4 HALT SHOULD BE CALLED.

A note of warning and halt are called by Clifford Pinchot, chief of the bureau of forestry of the department of agriculture. regarding the great consumption and often criminal waste of the timber in the United States. The bulletin is very readable and full of interesting facts, Its publication is timely and ought to do good It may do this in certain directions. but 1t may also be presumed that people viii % on in this matter as they have from the settlement of this country until absolute necessity compels them to stop and take new, more economi- cal and more sensible tack. The Pueb- 10 chieftain treats the subject as it ought to be treated editorially when it says that the national forestry bu- reau has just issued circular on
 The Timber Supply of the United
 States" which shows that every person

in the country is using six times as much timber as he would if he lived in Europe It also contains iniorma- tion showing that the country as a whole is consuming three or four times as much timber every year as the for ests are producing And the circular adds that only one result can follow the continuance of such course. ''un- less steps are promptly taken to pre- vent waste in use and to increase the growth rate of every acre of forests" {"
 However. it is also useless to preach economy in the use of timber So long as the people of the country can purchase lumber at reasonably low rate they will continue to use it law ishly. Individuals who own tracts of timber land will take advantage of the opportunity to turn it into money at the first opportunity, and no amount of advice or entreaty will be effective in getting them to practice economy in :he destruction of their forests.
 But if a means cannot be provided Ito safeguard the forests and guarantee the elimination of waste in the use of timber, steps must be taken speed. fly to secure the planting of timber tracts. It is by this means only that the future lumber supply of the coun. try can be provided, and at the same time handsome returns will be had in this transaction.

THE GOVERNMENT ON cHlcKEN-RAIsINe

The agricultural department has at last run afoul of something that is go. ing to give the administration the
 worst of it, It has undertaken to prove that all poultry-raisers are not millionaires and that not all or the mathematical calculations that go to show that hen will produce 200 eggs 2 year at s cents per dozen are cor rect. In fact, the department is ser iously assailing the productive capaci- ty of the hen. It admits that there are quite a number of individuals through out the country who are making mon- ey hand over fist out of the chicken business; but in the pamphlet that it has issued it intimates that the profits were not due so much to the produc- tiveness of the hen as 10 the ability of the owner to delineate roseate dreams upon the minds or the people who were buying eggs for setting and bone mixtures for food However, the government admits that it is possi- hle for a man to make money out of chickens if he goes at it in the right way. A man must not go into the business with the idea of separating a million from five hens and a rooster during the first week; he must ap- proach the hen with deep humility and a disposition to admit the hen into the partnership. According to this pamphlet it is not an uncommon thing for a man to start in with 10000 hens and come out with a game ieg ana string Of Spanish explosives, and even after the performance is over the man can figure that 10000 hens laying I0,- poo eggs day at cents per egg, will ss1ng in revenue of $500 day and in the winter time have some to spare In short this last work of she government on chickens is indeed beautiful poetry. and bank clerks. dry goods clerks. and holders of govern  ment bonds who contemplate increas- ing their revenue 1000 per cent are ad- vised to get this document and delve into the mysteries of the business be- fore giving up their iobs or trans Forming their bonds into hens.
 When they first engaged in he business they may live high but it will nes take them loag to learn that the chicken lotters is equal to Chinese policy game as delusion and snare.

sNARLiNG AT THE NEW STATE.

President Roosevelt has done well to order the department of justice to drop its examination of The Oklahoma constitution. The notice he has re- ceived from President Murray, of the convention. that the copy of the docu- ment handed him by the too ardent Watson, of Indiana, is neither official nor correct makes further pursuit of the inquiry at this time worse than useless.
 That the president should have re- ceived from the enemies of statehood an incorrect report of the proposed constitution Is only another instance Of the vain and malicious attacks that are made upon the work of the con yen3ion
 Since the convention is composed al. most wholly of democrats it was to be expected that the document it has framed would contain many things ob- jectionable to republicans. Democrat ic conventions are not in the habit of making republican platforms or con stitutions
 The republicans will have to take the medicine which the democrats of Oklahoma offer them. They are vast ing breath in denouncing it as con ;rary to the constitution of the United States or to the provisions of the en- abling act
 Even if tie new stat- had been to some extent gerrymandered in favor of the democrats. neither the consitu- ton of the United States nor the en- abling act would have been violated thereby. Every republican legislature in laying out congressional and leg isiatiye districts does the same thing.
 And as there is no official census that comes anywhere near represent ing the present population of the new state. it may be presumed that repub- lican cries of 'gerrymander' proceed largely from vivid imaginations.
 If the Oklahoma constitution pro. vides for commission to treat with the Choctaw and Chickasaw Indians for the purchase by the new state of their segregated coal and asphalt lands there is certainly no treason in the proTisioE. The lands would be a most valuable possession out of which the new state could richly endow it's school fund.
 In truth the uproar which the repub- licans are making against the work of thc convention IS only idle boise. The faults they ind with 1t do not affect he main issue, which is that the new ly-framed instrument shall conform to the constitution of the United States and to the requirements of the enabling act.
 Until they can show wherein it violates either they had better hold their peace. The president cannot law fully withhold his proclamation an announcing the admission of the state of Oklahoma after the people have adopted constitution conforming to the. legal requirements.

