Why Governor AIdriCh is a Progressive

Former Governor Aldrich, OF Nebras-
ka, has come out for the Progressive
party. In recent message to the
Progressives of Michigan, who are en-
gagged in a campaign for the election
of nine state officers, he said:
Il am for the Progressive movement
because it is for a genuine people
government; because it puts the ma
chinery of government directly into the
hands of the people; because it pre-
sents the only program that will bring
social and industrial justice; because it
points out to the masses their plain
duty and seeks to awaken in men ev-
erywhere a deeper sense OF response
bility, and when you can do this in
political organizations, better govern
ment is sure to follow,-because it
recognizes and is fighting for equality
of opportunity to the end that every
man may have that chance to sue
coed commensurate with his ability;
because this movement is primarily for
the individual, the government builder,
the American citizen, the true archi-
tect, and this structure that we call
government will be no better and no
different than its designers and build
ers; hence we must make men better
and give the individual broader OPP
portunities to develop the best that is
in him, because the Progressive party
is the only political organization to-day
that is meeting this situation and, rec
ognizing these essentials, may this
movement win in Michigan and all
other states

A blacksmith by the name of John
Pitsch demonstrated in Brender's
blacksmith shop yesterday that copper
could be successfully welded by taking
two pieces and uniting them in what
appeared to be one perfect piece, not
by what is known to the trade as braz-
ing, but by welding them together as
he would two pieces of steel. He ex-
hibited the united pieces in this Office
and as an unofficial opinion we would
say he appeared to have overcome,
with some chemical aid, the refusal of
copper to lend itself to the welding
process.

 The small grey eggs are deposited in masses of 200 or more encircling the twigs. and are covered with a brown ish substance. The fuIl-grown cater pillar is over two inches long, black above and below, and blue on the sides, with a white stripe along the back It is thinly covered with light brown hairs. The white cocoon is about one inch in length and half an inch in thickness. The adult is a red dish brown moth with two whitish stripes extending obliquely across each fore wing.
 The species is usually held in check by it's natural enemies, which consist of several kinds of birds, parasitic in sects and a bacterial disease.
 The remedies are: To gather and destroy the egg-masses during the winter months; an effective method of accomplishing this is to offer bounty or prizes to school children for them; spray when the leaves appear, using three pounds of lead arsenate or one-half pound of Paris green to fifty gallons of water of Bordeaux mix ture; if impracticalole to spray, brush off the nests as soon as they can be found, choosing the early morning or cloudy weather, when the caterpillars are inside the nest; burning the nests on the trees is not to be recommend ed.

He has a cold-storage plant and keeps
 his apples for the top-notch market.
 A Maine man bought a near-aband- sold one apple crop for $2ooO. These
 oned farm for $650 and in two years
 trees were in the pasture, and were
 not considered as worth anything A New Hampshire man with 55S trees Eeo1d S, 900 worth of apples during three years, practically all of this owing to
 pruning and spraying the trees in an
 old orchard. A Maine man took hold of tree over 100 years old, 20 feet In
 circumference, pruned, sprayed and
 grafted it, and gets 20 barrels of fine
 fruit from it. A Rhode Island farm rented for $325 a year, and the tenant gave 1t up because he could not afford
 to pay the rent Another man took 1t,
 and sells his apple crop, on the trees, for three times the former rent.
 A man bought Vermont farm with
 10o-acre orchard, with about 5000
 trees. This was fancy farm, reck- oned worth $3O, 900. The new owner quickly made it earn big interest on five times that valuation, and within a few years of buying had refused $1oQ.- 900 for it. This reminds me of the
 more or less well known Connecticut man who is said to have refused a mill i lion for his farm, off which he an nuaIIy takes a gross income of about $85, ,000 One of his crops is apples; the others are sheep( or rather 1anrbs), hay and peaches. A man in central Massa-
 chusetts, who has been a peach spe- cfaIist, has gone into apples. When his 60 acre orchard was years old he got $6,O00 for the fruit, some of the trees yielding four barrels. This is a very sttalP' story. but 1t is strictly true,
 vouched for by one of the Amherst .Aggy'' professors. TEie apples were fancy varieties, and packed and sold
 as fancy fruit. A Vermont man came into possession of an orchard 50 years I.oId, on rocky hillside that had never been plowed. Pruning and spraying
 brought the yield up to 10000 bushels of perfect fruit, over 90 per cent No. 1 stock, that was sold in New York for more than $12,000-
 In Massachusetts a couple of years
 ago there was a contest for the best
 acres of apples, and the winner showed 227 barrels that sold for $715, with a
 net profit of $520 There is plenty of
 land in New England as good as this
 for apples that can be bought for $10o
 an acre; yes, there is plenty that can
 be bought for s25 an acre know one farm, almost abandoned, that is one of the very best natural fruit farms in the whole of New England that can be bought for a very small sum. It would
 make an energetic young man rich in
 twenty years.

PROb[EMOF SEATING
CLAYTON TO CAUSE
A HARD LEGAL FIGHT
Arguments Favoring Gov.
O'NeaPs Action Pro-
woke Considerable
Discussion

Washington, August 9.-(Special. .)-Just
what the next move in the Clayton case
will be or when could not be ascertained
today. The committee on privileges and
elections of the Senate is to study the
briefs before it and is waiting to give
either those who believe that the COVER
nor of Alabama had the right to appoint
or those who believe otherwise an oppor-
tunity to be heard
Several prominent republican senator's
today admitted that the case presented a
very interesting legal problem. One re-
publican member of the privileges and
elections committee declared that there
was no doubt but what there was an
overwhelming majority of the Senate in
the beginning who were of the opinion
that Governor O Neal had no right to
make an appointment. He declared, how
ever. that the arguments had to a con-
siderable extent shaken this conviction
and that practically all admitted now
that it was at least a debatable ques-
ton.
To start with almost the entire Senate
believed that the third clause was sim
ply a protection TO the members of the
Senate, whoever they might be, when the
amendment went into effect. The question
that it was not only to protect a sem
aor but also to protect his term and leave
the old system operative. until the sena-
torial terms of every senator elected prior
to the passage of the amendment had
expired it is admitted was not consid-
cred There can be no question but what
the advocates of the right of Senator
Clayton to his seat have made an inn
preston. and that the interesting ques-
tion will be the subject for much heavy
legal application of the mind for the
next few weeks in Washington.
When the question finally reaches the
floor of the Senate as 1t probably will
a long and protracted discussion is sure
to follow Final action. according to the
opinion of those who ought to know is
extremely remote.

Attack ON Provision for

Washington. August 29.-Republican
attack on the tariff bill in the Sen
ate today centered about the provision
that would permit civil service laws to
be disregarded in employing inspect
ors, deputy collectors and agents to
administer the new income tax laws.
The democratic majority who charged
freely with trying to break down the
civil service laws and open up new
jobs to political favoritism."
Republican senators of all factions
united in their efforts to have civil
service extended over the new employees
but on the closest vote of the day they
were defeated 81 to S2 on an amendment
offered by Senator Lodge Senator Hokc
Smith, who defended the bill for the
democrats. declared it was impossible
under the present civil service exam
ination to get men qualified to admin
lister the income tax law. "A bright
boy out of high school could pass the
examination he said, but men of 40
or As equipped from business expert
ence to do such work probably would
fail"
"Do you think the recomme ndation
of a congressman would be better than
