A CALIFORNIA SUGAR PINE.

WASHINGTON, Feb. Is, 1915. The
government has received $99. 40 in settle
ment for a single sugar pine tree which
was cut in trespass in the Stanislaus
National Forest, in California, and which
welded more than enough actual lumber
to build a good sized suburban frame
house. The tree scaled 10, 933 board feet
and was valued at $5.25 per thousand
feet. Not many trees contain enough
lumber to build two-foot board walk
early two miles long, and this is believ-
ed to be the first case on record in which
a single tree felled in National Forest
was valued at almost 500 on the stump,
although National Forest timber is fire.

The Government Ship Purchase Bill.

Opposition to the governments ship pur-
chase bill has become so general that
the proponents of this measure can no
longer doubt the unanimity of public
opinion against it. Not only the Cham
Der of Commerce in Boston and the Mer-
chants association in New York and
other commercial organizations in cities
along the Atlantic seaboard have con-
demned the measure as dangerous, i'm
practicable and expensive. but CONNER
cial bodies in the Far South, in the in
terror and in the West are equally strong
in their rejection of it as feasible pro-
gram for merchant marine rehabilitation.
The national chamber committee pro-
nounces the government ownership policy
upwise," ''un-American" and ''likely to
be more extravagant and expensive than
control"

we propose to see that this is done. The
time is coming. and it is not very far dis
.ant either, when the Mississippi Valley
will control the nation. When we set
out to improve and utilize our rivers, the
pert paragraphs perpetrated by the pro-
vincial- minded editors of the metropoli-
tan newspapers of the East, will have
about as much effect in stopping US as a
straw stack would in damming the Mis-
sissippi in time of flood"
Which goes to show that the Honor
able Champ Clark, who was once editor
of country weekly, has not lost the
ability to produce some pointed, pungent
and pertinent paragraphs himself.
