LEGISLATIVE ECHOS. | animal As Condensed From The Wilmington Messenger. : The genrral public is keeping an eye on the populist boiters, to see how many federal offices they get. They have secured, with a few exception, all the state offices they will get. Pritchard will now have ta look out for them. The Winston Republican, the organ of the piedmont republisans, calls Gov— ernor Russell “the worst hated of the republican leaders.” Under the new act, regarding the Western criminal circuit court. the gov- ernor can order the judge (Ewart) any where in the state to hold a speciay court for criminal cases, and an ex— change of courts with the judge of the Eastera criminal circuit (Sutton)is also permitted. The legislature has passed what is known as the Georgia law agains! ‘eyerhead” insurance—forbidding the agents of regular licensed companies from writing risks in fire insu’ance companies which have no agents in this state and which pay no license.

Since the publication of the letter from Dr. Battle in reference to the use of Paris Green on tobacco to- destroy the horm worm, bud worm ana flea beatle there have been many inquiries concerning it. J have been asked many times what I thought about it and if I advocate] the use of it. As a matter of caution I shall not advise anyone to us® it, but will srmply say here most em- phatically I expect to use it, myself just as soon as I have occasion toand while North Carolinain Kentucky and nearly all the northern states the practice has been in use for many years. In speak- ling of this a few days ago in the pres- ence’Mr. W. B. Leonard, of Big Flats, N. Y., where they grow quantities of cigar tobacco, why, said he, don’t you people use Paris Green on tobacco.

Such is the intormation I have in and while I have never secn it tried on our tobacco yet I am not inclined to believe our tobacco regard tO its use, different from that of other states and shall not be a duubting Thomas at all when the worms and the despised flea | beatle begin to come. A few days ago I was talking with a | gentleman on this subject and he said | there was one thing certain, he would | not use tobacco that had Paris Green I asked him the kind ¢f tobacco he used and when he tola me I showed him that the filler on itif he knew it. it is an experiment with us here in. told him it was an experiment here and | | was made of burley which grew inKen- tucky and evidently had Paris Green Well lie said he did not know This represents one side while on on it: it, the other I had a tobacco farmer to say to me afew days ago, that Ihad dene the tobacco growers an injustice by said lf will make tobacco culture tco easy ard there will be too much ofit planted He said he had used it and found ita he, This matter 1s of too much impor- tance to every tobacco farmer to be treated Hlgtitly.and my object is to give the tobacco «:owers the benefit of all the information I have and then let them do their own thinking and acting Prelimmary Triai.
