A MISTAKEN POLICY.

The Government of the United States
thinks it is doing a very smart thing in
driving the sheep out of the forested res
ervation around Yosemite Valley. There
is no better way of preserving q forest
from fire than by pasturing the forested
land with sheep. When sheep men first
invade forest. they sometimes burn off
the underbrush for the purpose of bring
ing on the grass next year; but this is not
necessary after forests have been pas
tured for a short time with bands of
sheep. The sheep keep down the under
brush, and very soon clear the forest by
browsing on the bushes that grow among
the trees. They also tramp into the lust
everything that would carry the fire
through the forest. Forests should be
burned over at short intervals; then there
would not lie fagots enough to burn the
trees.
" hen the State OF California acquired
by cession in trust the Mariposa Grove of
Big Trees, the Commissioners immedi-
ately set about to prevent forest fires. In
q very short time, the cones. shatterings
and bark of trees had fallen to such an
extent that a fire starting in the forest
would have burned every tree. 1t is the
ground fagots that are q menace to the
trees Of the forest. If the Mariposa
Grove of Big Trees had been carefully
burned every year, no harm would have
come to the trees themselves. When
Yosemite Valley was first discovered, it
was an open glade. The preservation
policy very soon destroyed the meadow,
since underground appears wherever
there is sufficient moisture to grow
tree. The cones deposited on the ground
become d.,r, and unless the Commission
ers absolutely clean up the ground on
about 50, ,o00 acres. the underground itself
IS menace TO the ultimate preservation
OF the valley.
II the United States wants the forest
within the reservation recently made in
the Yosemite region preserved. the best
way 10 DO it would be to pasture the
whole country with sheep. This would
keep down the underground, tramp the
furze and ferns and other brush into the
ground, and thus make it impossible for
forest fires to spread. Since the policy
OF pasturing the iorested region on the
slope OF the Sierra Nevada Mountains
has been adopted, there have been no
doubt about this, an inspection by com
peteut ioresters OF the condition of
forest in the fall attor it has been pastured
by sheep viii convince any one that the
policy minimizes the danger from fire.

NOTE AND COMMENT.

The Plumas National Bulletin has entered
upon its thirtieth year, and is a better paper
to-day tnan ever before in its history, 1t has
lived To see great changes in Plumas County
and has been one of the leading factors IN the
development OF that section of the State. It's
advertising columns indicate that it is now
receiving generous support, and it deserves it.
Such papers do much more for a community
than a community does for them.

The Marysyille 4pDeni says:

The movement to prevent the use of the
American dag for advertisements should be
successful. IL is only those who are un-
American that desire to profit by using it as
an advertising sign. The stars and stripes
should be held sacred and We hope the ag1ta-
tion will result in II becoming law.
Old Glory should be preserved from
any cheapening customs. 1t is absolute
PROCLAMATION of the national emblem to
prostitute it to advertising purposes, and
such uses should therefore be prohibited
under severe penalties.

THE ONLY CONCLUSION.
IRakersheld Calilornian.l

I'VE do not find it possible, by employ
ment OF all cunning OF ingenuity, to find
for Mrs. Leak any sober, rational and
natural explanation OF her absolute 81
lence at a time when five words by her
would have resulted in finding the body
OF Blanche Lamont week before it WIS
discovered"
This is the eminently sensible conclu-
sion reached by the RECORD UNION after
a careful discussion OF the latest develop
ment in the DurraiIt case. According to
the woman's own account, she held her
peace because she did not want to appear
in court, yet she had also held her pence
Just the same ali the time that Blanche
Lamont was missing. and when even if
sne had told what she knew there was
then no apparent reason 10 have believed
it would have brought her into court.
When Mrs. Leak gets OH the witness
stand and tries u explain her mex pain
able conduct she Is going 10 nave not only
Il very bad quarter of an hour, but sey-
erai hours.

OUR contemporary the Bee says the

ers that it btongs to a profession in
which only itself is pure" This is fiat
and wnlful Misrepresentation. The

teens its profession than does its over

courage to point out that the country

itan sensational and debauching journal
ism is the shame and disgrace of the pro-

Now IT is Mexico that surprises the
world. She comes to the front with case
in which duelist is charged, tried, con-
victed and sentenced, not only TO inn
prisonment. but to heavy fines, and to
pay to the widow of his victim stipend
monthly of very considerable amount.
That such should be the state of public
opinion in Mexico regarding dueling as
is indicated by this conviction of an army
officer. is, to say the least, surprising. In
our own land we might be able to convict
a man Of dueling, but Imprisonment
would be the extent of the penalty i'm

TStOckton Record.

According to the Report the German
Independent military societies are to test
the legality of the order issued by Gov
ernor Budd that no other flag than the
stars and and stripes shall be carried by
any armed body on parade. The Ger
mans. as general rule, are law-abid-
ing, well-behaved class of citizens, who
mind their own business, attend their
various picnics and enjoy themselves,
and will be the last to make any attempt
to override any order made by the Chief
Executive.
Another thing that should be taken
into consideration is that the Germans
would be the first to stop the exhibition
OF foreign flag in their own country,
unless its display was fully authorized.
and they certainly will not expect to do
here what they would never allow in
their own country. 1t is possible they
may file remonstrance with the Gov
ernor, but as for openly defying his
order the Record does not believe the
Germans would be guilty OF such an act.

The new Commissioners of Police of
New York have shown that municipal
and State laws alike can be enforced, no
matter how obnoxious such laws may
be. For nine Sundays consecutively that
commission has successfully closed all the
liquor-drinking places in New York
City, and this in the face of the declara-
ton that the law is not popular one.
The reply of the commission is ''Then re-
move it from the statute books. So long
as the laws and ordinances remain in
self-government is possible by enforcing
them." And this might just as well be
true in every city and State in the Union,
Tho simple truth is that there should be
no such thing as dead letter law.
Such laws really amount to confession
by the people of incompetency, of
incapacity for self-government, in
ability of the people TO enforce de-
crees of their own making, and in this
- eho SHiei Iepioacn VI oui Systehi
in the eyes of the critics of other lands.
But the New York Police Commission is
proving beyond question that under re-
publican forms we can make effective any
law the people may enact, and that the
swiftest and shortest road to repeal of an
obnoxious law is it's rigid enforcement.
1t is altogether probable that at the next
session of the New York Legislature the
excise aud similar laws relating TO dis
pensing liquors and licensing houses of
entertainment, will be greatly modified
simply because the present administra-
ton is enforcing them in all their present
harshness.
