THE STATE COLLEGE OF FORESTRY.

The trustees of Cornell University will have
TO decide at their meeting the 18th instant
whether or not they will continue for another
year the operation of the College of Forestry,
which was established by the New-York Legis-
latrre in 1897. and has been assisted by small
annual appropriations ever since. until the pres
ent year, when the appropriation of Slo,ooo
unanimously voted by the legislature was We
toed bv Governor Odell after the legislature had
adjourned.
II is not necessary to question here the wis
dom or motive Of the Governors action. The
general belief. which share. is that he did
not intend by this late and sudden executive
action. TO kill outright an institution which the
legislature had deliberately established and
unanimously supported. The provision OF our
present State Constitution which authorizes the
veto by the Governor. after the adjournment of
the legislature, of single items in appropriation
bills was earnestly opposed in the Constitu-
tionaI Convention as comforting upon the ex-
ecutive legislative authority. But this power
has usually been exercised with discretion ana
reserve and if Governor Odell has committed
an error in his veto Of a small appropriation, to
which the State was in some sense honorably
hound. for the support OF an institution which
If had created and never abolished the repairing
of that error at the next session would be cord
tally approved by him.
1t is generally understood that the motive OF
the Governors veto was his dlSapproVal oI Tue
management of the experiment in practical Tor
estrv conducted by the director OF the State Col
lere of Forestry on certain Adirondack iandS
Whether or not this experiment has been wisely
and successfully conducted thus far is matter OF
debate ONLY two remarks concerning 1t need
he made here: First that the legislature, after
fulI hearing of both sides by its committees,
unanimously voted the appropriation for the col
Iege, which the Governor subsequently VeIoeo'
second that the merits and results or the eA-
neriment referred TO, whatever they may De-
have no proper relation to the question OF the
continuance of the College OF Forestry as
school of instruction.
The legislature Of New-York established thls
college and it cannot be finally abolished eA-
cent bv legislative action. The choice presented
to the trustees of Cornell University is simply
this. Shall the operation Of the college be sus-
nended for the lack of $4,000, the students
sent home and the prestige already galheo
abandoned forever while the college still con-
Times 10 exist in name, by virtue OF the act Oh
the legislature, which only the legislature can
reneal or shall the trustees take the rlsk OF
going on for another year, until the VIII OF lhe
legislature shall be definitely declaredF In our
oninion. the risk in the latter course, whether
serious OF not is one which Cornell can aAoIu
to take. and probably ought TO take, even IL the
! State legislature should abolish the college OF

RUsso-AMERICAN FRIENDSHIP.

A oood s,geestion is made by Mr.. Syromiat-
pikoff the accomplished Editor OF the 'NoVoe
Vremya" of st. Petersburg, for the promotion oi
friendship between Russia and America. 1t Is
that the Russian Government should PUBLISH
in English. from official records history Of the
relations between the two countries; the e1-
pectation being Of course, that such publlca-
ton would demonstrate beyond all cavil the
traditional friendship of Russia for America.
That course would be in far better taste, and be
far more effective, than the conduct or the
.eNovoe Vremya," in railing at what 1t calls
Secretary Hays stubborn AnglophlilSm anu
in sneering at the American people as 'pollt-
calIv unripe" and without governmental IRA
ditions" not TO mention its positively offensive
suggestion that Russian diplomatic agents in
America should "'create a party IN American
politics favorable to Russia and use the Ameri-
can press for Russian ends. Such intrusion OF
alien influences into American politics was tried
something more than a hundred years ago by
Mr.. Genet. of France, with results scarcely en-
couraging to further attempts
The history proposed by Mr.. Syromatnikoff
would serve a valuable purpose, since 1t is
largely true, as he complains, that Ameri-
can school histories-we might add all other
histories. too-contain nothing about Russia's S
friendship for the United States at the founda-
tion of the Union. 1t is true that Empress
Catherine gave to Paul Jones the Order or
ST Anne after the battle Of Flamborough
Head But various other European countries
paid even higher tributes to him. Russia is not
known to have given this country any material
or moral aid during the Revolution On the
contrary II is related that she was most OF the
time coquetting with England with view to
an alliance with the latter. The general i'm
preston is that such All alliance would have
been formed IL England had been willing TO
eede Minorca to Russia. So intimate were the
relations between the two countries that George
III applied to Russia for hireling troops to pit
against the Americans before he sought them
in Hesse; and though Catherine declined to
furnish them she did so not On the ground Of
any sympathy with America, but simply be-
cause she thought it would be undignifed for
two great powers to combine for the suppress
sion of so weak and contemplate an insurrec-
tion-'a rebellion which is not supported by any

her the price she wanted for an alliance Cath
crime issued her famous declaration that free
ships make free goods" and presently put Rus

urgent initiative OF France, Denmark and other
powers. and that the doctrine she then enunci-

SOME TURF INCIDENTS.

The most popular and best known race in
America-the Suburban-will be decided on the
attractive grounds of the Coney Island Jockey
Club, at Sheepshead Bay, on Thursday, June
Is. Among the celebrated turf contests in the
United States there is only one which COM
pares with the Suburban in respect to the talk
it causes and the interest it excites, and that
is the American Derby, which will be seen at
Washington Park in Chicago, two days later.
The principal city of the West is highly i'm
portant centre Of racing, being only second to
New-York on this continent in that absorbing
amusement; but, as this metropolis surpasses
the enterprisng Babylon of Illinois in popula-
ton and in resources, in wealth and In cosmo-
politanism. so it is in advance of Chicago In
variety and abundance of thoroughbred tourna-
ments of genuine quality and merit.
There is no intention in this article to dis
parage In the least Chcagos American Derby.
1t is always worth seeing, and always a battle
of strong field Of feet runners for a rich and
notable prize. But the Suburban, although a
handicap, indisputably holds the lead season
after season. This has been a boom" spring
and summer on the tracks to an extent not
eutalled before. On almost every day since
January l. except on Sundays the jockeys have
been in the saddles in the view OF hiizzaing
legions of spectators in one State or another,
and. as a rule, on several courses In various
