Nor do I know when the time will came when I can. I have thought It unakind to say any thing to him about the matter and that any mention of it now by anyonq would be a needless annoyance." Secretary Lane's admirers-and their name Is" legion-have often said that if he had been born in 1867 in stead of 1864 they would not have to speak of him as "Mr. Presidential Im possiblity " The point is that he was born in Prince ddward Island and was. taken to Clilfornat at the age of three by his father.

DISPOSED TO GET TOGETHER :1 ON RATIFICATION. i,", tl PLAN THROUGH THE HOLIDAYS t; Knox Resolution for Separate Peace '" Considered a Last Resort-Modified 1 Lodge Reservations Are Gaining' More Supporters. By JAMI:S P. HORNADAY. WVahington.-The traut3y of pe:lce withl Gernniay willi have its last .lchali'Ice ill the United States senate soon aftter January 5, tl.e date onil which ctligre'-s will reassemble. A goodly number of senators havIte remained here huring ll the conlgres.sional recess for the ex press Ipurpose of trying to arrive at all agreenment uinder which the treaty cilln be ratitied. lRepresentatives of the t several groups Into which the senate v divided on the treaty are partcllpating I in the informal conferences that are ' being held. No one, however well in formed, would undertake to say at this time what the outcome of this fntil l effort to pave the way for ratification r will be. All that can be said with I certainty is that senators representing t each of the political groups are show- r ing a disposition to forget what has r gone before and to get together on a ratification resolution. The senate will reconvene with the ' resolution offeredl by Senator Knox for a separate peace with Germany on the calendar subject to action at any time. This is a joint resolution, which mens that to be adopted It would have to - receive a majority vote in both senate I and house, and having received such r a vote it would go to the president for I L his signature. In answering a question submitted to him by Senator Fall more than two months ago, President Wil son said that under no circumstances P would he ever sign a resolution pro viding for a separate peace with Ger many, and so It is assured that if the Knox resolution should go through i congress It would be vetoed. and that e would mean that it would have to re a celve a two-thirds vote in each branch of congress, or fall by the wayside. Only as a Last Resort. The Knox resolution is looked upon as the last resort. If all efforts to compose the differences in the senate on the treaty should fall, the Knox resolution would, in the judgment of practically all the senators, probably command a majority vote in both sen ate and house. It is doubtful, how ever, say the best Informed senators and representatives, whether it could ever command a two-thirds majority. For the next two weeks Interest will center not In the Knox resolution, but In the sincere effort on the part of a large number of senators to revive the treaty and open the way for its ratifi eation. The technicality over the ques tion as to whether the treaty is still before the senate is to be waived by those senators who believe that the proper course would be for President Wilson to withdraw the treaty and resubmit it. In the conferences that are now going on and will continue until the senate comes back after the holidays, the so-called Lodge reserva tions, which failed some weeks ago, are being used as the basis for peace negotiations. Those senators who in the earlier stages of the senate's work on the treaty favored ratification with out reservations are now saying to senators who have from the first in sisted on reservations, that they are 't willing to accerpt without change the e most of the Lodge reservations. They would like to have the preamble, whlich stlpulates that the treaty shall not become operative as to the United States ontil three of the four major allied nations shall accept the reserva tlons made by the United States sea w- ate, stricken out, and they would like Sto obtain modleatlons of three.r four a of the reservations. ul How Allied Matloes Feel. s Recent information that has come to is senators to the efect that Great Brlt t- aln. France, Italy and Japan will prob *- ably be willing to accept moat of the Indge reservations provided the pe re- amble is elimlinated. Is having some nt flautence on the situation. Senators or are now led to believe that even the Sreservation expressing the disapproval he of the United States of the Shantung it- award In the treaty might be accept I able to Great Britala and Japan, pro vided the preamble i not made a part ae of the ratifcatlon resolutlon. S The negotiations that are uader way e seek to eliminate partisan polities as a- fhr as possible and necessarily they a are not taking Into account pernons I at the senate or ountslde of that body who hold uncompromlsing oplnlous with Zr. respect to the treaty. el. May Reduce Sae of House. The census committee of the two branches of congress are already giving th6ought to the new ap portilonment of members of the house of representatitves, which will have to be worked out by them asu soon as the bureau of the censusmm an amounces the result of the new count of the people. At present there are 435 mebers in the house. The cosenmmus of opinion among persons who have give. the subject study Is that this Is too many; that a dellberative body composed of that number of persons heemes unwieldy and is not produc. thle of the best results.

