DEMOCRATIC DEPRAvITY.

When thief or swindler is discovered
in any community under Republican ad
ministration. the first thing done with
him is to secure his person by impris-
onment or sufficient bonds for his ap-
pearance when to be tried in Democrat
ic communities the criminal remains as
free as the birds of the air, de6es prose-
cution and asks for more and higher Of
fees. Thus the immaculate Tweed of
New York City, vino has stolen Millions
upon millions from the tag payers of that
community, has notified the electors Of the
senatorial district wherein he resides,
that he is a candidate for the office of
State Senator; and, whereas, when he
was candidate for the same Office be-
fore and was only suspected of dishonesty
he was elected by majority of twenty
two thousand votes, now that his COM
plicity with the most gigantic frauds of
our time is known, he expects 70 be elect
ed by majority of thirty thousand votes.
In speech made to his constituents he
said: L shall be content with nothing

Another Outrage ;st Eire.,iORll!-Unite<I ed
States Flag T0rm Down and Burned
The COnfederacy Redivivus! va

General CLARK, republican candidate
for Congress, spoke in Bremond Tuesday
night The assenblage consisted of about
three hundred republicans and one hun
drcd democrats.
Gen. Clark mace an excellent speech,
IN which, pointing to a large United
States flag owned by ii German named
Neiser, and which had been furnished
for the meeting, took occasion to refer,
IN patriotic terms, to the old banner OF
freedom and equal rights. Cen Clark
was listened TO respectfully. but as soon
as he had taken his seat, a man named
Moore, a bitter rebel, arose and SO niam-
ed the minds Of the democrats present
! that rush was made for the fig. 1t
was seized, set on fire and burned up.
The republicans made no effort to res
cue the flag, believing that pitched bat
tie would be the result. They preferred
tc let the lQad men carry out their trea-
sonabic purpose, rather than involve a
community in riot and blood he'd.
This is a most alarming indication, and
exhibits in colors not TO be mistaken, the
deadly hostility Of the rebel democracy
to the government whose flag they have
thus wantonly destroyed.
We call upon every man who values
the peace and prosperity of Texas to
unite with US in putting down and keep
ing out OF power party lead by men
who. in their madness, would again
plunge this people into war, and drench
The land in blood. .-Houston (Ieuas)

Timber Scarcity.

The growing scarcity of timber anc
timber lands Is becoming very impor
tant question for the country. The de
mand Tor lumber Is constantly increasing
Whlie the supply Is rapidly falling off.
vast IN extent as are the forests OF Min
nesota, W lsconsin and Michigan, at the
| present rate OF demand for building ma.
terlal t. supply the necessities Of our in
creaslng population, it will be but few
years b4iorc they are exhausted. Even
now, IN Iced, we are beginning to have to
! look to the shores of the Pacific for the
means TO supply this necessity, and il
VIII not be long before we shall have to
go clear beyond our borders
The average yield OF lumber to the
| acre is ABOUT 3, $50 feet. In the year
1869 the receipts OF lumber at the princi
pal Western markets amounted TO 3, 900
O0O OO0 feet, SO that in teNt year alone
| there must have been cleared $4,000
| acres, or an average OF 2.50O acres day.
Even at this rate VI should use up H.
600, 600 acres of lumber in Is years, aud
1t should be borne in mind that the de-
mand is co lStantly increasing.
Another and not less serious phase of
the matter consists in the fact that the
telling of f1rests in districts where rivers
have their sources is drying up the
streams Of vast regions. L is said that
the water supply of the whole of New
England is gradually failing, solely in
Consequence of the disappearance of the
forests. Many manufacturing districts
In these states, where waterpower was
formerly the rule, have been compelled
to adopt steam as a substitute, while nu-
merons rlils have been abandoned, be-
cause 1t was not profitable to replace the
wheel with i steam engine.
1t is predicted that within a few years
the Connecticut river will cease to be ma
vigable to Hartford from the same cause
Streams that formerly flowed into that
river year In and year out are now actu-
ally dry nine months in the year. 1t is
probable that the ruinous droughts W hich
afflicted New England last summer arose
from the causes mentioned. History
shows that many fertile districts in Eu-
rope, Asia, and Airia have been render
ed unlnhabitable in consequence of the
destruction OF trees.
In some European countries the gov
ernment has instituted regulations tor re-
pairing the drain upon the forests, and
we think the government of the United
States would not only exhibit wise, but
necessary foresight in taking this ques-
ton into conslde eration, ard adopting
measures for keeping up the timber sup
ply by settlers upon its public domain.

