At the recent meeting of the American Forestry Atuoclatlon In Springfield, Mass., a letter was read frc-.n Hon. J. Sterling Moi'ton, secretary of agriculture, In which he explained that It seemed very Impor tant that the association should formulate nr.! commend 'to the various states a eyi'.e.-n regulating the clearing up of the debris and "slaiJh," as It Is called, after cutting large trees for timber. The de vastation of the woodlands by flres could be. avoided 'hereafter If each state would make It a penal offemre to leave the tops, branches, limbs and trunks of trees lying upon the groundi as kindling for Uhe great forest (Ires -which devastate the timber regions ot the country more or less each year. In tils opinion conflagrations ot this character are 'likely to continue until there are laws In regard to this matter. It Is also pointed out that the conserva tion of woodlands In each slate became more or 1cjs a necessity as each decade dhows more anvl more damage from heavy radnfalls on the one hand and long continued drouths on the other. It was added 'that It would be advisable, In oicdr to approximate the value and con dition of the 'woodlands within the boun daries of the natlonul forest reserves, that the geographk-a! survey and the division of forestry of the United States department of agriculture co-operato In mapping and determining the value ot such reserves. These operations, It Is be lieved, are already (authorized by law as part of the duty of the geographical sur vey. Experts from the forestry division of the United States department of agri culture, tt proper regulations are made for the purpose, might be detailed to each flelVl party of the geographical sur vey to examine the timber growth, re port upon Its condition and value In each locojlty, and obtain such other Informa tion as might be rhown upon printed g maps the kind of trees or shrubs, their value In each area, and the best manner of treating them. It was well said that the entire expeme of properly carrying on each work would bo relatively small compared with tho enormous vajuo ot the reservations themselves, and the re sult of Inestimable value to the pvoplo ot the United tSatej. NAVAL OONSTHUCTION. In' view of the fact that the contract for the construction of a government tor pedo boat may be awarded to a Puget Sound firm of marine builders, It might not be uninteresting to -note that thoro is a report In tho East to tho effect that Secretary Herbert will aslt congress at Its next sefion to provide for the con tructlon of two more battleships and six more torpedo txwts, Considering tWo time that has rlapac.1 f lnce modern naval construction began In this country, we have turned out a fairly gooj supply of unarmored cruisers, and when the 'three light gunboat now being built at Newport News1 and the additional six authorized by tho Fifty-third congress are finished, we shall have a gunboat fleet of fifteen vessels. The original plans of the naval author!- fl raw itemiDliati'd the construction of twelve lirwt-class armored1 battleships. There may be a question as to whet'lier all of them are an Immediate necemlty, but the gradual construction of tho num ber decided upon nwiy not be unwise At present we have tout six battleships Maine. Texas. Indiana, Musfaetiu- s.'tts, Iowa nmt Oregon, only the first two of which ore completed. Wllh our lomr Hue of sea coast and innumerable points widely eparatod, whore there la need for defense, twelve vessels of tho class named will probably not be con sidered excessive In number. As for the torpedo boats, the hornets of the sea, as they have been aptly termed, they ura cheap, easily and quickly constructed, and, ais they promise to play one of the most Important parts In the naval war fare of the ifuture, It Is not unlikely that our government will provide lUclt with a large and efficient fleet of them. M.. I !- Consul Claude Meeker sends the depart ment of State an interesting report on the recent astonishing rise In the price ot mohair, from Bradford. Kngland. where two-thtrdd of the mohair of the world Is manufactured Into weaving materlul. He say the price of the raw material has Increased from 21c to 64c per pound, and of the yarns from 4Sc to $1.03 per pound. One firm Is reported to have cleared JJ. 000,000 In the past five months, anj hali' a dozen others have done almost as well. The cause of the advance is the rettora tlon ot mohair and luster fabrics to popiu larity lant spring. In consrquonce of j this change in me i.iion uraar ru is enjoying"- prosperity that It haj not known fjr twenty-live