Logging operations have been prog

Operators are looking forward to at

Conservation of Natural Resources
md the New Nationalsm" issues still
under discussion in the United States,
have reached far advanced stages of

by the decision Of the Prussian Minis
ter of Commerce to turn over To the
Rheinisch- Westphalian Coal syndicate,

sale of all the coal produced by the
government mines i'm Westphalia. This
is a development scarcely conceivable
under American conceptions of these
policies. but quite in harmony with
German ideas of the proper relation of
the government TO great combina-
tons.
Under It's settled policy of public
utilization of natural resources. the

throttle industry at any future time by
controlling the fuel supply. authorized

partly east of the Rhine In the dis

Promoters Like LittIe Men.

The fact that promoters kept away
from matching the big fellows brought
about the downfall, of the white race in
the heavyweight class. There was no
object for the big boxers to train and
try and get to the front, and naturally
they kept out Of IL entirely. However.
since the defeat of James J Jeffries
by Jack Johnson. there has been a
renewal of interest among the big fell
lows and tournaments in parious parts
of the country are being held 10 bring
out new white hopes" II may be that
some of them are unfit to engage i'm Il
boxing match, but at the same time
il must be remembered that all the
stars come from just such tourna-
nlents. and IL will not be surprising
to find one white man among the lot
who will be able to lower the colors
OF Jack Johnson. They may call them
"dubs" and the like, but these same
"dubs" will improve AZ they so along
and he able To give good account OF
themselves later on. Practice makes
perfect. not only in sports. but i'm other
lines Of business. AMI that is what
the same heavyweights necd to brins
