perslstently under this beneficent law,
we may confidently expect the largest

IMPORTANCE OF FORESTRY.
THE irrigation development of the
arid west cannot stand alone. For
estry Is the companion and support
of irrigation. Without forestry irrga-
ton must fall. Permanent irrigation
development and forest destruction
cannot exist together. Never forget
that the forest reserve policy of the
national government means the use of
all the resources Of the forest reserves.
There is little profit In destruction COM
pared with use. The settlement of the
great arid west by the makers of
homes is the central object, both Of the
irrigation and the forest policy OF the
United States. in forestry, as In irri-
cation the immediate privat interests
of some individual must occasionally
yield to their permanent advantage.
which is the public good The bene-
fits Of forestry are not only for the
future but for the present The for
est reserves are for all the people,
but first for the people in the immedi-
ate neighborhood for whom supplies
OF wood and water are among the
first necessaries OF life. With the
wiser and more skilful management OF
the reserves by trained men the great
or obviously will their usefulness be to
the public. We must never allow our
chagrin at temporary defeat and diff
culties In the management OF the forest
reserves 10 blind us to the absolute
necessity OF these reserves to the peo-
pie Of the west. Support of the forest
reserve policy has grown with wonder
full rapidty In the west during the last
few years. 1t Will continue to grow
TIL the last vestlge of opposition now
almost gone, has wholly disappeared
before the understanding OF the object
and the effect OF the reservation. The
greater the support of the forest re-
serve by the people OF the west the
greater the assurance that the national
irrigation policy will not fail. for the
preservation of the forests is vital to
the success of this policy.

TRADE SITUATION IS QUIET
Signs Which Are Really Encourag-
ing Are Visible, However.
Readjustment Create Ten
dency TO Repression.

New York, Nov. 16.-Bradstreet's
says: "Quietness and even repression
govern general trade and industry, but
prevailing pessimism cannot hide the
fact that some really encouraging signs
are visible. Taken as whole. general
business this week is rather larger, due
to the expansion in retail trade at the
northwest, where it is favored by
cooler, settled weather, and at the
south, where an enormous quantity of
cotton is being marketed at excellent
prices. Wholesale trade is still quiet
as a whole, awaiting developments in
price and demand. Export trade seems
to be at last expanding. Exports of
leading products aggregate the second
largest total ever recorded in October.
Chief among the depressing features
brought to light this week are the re-
ports that finished steel products have
I been cut, that wages of iron and steel
and cotton mill employees must come
! down, and that some new strikes, nota-
bly, general shutdown of Colorado
coal mines, are menacing far western
manufacturing and railway activity.
On the other hand, the fact might just
as well be faced that high prices have
checked demand, that manufacturers of
iron and steel believe that the demand
can be revived if price concessions are
made, and that the wage reductions are
calculated to render this policy more
effectual, Notwithstanding that de-

R. G. Dun & Co.'s weekly review Of
trade says: REIMBURSEMENT of wages
and abnormaly warm weather are not
calculated to stimulate distribution of
merchandise. especially wearing ap-
parel and fuel. Several other staple
lines are quiet, as is usual at this sea-
son, yet the splendid profits of agri-
cultural communities cannot fail to put
large sums of money in circulation and
provide a market for commodities.
Prices of all staples were slightly
higher on November / than a month
previous, but in the past two weeks
the level has fallen somewhat. Settle
ments of labor disputes in meat pack
ing, lithographing and several minor in
, dustries are Offset by new struggles in
the building trades, street car lines and
coal mines, while the cut in wages of
iron workers and spinners may result
in strikes.
Failures this week numbered 283 in
the United States, against 241 last
year, and % in Canada, compared with
"a year ago."

