CONCERNING the rumors that the
authorities at Washington will seek
to break down reciprocity the New
York Tribune remarks that instead
of seeking TO break down the reciproc-
lty policy the administration will
show good sense if it develops it by
negotiating new treaties. The Presi-
dent, it he be capable of taking ad-
vice from the shrewdest leaders of his
party, can submit to Congress next
December a number of conventions by
which cOmpensating advantages for
the American export trade will be OBJ
tanned for such reduction in the tar
III as he advocates. The Tribune does
not favor free wool: but if a Demo-
cratic majority DEGREES 1T, we would
consider it wiser to negotiate treaties
with Australia and the Platte country
than to give away the American mar
ket outright;

THE LESSON OF ARBOR DAY.

While the soil is in good condition
so far as moisture is concerned, for
the planting of treesf the atmosphere
has not been such today to arouse en-
thuSiasm in the observance of ArbOr
Day. 1t is probable that Arbor Day
does little more than invite desire
for the OrnamentatiOn OF residence
and public grounds, and that through
it but little is accomplished in di-
rect manner in the preservation of
our forests Still attention has been
called to the fact that if one tree
were planted each year for each in
habitant of the state of Minnesota
and reasonably cared for, SO that the
usual percentage would live, the drain
upon our forests would be counter
acted. Though Arbor Day in itself,
so far as the planting of trees is con-
cerned, will doubtless aid but little
in forest preservation, yet it is prob
able that through it will be brought
more forcibly to the people the neces-
Sity of doing something toward max
ing good the vast area of country that
is annually denuded of it's forest
growth, aud cause something to be
done to provide for the future. There
are everywhere tracts of land of great
er or less size which are comparative
ly worthless for any purpose except
that of growing trees. 1t is hardly
probable that private capital will be
turned to forest cultivation upon
these tracts. Therefore if anything
is done in this direction it must be
done by state or national authority.
A commencement in this line has al
ready been made by the setting aside
Of large areas of the public domain,
covered with forests. for national
parks, and this work is still going on
under the guidance of the interior de-
partment. The state of New York
has also made a beginning in the work
by creating state part IN the forests
of the Adirondack mountains.
In some of the countries of the old
world considerable attention is being
paid to forest culture, it being con
Quoted under the supervision of gov
eminent authority. This is the only
practical way in which it can be car
ried on, and is undoubtedly the man
ner in which it will eventually be con-
Quoted in this country.
In the meantime ArbOr Day is do
ing great work aside from awaken
ing the people to the Importance of
forest culture, by teaching the young
to change the bare surroundings of
the school houses and their homes to
a beautiful landscape and so turning
their attention to, and impresSing
upon their minds, the full value Of
the forestry question.

COMPARING the naval fleet which
was re viewed in New York last week,
with the naval vessels Of the period
of Columbus, and the immediate
years which followed, the Minneapolis
Tribune says: with every port hole
closed, the modern steel-clad cruiser
could run down the entire Spanish
Armada of 1888, without danger from
either the smOOth-bOre three and six
Founders or from boarding. The ma
val architecture which produced the
Columbian armada which promenad-
ed Hampton Roads and New York
harbor this week has arisen during
the past 30 years of peace, since the
fight between the Monitor and Merri-
mac. The Pinch steel sides, the 10
to 15-inch calibre steel rifles, the tri-
pie and Quadruple expansion engines,
the 20 to 25-knot metal cruisers, the
rapid firing magazine rifles, the dyna-
mite gun and the 135-knot Krupp gun,
the steel ram and torpedo vessel, are
all the products of period which has
had no use for such engines of de-
struction."

THE fact that number rof citizens
of South Corolina have joined In a
protest against lynching in that
state, is one of the CLEANS of hope
which occasionally break through the
clouds of the southern problem.
Lynching after lynching have taken
place, and barbarities have been COM
mitted which place the participators
on a level with the prosecutors Fof the
middle ages, but there has hardly
protest escaped from the lips of the
people. South Carolina has always
been supposed to have the least re-
gard for the agency of the law, in the
punishment of crime, andsthat this
protest should come from some of the
citizens of that state is all the more
notable That it will of itself cause
revulsion of public opinion there, is
not to be expected, but it may be
the sprouted seed that will grow and
spread, developing into a sentiment
which will ultimately cause change
in the conduct of public affairs
thro lghout the south. 1t is in the
recurring frequency of such protests
that hope lies. If the course mapped
out by the protest from South Caro-
lima is persued to the end, it will mean
the restoration of the south to the
domain of law and order; it will mean
that capital will flow there to devel-
Oh it's great resources, as freely as it
flowed into the northwest; and that
immigration will no longer hesitate

life and property have for years been
held

THE GREAT EXPOSITION.

