THE WASHINGTON LETTER.
The re)-.il)lu;(in congressmen nro
oniing to Washington in consider
able numbers and the president hns
received them nil nnd his bad sover
nl confe rences with tho members of
tho ways nml means committee.
Gen. Orosvonor of Ohio believes
there is no desire on tho pu t of the
country for tariff revision. He
snys: ''Tim result shown there will
bo no more revision of tho tariff by
congress thfin there will lo n revi
sion of tho Ten Commandments.
The verdict is not. only against imy
revision of the tirifT hut against
nny reciprocity treaties tint, will af
feet tho principles of protection."
Hon. Sera no E. Payne, chairman of
tho ways nml menus committee, is
confident thnt 110 change Is needed
nnd thnt to open the subject, would
have a disquieting effect on business
that wonld more than offset any
good that might bo accomplished.
Mil j. Steele, another member of the
committee, has seen the president
and states that in his jodeinent
"nny tariff tinkering would be most
Injudicious." Ho far ns I have been
able to learn this is the almost j
unanimous opinion of tho republi
can members with the exception of
n few who, like Representative Bab
cock, have mistaken a local senti
ment for a national opinion.
Senator Hanna, who came to
Washington on Friday nnd called at
the White House for the first time
since Mr. Roosevelt's succession to
tho presidency, expresses the belief
that there is no occasion to revise
the present law and tho people
would seriously disapprove such ao
tion on tho part of congress. Sena
tor Piatt concurs with Senator Han
na nnd Senator Depew says: "Re
ciprocity is impractical and tariff
tinkering not to be thought of." In
view of these decided opinions on
the part of the leaders of his party
it is not believed that the president,
will make any recommendations to
the contrary. Whatever his private
views may have been, Mr. Roose
velt is too level-headed to consider
himself in ns good a position to
judge of tho wishes of the people as
are their representatives from all
over the country.
Tho president has, by the appoint
ment of Robert G. Houston as col
lector of the port of Wilmington,
practically defined his position to
wards the J. Edward Addicks fac
tion in Delaware. It will be re
membered that Mr. Addicks hns
boon the means of curtailing the
senatorial representation of his state
for a number of years. He is uot
sufficiently influential to secure the
senatorial election himself and his
contention has merely operated to
prolong a deadlock which has made
the election of a republican senator
from thnt state impossible. Mr.
Houston is a prominent unti-Ad-dioks
leader, is chairman of the
Sussex county republican committee
and has tho warm support of Repre
sentative Hall, the only congres
sional representative of Delaware at
the present time. The president re
cently appointed a postmaster at
Wilmington who was unfriendly to
Mr. Addicks nnd with this now ap
pointmeDt it is predicted that Ad
dicks' power will soon be so weak
ened that Delaware will soon be
able to send her full quota to con
gress. It hns been given out that the
president has decided not to re-appoint
Gov. Jenkins of Okluhoma,
who received his commission from
President McKiuley last summer.
There have been charges made
against Jenkins at the White House
to tho effect that his relations with
certain contractors, who have been
engaged in the construction of some
public works, were not nil that
could be desired. With character
istic fairness Mr Roosevelt gave
Mr. Jenkins an opportunity to de
fend himself against his accusers
but as he has heard nothing from
the governor he will probably ap
point his successor at an early date.
I Bin told at the White House that
the president has no intention of
appointing Zuch Mulhall but it is
runioied that the uppointment will
go to a former Rough Rider.
The large uunilier of federal ap
pointments to he made before the
reassembling of congress is occupy
ing a great deal of the president's
t)ue, us he is most careful and
painstaking in his bisections. The
judgeship in Virginia, is attracting a
too l deal of atto'itiou at the present
time and it is thought probable thnt
Col. Hugo, who made such nn e?:
1 rollout showing in the race for tho
j governorship, may he selected,.
