of this idea he calculated that If he
spent so much year his estate and
his life would expire together II hap

scented to himself in fancy and had

.TALLULAH FALLS
AS NATIONAL PARK
Should Be Included In Great
Reservation

Washington. D. c., March 23.-The
passage of the Weeks forest reserva-
ton bill, which will permit forest
tracts in the Appalachian Mountains to
be acquired end permanently set aside
under the control of the Federal Gov
eminent, is of especial interest to ey-
cry citizen OF the state of Georgia, as
it is expected that Tallulah Falls, in
Habersham county, will be included in
this tract which is to become Nation
al Forest.
There is no spot in the state more
picturesqueIy beautiful, and the fact
that these Falls were to be harnessed
for commercial purposes, despite the
vigorous protests of the citizens CT
the state, brought keen regret to low
ers Of the beautiful not only in Georgia,
but in the entire South The unequal
ed beauty of the Falls, often spoken 0f
as the Niagara of the South has con-
stituted one of the chief attractions Of
the state. annual ydraWing thousands
of visions from all sections of the
country, adding to the pleasure and
happiness of the citizens of Georgia,
and incidently augmenting the i'm
portance and prosperity of the country
section.
Tallulah Falls presents the most
magnificent natural scenery in the
state of Georgia. Through the noun
tain gorge the river forces its way,
with the tall cliffs on either side,
worn into grotesque shapes by the
action of the water, rising perpendic-
ular to height of 500 feet in some
places, until the rushing waters pour
themselves into the depths below, in a
series of cascades and vertical falls.
the greatest of which is so feet in
height, furnishing a picture of scenic
beauty which is without equal in the
world. Georgia is proud of this beauty
spot of nature and an indignant pro-
test was made against this dissertation
of Gods handiwork-for this it would
certainly be if the Falls were destroy
ed by diverting their water to turn
IpOwer wheels.
If the Falls were harnessed, the ac-
tual amount of water power available
would be but 5000 H. P according tc
the Government records. The state is
abundantly supplied with water power
Sor commercial enterprise, there being
100000 H P capable of development
in the state. For this reason the cit
liens of the state worked zealously tt
prevent this vandalism, which, after
all, would result in so little develop,
ment of horse power, and yet utterly
destroy this beautiful play ground o

the state.
The passage of the Weeks Bill,
therefore, was hailed with delight by
every citizen of Georgia, and of the
South generally, as it has for its pur-
pose the establishment of National
Parks in the Appalachian Mountains,
carrying with it an appropriation Of
$10,O0O,OOO and is committed to the
preservation of the forests, the water
sheds and the scenic beauty of the
Appalachian region. Yellowstone Park
has been preserved by the National
Government, for its scenic beauty, as 4
play ground for the West, and there IS
little doubt but that the Appalachian
Forest Commission will recommend
that Tallulah Falls become a National
Park and Play Gro--nd for the people
of the South.
