APPALACHIAN FOREST RE
SERVE MEASURE.

1t Is to be hoped that action Will be
taken in the House, and taken before
the session Is much older, on the Ap-
palachian forest reserrc measure. The
situation as to this bill Just now is
such that If it were passed by the
House at this time, there would be
real hope of getting it enacted into law
before the end of this Congress, next
March.
Representative John w. Weeks of
Massachusetts,, who is a stanch friend
OF the proposed legislation, has sue
ceeded in getting 1t favorably reported
from the House Committee on Agri-
culture. But unless a special order is
obtained for its consideration. 1t will
not be reached 1t practically rests
with the Rules Committee to say
whether the bill shall be given a
chance before the House this session.
If it passes then 1t will 60 to the Sen
ate and it may get through that body
In the short session.
This measure, despite its meritorious
nature, has suffered many vicissitudes.
Always, the lea iers in Congress have
found some WY to sidetrack it. Some
excuse has been found 10 delay it and
hold it back. On one occasion it pass
ed the House at the eleventh hour and
there was thus no time left to pass it
through the Senate before the end of
the Congress and the lapse of all pend
ing bills
Enough time is left this session to
put the bill through the House and
get it over TO the Senate so that that
body can act on it next winter. The
features Of the measure are well un-
deTstood. 1t proposes to create 4 vast
reserve IN the White mountains and in
the chains of the Appalachians, which
eeall constitute a perpetual breathing
place and recreation place for the
people of the Eastern and Southeastern
States, and which will conserve the
forests and water powers of a great
area. 1t Is one of the strongest of the
Pinchot measures and deserves prompt
passage.

Not a Gentleman

THERE are no gentlemen in the
Senate. That Is 10 say, there are
none in a parliamentary sense They
are all gentlemen in polite society, but
they must not be referred 10 as such
during the Senate proceedings
T. is perfectly proper in the House
Of Representatives TO refer TO an as
sociate on the floor as the Gentleman
from Maryland or Maine or Florida,
but TO speak of a Senator as the Gen
tleman from Tennessee OF Virginia or
Rhode Island would be an unpardon-
able breach Of Senatorial prophecies

GRADUATION DAY AND THE
DUTIES AHEAD.

The graduation pupils of the county
deserve, and viii receive, congratuia-
tons on a success that should be the
first of a series that should continue
through life. They have passed the
gateway and have entered the arena
where the real fights are to be fought
and won.
The mistake Of looking upon grad
uation as an end in itself instead of
as means to an end is mainly re-
sponsible for the adverse criticisms
thar have been cast upon the teaching
systems of the country. 1t is mis-
take to which the graduate is pardon
ably prone. He is apt to think that
he has finished the fight, whereas ne
has only been girded with the sword,
a sword honorably won, it is true, but
intended for service and ydlueless
without it.
1t is only character that can Use
education Alright, that can safely be
trusted with power There is no such
exquisite combination, nor one so ire
sistible, as character and knowledge,
but let it always be remembered th5s
character comes first and that snowl-
edge should be its handmaiden.
The world has got along for some
thousands of years without ,Huch
knowledge, but it could not have ex-
listed without character in its lea 1ers
and chiefs, and the whole of history
is proof of the supremacy and
dominance of character. 1t is for the
benefciaries of modern education to
show what they can do, not for them
selves but for the world, with the
added strength given by the polished
and precise weapons of intellectual
equipment.
There need be no doubt about the
future of the graduate who remembers
that he holds his education in trust for
the people who gave it TO him and who
Is resolved To repay that trust by
service and not by arrogance and self
insuffcieney. To a very real extent
the graduate Is the recipient of national
favors and the object of national
benevolence, seeing that the perfecting
of education is distinctively a national
policy The greater his educational
distinction the greater Is his debt.
The congratulations that are poured
out so ungrudgingly upon graduating
day are therefore largely anticipatOry.
They are in recognition of a great
national investment, but the returns
must depend upon the character of the
graduate. Much has been given to
him and much is expected OF him.

a CHINESE BOYCOTT AGAINST
AMERICAN GOODS.

The Chinese boycott against Ameri-
can goods and steamships has taken
tangible form. The japanese line from
San Francisco Is now receiving the
traffic that usually goes to American
ships, while merchants in China are
refusing the purchase goods manufac-
tured on this side of the Pacific.
1t is storm in tea cup, but it
might have been avoided The Chinese
in San Francisco object to the removal
OF the immigration shed from a spot
readily accessible to an island many
miles away and not easily reached by
friends, witnesses, and legal advisers
OF those who are detained. Their pro-
tests being answered only by prom
ises, they have resorted to a boycott
that is not insignificant if it helps to
stir up racial feeling.
The treatment of the Chinese in San
Francisco has left much to be desired
during the last thirty years, and IT
might be well for the Golden Gate tc
cultivate a little of the suavity that

SMILES RAISED AMID STORMS
IN CONGRESS.

There were smiles on the faces of
members of the House, it is reported,
when Chaplain Couden, the spiritual
director Of the love branch of Con-
gress, prayed for the alarmist and for
the real reformer. for the muckraker,
and for the true statesman, for the
-demagogue of the press" and for the
pure patriot the noble, generous,
high-minded preacher
Yet they cannot have been smiles of
ridicule. The subject is too serious.
Many Of these so-called muckrakers-
whom ex-President Roosevelt, himself
vigorous reformer in many direc-
lions, was one of the first to denounce
are capable men, and sincere and
patriotic And there are worthy alarm
lists on all sides, if we may call such
men worthy; men who say that the
country must go to the dogs unless
protection is strengthened or free TRACE
introduced, the navy enlarged or mill
tary defense brushed aside altogether
There are so many kinds and de-
grees of alarmists, Demagogues-
well, some Of the United States Sena-
tors would have the country believe
that demagogues rushed Dewey forth
to Manila and Shafter to Santiago in
1898, to relieve Cuba and the Philip
pines of the Spanish yoke Heaven
knows the poor islanders needed such
relief. It has remained for these pale
blooded Senators to remind us that
there were two sides to that contro-
versy.
1t takes all sorts of men to make a
nation and a Congress. The smiles
may have been caused by the discreet
manner in which the reverend coad-
jutor avoided any direct reference to
the terrible insurgents.
