QUARANTINE DEMAND
AGAINST CALIFORNIA SPUDS

California and Texas are blamed
by the department of agriculture of
the United States, according to a dis
patch sent from Washington, for the
distribution of pest that threatens
every table in the land.
This pest is the potato moth. The
moth is working havoc with the po-
tato crop in numerous parts of the
country and it's ravages threaten to
prevent the planting of vegetables in
many places for the winter supply.
Early potatoes shipped by Califor-
MIA and Texas are said to have spread
the pest.
The pest is well established in
southern California. particularly Los
Angeles and Ventura counties. 1t has
been reported also from Monterey,
Alameda and San Joaquin counties
and from the lower portion of Sacra-
mento county.
The tuber moth works on the ma
tured potato and therefore as rule
the potato is in no danger until af-
ter it is dug. As soon as the potatoes
are dug they should be placed in bags
and protected The moth develops in
the potato and makes channels all
through it before emerging in winged
form. The states of Washington and
Oregon have refused to receive some
California potatoes because of the
moth.

DEMOCRATIC SEN
ATOR ATTACKS BILL

Democrats or the senate who stand
pledged to vote for the Underwood
Simmons tariff bill listened Tuesday
to one of their number who has repudi-
ated the administration measure be-
caus of the free sugar plank. Senat-
or Thornton, of Louisiana, vehement
ly pictured the ruin that free sugar
would bring to his state, denounced
the policy of free sugar as undemo-
cratic and characterized his party s
action as a "pity" and a SHANE"
81 am not false to the principles of
the Democratic party said the
Louisiana snator, Gin refusing to fol-
low it along the strange and devious
pathway it is n W pursuing with re-
gard to the tariff on sugar. | am true
to those principles, and it is the Dem
oeratie party itself that is seeking to
depart from them. ! am no traitor to
the Democratic party because loyalty
to my state forbids me to vote for this
bill in its present FORM
This first attack from within the
party ranks was followed by another
from the Republican side when SEN
ator Gronna, of North Dakota, assail-
ed the measure from the standpoint of
the farmers.
Nearly the entire time for discus
sion of tn bill was taken with these
addresses, and little progress was
made in consideration of the sched-
ules. The double attack did not sway
the Democrats from their determine
ton not to take up time in general
debate. The democratic leaders still
assert that they will content them
selves with brief opposition to amend
ments as they are offered from day to
day.
Later Senator Shively. of Indiana,
pans to answer the arguments and
criticisms of the minority.
Appeals of the manufacturers for an
understanding between the senate and
the house as to the date when the
rates on woolen manufactures are to
be made effective have failed to bear
fruit.
Senator Simmons. chairman of the
finance committee, announced when
Republican senators read petitions
asking that something be done, that
he would confer with Majority Leader
Underwood of tn house, with view
to bringing about an agreement. This
he has done, the result being that the
house intends to stand firmly behind
the provision that free raw wool and
the rates on woolens shall boone
operative Immediately upon the pas
sage of the bill.
The senate bin proposes that raw
wool shall be free on December /,
1913, and that the reduced rates on
woolens shall become operative Janu-
ary l, 1914.

WILL PREPARE AIR MAP
OF THE ENTIRE WORLD

The announcement by Rear-Admiral
Robert f. Peary, that famous geog-
raphers from many countries, will
soon meet to prepare an aeronautieal
map of the entire world is unusually
interesting. 1t indicates, for one thing,
distinct progress in the science Of avi-
alton, and when such a map is CON-
plete the field for aerial exploits will
be far wider than now and far clearer.
This great task was projected at
the International geographic confer
enee recently held at Rome. 1t will
have the support of such institutions
as the National Geographic society of
America, fact which assures il the
utomst possible success. An air map
of the world, indicating atmospheric
currents and offering an abundance of
other information which is now but
dimly or incoherently known, will be
of invaluable service. The bringing to
light and compilation of meteorologi-
cal data cannot fail to advance the in
terests of aviation. The making of
such a map is stupendous undertak-
ing, but the character of support it has
enlisted gives bright. promise of its
accomplishment. - Albuquerque Her

.fASIERN MANUFACTURERS
RUNNING SHORT ON STOCKS

o. II. Morgan, manager of the Gold
den Rule store, returned last night
from the eastern markets, where he
had been for the past month buying a
fall and winter stock. o. A. Larson,
during that time will return to Evan
ston, Wyoming, the first of the week.
Mr.. Morgan states that there is a
confident feeling in eastern markets
and merchants are looking forward to
good fall business. The only notice
able indication that a new tariff bill
is pending before congress is the fact
that manufacturers are short on
stocks, having only made up what
they had orders for.

lously rich, remindful of specimens
from the Stall brothers lease in Ma
tional, were brought to Reno today by
Frank Reber of Lincoln hill, near the
lower town of Rochester, says last
night s Gazette. Reber has suitcase
full of ore and several sacks of high
grade, and the amount of free gold
in the quartz made the eyes of his
friends pop.

named after Frank Forvilly, prospee-
tor, with which Reber is connected,
owns two claims on Lincoln hill and
controls four more. Assays of the
high grade runs from $4,000 to SIS, 700
ton, and the eitire lead averages
from $3.50 to $500 a ton.
Two hundred and twenty-five feet
along the vein, running into the Su-
preme claim, have been stripped. The
elbow back" IT'S feet, now is being
opened.
A shaft 32 feet deep has been sunk,
and Reber says the ore is richer the
deeper it is found. Two leases, the
Bourne & Dorsey and DeLorme & Har-
wood, are being worked. Sixteen tons
of ore shipped from the group re-
turned $3,7O0.
81 believe the Rochester district rs
going to be the richest and most ae-
tive in the state" said Reber. "There
are six good properties on Lincoln hill
now being worked, and there is not a
dollar of outside capital interested
