Often In the past we have admired your unselfish advocacy of the cause of liberty and the 15,000 Irish Americans at the ceremony of unveiling of the John F. Finerty monument were thrilled by your meeaage in fa vor of home rule for Ireland. This monument la symbolic of the revitalized Irish nation that has been the Inspiration of Parnell, Redmond and other patriots, and we believe It would strengthen the home rule cause Immeasurably If you would publlah In your Sunday papers, In the near future, a comprehensive account of our recent demonstration here, and emphasize Its significance to Irish liberty. JAS. T. CLARK, President. United Irish Societies. Mr. Hearst’s Home Rule Message San Francisco, Aug. 15. As an American believing ardently in liberty and oppor tunity in equal rights and equal justice, I believe sincerely in home rule for Ireland. If I were an Englishman I would believe with even great er earnestness in home rule not only for Ireland, but for every individual integral part of the British Empire. I would believe in genuine home rule and in general home rule. I would believe in home rule which would insure com plete independence in local government for every Btate and in a general government which would afford every state equal rights, equal liberties and proportionate representation. Such just and genuine home rule is the best and perhaps the only remedy for the threatened decadence and possible dissolution of the British Empire. The preservation and per petuation of the British Empire in its full prestige and power are only to be found in a voluntary federation of independent states, not held together loosely by compulsion but molded into an imperial entity by the natural and nationalising forces of mutual confidence, mutual affection and mutual interest. If I were an Irishman I would take pride in this fight for home rule, first because of the benefit I was helping to confer upon my country and my own countrymen, and, secondly, because of the benefit which will inevitably ensue to all other sections of the British Empire and to other nations through out the world.

Continued from Page 1. an isolated apot in Texas until it has now reached the Rtate of Alabama, end 1 have been appalled by the dam- fign wrought by Its ravage*. During all thepe year* 1 have been hoping for the discovery by which the pest could be exterminated, or even check ed, but In both I have been disap pointed Likes Zone Remedy Plan. Home time ago the suggestion was made to establish across the entire cotton belt, east of the area* infested by the weevil a Bone of 100 miles, in which no cotton should be planted. It Wfl* argued that this would check Ihe eastward ndvanc® of the weevil, as It subsists only on »be cotton plant, and it was also argued by entomolo gist* and other experts on plant and Insect life that rny moving this zone westward from year to year all the weevil* in thp t'otton States would he starved out and entirely exterminated until the Mexican border was reached. The Idea appealed to me very strongly, and I have given the sub ject a great deal of study ever since. I believe this plan 1* entirely feasi ble, and while at first thoUK t the cost may seem prohibitive, yet when the estimated cost is compared with the estimated saving *he zone plan must he looked upon as a very sound business proposition. The Government entomologists, farm demonstration agent* and others admit that If this zone plan is put Into operation it will undoubtedly check and Anally exterminate the boll weevdl. as It wlli have nothing to feed upon, and they admit at the same time that no other plan that ha* been tried so far has been at all effective 1 hava had an estimate made of the coat of the proposed zone and I think it Is a very liberal one. It follows: "The cessation of cotton growing over an area of 40.245 square miles, in which the crop Is valued at $9S.990,047 p«*r annum, is at first glance such an appalling suggestion that few have even thought to look deeper. Se«s Need of Substitute. "We must ndd alro to this the loss In glnn'.ng business, which is com puted at $2,915.51k er annum and the loss In *oed products totaling $.>.633,- 562.' This means that there must be compensation for a loss in earning value of $107,539,127 per annum. "In the Hrst place, any scheme which would call for the cessation of colton growing must provide th*» means and knowledge for growing something else In the place of cotton. "A large crop of trained agricul turist* Instructing In the cultivation of new and profitable crops and in the principles of rotation, maintenance of soli fertility, etc., would help the people to double and treble the output of their land within very few years. It would also be necessnry to supply seed for planting the 2.573,072 acres of cotton land In other cropn. Thus the greater part of the prospective logs *un he in >i at a reasonable expense. ••The loss of*the ginner* and part of the loss of the oil men w ill have to he assumed by the Government. Phis loss would not exceed $9,000,000. "It would be necessary for the west ern portion of the quarantine area to remain out Of cotton for possibly three years. "East of the .proposed quarantine line there lies »»n area of 1E?.027 square miles of territory in which cotton can tie produced The average yield per acre (1908-1811) for this territory lias been 3.051,103 bales (ooO pounds), of which 32.892 bales (500 pounds was s*ea Island cotton. The value of the latter was $4,224,235. Places Faith in Expert. "The value of the remaining or up land cotton, valued at 11.9 cents per pound, was $174,345,554. The value of the equivalent amount of seed pro duced would be $33,943,532. Thu* the annual value of the producers of the crop to be protected is $217,514,211. "History of the boll weevil has shown that if this area is not pro tected its production will be lowered vear bv vear until poseibly 50 per cent of the crop is taken, and sometime.