Impressive Illustrations Of the reckless
destruction OF the woodlands OF the United
States are frequently forced upon our
attention. In spite OF all the efforts OF the
national and state governments, the in
nuence OF the more thoughtful newspa-
pers. the colleges. societies and organiza-
lions for the protection OF trees and for
tree planting this deplorable waste con-
tinues. and each year leaves it's track Of
desolation In every part OF this fair land.
The geological survey has recently is
sued a report upon the deforestation OF
the state Of Washington which has in
late years been carried to a shocking
extent.
This report. which was prepared with
great care by Mr.. Henry Gannett. is
attracting much attention. II shows that
In nineteen counties In Washington west
Of the Cascade range 1854 square miles
were formerly covered with merchantable
timber. OF which Il per cent has been cut,
II per cent has been destroyed by fire,
and the remainder is still covered with
standing timber. In Mr.. Gannett's own
words: In less than a generation nearly
one-third of the timber In one of the
has been destroyed, and Of that destruc-
ton much more than half has been caused
by fire." In other words, nearly two
years supply OF timber. worth in money
about 100000 has been destroyed by
FIRE.
Sad as these statements are. II must be
remembered that the report in which
they were found was made before the re-
cent terribly destructive forest fires in
Washington. Oregon. Wyoming and COL
orado, so that an even more mournfuI
story could be told now than was posi-
bic a year or two ago concerning that
region.
The department of agriculture estimates
that every year in the states named fully
ten millions Of acres are burned over
s25.oCo.000 worth OF real property anu $780,
$4,000 worth Of young trees.
The full extent of the forest destruc-
ton that has occurred in these states will
never be known until the bureau OF forest
~ has completed its report.
II Is safe, however, TO say that in the
region referred 70 more damage has been
done TO the forest in the past year than
can be repaired in a century, II full rep
aration Of It can ever pe accomplished.
The northwest has suffered more Sc
verely from deforestation than any other
part OF the country, but no section OF it,
hardly one state OF all the IS. has escaped
enormous Losses Of this character.
Public sentiment is setting in the d.
rection Of better provision for the pro-
tecIion OF our woodlands and the planting
OF trees on a large scale and on scientific
plans.
There is, therefore, hope that the waste
fulness and folly from which our land
has suffered so terribly and in so many
ways VIII soon be perceptibly checked and
the work OF repairing the wrecks that
we have wrought OF permitted in our
forests viii be carried bravely forward.

AN OPTIMISTIC DOCTOR.

The progress Of medical science has
been truly wonderful in this generation,
but we fear II has not yet gone quite as
far as DR.. John A. wyeth, OF New York,
would have US believe.
This eminent physician has just come
home from Europe 20 bring US the glad
news that Professor John Weleh, of
Johns Hopkins University has discovered
a virus that viii prevent, or cure, all dis
eases TO which man is subject
DR.. wyeth'F enthusiasm over the mat
ter indicates that he Is thoroughly con-
WINGED that this universal cure will do all
that Is claimed for II.
He will, Of course, find the average man
very skeptical. but the light OF new
found truth always has dawned slowly
upon ordinary human comprehension and,
probably. always will.
DR.. Wyeth, however, gives the world
the assurance that since Professor welch
has made his great discovery "all a man
win have to do will be TO get inoculated
and he will never catch anything"
How happy We would all be IL we could
believe thisl
our reach and we might all drink at the
fountain Of perpetual youth which philos-
ophers for many centuries have striven in
vain to find and which has been the dear
est desire Of pretty women ever since the
lookingglass was invented.
Our men Of medical science have been
discovering and inventing anti-toxin for
special purposes until the number of such
agents has reached III, but Professor
Welch has distanced all these benefactors
OF the human race by producing an anti
toxin that contains the virtues OF all the
others, and more too.
Now, what will we not be ready to. do
for Professor Welch as the discoverer and
DR.. Wyeth as the proclaimer OF this grand
benefaction to suffering mankind IL il
viii only pan out?'
We await further developments

