President Rooseyelt's call to the
Governors OF the various States, and
30 the members OF Congress, to a
conference to be held in, Washington
from May 18th to 18th next, with a
: view to discussing means for preserve
ing the natural resources OF thecoun-
try, is step in the right direction
and one which ought to have been
taken long ago. The great and con-
tinued prosperity OF this nation is
due to it's natural resources, and 1t
is because OF these, greater by lar
than al, other nation, that we have
enjoye greater prosperity than the
other nations OF the world. We
have, however, been reckless aud ex-
trava CANT in their use, and have in
many instances shown utter improv-
idence aud disregard for the future
In no case has this been more notice
able than in the manner in which the
timber lands OF the country have
been dsplt ted.
The,sssrepscspsrity OF the coun-
try depends as much upon its nat
ural resources as does the prosperity
OF the present, or as did the pros
perity of the past, and it behooves
the States and the national govern
ment, through their officials, not
only to warn against, but to check
this extravaganza as far as in their
power lies. He would be regarded as
a very poor business man, and a sell
fish one as well, who wasted his sub
stance and left his children to strug-
gle In want; and this is as true OF a
nation as it is OF an individual
President Roosevelt is on the right
track, and it is to be hoped that he
will have the active cooperation OF
all those he has called to confer with
him.

RELIEVING THE FINANCIAL
SITUATION.

The opinion is general among
bankers and business men that the
measure proposed by President
Roosevelt, through Secretary Cor
telyou, for the relief OF the money
stringency now prevailing in the
country, namely, the issuance OF
$5O,0OO,000 of Panama Canal bonds,
and OF sl0O,O00,000 treasury GER
tificates, will be effective. 1t will I'M
doVbtedly be so to a greater or less
extent II these certificates can b.
used by the national banks as part
OF their reserve fund, as the banks
win put as much OF their reserve as
they can spare into these securities,
and this money going into the L. 5.
treasury will be redeposised by the
government with the banks on col
lateral, and still more so il it can
bring out OF hiding the millions OF
dollars which have recently been
withdrawn from the banks on ac-
count OF the lack OF confidence in
their stability which has prevailed
among the masses. 1t does seem
strange, however. and hard to ac-
count for the necessity f6r sale OF
government bonds and issuance OF
treasury certificates, when there are
said to be ample funds in the Z. S.
treasury and the country is claimed
to bein a most prosperous condition.
There is either tremendous dispro-
portion between the supply OF money
in the country, or our financial sys-
tenn lacks the elasticity necessary for a
busy and growing country like ours.
In either event some permanent re-
medal steps ought to be taken by
Congress with reference TO our cur
rency system, in order to prevent
such action as is made necessary in
3he present crisis, which in itself
brExs about lack OF confidence.
In the. %eantime it may -
present adninistratjon-<dg against
the proposition OF explaining why
90 large bond issue should be neces-
sary in times OF peace and prosperity
and it may find itself in somewhat
the same strait as was the Cleveland
administration in 1893.

had from 6 to 20 years experience in
teaching. Students at such a school
enjoy great advantage and are sure of
that they are both paying for the privi-
