NOYES EVENING STAR bas a regular and permanent circulation in Washington three times larger than that ef any other paper tm the city. As a local NEWS paper and Advertising Medium tt bas ne competitor. Pibisaienietes kecmieneaesecnet weil Tux Stax bas heretofore epitomized the re- port of the Secretary of the Interior and com- mented on certain of its important features. One point deserves additional reference—the preservation of the forests on the federal do- main. Atteation bas before been called to the fact that the most valuxble timber on the public lands is being rapidly exbausted. The Secretary Gites the suggestion of the land commissioner's report that the provisions of a general law should be in the ling of the report mado on Senate bill No. 1304, to which reference was wade in the Secretary's last aununl report. It is well that the government is alive to this enb- Ject, vital to the welfare of the whole republic. ‘The waste of timber, the drying up of springs and rivers, the periubing of vegetation—these are the successive steps leading to the extime- tion of civilization im ali the countries that once flourished on the Euphrates, in the Syrian desert, on the southern shores of the Mediterranean. North Africa isa desert expanse ‘of sand, because in the long and terrible wars and persecutions following wars that swept over the ancient Libyan aud Cartbagenian ter- mitories the trees were cut down, the fine pri- ‘vate estates and public parks were leveled and, the moisture being dried up, the face of the country speedily underwent a change, becom- ing in the coe of a few generations uuin- babitaole. —_—_—__.+=——_——_ ‘The approaching conference im behalf of uni- versity extension. to be held in Philadelphia on the 29th instant, will have before it a number of topics conuected with or composing the main proposition. The whole matter in brief resolves itself mto two parts--the work and the workers. The work, practically speaking, is to make the «ystem of extension proposed permanent. the initial steps having already been taken National organization is neces- mry to consolidate the efforts and schieve- ments of the friend? of extension. The ques- tion who should engage in this work also arises at the outset. The answer is, obviousiy, mature men, whether connected mmediately or other- wise with universities and colleges. Of course jents and leading profeseors in such are expected to be prime movers and guiding spirits But there is no reason why it should be confined te such persons. The smail institutions as well as the more important ones should participate, for the purpose is to improve ail as far as possible. ‘The work can- not acceptably be performed, however, by undergraduates, to whom, on account of their eallowness, the public wil! not give heed. 2-2 Chile onght not to want more war imme diately but if she does she is in a fair way to get sufficrent to last all this century. To crush and rob Peru, to conquer and exterminate a faction at home may both be easy of accom- plishment, but they cost some money and sume Blood. The Chilean navy, the principal arm of ‘that republic, was somewhat in need of repairs and recruitment at the close of the recent civil struggle. The whole country was sadly in need of recureration and of the repose so nec- essary for recuperation after a devastating contest. But the Chileans, taking a wrong view of the action of this republic and giving way too far to their Araucanian temper and Span- ish supersensitive dignity, seem bent on insuit- ing the Uuited States and provoking our people into war. The Chilean government should ponder well the disproportion of numbers and Tesources and the cost of warfare with sucha power as the United States. If we were wan- tonly bruising the sensibilities of a brave, proud people, adding injury to insult, that people might well scorn to count numbers or dollars with us Butat is just the other The Chileans, spoiling apparently for a fight, are doing all they can by delaying justice and by setting watches on the American legation wo proveke this government into warlike meas- ures. Chile should be better advised. — Mr. M. M. Holland im a letter declining to serve on the committee to push before the dis- trict attorney the charges against Policeman Melien complains that Tux Stax places all the speakers at the recent colored meeting in the same category. Tur Stan has not intended to be unjustly indiscriminate in its condemna- tion. It eriticised the advice given by some of the speakers as criminal and mischief breeding. The others who participated in the meeting, in view of the fact that silence is often held to give consent, might well have openly protested against the inflammatory counsel, which they did not indorse. But Taz Stam has not consciously placed them upon the same footing with the speakers whose vtter- ances were specifically criticised. It most as- saredly would not find fault with the advocates of an appeal to the district attorney and grand jery. and of achange in the police appoint- ments law, when that is the policy which ithas indorsed as the sensible one to be pursued. ——_ + While Washington is so busy, oflicially speak- ing, in making history just now she is going to be busy on and after tomorrow for s few days in diseussing the history already made. Three historical societies wili meet here. The eighth annual session of the gmerican Historical Association brings s largo number of historians and investigators from all parts of the country and the program of their discussions, hereto- fore anounced iu Tur Stax, excvedingly appetizing to those fond of such studies.