One of the objects that brought
Senator Hamm to Washington this
week !! his well known dcvnlicn
to the memory of William McKiu
ley. The Mniator is intensely inter
rated in the progress of the William
McKinley Memorial association nnd
believes that the Memorial Arch as
sociation should unite with tho for
mer nnc' the c.imbined efforts of the
two be directed to the erection of a
suitable monument in Canton and,
that, ac .'oinplished, take up the erec
tion of tho memorial arch in the na
lional capital. He considers that
the plans of the Arch association
are upon too largo n scale. Ho has
had soveral e inferences with the
leaders of that association but has
not received much encouragement
on his proposition for an am ilgamu.
tion. Every government employe who
had a vote in New York state, from
the president down to the While
House steward, wont home to vote
and the result, of the elections there
and elsewhere has beon the constant
topic of conversation since. The se
lection of Seth Low to be mayor of
Greater New York is regarded by
Washington republicans not only as
a vote of confidence in the capabil
ity and integrity of the republican
party but as an endorsement of the
policy which has led that paity 10
place in its foremost ranks young
mon of whom the president is the
ideal type, and Seth Low and Gov
Odell scarcely less so.
Mr. Low evidently intends to
model his administration after the
lines laid down by President Roose
velt for before leaving for Great
Harrington, where he went to rest,
immediately after the election, he
said: "I shall make 110 appoint
ments 011 the ground of patronage.
I have made no pledges. I shall
name my nppointees simply on the
ground of fitness for tho position."
Gov. Stone of Pennsylvania, who
came over to see the president im
mediately nf ter the election, says :
"The elections were a complete vin
dication of republican policies. No
body in Pennsylvania takes the
democratic party as a serious propo
sition. The charges of corruption
in state and city government are
untrue. Philadelphia is one of the
best governed cities in tho United
States and everybody knows it."
Washington republicans are in
dignant over the situation in Mary
land and declare it is an example of
the length to which the democrats
will carry things when permitted to
do so. They have the control of
the machine and will probably be
able to control the legislature, Irre
spective of how the people voted,
but there is every reason to believe
that the next lime the people have
an opportunity to express their
wishes at the polls they will do so
in such certain tones that 110 amount
ot corruption will prevent democrat
ic defeat.
Secretary Wilson will nsk congress
for nn appropriation for the depart
ment of Hgriculture for the next fis
cal year ot f :$,C78,5 10, an increase of
practically $1,000,000 over the pre
ceding year. When I asked the
secretary the necessity for so great an
increase he replied: "The mutual
development of the department's
work. For instance, the bureau of
forestry will require $200,10, nearly
double last year's appropriation, for
work which is the natural outgrowth
of that already begun; the new
bureau of soils will require, to
properly continue its work, $173,000,
an increase of $s2,000; the investiga
tions of plant pathology have reached
a point where an extra $5S,00(i will
be needed to carry on that work, in
my judgment there are great possi
bilities for the silk industry in this
country and I have included in my
estimates $10,000 for the purpose of
inaugurating uu investigation and
experiments." When ukcd to
enumerate some of the benefits
which the work of the department
i 1 11 1 1 afforded to fumiers, the secretary
cited, among other things, the intro
duction of the nuvul orange, rust
proof oats, Full wheat and numer
ous plants and grasses; tho salvation
of the California orange industry
from the ravage of the scale liwct
which had threatened its extermina
tion; the introduction of the hlnsto
phaga, an insect which makes possi
ble the growing of the Smyrna ti:;
the general destruction of Insect
pests, which the secretary tx-lieves
results in a saving of many million
dollars annually; the discovery of
remedies for fungous diseases of
vines nnd plants; the eradication of
pleuro-pneumoniu, a disease which
had cost Great Ih itian a loss of over
?llOm),0(M); the inspection of ments
intended for export, which has made
possible nn export trade of many
million dollars in extent; the insHt'
tion of cattle vessels employed In the
export trade, which has resulted In a
decrease of the cost of insurance from
$S.OO to if 1.00 per head, a total sav
ing to exporters of over $2,225,000;
the discovery and distribution of
black-leg vaccine, w hich It is esti
mated has saved the cuttle growers
between $5,000,000 and $0,000,000
per year; the introduction of Smyrna
tobacco in the Connecticut Valley,
which will result in an increased pro
fit to the growers of that section alone
of $500,000 a year; the warnings of
the weather bureau, which have
saved lives, goods In transportation
and growing crops to a value impossi
Dle to estimate; the work of the de
partment statistician in furnishing
honest estimates of the crops; ami
hist, hut not least, the establishment
of the beet sugar industry on an ex
tensive and substantial foundation.
