The announcement of Rudyard Kip
ling delivering an address on the South
African question at Brighton, England,
starts the inquiry: Does this indicate
that he is going into politics? Will he
upon opportunity try for parliament
Why not2 He has achieved unusual
distinction in letters. What more nat
ural, therefore. than that he should
seek political honors while his name is
high and the topics Of the hour in the
political field are those to which he has
addressed himself so successfully in the
literary field? The list of Englishmen
of letters who have shown great capa-
city for politics is long and illustrious,
including such well known names in
literature as Milton, Swift, Addison,
Sheridan, Byron, Shelley, Bulwer Lyt-
ton, Macaulay and Beaconstield. Why
should Kipling's name not be added to
the listH He has the reputation of being
a little gruff of speech. but nothing
would so benefit him and sweeten his

Couldn't hold the Olympia back"
quietly remarked Admiral Dewey in
referring to his arrival in New York
two days ahead Of schedule time. The
magnificent warship sped across the
Atlantic from Gibralter like a splendid
ace horse coming down the home
stretch. Her engines, seemingly en-
dowed with life, like the hearts of the
master and his men, appear to have al
most felt the thrill of the home coming
and n realization of the welcome that
awaited them. 1t was the Olympia's
home stretch, and 1t would have been Il
pity for the nayigators to have checked
her speed. But Admiral Dewey says
they couldn't hold her back" and
what the admiral says goes" But it
does not matter as to the day and the
hour of the Olympia's arrival. What
the American people are most interest
ed in and over which they are now re-
joicing throughout the length and
breadth of the land is that the gallant
ship has arrived in safety with the na
TONS hero and his heroic men.

An exchange states the following
truth, which but few people, and -
pecially the fellows who know ''just
how to run a newspaper realize; The
fact is worthy of consideration that if a
newspaper man should print the con-
tents of his waste basket there would
probably be a riot, There would GER
tainly be trouble in many homes, arrests
in some directions, shotguns in another
and trouble all around. But the patron
never sees the waste basket. He only
chances at the beautifully printed page,
complains if a letter i'll fifty is upside
down, growls if "a name in 800 happens
to be wrong, kicks because his COM
munication signed taxpayer has been
condensed into respectable English,
frowns because the editor did not take
advice about publicly telling his neigh
Dor of some short coming, and is gener.
ally disgruptled. He knows not his
share of the waste basket, but If he
could have one look at the contribution
made to that receptacle by his neigh
bors and friends he would be thankful
for the existance of q man of sufficient
intelligence and courage not to print al
he knows, and to temper even that
which he does print"

when full of eggs, slightly resembles a

The effect Of the larvae, especially

However tho Fifty sixth congress
may be disposed TO regard the question
Of setting aside for a national park
1, 900. 900 acres Of land in the Leach
Lake Indian reservation in Minnesota,
it is probable that the discussion of the
matter will eventually result in federal
legislation affecting not only the forests
of Minnesota, but those throughout the
country. Tho necessity OF state or fed
cral control of timber lands is becoming
more generally recognized as the results
of indiscriminate cutting of timber be-
come more apparent.
Cultivation of agricultural lands may
be safely left to the individual owners,
as knowledge of the principles of agri-
culture is generally diffused. and their
violation can affect only the tracts inn
mediately involved. Forestry as u sci.
ence, however. Is little known and in
the United States rarely applied to the
extent its Importance demands.
1t is proposed by the National Park
association to allow the cutting Of tim
Der on the Minnesota forest reserve,
but with proper and scientific ~restric-
tions and under the supervision of
government officials. That this system
might be advantageously applied to all
forest lands, instead Of permitting their
unconditional sale, seems evident when
the successful operation Of the forest
laws Of continental Europe is consid-
cred. France derives u revenue of 81. 81
annually for each acre of its state for
ests; the little duchy Of Baden has an
annual net income of 1907, 900 from its
$40, 900 acres of public forest the Black

ting, and only those trees that are fit
for the AK being taken. S~lashings are
removed and utilized, roads are built
by the foresters for the transportation
of forest produce, telegraph wires pene-
trate the woodland to convey any alarm
of fire, the forest officers are required tc
pass examinations in schools of forestry
and to have practiced forestry on q
range for stated periods.
The proposition thus suggested by
the National Park association is deserv.
ing of the consideration of congress, as
the preservation of our forests is one Of
the most important matters that car
receive its attention.

