Clifford Pinchott, chief forester Of
the United States, will spend the
month of June in Idaho investigat.
ing the forest reserves and explain-
ing to the people the purpose of the
system and its benefits to them.
This is decidedly sensible move
on the part of the chief forester, for
no act of the present administration
has been so bitterly and so general
ly condemned as the forest reserve
system as applied in Idaho. 1t is
said that Mr.. Pinchott will try to
meet with the people of every local
ity interested, and we assure Mr..
Pinchott that the people of every To-
cality viii try to meet him, for if We
are wrong We want to know it and
if he is wrong we want the chance
to show it.

The exposures in the public service
of the government, now being pushed
with relentless vigor, seem appalling
to the mass of the people, and in
many minds has stirred a doubt if
this government of the people, by
the people, for the people" is the
grand success Of which we so proud
ly boast. We say that any intelli-
gent mind, carefully studying the
record of these United States from
the beginning to the present, con-
sidering all the conditions, must be
convinced that it is not only a sue
cess as a government, but the loft
lest reach ever made by man for the
betterment of his fellowman that
the pages Of history record. The
seed Of the public corruption now
being exposed was planted long ago,
long before the revolution made US
a nation. Twas imported from the |
mother land by the ministers of a,
corrupt and arbitrary king, and dis
tributed among their obedient ser
wants here, for general cultivation.
1t proved of prolific growth in those
carly days, and has exhibited marve-
lous fecundity and wondefeus vi
tality evento the present time, but the
Eat of the American people is against
It now and "Graft" in the public
service of the United States this
ime will 60 forever.

Odd Marriage Ceremony Of Those
Barbarous Little People.

Odd Marriage Ceremony Of Those
Barbarous Little People.
Belonging as they do to the lowest
type of civilization as yet discovered,
the Negritos of Malaysia and their
ways are we'll worth studying. Simple,
primitive, barbarous little people, their
customs are those of prehistoric man.
They have no fixed home or settle
ments, but are wanderers over their
mountainous islands, sleeping under
banana leaf, living on herbs and ber-
rfes and game.
Their marriage ceremony Is q unique
survival of early life. The sutton and
a few companions dance about the
shelter of the desired girl. There is
q curious resemblance between the
dances Of the prospective bridegroom
and those of many Of the game birds
of our woodland. Finally the girl, ac-
companied by her mother, starts to-
ward the dwelling Of the young men.
They frequently stop, sQuatting In the
trail while the ardent sutton and his
companions continue their entreating
and bewitching dances, winding round
and round the girl. Presents are gen
orally demanded and must be given
before the reluctant bride will pro-
coed. Finally the women arrive near
steep bamboo platform. A wild
shout pierces the air, and the bride
groom, like a frenzied animal. tears
through the Negritos assembled at the
base Of the platform, snatches the
bride In his arms and flies up the In
cline with his mate, where they sit
during the wedding feast--New York

Most Nearly Perfect Vacuum.

1t was Professor Dewar's achieves
ment In liquefying hydrogen that led
to the discovery Of an easy method of
obtaining an almost perfect vacuum,
and that In a single minute. When a
glass tube filed with air and closed
at one end has its open end dipped into
a cup of liquid hydrogen, the intense
cold condenses the air into kind Of
snow that settles to the bottom. II,
then, the upper part of the tube, from
which the solidified air has fallen. is
removed by heating and cooling 1t of
1t becomes a vacuum chamber so free
from air that it is difficult to force an
electric current through it.-New York
