After a good deal of music, chin and

great gusto, Marching Through Geor-

called on for a speech, and said:
There has been within the past two

At least the Loyal Legion has a naive

AN ONSLAUGHT ON OUR TREES

Referring 10 the scheme of q syndicate
of New York and London bankers to
form n lumber trust in North Carolina
to control the States output of pine tim
her. the capacity of the trusts mills to
he 100000 feet a day, the Charleston
News and Courier says:
1T is very promising scheme for
those who are working it, and should be
a very profitable one. The immense TIM
Der areas they control We're bought
cheap. and the market value OF the lum-
Der derived from it is advancing every
day with the growing demand and de
creasing supply. The syndicate has "a
good thing" in sight and in hand, and
should be, and doubtless will be, able 70
make millions of dollars in profits cut
of the development" by means of axe
and saw, of the forests it has so easily
acquired. With a saw mill capacity of
600000,000 feet of lumber a year it will
make short work of the trees, OF course.
and few years later North Carolina will
be importing pine Humber for its own
needs, and paying we'll for all bit gets"
There is little doubt the News and
Courier is right in its forecast of the
ultimate result. With no trust to help
along the work of destruction the State
is being denuded of its forests at rate
sufficiently rapid to excite alarm. In
many parts of the State there is now no
timber left TO supply even local needs,
owing largely to the facts that when the
fields have been run down by continual
succession of cotton crops the farmers
have thrown them out no grow useless
scrub oak and ''old field pine" while
they felled the forests to get new fields.
The higher price of lumber and the in
creased demand for it have stimulated
local mills to an unprecedented degree
and the forests are melting away before
them.
When the new trust gets down to bust
ness it will be the beginning Of the end,
and the end will not be so far away,
either, as many people imagine.
While there is yet time steps should be
taken to protect the States forests.

Agood-sized audience assembled last
evening at Cooperative hall, where a
special meeting was held under the
auspices of the church of Jesus Christ
of Latter Day Saints. Elder Joseph L.
Finlinson, president of the East Penn
sylvania conference, presiding. After
the usual devotional exercises, Presi-
dent Finlinson spoke briefly upon the
tenets of the faith of the Latter Day
Saints, closing with an introduction
of Elder William II. Smart, president
of the Eastern States Mission, as
speaker of the evening.
President Smart gave an interesting
address upon the warnings and tes-
timonies of God unto this generation
preceding the second advent of the
Savior, from a Mormon standpoint.
Referring to Holy Writ he showed
that in past ages God had always
warned the people before the consum-
nation of any great event. The
speaker then spoke to his subject un-
der the following heads:
1.-Warning of heavenly messen-
gers.
2.-Warning Of men commissioned of
God.
3.-Warning of human disturbances
as in war, which is to be poured out
upon all nations.
4.-Warnings of elemental and ply
Steal disturbances, as in tempests,
earthquakes. seas heaving beyond
their bounds, thunderings, lightnings,
etc.
5.--WarninEs Of planetary disturb
ances. as in the earths reeling to and
fro, the suns being darkened, the
moons having the appearance of
blood, the stars falling in the heavens.
G-Profound silence in the heavens
and the earth.
The speaker closed by vividly por-
traYing Gods mercy to His children
in testimony by passing from the eX-
trcmity of the voice of heavenly mes
sengcrs to the voice of men, from the
voice of thunderings, earthquakes and
