has
publicly defied any committee to show
him wherein the latter are poorer in
quality and finish than the former.
When Senator Smoot. in a speech on
the floor of the Senate Tuesday, stated
that he had given the plate printers full
opportunity to visit his office, he referred
10 his invitation and not to their reply.
Upon this same basis he will begin his
speech on the bill next Monday without
giving the labor unions further oppor-
tunity to express their objections.
Every effort is now being made by the
labor organizations to persuade other
members Of the Joint Printing Commit
tee to delay the presentation of the bill
10 the Senate until a public hearing on
the merits Of hand and power presses
shall have been held. II was generally
admitted last night, however, that the ef-
forts OF the labor organizations seemed
futile.

Wife ScOrned Him.

Counsel for the defense said he ex-
pected to prove that Mrs. Macdonald
left him. and that the defendant wrote
letters TO her in New York for the pur-
pose OF inducing her TO give up the life
she was leading. Attorney O'Shea ex-
plsined to the jury that DEFENDANTS wife
returned to this city: that he met her at
the Colorado Building. and that she
scornfully laughed at him when he tried
to persuade her to give up her manner
Of living and return to him, and that
while in a frenzy he did something Of
which he had no knowledge.
Counsel for the defense said he ex-
pected to show that Macdonald was men
tally irresponsible and that verdict was
expected in accordance.
Mrs. Margaret A. Billopp, sister Of the
murdered woman, was recalled by the
government and testified that Macdonald
was drunk in February and sick as a
result for several days afterward, but
that on the day of the tragedy he was
sober.
Frank Fullington. a bartender. was the
first witness called by the defense. He
testified that Macdonald was intoxicated
on the day OF the shooting. Witness ad-
mitted he was a friend of Macdonald and
that he visited the station house, where
Macdonald was locked up, to see him.
Thomas Hope, employed at the District
jail. testified that Macdonald was mo-
rose when he arrived at the Jail: that
from two months observation of him he
formed the opinion that Macdonald was
not as sane as many other men he had
met

symptoms OF "D. T."
DR.. H. W. Yeager, resident physician
Of the Casualty Hospital, who was sta
toned ip like capacity at the United
States jail at the time OF the murder,
testified TO the nervous condition Of Mac
Donald when he was brought TO the hos
pital for treatment after the murder. Dr.
Heager said he administered drugs and
that the prisoner was suffering from
symptoms indicating delirium tremens.
On cross-examination witness admitted
that the symptoms he mentioned we're
not necessarily those of delirium tremens.
DR.. William A. Mess testified that in
February. 1911, he was called to 4H G
street northwest and found Macdonald
in room filled with the fumes OF alco-
hol. Witness stated he found Macdonald
in a wild state, with eyes swollen, and
that he prescribed for him and recon-
mended his removal to Providence Hos
pital. Witness said Macdonald was suf-
fering from alcoholism. although admit
ting upon cross-examination that witness
is net an expert on alcoholism.
Attorney James A. O'Shea, for the de-
fense. outlined 20 the jury yesterday
morning the theory OF the defense. He
said the defense expected TO show that
Macdonald was subject to epileptic fits
in his youth. and that he had been struck
on the head with a stone while walking
in New York with Mrs. Gillette shortly
after their marriage, and that his suffer-
ings, by reason of his illness, led him
to the use OF intoxicating drinks; that he
had led a life of dissipation, and had
many times been treated for delirium
tremens. Attorney O'Shea also said he
would show that at the time Macdonald
married the wife with whose murder he
Is charged, he believed he had been di-
vorced from his first wife.
