Forests and the State.

(MantheSter N. II. piiloil|
4 recent decision by the supreme
court of Maine. as set forth IN anothcl
column, appears to have direct ana
very important bearing upon the quea-
ton of forest reservations. State con-
stitutirnS, here in the East, are pretty
much alike, ana if it is true that In
Maine the legislature can prohibit the
cutting of wood and timber without
compensation to the owner, it is prob
able that the same action can be taken
BY other legislatures. including that oi
New Hampshire. In such case, 1t IS
quite conceivable that in the event or
continued failure by congress to make
provision for Il reservation in the
" hitc mountains, the legislature may
decide that the public good requires
further deforestation be prevented IN
that region. obviously it would make
a material difference to the owners of
the forests whether they should sell
them to the United States government
ut a far price or their timber should be
kept standing by order of the state
without recOmpenSe to them.

"How Did it Happen?"

Out from the gloom that settled like

plaintive voice of William ]. Bryan
asking ''How did it happen?' The
great and verwhelp1ing fact of his de-

Commoner. who believed sincerely
that he would be elected. He cannot
understand why the American people
did not rally to his support, and in
Gazc he asks the pathetic question,

of Taft next March and it is expected
that it will be made one of the most
notable events of it's kind in our his

elaborate than it's predecessor. thanks
to the thrifty tendencies of the Wash
inGt onians who find in this quadrennial
ceremony Il financial opportunity too
glorious to be missed. The plans for
the coming Inauguration are leading to
the usual agitation for a change of the
date so that it will fall at more pleas
ant season of the year than early
spring. There is nothing new in this
agitation and the good reasons for the
change are unarswcrable. but it in

New England interests.

Governor Guild of Massachusetts did
Il good thing when he asked the other
New England governors to send dele
gates to IL meeting III Boston to con
slider matters concerning which the
northeastern states of the Union may
obtain the best results by acting in
concert Take the subject of good
roads. There is a growing sentiment
in favor of the construction OF state
highways, a work which has already
made rapid progress in Massachusetts,
Ii Maine ana her sister state OF New
Hampshire are to enter upon sucn an
undertaking, it goes without saying
that the New Hampshire highways
should be so laid out that they would
Join the Maine highways at the bordcr
line. This matter is of great lmpcr-
tance to Maine We believe that there
should he thoroughly modern and
well built road running from the south
ern extremity of the state through
the central portion into the great nor
thern section. The construction of such
a highway would be the work OF years
but once begun each year would sec
new sections added until the work was
completed. Thereafter the building Of
branch roads would naturally follow.
So the conference in Boston should be
productive Of good results in awaken
| ing interest in this matter and espeu-
| tally i'll pointing out the necessity for
cooperation among the states that the
| highway system of one may join nat

dering state or states.
| Another matter which the conference
| will consider equally important and
suggests equal cause for concerted ac-
ton. This is the protection and prop
agation of Holsters and other shell fish.
1t is being demonstrated largely

government, that the supply of Holsters
may he maintained by means of hatch
cries provided suitable protection is
given the fish through the operation OF
state laws. Obviously the laws of the
New England states should be framed

not be defeated by defects in the laws

These are but two of many topics

a Remarkable Woman Gone.

The world has lost one of it's most
remarkable women in the death of the
Dowager Empress of China. Rising
from the position OF a slave girl to the
royaI household at Pekin she has for
almost 50 years been the real ruler of
the vast Chinese Empire. To the
world at large she has been most
mysterious parsonage, even her name
itself being a matter of doubt and con-
troversy. and the frequent stories of
her death repeatedly arousins skepti-
csm as to the very existence OF Such
a parsonage. She has existed, how
ever. and at last there seems to be no

hands, leaves Il three -year-old boy on

empjrc are in the hands of minister's
and officials who are said to have a
firm grasp upon the situation and II"
revolution or outbreaks are expected.
As illustrating how far back in the
dark ages China still remains, 1t IS
related that both the Emperor and the
Dowagcr Empress died as they had
lived. without medical reilel OF

is Republican and will not make any
request for his extradition. Thus the
flop Of the two states leaves the exile
as safe as before. In the meantime the
Guebel affair is ancient history which
Kentucky is trying to forget. Caleb
Powers has been pardOned at last at

Kentucky justice. Nobody believes
that Taylor had any more to do with
the murder of Governor Goebel than
Powers did, and his life and liberty
ought to be as safe in one state as

Two New States?

1t Is said that in his coming message
to Congress President Roosevelt will
urge the admission of Arizona and
New Mexico as separate states. Chief
Justice Kent of Arizona, who, by the
way, is the son of Edward Kent who
was Governor of Maine in 1885 and lS41,
announces that he has received let
ter from the President in which this
promise is made, There is nothing
surprising in this, since both the Re-
publicans and Democrats in their ma
tional platforms declared for the adj
mission of these two territories.
1t was hoped that the two might he
united and admitted as a single state

if this is not done by Congress at its

sec their admission delayed until they

sion seems vitable neither political
party cares to make itself unpopular
