Words of Warning.

There was a time, long, long ago,
when schoolmasters placed "wise old
saws" before their pupils. They we're
not artistically engraved and embossed
to hang on the walls as a pleasing bit
of color but were written at the top of
the black board and changed every few
months. No word was spoken concern
ing the lesson they would teach. It
was NOT explained in many words of
one syllable each. o no; each youth
full eye was sure to wander from the
book some time and with the curiosity
of youth read what was written and
ponder the meaning. Senseless some
OF them seemed at the first glance but
those wise old teachers, college men
most of them, knew right we'll that the
curiosity Of youth would keep the mind
of youth busy until it was satisfied as
to the meaning of what the eye had
read.
One old proverb that used to adorn
those old time black boards was: 1.-THE
river passed and God forgotten. But
that was long, long, ago, when the
writer was young and foolish; so long
ago that it seems the great majority OF
Jackson's citizens must have been yet
unborn for surely they have never con-
sidered that prOverb well or they would
rouse themselves and clean their town.
Was not the smallpox warning enough
that outraged nature would endure it's
filth no longer? Must you wait o, We
foolish ones, until the Bubonic plague
is in your midst?
Who owns the creek bed? Would it
not be possible and feasible to bury one
large sewer pipe in it and into that
large one let smaller ones open carry
ing off the sewerage from at least the
greater part of the town. With such
fall as the creek bed has it would be
a very simple matter to flush the sewer.
The filth that is daily emptied into
creek and washed ashore is sufficient to
imperil the lives and destroy the sense
OF smell of nine tenths of the inhabi-
tants. And you dwell in silence in the
shadow of greater calamity for 'com-
ing events cast their shadows before. ="
Why is the great dam above you be-
ing built of dirt and stones instead of
solid cement? Is it that counterpart
of the YOUNGSTOWN horror may adorn the
pages of newspapers some years hence?
Suppose an Industrious little gopher
should tunnel through that dam. The
great volume of water confined by it
would do the rest and the dwellers on
the mountain tops would have to con-
duct the funerals.
The voice OF age is feeble. The
counsels of the aged little needed. But
as life draws nearer to its close the
eyes take broader view of things and
the mind takes on more quiet humane
reasoning concerning the duties each
man owes his fellnw-man.

ROOM IN THE WEST.

II Is not generally known that there
are in the United States unutilized
acres Of land 10 the extent OF 600. 900
900 acres. There are times when we
are apt TO think that the country is
getting a tribe o~yercrowded and we
welcome the opening OF little tracts
OF a few hundred thousand acres as
affording opportune relief to n condi-
ton OF almost dangerous congestion.
But all Europe does not possess the
area which Is included in the arid re-
gion west OF the Mississippi. There's
the rub-it Is an arid region. But In
these days OF vast increase in the EN-.
ployment OF irrigation the solution OF
the problem OF congestion appears.
This tremendous eXpanse OF terri
tory is capable of supporting a popu,
lation OF so ,000, 900 people. At the
increase rate OF only Ave or six mil
lion in a decade, IL will be a long time
before the population Of the country
has reached 1875, 200 900. But the time
is coming, and long before II arrives
preparations must be made 10 accom-,
MEDIATE a population roughly estimated
by these figures.
Those who foresee the oYeroTCwdei
condition OF the country must take
into account that the fact that a rad,
zeal revision OF the immigration laws
Is only a question of time and not
merely with the suppression OF an
archy In view. That consideration
will have little hume zeal cn"ct. But
as population increases, consestod con
di'ions will become more and moro
strenuous and relief must come from
the west.
