GA USES AND EFFECTS.

There is every prospect that the annual
average of destruction by forest fires will be
equaled, II not exceeded, this year. Already
disastrous fires are raging in various parts
OF this country and in Canada, accomps.
MED by loss Of life. These fires are pro-
NOTED by the drought, which in recent years,
have been nearly constant characteristic Of
the Autumn season. On the other hand, evi.
dence is not wanting that the destruction OF
our forests is among the principal causes of
the annual drought, so that each facilitates
the aggravation Of the general trouble.
The losses have already been sufficient to
attract intelligent attention and elicit pleas
for protective measures, but no practical
movement has yet been made toward giving
relief.
The loss Of valuable forest resources i'm.
presses the woodman with the idea that
something should be done without bringing
him to see that he is one of the responsible
agents himself Untoward seasons bring the
farmer TO realizing sense that some natural
law has been violated, though he has not
reached clear conception OF what should
be done in the premises. Nsvigators are
similarly affected, but are apparently too
occupied with their individual affairs to give
more than casual or oratorical attention to
common welfare. The authorities govern
ing municipal water supplies-except in
rare instances-have apparently not yet
discerned that the problem is OF direct in.
terest to them, or to the people supplied
In word, the engrossing race for riches,
which so often ends in failure, leaves no
time for the mass OF the people to reach an
intelligent conclusion and to press that con-
clusion TO practical results. The conse.
quence Of Indifference will be tremendous
loss TO the whole country, but the man who
is in such eager pursuit of personal fortune
that he cannot see the pitfall in bis own
pathway Is not likely to think much for pos
terity The remedy will be applied, as it
has been in Europe, when the disease be-
comes desperate and it is too late for the
ounce of prevention.

appointed by the society TO consider the sub
ject The committee was unable 70 agree
as to the subject Tor the second statue, but

following distinguished MarylAnders of rev
pulmonary times Thos. johnson, John
Hanson and John Eager Howard.
In their report the committee states that
IL was unanimously determined shat Cecil
ius Calvert, the first lord proprietary and
founder Of the province. by reason of his
peculiar relations TO the history of the State,
and his perfect fulfillment OF ell require
ments, is prominently worthy of this Ms