Gain for States With Big Cities. The greatest increase in reprtsen tha tation s taken lace in the sthat. s Inn which laruze cities have sprung up dur nlig the last century. For Instance. New York state started off In 17940 with only ten representatives. Today that state lhias 4:. seats in the house. Penn sylvania. started off in 1870 with 13 miembers of the body and now has 36; Illinois was not represented at all In the house until 1810, and then by one member only. That state now has 27 - representatives. Ohio was represent ed by one member In 1800. and through increase In population has gained 22 seats in the house. It is Interesting to note that some of the states have no more represent atives than they had when the first house assembled. One of these is Connecticut, which had five members of the house that was created by the s constitutional apportionment. In 1810 ti that state had 7 representatives, and of in 1820 and 1830, 6. but now it Is back to 5. Virginia also has the same number of representatives to day that she had In the first congress. 10. In 1810 that state occupied 23 ul seats, but along about 1840 the num e her went down to 15. and ten years tl later to 13, and a little later back to R t the original numb,:r. n National Forest Policy Needed. ti The American Forestry association Is calling of a national forest pol. 6 Icy that will provide for the re forestation of all cut-over tluber ° lands on the public domain and o also all such lands as may be owned d privately. Charles Lathrop Pack. presi dent of the association, bellieves the only permanent solution of the paper to y problem is to be found In reforesta- V tion on a broad scale. He would begin v the work on the lands from which pulr a ° wood has been taken. He points out a n 1889 the pulp wood Industry 1,6,000 cords of wood, that ten years later it used 4,000,000 cords and It that for the last five years the aver a age consumption has been around 5. 900.000 cords a year. During the last nine years, according to his figures. the mills have used 9,264,000 cords of II Impotted pulp wood in addition to the y enormous cut in the United States. 1e According to the view of the Amerl- I t can forestry association, foresight d would have dictated the reforestation It of every acre of the cut-over land in Il the United States. The annual report 1e of the United States forester just is a- sued shows that the rate of depletion D. of the forests is more than twice, 'e probably three times, what is actually In being produced by growth in a form k serviceable for products other then I b- firewood. That government official calls to attention to the ever retreating sources 0- of timber supply. He notes that al re ready the supplies of all the great e eastern centers of production are ap I proaching exhaustion. Even in the b South, he says. maost of the mills have *t not more than ten or ftteea years' sup ud ply of virgin timber ahead of them. r overonment Antlo Needed.I - In the early years of the present - century It looked as tbough the man IC agetent of forests as permanent pro a ductlve propertles might be voluntarily undertaken by private owners on a large scale, but since then the situa to tion has materially changed. The need it- for the adoption of an enlarged pro b- gram of acqalsition, the forester points Sout, has become incresingly ura~gent. c- More than twenty years ago the dtvi Ssion of foestry, as it was .then called, r offered to give advice and essistance be to private timber owners who might Ul wish to consider applying forest man nt agement to their propertles. By the t- middle of 1905 requests had been to e- elved for the examinatlio of private it holdings, large and mall, compHsing in all 10,900,000 aeres of land. Many ay of these requests were froma large lue as her companles and other owners of ey extensive timber tracts. On the in strength of the showing made by the bo preliminary esaminatleas, a number of th these large owners entered into co operative agreements for the prepara tion of worknlag plans. ro But private forest interests failed dy to follow up the beglinnlog, and the ip government and the states, in the he opinion of the forester, mist joln ll handUs to work out a program that on will correlate public and private ef - foruts looking to the protection and of proper administration of forests.