CREW is ENUMERATED.
Chief Train Dispatcher Byers Held
Responsible for Wreck of Pur-
due Football Special.

indianapolis, Ind, Nov. 16.-Coroner
Tutewiler rendered his verdict Satur-
day on the Big Four wreck which oc-
Cured in this city October 81. The
coroner blames B. G. Byers, the chief
train dispatcher at Kankakee, who, he
says, failed to notify the Indianapolis
yardmaster that the special train was
coming. Sixteen people were killed in
the wreck, Is Of whom were Purdue
students.
The train was carrying 1000 passen-
gers from Lafayette, where Purdue uni
versity is located. to witness the annual
football game between Purdue and In
diana university in this city. AS the
train was rounding curve 1t crashed
into a cut of coal cars outward bound.
The verdict exonerates the crew Of the
special train. The judgment of the
Big Four officials was that this crew
was responsible for the wreck because
the train was not under control,

IMPORTANT DISCOVERY.
Hitherto Unknown Sayings Of Christ
Are Unearthed in Egypt by
ArchaeoloEists.

London, Nov. 16.-Many hitherto un-
known sayings Of Jesus have been dis
covered in Egypt by archaeologists,
who have dug up papyri buried since
the second century, 100 miles south Of
Cairo
DR.. Bernard P. Grenfell, who has
been engaged in Egyptian excavations
since 1894, at the general meeting Of the
Egypt exploration fund here Friday
gave the following details:
Accompanied by DR.. Hunt, DR.. Gren-
fell found rich Ptolemaic metropolis
at El-Hibeh The bulk Of documents
from one mound consisted of collec-
ton of sayings of Jesus They are all
introduced with the words: Jesus
saith" and for the most part are new.
The ends of the lines, unfortunately,
are often obliterated. Apparently all
the sayings were addressed to st. Thorn
as. One of the most remarkable is:
LET not him that seeketh cease from
his search until he find, and when he
finds he shall wonder; wondering he
shall reach the Kingdom; i. e., the
Kingdom of Heaven, and when he
reaches the Kingdom he shall have
rest"
Dr. Grenfell remarked that enormous
interest would be aroused by the discov-
cries, on account of the variations they
disclosed from accepted texts. One
variant of the mystical saying, record
ed in st. Luke, "The kingdom of God
is within you," was of great value as
the saying in the papyrus appeared in
quite different surroundings from those
attributed to 1t by the evangelist and
extended far into another region.
According to DR.. Grenfell, these say
ings formed the new gospel which is
traditionally associated with St.

Paris, Nov. 16.-Of1cial advices show
there is a distinct improvement in the
Russo-Japanese situation. 1t is UNDER
stood that the recent prolonged indie
cision was due to forwarding reports Of
the negotiations for the personal in
spection Of the car.
Japan Not Satisfied.
Picking, Nov. 16.-It was learned Sat-
urday from trustworthy source that
Japan is dissatisfied with the progress
of the negotiations between that coun-
try and Russia. The Japanese parlia-
ment meets December 5, and the gov
eminent Of Japan desires to be able to
report that it has reached an agree
ment with Russia, as otherwise the OPP
position party is certain to attack the
ministry, violently demand war with
Russia and perhaps inflame public
sentiment to the war point. 1t is point
ed out that the negotiations have
dragged recently, especially while the
car and his foreign minister, Count
Lamsdorff, were absent from Russia,
Baron De Rosen, the Russian minister
at Toxic, representing that nothing
definite could be arranged while they
were away. The Japanese claim that
the Russian tactics have been dilatory
throughout. They point out that Japan
first preached the subject of the Nam
churian convention and that, when
Russia did not fulfill her pledge to evac-
uate the second province of Manchuria,
Russia suggested that the negotiations
be deferred until M. Lessar, the Russian
minister to China. who was on leave
Of absence, returned to Picking. Then
Japan renewed her overtures and Rus
STA proposed further delay until the
Russian war minister, Gen. Kuropta-
kin, had returned from his visit to
Japan. The Japanese, consequently, ex-
press the opinion that the object OF
Russian policy has been to gain time
to reinforce the army and navy of Rus
STA in the far east so that she might be
prepared for a possible war.

colleges as named. One was the Iowa
