Preservation Of Forests.

The holy horror with which most
Europeans contemplate the reckless de
struction of American forests would bt
sadly aggravated by . sight of the great
fires which have devastated the forests
the villages and the farms of many por'
tons of New York and Pennsylvania
during the past fortnight. But forest
fires like these are not very much more
unfamiliar phenomena in many portions
of the United States-and especially in
portions Of the Northwest, where violent
winds are frequent-than are ordinary
summer rains. The origin of them is
generally traceable to accident, as acct.
dents go in this country; but it is acct.
dent which has its roots in the deplora.
bic tradition mutely handed down from
the early days of American history that
forests are the foes If civilization, not
requiring to be preserved or nationally
used, but rather, like those other aborig-
inal tenants Of the continent, the Indians,
inviting destruction at the hands of the
white man. And they have been most
vigorously and wantonly destroyed by
the white man. Fires carelessly or will
fully kindled in the woods have from
time to time swept down whole forests Of
timber whose present or prospective mar.
ket value ter the use of the carpenter and
the ship builder was great, whose value
as moderators of climate and as aids to
agriculture were almost incalculable.
Other forests equally worthy of preser-
walton have, with almost equal wanton-
ness, been cut down to rot upon the
ground. or to be sent through the saw
mills by people whose only interest in
forests and forestry has been to make
the largest possible profit by converting
. tract Of growing timber into market
able sawed.lumber.
= = = = =
In several of of the far Western States,
where forest fires and the AZ of the lum-
herman and of the railroad-builder have
made visible inroads upon the forest,
q regular system Of tree planting has
been instituted, which promises not only
to restore destroyed forests whereveri it is
necessary to restore them, but in time
possibly to rear forests on the tseeless
plains which can be reclaimed to the uses
of man in no other way. It has been
limited and not without reason, Is is
shown by the foods in treeless portions
of New England above alluded to, that
plantations of trees made in the treeless
counties of the head waters of the Red,
Arkansas, Platte and Missouri Rivers,

ley of the Mississippi. The suggestion
Is one which Government engineers and
other persons who from time to time ap-
ply tbemselves to the problem of pre-.
venting these calamsties might profita-
bly, take into consideration. But what

T,ukfmu Rack Seats.

The names Of Carpenter, Chandler,
Butler, Bingham, Schenck, and many
others of similar ilk have disappeared
forever from the Congressional roll. The
remaining whipped bullies, such as
Blaine, Hale, Hoar, etc, who have SO
long cracked their whips over Congress,
will, after the 4th Of March, go to the
rear. They will take back seats. They
will be taught by the new majority bet
ter manners. They will have to listen
to free speech, and a good deal of it.
The time is rapidly coming when the
voice of the Democratic people Of this
country, who, North and South, are more
than million of majority, is going to
be expressed without fear or favor.

been such tyrant. The young and Wig
Orous Democrats OF the country, who
will control the next House, will have as
little respect for the rotten old Grant
oligarchy as the Republicans once had for
that which spoke in the name of the
South. We sometimes regret that Ben
Butler was not elected a member Of
the next House, in order that he might
listen to the estimation in which he is
held by the people, and where he could
see how the mighty have fallen. With

The Republican party has row had an
uninterrupted ascendency Of fourteen
years in the Houses of Congress. This
ascendency viii. be brokenup on and
after the 4th of March. No party in any
age or country ever lorded 1t with such
high hand. Noparty was ever SO dol :
neering and dictatorial. None was ever
80 naughty in its department toward its
political opponents. None ever 50 ag-
gressive and insolent. None eyer secured
such complete suppression of free speech,
unless exercised in its own behalf. II a
Democrat, duriDga this long and dreary
time, ventured TO open his mouth in the
House, he must speak with bated breath
and in the most measured language, even
il he was engaged in denouncing the most
fragrant and monstrous usurpation OF
power. Otherwise there were resolutions
Immediately offered for his censure, If not
his expulsion from the House. In this
manner the voice OF minority that al
ways approximsted in numbers the
majority, was virtually suppressed. We
thought that the reign in its slater days Of
the South in Congress-the days Of the
JEFF Davises. Toombses, Brookses, Rhetts,
slidells--was bad enough in its arrogance
and insolence, but it was not TO be COM
pared to that Of their SUCCESSORS. Ii even
seems mild and tolerant in comparison.
Ii is a source of infinite graduation that
this Republican tyranny, after having
existed for about the same length Of time
as that of It's predecessors, isalso drawing
TO final close. A new generation Of
men, after the ith Of March, is coming 10
the front.

lie schools of Wheeling, West Virginia,
a few days ago, a youngster was asked to

answered, Hypocrisy"
GRANT urges Congress in a special
message to interfere in Arkansas, and
this in the face of report from the Ar
kansas Investigating Committee that no
interference is advisable. Such action
on the part of the President is simply
outrageous. Arkansas is at peace. 1t
has courts where it can regularly and lie
gally determine all questions now at
issue regarding the legality Of past elec
tons. The central government has no
shadow of excuse for interfering there,
and Grant recommends it only because
such interference would be one more
step toward military rule over the entire
country.
The Pittsburg Post says II Grant is
a second Washington, what is the third
likely to be?

AFTER all, Ben Butler must be secretly
opposed to the Civil Rights Bill. He
certainly did all he could to prevent its

he would come back to Congress. What

heretofore to give the bill trial, the
Senate will hesitate to run the risk now
when it knows how much it will cost.