unqucstionably the most artistic and
elaborate work OF It's Kind ever erected
In this country In co~mmcmoratiOn or
any national or municipal event Is the
triumphal arch aud colonnndc at Madi-
son square, In New York, In honor or
Admiral Dewey and which was one Of
the chief decorative features OF the ad.
mirals reception in the eastern mo
tropolis. II Is In the first place n splcn,
did token of what American sculptors,
working upon their W lines and with
In their own organization, can achieve,
and In the second place, and not less
Important, ms n token of what can be
expected on "a national occasion and
when there IL something worthy to
elicit It, from the public spirit of New
York.
1t must he remembered that this
splendid specimen of sculptural deco
ration was almost wholly the result Of
the public spirit of the associated
sculptors and mural painters OF New
York. Not a 1.-THE of It's actual cost
was paid from the municipal appro-
prlntion for the celebration, the artists
donating not only their time but n con
siderable portion OF the material in its
construction. Unlike many public
works, both OF "A temporary and per
mnncnt character, there was no job
In 1t.
The Dewey arch is thus n just sub
jcct of municipal pride and n fitting
memorial, In so far MS n temporary
structure can be n memorial of n great
national event, and the only regret Is
that 1t is not permanent. 1t will doubt
less be one of the things longest re-
tanned in memory by those who visited
New York during the Dewey f%cstivi-
ties.
Beyond the passing pleasure to the
vision which the arch and c%olonnadc
afford is the lasting impression made
Of the civic spirit and patriotism
shown In It's erection and the melting
of patriotic sentiment in those who be-
held 1t. Its further mission, which Is
not wholly transitory, is the influence
it will have in stimulating, fostering
and improving artistic taste among the
people. Its influence. like that of cv-
cry great work of art, ever though
temporary, is refining and altogether
beneficial. The expenditure of money
and effort in this direction Is not waste
full.

The third rail system of electric pro-
pulsion is superseding steam on many
surface and elevated railroads. The
Brooklyn elevated railroads have adopt
ed it in part, it is in use on the New
York and Brooklyn bridge and two
short surface lines running out of Hart
ford and one running out of Boston
have substituted it for steam. The sys-
tenn doubtless has many merits, but it
has also some dement's, In some re-
spects it is more dangerous than the
overhead trolley wire, One nan was
killed by coming in contact with the
third rail recently nea Hartford, and
a second man was killed the same way
ON the Brooklyn elevated railroad a few
days ago. There is still a question as to
whether the third rail appliance will be
able to Withstand severe winter storms.
1t is still in the experimental stage,
and its introduction should be carefully
guarded and further experiments as to
its adaptation to this climate should be
carefully watched.

Dewey and Credit Sharing.

lnefe are many excellent character
istics and qualities In Admiral Dewey
which excite the admiration of the
American people, but none which so
thoroughly warns their hearts toward
him and cnklndles such deep and en-
during affection as the always thought
full care and interest he takes in his
men, not simply the men behind the
guns" but as well the men down in the
heated engine rooms and sitting coal
bunkcrs, who give that p%ropulsive en-
crgy to the ship without which she
would be powcrlcss.
After being Informed by the New
York committee of the elaborate plans
hat had been made for his reception
in that city he modcstly asked:
What are you going to do for my
men? They will want to take part in
the celebration"
When assured by the committee that
the crew of the Olympia had not been
forgotten and that they would have an
important place in the New York fes-
t~ivlties, the admiral expressed great
satisfaction and told the committee to
20 ahead and do with him as they de-
sired.
This was one Of the many incidents
in connection with his reception in the
nations metropolis and at the national
capital which showed the great cap
tain's anxiety that his own personality
GERS and men to whom he seems in
clined always to give larger measure
Of credit for the victory at Manila than
he is willing to accept for himself.
This is evinced in the warmth of affec-
ton with which he greeted Coghlan,
Dyer, Wildes and Walker, who had
preceded him home. There was
throughout all the demonstrations an
ever apparent desire that all his cap
tains and all his men should share the
honors with him.
The American people esteem highly
this quality. 1t is an element both of
greatness and of goodness that ap-
peals to them with peculiar power.
They admire in the highest degree the
courage and dash which destroyed the
Spanish fleet at Manila and the diplo-
macy and rugged good judgment eX
crcised in the trying situation 5 which
followed the battle, but his country
men love him fol his simple good hui
NOR, his spirit of comradeship, his I'm.
selishncss and his modesty.
Few men who have won such honors
and been the recipients of such ova-
tions as those accorded to Admiral
Dewey have been able to keep their
balance or govern their tongues.
Throughout it all Admiral Dewey has
made no mistakes. He has not lost his
head nor stopped over. There has been
on his part no posing, no theatrical at,
titudes, no self laudatory expressions.
He has been insensible to fiattery, and
adulation has not spoiled him. Saying
the right thing at the right time,
shrinking from every exhibition of full
some praise, his bearing has been that
of a modest, unassuming sailor, and
this has wholly won the hearts of his
countrymen.
