COUNTRIES DEVOID OF TREES.
Something About Barren Districts Sit
uated Around the Mediterranean.

Anyone who has travelled through
the comparatively treeless countries
around the Mediterranean, such as
Spain, Sicily, Greece, northern Africa
and large portions of Italy, must
fervently pray that our own country
may be preserved from so dismal a
fate says President Charles w. Eliot.
1t is not the loss of the forests only
that is to be dreaded, but the loss of
agricultural regions now fertile and
populous, which may be desClated by
the floods that rush down from the
bare hills and mountains, bringing
with them vast quantities of sand and
gravel to be spread over the lowlands.
Travelling a few years ago through
Tunisie, / came suddenly upon fine
Roman bridge of stone over wide,
bare, dry river bed. 1t stood some
thirty feet above the bed of the river
and had once served the needs of a
prosperous population. MarVeling
at the height of the bridge above the
ground, I asked the French station
master if the river ever rose to the
arches which carried the roadway OF
the bridge His answer testified to
the flooding capacity of the river and
to the strength of the bridge. He said,
IT have been here four years, and
three times I have seen the river run
ming over the parapets of that bridge.
That country was once one of the
richest granaries of the Roman en-
pire. 1t now yields a scanty support
for a sparse and semibarbarous popu-
lation." The whole region round

about is treeless. The care of the ma
tional forests is a provision for flu
ture generations, for the permanence
over vast areas of our country for the
great industries of agriculture and
mining upon which the prosperity of
the country ultimately depends. A
good forest administration would soon
support itself.

To the recent Congress of Mothers II
New York there came one day little old
man, wearing cape coat in dark brown
checked tweed and carrying a high silk
hat that looked as though it had been out
in the rain. Tho small brown eyes of the
little old man peered interestedly over q
pair Of gold spectacles, while his gray
streaked brown hair was parted on one
side and cut squarely across the nape Of
the neck. 1t was DR.. Mary Walker.
DR.. Mary wore no gloves. She carried
a stick as we'll as an umbrella unfurled,
Her trousers of black serge were triAe
full at the hem. Evidently she does not
conform to the latest fashion in neg ton
pantaloons, though perhaps these were her
other trousers. High calfskin boots
shod her feet, which looked femininely
small. Under the velvet collar of the cape
coat was festooned a narrow fringed scarf
of black merino. At her throat was a
Piccadilly collar of white linen and a black
satin fourth hand tie, fastened with a
pearl scarfpin. Her white linen pocket
handkerchief, which she fourished with
JUNCTION, appeared to be Of the feminine
persuasion.
But most interesting of all to those
who sat so near they they had an uninter-
fupted view Of the doctor, was the revela.

of wearing mems clothes she has not yet

An interesting story is told by Professor
Dean G. Worcester Of Michigan university,
who has just been appointed by President
Mckinley as one Of the members Of the
Philippine commission. He has made sew
eral tours through the Philippines and in
one of his books relates that native of
the islands begged from him copy of
Judge containinga cartoon of ex-Presi-
dent Cleveland, portraying him in the
garb of friar, with tin halo supported
by an upright from the back of his COLLAR
Mr.. Cleveland was represented in an atti-
tude Of devotion, with hands olasped and
tears rolling down his cheeks.
Professor Worcester did not understand
why the Filipino begged so earnestly for
the colored print, but after returning from
hunting expedition Of few days the
matter was explained. He found the car
toon of the ex-president hung at one end
Of the hut In neat bamboo frame, and in
the evening the father, mother and all tho
children fell on their knees and offered
their devotions before it.
Professor Worcester adds that "Mr.
Cleveland is the first American president
who has been canonized "-Leslie's Week

The Legislature Adjourned

The Legislature adjourned sine
die on Monday afternoon. It's do
ings are now a matter of history.
The bills passed are worthy of COM
mendation with very few exceptions.
The failure to elect a Senator vice
Hon. George Gray, whose term ex-
pired on the 4th of March. is the
cause of more complaint than any
other act of omission. 1t is to be
regretted, because it will tend to
further divide the party and contrib
ute to it's defeat. To be successful
the two wings must unite or the
Democrats will dominate the State
just as effectually as they have done
for the past fifty years. To be sue
cessful old scores must be rubbed
out and new beginning made on
solid foundation. The first princi-
pie to be incorporated in success
ful creed is that the majority shall
rule; in other words, the minority
must submit to the decision of the
majority. Beside, there cannot be
any reservation about it-not
promise to secure nomination that
may be disregarded after the cleo
ton. Those who have practiced
deception in the past cannot COM
plain if they should not be trusted
in the future. Should any suffer,
they may thank their regeneration
for It. The election for Mayor,
Council and other officers will take
place in few weeks and we fear
the result. The leaders of the
party should exert their influence
to restore harmony. If they can
not succeed in doing so, they had
better acknowledge their imbecility
and retire from positions they have
used to CRAFTY personal aims in
stead Of trying to promote the pub
lie welfare. We advise deliberation
Men should not act too hastily. Our
local affairs are more important
than the election of a United States
Sen ator. Good Government in our
city is quite as important as in the
nation at large. We want an eff.
cient and economical administra-
ton and the keeping of taxation
down to the lowest limit consistent
with the public welfare, and there
fore we urge deliberation and union
on the part of all Republicans.
Let the past be forgotten and trust
to the future to bring forth more sat
isfactory results.
