2 CHARLOTTE DAILY OBSERVER, MARCH 9, 1903. I THE SPORTING r.WjDRLD: WAKE FOREST . MAKES REPLY ' t. r- TL Brown' Commnnicatlon Is Answered by a Baprtet FUyer Mr. Crorier Initially Criticised : AshevUles firounds For, Claiming Championship invesugawa. : T th Sporting Editor; In answering Mr. E. B. Brown' ar-ii- r the lath ultimo, in which Mr. Croaier la taken to task tor atatementa mad with regard to tne mui. . M. C A.-Wake Forest oasseioau iv nlaved in Ashevllle.. I would Ilka to aay that Mr. Croaler was not responsible tor anything sail in that article and knew nothing about It un - n . nuhitratinn. The wTlter waa a member of the team who had the great honor of participating in this rini the "bent team in' the tate" ao called only by member of aid team). Mr. Brown lanes too much for granted, for hia presump- tinna in this case are incorrect In my account of the Southern trip taken by the Wake Foreat team, . mentioned the fact that the team waa crippled because of aickness. l out ot elve this, however, as an excuae for the defeats, in a single instance Neither did I aay or intimate that our team waa beaten because of rough playing. Tet Mr. Brwn aeema to ttav gathered auch excuse from my article. Another case of too hasty presumption. I'll admit that w did not ro oreDared to engage In a game ct football, and while I do not deny that our team played roughly in tne last half, neither can Mr. Brown deny that tile team took the initiative m th rough playing. With regard to the championship , all that we have to aay la that Wake Foreat undoubtedly holds it ana tne Aahevllle T. M. C. A. undeniably wants It. W have beaten Trinity and Guilford on their own flQora and here and Ashevllle must beat ua here fcefora there la any justification to their claim. Mr. Brown mentions three North Carolina and three Ten neaaee schools ibeaten, giving the scores. He saya that he la not trying to 'boot" hia team, yet he mentions In connection with the North caro Una championahlp the fact that his team haa beaten the three "beat col lege in Tennessee. Let's return to North Carolina and investigate the claim of the pretend ers here. Wake Foreat, Aahevllle School and the Farm School have been" beaten. Of course the T. M. C. A. haa a much better team ,than the Farm School, for the score waa so large and the game so Insignificant that both have been forgotten. If thia Farm School Is of o. little Im portance, why should so much at reus be laid upon the fact that the Farm School was beaten, in this claim for the championship? Our team la an far outclassed that It Is pitiful for a ; comparison to "be drawn. Wake For est beat Aahevllle School 18 to If on their own floor, while the T. M. C. A. beat them In Aahevllle 47 to 12, In tne first' game, and It la upon the score of the games with Ashevllle School that the comparison is made.' ' Mr. Brown with admirable shrewdness falls, however. In all probability through forget fulness, to give the re ult of the second game between Ashe vllle School and the T. Mi C. A.. In which game the score atood 17 to 17 with Ashevllle School claiming the victory. This game waa played not In the Aahevllle gymnasium, but out on the Aahevllle School floor. So it Is plainly understood why the T. M. C. I A. team doea not wish to visit Wake Forest. In speaking of the game played tn Ashevllle, mention is made of the work of Wake Foreat'a atar forward . Mr. Couch, and also Incidentally (?) of Ashevllle's atar guard, who hap pen to be Mr. Brown. Let me re peat for the benefit of the public that Ashevllle a star guard and our forward split even on goals and that eight foul goals were thrown 'by Mr. Brown to Mr. Couch'a four. Doesn't that sound good! What a pity that some one were not thrown more bouquets: "he" needs them bad enough. Mr. Croxler upon his return to col lege Immediately began work with the baseball squad and disbanded the team, and since the faculty doea not allow ua but one trip during the spring we cannot accept the "generous" proposition offered us by Mr. Brown. But if the "best team In the State" la still anxious to prove its superiority, Mr. Crozler may be prevailed upon to re-organ lze the team. A game will then he played here, according to our Interpretation of the rules, and a third gam can be arranged later. In closing I would like to aay that the AVake Forest team could not help but feel the discourtesy shown it In not being allowed to furnish an of ficial In the game played In Ashevllle. Jt Is generally understood everywhere, except In Ashevllle. that a viaitlng team haa the right to furnish an um pire or referee, yet Mr. Croxler was not asked by the Ashevllle team to a !st,ln officiating.

