THERE is considerable being
said in the press of the state re
garding the successorship of
Senetor Quarles. tits evident
that the latter cannot secure re
election at the hands of the COM
ming legislature. At first it is
quite generally supposed Govern
or LaFollette would want the
place, but his intimate political
associates declare that he will not
be candidate. A. r. Hall, W.
d. Connor, Congressman Cooper.
Isaac Stephenson, and a number
of other gentlemen are mentioned
as possible candidates. THE
TIMES believes that A. r. Hall is
responsible for what good things
Governor La Toilette has cham
pioned before the people of the
state, and we further believe
that Mr.. Hall has never had any
thing to do with any of the Gov
ernors practices and measures
which have been open tocriticism
and censure. A prominent re-
publican recently said that Hall
taught Governor LaFollete every
thing the latter ever knew. One
thing is certain, and that is that
Mr.. Hall started going nearly
every measure for which the
people of Wisconsin are now
clamoring. He has always been
fair with the railroads, but has
insisted that they deal squarely
with the people. AS leader of
the legislature for many years
Mr.. Hall was a gigantic success.
He has ever been man of the
people, big in hisid andhonest
in all he has ever done. 1t would
be hard to find better man in
Wisconsin to send to the United
States senate.

The Christmas Delinator.

The December Delinator, with its
message of good cheer and helpful
ness, will be welcomed ia every
home. The fashion rages are un-
usually attractive, illustrating and
describing the very --latest modes in
way to make their construction
du ring the busy festive season a
pleasure instead of task, and the
literary and pictorial features are of
rare excellence. A selection of
Love Songs from the Wagner Operas,
rendered into English by Richard
de Galliennend beautifully illus
trated in colors by J. c. Leyendeck-
err, occupies a prominent place, and
a chapter in the Composers Series,
relating the Romance of Wagner
and Cosima. is an interesting supple
ment to the lyrics. A very clever
paper entitled "The Court circles of
the Republic. describes some unique
phases of Washington social life is
from and unnamed contributor. who
is said to wri from the inner circles
of society. There are short stories
from the pens Of F. Hopkinson
Smith Robert Grant, Alice Brown,
Mary Stewart Cutting and Elmore
Elliott Peake. and such interesting
writer's as Julia Magruder, T.. Frau k
Baum, and Grace MCGOWAN Cooke
hold the attent ton OF the children.
Many Christmas suggestions are
given in needlework and the cookery
pages are redolent of the Christmas
feast. In addition, there are regu-
lar departments Of the magazine,
with many special articles on topics
relating to woman's interests with n
and without the home.

will continue as secretary of state
up to the 4th of March, 1909"
The president was asked re-
garding other possible cabinet
changes, but indicated there was
nothing to be said at present.
Mr.. Hays succession to the
same department portfolio fixes
the most important place in the
new cabinet and is the first step
so far taken in that direction.

HEARST and Bryan have start

party along what theycall "sane'
lines. The conservative, or Wall
street democracy, as represented
by the Parker faction, will dou bt-
less soon discover that the plan
of the two reorganizers' is not
what is claimed for it. but will be
heard proclaiming the new plan
''insane. There is likely to be
four years of continuous warfare
in the democratic party, which
will likely disrupt it and putt

the regular technical methods. :"
The prime object of Commits
sioner Goto's visit to this point
is to be found in his last sentence
which points to the necessity of
striving to develop to the full the
natural capabilities of the forests
by increasing their productive
pc wers by the application of
regular technical methods. Or
in other words there is to be no
more primitive logging in Japan,
and Com missioner Goto Is
arged with introducing the
most modern methods.
Commissioner Goto says they
have class of tim Der very sim
liar to that found in this vicinity,
the pine being their principal
forest product. Logging is in
it's infancy, but with the govern
ment CONTROL that is exercised
over operations and the appliance
of the approved American
methods he will introduce on his
return home there is bound to
be a great movement in ,um Der
ing in the Empire.
The planting of forests IN the
cut.over districts of Japan has
been given much attention and is
encouraged. The government
makes arrangements with log,
gers to give them a certain per-
percentage of the profits result
ing from the replanting, and it is
hoped that in this way that the
japanese forests may be made
perpetual. In this the yellow
race have certainly taken long
steps in advance of America,
which has been the great logging
country of the world.
The government of Japan has
four forest com missioners, of
whom Goto is the chief. They
are under the Minister of Agri-
culture, who occupies a position
similar toa cabinet officer in this
country. These officers super
wise not only the government
holdings, but have control over
all private forests. What they
say goes in Japan, where men
are not quite ''as free and equal"
as in this country. Goto is q
quiet little man, but one can see
at a glance that he has a power
of force and intelligence within
him. The people with whom he
came in contact here say he can
ask as many questions as any
four ordinary men, and the best
of it is that nearly all of his
queries are directly TO the point.
