The attacks of nods for clearings and » home have been Indiscriminate and ml in the extreme. The settlers are nol to blame, nor are the lumbermen. The action which has been going on with such frightfully Increasing rapidity during the last fifty year,- is duo to a lack of that governmental supervision in the interest nl the whole people whioh can only come education and experience. The lumberman wishes to realize at once upon his parallel as a rule vast fortunes are made in deforesting the land.

Tin- dee]) soil has been forming for a thousand years of more, and in its interlacing Of tree roots and humus, of grass and leaves, there has been created an enormous sponge for the absorption, retention and distribution of the rainfall. The rainfall in this region is greater than in any other part of the United States except the North Pacific coast. It ranges from 00 to too inches a year. The downpour at one time during the past year was 30 inches | Where the forests are intact the water flndi I Jts way through this thick and porou soil iroes into the crevices of the rocks and into' the gulches and forms springs anil rivulets. Nature, always beneficent m her operation, so arranges this vast collection of the rainy season that during the rest of the year it flows out, naturally and equably through the rivulets into the streams and through tl into the rivers, and ri anil fertilizes hall a dozen .states. The results of an attack upon this fort- tress created by nature for tho protection and enrichment of the people Is more disastrous than the sweep of an Invading army of savages over a thickly populated and fertile country. They kill they carry off captives, they burn and they destroy, but after the war the survivors return to their homes and in a few years every vestige ol the ruin has disappeared. In Its place th.-re are again dues, villages and happy people But the lumberman selects a tract of hard-wood forests upon the Appalachian Mountains. The trees young and old,, big and little, surrender to the ax and thi old to the farmer, who finds abundant harvests in its primeval richness. For about three years he gathers a remunerative and satisfactory harvest, hut he enormous rainfall descends, his farm gradually disappear. .\t the end e can no longer plant, crops, hut for two years more, if lucky, he may be able to graze his stock. At the end „l five years tin- rains and floods have washed clean the mountain sides, have left, nothing but tlie bare rocks, have reduced his farm to a desert, mid created u ruin which can never be repaired, Hilt, thi- is not all. That farm has cone down wiili lie- torrents, which havo been formed by the cutting off of the pri woods, into the streams below. It lias eaus. to spread over the farms of the valleys wd plateaus. It has turned these pel 1'uI waters into roaring floods, which have ploughed deep and destructive gullies through fertile Bold across grassy plains. One freshet in the Catawba River last spring, occasioned wholly by tie- deforesting of the mountains, swept away a million anda half dollar ol' farms, buildings mil stock. The damage done by tie- freshel oi last year alone, in the large territory I'ed by the streams and rivers Which enllie from these mountain estimated al ovei 118,000,000.

Mr. Hale (Rep., Me.) complimented Mr. Depew on his speech and asked him what the plan was. Mr. Depew replied that the bill hail been reported unanimously after an exhaustive. consideration, and that it proposed to pivo to the Department of Agriculture the right to purchase lands in the southern Appalachian Mountains, making a. Government forest reservation like those in the jJVest. .. "I do not think," Mr. Hale said, "that the Senate can fail to have been impressed with the great importance of the subject I was not aware of the extent of land pro-' posed to be purchased, but I think that something ought to bo done about it during this session." The bill went back to the calendar. D

Description

This is one of two notebooks assembled by the Appalachian National Park Association that includes documents and news clipping about the organization. The Appalachian National Park Association was formed in 1899 for the purpose of promoting the idea of a national park in the eastern U.S. Although housed in Asheville, North Carolina, the organization was a multi-state effort, attracting representatives from seven southern states. One of the highlights of the group’s activities was a convention held in 1902 to which 1,500 people attended. The association lobbied Congress for the creation of a park, but with limited success. The association disbanded in 1905.
