NEEDS RED BLOOD

Arnelie Rives' poem, "a Hymn ITO the Sea-
in the June North American Review, is char
aeteristic Of her rather pessimistie spirit.
Before abe married Chanler she had in print
written herself down as a somewhat despond
ent young woman. It was not long before
Chanler had to. be sent to an insane asy-
lunn. She since married a. Polish or Rus
sian count. In this Hymn to the Sea- she
becomes a nature worshiper and appeals to
the sea as the ''soother of woes unsoothed
else,'' and the "desire of desolate poet
SOULS" declaring that dark sorrow has ''be-
guiled from all things lovely" her tortured
soul. Thus runs her appeal:
Thou who didst take wild sappho to thy
And smooth her. glorious hadr to maiden
And kiss her cool, pale lips to lovely rest,
Surely unto her handmaids strong with
To crave Of thee surcease. thou wouldst be
kind
Yea, to the least of them, even unto me
o sure magician OF tired souls and blind?
LO, can feel thee drawing me to thee
Even as thyself art, by ,Selene drawn, >.
The while fair Tethys. with the certain
OF wives and goddesses, reigns calmly on
Ger all but thy vast tides. A weary while,
"A weary while have been Gagged OF fate;
Free now my ready SOUL ere freedom be
too late.
This is certainly serious case of the
blues A married woman who Is anxious to
get into the green gloomed realm of the
sea. and fears ''flane white ghost and
would be put to sleep in 'grotto of white
coral veiled with sheen of purple sea-weed, .
and again beseeches the sea:

is evidently in real need of a good and hearty
game OF golf or a ten -1nile cycle ride over a
good road, to get some red corpuscles in the
tides Of her blood

STILL AT IT

The senate seems unwilling to drop
reciprocity altogether. Senator Teller
announced yesterday that he would op-
pose the proposed reciprocity legislation
because it proposed a reduction of duties
on the "only product of the American
farmer that has any real protection" and
that he would be willing to engage in any
revision of the tariff of a general nature,
even 20 per cent reduction on steel snd
iron, as we'll as 20 Per cent reduction on
raw sugar. In other words. Mr.. Teller
admits that no ruin would follow to the
beet or cane sugar industry if the cut
of 20 per cent proposed in the Cuban
reciprocity bill were made. He wants
the cut to be made in all the schedules.
If that is the view Of the beet sugar men,
they have all along been asserting what
sugar industry would suffer extinction
under the reciprocity bill. Mr.. Teller
thinks he is secure in asserting his will
ingness for a general revision Of the
tariff, believing that the interests which
enjoy excessive protection, far beyond
the protection needed urder a legitimate
tariff policy, will oppose with all their
might any proposition to effect general
tariff revision. ,tr:.s ~, -.-
The position taken by many opponents
of reciprocity who admit that the repub-
lican party is committed to the principle
by several unambiguouS declarations fa-
voring it, and has provided for negotia-
tions with foreign nations to effectuate
the policy, is that industries affected by
reciprocity concessions would regard their
interests as bartered away to give larger
markets to their neighbors in other in
dustries, and that 1t would be more
equable to have general tariff reduc-
tion, which would consider all interests.
Other opponents of reciprocity will not
listen to any proposition for general
tariff reduction and propose to fight
reciprocity and tariff revision unto the
: last ditch. They think that any reduction
which might be named is injurious. The
latter have been able to mako six
months fight against a reciprocity propo-
sition, which involves the keeping of a
national pledge of yielding to the Cubans
promote the commerce of the two coun-
tries with each other. This is lot credit
able to American craftsmanship. It Is
not in keeping with the spirit of progress
so characteristic OF our nation.
If the senate wants to do the right
thirg it win accept the challenge Of Sem
ator Teller, WHO speaking for the beet
sugar interest, said they were willing to
take the house bill with its 20 per cent
reduction and repeal Of the 'differential
duty on refined sugar.
AS to the general question of recip-
rocity or tariff revision, the time is ap-
preaching most surely, when the repub-
lican party will be obliged to take one
course or the other. McKtn1ey's pro-
phetic eye discerned this, and he an
nounced the fact in a public speech on
the day before his tragic end.

Captain Fitchette's> plea Of poverty is
both ridiculous and reprehensible. He
was certainly guilty Of contempt of court,
and had not Judge Simpson been hu-
.morist as well as a jurist the captain
might have: been given few days of en-
forced retirement. The captain pleaded
poverty because he did not wish to pay
an attorney to defend him in a suit
brought for political purposes. It is plain,
Of course. to all men of the Coffee John
kind that a suit brought to interfere with
traffic in police offices is for political
purposes. With slight qualification we
are willing to agree to this view. We
would make it for political publication