DoIoittle Going Back.
'hc Racine Journal puts the case

The Racine Journal puts the case
thusly
Senator Doolittle delivered a speech at
Janesviile, few days since. in which he
gave sorrowful picture of the serpeu-
tine career Of the Republican party, to
which he once belonged, and how that
in his straightforward political course, he
was at last, by a zlgZag movement Of the
Republican party, landed high and dry
on Democratic sand point. But in
justice to the senator. we will say that
he does not belong to the present demo-
cratic party that Grant captured with
Lee. Nothing of the kind. He be-
longs away back of ali them chaps. -
Here Is what he says about the matter,
IN his GAINESVILLE speech
Some timid nien may ask me, "How
dare you assume the name OF Democrat,
Il name SO odious to you for ten years
past ?' The answer comes In moment:
when applied to the old party Of JEFF
terson, Madison, and Jackson. it was the
most glorious name IN our history"
There Is where he is now. lie is going
back like the lrishman that was crawling
under the canvass to get into the circus.
One Of the watchmcn hit him on the
hSdu Will H1le, say lnS 10 MN dG tUe
sam time, Where are you going?'
Pat giving his head scratch says. 'Bc
jabers, I'm going back g Senator Doo-
little has been hit on the head so many
times for trying to get into the political
arena by some iilegitmate process. ''he
is going back" where the present genera
ton cannot get at him. The Senator
would stand better chance down in
Pennsylvania it is said there are dis
tricts in that State, where they vote Tor
Jackson regularly once in four years.

Ku-EaIax Organization.

This organization is horrid reality,
and not a myth, as Democratic Journals
assert. Both its friends and enemies
are witnesses Gifts existence. Why did
Sanders, the head of the klan of North
Carolina, and others who We've before the
ku klux committee, refuse to answer
questions propouuded to them In rela
tlou TO operations of the klan. ifthere is
ns sue institution? ? 1t would not have
been difficult for them to say they knew
Of no such organization, if there was DC
such to their knowledge But they d.
not say this. They had before their eyes
the pains and penalties Of perjury. A
gentleman OF Intelligence, in Columbia,
5. g.. well acquainted with the existence
and grips and signs and passwords and
operations and strength Of this Internal
order, has written series of letters set
ting forth the acts of the order. the ma
ierial of which it is composed, the effect
of its persecution upon both the white
and black population III the districts, TO-
gethcr with It's organization. laws and
regulations, and its numerical strength.
This order prevails in all the Southern
states. and IS strong enough in Noui
Carolina, South Carolina, Georgia, Ten
nesse, Alabama and Mississippi. to inhu-
ence and control public sentiment ard
defy the local courts and intimidate the
officers of the law. and prevent the pun
i>hment Of any of its members. 1t is
known by different names in different
localities But the animus of these diff
ferent circles are the same everywhere
and manifest the same spirit and pcrne
trate the same dark deeds. 1t is an in
visible organization 1t is secret with
its passwords. and NOT known to the res
of the community. 1t is numerous. L
is compact body Il is well organized
v hen they come together it is no mob
or loose assemblage Every movemon
shows that they have been drilled ant
intend to accomplish a common purpose
1t is a military organization; when the,
move they have arms in their hands an
use them at the word of command. Thi
army of midnight miscreants is unde
complete control.
