What the kin people brag about
most are the dead ones.
New-York tribune., 1907-12-06
IEGDnN AND W1TERN.

That WAS an excellent address which the
French Ambassador made at the opening OF
the National Rivers and HarbOrS Congress. II
was not only full of valuable suggestion and in
spiration but authoritative as coming from the
representative of a country which sets us at
once examples Of necessity and Of achievement
But there was nothing in ii more TO the point
than the reminder that forest preservation and
culture are essential auXiliaries to any sat
isfactory system of inland waterways. 1t
is he truly said, IAN absolute princpe-no
forests, no waterways"
The speaker cited the convincing example
of the Loire and other French rivers TO con
firm this principle. There are also similar ex-
amples in many other lands Spain is treeesS
country and her rivers are more miSchievous
than useful. Germany. on the other hand, has
probably the best river and canal systcm-for
so large q country-in the world, and has also
probably the best forest system. The great
classic rivers of Central Asia now flow through
chiefly treeless lands, and in their shallow and
shifting channels are much changed in char
scter and value as they are in name. Some
rivers OF our Western plains exemplify' the
same principle, and indeed some here in the
East do likewise in apprecable degree.
It is therefore auspicious circumstance
that forest preservation and waterway i'm
provement go hand in hand. The last few years
have seen a great national movement in both
of those directions. which is being fur
ther expanded as TO comprise abatement Of
all sorts of waste and general conservation of
resources. Unfortunately it is already too late
TO avert serious timber shortage, which is
even now upon US, with menace of actual fam
inc. But at least we can take steps for forest
restoration and preservation before we reach
the point at which that becomes all but impos-
sible-before the Hudson and the Mississippi
share the fate of the OSus and the Jaxartes-

"UOSOUTTO FEVER"

The resolution of the International Sanitary
Congress on Wednesday that the disease hith
erto called malaria shall hereafter be called
MESQUITE fever has much to commend it.
The demand whats in a namef" will not ap-
ply in this case to minimize the import of the
change 1t is true that the disease under the
new name will be as unpleasant to have it
was under the old. But it will be better under
stood, both prophylactcally and therapeuticaIly
and its ravages may be iesSened
The change is. for one thing, in the interest Of
accuracy to such extent that on this account
alone it would be justifable The old name
arose from the erroneous suppostion that the
disease was caused and conveyed by poisonous
emanations in the atmosphere, and that error
imposed many burdens and deprivatons. Some
have not dared TO live in the country in spring
time because they thought the freshly ploughed
soil reeking with malaria. and some have
fed from or Stunned what were really most de-
sirable places of residence because 1.-The soil
was malarious", And all the while the real
cause of the disorder was overlooked and per-
mitted to flourish unchecked. The change will
not only correct this error but will be a
Stant reminder Of the truth concerning the dis
ease, and thus we may hope constant incentive
TO the exercise of diligence and perseverance for
the extirpation of the pest bearing insects.

MITCH SOUTH AFRICA.

The election in the Orange River Colony
marks the second step toward the realization of
plans for Dutch South Africa The first was
taken in the Transvaal election. when the
Dutch-or R0er which does not always mean
Dutcla-minority of the electorate secured a
strong majority in the legislature Now the
overwhelming Dutch majority in the Orange
River Colony has secured an appropriately over
whelning-lnore than ee-fourtbS-maj0rity in
the legislature al Bloemfontein. In both the ante
election campaign and the post-election declara-
tions OF policy the Dutch organization Oraiigia
Cuie in the smaller colony has shown similarity
amounting 10 identity with that in the larger
colony IIet Nolk. and there is no doubt that the
two colonies will be governed practically the
same lines.
The third step is expected To- bc tie carrying
of the coming Cape Color, election by the Afri
k;ilder Bone. Al the time Of the dissolution of
the late legislature there seemed TO be little
doubt that this would be effected But since
then prospects have changed. DIR. jameson has
managed his campaign with notable boldness
ana shrewdsless combined and Mr. Sclreiner
v-ltn exercises Hu,h influence. has etled from

independent faction. which positively declines 10
