King Menelik has shown himself in
many other instances a liberal and

leading countries looking to an en-

with them. His country is provided
with no seaport, but it is to be con-

built by foreign capitalists, to whom
he has made concessions. Menelik

after a fierce struggle with opposing

The birthplace of James Buchanan;
the only President Pennsylvania has
given the Nation, has at last been
marked by monument.
1t was 116 years ago that James
Buchanan was born, near the village
of Flotz, in Franklin County, at a
place called Stony Batter. Before
the present monument was erected
there was nothing about the cabin, in
which the fifteenth President first
saw the light of day, to indicate that
it had once sheltered the only son
of this State who became the head
of the, Nation.
BY the will of Harriet Lane John
son, of Washington, D. c., niece of
President Buchanan and mistress of
the White House during her uncle's
term, sum of money was set aside
to erect marker at her uncle's birth
place. This monument has been
finished.
The marker is pyramidal in shape,
thirty-one feet high and thirty-eight

PORTLAND. Me, June 80. =

| PORTLAND, Me, June 80. -
In holding that the Legislature has
constitutional right to pass laws
Regulating the cutting OF timber on
private lands, ii the cutting is liable
to be detrimental to the public well
fare, the judges Of the Maine Su-
preme Court handled down an opin-
ion of great importance to the owners
OF forest land in that state, and OF
interest to land owners in all parts
OF the country,
The opinion refers particularly to
the cutting OF small timber which
should be left growing to give for
est cover which will conserve the
water and lessen flood ravages and
prevent or diminish soil erosion and
consequent filling up OF the rivers
and lakes. The judges specifically
state that regulations of that kind
cannot be construed as the taking Of
private property for public use, and
that the state need not pay for young
growth which it may forbid the own
er to cut.
This was not court decision, for
no case was before the court for re-
view, but a formal opinion prepared
at the request of the senate for the
guidance of the legislature in the en-
actment of laws to regulate forests
and protect the interests OF the pub.
Tic. Similar questions nave come up
in other states and may be expected
to come up in the future.
In the proposition which the Maine
senate submitted to the judges for
their opinion il was stipulated that a
law should not be enacted which
for agricultural, mining or manufact-
uring purposes, OF for building sites,
or pleasure grounds. The purpose is
to forbid the total strippin gof forest
land where a forest cover is neces-
sary to prevent the wash OF the soil,
the lessening of food ravages, and
the mitigation Of drought, and where
the public good requires that such
cover be preserved.
In submitting their opinion the
judges cited numerous examples Of
restraining property hold
ers from using their property in such
a way as to endanger the public well
fare. A man may not erect danger
Gus building on his city lot because
it would imperil or damage the prop
erty OF others. For the same reason,
a forest owner may be restrained
from denuding his hillsides to such
degree as to send down upon the
lands of his neighbor the soil wash |
to cover their meadows, choke their
streams, and injure them in their
rightful use and enjoyment OF prop
erty. 1t was declared that there is
nothing in the constitution of the
United States or in that of the state
Of Maine prohibiting the enforce
ment of forest law of that kind. :
