THE CRUISE TO
THE PACIFIC.

The only thing certain about the
result of the great cruise OF the
American battle-ship fleet to
Pacific is that it will be q tremend-

Of ships, officers and men, says the
" Baltimore News" In ordinary
circumstances, this of itself nigh
be accepted as sufficient justification
for the cruise, and no serious crit.
cism would be forthcoming. As it
is, the circumstances surrounding
the inception of the undertaking
gave rise to grave doubts as to it's
wisdom. When it was first an.
nounced, the disturbed state Of feel
ing on our Pacific coast over ques-
tions relating to japanese immi-
grants and the offense that had been
given to national sentiment in Japan
by unpleasant occurrences in San
Francisco and elsewhere had produc-
ed a condition of tension which gave
to the unexpected announcement OF
transfer of our entire battle-ship
feet to Pacific waters an appearance
of menace, or at least of what mary
felt would be regarded as menace by
the Japanese. The oscillations be-
tween affirmation and denial of the
authenticity of the original an
nouncement did not diminish the
suspicion thus aroused, but rather
added to the irritation. However,
this irritation gradually subsidized,

may do so If there is work he can do,

MORE WATER FOR
GRAZING STOCK


In its investigations for the inn
provemnt of grazing lands within the
National Forests carried on during
the past year, the Forest Service has
found that the ranges on some of the
forests can not be fully utilized by
stockmen because of a lack OF a
proper water supply. Plans have
been made for lettering these condf-
tons as rapidly as possible Work
to improve the water supply On the
National Forest ranges VIII be
started this year on the DeadviIie Ma
tional Forest in Colorado and the
Tumacacori National Forest in ARR
ona, and before the coming OF an
other grazing season number OF
ranges will be improved very mate
rally. On the Leadyille Forest, the
forest officers will clean out and PRO
tect twelve different springs, ana
pipe water into troughs- The WORK
on the Tumacacori Forest in Arizoaz
will be somewhat more extensive, al
though it viii be confined to the i'm
provement of the supply OF only half
as many springs as on the Col0Ez1ao
Forest This method Of cleaning out
and protecting springs and other wa
tering places will result ia much ben

A great deal of this has been made
up of small lots purchased by thOus'

A fair majority of these investors are

of it good securities are being sacri-

real value by pools and individuals
who are forced to meet obligations in

aud e long
we have been nassing through one
OF the severest panics in the history
vi the financial markets. No one can
remember such a striking elimination
of calamity and disaster previously.
Governmental antagonism of corpora
tions, and the misdeeds of promoters
and plungers, cooperated to make
bonds and other securities unstable,
and Industrial progress, which had
been going at an unprecedented pace,
was stopped with a Jolt. The persist
ent decline in security prices had
weakened speculative accounts and
bank loans very severely before the
panic was precipitated by the Heinze-
United Copper Mercantile bank and
