Preident Roosevelt should receive
the support of all earnest and fair
minded people throughout the coun-
try in his efforts to conserve the nat
ural resources of these United States,
which is, in his estimation, the gravest
question before the nation today.
To this end he has invited the COVER
nors of the States and the members of
the inland waterways commission to
meet at the White House in May
next for the discussion of the subject,
and we hope that they will speedily
concur in the view of the President
that "it is the plain duty of those of
us who, for the moment are respon-
sible, to make inventory of the nat
ural resources, which have been hand
ed down to us, to forecast as well as
we may the needs of the future, and
so to handle the great sources of our
prosperity as not to destroy in ad-
vance all hope of the prosperity OF
our descendants" The public does
not realize the extent of the destruc-
tion that has been going on for years,
except, perhaps, in those sections OF
the country where the waste of GER
tain resources was perfectly apparent
In the middle west, for instance, the
supply of natural gas is exhausted,
simply because care had not been ex-
ercised to conserve the supply. And
while the coal fields in Iowa, Missouri
Illinois and Kentucky are not de-
pleted, the people are paying from
ten to fifteen per cent. more than they
should, and all because the coal sup
ply has not been properly cared for
The most conservative estimates show
that the annual consumption of tim.
ber is three times as great as the an
nual growth, and it is predicted that
at the present rate, shortage of tim
ber will inevitably follow. Truly, il
Is time the people of the country
awoke to realization of the real con-
dition of affairs.

SPECIAL NOTICE.
FRIDAY NOVEMBER 30, 1907

The State of Oklahoma enters the
Union abundantly qualified to hold
her place in the commercial world.
Not only has she demonstrated the
fertility Of her soil in producing large
crops of wheat, rye, cotton, corn, fruit,
etc, but her mineral resources of coal,
asphaltum, iron, oil, and natural gas
alone would place her in the front
ranks. And her land is by no means
devoted solely to the commercial ag-
grandizement of her people. Some
100000 acres of excellent land have
been set aside for the maintenance of
her educational institutions. We wish
her all success and prosperity.

The beautiful monument that will
soon be erected on Ft. Meigs will be
unveiled some time next year after
the weather becomes more propitious,
and while it is rather early to set the
date for it's unveiling, we hope that
those who have the matter in charge
will not select Decoration or Memo
rial Day for that purpose. That day
is or should be observed by appropri-
ate ceremonies in every village and
hamlet throughout this section, and if
the unveiling of the monument is set
for that date it will be impossible for
many people throughout adjoining
towns and counties coming here to
attend the unveiling because of their
interest in the ceremonies of Decora
tion Day in their home towns.

PROTEGES SAFE
immigrants Already Induced
to Go There May
Stay.

The immigrants TO South Carolina,
who were induced to go there by the
agent OF the state. are legally entitled
to remain, according TO the opinion sub
mitted by Attorney General Bonaparte
to President Roosevelt According to
the dictum Of the Attorney General, the
immigrants came here under conditions
not in violation Of the law when in force
and. although their passage WAS paid
in violation of the act Of 1898. IL did not
render the aliens themselves liable TO
exclusion, as the law did not contain
any penalty excluding those from adj
mission whose passage money had been
paid in violation Of its terms.
The Attorney General holds that under
the exclusion act, which has just gone
into effect. the practices and methods
by which the immigrants were induced
TO go and did go 20 South Carolina
would now be Illegal.