* as hleb as 76 per cent." The stone plan is the only sugges tion that has vet been offered that holds out any promise of relief. The cost of the stone plan is undoubtedly great, but when the estimated cost is compared with the estimated sav ing. the protection of sections not yet reached and the ultimate eradica tion of the boll weevil ♦throughout the entire cotton belt, the cost does not seem to be prohibitive. In fact, the cost of the zone system will be mild compared with the loss that will l»e entailed If the boll weevil is not exterminated. Sea Island Crop Imperiled. It Is practically certain that if the boll weevil spreads to the South At lantic States the sea Island cotton in dustry will be wiped out entirely. This is by reason of the semi-tropical nature of the islands, the luxuriant foliage which affords a safe harbor and breeding ground for the Insects dur ing winter and summer, and the fact that there is neither extreme hieat nor extreme cold, both of which are destructive to inaect life. It is my deliberate judgment that if the boll weevil reaches the sea islands, there will be no more sea Island cotton. I have spoken of the aggregate loss to the country, but the feature that appeals to nie most strongly is the loss to the individual. The coun try may eventually recover from the damage done to the cotton crop, but the individual cotton farmer whose income is cut in half or destroyed, and whose property is made to de preciate in value, may never recover. The loss tq him will be irreparable. My object In writing this Is in order that the people may know just how seriously the cotton crop Is be ing menaced, and that they may dis cuss and understand the only plan that has been offered, which promises to accomplish the result needed If any other plan is suggested that promises to accomplish the result at New York Governor's Foes Call Wife's Illness a Sham and Confession a Ruse.

CHICAGO, Aug. 23.—Alleging that his wife was madly Infatuated with a man of strange, weird, magnetic powers and that they conspired to incapacitate him by administering mysterious potions, Theodore Speab- er. a former undertaker of Chicago, tivr and Lieutenant Governor Martin Glynn are busy, the one strengthening hi* defense, the other preparing to in vigorate his attack. In the meantime, the official business of the Empire State is at a standstill. The government of New York pre sents a paradox unique to republican government. The State has two Gov ernors, and It Iihr none. Two men maintain they have the right to trans act the Stflte'a business No business is being transacted. And in this struggle for power, the battle seemingly centers about a woman, a Woman who has no voice In the government, who is not even al lowed to vote under the statutes of the State. Wife’s Illness Questioned. In addition to the law point raised by the defenders of Sulzer that he can not be Impeached or tried for things he did before he took the oath of office, the defense lays greatest stock on the declaration by Sulzer’* wife that she. not the Governor, used checks he had received as campaign contributions to speculate on the stock mn rket. on the other hand, It Ik learned that the Fiawley Committee, which brought to light the charges on which the Governor was impeached, will make her confession the subject of a rigid examination to shatter, if pos sible. the defense, which will be based largely on her statement. In the meantime, Mrs. Sulzer. It is reported. Is dangerously ill, her nerve* broken. It is said, under the strain which she has experienced since the charges were brought against her husband. Bulzer’s enemies even question this Illness. They question It so seriously that it, too, Is to be investigated. The first step In this Investigation, Both Accused of ‘‘Shamming," The committee believe* that "talk ing too much" consisted of telling sto ries of Mrs. Sulzer's true condition which were not to the liking of the Governor. An Inkling of this purpose was contained in an interview with Assembly Majority Leader Aaron J. Levy, who declared: "Not Only is Mrs. Sulzer's confes sion a sham, but the pretended illness of Mrs. Sulzer Is a sham, of which William Sulzer Is the chief perpe trator." However, should Bulzer he re moved from office by Tammany votes, with all the judges of the Court of Appeals voting in his favor, he woul 1 count it a vindicaton and proof of his assertion that he is being persecute* because he would not turn over the State to Tammany Hall. ‘Wild Man's' Haircut Fills Bushel Basket Tramp That Frightened Woman and Children Gets Cleaning When Arrested.
