field is approved and the Attorney General is
entitled to the thanks of the people of this State
for the fearless and Independent discharge Of

IT MAY be general impression that most of
our forest destruction comes from the wood
mans axe and many may actually believe it is
the only way to make tree fall. Such is not
the case. Forest fires in this country cost
more than sos, 900 600 annually. 1t is kind
of loss which is particularly grievous, because
it takes many years of natures deliberate pro-
cesses of growth to restore it. A good deal of
this destruction might be avoided if proper
precautions were taken. Germany and France
do not suffer appreciably from forest fires. be-
cause they have strict forestry laws and obey
them. Here the general Government can do
little. except on its own preserves. The work
of protection is thus left to the States, and it
is not so thoroughly done as the urgency of
the case calls for. Probably there is increasing
efficiency in this direction year by year, but it
leaves the average of loss much greater than it
ought to be, and in marked contrast with that
of countries which have really efficient forestry
laws and live up to them.

In HOWARD the County Commissioners have
decided that they will not improve one mile
of the Washington road under the Slate aid
of the heavy expense. The estimate of the
highway division of the Geological Survey for
this mile was $500 and the Board thought
this too much. The contract for mile on the
Sykesville road has not been let.

THE UNITED STATES has rs, 900 posofices and
100000 miles of postal routes. with yearly
travel over them amounting to 500, 600. 900
miles. The service costs over $50, 100000 a
year. The receipts now almost equal the ex-
penditures. and have doubled in the last ten
years. It is quite likely the Postmaster Gen
erals report for 1905 win be favorable one,
as change has been made in the postage of
certain matter which heretofore has gone too
cheap. But it is not likely we will have ''pen-
ny postage" that is, onecent postage, for some
time to come. w zaalss

ADMINISTRATION.


The announcement in the Nss0s several weeks
ago that former Senator McComas would sue
coed Associate Justice Martin F. Morris Of the
District Court of Appeals is confirmed by the
official action of the President After his re-
tirement from the Senate it was given out that
Mr.. McComas would become more active in the
law firm in this city of which be has been the
senior partner for several years essrs. Nc
Comas, Gather & Greenbaum. Those close to
him, however. felt reasonably certain that Mr..
McComas would return to the bench. His re-
tirement from politics closes chapter that is
creditable to the Republican party in this
State. When that party in 1898 had Sena-
torship to dispose of. it sought out man of
ability and distinction upon whom to bestow
the honor. Mr. McComas has not developed
the qualities of party organizer, but be has
maintained high standards, and be has left be-
hind him record that is more valuable to his
party than anything be could have done as
practical politician.
An incident of Mr.. McComas' election to the
Senate was the elevation to the District bench
of Hon. Harry NJ. Clabaugh, whose removal
to Washington has been great loss to Mary
land politics. Judge Clabaugh was one of a
group of politicians-most of them young men
whose work in this State has not yet been
sufficiently recognized. Without them all the
independent effort would have proved una
vailing, because it was through them thatthere
was Republican party in Maryland to which
the people of Maryland were willing to turn
when the abuses of the Democratic machine
became intolerable. In taking leave of Mr..
McComas as figure and factor in our poll
tics and in extending to him all good wishes
let Us not forget those with whom he has been
associated in making the Republican party
such an instrument as the people of this State
would be willing to use-a list that includes
the names of Lloyd Lowndes. Stevenson
Archer Williams, George r. Gather. Thomas
J. Shryock, Phillips Lee Goldsborough and
Robert P. Graham. The work done under the
leadership Of these men and their associates
was indispensable to thep political emancipation
of Maryland, and opened the way for those
conditions of civic health which obtain today.
