Few Great Senators Now.

WASHINGTON, March 15.-The de-
cadence of the Senate is an old theme.
And yet, looking down from the press
gallery into the chamber below, one
cannot avoid the. feeling that it is an
interesting subject. The first effect
is to Shatter the ideals of our youth.
To every American boy the pinnacle
of greatness is a seat in the Senate.
The Senatorial toga is the ermine
which enwraps the crystal ofintelleLt,
genius and eloquence. To be Sen
ator is the acme of juvenile ambition.
One sight at the Senate and the iIlu-
sion of youth dissolyes like the "base-
less fabric of a vision" There is
Plumb, of Kansas, with his narrow,
retreating head, and his Trick, ami
NAL mouth, he is the perfect picture
of noted saloon keeper in st. Louis
famed far and wide for the stentorian
stretch of his voice when he calls out
to his bartender: "Zwel lager" There
is Jonas, of Louisiana, with his dis
tinctive Hebralc profile, who would
naturally pass for a dealer in clothing
on Poydras street, in New Orleans.
There is Joe Brown, Of Georgia, who
sits limp and DOGGY in his seat, with
long gray beard struggling down
his breast, looking for all the world
like an aged billy-gOat summing him.
self on vacant lot. Conger, with
his bullet head, face wrinkled,
pinched and sallow, and a drawn-up
nose, as if he was smelling perfumes
not from Araby the bIest little vest
with coat-tails hugging the floor, with
a laybird walk, and ready to go off
like pop gun whoever pulls the
trigger. HOar, of Massachusetts, with
a face in weak imitation to Horace
Greeley's, with all the baby-like and
benevolent qualities outlined, but
none of the masculine burrows. War
ner Miller. the type of bank cashier,
and Sewell, with the air and voice of
Dublin barrister, dealing in quips
and petty technicalities. Coke, sug-
gestiYe Of the venerable Texas steer.
Henderson, a commonplace Nebraska
lawyer, with weakness for the
flowers of rhetoric. Logan, with a
Cherokee cast of countenance, and a
disregard for grammar that makes
old Murray turn over in his grave
every day in the year.
These are some of the impressions
that occur to those who look down on
the American Senate as it is now.
The days of Clay, Webster and Gal
hOun inevitably recur to the memory
and even the period of Conkling,
Blaine and Ben Hill has become a
classic chapter in legislative history.
To be sure, there are able men i'm the
Senate, but they are like unto the
few grains of wheat in the chaff.
ilOb All uIluueS-
I tionabIy "great man" in that body.
That is to say, man who exhibits
the grandest development of intellect
and eloquence. Out in Missouri they
think Vest is great man. Here he
is merely a bright individual, whose
rhetoric is pleasing, but whose mental
vision cannot soar beyond the region
bounded by the Mississippi on one
side and the Kaw on the other. Sher-
man is probably the greatest man in
the Senate. His bearing in the polit-
ical storms of 40 years have proved
his rugged nature, and the evidence
of his intellectual hardness rests in
the fact that during that period he
has hewn to the line let the chips fall

THE EVILS Of FOREST DEsTRCC
TION.

The following graphic picture of the
irremediable disasters following the
reckless and imprOvident destruction of
woodland, should very fOrcibly impress
itself upon the understanding of all in
telligent persons. The paragraph ia
from Sinclair Teusey's Travels in
Southern Europe
much of France, nearly all of Spain,
and large portions of Italy are entirely
destitute of forests. The tourist can
travel day after day in these countries
without seeing standing timber enough
to make a decent sized barn. The peo-
pie In these sections are bothered to get
the very little fuel they need. depending
upon the trimmings of shade and fruit
trees and vines for what they get; while
the damage done the country by heavy
rains is beyond estimate, especially in
the billy regions, where the rain, fal ing
on the ground, finding no trees with
thor wide spreading roots to check it,,
passage off the surface. rushes with ire
mendous force into the valleys, carrying
all before 1t.
$50 destructive are these TORE nts and
so suddenly do they cosIe down the
river bed, that Ill many places heavy
stone walls are erected to keep the
sweeping floods within bounds. Within
"A few hours after one of these torrents
has swept down Ii valley, the bed of the
river Will be AZ dry as if water had
never wet it. Another evil is the scar
city of small running streams for tue
use Of cattle and for manufacturing
purposes.
The unchecked rain, finding moth
ing in its way. hastily pas 81 from the
surface and gets to the sea; whereas.
If the land was sprinkled with forests,
much of it would be absorbed BY the
ground. and by gradual percolation
find its way to the streams and keep
them alive 10 aid the work of man and
give drink to animals.
IL earnestly implore the owners of
forests in our favored land to be careful
of the trees and waste none We oan
leave our successors no better legacy"