The secretary believes that greater
actual profit accrues to the country
from the monies disbursed by the de
partment of agriculturethan by those
expended by any other department
of the government.
Prot. II. J. Weber of the bureau
of plant industry tells me that he has
developed a variety of cow peas
which, he is convinced, Is proof
against the attacks of the root worm,
so destructive of this crop, particular
ly in the south, lie says that the
root-knot worm works on a variety
of plants including potatoes, tomatoes
and peaches, and many of the peach
growers have been afraid to avail
themselves of the advantages to be
derived from the nitrogen gathering
pea for fear of the introduction of the
rixt-knot worm into the peach trees.
The new variety, which Is a selection
from the Little Iron pea, will afford
no harbor or sustenance to the pest anil
nay therefore, be used in all lojall-
ties without danger. He believes
that this discovery will result In in
calculable benefit to the southern
farmer.
Professor Weber also reports grat
ifying success with his experimental
plots of Egyptian cotton. He is con
ducting experiments in Mississippi,
Florida, Georgia nnd Texas and,
while he is not yet prepared to speak
definitely, he believes that It will he
found practical and possible to grow
crops of from one-half to three-quar
ters of a bale of this cotton per acre
and that a market ranging from six
to ten cents per pound for ordinary
cotton will pay from fifteen to twenty-two
cents for the Egyptian variety.
Mr. Gifl'ord Pinchot, chief of the
bureau of forestry, says that he has
recently received a request for a
working plan for a tract of 1,000,000
acres of long leaf pine land, this tract
comprising about eighty per cent, of
the virgin long-leaf pine forest of
Texas. This is only one of many re
quests made upon the bureau, the
total numlier of which cover an ag
gregate area of over 4,000,000
acres, exclusive of 60,000,000 acres of
government forest reserves in the
care of which the bureau renders
such technical assistance as may be
called for by the secretary of the
interior.
Chief Botanist F, V. Colvllle In a
bulletin called the "Origin and Dis
tribution of the Cocoa Palm," ad
vances the theory that the cocoanut Is
indigenous to this contimentand that
its presence in Ceylon, Philippines,
New Guinea, etc., can only be ac
counted for by the theory that It was
carried to the East from thiscontinent
in prehistoric times. Prof. Colvllle
believes that his investigations are a
strong confirmation of the proposi
tion advanced by anthroologists that
at some prehistoric time there exist
ed communication between North
America and Asia by way of Bering
straits. lineal anthropologists are
much interested in Professor Col
ville's deductions.
Among the visitors at the depart
ment of agriculture tlds week I met
Professor Wm. M. Hays of the Min
nesota exK'riuient station. Profes
sor Hays is here looking after some
j experimental work that he has teen
doing in connection witli the division
of vegetable pathology.

Running Deer With Dogs.
The Philadelphia Press of Mon-
day, Nov. 11, rotates that a trio of
gentlemen from that city, Messrs.
J. E. Kneedler, H. R. Shock, a so
lect oouncilmar, and John R. liar.
rifen, had just returned from a
hunting trip in this county and
brought with them the head nnd
antlers and skin of the largest buck
killed in the wilds of Pennsylvania
in twenty years. The deer when
dressed weighed nearly 250 pounds.
The article relates that a small buck
"rounded up by the dogs" had been
killed and that they "beat the terri
tory for miles around aided by the
guides and their bounds." It wns
nearly night when they "heard the
bay of the dogs ooming towards
them" and soon the deer nppeared.
Kneedler and Harrifen fired several
shots but night coming on they had
to give up tho trail of blood. Early
next morning they "started with
the dogs" and soon found the deer.
Now let the game commission in
vestigate. The Prem certainly can
furnish sufficient evidence to con
vict. If parties from outside can
come into this county and hound
and kill deer and boast of it and the
