WASTE OF CANADIAN FORESTS.
Is Beginning to Be Apparent
in the Dominion,

Any one who has travelled through
the forest districts of Canada, east or
west, has seen sufficient evidence of the
destruction that has been caused, says
the Montreal Family Herald. Wherever
civilization has penetrated the forest
has suffered needlessly, wantonly, use
lessly. Along the lines of railway, the
routes Of travel, and in the path of ad
Vancing settlement, the way is marked
by burnt and tangled woods, by waste
Of bare rock or grim standing bare
above a mass Of tangled shrubs and bri-
ers. Canada is proud of the work Of her
pioneers who, out of the gloomy woods
ard painless forests created peaceful
farms and happy homes, but the results
of advancing civilization in our woods
for the last quarter of a century have
been such as to cause little pride to any
true citizen of the dominion. 1t is
rather humiliating to read the state
ment by distinguished European forest
erS, and one which is almost invariably
made in attempting to estimate the
future timber SIMPLY IF the world,
that Canada is one Of the coun-
tries blessed with the greatest ma
tional resources in this respect, but
so little care is taken of them that
they can hardly be counted on to be a
great or lasting feature in the supply.
The Creator has been bountiful, the
Canadian has been a child, knowing no
tomorrow and wasting what it cannot
use
The past year in eastern Canada has
been disastrous one from loss by fire.
Under favorable circumstances a few
great fires might sweep bare our few re-
naming great lumber districts and re-
duce them to a desolate waste for gen
erations to come. The destruction has
gone far enough. A true patriotism, a
true appreciation CT that upon which de-
Ponds the nations prosperity and well
fare should demand that the necessary
preventive measures be taken.
And, given protection and time suffi-
cient, the question Of reforestation will
largely solve itself, for the trees will
grow if only they are allowed to do so,
though the process may be fastened By
judicioUs management Of natural re-
seeding, or even by replanting when the
expense Of such artificial means is war
wanted.
The province of Quebec has appointed
commission to inquire into this and
other subjects, and it is to be hoped that
they will deal with it in an energetic
and com nrahe0Sive manner In q nrOy-
ince so greatly dependent on therevenue
from timber, the interest in it should
be practical and direct.

ALL HOPE ABANDONED.
Death Of Senator Hanna a Cues
ton Of Time.
Another Sudden, Unexp ected Change
in His Condition for the Worse
Took Place Sunday Morning
Kept Alive on Stimulants.

Washington, Feb. Ex-senator Han
mas condition at a. m Monday was
critical in the extreme. He was slow
ly sinking, but on giving him injections
of brandy he revived slightly.
Washington, Feb 15.-Sunday was
regarded as the crucial day in Sena-
tor Hannas heroic battle for life. It
began with assurances of quite an op-
timistic character. The first news of
the day from the sick room was an
nounced shortly after Z o'clock a. nj.
The senator, the doctors said, had
passed a perfectly quiet night. His
temperature at O'Clock was 1898,
pulse 12O and was strong and regular,
and his respiration was declared to be
satisfactory, although no figure was
given.
At intervals of two hours during the
night Senator Hanna had been arous-
ed and given nourishment, after which
he Immediately would resume his
sleep. The doctors supplemented this
announcement with the statement that
the condition of the senator at this
time surpassed all their expectations.
This statement hardly had been is
sued when an unexpected change for
the worse took place. DR.. Osler had
gone to Mr.. Hanna's room and DR..
Carter and Secretary Elmer Dover
had stepped down to the dining room
for breakfast. DR.. Rixey had not ar
rived, and the senator was alone with
his nurses. Suddenly he became no.
ticeably weaker. His rapid breathing
excited alarm, and other signs Of dis
tress caused a hurried summons for
both physicians. On their almost in
slant arrival his pulse was beating at
the alarming rate Of 1877 and his res
piration was above 40. The oxygen
apparatus was put into use immedi-
ately, the breathing cone was placed
over the senator's nostrils and relief
secured.
The s o'clock bulletin Sunday even
ing showed no improvement in the
senator's condition. Some milk and
whisky were administered at $50
o'clock and shortly thereafter the pa
tient was given another bath, but it
caused no reduction in the tempera-
ture For an hour after the bath Sen
ator Hanna dosed and was resting COM
fortably. More nourishment was CIV
en- at o'clock. Throughout the even
ing the doctors gave oxygen for a cou-
pie Of minutes at intervals of half an
hour
DR. Osler retired for the night i'm
mediately after issuing the II o'clock
bulletin, saying that he did not antici-
pate any immediate change.
All hope Of Senator Hanna's recov-
cry has gone. Mr.. Dover has just stat
ed that there is no chance for
life. ut is just matter of temporary
improvement" he said. The doctors,
however, are not preparing for imme-
diate dissolution.
Washington, Feb. Ex-senator Han
ma has had another sinking spell early
Monday morning. DR.. Osler was call
ed from his bed and DR.. Carter worked
laboriously over the patient. AS a re-
suit there has been a complete reac-
ton although the senator has been
left much weaker. DR.. Osler returned
to his bed with instructions TO be call
ed should another spell be imminent.

LOOKS FOX DEFEAT Of RUSSIANS

That the Japanese will be successful
in their fight with Russia is the opin-
ion Of Professor James Main Dixon
president of the Columbia college al
Milton, Or. Professor Dixon was q
resident of Japan for 13 years and his
opinion of the ability Of the Japs ia
defeat the Russians is based on his
personal knowledge of what he Yam
KEGS of the Orient are capable of doing
Professor Dixon Is in the city re-
ceiving treatment. at ST. Mary's hos
pital, having come to Walla Walla
several days ago from Milton. He
was employed as instructor at the Inn
perial university at Toxic for Is years.
While engaged in the work of teaching
in the islands he made many warm
personal friends among the leading
statesmen of the country, and was
quite favorite with the emperor.
General Oyama, commander in chief
Of the Japanese land forces, and Adj
miral Uriu, of the navy, were number
ed, among his personal associates, the
former being his next door neighbor.
In speaking of the war this morning
Professor Dixon said: Il am conf
dept that the Japanese will be sue
cessful in this war. The army and
navy is composed in a large part of
well educated young japanese. many
of the sons of the nobility of the coun-
try are enlisted In the two branches
of the service. and they have made a
close study of the science of war. The
officers are we'll schooled. many Of
them being graduates of the large
colleges of America and European
countries. The enlisted men Of the
army and navy are we'll drilled and
splendidly disciplined, and are all
noted for their bravery.
"They are to some extent deficient
in craftsmanship, but in that respect
they are equal to the Russian soldiers.
There is one thing, however, that they
do excel the Russians in, and that is
a knowledge of the geographical con-
ditiOns of the country. Every soldier
is compelled to make study of the
topography of all the japanese pos
sessions and they are we'll acquainted
