POLITICAL NOTES
WELCOME TO OSCAR UNDER
WOOD.

The presence of Oscar Underwood
has given a fresh impetus to the
Democratic Campaign. AS Chair
man of the Committee on Ways and
Means, and as leader in the great
fight for tariff reform, he has been
received by his fellow Democrats IN
a manner BETTING his station and
ability. Mr.. Underwood has not
come to this State to interfere in our
home affairs, or to tell US how to
conduct our government, or what
policies are the wisest to pursue. He
very properly leaves these vexed
questions to the candidates, who. if
elected. will be able to carry out the
reforms promised by their platforms.
No man in this country is better
capacitated to bring home to the
people the facts that lie at the base
of the great contest which was wag-
ed at the last Congress. and which
will continue to be waged for the
elfranchisement of the people from
the slavery of a prote ctive tariff.
He is not only great party leader.
but he is more than that, great
patriot, who has boldly stood for
what he believes is right. g>
1t is proper that Mr.. Underwood
should come to Kentucky at this
time to consult with his fellow. Dem
ocrats and to urge upon them the
importance of this years contest.
and its influence upon the Presiden-
al campaign of next year, when the
Democracy will have its first real
opportunity in many years to win a
national victory, Born in Kentucky,
and educated here, he has been made
to understand that he is one Of us:
that his visit is sort Of home-com
(: e that recalls old memories and
old friendships; that his advice in
this crisis is needed; and that his
masterful discussion of national poll
cies has not only added to the peo-
pes store Of knowledge. but has
given them a better appreciation of
the difficulties out Of which such
leaders as himself and Champ Clark
have led US.
Mr., Underwood's speeches have
d me world Of good. He has earn
ed the gratitude of every Democrat
ia Kentucky. No man has a bright
er future than he. end it may soon
come to pass that his promotion will
measure up to his desserts. which
are Of the highest.

enterprise, in the expectation Of
speedily lessening the burden of
taxation borne by its citizens, and,
possibly. of ultimately relieving
them of all tax levies for the sup
port of the city government.
As heritage from the days when
San Diego was a Mexican pueblo,
the city owns 1000 acres of land.
which, up to the present time. has
been unproductive.
On account of the rapid growth
for which the various species of
eucalypti are remarkable. and the
great value of the timber as a sub.
stitute for oak. hickory, and the
other common hardwoods, these are
the trees that are being most largely
planted. Forty thousand seedlings
of the sugar gum"-Eucaly plus
corynocalyx-were purchased from
nurserymen and set out in the spring
of the present year. The Federal
Bureau of Forestry, in official publi-
cations, discourages the expe ,tation
of extra ordinary profits from Euca-
u plus culture; but, on the other
hand. the pioneers in Eucalyptu
culture. who have been growing tim
Der for profit for a quarter of a CEN
fury or longer, exhibit statements
of their business that seem of more
practical value than any amount of
theorizing. One conservative state
ment is given by the owner Of a
large Eucalyptus grove planted more
than twenty-five years. He says
that he harvests annually timber to
the value of $3.50 from each acre, |
and that the timber remaining be |
comes of greater value each year, |
the natural growth of what is left |
more than C Jmpensating for what is
cut. Groves of this kind will con-
tinue productive forever, with no
of the annual harvest, |
young trees springing up from the
old stumps. or being replanted. so
that the stand Of timber is kept as
hsavy as the land is capable of sup
porting to the best advantage.
Let US grant the CONVENTIONAL
though advocates of Eucalyptus
culture will never do so-that San |
Diego can never approach the rec
ord referred to. Suppose that the
city forest, when rs years old, can
do only half as well, and can yield
only SITS worth of timber to the
acre. That means that the annual
harvest from its 1000 acres of pue
bio lands-if all is devoted to fores-
be 81, 225 900. Allowing
for all expenses, there will be left
a profit that should go far towards |
reducing the burden of taxation
