fairly certain that good many amendments will be
proposed at the coming session of Congress. These
will include changes providing for the election OF
United States Senators by direct vote of the people,
the lengthenng OF the term of Representatives from
two to four years. the lenghenng OF the Presidential
term to six years with provision that the ncum-
bent OF the office shall be eligible for reelection
and one changing the date of Inauguration There Is
another which has been suggested by member OF the
House from Kansas, by which the sessions of Con-
gress shall be held alternately in the West and in tie
East.
OF all these propositions the only which has
1nuch chance for passage in either House is that regu
iatng the election OF United States Senators. The
Others hardly than matters for academic de-
bate. In any the Republican party OF the ma
ton is likely approve the plan recommended by
Nebraska. A convention called to revise the Fed
era constitution would be about the worst political
calamity that could beall the country The organic
law under which the republic has lived for than
century has its defects but the present generation
OF statesmen is hardly fitted to be trusted with the
work OF making better one.

THE LESSON OF THE FIRES.

= IRE in the Sutro forest, sweeping the hills
and threatening the buildings OF the Affiliated
Colleges and many dwellings and shops, brings
home to the people of San Francisco the dread
danger that mpends over all the wooded districts Of
California during the dry and heated season. 1t
calls once the heavy losses annually inflicted
upon the State by such fires and mpresses upon the
popular mind the importance OF devising and putting
into effect some comprehensive plan for the protec
ton OF the forests and the manifold interests that de-
pend upon them.
Bad as the fire was in the Sutro woods it was but
triAe in comparison to the fires raging in the for
ests elsewhere. In the Santa Cruz Mountains a fire
which had been smodering for some days broke out
hercely in the hot winds OF Sunday and destroyed
not only large quantity of valuable timber, but
vineyards and barns and dwellings. Even worse re-
ports come from other districts. Dispatches from
Keswic that for four days forest fires have
been running over the Clear Creek region west OF
Shasta while other reports tell Of destructive flames
raging from Covelo to Laytonvile, and from Cahto
to Westport, sweeping everything infamnable in
their path
The worst of such fires is that the damage
does not end with the immediate property loss. The
destruction of the timber every considerable area
of land tends to change the natural order OF the
watercourses from steady streams running all the year
round to spring that rush the SEAS leaving
their courses dry during the season when the water
is most needed. In that way every industry is in
ured and the soil itself threatened with barrenness
In hardly any civilized portion OF the world has the
lesson OF the need of forest protection been more
srikngly taught than in California 1t has been costly
enough to make it impressive the most ndif-
ferent The annual losses done to farms, pastures,
vineyards, orchards and buildings of one kind or
another amount far more than the sum that would
be required to establish efficient forest police and
protection 1t is wasteful folly hesitate longer in
undertaking such policy, and it is be hoped the
public mind will become thoroughly educated
the subject that when the next Legislature meets a
comprehensive scheme OF forest protection will be
provided for by appropriate laws.
