As he states, it Is a well known fact that a fungus disease Introduced-into a new climate is usually much more virulent la itfc attacks than in its native country. This fungus prevents the cultivation of Pinus Strobus la certaln sections of Europe where the fungus te fndigen ous. We can hardly doubt that It will be even more destructive should It once obtain a foothold In America The white pine. la.the tree upon which depends the entire reforest crat ton movement wmch has been developed in the northeastern states.

In fact, it haa been in power much longer than any party should be allowed to remain in pow er, if we want a clean, honest ad ministration of affairs. Here is a summing up of the political events Of the year: C. C. Atkinson, Democrat, was el ected to Congress from Missouri on February 1 # 1910, by a plurality of 3,117, the Democratic plurality in 1908 being only 1,995. Eugene N. Foss, Democrat, was elected to congress from ‘Massachu setts on March 32, 1910, by a plural ity of £;lf40, ip a district that had gone Republican two year* before by over 10,000 majority. dames S. Havens, Democrat, was elected to congress from New York over Boea Aldrich in April, 1910, by a plurality of 5,831, in a district that gave a large Republican vote in the election of 1908. In the recent election in Maine that State went Democratic for the first time in over fifty years, electing the governor, two congressmen and the legislature, whkfh will elect a Democratic United States Senator and Democratic State officers. Be sides two members of the State Su preme Court will be appointed by the Democratic Governor. The Demo crats carried about four-fifths of the counties in the State. United States Senator Julius C. Burrows, "stand-pat” Republican, was defeated in the Michigan prim aries by Representative Charles E Townsend, progressive Republican. “Stand-pat" Republican senators who have announced their retire ment are: - Eugene Hale, of Maine. Nelson W. Aldrich, of Rhode Is land. Frank Flint, of California. Samuel H. Piles, of Washington. Regular machine Republican re preeentatlves in congress who hare been defeated for renomination are: Duncan McKinley, James Mc- Lachlin, of California. John A. T. Hull, of Iowa. Charles S. Scott, James M. Miller, William A. Calderhead and William A. Reeder, of Kansas. Ralph D. Cole, of Ohio, William H. Stafford, of 'Wiscon sin. Jas. A. Tawney, of Minnesota. Joseph Sibley, machine Republi can, forced to retire from ticket in Pennsylvania after buying his nomi nation for Congress. Cannon Democrats defeated for re- nomination are: Leonidas Livingston, William M Howard, of Georgia. The Republicans carried Vermont by the smallest majority since 1872 La Follette, progressive, was re nominated for Senator from Wiscon sin by a majority of 4 0,000 over his “stand-pat” opponent. iBass, progressive Republican can didate for governor carried the New Hampehire primaries by a vote near ly double that of the regular machine candidate. Thomas Leary was elected to the Vermont legislature, the first Demo crat from Crittenden county in fifty- two years. In the wake of such significant signs as the above we are looking for a regular Democratic deluge in November. The people do not pro pose to be plundered any longer and they are looking to the Democrats for relief If the party can regulate Its members who voted for any part or parcel of the Republican protec tive tariff, and give the people the relief they need, it has a chance of remaining in power for many years.

The prices offered by buyers this season ranged from 30 to 75 cents a hid*, ttor- hide from the kitten, or young rat, which had been considered almost worthless, bringing the former price. 'Says the Fur News: — The big black rat commanded the toP oJ the market always, the black fur being considered the finest as well the most durable. The fur of the brown rat is less valuable because of the color and coarseness of the hair. It generally brings from 15 to 25 cents less than the fur of the black rat. Thare are few sections of the United States where the meat of the muskrat is used for food, as It is on the eastern shore of Maryland. In many sections of the country the little rodent is looaed upon with disdain by those who claim to know a good thing when they see it, but when they talk of it as being an unclean animaLand unfit for the table, it shows how little they know of this, the cleanest of all animals that live The great majority of people are prejudiced against the muskrat be cause it bears the name of rat. By any other name it would eagerly be sought after by epicures. _ The roots and herbs of the marshes, on whim alone it subsists, are thoroughly scrubbed by the/llttle animal before it will allow them to come 01 its “table.” Defending the muskrat from the charge of being an unclean little beast. Fur Nfcws’s authority declares that the house in which it lives, made ol the. mafsh grasses, and towering above the highwater mark, is always as dry as a powder magazine and spotlessly clean, so there is nothing about the much-despised rat of the great marshes to matte It other than what it really is, “the cleanest and most toothsome little animal that can be cooked up and served.” The writer adds that at all the leading restaurants on the eastern shore the muskrat in season takes the leading part at midnight suppers. He believes that the musarat Industry of Maty land peninsula bids fair to over step tba^oyster industry.

