REGARDING FOREST RESERVE.

The scientist who wants the sheep
kept off of the Cascade forest reserve
for fear that they would eat the moss,
is, of course, a Californian. If he
should stay in Oregon a while he
would find that moss is here indigo
nous, exotic and spontaneous. 1t is
both an independent grass and a
fungus. 1t grows In water, on dry
soil and on trees, and on the backs
of some people.
There is good deal of foolish
ness about the Cascade timber re-
serve. There is more of 1T than is
necessary. Pasturing sheep on it is
not going to do the trees or the
underbrush or the moss any harm.
Recently the department at Wash
ingtcn ordered the cruisers to be
sent into the reserve Immediately, to
keep down fires! If they were to be
sent in now, relief parties would have
to be sent in after them soon, to
rescue them. The snow over large
part of the reserve is from ten to
forty feet deep. One of the orders
once given TO the cruisers from
Washington was to cut trails ten or
twenty feet wide, to prevent the
spread of fires! II would take some
OF the cruisers thousand years to
cut the proper trails in their district,
and then it would not stop fire in
the timber, once it got started

One of the peace commissioners
sent from the rebel camp to confer
with General Otis said he had been
studying the constitution of the
United States and he liked it. He
had made up his mind that he wanted
one just like it for his country. He
may be likened to the baby that cries
for the pretty moon. A constitution
like the United States constitution
would do the Filiplnos no good.
They would not know how to ad-
minister the laws or conduct them
selves under it. Most of them would
lot know it from a plate of baked
beans. 1t will require several gen
erations of training, under strict rules
well enforced, to bring the people of
that country up to the point where
the constitution of the United States
will do them any good. But they
will come to it, for they will have
that sort of training.
