In 1908 and 1907 Reported by U. S. For
est Service.

Washington, March 6.--The production
of more than 36,500,000 gallons Of tur
pentine and more than 100000 barrels
Of rosin, with valuation OF more thar
100000 for the turpentine and nearly
SIs.000,0o0 for the rosin. summarizes tn,
output Of the naval stores industry foI
1908, according 10 the preliminary re-
port OF the United States Forest Service
just completed. The study was provided
for in a special appropriation of $4,000
by Congress and the report contains the
most complete and accurate statistics
ever gathered for the naval stores in
dustry in this country and covers the
production for both 1907 and 1908, Civ.
ing comparative figures for the two
years.
OF the eight Southern states, each pro.
dueing more than 100000 gallons Of tur.
pentine and 10000 barrels Of rosin, Flor
ida leads thel ist with 1900, 800 gallons
Of turpentine in 1908 against l5572,7O
gallons in 1907, and l,932,ll4 barrels OF
rosin in 1908 against l,774,570 barrels
in 1907.
Georgia, Alabama, Mississippi, Louisi-
ana, North Carolina, South Carolina, and
Texas follow in the order named.
While the figures show an increase
Of 2.40S,200 gallons Of turpentine and
2Ss,962 barrels OF rosin for 1908 over
1907, there was marked decrease in the
value Of the product for 1908, as com.
pared with the preceding year This was
due TO the great decrease in the prevail
ing prices for turpentine for 1908 and
the slight decrease in the prevailing
prices for rosin during the same year.
The value Of the product for the two
years follows:
Turpentine, 1908, Sl4,ll2, 377.32; 1907,
SIS, 2s3, 20093; rosin, 1905, Sl77s3, 509.-
81; 1907, 1897 ,05o93; a difference In
the value OF the combined output OF 49,
7o4, 1929 in fayor Of 1907.
The figures used in determining the
value Of turpcntine and rosin for the two
years are based on the market quotations
at Savannah the recognized naval stores
market OF the United Stsets. The aver
age price received for turpentine manu-
featured In 1908 was S0.3s57 per gallon,
and in 1897 was s0.534s per gallon The
average price received for roin in 1908
was S4.A per barrel, and in 1907 was
A33 per Darrell.
The number OF operations for the two
years were distributed among the eight
states as follows:

The increase in production for 1908
over 1907 was due to more favorable
weather and labor conditions than to in
creased operations. But few operators
increased their operations, ewing to the

the time operations commenced. Figures
upon which the report Of production for
the two years is based were secured by

COST COUNTRY MUCH MONEY
That President Roosevelt Neglected
His Duty in Important Matter
Is Conceded.

The speech on the senate tariff bill
made by Mr.. Aldrich in behalf of the
Republican majority of the finance
committee makes very plain these
things: 4 ,5r2
During the Roosevelt administra-
ton there was not adequate supervis-
ion by the president of applications to
congress for money made by the young
men and old men in the several bu-
of the several departments.
They were e~Xtravagant and made
without due care Or regard for the
p%ecuniary condition of the govern
ment. 1t was Roosevelt's special duty
and business to examine each applica-
ton. He did not do it faithfully, or if
he did examine he was reckless and
misleading in that which he approved.
He probably had no time for the work
because Of his occupation in outdoor
performances, travelling, talking, writ
ing speeches and letters and denounc-
ing corporations and business men,.
Mr.. Aldrich also makes it plain that
Roosevelt did not enforce the revenue
laws Or levy and collect the Dingley.
tariff rates. The finance committee Of
the senate estimates that Roosevelt's
neglect cost the country a loss of Over
$4,000, 900 a year.
Roosevelt never made mention of his
defective revenue methods and of the
treasury neglect. He did not tell con-
gress or the country Of the losses to
the revenue by smugglers, makers of
false declarations of values and quaint
ties and inefficient customs officers.
He probably was ignorant thereof. He
did not point out that excessive tax
rates always stimulate the venal. He
said nothing of all those event mat.
tiers. He was too much occupied in
playing politics, making speeches,
travelling, causing panics, and doing
everything besides enforcing Pc
cuniary economy and the laws.
1t is to be hoped his successor will
take warning from the speech of MI.
Aldrich.

Live for Others.

A mothers greatness comes out
through her child's dependence on
her; the man finds himself as he finds
how others need him. New high re.
sources of fdealism and noble en-
deavor show themselves in us all un-
der the stress. of necessity's call when
great issues or events await our en-
deavors.
All the sacrifice, the heroism, the
devotion of the past have sprung from
this sense in men-that others needed
them. The best thing that can hap
pen to us might be some burden of
responsibility. To make our Lives
worth while, high and holy, to give

A~pocryphal Books.-2 Esdras, Chap
ter Z.
tCopyright, 1905. by the Author, W. s. Edson.)

