Physicians state there is no doubt ) ecovery of Senator Bailey of Texas, viho is ill in New York City. F. Decker J. GREAT geologist once said: The nations that have coal and iron will rule the world. Bountiful nature has dowered the American people with a heritage of both coal and iron richer by far than that of any other political division of the earth. What accounts can we, as a nation, give of our stewardship of such vast fuel treasures? Have we carefully conserved them, using only what was necessary in our domestic and industrial life, and transmitted the remainder like prudent husbandmen, unimpaired to succeeding generations? Or have we greatly' depleted this priceless heritage of power and comfort and source of world wide influence, by criminal waste and wanton destruction? The answer should bring a blush of shame to every patriotic American, for not content with destroying our magnificent forests, the only fuel and supply of carbon known to our forefathers, we are with ruthless hands and regardless of the future applying the torch and dynamite to the vastly greater resources of this precious carbon which provident Nature has stored for our use in the buried forests of the distant past. The wildest anarchists determined to destroy and overturn the foundations of government could not act in a more irrational and thoughtless manner than have our people in permitting such fearful destruction of the very sources of our power and greatness. The prospect is not a pleasing one to contemplate. True, the natural wealth of our beloved Union is so great and varied; our richness of soil, of forest and stream are so vast if preserved, and their boundless possibilities thoroughly utilized, that we would probably have the advantage of all other nations in the struggle for existence even after our fuel resources have been exhausted, hut this is no reason why we should not do everything possible to conserve them so that we may retain to a r smote future the great benefits which their possession assures- - 1911.