THE INDUSTRY


 King Edward of England is the Edward Box of Europe. While the charming editor of the Ladies Home Journal. so popular with the proposed jurymen in Boise, is telling us how to tie our eravats and where to place our chewing gum over night, the i. tasss of King Edward runs to demon
 ra.ive> >haberdashery, such as would cause fire alarm in Bisbee.
 This genial monarch has not much to do of an official nature, but he is basy introducing new and strange Sarticles of wear, and thus keepins the dealer wondering where the iehns is going to jump next As told in the cable dispatches to the Review last sunday, he has just finished a tour of the continent and his return to England was attended with the usual excitement along Picadilly-if that's the street While looking in the shop windows of small town in the land of his nephew, the Kaiser, he saw a new kind of cap which struck his fancy, and it was packed in the royal baggage consigned to London.
 Waiting for a day of balmy sun shine, the king donned the cap and started out for stroll. His oonnng was heralded by wireless nine blocks ahead, and the haberdashers, matters and shoe peddlers, sharp of nose and dull of intellect were as fussy as a nest of wrens on rainy day. With necks of rubber. they stooa out m front until the king loomed in sight, wearing that cap. It was made of white linen. with a black visor thai fitted tightly on the forehead, and looked like a crime But the king had it on, and that was enough. Sketches were hastily made as the monarch passed by,and orders TOT q million caps just like it, more or less, were rushed to the manufacturers.
 But that isn't all the king did upon his return. He also came across a tan stick of the kind used by Giperrs Grandee in ~The Gondoliers,- and started to popuiarize it. According to the dispatches: Department has to be studied very carefully in the use of this stick. It is grasped about a foot from the top and the arm is flung out at full length whiIe walk ing. the attitude of the body being of Jobnsonian dignity and gravity"
 You bet your life. Anybody who could laugh while using this pole is utterly lacking in respect for the se- rious phase of human existence. The solemn function of carrying load of Jphnsonian dignity and tsraysty goes admirably with the task i'm posed upon his subjects by the king, and if the devotee of royal style. while out for walk, sees a--ythiag funny. he car caii a boy 10 hold fhe stick while he gives way to his Joy. That's the proper etiquette ef the tzEl stick. as we see ii. It is solemn affair-oyer in Londsp But just im- agine man wearing tslssF cap and carrying the pole down Tombstone Canyon.

"a tale unfold
To harrow up thy soul"

According to Al G. Field, the min
stTel, no race in the world is more gov
erned by superstition than the negro;
his life is filled with fatal periods and
unluCky days, and his nights are haunt
ed with visions of witches, elves, ana
demons. Mr.. Field says that in parts
of the southland among the negroes
who are far removed from civilization,
the chief religious consolation is devil
worship. Said Mr.. Field: Il mean
the southern negro. the kinkey- haired,
lOw-brOwed, almost Chinless negro, who
delights i'll being frightened, and whose
belief in a personal devil acts upon
them as soothing strip would upon
a child" This belief is hereditary, de
seconded from time immemorial, when
the negroes forbears wOrshiped their
idols i'll the depths of the African for

continued Mr.. Field lis governed by
what you might call caul of super
stitiOn, with which every negro comes
enveloped at birth; all the biblical in
struCtiOn in the world cannot change
his religious perversity, for it is from
the bible the negro draws no small
portion of his philosophy of life; and
while he may take passage here and
there too literally, yet he derives a
satisfaction from the bible that he
would probably assail more truculently
an enemy thereof than one who had
done him personal wrong. He finds
