THE POETRY OF "PANTs."
A "seam of Sentiment" in Army.
Trousers Women Are to- Make.

From the New York Telegram
The seamstresses of Philadelphia have no
vote and if they had the fact would az
vantage President Roosevelt nothing, slhee
he has vowed not to be candidate asaiiA
under any circumstances. The voices OF
these good women rise In praise or the
President. for he has had it so arranged
that they will receive the CONTRACT lor
making 5000 pairs of trousers for the
army.
Their nimble fingers, as they bend to their
work. will word mute song Of thanks
and appreciation for this recognition. 1t
is true that their bid was so per cent more
than that of other concerns, but the Pres
ident must have had good reason for think
ing their work worth it. The trousers fash
Toned by Philadelphia seamstress possess
qualities which recommend them above
those of any other make. The city itself
is symbol of solidity, strength and un-
pretentious merit.
From the historic pants Of Penn to the
celebra ted pantaloons of Pennypacker the
mark of sturdy excellence of merit has been
maintained. Now that the work has grad
ually passed from the hands of unsenti-
mental men the seamstresses come forward
as a national factor. Well made trousers
need much honest meritorious work
as, battle ship, and special care is re-
quired in the upbuilding of the military arti-
Gle. Every stitch should be instinct with
patriotism and heroic resolve.

but the Philadelphia reincarnatiQn is quite
a different sort of creature handling the
stern realities of life in a profitable FASH
ion, discarding the shirt as something In
nocentIy picturesque, but totally inadequate
to enNbody the real spirit of the times.
This national recognition of the Pnila-
delphia made trousers is likely to bring a
period of f1attering prosperity to the seam
stresses Henry Clay, who was IN eX-

merit of her scrapple, and they are just
as much of a creation. No one with q

rapturous, farinaceous embrace, awaiting

Who shall say that the trousers made by
the fair hands that prepare scrapple will
not be an inspiration to great achievement

FOREST DESTRUCTION.
One of the Causes of the Drought in
Western Pennsylvania.

From the New York Sun.
A drought of great severity and pro-
longed for three months. In the coal and
iron regions of western Pennsylvania,
lately caused the closing of some manu-
featuring plants and the curtailment of
activity in others. correspondent who
writes to us on the subject attributes this
drought to the short-sighted policy of for
est destruction that has prevailed in the
afflicted region since 1t became an impor-
tane manufacturing center, and probably
he is right.
1t has seemed cheaper and easier, in the
past, for coal miners and oil well drlllers
to burn off the forests than to cut the
trees discriminatory and according to SCI
entific principles. The object Of the pros
pectors and mine developers was to get at
the minerals with as little expense of labor
and money as possible. They were not
concerned about preserving the forests for
the benefit of the region
Western Pennsylvania has not suffered
in this way any more than other parts of
the Union. Until few years ago the
telling and destruction of trees for all pur-
poses went forward merciessly and al
most without protest. 1t was taken as a
matter of course, even demonstra ton
of the progress of civilization. Wasteful
methods of logging were pursued on the
assumption that the forests Of the United
States are inexhaustible; yet actually the
timber supply is limited and calculable
The removal of forest growths. too, may
have serious effects on streams and ponds
Accordingly, in many states laws have
been passed for the protection of the
woodlands, and the bureau Of forestry In
the Department of Agriculture is doing
excellent work in educating the public to
full realization Of the Importance Of for
est preservation. 1t appears from the let
ter of our western Pennsylvania CORE
spondent that in that region the admoni-
lions Of the forestry bureau are still un-
needed Reckless destruction Of the wood
lands is alarming the inhabitants. They
fear that because Of 1t they are doomed
to suffer permanently from a dangerously
diminished rainfall consequent on the re-
duction of the streams by the reckless de-
mutation of the forest lands If their
present difficulties should be found to be
due to that cause, even in part a powerful
and effective lesson of the necessity Of
scientific forestry would be taught, not to
them merely, but also to every other re-
gion In the Union,
