LINCOLN MEMORIAL ROAD.
Route Proposed by Representative
George A Pearre.

Congressman George A. Pearre will
and IN the movement to have the pro-
posed Lincoln Memorial Boulevard from
Washington, d. c., to Gettysburg. la,
run through Frederick. In a letter Col.
Pearre tates that he proposes at the
next session of Congress to introduce a
bill providing that the route of the road
if constructed, shall be from Washing
ton through part of the District of
Columbia and Montgomery county to
Rockville, thence through Gathers
burg, Germantown and Clarksburg.
IN Montgomery county; thence through
Urbana and Araby to the city of Fred
erick, in Frederick county; thence
through Creagerstown and Thurmont
to Emmittsburg, and thence to Gettys-
burg. Concerning this proposition, Col.
Pearre says:
Although this is not straight line,
yet it would run through Montgomery,
and Frederick counties into Pennsyl-
vania, oyer great part of the line on
which the Union soldiers marched and
fought during the civil war, in this
respec, unlike the Lafean route, not a
mile of which was covered by the
soldiers of the Union until Gettysburg

WIPIN6 OUT FORESTS.

Speaker CannOn's opposition to the
forest reserve bill in the last session
of congress is yielding results, as indi-
Gated by the recent announcement that
one of the largest bodies of virgin forest
in the eastern States is scheduled for de-
struction. This is set forth in the news
item announcing the sale by the Balti-
more and Ohio Railroad of 200. 600 acres
of hard wood timber land in West Vir-
GINA to company which will begin
operations. Another recent sale in that
section turned over 129. 600 acres.
The Pittsburg Dispatch of yesterday.
under the editorial caption, "Wiping
Out Forests" uses the above transac-
lions in the following comment:
The inevitable results. saws the
Dispatch, ''of transferring these 500
square miles Of forest to the ordinary
numbering enterprise is the complete
denudation of the forests region. This
is for the reason that the cash profits
are larger when a tract is cut straight
through and cleaned out by wholesale
than if only the fully matured trees
are selected and the partly grown trees
saved to weld a steady production of
lumber for the future American en-
terprise seeks the return in sight for
this generation. 1t may be that wise
notifications Of State tax laws could
be made to increase the inducements
for private owners to preserve forests.
But under existing conditions the pas
sage Of any timber tract into ownership
organized for profit means the destruc-
ton Of the forest.
The first fruit of Speaker Cannon's
opposition to forest reserve policy is.
therefore, the doom of forest region
as large as a good-sized county. the
wiping out of what might be a perpet-
ual natural resource, and by the loss
of the forest cover the accentuation Of
the changes from flood to low water in
the Ohio and its West Virginia trib-
utaries. Doubtless other forest regions
in the Appalachian slopes will go the
same way. But as the votes which
keep Speaker Cannon in Congress are
not affected by the loss he will proba-
view the results with philosophical com
placencY."

HURRAH EOR BILL

No one who knows anything worth
mentioning Of the gospel of what's
what needed any additional assurance.
1t WAS not intended as assurance.
Neither, we are persuaded, was it in
tended for publication, but only as a
private guarantee of good faith.
Nevertheless, since it has been printed
that the Republican nominee for presi-
dent of the United States checked the
reporters who We're handing him titles,
and told them to address him as Bill,
there Is great wave of content that
has week at Atlantic City simply fad
ed. Just call me Mr. Taft" said the
nominee, after he had been secretaried,
and governored and judged for a season,
land if you drop into colloquialism call
me Bill" This is getting right in
among the people and being one of
them, without frills or embroidery.
Bill it is Hurrah for Bill!
Some poet Of childhood it was who
wrote:
My mother calls me Willie.
My sisters call me VIII,
My father calls me William,
But the fellows call me Bill!
Being Bill was acceptance nto full
comradeship and more to a boy than his
first long pants. We won't try to saw
what might be suggested in one way or
another by either of the other diminu-
tives Of the name in full. but to be Bill
was to have arrived. To know that to
be Bill was promotion to the high level
of unsullied and unqualifi, d democracy
IN which there is no superior was to be
worthy, and to ia sc promotion in the
spirit in which it was conferret was
getting into a noble brotherhood with
both feet. The Hon. William H. Taft
has long been Bill to the American peo-
pie as a popular recognition Of him as
one of themselves and he answers to
the name as one raised on it.
With Bill on the White House lob the
plain people will know that one of them
selves is attending to their business
just like Teddy did, and that will be
like ready money to the whole nation.
Everyone can go right on attending to
business and leave the rest to Bill. 1t
will be like having one of the home folks
attending to the nations affairs.

CHANGE IN TACTICS.

At the time of the Denver convention
and Immediately thereafter the whole
declared purpose of Bryan and his i'm
mediate supporters was to make their
campaign in the States of the Middle
West. They We're turning their backs
upon the East.
1t was represented that such States
as Indiana, Illinois, Iowa, Wisconsin.
Minnesota and Kansas were so afiame
for Bryan that he would carry all of
them, though not one had voted for him
in either of his former campaigns. With
these States it was no trouble to calcu-
late that the United States farther
West would be swept into the Bryan
column, so that from Ohio to the Pacific
there would be a pretty solid body Of
electoral votes for the Democratic can
didate. This with the South would
make Eastern support unnecessary.
But there has been a change. An
Eastern man has been made chairman
of the National Committee, and BRYAN
program of Eastern invasion has been
announced within day or two. What
has caused this change in the plan of
battle? Has it been discovered that
the States of the Middle West cannot
be depended upon to sweep away from
the large Republican majorities thew
have been returning in the recent past
and give their electoral votes to the
Democratic nominee? That certainly
would be the discovery if proper inquiry
were made into conditions as they exist
today
Impartial reports from these States
the seven above named-do not put
any in doubt except Wisconsin. with a
suggestion of suspicion about Indiana
and in both these situation is due more
to local than general causes. They are
affected if at all, by conditions which
are not felt in the other States, and
there is after all very small reason to
believe that either will fail in the round
up to give its electoral vote to Judge
Taft.
The discovery of the Western situa-
ton and the shifting of the campaign
within month are not encouraging
signs in Bryan's cause. Anybody can
tell Mr.. Bryan that he has nothing to
hope for in the East: if he cannot get a
nearly solid West he is done for, and it
is very clear he knows he cannot get it.
