Mrs. Magdalene Dick is one Of the

legislative body on earth. That son
is the Hon. Charles William Frederick
Dick. senator from Ohio, who succeed

There is especial swelling OF pride
in the breast OF Mrs. Dick as she looks
down from the Senate Gallery upon
her boy, for the reason that che knows
better than any one else how many
were the struggles and how rough the
maths that led to his present honor.

the rigging. politely turned aside to
conceal his amusement. No ship, he
explained, could possibly have gone to

he kept studying at night to gain an
education. and to achieve something
better than an anxious interest In the
market price Of oats. The good mother
who looks down upon him In the SEN
ate can recall with much pride the
struggles of the son to better his place
in the world and she did her part to
help him. He went into politics and
was elected county auditor before he
was 80. This Is always the best once
in any courthouse and gave the young
man start not only In politics but
in business. His activity and shrewd-
ness in local elections led to his Sc
lection In 1899 as chairman Of the
state executive committee. He won
the election by such a small majority
that there was no glory in It. but the
following year he managed the second
election Of Mckinley as Governor with
splendid results. Later he went to
Congress- from the old Garfield dis
trict and when Hanna died. came TO
the senate by unanimous vote.

That the commercial interests of the
the desirability Of promoting the settle
west, is shown by the very comprehen-
tional Board Of Trade in Washington,
powerful association, composed OF
representatives from most of the great
commercial bodies Of the United States.
The organization represents combined
capital of billions of dollars employing
several hundred thousand workers; 1t
has been a strong factor In urging
legislation on various important in
ternal works; it was the first of tho
great commercial bodies of the East
to advocate the passage Of the national
irrigation law and it has a regular
standing committee on forestry and
irrigation.
The report of the organization this
year is most interesting and reads a.

1t is gratifying to note that much
Of the legislation on Forestry and r.
rigation matters which has been con-
sistently urged by the National Board
Of Trade has been enacted into law.
The National Board was the first or
ganization> representing the CONNER
cial interest of the whole country to re-
commend a national irrigation policy
and June II. 1902 a National Irri-
cation law was enacted. There is in
the Irrigation Fund at the present
time about $3O,00O,000 which is in
creasing from the sale of public lands

year.
In the matter of Forestry legislation
the National Board Of Trade recon-
mended the passage Of the bill pro-
viding for the consolidation Of tho
various forestry branches of the
Government into the Bureau Of Fores-
try Of the Department Of Agriculture.
This bill was enacted into law at the
last session Of Congress.
The National Board Of Trade has
stood against the practice Of exchang-
ing worthless "scrip" Land in the
national forest reserves for valuable
public lands outside Of the reserves
and has repeatedly recommended the
repeal Of the law permitting this prac-
tice. This law was repealed at the last
session Of Congress.
At the last meeting of the National,
Board, opposition was expressed to

at the last session Of Congress.
Much, however. remains to be done.
The National Board of Trade has con-
sistently advocated the saving Of the
great public domain for the use Of tho

and timber grabber and the speculator.
Trade and commerce will increase -
