Borne wtartlinc fact, according to the Brooklyn Standard, showing how our National resources are aquftndtvd were presented for puWIe consideration by Senator rpetv during th consider ation of the bill for establishing what Is known as the Appala1ilan Forest Reserve In the Senate. The bill was reported early In February from the Committee on Forest Rtwrvations and th Protection of Game, of which Mr. Depew I a member, and The project has found wide favor. Mr. Pepew de clared that 'the squandering of forest wealth in this country has continued too Ions unchecked." a?,d points out the fact.' not creditable to our foresight as a people, that the governments of h Old World realized hundreds of years ago that upor. their forests de pended their national prosperity, and protected their wooded tracts accord ingly. The bill under consideration pro poses to authorize the Department of Agriculture to purchase 4,000.000 acres of land Jn the Southern Appalachian Mountains, at a cost of $10,000,000, for making a government reservation like those In the West. The tract lies within seven States. Vlrvinia, West Virginia, North and South Carolina, Georgia, Alabama and Tennessee. It is about 150 miles long and of varying breadth. It is from 400 to 600 feet above the sea, and comprHes part of the richest agricultural country In the United States. It is a "museum" of forest growth, with 137 varieties of trees, all hard wood, and is the most interesting forest in the world, em bracing woods that can be grown in temperate, semi-tropical and tropical countries. The rich deep soil there has been forming for a thousand years or more and to use the Senator's simile, is like an enormous sponge, for absorbing, retaining and distributing the rain fall. To denude rtie soil of forests would change all this in five years" time and make the tract a bar- ! ren wate, because the soil would be j gradually washed away by ttw heavy rainfalls. The slojves of the moun- tains vary from 20 to 40 dc-grees. The j waters from them run on one side to the Atlantic and on the other to the Gulf of Mexico. The streams are the tributaries of seventeen important rivers, including the James, the Ca tawba, the Yadkin, the Tennessee, ajid the Chattahoochee. As to destruction by freshets, caused wholly by the deforesting of moun tains, Mr. Depew cites a case last swing Where rtie freshet on the Ca tawba, swent a way a million and a half dollars' worth of farm buildings and stock, the entire loss by freshets in Streams being $18,000,000. This work of preserving the forests must be done by the, general Govern ment, for since the tract covers many states, no tingle state can do 'it. New York hM spent much in protect in the Ilul-ton by purchasing lai'K? tracts In the Adirondack", and pro poses to add to the reserve. As to the Appalachian reserve, the Agricultural Deoartrnent estimates that within five years the forewt Will be self-su.-taining and after 'that a source of increase revenue for all time to come. The owners prefer to ell to the Govern ment for that reason, but lumber com panies are getlng hold of the bind at $1.50 and $2 an acre and stripping ott the timber. It 1h time this ort of work was stopped. PRESIDENT'S PLEA TO CONGRESS It but adds another laurel to his character by plainly demonstrating that justice and sound reasoning reigns supreme as the guiding star. Re gardless of Influence of Intercession he in his plea for Cuban reciprocity has acted the part of a man believing that to do so, can alone measure up to our National obligations to Cuba. Principal, not politic, duty not dele gate baa been Ms motto, regardless of whom it may offend. It It a simple, direct, yet forcible messagv, clear cut nnd strlcly to th poJn. After recalling his words of December lan, 1n which he pointed out to iNingresa that the I'nited States Is "bound by every consideration of honor and expediency to pans com mercial measures In th Interval of Cuba's material well being." and re inforcing his ow n declaration by some quotations from President MoKlnley's me(sagvs to tVngivss in 1SSS and ISJS, Mr. RooseveK communicates th fact that he has Just received an earnest appeal from President Palnra for "legislative relief before it Is too late and his country financially ruined." and then proceeds to state the reasons for reciprocity with Cuba with a vigor and cogency that, to an unprejudiced or disimeirvsted listener, would be speedily convincing. He first of nil declares away irrevant issues. While reciprocity may be more or less good in other Instances, in the case of Cu ba "it i a proposition which stands entirety alone." It has nothing what ever to do wtth ge: "-a tH'Tf revision the bugbear of the high protectionists nor with any other country. Then he takes up the objection, pr.!aWy false, but eertajuly hypocritical in the month of the fUvt Susrar Trust, thai the benefit of the proposed reduction would not go to the agricultural pro- ducer. but would insure to Ameri can sugar refiners, and. like the sen sible, honest man he Is, he effectually disposes of this by asking. Why not make provision against such possibili ties? "In my Judgement," says Mr Roosevelt, "provisions can and should be made which will guarantee us against this possibility, without having recourse to a mefisure of duidfui policy, such &s a bounty In the form of rebate." This completely answers the only valid or plau-'iMe argument against reciprocity. It Is not necessary to go into furth er details. The President maKts a final appeal for Justice to Cuba, for" the fulfillment of Implied promises and national obligations, for the obvious proposition that, having de prived the Cubans of their old mar ket and shut them out from commerci al treaties with the rest of the world, it is our duty to open up to them a new market in the I'nited Slates. He also shows that reciprocity will benefit American commerce as well as Cuba's, and sites the instance of Hawaii to prove it as well as to dispel the groundless fear that any of our own Industries will be hurt. "In my judge ment," says the President, "no Ameri can Industriy will be benefited by the proposed action. It Is to our advantage as a Nation that the growing Cuban market should be controlled by Ameri can producers.'" Thus it is an ap peal for the United States as well as fir Cuba that the President makes. The question now is, will Congress heed it? The answer is by no means certain, and Is Interpreted differently according to the points of view. The President's action tends to make Cu ban reciprocity a party m'-ajure, but it will require a majority vote In caucus to mak" that fact clear and officially binding. There are signs of a break in the beet wugar ranks, though some of the greedy, selfish gang are apparently as defiant as ever. If the insurgents continue in rebellion and divide the party, with the probable consequent result of losing the House of Representatives, the responsibility will be entirely theirs. Theodore Roosevelt has bravely performed his part. It is now "up to" Vingren and the people. The former may perhaps) fail hi Its duty, but the latter can be trusted to speak with no uncertain voice on next election day.

If : we define irluttonv a eatimr bevond the i boily's need of sustenance and" beyond the stomach's capacity for lUcsttoo and assimilation of food. That is a fair definition, and it fastens the name glut ton on many a person who would resent the terra as an insult The fact of this gluttony is marked by its consequences. The overloaded stomach becomes dis eased. The popular term for the condi tion is "weak" stomach. The "weak" stomach fails in furnishing adequate nu trition for the Irndy, and soon the "weak ness spreads from the stomach to other onf.uis. l)r.
