II transpires that certain Americans
have heavy interests in the Panama
project and others, thinking that the
treaty would be adopted have invested
heavily In lands along the Panama
route. These spectators have had
powerful lobby In Congress and would
like to see the United States protect
their interests by coercing q sovereign
state which within its rights has done
what It's Congress deemed best and
what many of its ablest citizens have
been long advocating in American and
native journals. 1t is this evil princi-
pie of coercion that all true Americans
should promptly sit down upon. Why
did we invite Colombia to Join IN a
treaty with MS in the first place II we

ed with trees How to induce Austria
to DO this is occupying the time and
attention Of the Emperor's advisers, If
Austria can be induced to see that the
cause Of the floods Is the cutting Of
timber upon the highlands Of her river
sources, no doubt an accommodation
win be readily reached.
But supposIng Austria does not &C.
cept the Prusslan view. what then2
She Is sovereign and not subject Must
a nation, like an individual be governed
by the rule, 80 use your own as not
to injure another" 1t would be most
interesting question for The Hague
court of arbitration TO decide.
This case emphasizes the importance
of timber In connection with floods and
water supply Scientists and experts
who have studied the question say
there Is very intimate relation be-
tween the two: that the destruction OF
timber hastens the melting of snow
and the evaporation and running of
water from the ground The cutting OF
the timber hastens the emptying OF the
reservoirs. The same principle may be
seen in the watering of garden.
Where nothing Is done to retain the
moisture in the ground il soon goes out,
but where brush or straw is placed
over the watered ground the moisture
Is retained for long time. The brush
and straw are forests In miniature.
That which has happened In SIlesla
through the destruction OF Austrian
timber happens every year in our own
country, but happily cause and effect
are all within our own boundaries.
The annual great Hoods In the
Ohio are undoubtedly largely due to
the destruction of the timber along
that river. The same Is true of the
Mississippi and Missouri And even
where there are torrential rains fol-
lowed by great floods, were there timber
In the section where they occur the
food danger would be infinitely less.
In our own State the danger from
floods Is very remote, but the danger
to the water supply through denuding
the hills and mountains Of timber Is very
great It should not be permitted but
the planting Of trees near the water
sources should be encouraged. The peo-
pie Of each settlement should look TO
would supplement their efforts.
In this arid country, life, animal and
vegetable is dependent upon the water
supply, and the latter very largely up
on the preservation Of timber in the
mountains.
Cutting down of the forests in the
Austrian uplands and the consequent
floods In Slesla furnish q lesson by
which America should profit.