IOQdy Une FORMAL opening or the
great Columbian Exposition took
place and the greatest undertaking CT
the kind of modern times is now open
to the public. AS Chicago looks back
at what has been accomplished dur
ing the past three years, it can we'll
be satisfied with the result. 1t is
doubtful if there is another city in
the world that could have taken such
burden upon it's shoulders, and han
died it as easily and aswell. Not only
has the city put into this institution
sum as large as che cost of any pre-
viOus exposition, but it has aroused
the enthusiasm Of the entire world
and hardly nation of South Amer
lea or of Europe, or even the more ro-
mote parts of the world, but what is
represented to a greater or less de-
gree. Great as was the Paris expOsi-
tion, the gathering at Chicago far
surpasses it. 1t is claimed by those
in a position to judge, that the exhib-
it's Of Europe at Chicago far surpass
anything they had at Paris. The eX-
hibitS of fine arts which have come
from Italy, and from the great cities
of the continent are the equal of any
of the exhibits seen at Paris, and
many experts assert that they are
superior. 1t is surprising the interest
which has been taken throughout the
world in the Exposition, and yet when
one comes to study the matter closely
It is not so very strange after all. The
United States is one of the most pros
porous nations on the globe. Its peO-
pie as a whole are the most intelli
gent, they have earned good wages
and are good buyers, therefore the
nations Of the old world, especially,
are DESTROYS of displaying their goods
and wares before US that they may
thereby enlarge their trade.
The Exposition at jackson Park is
essentially monument of peace.
While the trappings of war, both an
Gent and modern, will be prominent
ly displayed, they will drop into Sec
ondary position, beside. the arts Of
peace which are there in full. The
nations of the world which will con-
gregate in Chicago during the next
six months cannot help but be i'm
pressed with the lessons of peace
which will there be presented, and
the influences which 60 out there
from will likely have beneficial eff
feet in favor of universal peace.
The exhibit which the Americas
will present cannot fail in being of
great interest to old world visitors,
for those exhibits will mark the pro-
gress which has been make In 400
years-the conversion of vast con-
tinental wilderness to one of the prin-
cipal factors in the worlds civIliZa-
tiOn.
The Exposition will stand as the
greatest monument that could have
been prepared to the memory of Col
umbus and the great work he achiev-
ed. and will be more lasting in its
character, and far reaching Ia Its
results than any pile of granite that
could be erected.

THE NAVAL REVIEW AND ITS
LESSONS.

Speaking of the naval review at
New York, and the contrast between
the great naval ships there displayed
and the three caravals of Columbus,
the Chicago Inter Ocean of yesterday
draws therefrOm a lesson which can
not help but be apparent to all.
This naval progress, it says, is one,
and perhaps the least, of the results
that followed the daring progress of
the great Genoese. For, notwithstand-
ing the Drilliancy eclat of the great
naval review participated in by rep
resentatives of the worlds great war
ships, the three caravels of Columbus
stand for grander and higher things
than those warships represent. What
the caravels of Columbus do stand for
will be much better shown in the
great exposition which will open it's
gates TO the world next Monday morn
ing than in the great naval review to-
day, brilliant and impressing as it
will be.
And this reflection will also enable
the patriotic American who views the
parade in New York harbor today,
either in person or through the eyes
of the press, to look with pride upon
the fact that among the great navies
of the world that the United States
holds only the seventh in rank, and
even reconcile him to the historical
fact that, as Lieutentant Wadhams
said at the Union League Club Tues
day night, only few years ago we
were only the nineteenth power in
naval rank among the nations Of the
globe. The glory of the United
States, like that of Columbus, does
not lie in her naval or military
achievements, glorious and honorable
as they have been Peace hath it's
glOries no less renowned and farther
reaching even than those Of war and
the nation of all others with which
even the greatest European power
would least care to grapple in conflict
whether upon sea or upon land, may
we'll be content with the strong
and enduring basis of greatness upon
which its prestige rests, even though
other nations in mere number and
strength of naval equipment may out
rank her,
1t IS the enormous aud incalculable
reserve force Of great, strong, pros
porous nation that is always taken in
to consideration when weighing the
chances of war, and while we are dis
tinctly in favor of building up navy
that of itself will hold a rank COM
mensurate to the United States
among the nations of the world, we
do not share the nervousness of those
who look upon such navy as indis-
penslble TO our national safety and
honor as regards European powers.
The anniversary Of the great COM
mander of the Union armies, that
also falls upon today, teaches lesson
as to the capabilities of the republic
that is more impressive than any
navy, however formidable, the United
States may yet equip. This lesson is
REINFORCED by the dedication of the
Erickson monument al the Battery
in New York Wednesday, and will be
still further illustrated ia the great
exposition SO soon to open its doors OF
peace and point TO still greater
achievements in the future of all ma
tiOnS.
