IT is interesting to note the statement of the Springfield Republicans Wash ington correspondent that Postmaster General Wanamaker, while willing to fill all the places with republicans, is so much of stickler for efficiency that he may not suit and may ultimately have to go It is such statements as these that fill the average republican heart with a wild, tumultuous joy.

THE New York World dubs the Hart ford Post 'that poor excuse for news paper" It is probable, however, that the Post will not suspend publication right away. The Post may be a ''poo1 excuse for a newspaper" but it's large business proves that it is good enough for the community where it circulates. Not so much can be said of the World.

he Suffrage Amendment.

q The vote upon the suffrage amend
lent was very remarkable one. In
Philadelphia the majority for II is about
- great az that against the prohibition
amendment, and It is clear that there
lhe workers punched the two tickets
seugether making a common cause OF
both, and that the independent voter
was altogether absent. II is astonish-
ing that even under this happy accom-
mediation Of the party leaders in the
amendment issue there was not more
independent voting done but IL seems
sslear that the prohibition voter took
down the suffrage amendment about as
Nfteh rs il was offered him.
In the country far more independent
thinking seems to have been done on
this amendment and the consequence is
that II has been defeated In many coun-
.tiee along with the Prohibition amend
ment. This is quite unexpected, ms an
Suppression has been that the suffrage
amendment would go through by de
fault everywhere as it did in Philadel-
phia and that 1t was hopeless TO contend
.against the general desire Of the party
managers to be rid of the cost of tax re-
.ccipts at hot election times.
The amendment has probably carried,
but the strong vote against IL is crafty
ing as showing the independent think
Ing of the voter and the strong senti-
ment In favor of refusing the ballot to
the man who does not value il sufficiently
to pay his small tax TO enjoy Il.

In u government report on the forest
conditions of the Rockey mountains, Pro-
fessor T.. J. James, Of the University of
Pennsylvania, has an essay on the govern
ment in its relation to the forests. Accord
ing to the last census the value Of the
forest crop for 1890 exceeded seven
hundred millions of dollars. The value OF
the forest products was equal TO onc-thrd
of that of all farm products sold, consumed
or on hand in the year 1879, and IL exceeded
by more than hundred millions the as
sesscd value Of all the farms i'm New
England. The sum named exceeds the
gross income of all the railroad and
transportation companies in the country,
aud would pay the debts Of all the states in
the union excepting New York and Penn
sylvania, but including all the debts of
counties, cities, townships and schools in
all the other states. ." We have 10 do here
with an interest ranking third in impor-
tance, even from the mere view of dollars
and cents, counting manufactures of all
kinds first and agriculture second" The
general government has given a great deal
of attention and money To the consideration
of agriculture and manufactures and has
gone on down the scale fostering
and protecting various interests that
its sheltering arms reach over to the
seals of Behring sea and the oysters of the
Chesapeake, but our disappearing forest
wealth has until very recently received no
attention whatever. The value of forests
is not thing To he measured only by dol
lars and cents and their effect upon climate,
though by no means surely understood, is
evidently of sufficient importance To make
their destruction matter of grave public
concern. We do not need a professor TO
tell MS that in trcclcss districts the rain
glides oil without soaking into the ground,
II swells the rivers 10 destructive height
and rushes TO tho sea. Where there are
forests great deal of moisture is held by
the foliage and slowly penetrates 10 great
depth, while the roots play their part in
leading moisture through the soil, and also
in preventing rushing waters from wash
ing II away. drought and disastrous
flood can not always he traced 10 the
removal of forests, but their agra
walton and frequency has been shown
TO be duo Ia such removal. Z"
The injury may be far away from the
cause. Louisiana levees may be broken
by floods starting n thousand miles away,
OF soil carried down as far may block the
| navigation of narrow passes. Forests also
effect health by their effect upon tcmpera-
ture moisture and tho purity of the air.
No doubt they have broken and dispelled
doubt about il, we must encourage the
growth Of forests aud there are great tracts
| of land good for little else.
