AMERICAN FORESTS.

The present high prices of lumber Of all kinds
are no doubt maintained to some extent by ben
efcent tariff and combinations of lumber men, but
the ever increasing demand and the rapidly decreas
ing sources of supply together form the more po-
tent reasons for this much-to be-regretted condi
ton. The forests of America were centuries in at
tanning the growth which greeted the white man
when he took possession few hundred years ago
| Large areas were ruthlessly shorn of their timber
in order to furnish tillable fields for the pioneers
in the central west. They did not even burn the
wood for useful purposes, but set fire to it to get
! it out of the way
The destruction Of the forests cannot be better
illustrated than by resume of the industry of
numbering in the different states. New York in
1850 was the greatest lumber producing state in
the United States but in the forty years up to 1890
it had dropped back to seventh place and since then
has become a state wherein numbering can hardly
be mentioned as a leading industry. Pennsylvania
which in the SOS first in numbering fell back
rapidly as other states increased their production
and her forests were cut down. and Michigan took
first place in 1870 and maintained that position for
twenty years when Wisconsin, whose vast lumber
resources were hardly touched at the outbreak of
the war of the rebellion, became the leader Now
Washington leads all the rest it having come from
practically non-producer thirty years ago. Thus
in less than sixty years has the lumber state of first
Importance moved from the Atlantic to the Pacific
coast the great forests of the middle west laid low
and practically no provision made to renew the sup
ply
The effects of thus despoing the face of nature
are many and varied, and may be seen in the eli
matte changes-the summer droughts the spring
foods and winter changeabeness-due in part to
the destruction of the forests the conservators of
the moisture of the earth.
The United States government has done great
and wise thing in setting aside vast tracts in the
hill countries for the preservation of the timber
on the sources of water supply While it is true
that much of the socalled timber in these reserves
is yalueless as a commercial product. the quaking
esp the scrub oak and the sagebrush in the high
mountain valleys afford protection for the snow
and ice which guarantees steady stream of spark
ling water throughout the summer. Without that
protection the lowlands would be devastated by early
summer floods, and the end of July would find our

CARDINAL GIBBONS AND THE CoNGo.

Cardinal Gibbons comes forward for fair play
to Belgium in to the declaration of the Rev.
II. Grattan Guinness of London, England, that his
Emlnence is the power which has prevented joint
action by England and the United States against
the alleged atrocities toward the natives by the
power first named Mr.. Guinness claims that Car
dinal Gibbons cannot know the truth on the ques-
ton. The Cardinal answers that he has excep-
tionally good means of knowing the truth through
his close relations with the Catholic missionaries
in the Congo. Says Cardinal Gibbons:
"There has been great amount of exaggera-
ton in those stories of maladministration The
King is wise as well as a humans ruler. and we
hear through missionary sources that whenever
of cruelty have occurred-as such things will
occur under every human gOvernment-the King
has been prompt to redress such abuses and to pun
ish the offenders. His recent DEGREES granting the
natives additional lands, and amehorating the cor
dition of the native laborer are added evidence Of
his desire to do everything possible for the good
of his native subjects. | understand that these
laws are now being put in operation rapidly
possible throughout the Congo state.
Il fear this agitation against King Leopold
administration is animated partly by religious jeal-
ousy and partly by commercial rivalry. 1t is to be
hoped that the individuals who are carving it on
will not be successful in their efforts to induce the
great powers of the earth to interfere in the affairs
of small nation. The Belgian nation Is small
nation, but the Belgians brave people, and as
indicated by the action of their Parliament Dec.
IA, they stand soHdly by their King in supporting
his African regime. In our schoolboy days the
most odous and contemplate creature we used TO
encounter was the bully who played the Uyrant
toward the weak. But still more intoerable is
bullying nation that picks a quarrel with feeble
nation with the base intent of selling her posses
sions, playing the role that King Ahab enacted
toward Naboth."
Cardinal Gibbons is acting his own initia
tive lover of justice without reference TO the
attitude of the American government though he
has no doubt that the American consul general
but recently arrived at the Congo will soon be in
a position to disprove the accusations against the
administration of King Leopold
The Cardinal, it should be needless to say has
no personal interest in the controversy but would
be equally ready to take up the same defense in
behalf of Holland, Sweden, Denmark or any other
of the weaker powers if circumstances demanded.
Plain secular Americans are somewhat susp-
cious of proposals for concerted action between
England and Ameriea-and on good general prir,-
cipies. In this especial case, is there anything
hoer or higher stake than the protection of the
Liverpool merchants and their rubber trade? Let
them take care of themselves 1t is none of our
business-The Pilot
