Waste in numbering Southern APP
palachian Forests.

The forests of the Southern Appala-
chan Mountains have been cut so eager
ly for the valuable hardwoods they con-
tain that very little virgin timber is left
and about So per cent. of the area is
second growth.
The drain on these forests by many
industries is immense. The lumbermen
are going over the land for the third
time. First they took only the prime
oak and poplar saw timber. Next they
took the oaks that were suited for
barrel slaves. Now they are after
whatever merchantable trees are left.
such as birch, chestnut and gum.
Moreover, these forests have been,
and still are, logged very wastefully.
Nearly three-quarters of the timber cut
for ties is wasted. Double or even
treble the number of ties now cut could
readily be secured from the same area
without injury to the forest. By simply
taking all the suitable trees, 125 ties
could be cut from an acre which now
yields only GO, and if all of the wood in
the trees were fully utilized 10 addi-
tional ties per acre could be secured.
With mine timbers the story is the
same. Fully 40 per cent of the timber
handled in procuring them is entirely
wasted.
Finally, fires are injuring the produc-
tiveness of the Appalachian forests by
running over the ground and killing
young growth.
Circular 1l8, just published by the
Forest Service, discusses the whole
question of managing to better advant-
age the second growth forests of the
Appalachian region. This publication
can be obtained of the Forester at
Washington.

WANT ORDER REVOKED.

The country newspaper publishers of
the country haye taken up the cudgel
and are protesting vigorously against
recent order of the Post Office Depart
ment which they claim is a direct slap
at their business. Through their Sena-
tors and Congressman they are demand
ing its repeal and the result is a rush of
these officials to the Department en-
tering protests against the obnoxious
order and demanding its setting aside.
While Third Assistant Postmaster Cen
eral Lawshe claims that the order is
simply a good business proposition, it is
bound to work against the interests of
the country newspaper publisher.
Under the regulations of the Depart
ment prior to the issuance of the order
in question newspapers were carried
through the mails at the rate of one
cent per pound. The order of General
Lawshe, which we publish in full in
another column, prescribes a time limit
in which subscriber can receive his
paper at the one cent per pound rate,
and after that time if the publisher de-
sires to send the paper he must pay
postage at the rate of one cent per
paper, which would be an average adj
vance of 800 per cent. Gen. Lawshe
stands upon the principle that sub
scriber who does not pay is of no use to
the publisher. This is very true, but at
the same time the average country
publisher will consider his order i'll
advised and a blow at the root of a
struggling industry.

SMOKING W0MANLY BLOOM IS
LOST.

The thing seems to be spreading ike
a fad into all ranks.
Many women, proud Of their culture
and refinement, but pr5uder Of their
'1iberafty, " defiantly ask, well, what
of it? Hasn't q woman as much right
to smoke as a man? Ifiti sin or
vulgar habit-or a pleasurable yicel-is
it any worse for her than for him."
Perhaps the answer to all these ques-
tons is-no. Morally and officially con-
sidered,a woman doubtless has as much
right as man to smoke in public, if
her sense Of propriety and her tastes
permit her to do SO. If there is any
vice in 1t, any sin, the man cannot ex-
cuse himself of it / ecause he is born to
the masculine persuasion. No, woman
may smoke in public with the same
ethical, moral, and legal propriety, per-
haps, as man. But there are certain
consequences!
Nature has so constituted man of the
civilized world that he, of his own ac-
cord, has brought himself to look upon
woman as creature little higher than
angels. In the abstract ideal at least.
she is to him radiant, pure, and untaint-
ed by corrosive contact with certain of
humanity 5 weaknesses. To every man
filled with manhood's fine, honest senti-
ment living, breathing woman is the
embodiment of this ideal creature of his
fancy until she has shown herself to his
own eyes as something less. A glance
may suffice for this revelation-a ges-
ture even, or some more overt act.
Now, the sight of tobocco smoke
issuing from a woman's fair lips is
something incongrous with the mans
ideal woman. 1t is an incongruity that
shocks him. And no matter how much
he may applaud it as cute, as proper, or
as clever and right, a bit Of the fine
sentiment in him dies at the moment of
the birth of the smoke rings.
Woman may not believe it, but it is.
indeed, true that no woman ever pulled
cigarette without losing some part,
Just little perhaps, of her delicate
womanly bloom in the eyes of the loving
masculine admirer who sat applauding

discomfort, the short-sighted social
the harum-scarum spendthrift, what
there is left of the remnant of fragile
bearded populism, some well meaning
and conscientious Democrats, who are
sorry the party has wandered so long in
by and forbidden paths, and q few
politicians who think sooner or later
things must take a turn and it might be
this year, hence they stand by Bryan.
That is q motley crowd, but who says
we overdraw the picture? 1t seems
probable from the actions of some more
or less venal and thiclheaded labor
leaders that they will be silly enough to
wander off after strange gods and sup
port a candidate who never has done
anything but talk" for the laboring
man and who voted against his interests
when he was d member of Congress
years ago. Mr.. Bryan opposed the
policy Of protection under which the
American laboring man gets better
wages than the wage earners in any
other land. If labor organizations want
to follow such loud mouthed pretender
as Bryan in preference to their real
friends, the line of battle had Just as
well be drawn one time as another.
Labor organizations are all right when
correctly led and conseryatively run and
they do much good for the workingman,
but when leaders of questionable in
tegrity get hold OF the reins and run
the unions into politics then the good
accomplished by many years of effort is
placed in jeodardy. Such men cannot
run the politics nor the business of this
country. The business men of the land
won't stand for it and when the fact
becomes known that the malcontents
and discontents, the populsts, the So
cialists, and the ne'er do wells of every
sort are lending their aid to the Bryan
cause, the conservative, sane men of
both the Democratic and Republican
parties will rise in their might and
smite the rabble as they did in 1896
The wildeyed, ranting element will
never gain control in this country The
people are too intelligent for that and it
may take only one more drubbing of
William Jennings Bryan to prove that
fact to the satisfaction of his class of
Democrats. The time is fast coming
for a conflict of class against class,
section against section, with the Demo-
Gratis led by desperate third-time
runner, so it is no use to longer counsel
peace. Let US get ready for the fray.

LOST HAND IN ACCT
DENT ON A SAW MILL
Harry Paugh. Son Of Allen J. Pauqh.
Manned For Life.
SLIPPED AND FELL AGAINST SAW
An Extremely Unfortunate Mishap
Accident Occurred on Saw rIilI
Operated Near SilaS J. Beachv's
Residence in Bittinger District.

Last Frinay morning on the saw mill
operated near the home of Mr.. Sllas C.
Beachy, in Bittinger District, occurred
one Of those unfortunate and unforeseen
accidents with which saw milling at all
times is fraught, resulting in the MAIN
ing for life o, one of Garrett county's
best specimens of young manhood, the
victim being Mr.. Harry Paugh, aged
nineteen years, son of Mr.. Allen ].
Paugh, of near Thayerville.
From what can be learned concerning
the accident it appears that Mr.. Paugh
was employed in the capacity of off
bearer on the mill and was in the act of
carrying piece of lumber from the
saw when he slipped and throwing out
his right hand in an effort to catch him
self from falling to the floor of the mill
his hand came in contact with the re-
volving edging saw, severing it at the
wrist in the twinkling of an eye.
AS soon as was possible word was
telephoned to Oakland of the accident
and DR.. McComas summoned to render
surgical aid. The physician responded
and drove down to the mill where he
dressed the young mans arm.
