It is reported in Washington that the Connecticut delegation in the house is receiving letters and telegrams rel- atlve to their votes on the free tolls provision. Some of their correspond- ents congratulate them and others ask for their reasons for voting as they did. There has been no question in Wash- ington as to how some of the members would vote. Representative Mahan stated his position immediately on the delivery of the president’'s message on the subject March 5. Up to a few days ago it was supposed that Mr. Kennedy would vote against repeal and that Mr, Lonergan would vote with the president, but when the roil was called the position was reversed. In a statement given out soon after Tonergan he savs: “After careful study and close attention to the debates, T do not believe that the United States has violated any treaty agreement is the vital question involved. ‘With this settled in my mind, 1 think the action of the sixty-second con- gress in providing for free tolls for American coastwise vessels using the Panama canal, and the democratic platform endorsement thereof, ought to_be upheld.” Mr. Mahan said that he had listened attentively to all the debate and had been unable to find a reason to change his mind. He was, he said. a member of the committee on resolutions of the Baltimore convention and had voted for the free tolls, plank in the plat- PREDICTS MORE PROHIBITION. Rev. E. 8. Worcester in Shop Talk at Hopkins & Alien’s. Rev. Edward S. Worcester cenducted the Y, M. C. A. shop meeting held at Hopkins & Allen’s Thursday noon. He spoke on the Abuse of Liberty and in part said: After referring to the of a prohibition amendment gress and some noteworthy signs of the times in other countries, as G many and Austria, the speaker con- tinued in part as follows: The discussion of this matter from any angle rarely grows at all warm that some one does not raise the cry that the “grand American principle of personal liberty” is in danger. Now if anybody thinks that liberty to do any- thing and everything one pleases re- gardless of consequences is an Amer- jcan principle, or a grand principle, he is vastly mistaken. I am not at lib- erty to empty my ash can on your front steps or to shoot holes in your bedroom windows. Why should I be at liberty to do still more annoying and dangerous things? If you and 1 enjoy an unsafe freedom in the use of intoxicants now It is not a matter of right but a public concession which the public may withdraw when it is so disposed. introduction in con- The time is coming when no man wiill be granted liberty to make a public menace of himself, to make paupers and defectives of his children or to provide others systematicaliy with the means of so doing.

He believed it was right then, and he believed it was right now, and there was nothing for him to do but vote his honest opinfon. He said that he was of the opinion that the repeal of the free tolls clause would benefit the transcontinental railroads, both in | this country and Canada. Mr, Kennedy in a statement given out just prior to the vote said that he had become convinced that the free toll ciause of the Panama canal act was a clear violation of the trade agreements enfered into with England, which the United States was in henor {bound to keep. He is also of the opinion that the free toll provision | would only benefit the great shipping monopoly, that the people of this country would not be benefited in the | least. Mr. Donovan would not discuss his position on the question. He antici- pated his action on the tolls question in a short speech delivered on the iver and harbor bill last week. He | foreign_poliey. Mr, Reilly ,it is understood, would | have voted against the repeal had he been able to have attended the ses- sions of the house.

Representatives Lonergan and Ken- nedy have received leave to print and will within a few days print their views on the tolls question in the Con- gressional Record. AFTER THE MOTHS. Now is the Time to Cut Down the Gypsy and Browntails. Everybody in New England probably knows something about gypsy and the browntail moths, and the depredations of these pests on the fruit and shaJdé spring is the time when much effective work can be done toward exterminat- ing these dangerous pests. If the peo- ple of New England were to turn out now and attack the egg clusters ot these insects in those districts where they are still found, many valuable | trees might be saved, and their com=- piete extermination brought apprecia- bly nearer. Apple trees, oak trees and pine trees are the trees which suffer most from the ravages of these pests, These irees abound in New England. They repre- sent a great dea! of value and their preservation means a saving of a great deal of money. And all this can be done, say the experts of the depart- ment of agriculture and others, by prompt and energetic measures taken at this time of year. For some years now in New England and New York state more or less active campaigns have been waged against these costly pests, wit hthe result thuat last year their depredations were less than in previous vears. However, they are stili much in evidence and some new territory has been found infested with them. These pests spread so rapidly that it is of the greatest im- portance to attack the egg clusters now. According to the department of ag- riculture, one of the best methods for destroying the gypsy moth is to treat the egg clusters with creosote. But this should be done before April 1. Creosote can be obtained from nearly all hardware or seen stores for about 35 cents a gallon. To it is added a small amount of lampblack to discolor the treated eggs. It is applied with a brush. To get at the browntail moths the experts advise at this time of year that their winter web shoul dbe burned. By burning them now the caterpillars are destroyed before they emerge in April. It is a very simple matter to burn these webs when found on trees. By such action you may be saving not one but hundreds of trees. To cut them from the trees simply means that the caterpillars will come out on the ground, and cutting sometimes harms the tree as well. Spraying at this time of year is net considered very effeci- ive. It is best to spray in August, using from six to ten pounds of arse- pate of lead to 100 gallons of water. Weill known methods of applying mended by xperts, only by applying them too eariy they help rather than hinder the propagation of these pests. The caterpiliars select them as a piace that the sticky material can be spread evenly. ¥Even after the egg clusters have been atiacked with creosote it i well, according to the department of summer comes along. It does not mean a great deal of ex pense or extra work to protect from these desuructive pests. In the jcase of orchards it is necessary that | ture should be followed to protect trees from other insects and injurious dis- eases. It has often been the experience in { New England that the gypsy moth will attack a town, a city or a park, much damage has resuited before any effective method of handling the situa- day many experts with long experience in this battle with the gypsy moth. A town can save a great deal of expense |if before beginning its campaign secures the advice of one of these ex- perts. This whole work is thoroughly organized now in the New England states and anybody wishing to wage war intelligently can get advice con- cerning proper treatment and local conditions for the asking.
