OF Interest to Women,

Madame Schuman-Heink has taken
out her final naturalization papers
and thus becomes an American citi-
zen. Commenting on this the Chi
cage American says:
Eventually she may settle in Col
orado or in some other state where
her American citizen ship will be of
more political value to her than in
those states which have not as yet
done their full duty by American
womanhood."
IF it took the federation of wo-
mems clubs as long to elect a presi-
dent as it took the Kentucky legisla-
ture to elect a united States senator
the club women would deserve all
the mean things the newspapers have
said about them for the dast half
century," says Eliza Calvert Hall,
author of Aunt Jane OF Kentucky.
The New York newspapers have
been saying the headquarters re-

frage association in that city are

ters since 1890, first in Washington,

Trees from the United States. Eu-
rope. and Australia are being svs-
tcnaatically introduced in the native
forests of New Iceland. In the eli
mate Of that country trees from al
most any where will thrive, and this
fact is taken advantage of to plant
the most profitable species. Eleven
million larches, oaks, spruces, Doug
las frs and Eucalyptus have beer set
in plantations, and vast numbers of
seedlings are coming on in the nur-
series. These are rapidly growing
s%fecies which also make excellent
timber.
The reason given for introducing
foreign trees is that the native trees
o. NV leland are to slow in growth.
Some of them, as the kauri pine,
grew to gigantic size and produce eX-
celent timber, but it takes from
zoo years up 10 do so. Successful
forestry demands quicker returns.
More rapid changes in animal and
% COZ he life are taking place in

else IN the world. The native Poly
nesian is rapidly disappearing before
the European. The wild animals,
natives of the islands, mount to

wild. The streams are full Of Ameri-
can and European trout, which grow
to enormous size. The very forests

Zealand over thirty years ago, but
was abandoned after a few years.
The reason given for dropping it was
that it cost more than it was worth.
Aficr several years of exploitation,
it was generally conceded that the
abandonment of forestry by the gov.
eminent was a serious mistake, and
1t vas taken up again with renewed
energy. Nurseries and plantations
are being extended as rapidly as cir.
cumstances will allow. The yearly
timber cut of New Zealand is about
half billion feet, nearly the same
smcunt as the annual cut Of British

H WRONG A

In New York City a few days ago.
a mar whose mind was diseased by
anarchistic literature, and body
racked with physical suffering. be-
came the central figure of an Incl
dent that for a moment threatened
to assume the proportions OF the
memorable Haymarket disaster, but
fortunately the hand Of Providence
in%tervened and the bomb meant for
the destruction Of a squad of polite
men engaged in dispensing a mob,
exploded with results serious only
to the intending assassin and a com
panion.
Following closely on acts similar
in nature, the public is rapidly awak-
ening to the fact that drastic meas
ures must be taken and at once TO
stamp out the anarchial growth in
this country which from time to time
uncovers its ugly head and breathes
death to those unfortunate enough
to stand in its way at the particular
moment.
There can be nodoubt that there
are great industrial wrongs in this
country and IN other nations of the
earth, that conditions exist which
are not in keeping with civilization,
but the method Of reform adopted by
the bomb thrower is not the correct
one. Violence initiates against IA
ther than assists the cause of the
downtrodden and the more quickly
the lesson is learned, the more sim
pie 1t will be to solve the great prob
lens involved in the plans to work
out a satisfactory arrangement
Of wealth.
Prominent socialists throughout
the nation have been quick to de-
plore the attack, fully realizing that
by 1t their efforts In behalf of the
wage Garner and the unemployed
may be wrongfully charged with the
crime and the cause injured to that
extent.
Anarchy is not the means to the
end, and the fact must be pounded
home without further delay.