years. Mr. Meek er says it is generally believed that the demand will continue for another season or two. Ho alio states that he ha re ! letters frcm the United St.ttes. I celv. and especially from the outh'weatern Istatw, vhere the Climate Is adapted to raisin Aturor goats, Indicating en in clination on the part of the people ot fhie country to embark in the production of the wool of these goats. He Is in clined to encourage the effort and in stances the success of South Africa in this Industry. The Turkish government prohibits the exportation of the Angora goat, but It Is understood the prohibition Is not strictly enforced. An unbiased statement of some of the evils attending our present school system printed In yesterday's Astorlan has call ed forth a great ideal favorable com ment from parents of school children, and a great deal of grumbling on the part of some of the school directors. We are alud that the matter has Interested the directors, even though It has struck thorn in an unpleasant way, for no body of men tihouCd study t'helr acts and the effect of them on the public hiore care fully than t'hoee Who have control of the school system of a city. The board, we understand, prides itself and it? acumen considerably In Introducing a "new and improved" system for school work, wlvlch makes several material alterations In the time talble, more particularly In the mat ter of recess and relaxation between les sons. The "Improved" system unfortu nately is a flat fall-are and the directors cannot be too quick to recognize this and revert to the old and far more eat Isfairtory method. Regarding the strict ures of some members of the board on the Astorlan's statements concerning the overflow building, we want to say that the condition is worse than has been described. Perched like a dilapidated dry goods box on shaky piles over a Dortion of the tide flats that receives, a great deal of the city's garbage on every ebb, it is, to put it mildly, hardly an Ideal structure for a- school house. Ali of the directors know this, though one or two hesitate to say so. The only sen sible way Is to get a new location for this overflow school. There are a dozen places available, and any one of them would be a great Improvement on the present arrangement. Nothing that n dangers the health of school children while carrying on their studies thould be allowed to exist for a moment after Its evil effects are discovered. The pension office states that the num ber of pensioners has fallen from 1.011, 701 In ISM to 987,815 in 189j. The official estimate is that in 1900 the figures will be 854,461, and five years later 701,413. The estimate of the pension appropriation In UKO Is 141,000,000 less than that of the present year. Th'ls prospective surplus Is viewed -with great satisfaction by the administration since Its failure to save money by suspending pensions 'In haste and searching for a cause of suspension at 'leisure. The Republican party win achieve a surplus toy another road long before the year 1905. THE PRiESI'DENTS RESPONSIBILITY". New York Tribune. There Is growing evidence that the aU mlnlfitratton 13 Bar loudly considering an other Issue of bonds. The Tribune ear nestly urges the president, for tho R.iko of the welfare and honor of our common country, to revise most carefully such Impressions as he may have formed, With all due respect for his opinions, It must be urg-'d thult a further Itsue of bonds does not at present nppear to be neces sary, or calculated to afford any perman ent benefit. The president well know that It will bo extremely unpopular wllh ai large portion of his political friends. Ho may rent ensured, that, for different reasons, It will be most c'ffenslve to Intelligent business men. It is not yet proved, to tho mlndi of such men, that a bond Ixsuo has any other n-eason or excuse than to force upon tho country continued endurance of a tariff which has by no ono been n.ore sternly denounced than by the presi dent who refused to slffii it, and which, by .falling to yield enough revenue, has afforded eonelUiCve reasons for lis modi fication which the president did not fore see. He cannot avoid welshing this later reason when congress assembles In De cember.' for the condition of tho treasury on'J the need of larger revenue will com pel 'that congress to place before him ocme plan for' relief. flut It would he Infinitely more worthy of his hlrfh trust and 'more creditable to him as a leader, to meet at once and voluntarily the coalitions he Will be obliged to meet next winter. Ho has power either to call congreij