Closing Work Of the Forestry Congress.
Washington, May s.-The American
forestry congress concluded it's annual
session to-day. The general discussion
showed that the prevailing sentiment
towards the preservation of timber lands
was matter Of national importance,
and that such government lauds should
be Withdrawn from settlement or public
disposal. A paper by John s Hicks,
Of New York, entitled "Pianting trees
by railroad companies" showed that it
required nearly half mile of growing
timber along side of each mile Of rail-
way, to produce sufficient number of
rles for Its nse. exclusive Of the timber
used III bridging aud fencing. The con-
ventlon adopted q report earnestly
lndorsing the bill now pending III con-
gress to establish national experiment
stations in connection with agricultural
colleges of the various states, aud q
resolution calling upon industrial
schools to begin at once the work Of
forestry education in their institutions
President Loring delivered the closing
addi ss. He explained that he had
called the meeting at Washington,
because he believed the time for mere
talk had passed and the time for action
tad come. He believed that i, the for.
estry congress were held in Washington
II would be more complete recognition
OF congress, aud without such recog
nltiou little could be done. The mex,
session will be held at Saratoga, pro
bably in September.

ing the present session Of congress- it was
more than possible to have accomplished
division, by united effort. The south
was on the ground, solidly in favor Of it.
The north was also there solidly srrayed
against it. A result, the golden op.
portunity went by and Dakots is left
with an increased burden Of sectional
differences, into which is instllled all the
bitterness Of the defeat of laudable OBJ
ject.
A day or two before the introduction
of what ls known as the capital commits

viously been warm advocate Of the
proposition to divide, telegraphed the
Press and DAkotsian from Washington
that division was dead and that Dakota's
best course was to put forth its strongest
efforts in favor of admission as o whole.
There was no reason at that time for fol-
lowing the advice contained within the
telegram and it was laid aside
with snspicion that it was
the outcome of scheme which
had crystalized under the mapipulations
of the combination which arranged tue
capital deal. Subsequent events have
proved that this suspicion was not i'll

Mr.. Potter's plea to the north is q

doubtless tended to aggravate this