NUMBERING AND FORESTRY

Forestry as matter of private busi-
ness, as opposed to numbering. will not
be generally adopted In this country until
the original forests are practically de-
stroyed. Common numbering involves the
harvesting Of the tree. crop without any
thought for the future, without any care.
for reproduction. It is interested only in
present profits. Business forestry looks
to the present and to the, future 1t is
willing to sacrifice something In imme-,
date gains for the sake of having some
In the future.
Our 1umbermen have frequently been de-
nounced as ruthless vandals because they
have been SO unsparing in their work Of
destruction. Doubtless they have been
ruthless and certainly their methods, with
their scant regard for protection against
forest fires or for conserving the young
growth, have been vandalic. But while
they might and should have been more
careful in applying, their method OF lunn-
bering, the fact remains that for the lum-
herman of the past as we'll as Of the
present in Minnesota numbering is the
only sound policy. The time has not come
for forestry. As
We may and should have forestry by
the state that does not yield profit from
the timber actually marketed, but we cam
not expect private owners to practice
forestry when it's returns are small and
uncertain, whereas those from numbering
are large and certain. In q very conserve
tive article on American Private For
ests" in the July Harper's Monthly, Mr.,
oyerton W. Price, OF the United States
bureau of forestry, admits that such are
the facts. High taxes and the ever pres
emit danger Of fire make it sound business
policy, he says. for the owner of forests
to fell them. In Mpnesota our lumber
men might IN some. instances be willing
to take the fire risk il it were not for
high taxes, which manifestly operate to
cut down profits In proportion to the
length of time the forest is allowed to
stand. For this reason 1t has been strong

What the army has done in the Philippines
in the establishment OF sanitary measures for
checking the frightful mortality from small
pox and the bubonic plague can hardly fail
to mitigate the severity of the criticism that
has been heaped upon the army. OF course,
there has been much loss of life as a result
Of the war, but General Wheaton declares
that the mortality from that source seems
infnitesimal when one takes into considera-
tion the hundreds of thousands of lives that
have been saved by reason Of the sanitary

THE MASK Is Orr

AS much from confidence that the re-
public is mighty and would prevail as
from firm conviction that certain onin-
GUS signs were not indices OF the real ten
dency Of national development, we have
hitherto vigorously denied that there was
any departure in this country from the
ideals Of tho republican fathers. But, at
last, there has come a time when, we
must confess that our confidence was not
we'll founded. and that we are rapidly
drifting away from the old .moorings.
Plutocracy has dominated us, imperialism
IS coming upon us, aristocracy Is threat
,ening, individual freedom is disappearing,
and we expect daily to read in our paper
that Theodore l., emperor Of the United
States of America, Alaska. the islands of
the sea and American dominions beyond
the seas, has been crowned at Washing
ton after a swift coup d'etat.
The ones fact which tops the mountain
of accumulated evidences to this, level is
that sad news from Washington about
Senator Culbertson's constituent. This
constituent, an honest yeoman from the
Lone Star state, a horny handed son of
toll, a free American citizen, just as good
as anybody else, just as good as senators
or presidents, man who pays his bills
wherever he goes, sat down in the private
gallery of the senate to watch it perform.
Becoming tired OF the position in which
he first arranged his legs and pedal at
tachments he found It convenient to
change them and hang them over the
chair In front. Why shouldn't he? Did
it interfere with anybody, for this honest,
plain man from Texas to hang his feet
over an unoccupied chair? Is the sole Of
a plain No. II disgusting or offensive
thing for senators to see? Can not an
American citizen do what he pleases with
his own feet?- Il.
Alas, our countrymen, we fear he can
no longer. Once he could. If William
Jennings Bryan could have held back the
tide of onrushing Imperialism he might
still do so. But 1t is our painful duty
to record that our brother from Texas
was compelled to remove his feet from
their conspicuous position, and that by
h1reling funkey, too. If freedom shrieked
when Kosiuscko fell democracy roared
when those No. 12s came down. r #.

ly advocated that timber lands should
not be taxed SO long as there Is no income
from them-so long as the timber stands.
Advocates Of this idea would have taxes
levied on the timber whenever cut and
marketed. Such policy would certainly
put a premium on forest preservation. But
the fire danger will be always SO great
until the whole timber region is managed
on forestry principles that it is folly to
expect an individual lumberman to at
tempt to operate his forests by cutting
only the mature trees and exercising care
to protect the others. And SO long as the
demand for lumber Is so keen the tempta-
tion to cut every stick that can be made
into boards will be irresistible. But when
the pine has practically all been cut and
1t is found that there are large areas Of
land that are good for nothing but timber
raising, and the possible income from
capital has fallen to a point somewhat
below what 1t Is now. forestry will be
taken up as business. It will pay bet
ter than numbering and will therefore
supersede numbering. just as 1t has al
ready superseded it. in Germany and
France.
Indeed, the older parts Of our own coun-
try have reached that point. Applica-
tions are on file with the bureau of for
estry for plans for the forest management
of 100000 acres of land. Among these
applicants are number Of great consum-
!ers Of wood whe are trying to administer
their timber lands so that they may draw
from them perpetual supplies
If private owners of timber are remov-
ing forest growths which in being de-
stroyed injuriously affect other interests,
as those of distant farmers and naviga-
.tion, they are not to be blamed. They
are doing precisely what the farmers or
the steam boat men would do in their
places. The problem is one for the gov
ernment., That is why the government is
now reserving 4e,ooo,ooo acres OF forests
from which it gets little income. 1t can
and must look to the future and to- the
welfare >of other interests than those OF
returns from the forest; the private lum-
herman cannot do that. Therein lies com
plete justification Of such a congressional
undertaking as the creation of the Appa-
,lachian forest. 1t is justification of the
creation Of forest reserve around Leech
lake in this state. In both cases there
will probably be direct encouragement
to forestry on private lands adjoining gov.
ernment lands; through example and in
cidental protection.