together, that It may provide relief without further borrowing of money, or by formal announcement to make It certain that he wl.! not seek by executive vclo to defeat such measures for rtl'ief aa may be judged necessary by a cc-Mijress fresh from the people. The president presumably thinks that the revenuo law which' ho refused to sign s'lioull not be essentially changed. Hut a lnrre majority of the people's repre sentatives, elected within the fast year, think otherwise. Thl. Is a government of '.he people, and n Virge measure of respect for thWr latest decision Is always becoming In the executive. Yet In this case a . far stronger reason for such re I'pect exists In (he fact that the country Is In a grave difficulty, from which It cannot be extricated except by legislation of some kind. It the congress recently elected Hionld pat. next winter measures which, In harmony with the latest elec tion, It Judges necessary for the relief of the nation, the president will have to take the rwponnlfolllty of nil disastrous conrequenccs If, resisting the latest ex pression by five people, he defeat those measures' by his veto. Serlous.y consid ering this, he must realize that he cannot afford to bring disaster hy refusing a romvdy, becuuse, though desired by the people, if Is not exactly the one he would halve preferred. The same tflflleulty attaches to a re fusal to ea'.C congress together. In order that some measure of relief, either by pome form of popular short-term loan or by Increasing revenue, may be de vised. The plain people are sure to say that Wis obsttnalie determination not to permit th recently elected representa tives to alter, criticise or investigate his policy had no higher than partisan or personal 'motives, and was, In fact, an effort to defeat the will of the people. It will even be supposed by many that his own relations with prominent stock operators and financiers and bankers In fluenced him more than any regard for the prosperity and honor of the country. Tie president simply cannot afford to In cur euch crlt'lolsm,at the same time tak ing aH the responsibility for consequences whlul may follow his refusal to submit the ca to congress. The president ought to understand that Mie underlying cause of acute disorder Is a general Impression that he wilt stubbornly refnw to yield In any re spect to the will of the peop'.e m ex prcif"ed by congrs; that congress will te entirely within Its right and even It duty tn refusing to permit one man to dictate lo lawmakers chosen by the whole people, and that thus tt will not be found possible to p-sss any adequate measure of relief. It Is not the prospect of one more borrowing that creates anxiety, but (he prospect that another, and then anoth,-, may follow, because of stubborn resistance to -meaeures which would stop borrowing and raise, adequate revenue. When business men look Intp all the contingencies which ehort crops, or possible reaction In Industries, or diffi culties about wages, may Involve within the next eighteen months. If tho will or the people Is thrust aside and all measures of relief are prevented, they do not enjoy the prospect that, In every form of trial, their Industries, their busi ness and their 'wages may depend upon two' or three Internationa! bankers. -The president alone hau power to stop this anxiety. He can call the people's representatives together, thjt they may propcae reme-y, but that would prob ab'y not be necessary to allay all serloun apprehensions, If t'Ho president would give the country formal notice that he wou'd rely upon patriotism and good sense of the people to enable the treas ury to get on without further borrow ing until congress meets, that if borrow ing should be necessary he would offer bonis dlrecMv 'to populnr bids, and that he Should uc n It his duty to approve sreh revenue m -.-"-"ires as a congress fre.-h frci.-n the people rn(ght see fit to pa CHIOAMIAIXJ.Y NATIONAL, PAllK. Chicago Tribune. , RerVire the autumn of 1861 the Confed had been routed at Gettysburg and Grant had captured Vleksburg with Its garrison of 30.000 men. The ono Con e.i,.rate force which had escaped defeit was the Army of the Tennessee, under Bragg, confronted ny tne Army oi me rnrrvherland tinder Rosecrar.s. The two days' battle at Chicamauga tvas a des nerate effort of Oragg to strike a decis ive blow, and Lee lent hla aid by send ing heavy reinforcements from the Army nf Virginia, unknown both to Meade and to Halleck. The latter was directing the Tlnlon armies from Washington. The Ktnrv of that desperate struggle of Sep tem'ber 19 and 20 