For Capt. Thomas we entertain senti-
ments of respect and kindness, and we
should always regret the fact if, in any way
We injured his reputation or outraged his
feelings. But We owe 10 the pnblic the
duty Of eXposing the csptsins bad politics
and any facts in his record that would rem
der him unworthy the confidence Of the
Eighteenth district With his politics We
shall interest ourself hereafter, and al this
time be satisfied by briefly calling attention TO
a charge made against him by members of
his own party before he was nominated for
Congress. While doing this We desire 10
express the hope that the captain can refute
the charge made by pretended friends, the
truth Of which the sun has admitted by re-

Thomas, acting as a lawyer, collected for Mr.

for his own purposes; that he refused TO pay

he became a candidate for office, and then
paid the money under a threat of exposure.
Is this truel What has Capt Thomas to
say about IT. What docs the sun sayi We

promise the Sun to publish lis denial if

AN impression prevails in Texas that we
shall be compelled 10 fight Mexico. II is
believed President Diaz will soon become
the aggressor and attack Gen. Ord's troops,
and thus precipitate US into a war. We
have some doubt Of this outcome ofthe diff.

ment and that Of Mexico. President Hayes
has as his adviser in this matter Mr.. Evarts
who is man Of words and not of deeds. II
is therefore a probability that We shall talk
about fighting until Messrs. Hayes and
Evarts fall into the seclusion ofprivste life.
But there is a possibility the administration,
TO attract public attention from the Potter
investigation and the rascalities 10y which
Mr.. Hayes secured his Office, may be as viii

HOW Gas WAS FIRST USED.

Great was the amazement of all England
when. at the close of the last century,
William Murdoch discovered the use OF
combustible air or gas. So little was the
invention understood and believed in by
those who had not seen it in use, that even
great and wise men laughed at the idea.
q How could there be light without n
wick ?" said a member of Parliament when
the subject was brought before the House.
Even Sir Humphrey Davy ridiculed the idea
of lighting towns by gas, and asked one of
the proprietors il they meant to take the
dome of st. PauIs for q gas meter. q
Sir Walter Scott, too, made himself merry
over the idea of Illuminating London by
smoke, though he was glad enough, not 70
long after, to make his own house at Alb
boisford light and cheerful on Wintry
nights by the use Of that very smoke n
When the House Of Commons was light
ed byigns the architect imagined that the
gas ran on fire through the pipes and there
fore he insisted on their being placed several
inches from the wall for fear of the build
ing taking fire. The members might be
observed carefully touching the pipes with
their 1glovedi hands, and wondering why
they did not feel warm. ,rfaifi -s-t :,
Tho first shop lighted in London by the
new method was Mr.. Askerman's, on the
Strand, in 1910; and one lady of rank was
30 delighted with the brilliancy of the gas
lamp on the counter that she asked to be
allowed to take it home in her carriage.

/ THE WASTE OF LUMBER,

~eA leading lumber dealer Of Montreal gives
some startling facts in regard 20 the lumber
trade. and the great waste Of timber In this
country. According to this lumbermnn,
who has been in the business twenty-five
years, but four of the Northern States are
now able to furnish timber beyond their
own needs OF these -four, Maine IL all but
stripped of its pine, and even the spruce Is
going fast, 30 that the people Of that State
win in . Few years find themselves without
building timber enoughfor their own wants
In five or six years, the white pine of Michi-
gan, Wisconsin. and Minnesota, will hav-
~disappears., The reports Of lack o. wat9r
sufficient to float the logs now, 20 often
heard, are due not so much to exception
ally dry seasons, rs to the faot that the
'lumbermen are penetrating farther and far
Their from the main streams. Indeed, the
mill ownen are now building railways to
reach the last remote sources Of the timber
supply, and, OF course, the end cannot UNI
der such circumstances be far distant.
1t Is true the public domain in the North
west and the South contains an immense
supply. The reports made to the Secretary
Of the Interior show that the great depre-
dation carried on for years leaves only
enough to supply the actual needs Of set
tiers. In regard to the supposed inexhausti-
BILE supply in the Dominion, Mr.. Little says
that we cannot look to the Dominion for
an inexhaustible supply Of timber when our
OWE forests shall have disappeared. 81
win ASSERT he mys, F" from a personal
knowledge Of most Of the timber sections
Of Canada, and trustworthy reports from
Others, that we have not, from the far-oR
province Of Manitoba to the Gulf Of st.
Lawrence, as much pine, spruce, hemlock,
oak, ash, elm, wildwood and other COM
merciai woods as would supply the whole
consumption of the United States for q
period, of three years." baR .-74ianIfss4
1t Is estimated hat five hundred million

will come when tree planting shall receive
