FR1TCHARD ON THE PARK BILL m STRONG ARGUMENTS PRESENT f:ED TO THE SENATE IN FAVOR f 'r OF FOREST RESERVE. 4 Senator Graphically Portrays the Benefits that will Accrue from tha Great Project. Yl?lTkWrk nnnmnnmmiT FOR MANY WATER POWERS Special to the Gazette. Washington, April 26, 1&02. Seoator Pritchard today introduced an amend ment appropriating $5000 to each color ed agricultural school in the United States. Mr. Pritchard has a long con ference with the president this morning on political matters and again urged the expediency of appointing a southern man to the cabinet. The senator delivered a speech be fore the senate today on the Appalach ian reserve bill. His enunciation .was clear and distinct and his delivery ex cellent. He had the most flattering- at tention from his follow senators and an impression was made that win guarantee the passage of the measure. Great-interest is manifested in the sen ate in the establishment of the cpark. Senator Depew will address the -senate next week advocating the reserve. Senator 'Pritchard iwae highly compli mented by the senators on the argu ments he presented. He said: "Mr. President, it as the -well-settled policy of the'govemment to appropriate money whenever it becomes necessary to do so in order to facilitate com merce and; transportation1 in those States along the coast, as well as those through which our large rivers flow. This policy has had the sanction of a majority of the people throughout the country, upon, the ground that amy ex penditure which facilitates transporta tion and encourages the development of commerce is legitimate and proper.

The ruthless and indis criminate cutting of timber by the lum berman, as well as the forest fires, have tended to denude many of these mountains of a great per cent of the original growth of timber. The cutting of timber by the lumbermen at first was confined to the more rare and val uable trees, such as walnut and cher ry, but after the railroads rendered this region more accessible the cutting of birch, locust, poplar, oak, chestnut, and other valuable species began, and the operations of the lumbermen have today extended beyond the main lines of transportation by the construction of tramways, short railways, etc. "As a general rule, the lumberman who has1 operated in Tennessee and western ' Caroline, has been a resident of other states. Such being the case, his interest in the region in question) be gins and ends with the hope of profit.

The wind blew CLARK STILL SILENT But the Most Surprise is Ocea- sioned by the Silence of- the Newspaper that Has Been His Ally. Special to the Gazette. Raleigh, N. C, April 26. The public has not recovered from the shock of astonishment occasioned by Major Wil son's attack on Judge Clark. There is not a man in Raleigh without an opin ion in regard to the charges affecting the personal and official integrity of the judge, and most people express their views with a deal of freedom) but with a request not to be quoted. In official circles the silence that is observed is truly profound. This reti cence is not peculiar to the officeholder in Raleigh, for it has been ctoserved. in : a marked degree in Washington. As th Washington correspondent of one of the Raleigh papers telegraphed in hie daily budget Thursday night, every democratic member of the congressional delegation, from Senator " SlmfaiDfns down, is reluctant to think out aloud for obvious reasons. The most surprising deyelopfmient m connection with the exposure of Judge Clark ds the silence of the News and Observer, which is positively padnfiul. To Ithose who' are awaire of the' siledut partnership long existing between Judge Clark and Josephus Daniels the Surprise Is overwhefara, Imftgine ,.$cs f eeMnss of ''tmexoelaM trtihlic 'that stood on ista Kead Tall day T&uirtdsy x-4 pectlng to hear something: as loud as an explosion of dynamite the next tmorn- I rng, upon turning to the editorial col umns of the News ana uiDserver to see that the erstwhile organ of his honor had "joined the silent majority," so to speak. "Why?" explaiiims the puiblic in one breath. What aulbtiile influence has restrained the ever garrulous champion of the judge? Can alt be that the part nership has been dissolved? Are the judge and the editor to travel different roads henceforth? Has his honor been deserted by his organ in his hour of need? Has Josephus heard something drop? These and other questions are upon every lip; but the puibl&c is left to conjecture for an answer. Perhaps the organ has been brought to see that in taking up the cudgel against Major Wilson it will be caking too great a risk for its fast (failing ipopularity. Judge Clark himself nuaintains a de meanor that is outwardly serene in sipite of' the tempest that is raging within Ms bosom. To the question, "What are you 'going to do about it?" he in substance says only: "Proper notice will be taken at the proper time." At this the public hardly knows whether to .be surprised or not; for Judge Clark is as mysterious as a sphinx. Democrats find themselves asking the question, what 4s the use of making a fight upon Judge Clark for the nomina tion for chief justice of the Supreme court unless the opposition has la condi date to offer? It is exposing no con fidence to say that the hcoes of many Of the immigrants to this country the,r?