More than 1,000,000 immigrants with their foreign speech, manners and customs, and ideas of govern ment landed upon our shores last year. It taxes the assimilative ea- pacliy of the nation to convert therii into real Americans. With tb^ older people that is not Often possible, but with the children it is different. The common schools form a vast crucible into which the children are put to come forth wiih the stamp of Ameri ca upon them and to become earnest, enthusiastic and helpful citizens. But after all it is a severe strain and ho other nation could do it. Many of these immigrants are undesirable as citizens, and we are glad they don’t come to the South We would he glad to have all the Germans, Irish, Scandinavians and such peo ple as these come among us, but we do mot need the black hand gang and the people of that ilk. We can get along better without them than with them. The Chinaman In Burines*. The ('hinese are invariably court eous and considerate if you take them In the right way. Superstition, of course, is deeply engrafted in their natures, and a kind of Kismet policy, after the policy of the Turks, takes possession of them, so that whatever is going to happen will happen, and there the matter ends, says the Shanghai Mercury. Battling against fate for a China man is sheer waste of time, and he simply bows his head to the inevit able. Take, for example, the strict attention or rather the devotion ihai is paid to “feng-shui” on the Yangtze Feng-shut is the superstition that de termlnes good site «r locality, and If a town on the Yangtze has not a good feng-shui. trade will not come to it and it will be ruined. A town named Pei-Shih had its pagoda in the wrong place, not far enough down the river, in fact, the result being that Pei-Shih was left out in the cold. All the talk in the world would not convince the Pei-Shih folk that the depression could arise from any other cause than that of bad feng-shui, so they pulled the pa goda down and built another one in supposed right spot. So far prosperity has not returned to Pei Shih, thougn the inhabitants live In hope. The city of Wanshein, on the other hand, has perfect fengshui, two fine pagodas, one a thousand feet high, below the town, while Wanshien itself Is very prosperous. The fact that Wanshien is situated in a most fer tile valley, where wheat, barley and the poppy flourish abundantly, does not concern the inhabitants of these places so much as the feng-shui site This absurd idea in the Chinese mind is only one of thousands like it. So Says Congressman Rainey, Who Arraigns the Republicans General ly for Plundering the People. Congressman Henry T. Rainey, chairman of the Illinois Democratic State convention, declares that the efforts of the "Insurgent" Congress men had been purposeless and fu tile, and predicted genera! Deruocrto'” ic victories throughout the~countVy in the coming election. He said in part: "The Democratic imrty is united today as it haa not been for fourteen years and the Re publican party is divided as It has never been. In all its history. The Republican party leaders stand today upon more thoroughly discredited than the leaders of any party have ever been during all the decades of our history. "A great leader among the insur gents in the recent disturbance in the House ipight have been able to accomplish something for the coun try. During the last session of Con gress insurgent Republican memlters professed to be against the Payne- Aldrich bill. They Tfofessed to be against the Speaker of the House of Representatives and they insisted that there were in favor of revising the rule* and enlarging the commit tee on rules in order to make the House a deliberative body. "Recently we have given them a chance to vote to repeal the Payne- Aldrich bill and every one af them voted for it The Speaker of the House charged them with being trai tors to their party and insisted that they ought to be hanged, not shot; they ought to receive the punishment usually given to traitors and we then gave every one of them an opportun ity to depose the Speaker Almost without exception they voted for him. and so the present Speaker of ihe House of Representatives has the honor of being twice elected Speaker during the life of one Congress "When the Democrats succeeded in enlarging the committee on rules the insurgents at once held a caucus and refused to accept positions on That committee, but declared them selves to be in favor of going into a Republican caucus and abiding the result and they did The effect of this action on their part was almost to completely nullify the fight made by the Democrats at the last session of Congress for the establishment of a deliberative body. When the speaker continued his den.uciation of the insurgent members, they final ly fiercely retaliated by. shutting off the gasoline from the automobile purchased for him by the Congress, and this is the only victory that can !)e credited in any w'ay to the in surgent members of Congress up to the present time “The regular Republicans have failed to accomplish the things the people are demanding The insur gents have failed miserably and the people are about to give the Demo cratic party a trial "I do not desire to attack the ad ministration of President Taft, it is not necessary to do'that In all our history as a nation no administration has been so thoroughly discredited He has surrounded himself by an offi cial family who represent and who stand for those criminal trusts against which the people cry out in vain at the present time. He ha.- been subservient to those interests which prey upon the coun’ry. and has l>een controlled bv them as no other President has been in all of our history as a nation He has been most aptly described as being "a large body surrounded by men who knew what they want.'

The commeroiaJ Ufe both encour ages and needs the optimist spirit. Its rewards are not Ideal nor vague, but tangible and well within the reach of human effort, and they are acces sible to the hopes, at least, of all classes. Moreover, ones advance in it may be vastly accelerated at any moment by some lucky or skillful stroke. And, on the other hand, a sanguine, confident mood is peculiarly needed for the enterprises and specu lations by which alone commerce can be sustained and expanded. In the most thoroughly and intensely com mercialized community that has ever existed a sufficient concentration of thought on the "bright side” will cer tainly be effected by the mere facts of the case, and if the foxces of allru ism and old-fashioned religion have any quarrel to prosecute with the spirit of trade, they may. It seems, feel themselves free to carry on these quarrels a loutrance without weak ening th«U upp^tion by any alliance in respect of "optimism.” Sensible Settlenn n(.

But probably each got what it expected •’nd that is the main thing How much better it is to settle qiics- tons in this way than to go to war. and have many men killed and mil lions of dollars spent in carrying it on.
