state Rights.

. We are a little anxious about the oondi-
ton Of the eyes of our esteemed contem-
porary the Philadelphia Record, for We
find 1t saying:
Says our Respondent contemporary TINE Son
The rights and immunitics and prerogstivcs OF
the North Carolina courts are perfectly safe In the
hands OF the Federal judiciary But so they are
in the hands Of tho North Carolina judiciary and
there are rights, immunltics and preroEatives OF
state courts which the Federal Judiciary has no
business TO interfere with. The powers OF . Fed
ersi Circuit Judge are not yet quite equivalent 70
those of a British resident at the court of a media
tired Indian rsjsh."
The question Ia not Of any encroach-
ment on a States rights by a Federal
Judge. The question IL not whether
Judge PRITcHARD Is right or wrong In
his view Of the matter in dispute. The
question is simply whether a conflict Of
judicial opinions or of judicial processes
between a State court and a Federal
court shall be settled by the Governor
and armed militia Of a State or by the
Supreme Court Of the United States.
The Constitution gives to North Caro-
lima the right to have its privileges af-
firmed and its jurisdiction determined
in that high Federal tribunal; and this
right is one Of the most precious Of
State rights.
Governor GLENN is now reported as
proposing to make use Of that right.
State rights are thereby asserted, not
violated. Both Federal and State au-
thorities act within their powers; and
the disposition of the controversy is an
example Of the orderly process Of gov
eminent under the Constitution.

The Ruts OF the Sea,

In the narrative Of the wreck OF the
Columbia in collision with the San Pedro
in a heavy fog on the Mendocino coast
Of California II lie said that the San Pedro
was of her course. In any fog on that
coast, and it is q foggy hole, any vessel
is certain to be of her course whether
she is high powered passenger liner or
creeping lumber drogher. II is Of i'll
repute a. a place for wrecks.
Nowhere else upon "a cast arc
there such conditions Of navigation as
complicate traffic along the California
shores between Cape Mendocino and
Point Conception, the six degrees OF
latitude along which lies the landfall
for vessels bound for the Golden Gate
from the open sea or which must be
skirted by vessels bound from that port
on coastwise voyages north or south.
The drift southwark OF the cold current
from Alaskan waters is the breeding
place Of fogs, usually 80 dense that the
landmarks Of the Coast Range SUBMITS
are seldom seer and far beyond the pene-
trating power of the strongest ray Of a
lighthouse. When the fog sets in along
that coast the canaan can do no more
than grope his way with ear intent on
every sound that may give warning Of his
danger. a O tricky guide in a fog.
On the Atlantic coast a fog wrapped
skipper need never be at a loss to know
just where he is, three casts Of the lead
will fix his place az surely on the chart
as though he were reading a signboard.
This safety comes from the great width
OF the continental shelf. which forms a
broad fringe marked by the hundred
fathom line from Fundy to the Florida
straits, and on this shelf the depth and
nature Of the bottom have been recorded.
But on the Pacific the continental shelf
is extremely narrow, particularly so i'm
mediately north and south Of San Fran
cisco Bay. Its narrowness Is still further
complicated by the existence Of many
submarine gorges which carry deep sea
soundings almost to the beach sands.
Many . vessel has gone upon tho beach
whose master brought forward his log
to show that he had bssn carrying oceanic
depths by lead hns until he found himself

disappearing Pulp Woods.

The Toronto Globe has-begun a cam.
paign for the conservation Of Canada's
spruce forests, which are the source Of a
large part Of the wood pulp used for paper
making In this country. In it's issue OF
July 81 the Globe says ed~itorially:
The spruce supply of the United states would
be completely exhausted In half q dozen years II
the rnsnufa cturcrs and users OF paper had TO de-
pend on II alone. They are now obtaining largo
quantities Of logs from Canada at great expense
and are thus rapidly depicting our pulp supplies.
A certain amount Of forest Is devastated every year
by nre. our own manufacturers consume a large
amount of pulp that In made into paper for Use in
Canada and a much larger amount for exports ton
TO other countries. The supply at present avail
able Is enormous. but The consumption ~ paper Ia
rspldly Increasing, while the supply Of wood Is
rapidly diminishing. IL is only a question OF time
when these two movements will result In a very
inconvenient II not disastrous scarcity"
A few years az, there was general
confidence in the ability Of our northern
border States TO furnish all the pulp wood
that this country would ever need. That
notion has been exploded. Our invasion
of Canada for the needed supply Ia caus-
ing grave apprehension in that country.
Wisconsin paper mills are buying pulp
wood in Quebec, 1900 miles away The
situation Ia a little better in northern
New York and northern New England,
but ever in those regions the end of u
supply ia Immediately before us. Real
izing this fact, n number Of our large
paper companies have bought extensive
tracts in Canada and are busily cutting
on them. One company owns about
5000 square miles and another owns
about 1900 square miles. There are
others with smaller holdings.
The point Of special importance ia not
so much the possibility that Canada
may impose an export duty on pulp
wood az the certainty that unless proper
steps are soon taken there must occur
an exhaustion Of spruce supplyin Canada
a. well as in this country. So far as
this country is concerned there is little
IL anything that the Federal Govern
ment can be asked TO do. The spruce
regions of Maine. New Hampshire, YER
mont, New York, Michigan, Wisconsin
and Minnesota are not a part Of the
national domain.
. The danger, grave and impending,
can be averted only by State or by un-
divided action, and only by the conserva-
ton Of the existing forests and an ex-
tensive planting with a view to the re-
mote future. Canada has much larger
powers Of restriction and may exercise
them. II she does, this country must
dance to the tune she pipes.

Could there be a more significant commeu-
tary upon the undesirability OF BRYAN as a

than this backhanded compliment OF BEN

the 6eSt FuPltS'
On a number of points all elephant
trainers agree. says Appeton's Mag
zine. These are first. that the tall,
fat legged, small eyed elephant of big
girth is not only the handsomest, but
also the most docile and intelligent of
his kind: second, that an elephant is
fully aware of his prodigious strength
compared with mans and that the rea
son an elephant obeys his master is
not because he is afraid of him, bu.
because he has an affection for him:
third. you may beat a bad elephant
to death or kill him by ramming red
hot irons down his throat in an effort
to press the ''squeal of surrender out
of him, but the one and only way to
train an elephant to perform tricks Is
through kindness and patience unend
ing; last. but not least, without ex-
ception the intelligence of the elephant
far exceeds that of any other animal.
Elephant trainers maintain that train
ing an elephant to perform is like
