AMERICAN POLITICS.

Since the removal of the old hack
neyed subject of slavery, American
politics has become simply a matter
for the ups or the downs, the ms or
the outs, illustrated by the fable of
the bear and the fox.
\ certain fox suffering the pangs of
thirst discovers a well on the out
skirts of farm yard. From the shaft
and wheel above the we'll are suspend
ed two buckets; the one goes down
empty as the other is drawn up full.
After futile effort to work the mechan-
zeal problem. and the craving for WA
ter overcoming his judgment and eau
ton, he jumps into the upper bucket to
sip the few drops that remained from
the last draw: and, of course, the pre-
ponderance of weight carried him
speedily to the bottom, while the other
bucket went to the top. The predica-
ment is serious and his reflection ac-
tive. His solitude is disturbed by the
voice of an inquisitive bear, who. suf-
fering from thirst, wishes to know how
the fox was so fortunate as to get
within reach of the water. oh" said
the fox. Il am here also to avoid the
hunters hounds, who are tracking me
with great fury, and should they over
take you, the consequences are newt
able. Be advised in time and come
here in security. Just jump into the
bucket above and you will come down
gracefully and be enabled to Stake ypur
thirst and be secure from all danger
Into it he jumps and down he goes,
while the cunning fox in the other
bucket is drawn to the surface. Look
ing over the edge of the we'll at the
bear, he provokingly informs him that
this is nothing but a law of gravity.

SIMPLE LIVING.

| The man back east who explains how
exhibit a tempting menu, but he lays
claim to perfect health. His food is
the simplest and the nearest to nature
and he eats but little. After all, eating
| is the source of most the ills that flesh
| is heir to, and those who eat least, like
| the desert tribes, live the longest. The
| trouble is that eating has, in large
| measure, became a social rite. We eat
| in company and hence in courses; we
strive to excel others in the bounty of
the table or If not, to show that prodi-
gal feasting is at our command. Cen
orally one is sorry next day for the eX-
cess and seeks, by an infallible instinct,
to right the wrong done nature, by semi
fasting on plain and simple food. 1t
does not take long for the milk toast
and the soft-boiled eggs and the fruit
to put one right again. And they
would have kept one right from the
start.
The fifteen cent a day philosopher is
as much of an extremist in his way
as the gourmand is in his. Although
he has fine health he would be none
the worse for adding a few more sim
pie things to his menu and thus avoid
ing the peril of safety. But he strikes
many true notes, particularly in his
dissertation on corn meal as Il standby
and as compared with patented break
fast foods. His corn meal costs him
an eighth of a cent n pound and he
claims, we think justly, that he gets
more nutriment from it than he can
if unadulterated, has its full per-
centage of natural force; but the corn
and wheat from which breakfast foods
are made, have something taken away.
They are dessicated and devitalized.
Plain corn meal was the cereal food
of the most splendid races of Indians
on the North American continents and
ii was the staple, with potatoes, dairy
products and homemade wheaton
bread of the rugged New England
farmer. AS mush, fried or boiled, as
Indian pudding and in the form of
hot cakes, corn meal is worth all the
patented breakfast foods that ever be-
guiled the readers of magazine adver-
tisements, II one, for the sake of vari-
ETY. alternates it with rice-the chief
| food of the most tireless toilers in the
world-no other cereal is needed. The
two are incompatible in the places on
| ones menu which are now occupied by
the Almostfoods and NeXtocorns of the
roller mills.

PLANT TREES.

