THE CONSERVATION CRAZE

For many years the natural resources
of this country were wasted in a most
shameful manner A few years ago
steps were taken to conserve what was
left for the benefit of future genera
tions, since which time the movement
has assumed proportions that seem to
bid fair to deprive the living genera
tion Of all benefits Of the nations pub
lie domain.
In a recent issue the San Francisco
Chronicle has the following to say on
the subject:
The professional conservations have
for the time being got the ear of so
many people that any project bearing
the conservation label is very sure to
be received with tumultuous applause
in any popular assembly without wait
ing to consider whether the proposal
really tends to conserve or not. And
to a great extent that is reflected in
the popular branch of congress, pre-
sumably in the conviction that every
vote for alleged Conservation mean
votes for sending the member back to
the seat which he adorns.
So enthusiastic are these people
that the dispatches seem to indicate
a majority of the house of representa-
tives will insist on granting to the
Immigrant railroads and other estab-
lished proprietors a monopoly of the
oil underlying public lands, for no 9th
er reason than that the proposition
bears the conservation label. In oil.
bearing territory in which alternate
sections are owned by railroads, and
where much of the public land has al
ready gone to patent, to forbid further
development on land remaining to the
public is about as far as absurdity can
go. 1t is a direct invitation quite Ger
tain to be accepted by the railroads
and other private owners to pump out
all the oil in the territory and leave
barren ground for "the coming gene
~rations.o
1t does not pay the country and it
is not conservation to hamper or bur
den the development of any form of
mineral wealth. Prospecting is cost
ly and the results uncertain. Even on
proven ground in oil territory it
is not every well that yields a profit
especially if pumps have been running
for some years in the next lot. 1t is
to the public interest and in the line OF
true conservation to encourage pros
pectors by the possibility of greaf
wealth. There will be no probability
Of it. The number Of those who secure
it in that way is very small. To ham
per prospecting and limit it's reward
may lead to the waste of u~ndreamed-o
treasures which are never discovere,
because there is no inducement to tax,
the risk Of prospecting. All reason
able people favor true conservation
for the benefit OF this and succeedin,
generations, but it is not presumptfv
evidence of indifference or greed i
n refuses to accept as real conserva
tion every proposal labeled as such b.
professors of that cult. Many of thei
proposals lead not to saving but. t,
waste.

For the engaged young to submit in peace may be
law, but it is not human nature.
He is apt to regard his dimes spent for ice and
his dollars spent for drives tangible investment which
he endangered and feels called upon to defend.
As the Ohio judge says the law gives him redress;
he is forced to rely upon his charms with the girl

fists effective than his charms.
Resort to violence may be morally wrong we'll

If all such young to sit still while other young

long until engagement would be held lightly

IF the engaged girl has the right to accept heattentons

Of course the complications may be smpfed at any

Tough joint" he muttered, fall
ing into his old habit of conmun-
ing with himself. Hope they make
good tea"
At the sound of his footsteps on
the stair the playing of the piano
ceased. He was surprised at what
greeted him above. In startling
contrast to the loathsome environ
ment below he entered luxurious
ly appointed room, heavily hung
with oriental tapestries, and with
half a dozen onyx tables partially
concealed behind screens and gOr-
geously embroidered silk curtains.
At one of these he seated himself
and signaled for service with the
tiny bell near his hand. In response
there appeared a young Chinaman
with close-cropped hair and attired
| in evening dress.
"A pot of tea" ordered Rowland;
and under his breath he added:

ness town! | wonder"
He looked about him curiously.
Although it was only II o'clock, the
place appeared to be empty. Yet
Rowland was reasonably assured
that it was not empty. He was
conscious of sensing in a vague
sort of way the presence of others
somewhere near him. He was sure
that there was a faint, acrid odor
lurking above that of burned IN
cense, and he shrugged his should
ers with conviction when he paid
dollar for his pot of tea.
Opium, as sure as your name Is
Jack Rowland" he said, when the
waiter was gone. 81 wonder again
how many pots of tea do they
sell in a night?"
He slipped his own leisurely. lis
tening with all the eagerness or the
new sense of freedom which had
taken possession of him. The
Chinaman had scarcely disappeared
when he heard footsteps on the
stair. In another instant a low
word of surprise almost leaped
from his lips. Hesitating for mo-
ment in the doorway, her face star
ing straight into his own, was the
girl whom he had seen through the
hotel window!
For perhaps no more than five
seconds their eyes met. Yet IN
that time there was painted on his
memory q picture that Howland
knew he would never forget. His
was a nature, because OF the am
bition imposed OH it, that had never
taken more than casual interest
in the form and feature of women.
He had looked on beautiful faces
and had admired them In a cool,
dispassionate way, judging them
when he judged at alias he might
have judged the more material
workmanship of his own hands. But
this face that was framed for
few brief moments In the door
reached out to him and stirred an
interest within him which was as.
new as 1t was pleasurable. 1t was
a beautiful face. He knew that In
fraction of the first second. 1t
was not white, as he had first seen
Ii through the window. The girls
cheeks were flushed. Her lips were
parted, ard she was breathing
quickly, as though from the effect
of climbing the stair. But 1t was
her eyes that sent Howland's blood
a little faster through his veins.
They were glorious eyes.
The girl turned from his gaze
and seated herself at table SO
that he caught only her profile.
The change delighted him. 1t afj

in the doorway, and he could study
it without being observed in the
act, though he was confident that
the girl knew his eyes were on her.
He refilled his tiny cup with tea
and smiled when he noticed that
she could easily have seated her.
self behind one of the screens
From the flush in her cheeks his
eyes travelled critically to the rich
glow of the light in her shining
brown hair, which swept half over
her ears in thick, soft waves
caught in heavy coil low on her
neck. Then, for the first time, he
, noticed her dress. 1t puzzled him
Her turban and muff were of deep
gray lynx fur. Around her shOld
ders was collarette of the same
material. Her hands were immac'
ulately gloved. In every feature OF
her lovely face, in every point OF
her dress, she bore the indisputable
mark of refinement. The quizzical
smile left his lips. The thoughts
which at first had filled his mind
as quickly disappeared. Who was
she? Why was she here?
With cat-like quletness the young
Chinaman entered between sthe
screens and stood beside her. On
small tablet which Rowland had
not before observed she wrote her
order. 1t was for tea. He noticed
that she gave the waiter a dollar
bill in payment and that the China
man returned rs cents to her in
change.
Discrimination" he chuckled to
himself. Proof that she's not a
stranger here, and knows the price
of things"
He poured his last half cup of
tea and when he lifted his eyes he
was surprised to find that the girl
was looking at him. For brief In
terval her gaze was steady and
clear; then the flush deepened In
her cheeks; her long lashes
dropped as the cold gray of How
lands eyes met hers in unflinching
challenge, and she turned to her
tea. Rowland noted that the hand
which lifted the little Japanese pot
was trembling slightly. He leaned
forward, and as II impelled by the
movement, the girl turned her face
to him again, the tea-urn poised
above her cup. In her dark ayes
was an expression which h3lf
brought him to his feet, wfstfui
glow, pathetic and yet half