between 65.000 Union and 73,000 Confederates Is now a matter of history and Its main details only need be retold. The first day's battle was a fight for position, the Confederates trying to head dff the Union forces 'from reaching Ohat- tunooeai. and the desperate efforts of t'rtat contest Tvas to turn Rosecrans" left and cut off communication with Chatta nooga, When the day's lighting ended the Confederates had made some ad vance upon the right and center, but Rosperams had he.d his position. Not withstanding' the. terrible onslaughts made upon his lines his men repulsed the attack. That night the union Hue was recon structed, and that same nlpht Longstreet arrived from Virginia with 10,000 fresh veteran troops from Lee's army and re ported to Bragg. The second day's battle was not for position. It was the last desperate at tempt to crush the Union Army of the Cumberland, and failed by reason of Thomas' stubborn, wonderful resistance with 40,000 men against 70,000 rebels. Early in the morning Breckinridge end CIriburn 'hurled themselves against the "Rock" and their divisions were so shat tered that they were not In serious fight Ung trim again 'that day. The tremendous pressure upon Thomas, however, necessl tated reinforcements. In sending those reinforcements, through confusion of or dcrs, a gap was left In the Union line. and into that gap Longstreet plunged with 20,000 Confederates under Hood. Tt was a stubborn fight, but it ended In shattering and forcing back part of the center and right of the Union army under MoCook. Thomas was Ignorant of the great disaster on tho right when Long- street turned and marched against him, but James A. Garfield foresaw the dan ger, made his memorable ride through Confederate bullets to Thomas, and warned him. Thomas fell back to Snod- grasj hill, at the base of missionary ridge, and took up a strong position, He was reinforced by Gordon Granger before Longstreet came up for his flna Charge, and 'then began one of the bloodiest contests of the whole war. "The ltock of Ohleamuuga" beat back assault after ansault, us he had done In the morning. After the battle closed for the night he withdrew his gallant rem nants of heroes to Chattanooga, which was held while the Union army was re inforced and rehabilitated for the re mainder of the campaign. That army had been saved from destruction by the immense fighting of the left wing. The Confederates 'were too badly used up and shattered to follow up any advan tage Which they had gained. The terrific character of the two days' fighting was shown by the official re ports, .setting forth that the number cf killed, wounded and missing on both sld -a amounted to one-third of all the troops engaged. Abrahami Lincoln, ?t a time when Chicamauga was regarded as a de feat, pronounced It a drawn battle after studying the Confederate reports. Con federate General D. H. Hill wrote: "The eclat of the Southern soldiers was never the s.n.ne U'-'ter Chleamuuga-. That bril liant dash which had distinguished the Southwestern Confederate was gone for ever. That barren victory sealed the fate of I'he Southern Confederacy." The rebels had found their blood match In the Western volunteers. It Is this great (battle which Was cele brated last week by Union and Confeder ate veterans alike, and most appropri ately no. as both displayed upon that blo-ody field the most heroic qualities of the American soldier. North and South can well afford to meet on the tame spot and Join hands In reconciliation. It h.iis 'been Bet apart as a national1 park, and the Northern and Southern states alike are .privileged to commemorate the courage of their troops with enduring memorial and to designate every detail of those two days' movements In such manner that the park will be a grand object lesson In the art of war the only complete object lesson of Its kind in the world. Every movement of troops, ev ery charge and counter charge, every as finlt and repulse, and all the details of tho wavering tides of battle have been mapped out. The veterans of both armies who met there la.-u week had no liltlleulty In recalling old associations. The veterans of Illinois have every lea son to visit tho old battlelleld with pride and eii'ihuslasm, It was a Western fight on the Union fide, and Illinois had twenty-thres regiments there. Her me morial stones wl'i dot the entire park, for 'Illinois had the greatest number of reirlmenta at Chicamauga, Mission Ridge, Lookout Mountain, Orchard Knob, Wau ha'kh'le, and Itrown's Ferry. Her troops were In the forefront of t'.l these bat tles. SAY PERRY PATETIC.
