RAzOR-BACK HOGS AND FOREST
Fires

A few days ago we called the atten-
ton of the Legislature to the necessity
for additional legislation for the pro-
lection of the young pines of the state
agains forest fires. Yesterday we pub
lished an interview with Mr.. H. H.
Tilt, president of the Georgia Saw Mill
Association, in which he says that the
two great evils to a new growth of
pines on the pines lands which have
been cleared of their timber are the
razor-back hog and forest fires. He
is authority for the statement that ev-
cry year tens of thousapds of acres OF
pine lands are burnt over and the
young pines destroyed. and pines are
prevented from growing on pine lands
by the razor back hogs, which destroy
the pine mast, or seed. and also root
out young pines. The law for the pro-
lection of the young pines is not only
inadequate, but its enforcement is TOO
lax.
If present conditions are permitted
to continue it will not be very long
before the lumber and naval stores in
dustry will dwindle to small proper
lions in this state. Why the Legisla-
ture will not do something more for
the protection of the pine forests, par
ticularly for the protection of young
pines is one OF the things
that is difficult to understand.
1t is known, of course, that
the average man In the country
thinks that forest fires and razor
back hogs are of far more Importance
than the lumber and naval stores in
dustries. but there is no good reason
why the average legislator should take
this view He knows what source OF
wealth these industries are. and there
fore should be willing TO take steps to
encourage and perpetuate them
Mr.. Tiff points out that the pine for
ests are rapidly disappearing. He Is in

THE pIsPENsARY BILL.

The indications are that the Wright
dispensary bill will be as favorably re-
ceived in the Senate as it was in the
House. Our Atlanta dispatches say
/ that il seems to meet with the hearty
/ concurrence of the Senators as solu-
| ton of the vexed liquor traffic problem.
1t is probable that it does not have the
full approval of some Of the extreme
prohibitionists, but in view of the fact
that its author is a prohibitionist, and
that it has the support Of prohibition
lists who are beginning to admit that
it would be about impossible to enforce
a prohibition law, the chances are that
it will be passed by the Senate. We
called attention the other day to the
fact that some of the strongest OPP
ponents of the open saloon on Sunday
in New York City are now admitting
that some concession must be made
TO those who insist upon having their
beer and wine on Sundays. So pro-
nounced a hater of the saloon as DR..
Parkhurst says that he hopes that
there will be legislation that will per-
nit the sale of beer and light wines on
certain hours of Sunday" He does not,
of course, take this position because he
wants the saloon open at any time of
that day of the week, but because he
knows from experience that it is prac-
tically impossible to prevent the sale
of intoxicants entirely on Sunday. If
l. IT. l.. ole
the saloons altogether. but, as he can
not get all he wants, he thinks it the
wiser plan to take what he can get.
The Raines law has been a failure,
notwithstanding the efforts to enforce
it, and it is probable that DR.. Park
hurst believes that, in the present con-
dition of public sentiment, it is i'm
possible to inforce it.
1t is stated that the newly elected
mayor of New York. Mr.. Low, favors
the saloon shall be open on certain
hours on Sunday for the sale of beer
and light wines to a vote of the peo-
pie. In other words, he favors local
option. We have pointed out many
times that this is the best way of set
Ting the liquor traffic question and it
looks as if the temperance people of
this state are coming to that view.
In this state we have local option. If
the Wright bill should pass we would
still have it. The only difference would
be that a county would then have the
right to choose between barrooms, a
dispensary or prohibition. If prohibit
ton law could be enforced the liquor
traffic question would be discussed
from an altogether different standpoint
that is, by those who now favor tenn
perance, but, as experience shows that
it cannot be inforced, the question is,
what is the best way to deal with the
liquor traffic? No doubt Mr.. Wright
had this in mind when he prepared his
dispensary bill.

Gen. Butler once explained why it

The Motorman.

Our own Solomon, says the Balti-
more American, cogitateth upon the
braketwister and maketh some true re-
marks concerning him.
Consider now the motorman:
Behold. he ariseth at the dawn of day
and goeth unto the stables, and
curreyth down his car;
He putteth his ulster upon him, and
setteth large glove upon his mighty
hand;
And he leadeth the car out upon the
streets, that he may worry the people.
He seeth Uncle Josiah from the coun-
try driving in his piano-b box buggy.
And he sneaketh up behind him with
the gum shoe tread of the weasel that
chaseth the rat.
And when the car hath reached with
in two feet of Uncle Josiah's buggy he
So that he maketh noise like unto
the anvil chorus.
And Uncle Josiah junnpeth within
his skin and sayeth begosh and be-
gum and many other medderlot oaths.
Yea, and, Uncle Josiah's horse jump
eth also; it jumpeth sideways and
slantingiy and up and down and break
eth the shafts and runneth adown the
highway and spilleth Uncle Josiah over
against a lamppost;
SO that Uncle Josiah is garnered in
by the policeman and given ten dollars
or ten days for being disorderly.
But the motorman goeth on his way
rejoicing.
Yea, he smileth in his sleeve and say
eth: 10, that is a good start"
Peradventure he cometh along unto
where there standeth a woman who
hath her darling child by the hand.
And the woman calleth unto the
child, saying: Now, Willie, go not
nigh unto the car, for it will assuredly
bump thee"
Now, Willie straightway goeth to-
ward the car, and his mother yelleth
and the motorman bangeth the gong
and runneth the car so that it nippeth
the buttons from off WilHe's garments.
But the motorman goeth on his way
rejoicing.
And after a time he cometh into the
heart of the city, where the people
stand upon the corners and make mo-
ton with their hands that they fain
would ride upon his car.
Yet he scotch past them with the
scoot of the loop-the-loop when 1t
feeleth its oats:
Verify, he looketh not at them, save
to grin with the grin Of one who hath
great gladness in his heart.
And the people who stand upon the
corners do make vain utterances
against the motorman and the car and
the company.
They put up blue monologue, in
deed,
Yet it availeth them not.
For the motorman goeth as he pleas
eth and stoppeth when he listeth.
He runneth slow only upon the street
where his girl liveth,
When he reacheth her house he lean
eth over the dashboard and waveth his
hand at her and the car smiteth a
colored woman who hath weeks
washing in her arms,
And the colored woman shouteth
with a loud voice. saying: Ian sakes,
white man, whaddematter wifi youI"
For she hath been knocked over
against a show window and hath glass
in her hair and wrath in her eye,
While the weeks washing is scatter
ed as the leaves of the forest.
Thus it is that the motorman goeth
through the city, leaving behind him
naught but bad language and disap-
pointment and wreckage.
Verify, the motorman may yet be a
problem that is solved, but now he
hath all things his own way.
And it is better to stand from his
path than to become a martyr to prin-
ciple and a subject for the hospital.

