Star wanted the tree removed. The
Bulletin shook a red flag at the tree
destroying Star, with the words" Wood
man spare that tree" inscribed on it.
At once the duel was on. Each paper
used its own fayOrite weapon. That of
/ the Bulletin is a Damascus blade, with
the war cry of "bumptuous fatul-
ence" inscribed on it. The sight or
| hearing Of these words inspires terror
and flight. That Of the Star is a mo-
dern Connecticut blade, carefully tenn
| pered, in taro patch, with the war
cry Of bilious dyspeptic" engraved on
it. The sight or hearing of these words
also strikes terror and leg impelling
fear into an enemy. Both war cries,
used with singular effect on the Ad-
vertiser, were selected from an ency-
clopedia of newspaper invective, and
are the most effective since the due.s
of the Knights Of the Printers Ink
were introduced into Germany several
centuries ago.
In the duel over the Vineyard street
tree, the Star lunged its bilious dys-
peptic" rapier at the Bulletin and nip
ped it's ear. On the other hand, the
Bulletin, with it's own superb blade of
"bumptuous flatulence" cut the Stars
ham strings, contrary to the code of
duelling. Above the contestants, the
confusion by the piercing, sharp, re-
lentless, snorting war cries that have
driven the mynah birds over the Pail,
and sent the goats flying from the
Punchbowl slopes.
The duel is over now. The Vine
yard street tree stands, as is should
stand. The Bulletin yells to the tree
assassinating Star, ''foiled!" ''foiled!"
Keeping it's lonely watch, in the still
night air, PAGES the Knight of the
Bulletin through Vineyard street, NUT
tering 'bumptuous fiatulence" at its
fallen adversary. 1t is alone, solemn,
ferocious and victorious.
These deeds are usually celebrated
in song. The poet of the Advertiser,
therefore quotes the tale of similar
duel:
There onst was two cats in Kilkenny
And aich thought there was one cat
too many;
So they quarelled and fit,
And they goughed and they bit,
Till excepting their nails,
And the tips of their tails.
Instead of two cats there warn't any"

THE FORESTS.

We are sure that the HilO Her
aid does not intend to criticise un
fairly DR.. MaXwelIs views regard
ing forest reservations. While he
is engaged to promote the inter
ests of the sugar planters, his OPP
inions are altogether too broad to
be Influenced by any personal rea-
sons. He may be in error about a
matter which is not yet well I'M
derstOod. We see that the evidence
ON the subject Of forest influence
on rainfall is conflicting. Many
facts tend to show that the fall
of rain is entirely superior to the
existence or nOn-eXistence Of for
ests.
The best evidence of DR.. Max
wells impartiality in the matter
is his voluntary recommendation
that Prof. FurnOw be invited to
examine and report on our forests,
although Prof. FurnOw declares
that the argument for forests on
the ground that they attract rain
"is open to attack without sure
defense"
To narrow the area of the coffee
lands is a very serious matter, and
it should not be done unless there
is abundant evidence in favor of
it.
One of the most important ques-
tons for the planters to debate is,
the best means for preventing in
so many places the waste OF irri-
CATION water. When they have
conserved the visible water sup
ply, and find it deficient, they can
ask for special provisions for Sc
curing an additional supply.

THE DEFEAT OF A LAW.

When general public sentiment
is not in favor of a law, it sim
ply ignores it. The Maine Liquor
law has been on the statute books
of that State since 1850, and has
never been enforced effectively.
1t did much good in limiting the
sale of liquors, but it did not pro
hibit. 1t illustrates the failure of
all laws which do not represent
the average opinion. Although
the law peremptorily forbade the
sale of alcoholic liquor, it was de
feated by Il very practical, but IL
legal device. In Bangor, Maine,
for instance, liquor was sold at
retail by number of men. Once
a year they were brought before
the Police Court, charged with
violation of the law and were each
fined 500 for years Offense.
This sum was regarded as equiva-
lent to years license to sell
liquor. AS the fines brought in Il
steady revenue to many of the
towns, there were no serious or
effective efforts made to enforce
absolute prohibition in many
places. The law stood on the
statute book as prohibition
measure, but the people turned it
into license measure by prac-
teal fiction.
The laws of a country do not
rise above the character of the
people, unless the Government is
despotic or an oligarchy. 1t is so
here. The prohibition of the sale
of liquor to a native, was the work
of kings and chiefs, who wisely
made the law without reference to
the will of the native people. In
the course of time, the power of
the kings and chiefs declined, and
the power of the natives increas-
ed, through the ballot box. They
wished, as so many American
communities wish, that liquor
should be sold to themselves, and
they prevailed. The king favored
the change, because the natives
desired it, The same principles
or social evolution exist here, as
they exist elsewhere. Laws that
are "better" than the average peO-
pie become obsolete in a demo
cratic state.
