TINE TO DROP DIFFERENCES.

Rarely is a great movement accom-
plished without opposition of some sort
Almost never is it possible to inaugu-
rate a great event without bringing out
a certain number of people who do not
agree with the idea. Not very often
are men elected to Office by unanimous
vote. So it was but natural that the
resolution to uphold President Wilson in
the use of force in Mexico should find
some opponents in the United States
Senate, from one reason or other. Those
opponents-or some of them, at least
stood courageously by their point of
view as was revealed in the notable
speeches made by Senators Lodge and
Root against the adoption of the resolu
ton recommended by the Senate COM
mittee on foreign relations; and those
men went down to defeat before an
overwhelming majority of votes and the
resolution of justification for the presi
dents acts is real part of the govern
ment of the United States It is to be
expected, therefore, that those senators
who opposed the resolution, as well as
those few representatives who were
loath to vote for it, will now turn to
with good will and stand by the presi-
dent of the United States in one of the
most crucial times developed in the re-
cent history of the United States. Their
judgment was outweighed by the judg
ment of a very large majority of men
who yield nothing to them in devotion
to country and whose opinions are as

Prevention at the Source.

The attempted assassination OF Mayor
Purroy Mitchell again emphasizes the
constant menace that hovers yer our
public men. At the time of similar
attempt upon his predecessor, the late
Mayor Gaynor, Chief William J. Flynn
of the United States secret service de-
clared that no public official who was
properly guarded could be shot except
from a distance Is this the solution?
To those who observe how freely our
public officials move about, their pro-
lection, even by the most efficient secret
service detachment, must always seem
inadequate. They would be the first to
protest against its rigorous watchful-
ness. They assume freely the risks at
tendant upon the office.
But do we handle the problem in Just
the right way? An army of secret
service men scarcely avail once the pull
let has sped. Prevention should lie else
where. New York has a Sullivan law,
which forbids the carrying of firearms
without a permit. Within three weeks
score of men in the metropolis have
been sentenced to prison and fined for
this offence But the law does not pro-
hibit. Nor will increasing the penalty
render it more effective. The restric-
ton should be applied "at the source"
1t should be less easy for every Tom
Dick and Harry to walk into a pawn
ship and purchase gun. And until some
such legislation is enacted, we shall con-
tinue to pay the prices in the sacrifice of
public oflicials-usually the ones we can
least spare.-Boston Herald.

PINE GROWTH IN NEW ZEALAND.
The Monterey Pine Most Valuable Tim
Der Growth in the Country.

Foresters in the United States are
much surprised by the statement in the
January issue of the Journal of Agri-
culture of New Zealand, just received
in this country, that Monterey pine lis
by far the most valuable and profitable
timber tree that can be planted" In New
Zealand.
This pine grows naturally in few
very restricted areas in southern Cali
fornia, principally in the neighborhooa
of Monterey bay, with one or two $50.
lated areas to the south and Santa Cata-
lima island. While foresters have known
that its growth is comparatively rapid,
the tree has been regarded as practically
valueless for timber, though it has peen
planted to serve as windbreak FOR
orange groves.
The reports of its behavior in New
Zealand, however seem to make fur.
Their investigation of its value in this
country well worth while. In view OF
the extraordinary rapid growth which
the tree has made in their country, New
Zealanders have given it the common
name of remarkable pine" and IRON
the figures reported by the New Zealand
department of agriculture, industry, and
commerce, this name seems to be well
merited. The claims for Monterey pine
are based on the phenomenal growth
which it has made in plantations and
the many uses to which the wood seems
adapted.
In one plantation, for example, in
which the trees varied from 26 to 70
years old, one tree gave yield OF l.
400 board feet of saw timber and the
average yield of the plantation was APP
proximately 100000 board feet for each
acre. White pine, the tree best adapt
ed to forest management in the north
eastern United States, will scarcely
yield more than 10000 board feet per
acre at this age. Loblolly pine, the
most pid-growing pine of the south
east, makes not more than 10000 board
feet per acre in equal length of time.
Another 27-year-old plantation of Mon
terey pine in New Zealand yielded 10000
board feet of saw timber and 60 cords of

TAKING COUNSEL WITH THE
pEOpT n

GEOILE.
In deciding to take counsel with the
rank and file of the party and perhaps
with some outside party, the Republican
state committee is making forward
step toward restoring itself more thor
oughly in the confidence of the people
than it has been during the past few
years There surely can be no harm
done by hearing the public's views re-
garding matters of the present day and
policies to be followed in treating with
those matters; and it is barely possible
that the state committee may gain some
really good ideas from hearing frank
discussion OF the situation. One of the
chief arguments advanced against the
Republican party, both state and ma
tional, is that it has gotten away from
the people and has lost some Of the
viewpoint essential to success through
knowledge of the substantial trend of
the times. And it must be admitted if
and the merely partial success of the
state organization is traeeable to that
fact, the situation is rather serious for
the party. 1t is left, therefore, for the
party to get back in touch with the
people, and the Republican organization
in Vermont is taking the wise course in
urging members Of the party to partici-
pate with the committee in the confer
ence to be held at Burlington on Tues
day, April 2S.

fire wood per acre, yet both of these
plantations were on pure sand not suit
able for farming purposes.
One Trees Growth.
An individual tree, only As years old,
was estimated to contain more than g.
900 board feet. Average white pine
trees of the same age in this country,
when grown in the forest, seldom CON
tain much more than l25 board feet,
so that the figures given in the New
Zealand report seem almost incredible.
1t is known, however, that certain trees,
outside of their native habitat, make re-
marable growth, particularly in their
earlier years, as has been strikIngly
shown in some of the Australian eu-
calyptus in California and in Brazil.
On the basis of the tremendous yields
of Monterey pine reported for New
Zealand, the author of the article in the
Journal OF Agriculture believes that
Monterey pine can be grown proftably
in that country on land worth upwards
of $50 an acre, even when there is a
comparatively high cost of planting.
Uses of the Wood.
In New Zealand the wood is said to
be used for practically all building pur
poses except flooring. 1t makes excel
lent lumber for boxes, fruit packing
cases, and for other similar purposes. It
is not durable in contract with the
ground or when exposed to the weather
implanted.
The behavior of this pine in New
Zealand has been so remarkable that the
forest service considers that further
investigation of its value in this coun-
try would be well worth while.
