The effect of wind upon trees IS pow
erful. Even the presence or absence
of forests may be determined by tie
character of the prevailing wind or the
conditions that modify it. The wind
acts as Il drying agent, giving a special
aspect TO many plants. When it is al
most always from the same quarter
the plants show greater development
upon one side. Trees are smaller on
the .windward edges OF forests. and
trunks and branches are bent to lee
ward. The determinations are most mark
ed near the sen or in fiat regions. The
cherry. plum, walnut, black poplar.
ash and certain pines are very sensi-
tive to the wind. but mountain pines
and certain frs offer great powers Of
resistance, and these are recommended
for .reforesting wind swept lands.

Dowie has done one thing anyway.
He has advertised. He has ranted and
rallied and acted in such a manner as
to call the attention of the newspa-
pers to what he was doing. He has
acted so strangely that the Chicago
newspapers gave him vast space day
after day. The New York newspapers
are now writing him up daily with
feature stories. Thus Dowie gets adj
vertisement. BY advertising he gets
the crowds. and after he gets the
crowds he guarantees to do the rest
Though This Elijah ii. is more of a

that advertising is necessary in any

Anxiety About Hanna.

When President Roosevelt wrote
that letter to Secretary Shaw approx
ing his intention to stump Ohio and
other states and cOngratulating him
upon having a chance to do your
share to secure not merely the tri-
umph. but the decisive and over
whelming triumph of Senator Hanna
and the cause which he represents, -
he took a great step backward
against the cause of the people. For
one who is supposed to be an ardent
civil service reformer, that was an
extraordinary and unusual promulga-
ton and might be taken as an invita-
ton for all government officials to
abandon their official duties-like
Secretary Shaw-and put their entire
efforts into effecting the triumph
of Hanna or any other republican
candidate. We are thus likely to see
in the coming campaign this fall and
in the coming presidential election
the very thing that the civil service
reformers are supposed to be opposed
to. the utmost political activity OF
federal pfficeholders.
But Hanna and 1.-THE cause which he
represents" what is it? He is openly
favoring the ship subsidy steal; and
President Roosevelt was supposed tc
be opposed to the iniquitous ano
wicked attempt to tax the people fol-
the benefit of the Morgan steamship
trust. Another cause which Hanna
represents in Ohio, and elsewhere foI
that matter, is the unequal taxation
of the railroads and other trusts anC
corporations, so that the farmers anC
other taxpayers have their property
real and personal. assessed at over CT
per cent of its value and the favored
corporations only pay from 10 to q
per cent. Does President Roosevelt
favor that unequal taxation?
Hanna is openly fighting reform Oh
the tariff and secretly opposing Gu
ban reciprocity. Is President Roose
Welt in accord with him on those
propositions? The cause that Hanna
represents includes many other iniqui
tous propositions. and his well-knowI
corruption of these voters. or legisla
tors that money will buy, to advance
his cause.is sonotorious thatlitwas sup
posed that President Roosevelt favor
ed more clearly political methods
Unfortunately, we have his writer
word for it that he is anxious ''for the
decisive and Overwhelming triumph
of Senator Hanna and the cause

\ farmer living in the town of Kin

means stop and the driver in future
will stop. He had warned the driver
several times to slow up as he pass
ed the farmers team. but the driver
kept on at top speed and the horses
bOlted. After experiences, in each of
which he narrowly escaped personal
injuries. the farmer sought legal adj
vice. He was advised to get a revol-
YER and lame the machine if the dri-
yer again refused to stop after being
warned. \ few days afterward the
farmer saw the machine approaching
and waved his arms at the driver to
stop. As on former occasions no
heed was paid to the sign. The farmer
took aim at the driving part of the
machine and the first shot stalled it.

admitted finally ne was in the wrong.