Early in the last century, some OF
the European powers saw the great
necessity of forests, and not only adj
vocated the preservation OF forest
trees. but established schools for in
structing persons in the work, so that
a knowledge of the trees best adapted
to certain localities and soil should be
available for the more rapid reproduc-
ton of what was being so recklessly
destroyed. Then the power of gov
eminent was applied to protect what
was necessary to the life of man in
sustaining climatic balance and Sc
curity from the terrible suffering
caused by lack of rainfall. Our Inn
preston is that this care Is still OBJ
served, its Importance having been
fully sustained. o."
One example of the destruction of
the forest trees is fully and fearfully
manifest in the once fertile island of
st. Thomas, now O, barren waste and
but little inhabited or cultivated. The
trees and shrubs once so dense and
vigorous were all cut for timber or
frewood Once the small streams had
been protected by the forest shade
at the same time every trunk and leaf
formed n natural lock for retarding
the rush of the current to the ocean,
so giving time for absorption and soil
nourishment. Now all Is changed and
a storm of heavy rainfall PUSHES down
the unobstructed course of the denud-
ed river banks and is soon lost in the
great ocean. So the fertile soil is
washed from the surface, and the ISL
and has become n comparatively un-
productive and abandoned country.
This same state of things Is going
on to far greater extent than is gen.
orally known or appreciated in our
own country, and may only be recog-
nlzed when 1t is too late. The object
of the present article is simply to sug-
gest once more the Importance of the
subject and to urge a fuller inquiry
into methods whereby the Government
may protect the remaining forests of
the country and replace those that
have been destroyed. Forest trees are
not grown in n season like crops of
grain or vegetables. and strong rea-
son should appear before single tree
Is cut down or destroyed The health
full effect of the atmosphere in and
around great forests is too well known
to need further comment, and the in
nuence of forests upon rainfall has
been conclusively proved on all parts
of the earth's surface.
With an expert forester engaged by
this Territory from the Federal SER
vice 20 superintend the conservation
and propagation of forests, we ought
to anticipate results of revolutionary
magnitude, even within the lifetime
of the majority now living, in the
increase of forest wealth upon these
islands. Trees grow with amazing
rapdity here, wherever given
species has congenial soil wherein to
take root.

CITIZEN SOLDIERY.

! The Importance of militia, compos-
| ed of citizens, in the United States,
can hardly be exaggerated. 1t is dis
tinctly in the interest of domestic peace
and furnishes a reservoir for the pro-
! duction of trained soldiers in case OF
war. 1t backs discipline with intel
| ligence and with patriotism and, when
necessity arises. stands for the equal
enforcement of the law. This country
needs only limited standing army.
for, as in the Civil War and in the
war with Spain, out of the militia and
volunteers, habituated to the restrained
use of arms, all the soldiers required
can be speedily drawn and an agrees
sive or defensive force modified.
The American militia has been noted
for it's intense devotion to the flag and
all it symbolizes. 1t represents neither
capital nor labor distinctively, but the
nation with it's institutions, its consti-
tuition and its laws. In Illinois, in
Pennsylvania, in Colorado, and In other
States and Territories. it has exhibited
it's moderation and its efficiency. In
the event of a foreign war or of in
ternal broils, neither of which is AZ
present threatened, the territorial mill
tia would be guarantee of protection
1t is we'll manned, well drilled and es-
sentially patriotic.

THE PANAMA CANAL.

The relations between the United
States and Colombia have been fully
ventilated, and now even the factious
minority in the Federal Senate appears
to have been driven into acquiescence
in the course pursued by the Admins
tration. An illuminating speech, how
ever lately made by Assistant Secre-
tary of State Loomis, before the Quill
Club of New York, conclusively proves
the degradation of the Colombian Con-
gress, by which the discarded treaty
was rejected, He shows that the CO.
lombian Government wanted delay, so
that the franchise to the French COM
pany for the construction of the canal
would lapse, and the forty millions TO
be paid for the work done be turned
into the Colombian treasury, An cleo
ton was ordered, in which the popu-
lation of Colombia was disfranchised
and the vote cast by the soldiers and
government employees, under the di-
rection of DR.. Marroquin, then the
president, who also controlled the
count. A unanimous vote on the
treaty, therefore, was easily secured,
and the opportunity furnished that
Panama quickly and effectually seized.
