LIND AS AMBASSADOR DE FACTo TO
MEXICO.


Speaking of the appointment Of for
mer Governor Lind Of Minnesota to
act as ambassador de facto to Mexico,
the Chicago Tribune makes this ridi.
culous assertion:
The fact that Mr.. Lind was an
Original Bryan man" may have
weight with the secretary of state,
but It in no way qualities him to
act in the difficult and delicate
Office to which he has been assign
ed. Justice to Secretary Bryan
prompts the belief that he had
sounder grounds for his choice.
But the nation, in so critical a
juncture, would like to know what
they are.
II former Governor Lind were an
original Roosevelt man." the Tribune
would perhaps be prompted to accept
that as sufficient proof of qualifica-
ton for any task from the tanning of
a Mexican revolution to the slaughter,
single handed and alone, of all the
wild beasts in South Africa.
The Tribune says the fact that
Governor Lind was a Bryan advocate
"in no way qualities him" That it
stopped there and didn't declare that
it disqualified him was indeed gener-
Gus.
The fact that former Governor Lind
Is an Original Bryan man" will tend
to popularize his selection for this
diplomatic task. That gives proof of
earnest cooperation with the secre-
tary Of state, sincere sympathy with
President Wilson, desire TO do that
which the administration is seeking to
do-bring order out of chaos by ap.
peal to patriotic impulses and by di
recting the dynamic forces of public
sentiment to c situation brought about
by privilege, oppression and blood red
with revolution.
This is no time to criticize. Cover
nor Lind has been selected for this
delicate task. Back of him and the
administration there should be unit
ed public sentiment with no petty dis
plays OF political or party prejudice.

cautions which were adopted three of
the animals died. Gradually, however,
the enclosures in which the buffalo

FOREST NOTES

A Russian scientist claims to have
discovered an incubation for use
against forest insects.
There are nearly 5000 professional
foresters in Germany who are associ-
ated with various technical societies.
The University Of Washington has
secured the use Of two sections of
land in the SnOqualmie national for
est in connection with its forestry
courses.
A tool used to fight fires on the Cali
fornia forests combines a rake, spade
and hoe. 1t is compact, so that it can
be carried on horseback, and weighs
less than IL pounds.
In an increase IN timber sales this
year and in a decrease in receipts
from timber trespass as compared
with last year, national forest officers
see a growing use OF the forests and
respect for the federal forest policy.