Second Book OF Esdras.-In the English
version of the Apocrypha, and so called
by the author G. Esdras Id, is more
commonly known, according to the reck-
eonlng of the Latin version, as the fourth
book of Ezra. The original title, 1.-THE
Apocalypse of Ezra" is fer more appro-
pirate. The date OF the book is much dis
puted, varying from the period of the
time of Caesar down to about % b. c.,
while Gfrorer assigns the book to the
time OF Domitian. The original Apoca-
lypSe (3-14), consists of a series of an
gehc revelations and visions In which
Ezra is instructed in some of the great
mysteries of the moral world, and as
,sured of the final triumph of the right
eous The subject of the first revelation
(S-5:15), is the Observation-Disclosures of Gods
purposes. and the signs of the last age.
The second revelation (520-6:3D, carries
out this teaching yet further, and lays
open the gradual progress of the plan
OF Providence, and the nearness Of the
visitation before which evil must attain
its most terrible climax. The third reye-
lation (6:S5-9:25). answers the objections
which arise from the apparent narrow
ness of the limits within which the hope
or bleSSedneSS is confined, and describes
the coming of the Messiah and the last
scene of judgment. After this. follow
three visions. The first vision {9:26-10:59,
Is oI d woman tSion), IN deep SORROW, Ia
menting the death, upon his bridal day,
of her only son (the city built by Solo
mon), who had been born to her after
she had had no child for 30 years. Blu
while Ezra looked her face upon a sud-
den shined exceedingly" and 'the wom-
an appeared no more, but there was a
city builded." The second vision Q1, 12),
in a dream, is of an eagle (Rome) which
came up from the sea-" and spread her
wings over all the earth" The third
vision OBJ, in a dream, is of a man Mes
siah;. flying with the clouds of heaven"
against whom the nations of the earth
are gathered, till he destroys them with
the blast of his mouth and gathers to-
gether the lost tribes of Israel and offers
Sion, prepared and builded," to his peo-
pie. Chapter IA recounts an appearance
to Ezra of the Lord. who showed himself
to Moses in the bush.

Though Mr.. Carnegie has assured us
that the steel industry is old enough,
big enough and strong enough to take

vision of the Dingley rates. Instead of
passing rails to the free list or to a

ought to be for the relief CT the rail

THE STORY.

VETHY did God permit sin to come
w into the world?
This is an old question and has
troubled many an earnest seeker after
truth.
Esdras came face to face with the
vexatious question as he contemplated
the sin and woe of the people of Is
rael.
ooh, had it not been better n to
have given the earth unto Adam, or
else when it was gwen him, to have
restrained him from SHINING" thus
cried out the heart of the scribe as
he wandered under the stargemmed
canopy of the heavens as they
stretched over that great and wicked
city of Babylon. For what profit. is
it for men now in this present time to
live in heaviness," he continued, "and
after death to look for punishment?
o, thou Adam, what hast thou done?
Fol- though it was thou that sinned,
thou art not fallen alone, but we all
that come of thee. For what profit
is it unto us, If there De promised us
an immortal time, whereas we have
done the works that Lfing death? And
that there is promised us an eyerlast-
ing hope, whereas ourselves being
most wicked are made vain? And that
there are laid up for us dwellings of
health and safety, whereas we have
lived wickedly?"
THUS soliloduized Esdras,, ana even
while he spake the angel Uriel came
and answered his questionings, say
ing:
sThls is the condition of the battle.

earth shall fight: That, If ho be over

The man who has chosen the
goodness that is in Christ Jesus
is exalted to a higher place in
the kingdom of God than that
which the angels in heaven &C.
cupy, because the angels, not be-
ing subject to temptation, know
not the joy of victory.
Made a "littIe lower than the
angels" man rises through his
victories over sin to an exalted
place with Christ, of whom the
Scriptures say: He "being in the
form of God, thought it not rob-
berry to be equal with God; but
made himself Of no reputation,
and took upon MIN the form of a
servant, and was made in the
likeness Of men. And being
found in fashion as a man, he
humbIed himself, and became
obedient unto death, even the
death of the cross. Wherefore
God also hath highly exalted
him, and given him a name
which is above every name;
that at the name of Jesus
every knee should bow of things
in heaven and things in earth,
and things under the earth; and
that every tongue should confess
that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the
glory of God the Father"
Here then is the position of
the believer in Christ: "But
God, who is rich in mercy, for
his great love wherewith he
loved US, even when we were
dead in sins, hath q%uickened us
together with Christ (by grace
we are saved; and hath raised
us up together and made us sit
together in heavenly places in
Christ Jesus; that in the ages to
come he might shew forth the
exceeding riches of his grace in
his kindness toward US through
Christ Jesus"
