A BIC NEWSPAPER.

It is real pleasure to The Advertiser to offer it's hearty and sincere con- gratulations to 1ne Columbus Enquir- er-Sun on its Annual Trade Edition of
 sixty pages issued last Sunday. We haven't read it through. for the average newspaper man is too busy to under
 take such job. but we have looked carefully through it and know that it lis well-gotton up and handsome mir
 TOT of Columbus and vicinity. We sus-
 pect that this is the biggest and hand
 somest paper ever sent out from Colum-
 bus, and those who got 1t up may well
 feel proud of the achievement. colum-
 bus is one of the best and busiest
 among Southern cities and it is for-
 tunate in having newspaper to exploit it's many advantages as this one does.

statute books arc loaded down with statutes which cannot be enforced and which should not, h many cases. Thus it is that officials are clothed with powers they cannot exercise, and called on to do things which cannot possibly be done And thus. also. 1t comes about that the enactment of laws which can not be enforced leads to disrespect of all law and contempt for legal enact- ments.
 But what of it7 This is the age of reform. don't you know. The craze is on and it must wear itself out before there can be any rest or peace Men must be made good, whatever else may happen. If the teachings and examples of the good men and women among us will not bring about universal good- ness then the strong arm of the law must get to work with its big stick and reform them. Perhaps this craze will wear itself out. as others have done in the past. and then sanity will resume it's sway and there will be peace. At present passion. prejudice and unreason have the upper hand and calm reason Is forced tp remain in the back ground. The only consolation we have lies in the fact that it cannot en- dure forever.

The Washington Post. summing up the Bryan situation says: Democrats who see clearly the hopelessness of Bryan's candidacy have nothing against the man. He is not only regarded with respect for many good qualities. but his influence in the party Is conceded. Many Democrats think it is entirely too great for the party's good. But it is partly on account of MT. Bryan's negatively good qualities that his can didacy is so hopeless. He speaks of the awakened public conscience which will not rest until government of the people. by the people, for the people is restored to the people. Yet he takes stand for nothing distinctive that will hasten such a happy day"

Although the effort is being made to create the impression that Federal of- fice-holders are not to go to the, Re- publican National Convention, nothing has been given out that warrants any such conclusion. The so-called order is to the effect that office-holders must not go instructed to vote for Roose- velt's nomination. That will not pre- vent the convention being filled with Roosevelt uninstructed delegates. From the South the great bulk of the delegates will be Federal officials and the most of these are svowed support- CTS of the third term for Roosevelt.

THE AGE OF CRAzEs.

This world of ours is largely con- trolled by crazes in some forms or other. Readers of history will recall a num- Der of them which have swept over the world in the past. Sometimes one takes the form of religious craze. and they are the most dominating of all. There will arise fanatic perhaps self deceived, but none the less earnest, who will feel or claim that his mission is to convert all humanity. and 1t is won- derful what an influence he will exert. People will flock to him, believe in him and follow him without question or doubt. They may after a time be un- deceived, or their faith may remain to the last. Mahomedanism was simply 8 religious craze but 1t has endured for centuries.
 We have had in our own country a number of political crazes, as all know. Sometimes-perhaps all the time-there is real and just cause of complaint. There are real evils which should be
 
 corrected, and which the old parties do not seem able or willing to right. Then a new party blooms out and for a time seems destined to put all the old ones out of business. but its life is more or less brief. Though 1t may for a time flourish as the green bay tree 1t finally goes out and ceases to exert any potent influence. Most of its late devotees drop out and go back to their former political associations and an- other promising child is dead.
 Just now there is a craze of reform taking possession of the land and it is widespread. There are wrongs in the social, political and industrial world that ought not to exist and they must be corrected. or somebody will know the reason why. Should things be permitted to go on in the wrong way while we have Presidents and Con- gresses, governors and legislatures. and various other law-making appliances at hand? Of course not. else what is the use of such things? Therefore and consequently they go to work to get laws passed that will correct every evil under which humanity suffers If one law fails they can get another right out of the box until the right one is tried-if there Is a right one. It matters not that all efforts to make people good through the laws have failed from the time that laws have been in existence. It matters not that all attempts to legislate goodness and morality and sobriety and honesty into men have never succeeded. All that is no obstacle In the way of those
 who set out with the full determina- tion to legislate goodness into people if they upset the universe. If men and women will not be good of their own volition the law must make them be good, or the law is no use.
 Therefore 1t comes about that our legislative bodies, State and national, are constantly beseiged by well mean ing humanitarians, by cranks. and by ill-advised lovers of their kind. all of whom have plans for making the world better, and preventing people from doing wrong-and their plans are too often yhGEEed tn. Thus 1t ts that eur

| 2 Speaking of Monroe and Roosevelt" The Washington Times makes this com parison:
 Those who read the history. of their country co. VIII find melancholy inter inter. has evoked the President's call for a conference to conserve our natural re- sources and the state of those resources Monroe on his tour of discovery in 1877. Then the riches of the Republic were boundless. Today we face the famine in coal, and impoverished har- vests as we'll as crippled transporta- tion through the drying of our rivers. The old adage about locking the stable door after steed Is stolen is ap- plicable here. That something may yet be done to preserve what is left of our natural resources is true enough. but the matter has been too long delayed. Though not the greatest of our Presi- dents James MonTpe was one of the most far-seeing of all who have held that high position. In his day hardly 8 beginning had been made In the work of destruction which has been going on so rapidly and so ruthIessly with in the past half a century. What was then the United States was largely Q region of unbroken forests, of clear and constantly flowing streams and apparently unlimited quantities of tim Der. while far the greater part of what is now the Union was practically un- touched by man.
 All this was plain to President Mon roe for he made it part of his duty to see as much of the country as he could do with the limited means of travel then open to him. He saw the amazing he was also able to look farther and foresee some of the certainties of the future, and so far as he had the power to provide for what was to come. but no mere mortal being could have fore seen the conditions that would exist before quarters of a century had RdcSCu itC SOAAo hOt AtAeSSSO thC mania of destruction that has possessed the people of the United States in these later days. He could not have provided against what has been done but foreseeing it would have been source of grief to him beyond doubt.
 It Is no mere idle talk to speak of a timber famine. for 1t is not only im- minent but we are actually suffering from it now, as all know who have any knowledge of the high and in creasing prices of everysform of native wood. Wood for fuel or fur building is becoming so scarce, and so expensive that substitutes must be found. The timber is gone or going and the results are disastrous. whether the confer ence alluded to can accomplish any use- full and permanent good remains to be seen, but certainly all that can be ac- complished should be done at once. The need for wise discussion and action is urgent, and it is fervently to be hoped that good will come of it.
