THE "invisible government:," which for so long has
liijulo democracy a travesty on government, which
has long dominated city, state and national government,
is showing its hand in New York, and the publicity gained
thereby sounds the doom oc the greatest aggregation of
grafters that ever looted a commonwealth Tammany
Hall.
Tho "insidious lobby" investigation, following count
less exposures of Y all street and trust activity, has at
last convinced the most complacent American citizen that
ho must wake up and indulge in a general housekeeping.
Tho reform wave which started in the far west is at last
breaking on New York.
Sulzer has been impeached by Tammany Hall because
he refused to turn the government of tho state over to
Tammany, because lie advocated relorm, neeauso lie
championed direct primaries, initiative and referendum,
because he attacked stock gambling because he would
not turn offices over to organized graft.
Charles R Murphy, leader of Tammany Hall, a man
with no visible mean's of support, having no legitimate
occupation, is the "invisible government" of both New
York City and state. He has grown enormously wealthy,
us his predecessor, Croker, did, from graft. With him
arc allied the "bosses" of both parties, allied for a divis
ion of spoils, with the people as the spoils.
Murphv controls the legislature, and the legislators,
like cattle, are bought, sold and branded to suit the mas
ter s desire. The deadlock between bulzer and Murphy
has resulted in chaos in state a f fail's. The governor has
been deprived of appointive powers. The governor has
through Murphy's orders. Murphy proteges arc kept in
office. The various departments are paralyzed.
Sulzcr faces serious charges, but not half as serious as
can be proven against his accusers. 3To is impeached on
evidence given by brokers who have been put out of bus
iness by legislation advocated by the governor. Part of
the charges he denies, part he explains. Most of the
blame is taken by his wife, who handled Sulzer's finances.
Sulzer has made the fight for reform and for the peo
ple. Therefore he is attacked. Whether guilty of charges
filed or not, he is in this instance fighting the good fight
and should receive the support of people of all parties in
the effort to destroy the invisible government of corrup
tion, graft and loot, that has so long oppressed and dis
lresscd the pcoplo of New York.

(From U. S. Department of Agricul
ture Crop Letter.)
The potato tuber moth is working
such injur' to potato crops, c.cci
nlly in Texas nnd California, that
the bureau of entomology of the U.
S. ilcpnrtmcnt of agriculture has is
sued special instructions to olnto
growers to help them overcome (his
highly injurious pest.
Tho department urges potato
growers to sort the otatocs for
seed two weeks after digging nnd
then to sort them over two weeks
later. It is easy to pick out the in
fested tubers because of the excre
ment of the moth, which adheres by
means of a web to the outside of
tho potatoes nnd enn be rendilv de
tected. The tubers unaffected by
tho tuber moth should then he placed
in n molh-proof bin.
Tho tubers placed in tlio moth
proof bin. after finnl sorting, should
then bo fumigated bv menus of enr
bon bisulphid (or biMilphid of car
bon as it is nNo known), in order
to kill any mollis which might linvc
bred out or have slipped in through
crevices, or when the bin was open
ed. Carbon bisulphid is applied by
pouring small quantities into ilnt
vessels such ns milk pans or pio
tins. An nvcrnge of three pounds
should bo use dill 1000 cubic feet of
space. It is more effective nt hHi
temperatures, SO to 00 degrees Fnhr.
high being be.-t. About n pint is pour
ed into each rcccptnelo nnd the pans
nro placed in the bins at the top.
The gns being heavier than nir nat
urally penetrates the mnss of potn
tocs, reaching those nt tlio bottom.
Tho bin should bo tightly closed for
from twenty-four to thirty-six hours
with good nssuranco that the germ
inating power of tho seed is not de
stroyed. Tho utmost enre should be
tnken that no fire, such ns that from
n cicnr, electric fan, stovo or even
n gns light or lamp should be brought
into the icinity. Otherwise, ns the
gas is very inflammable n fire may
result or n serious explosion mny
follow.
All potato growers should keep n
careful "lookout" before nnd after
fumigntion. At firt the fumigated
seed potatoes nnd those in tho field
should be inspected daily to detect
any growth of the insect; later, ob
servation every other day nnd fin
ally once n week should bo sufficient.
If there is nuy indication Hint the
tuber rnolh is propagating, n second
fumigation with carbon bisulphid
should bo given.
This method of saving seed pota
toes is so simple, although very ef
fective, thnt the specinlists fenr I tint
many potato growers will disregard
it.
