Crawford avalanche. (Grayling, Mich.) 1879-19??, 1900-03-01

The work of reforesting Pennsyl-
vania has been we'll brgun. Thus far
60, 900 acres at the head-waters of the
principal rivers have been purchased
by the state, and 40. 900 more will
soon come into its possession. Most
of the land purchased has been de-
nuded of merchantable timber. the
maximum price of s. per acre fixed
by The Legislature barring the pur-
chase of more valuable lands. This
limitation may not be misfortune
however. Much of the land acquired
has young second growth that will
make valuable timber hereafter; and
while the work of protecting the
waters heds may proceed more slowly
than If timbered land could be OBJ
tanned, lesson in care of forest lands
will be taught, and greater amount
of land will be secured through the
available appropriation. The growth
on the state lands is to be carefully
fostersd, one of the plans being to cut
. protecting lane around the states
Crawford avalanche. (Grayling, Mich.) 1879-19??, 1900-03-01

A club of Chicago ladies has been
discussing the question what is SO
ciety." This is probably pros ect-
ing enterprise. Ii Chicago enterprise
can discover just what society" is
and where it is to be found there is
no doubt that it will proceed to take
possession, no matter what it costs.

land, to bar out neighboring forest

Joseph Leidy, Jr.. of Philadelphia,
In letter to the Ledger, exposes the
&c man pretence of . fear of trich-
inosis as the reason for shutting the
door Wa American pork. There is
little or no trichinosis in this country,
he says, because the native-born cook
their pork thoroughly before eating
it, while the foreign-born. who fire.
quently consume their pork raw, are
protected against their indiscretion
by the thorough system of curing now
pursued in the principal pork-packing
establishments. Because of this lat
ter system, it would be safer, Mr..
Leidy thinks, or the Germans, who
eat pork raw or insufiieiently cooked,
to use the American product rather
than their own. OF 400 cases OF
trichinosis, with 38S deaths, collected
in Germany during the past two years,
in not single instance could the in
lection be traced to American cured
pork, Mr.. Leidy asserts, although our
meat exports to Germany were larger
last year than at any time since the
opposition to American pork.
Early in the history of the govern
ment it was a popular delnsion that
congress was infalible; that, being
composed of the chosen representa-
tives CO the people, it could declare
the will of the people on any subject
and was responsible only to the people
at the polls, but John Marshall knock
ed this theory in the head, and in hrs
first famous decision decla Jared that the
Supreme court was the highest and
final authority of the government,
with power to review and revoke the
acts of both the executive and the
Legislative branches, although under
the constitution they are coordinate.
This decision created profound SEN
sation and provo ed a storm OF dis
sent and Indignation throughout the
entire nation Many constitutional
amendments, resolutions and bills
were introduced upon the theory that
the voice of the people, as ressed
through their Representatives in con-
gress. was the voice of God, but when
the excitement died down congress
accepted the decision and has since
conformed its laws to the decisions OF
the court.

The foot of the American locomo.
tive continues to encircle the globe.
This time the Paris and Orleans Rail
way, of France, wants ten of our iron
giants-and the order is the first ever
placed in this country by the company
operating that line. We have set the
pace and we mean to keep it.

Prof. Robert Koch, the celebrated
bacteriologist in the Deutsche Med
icinitsche Wochenschrift, reporting
upon the results of the Java malaria
expedition, says that these fully cor
roborate his theory, already illustrated
on the German East African coast.
1t is that where there are mosquitoes
there is always malaria, and that
where there are no mosquitoes there
is no malaria.

The Johnson City Foundry and Ma

branch plant at Bristol. The Bristol
Foundry & Machine Co. was recently
destroyed by fire and that town is now
without such an institution. G. w.

pany, says he has the matter of a branch
plant at Bristol under adyisement
and may put it in. He is one OF the
best machinlsts in the state and thG
Foundry & Machine Works has done
better under his management than a
any time in its history. II he decides
