Forestry resolution adopted
by the Western Pomona Grange
at he meeting held in Toma-
hawk Lake, Nov. IL:
Whereas, the State of Wisconsin,
through the advice Of the State For
ester, has we'll defined forest polie y
which is to set aside 800, 600 acres
in Oneida, Villas, Forest, Iron and
Price counties for forest and park
purposes, and whereas, for the accom-
pishment Of this purpose misleading
statements have been published re-
garding the non-agricultural charac-
ter Of this land; therefore, De 1t
Resolved, that while we approve OF
forestry being practiced by the state
a. wise and beniticent policy, we
however, believe in a state wide Tor
est policy rather than a sectional one;
that we look with disfavor upon the
policy of taking approximately 1000
900 acres OF land III a solid block IN
the above named counties, for forest
and park purposes. And be it further
Resolved, that we severely censure
the state Forester aud the entire
Board Of Forestry for the erroneous
aud misleading statements that have
been published as to the non >agricui
tural land in the proposed forest re-
serve area; these statements being
calculated to retard and ultimately
defect the settlement OF this section OF
the state.
Resolved. that we request the State
Boerd of Forestry to adopt different
policy and limit the forest reserve to
such lands as practical men pronounce
unfit for agricultural purposes ana
extend the forest areas to lands OF a
non-agricultural character throughout
| the state.

Cypress Roots Found Below Sea Level.

Fragments of cypress roots that were found 1S3 feet below the surface by Hardacre X Whet- sone, who are drilling a well near Ryan, were brought here Satur. day. The wood appears to be fairly well preserved and shows plainly that it is cypress. It was imbedded in a mass of stiff blue clay through which the drill passed. The depth at which it was found is about IS feet below sea level, so it is conjectured that the tree from which it was taken was washed down from some point inland at a time when the region now occupied by Grand Prairie was still covered by the shallow waters of the gulf, which may have been ages ago Stuttgart Free Press.

A GOOD ADVERTISEMENT

In our opinion a good band is one of the very best advertise ments city can have. Quite a number of our boys have organ ized themselves into class and have secured the services of Prot. Dwight Blake to teach them how to make music. Prof. Blake is known all over the south as one of the best band masters in the United States, so, under his di- rection our boys cannot fail to make good musicians. Now, what we are driving at is this i; In order for a city to have a good band the City must give the band-boys some support. Why not encourage these boys by permitting them to give band concerts in the city park during the summer months when they become proficient enough to play good, and the business men of our city subscribe something to ward their expenses Hope has a good band, so has Philadelphia and in fact every other place in Arkansas which claims to be a city. What is the matter with Prescott? Is she a city in name only? We don't believe that our wide-awake business men will overlook this matter.

Such an Obvious Solution.

After Cave Johnson had served his long and brilliant career in congress and had retired to the quiet private life, he once stepped into the office of his nephew, Robert Johnson, then a young lawyer of much promise. and finding the young man engaged in writing with gold pen. had occasion to remark upon the extravagance of the rising generation
 Why is it, said he, that every young man now has his gold pen. while those of my day were content to use their goosequills?
 T suppose" replied Robert in the most innocent manner possible. '1t is because there were more geese when you were young man."

WELL TO GO SLOW
Evil of flasty Legislation Has
Been Proved.
Especially on the Matter Of currenc,
ls the Utmost Care Advisable
Matter of Vital interest to
the Country.

Senators seeking safe and work
able currency scheme and unwilling
to be hurried in their labors should
take note of and be instructed by the
fate of the ship bonus clause Of the
Underwood tariff law.
That clause was adopted by the
house In the haste that marked the
passage OF the bill through that body.
Apparently the majority did not
know. or sufficiently consider, what
the effect of the provision would be.
The object was to encourage Ameri-
can shipping, now. and for long Ian
gushing.
Later, 1t was discovered that the
provision would violate treaties be-
tween this country and nearly all the
leading foreign countries. Several OF
those countries promptly protested.
and their protests were taken into
consideration.
In response, proviso was adopted
excepting the importations from all
treaty countries from the operation
of the bonus. The correction looked
simple, and was concurred In by dis.
tinguished lawyers in both houses OF
congress and by the president.
Now the attorney general decides
that the correction nullifies the pro-
vision, and SO the whole thing goes
by the board. The matter may be
taken into court, and costly litigation
be the result,
There are two warnings in this.
First, against haste. II the house
had taken more time for investiga,
tion-or rather had made an investi-
cation of the subject-the blunder
might have been avoided. Either the
provision would have been omitted.
or else put. II possible. into accept
able shape.
The second warning is against indi-
rection. Everybody sees that Ameri-
can shipping should be revived. and
everybody wants 1t revived 1t II
equally plain that revival will re-
quire government assistance OF some
kind. But there is popular pref
udice against the word subsidy" and

And then the Democrats shy at the
word protection" They want mer-
chant marine, but not as the result OF
legislation clearly according TO the
strict meaning OF protection, They
have seen American manufacturing
promoted by that policy, and Ameri'
can railroads built by II. but they
have inveighed against 1t so long they
fear the charge of inconsistency as
respects the merchant marine.
In the matter OF the currency--s
most delicate matter-let everything
be done with deliberation and the
utmost care. SO that no clash or crash
may follow. The Glass bill as II