I FORESTS, MOUNTAINS 1 AMD MOUNTAINEERS Lord Manwood of England in hl treafiae of "the lawa of the forest." 1I8. defines a forest as follows: "A forest Is a certain territory of woody grounds, fruitful pastures, privileged for wild- beasts and fowla of the forest, chase and warren, to nest and abide in. In the safe protection of the King-, for hia princely delight and pleasure; which territory of ground so privileged, I meered and bounded with unremovable markea, meers and boundaries." . So much for the rood old days of 1518. But now put the people in the picture in lieu . of his Royal High ness, give them the trained forester and quote President Roosevelt in his address before the . forest con gress. "Every tree is beautiful, every grove ia pleasant, every foreat grand." Did you ever come under the mys tic spell of-the hflatl' Of the woods; the quiet bough overhead wrapped in a alienee you cannot oemprehend and fills your soul with a strange un rest, and have thia "call of the wild" carry 'you far up some boulder strewn mountain stream, on beyond the haunts of man, by the limpid pools, the musical cascade, and on through the boundless forests 7 Not Then comelend . me your thoughts and let me show you the sacred gifts of the Creator and the sacri lege of man. We are in the heart of our Appalachian mountains, over a low range of foot-hills, down a winding trail, through the land of the Cherokeea, up the head-waters of a mighty river, and, after we take a refreshing draught from it ice cold spring, we climb the majestic height of the Smoky Mountslns and feel the beauty of the grand pano rama, spread out before us, a God given gift to man. Da you marvel that such environment haa so exer cised it Influence over the character of the inhabitants, that the moun taineer stand In a class to himself, a true child of Nature? His rugged manhood has no physical peer; fol lowing well-known lawa of emigra tion hia forefathers - came from mountainous sections of the Mother Countrios. Mlagling but little with the outer world, he stand to-day the most pure blooded race In America.- Hia country is the store house of a bountiful Providence; but which man seem bent to detroy. The velvet-like carpet of moss and leave under your feet la Nature' reservoir; In these grand old- hills we have the heaviest rain-fall east of the Pacific slope, this sponge-like covering of the woodland retains the! water and It percolatea throughout the dry season In an even flow, main-1 talnlng th atreams, luxuriant growth of trees, shrubs, medicinal herbs and wild flowers so Inseparable to the welfare of man. Do you realize you are now overlooking the last virgtn forest of any magnitude in the whole great mountain range? Where by! the natural barriers the hungry! greed of those licensed vandals, thej lumbermen, have not molested; but, I even as we look, we hear the muffled i roar of the blasting on the new rail road, down the Tennessee river, and we see the lumber cruiser pass in his quest like the vulture in the wake of the lost traveler In the desert; yes, the lumber king has hia eye on this virgin of th hills and la bent on converting her matchless re sources to gold for his coffers, while for some reason, an enigma to all, that Caar-Uke dictator at Washington Is over-using his arbitrary authority and keeping his foot on the only ray of hope for thla glorious country, while men both great and small clamor for the relief asked In the forest reserve bill. Let ua turn our faces from this sad picture, and with a hope for th better, forecast ita fate by looking at the devastation. Ions and ruin in other localities where thia willful waste haa held away; where Nature haa been etrlpped of her protecting robe and laid bare to the mercllesa fury of the elements. Far off to the! east we can see Mount Mitchell that grand old dome, the highest east of the Rockios writhing in the grasp of the relentless lumbermen. as her evergreen cloak of black spruce I torn from her rugged shoulders, with Dr. Mitchell' monu ment on her crest, a sad but power ful sentinel. To our north and south the smoke from innumerable mills and - dread forest fires eating! at her vitals. To the west are the! mammoth band mills of tha Tellco country; for their capacious maw , over three hundred acres are dally denuded, and this is going on all through this whole mountain range, the last