LESSONS FROM
THE EQUITABLE.
Manufacturers Record.

When the Equitable insurance souab-
bic was begun many who looked be-
meath the surface came to the conclu-
sion that whatever might have been
the motives at the beginning which
prompted the officials who are waging
war on each other, the real fight was
between Morgan and Hartman for the
control of the company with it's enor-
nous assets. No one imagined that
either Morgan or Hartman proposed to
utilize these assets in any but a legiti.
mate way. but how vast IS the power
which the control of such a company
gives may be realized from the fact
that the $500, 900, 900 of assets of the
Equitable is equal to more than half
of the national banking capital Of the
United States. The purchase of a
control of the company by Mr.. Ryan,
and his close association with Mr..
Morgan, taken In connection with
other things bearing on the matter,
can only be interpreted as a Morgan
victory, thus enabling Mr.. Morgan to
add one more vast aggregation of
wealth to his encourage. With the
Equitable and the New York Life
closely affiliated with Morgan inter
eEts, and with the Mutual Life prob
ably not unfriendly-in fact, the re-
port is now being that the Mutual Life
is interested in the purchase of the
Equitable-the enormous power of the
81, 500, 100000 assets owned or con-
trolled by these three companies is
probably practically masked for any
active financial movement. This pow
er is too vast for safety and for the
good Of the country.
1t will be better in the long run
should the fight in ana for the Equit.
able cause the whole country to seri-
ously consider the question Of insur-
ance. 1t seems hardly possible to be-
lieve that the purchase of a control of
the stock and the management of this
property by people who have been
bitterly assailed for alleged illegal acts
will overcome the criticisms which
have been called out by the recrimina-
tons Of the officers and directors, and
Il the final result of ali this trouble
should lead to lessening of the rela-
tive power of a few of the great in
surance companies the country will be
better of for it. We believe that the
enormous drain Of money from every
section into the treasury OF few big
Insurance companies is distinct dis
advantage. 1t has resulted in too
great concentration Of wealth and
power, and at the same time in too
great a cost of insurance. For years
the South and the West have poured
into the East millions and tens of mil

times past this may have been neces-
sary. but now the South is financially

%woNDERFuL GROWTH
q OF CITY or TAMPA.
Tampa Times.
9 \: 2 y. e :.

In the year ending June 80, 1899,
the customs collections OF Tampa ex-
ceeded the hundred thousand mark,
for the first time. Twelve years later,
Ia 1901, the collections rose above a
million dollars. The fiscal year just
ended shows collections of $1,650.97l,
or more than go per cent. in four
years larger than at the period lass
mentioned. These four years of growth
in Tampa have been simply phenome-
nal.
The Internal revenue collections for
the year just ended were $652.364, as
against $527,343 for the preceding
year and 1872 Ie6 for the calendar year
OF 1901-which Is the nearest compare
tive period this moment at hand.
These figures show growth of IS per
cent. in the cigar manufacturing bust,
ness as shown by the increase in in
ternaI revenue receipts.
These are very hattering figures,
but they are not only true on the face
of the official records-taey are borne
out by every sort of collateral evi-
dence, such as the increase in railway
and steamer traffic, the fow of travel,
the erection of new houses for bust
ness and residence purposes, the IN
crease in the attendance on the public
schools, the growth OF churches and
fraternal orders in membership, the
extension of street car lines, water
and gas mains, deposits in the banks,
and in every department of activity
having relation to the business and
population of the city. In 1901 the
Times predicted a doubling of the size
and business Importance of Tampa By
the time the next federal census was
taken in 1910 and there were those
who deemed it over hopeful. We
were all somewhat disappointed that
the census gave us less than 10000
people in the city proper, with about
1000 in the suburbs. But the Times
was not in the least disheartensd,
holding firmly to its estimate.
To-day 1t is more than justified.
Within the past five years the approx
mate increase in customs collections
has been ESQ per cent, almost as great
in internal revenue and postoffice re,
ceipts, and still greater in all branches
of commerce and business. The growth
in urban and suburban population has
been about so per cent, though OF
course the larger percentage of growth
has been outside the city limits. Mark
the difference between the term pen.
centage and portion. The absolute in
crease inside the very limited munich
pality has been larger In actual num-
bers than outside, the apparent adj.
vantage OF the suburbs being merely
one of proportion from smaller
starting point as basis>of comparison.
For all practicable purposes these
suburbs are part Of the city, and in
all estimates of. the business and
standing and population are counted
with it.
Columns might be filled with &C.
counts and particulars Of the vigorous
growth of the city, but it is needless.
The epitome given here is sufficient
for any intelligent man to have re-
vealed to him indisputably the great
fact that Tampa is .outstripping any
city in the south in the race for me-
tropolitan character and magnitude.

NO FORESTS, NO FISH.
e z z q : 3 lsiR

The preservation of our streams is
necessary to the preservation of our
fish, but many of the readers may not
yet have considered how intimately
the preservation of our steams and
hence the very existence of many fish,
especially brook trout, depends upon
the preservation of the forests.
To illustrate this relationship be-
tween forests and water, make a
couple of troughs, line one with clay
to- represent the country denuded OF
trees, the opposite trough lined with
sods of grass or moss to represent the
forest-clad mountain side, set them on
an incline and connect their upper
ends with a rough reservoir and there
viii be a Wild rush of water down the
clay-lined trough, while the moss and
grass-lined one will drip for hours.
1t only needs little imagination to
convert this machine into a forest
clad mountain and one denuded of tim
ber.
The cloudburst represented by the
contents of the bucket suddenly poured
into the top reservoir is only a dam
Serous eloudburSt on the barren slope.
BY the use OF this simple device you
can explain to a child the absolute
necessity of preserving the forests up-
on the water sheds, IL we would have

certainty of flood and drouths which
are caused by the watersheds being
recklessly denuded of timber.-Dan