From Prohibition Kansas.

That prohibition does not prohibit
has been asserted many times, and
facts to support the contention are
numerous. says the New York Times.
The question is still debated in sew
eral parts of the country, however, and
therefore do we regard as of great i'm
portance, because absolutely decisive
of the controversy, the following mar
rative, which we find in a paper pub
lished at Whiting, Kan: "a Whiting
man while on his way home this week
had an experience in the City Park the
other night which is very thrilling. AS
he was passing near the band stand
he heard a strange noise. After investi-
eating he found it came from a large
rattlesnake. 1t was pinioned to log

He set the snake free and went on his
journey homeward, unconscious that
the snake was following He sat down
to supper. and in picking up a spoon
which he had carelessly dropped on the
floor again saw the snake He fed it and
them became fast friends. The snake
would eat from his hand, wrap around
his neck, and hug him, and sleep coil
ed up on the foot of the bed. This con-
t!nued for a week or more. But one
night the man was restless and could
not sleep. He called to the snake, and
it did not respond as usual, so he
arose, lighted the lamp and began to
search for his pet He found the snake
in the perlor wrapped around the neck
of a burglar. and it's tail hanging out
of the window. rafting for the police"
Considered merely as a snake story
that is only a fair specimen of it's kind
but coming from Kansas it ought to
put an end to all claims as to the pro-
hjoftiveness of prohibition. OF course,
the advocates of that policy will fight

MIR. SCHWAB's SALARY.

There has been a great deal of spec
ulation respecting the amount of the
salary of Mr.. Charles NJ. Schwab, the
president of the United States Steel
Corporation, known as the billion dol
lar trust. At the time of the formation
of the trust it was stated that his sal
airy had been fixed at $1,000, 000 No
doubt this statement was very general
ly accepted. 1t turns out, however,
that it is only 100000 year. but it is
alleged that he receives, in addition,
one quarter of one per cent of all
earnings over and above the amount
required to pay the fixed charges and
Z per cent. on the preferred and 4 per
cent. on the common stock. AS it
takes about $75,OOO,O00 to pay these
amounts, and as it is estimated that
the earnings of the trust for the first
year of its existence will be about
$125,000Oo0, thus leaving a surplus of
$4,000, 600, Mr.. Schwab will get this
year a salary of about $225,0OO, or, to
put it in another shape, he will get his
salary of 100000 and a contingent fee
of $125, 900. 1t is a safe statement that
he is the best paid employee in the
world. The next best paid employees
in this country are the presidents of the
largest life insurance companies. There
are three of them who get 100000 a
year each. If, at the beginning of the
last century, any one had suggested
that within one hundred years the
president of an iron and steel company
would be paid a salary of $225,0O0 a
year he would have been thought fit
subject for the lunatic asylum.

Several Georgia congressman are on
the tenter-h hooks respecting the new
redstricting OF the state that must be
made in accordance with the law, on
the basis of the new census. South
Georgia has gained in population dur
ing the past ten years more rapidly
than North Georgia, so that it is pos
sible to make the advantage come this
way in the redistricting, and at the
same time to throw out of their dis
tricts some of the representatives
who now illustrate Georgia at Wash
ington. There has been talk of inn
portant changes in several of the dis
tricts. One change, so 1t is reported.
contemplates rearranging the Tenth SO
as to make the advantage in favor of
Mr.. Hardwick as against Mr.. Fleming.
Another rumored change has for its
purpose the elimination OF Newton
county and Col. Livingston from the
Fifth, and so on. Ten years or so ago,
according 10 the Constitution. the
Fifth would have submitted to the ex-
tirpation of Uncle Lon" without a
whimper of pain or even protest. But
now it is different. THE Colonel has
grown TO be an Atlanta institution. He
knows how to pull wires and get
things; therefore the Gate City wants
TO keep him where he can do the most
good.

The Legislative Committee on Con-
stitutional Amendments recommends
that biennial instead of annual sessions
of the Legislature shall be held, and
that the term of the session shall be
limited to sixty days. The recommen-
dation should meet with the prompt
approval of the General Assembly.
There can be no doubt that the people
would ratify such an amendment if it
were submitted to them. We have en-
tirely too much legislation. There is no
need for the mass of it that comes up
in the annual sessions. The people
would be better off for fewer laws, and
better ones, And besides, biennial ses-
sions would save considerable sums of
money.