stand of the hard-wood crashing down before a merciless foe and no voice strong enough to hush the death chanting song of the saw. Almost without exception the tree tops and brush are left carelessly aa they fall, to feed. the fierce forest Ores that go unchecked, leaving ruin In their wake, the seedlings . and young trees killed, and thereby obliterating the prospects of a future timber supply. The successive burn ings remove the vegetable mould, then th flood water rushing down hard, barren slopes, overrunning the meadows and farms In the . valleys and leaving them covered by silt and lost to agricultural purposes, while tn the low lands the debris form obstructions, the courses of rivers are changed, the " fertile bottoms are covered by sand and channeled by eroslon. The valuable waterpowere are becoming practically useioss during the dry season. Nature's sys tem of water supply and distribution serlou'v Impaired and since a water power like a chain has no greater strength than its weakest link and ita measure of value is set by the minimum and not the maximum discharge. In the larger waterways the property loss is apalllng. In the City of Pittsburg alone amounting t many million, dollar In the last few years all directly these causes: swift attributable tO;iv retribution for such flagrant violations of the laws of Nature. Our only remedy He In the propose government reserve of this watershed, and hearty co-operation with th forest service in judicious lumbering and forest man agement, as th average land owner has neither the technical knowledge or facilities for the proper applica tion of the only known relief from the great national peril. There should be no class, sectional or political fi-atures involved In thla vital clans of the common weal. D. W. ADAMS. Glendale Springs. lie Xotloil It, Too. Everybody' Magaalne.

The Union County Republicans held their county conven tion In the court house yesterday, at which delegates from all the town ships were present Resolutions were passed endorsing the administration of President Roosevelt, and favoring the nomination of YVllltam II. Taft. for whom the delegates to the Stat convention to be held at Greensboro on April Wtn ware Instructed. Judge Adama' management of the Stat chairmanship waa commended, and the delegate were instructed to favor his re-eleotlon to that office. J. W. Hasty, W. B. Love and T. C. Hegler were elected delegates, and F. C. Broadway, A- C. Penegar and J. S. Hasty, alternates. The present officers of th county committee, T. L. Love, chairman, and B. H. Rogers, secretary, were re-elected. The county executive committee la now constituted as follows: T. L. Love, S. H. Rogers, J. IL Mills, F. C Broadway. L L. Flncher, J. 8. Hasty, L. F. Lathan, J. W.

But they are still deprived of their proportionate representation on the committee, while Monroe and Marahvllle have more than their due ahare. The Idea seems to be that it would not do to have more than Just about enough votea to Oil the available Jobs, and those township that per sist in casting mors votes than are necessary for the purpose are, there fore, disciplined. One of the dele gates remarked, after the convention, that there would be a revolution in New Salem and Goose Creek on of these days, and th hardy yeomanry of those famous township would rise in their might and demand adequate representation. But they'll never do It; never. Aa Lord Bacon aaid. "The rising unto great place Is laborious, and up a winding stair," and those people over there are too busy farm ing to bother about representation, on the executive committee, atnee that would Involve an eternal conflict with thos who are not too busy farming the public revenues. . ARM CUT OFF BY SAW. Mr. Jefferson Starnes. son of Mr. Daniel Starnes, of Buford township, lost his arm by a most painful and distressing accident Friday - while working in the sawmill of Mr. John M'jCuln. A liy wheel carrying the belting was thrown from Its place on the celling and struck Mr. Starnes, knocking him against a. .circular saw, His arm was cut off near th shoulder, and it was first feared, that he would bleed to death before the flow of blood could be stanched. - Dr. J. M. Blair was summoned, and by removing the rest of the arm from the socket got the sufferer out of danger. Dr. Bhtlr say that Mr. Starnes will recover.

A few nights ago Dr. G.
