CoNFUsIoN AT THE CAPITAL.

The president S all but complete secluson IN
the white house has now lasted for several
months, and, so says DR.. Grayson, his personal
physician, the contemplated removal OF the ex-
ecutive to California for few months rest and
the transaction Of necessary public business
away from the turmoil of the capital has or ne
cessity been abandoned because of recent I'M
favorable developments in the case OF the dis
tinguishd patient. During the time OF the
presidents seclusion only two members OF his
cabinet have been permitted to sec him-Attor-
ney General Palmer and Secretary OF the Treas
ury Glass Secretary of State Lansing has not
seen him, nor Under Secretary Polk. Earl
GRAY, the British ambassador, who came to see
him was not allowed to do SO; and the president
has given no outward sign of interest IN any
thing that has happened in Paris since he lett.
A deplorable aspect of this prolonged and I'M
fortunate illness is the near approach to chaos
1t has brought in our international relations.
Our machinery Of diplomatic intercourse is just
about wrecked Eight or ten important posts
!are vacant and we are in imperfect touch with
foreign powers Our department Of state IS
Isimply marking time. The international labor
conference of last October lost most OF It's Sig
Inificance; and the pan-American financial con-
ference at Washington amounted to nothing.
The committee to establish financial dealing
with Mexico got nowhere; for Secretary Ian
sing had not the least idea what the administra-
ton policy toward Mexico was to be during the
coming year and had no way of finding out.

Flu and Hystcria.

Muscatine Journal: There is no
occasion for panic nor alarm on the
part of the public. In fact, the less
of this, the more security win be
enjoyed Worry and fear beget re
captivity. Coddling symptoms is one
Of the ways to get into the proper
state Of receptability. Forget the
flu and it likely win miss you.
The need OF an emergency hospital
is being debated in Muscatine be-
cause those who are in position to
aid the sick are afraid to do so. If
relatives and friends responded to
the aid of their Frustrated friends,
there would be little need for any
central agency for their care
The development Of a state OF
hysteria is tantamount to further
spread of the current maladies. The
best advice which can be offered to-
day is, Don't go F1uey."

BANKERS WILL

Next Week Thursday Is Time for
Meeting Of Group Eleven at Bur-
Iington and Big Program
is Being Planned.

Keokuk bankers who are going to
attend the meeting OF Group Eleven
at Burlington next Thursday, Feb. II,
will find plenty to interest and amuse
them during the day, in the program
that has been planned. The Hawk
Eye says:
The annual meeting Of Group
Eleven of the Iowa Bankers associa-
ton will be held in this city on Feb
ruary IL. AS previously stated, ex-
tensive plans are being made for the
meeting AS a rule these meetings
are held on the 22nd, but as that
falls on Sunday this year, the earlier
date was chosen. There being no
banks open on that date, Burlington
can expect to entertain representa-
tives of all the banks in the district
on that day, as they are all members
OF the association. This will be the
twenty-third annual meeting of the
association, and the hope of all is TO
make 1t one OF the most interesting
ever held.
The Hotel Burlington will be head
quarters, and visitors win register
there at 9 a. m. A bushes session
will be held Mt Library hall at 10

1t will prove an enjoyable event
Shortly after, the nominating com.
mittee will report and then there
will be a few hours given up To
amusement. There may be a few
four-minute TALKS by some of the
bankers, but there will be full atten-
ton given to a select program by the

famous as entertainers from coast to

district, that can furnish high-class
entertainment in addition to a real

will be furnished in the dining room

and evening.

A NATIONWIDE CALAMITY.

That Americans are protllgate In their use
I'll natural resources is once more proved by the
recently issued statement OF the committee for
the application OF forestry OF which Clifford Pm
chot is chairman In brief, the figures present
ed show that the consumption of forest products
is two and one-half times the growth and that
tive have less than half as many trees now
standing as would be required to produce timber
at the rate we are using it, and that there are
10 forests in the world from which we can i'm
port lumber enough of suitable kinds at reason
able prices to meet our needs.
The timber producing states no longer can
simply their own demands; within ten years the
!. bulk of the count1ys lumber will come from
the Pacific coast, and eastern buyers will pay
the freight on haus OF two or three thousand
miles In addition to the high prices of the pro
duct at the point of shipment. This review Of
the situation is discouraging enough, but as a
remedy is pointed out there is occasion for
taking it for granted that in a short time the
country must get along without wood.
There is no reason to dispute the statement
of the committee that eff cut-over lands, valu-
able mainly for forest growth but now barren
( and idle in the east, the lake states and the
south had been wisely handled, they would be
growing, each year. as much timber az they
produced in the year of their greatest yield, and
that timber would be available at half the pres
ent prices'' The problem is in the profitable
use Of the idle land devastated by the lumber
men who were too ignorant or careless to cut
only the mature trees and let the small ones
grow; it was so muh easier to destroy every
thing on the wooded area. Relief cannot be af
tforded by timber produced on public lands, for,

TODAY'S BIT OF VERSE
Sri. AGNE,s eve.

Deep ON the convent roof the SHOWS
Are sparkling to the moon;
My breath to heaven like vaEor goes:
May my soul follow soon!
The shadows of the convent towers
Slant down the snowy sward,
Still creeping with the creeping hours
That lead me to my Lord;
Make Thou my spirit pure and clear
As are the frosty skies,
Oh the first snowdrop of the year
That in my bosom lies.
AS these white robes solid and dark,
To yonGer shining ground;
As this pale tapers earthly spark,
TO yonder argent round.
So shows my soul before the Lamb
My spirit before thee;
So in mine earthly house l am
To that | hope to be,
Break Zip the heavens, O Lord! and far,
Thro ell yon starlight. keen,
Draw me, thy bride, slittering star,
In rainent white and clean.
He lifts me to the golden doors;
The flashes come and so;
All heaven bursts her starry floors,
And strows her lights below,
And deepcns on and up! the gates
Roll back, and far within
For me the Heavenly Bridegroom waits,
To make ME pure of sin.
The Sabbatlls of Eternity.
One Sabbath deep and wide

The Bridegroom with his bride.
