We can of course tend to the ewatting of both when they get so nu- merous as to be bothersome. but that is not the time when the most effective service can be performed. Keeping down the number of flies and mosquitoes is not as effective as preventing the num- bers from developing. It Is almost & opeless task to think of carrying on & eampaign of extermination through the use of the siapstick. That it all helps Is not 10 be questioned but there is =0 mueh mare satisfactory results to be ob- tained by r means of attack that they ought not to be overlooked. There is need of giving the proper ameunt of atten to the mosquito ureAs wherever they are to be found. It is the breeding places of both' the mos- quifo and the fly that calls for serious attention, and while the draining of marshy la d the elimination of stag- mant pools are important in connection with such work when undertaken on a large scale it is to be realized that there is much that can be done by the indi- viddal It doesn’t have to be a swamp, or a marsh for mosquitoes to breed. They propagate wherever there is stagnant watgr such as is often to be found in barfels or tin cans about premises. The removal of such receptacles means the rediction in the number of mosquitoes. This s all a part of the work that shodld be unlertaken in connection with the Slean up movement. Let the filthy and_unclesn places be climinated and thefe will be mot only more attractive yards and cleaner neighborhoods but there will be a decided decrease in the number of mosquitoes Tiies, both of which muitiply rapidly under such con- ditions and during the warm weather.

There continues be a considerable degree of uncertainty as to what the actipn will be in regard to the bonus proposition for the soldiers that is be- ing Wrged upon congress. All the plans for dealing with it that had been pre- senthd were regarded as inadvisable for different reasons, in addition to the gen- sral bpposition which is raised to the dea. The sales tax, the stock sales tax and_the insurance plan have been put wsidh as failing to be acceptable Eyen before these methods were con- sidered it was admitted that it would be mest, unwise to altemint 1o fssue bonds for the purpose of getting the money that would be required for such a bo- nus. Quite recently Secretary Houston of the treasury department has stated that there ought to be no thought at the prasent time looking foward tr givilg of such a bonus as urged. He seclires that the finances of the coun- try Wre not in proper shape for any such wtep, that the government hasn't enough money to pay its bills by billion: dol- Mrs, that the conditions throug the soufitry are made the worse thereby, at It cannot. help having its effect upon the Maintenance of the high co Ing ®nd that instead of indulging n such snwhrranted spending if any additional laxeh are going to be levied the pro- teeds therefrom should be used for the meetig of the government's obli ever much it might be expec such a declaration has not checked the Mort in behalf of the bonus, and th Srinfing of extra pressure just at this lime because of the political effect it will bavé, Efforts in the lower house of sonffess are now being devoted to tiie fevyflig of a ten per cenl tax on stock Qivifends retroactive to March 15.

Wiy of & reofganization of the army may not be clearly understood in con- greds, But from the action that has been taken it is Quite evident that there is a le differenice of opinion. This is shoWn by the attitude that is taken in regard fo the federalization of the na- lionk] guard. By the action of the sen- fons ted to ate 1 was comsidered advisable that this_step sBold be taken. But the fower Hose was so strongly opposed that it Wwas impossible for the confer- snce committes to redch any agreement in regard théreto, This promises to de- lay the settlement of this important matter for an indefinite period, espec- lafly it it is not disposed of during the mext two wheks.

L As it taking a cue from the refusallot the neovle to buy goeds which téuld be gotten along without the members of the preservers' association have agreed not to purchase any sugar until the present prices are cdt in helf.

RESTS WITH CONVENTION. 1t hds been perfectly evident for a long timie that o candidate is Eoing in- to the republican convention at Chicago next month with ; sufficiently pledged delegates 1o securc the hominatien on the first ballot. In the bulk of the E the delegations will go wnin- structed. There are those who on the first ballot will favor the namas of sofe individual” who because of service o the state it is believed should be made the nominee or is at least deserving of rec- ognition by having his name so present- ed {o the .national convention. Tt can thus be expected that there will be a much scattered vote on the first ballot. That the delegations go uninstructed does not mean that many of the dele- gates have not formed some opinion as to which one of the names kept before the country makes the strongest dppeal to them. The majority, however, is hot Iheta by any hard and fast wstructions from their Comstituents. They have been named under the belief that they can be entrusted to exercise their judg- ment in the choite of & varty nominee, |that they will take into consideration the best interests of the country and the party and tha they will do this very thing. & There are states which havé not as yet chosef thelr delegates but the humber is small and it is not likely that these Will make any great changs in the po- sition of the candidates.

Jéw many of the uninstructed defegales they will receive on the first ballot is problematical but with the large number in the field, and even the vpossibility of a dark horse be- ing selected it is evident that it is not likel§ to be on the first or setond ballot that the cholee Will be made. After the first two, however, indication of the sen- timent ought to be clearer but 1t 18 per- fectly evident that the choice of the nominee will rest with e cénven! and not instructed delegations.
