The Isle of Pines Again,

T twenty years ago that State
| Department arrived at an understanding
with Cuba whereby we were to relin-
quish &H claim to the Isle of Pines But
the treaty to that effect is not yet ratified
Twice it has been favorably reported by the
once in 1902, and again in 1922. Still the
issue hangs. Will it be settled once for all
at the forthcoming session of Congress
Those believing in Cubas right to the ter
ritory will press for that conclusion
There is an active if not numerous OBJ
position, however, prompted by American
settlers on the island who are eager for
annexation to the United States Whatever
of development and of progress has come to
pass in that adopted home Of theirs, is
owing almost entirely to their enterprise
and naturally, they wish to live under the
Stars and Stripes. But justice cannot vic d
to sentiment. Advocates of the treaty cite
among high authorities Mr. Elihu Root who
when he was Secretary of State declared :
cat the time OF the treaty Of peace which
ended the war between the United States
and Spain the Isle of Pines was and had
been for several centuries a part OF Cuba.
[ have doubt whatever that it continues
to be part Of Cuba and that it is not and
never has been territory of the United
States. This Is the view with which Presi-
dent Roosevelt authorized the pending
treaty and Mr. Hay signed it, and 1 expect
to urge its confirmation. Nor would the re-
lection of the pending treaty put an end to
the control of Cuba over the island A
treaty directly contrary to the one now pend
ing Gin 1905 and still pending) would be
slightest prospect of such treaty being
made. You may be quite sure that Cuba
will never consent to give up the Isle of
Pines and that the United States will never
try to compel her to give it up against her
will"
If these are the facts, and so good law
yer as Mr.. Root is not given to getting his
evidence twisted, it would seem that the
Senate should no longer defer favorable
action on matter in which our good neigh
Dor Cuba's interest is so vital

GLORY
By DR.. Frank Crane

NTHAT mankind wants most of all is
wv glory. 1t means the deed, the word,
or the state of being which shines
The real hell of men and women is dull
ness dryness humdrum.
The old painters put line Of light about
the heads of saints 1t was called a halo.
1t meant there was something in the nature
of these superior souls that shone.
Moses face shone when he came down
from Sinai; Jesus whole form shone on the
Mount of TRANSPORTATION, and there is a
legend of an Irish saint who when praying
in his lonely hut filled it so with light that
luminous rays were seen issuing from the
cracks of the wall. Buddhist lore is full of
shining ones
All this is expression of the deep CON
yiction of the race that the highest state Of
man is when he shines.
For this cause also anything that takes
one "out of himself has always been re-
garded by primitive peoples as something
supernatural. This is why the Greeks wor-
shipped Bacchus and imagined the toxic eff
feet of wine to be divine. And to this day
men go to the bottle to get that semblance
of uplift, to produce that illumination of the
senses. A slang phrase suggests the truth
I of the matter, when it is said of a drunken
man that he is "all lit up"
SO the savage tribes everywhere have
looked on insane persons as Gods own, as
sacred.
There Is great truth behind all these
groupings. 1t is that the spirit of man
Graves something that will make it glow.
What we ask Of you, poet is to give us
this. We care nothing about your word
Juggling. Give the luminous word.
What the child asks of the teacher is
this: not facts and precepts, but that some
thing that shall make the young mind burn.
What we ask OF the preacher and prophet
Is not instruction; we know deal now more
than we practice; but TO make our souls
burn within US by the way"

paber From Black Gum

THERE is interest and perhaps prophecy
In the fact that the programs of the
National Conference on the Utilization
Of Forest Products, recently held at Washing
ton were printed on paper made entirely from
black gum. "Nine-tenths of a cord of this
WOOD it was explained, produces one ton Of
paper" as compared with one and twotenths
of cord of spruce required to produce ton
by the usual processes. Similar satisfactory
results have been obtained with poplar and
birch, and experiments looking to the use of
asren, beech and tupelo gum and similar hard
woods are now under way"
ern swamps, Astounding in black gum and in
other of the woods here mentioned, may fur
nish a substitute for the fast-failng spruce
forests of the North as a source of paper pulp
All such possibilities, however, depend uEon
forest conservation. Georgia is rich in many
such resources; but what hope can there be of
realizing upon them if she continues having
twice as many forest fires as any other State
and yet takes no measures to prevent them or
to encourage land owners in the growth of
new timber? This is among the major ques-
tions awaiting an answer from the next Legis-
lature