STAHL TALKS INTERESTINGLY
OF SOUTHERN PROGRESS

Hon. John NJ. Stahl for the past ten
years secretary OF the Farmers National
congress, which held it's annual meeting al
Macon from the 7th to the 14th of this
month, was in the city Saturday on his
way to his home in Chicago. he was the
guest of Mr.. X. M. Turner, who is an old
friend. To a Journal reporter he said:
1.-THE Ueeting at Macon was one OF the
four most successful, II not the most sue
cessful, in the history Of the congress
More than 500 delegates, appointed by the
governors of "a states, were in attendance
The papers and addresses were ali of the
highest order. The delegates were broad
minded men, and were all ready to subor-
dinate the interest of sections or local
tiles to the general good Of the agricul-
tural interest of the entire country. The
meeting emphasized that there is no
longer the least line of cleavage between
the farmers of the country because of the
events of 1S60-65. Southern and northern
delegates WED with each other in express
sions of love and loyalty to our glorious
union Of states. One of the features of our
meeting never 70 be forgotten was the
singing of patriotic songs at one OF the
sessions by the children of the orphans
home at Macon. That alone would have
paid me for the trip from Chicago to
Macon.
Macon certainly did all that could be
done to make our meeting pleasant. It re-
deemed every promise made to the con-
gress, and much more. Credit for this is
very largely due to Colonel George A
Smith, the president Of the Macon board
of trade. He was tireless. Eight hundred
delegates left Macon with grateful hearts
and for years will speak often and warmly
in praise OF that city. We are particularly
grateful for the many courtesies shown
our wives and daughters. Many names
should be mentioned in this connection,
but l know the demands on your space
and will only mention Mrs. Wilnngham
and the faculty OF the female college.
About $50 ladies accompanied the dele
gates.
cat the close of our business session
the Georgia Southern and Florida railroad
put special train at our disposal and we
were taken on a most delightful trip to
Palatka, Fla. Particular mention should
be made of Valdosta, where we stopped
for dinner on our going trip, and of White
Sulphur Springs, where we stopped for
dinner on our return, but at every place
where we stopped we were shown every
possible courtesy and kindness. Last SUM-
day we spent at st. Augustine. There

States. In behalf of the unhappy inhabi-
tants OF that island this nation made war
with a power that had immemorially been
a friend OF the United States. To rescue
Cuba from tyranny, our government spent
millions of money and sacrificed thou
lands OF lives. At the close Of the conflict,
we healed Cuba's sick and wounded, fed
Cuba's furnishing children, Sheltered Gu
ba's houseless, clothed her naked and Wis
tied her widowed and fatherless. We made
life healthier and property safer in every
town in the island; and after we had done
all this-after we had lifted the stricken
Cubans to their feet and set them upon
the highway OF Republican government
we presented TO them the freedom pur-
chased for them by the blood and treasure
OF Americans-and then we withdrew from
the island.
I'm return for these, our acts of human
ity, the Cubans now insult Americans IN
the streets OF Havana, rob them by day
and waylay and murder them by night.
Even the memory of brave American sail
ors who sleep their last sleep in the har-
Dor of Havana-beneath the waters that
envelop the Maine-cannot deter these
bloodthirsty ingrates from insult, theft,
persecution and assassination"
It would seen that when General Bragg,
late United States consul general at Ha-
vana in a letter TO his wife characterized
the Cubans in a manner that caused his
transfer TO a post Of duty in China, he
did them no injustice. The concurrence
Of testimony to the effect that the aver
age Cuban is a very shabby fellow is Won
derfully strong.

\ OUR military VISITORS. J
BY MAJ. J. Il. cELEF.


The nresence in Atlanta of the Seventh
cavalry and the Third battery brings 10
mind so much connected with my own
military career that have consented 10
Den a few lines concerning them. De-
pan NV army life with the battery ana
fortuitous circumstances kept me from
the massacre of Little Big Horn where
IL might have ended with Clusters
The Third battery, a platoon OF which is
,o1y here under command of Lieutenant
Nones. was. before the reorganization OF
the army, Light battery A, Second artl-
Ierv which / Joined in 1862 as a second
lieutenant. 1t was then horse battery
serving with the cavalry. On July !, 1885,
7 commanded it as 1t fired the opening
gun at Gettysburg.
It has had a remarkable history. Be
ginning with Resaca, where it opened the
first battle of the Mexican war, it was
its fate to be the first at Gaines Mill,
Antietam. Gettysburg and the second Cold
Harbor. Thirty-five years after Gettys-
burg, to the hour and minute, on July
/. 1898 IL fred the first gun in the Spanish
American war at Santiago. 1t was then
commanded by Captain Grimes. In the
civil war It was known as TidbalFs bat
terry. After the second battle OF Cold
Harbor MAY, 1850 it was attached to
Clusters division. Its new captain IS
Georgia boy, the SoluleTiy OdPldlh Ell
D. Hoyle, under whom it will lose none OF
its prestige.
with regard to the Seventh cavalry 1
accepted a captaincy in the regiment in
June, 1867, by telegram, and was very
glad I was to ride with Custer, who was
associated three years with me at West
Point, Keough and a lot Of other good
cavalrymen, but a telegram from the war
department informed me that 1t was the
Tenth cavalry-"Buffalo" soldiers. as the
Indians call negro soldiers. AS my &C
ouaintance did not extend to the tawny

desire for the Seventh my bones very
probably would be reposing with poor

TOUGH CITIZENS.

For years during the occupation Of Cuba
by Spain and up to the end OF the war
of which the United States fought
for the liberation of that island with
contempubly little aid from the Gu
bans themselves, we had been pouring out
sympathy and praise upon that people.
We continued 10 do so until better &C
ousintance forced us TO the conclusion
that we have really been making fools Of
ourselves In this matter.
We have found TO our disgust that the
Cuban OF our imagination and the Cuban
OF our actual experience are very different
creatures. There is in the real article very
little TO inspire respect and very much to
arouse contempt and indignation.
A special correspondent who is familiar
with Cuba and her people. and who has
kept closely up with the current of events
there since the people were liberated, has
recently written some impressive letters
to The New Orleans Times-Democrat.
II this writer has come anywhere near
the truth the average Cuban is about as
tough a specimen as can be raked up any
where.
The Times-Democrat has full faith in
the correspondent who gives these dis
graceful reports OF the conduct OF our
unexpected wards. and II bases upon
these statements the following uenuncia-
lion Of the ingrates:
Rights OF American citizens at Havana
rights OF life and rights OF property
have been and are still, according to these
dispatches, ruthlessly violated. Methods
OF Csstilian cruelty and expedients OF
Spanish persecution have been invoked
to get rid Of Americans who live in the
island. Citizens of the United States are
assaulted. robbed, imprisoned and murder
ed TO satisfy the vindictive whim of these
Ingrateful Cubans.
when we say 'ungratefur we use Ine
word adyisedly. Never in the history of
the world has there been a case where a
people have been treated so justly, so
generously. so magnanimously as these
Cubans have been treated by the United
Atlanta semi-weekly journal. (Atlanta, Ga.) 1898-1920, 1902-10-23
OUR NEW RATTLEsHIPs.

The rapidity with which our government
has gotten unto itself a great navy from
a very small and ineffective one a few
years ago is the wonder and admiration
of the civilized world.
And the work of increasing this navy
is being carried forward at even a more
rapid rate than 1t has hitherto proceeded.
1t has been but few months since con-
gress authorized two immense and very
powerful battleships which will excel the
mightiest one we have now, and yet these
gigantic machines are already well in
hand. One of these battleships will be
built at the Brooklyn navy yard by the
force employed there, while the other has
been let to the Newport News Shipping
company.
There will be a sharp and interesting
competition between the navy-yard build
ing the Connecticut and the private ship
yard building the Louisiana. These ves-
sells are to be constructed on identical
plans furnished by the navy department,
and it will be possible for the government
to compare the cost and the quality of the
work in a way that will be of great value
to it.
It is said. and has long been a mooted
question whether it is wiser tor the gov
eminent to build the vessels of its own
navy, or to employ private enterprises
to do so. The best chance to reach safe
conclusions on that question that has
ever been presented is now being afforded.
The officers of the navy who will have
supervision of the work at the Brooklyn
navy yard are opposed to the construc-
ton of vessels for the navy in the navy
yards. This prejudice may have no little
effect upon the reports Of these officers
on the work mat has been turned over
to them.
The Louisiana and the Connecticut will
be much larger than any battleship we
now have and will probably have no su-
periors in any navy. Each of lem will
have a displacement of 5000 tons, or
about half again as much as the Oregon.
Their batteries will be equalled by very
few now aioat, and in some respects
will have decided advantages over the best
of those already mounted.
The British battleships of 1900 tons now
in service have batteries clearly interiors
to those that will be provided for the
Louisiana and the Connecticut.
The completion of these two vessels will
place the United States navy distinctly
ahead of any other except that of Great
Britain in heavy battleships.
These terrors of the sea that are to fly
the stars and stripes will be completed in
about three years, a remarkably short
time for such an achievement.
