or Deputy, is to succeed. 1t is rumored
that this change in the Constitution has
been made in the interest of General Por.

The present chief executive is in failing
health. and it has been feared that he
might die suddenly, or be incapaeitated by
his ailments, and it was very necessary
that in the event of his sudden removal the
succession should fall upon some officer
who could be trusted by Diaz. A short
time ago it was understood that he had
made arrangements for putting his father.

announcement of the amendment TO the

TIE P&oTgcFIoN OF FORESTS

Professor Charles Sargent contributes to
the North american Revieog very impor-
tans and interesting paper, entitled "The
Protection of Forests" In it he goes
over the ground which the RECORD UNION
has so often trayersad, showing with what
startling rapidi:y and recklessness the for.
ests of this continent are being consumed,
and demonstrating the nature AMI extent
Of the evils which must follow unless .bis
waste is stopped. We confess to feeling
of great encouragement on thia subisa..
We have carefully observed the cour5s Of
argument, discussion, legislation, upsn
the forest issue, and have seen how, year
after year, despite the most urgent and
powerful representations, Congress and the
State Governments have altogether ignored
the question, or proposed remsdies which
failed to touch it. Meantime the waste of
timber has gone on without a check. and it
has even increased. In this State at the
present time the most infamous deeds are
done to our forests. a few days ago W
were informed that in the Northern Sierra
belt of timber fourteen miles long and
two wide has been destroyedfor the sake of a
resinous emulation, employed in the manu-
facsure Of a certain quzck medicine. Else.

from each a few bundles Of shakes. The
shake.makera, in fact, have long been the
most wanton and incorrigible destroyers
Of pine timber. Bu. il is quite useless to
publish these things. Nothing is ever
done 10 prevent them. The General Go,
eminent will not protect the forests, and
the State Governments cannot. Some years
ago it was proposed to turn over the control
OF them TO the States, On condition that
they were preserved, but no doubt the
lumber interest went into the lobby at
Washington, and The scheme was rejected.
California has, perhaps, more to appre.

forest growth than any other State in the
Union, yet her people do not appear to

THE MORMON TROUBLE.

As was to have been anticipated, there
is trouble in Utah over the new arrange.
ments. The Mormon office-holders refuse
to give way to those who have been ap-
pointed by the Commissioners, and though
applications for writs OF mdRddnys have
been made, it will probably not be at all
an easy matter to Gust them. It is said
that they are acting in accordance with
the instructions OF the Mormon Church
II this be true it means that the Mormon
Caurch intends to fight the proposed
changes at every step and in every way
shors of actual resistance. Aud it must
be extremely difficult to overcome such
resistance, especially in the outlying parts
of the Territory. In these places, where
there are few or no Gentiles, it will be
almost impossible to get the Mormons put
out and the Gentiles put in. Indeed it
will be very difficult even at S ut Lake,
and if the resistance is well organized
the work of the Commissioners may be
partially nullifed, or at all events its
application be seriously delayed. Nor is
there any remedy for this but patient en-
ployment of all the instrumentalities of the
law. When a whole community is con.
tumacious it is impossible to send it to
prison, or deal with it summarily 1t is
useless to talk of su5iuing the Mormons
by force. Any attempt in that direction
would only make them stronger than ever.
The problem is a very difficult one, aud it
is questionable whether it is capable of
solution by any of the devices thus far

TURKEYS ANXIETY.


The Porte has addressed I note to England
asking when the British army will evacuate
Egypt, and suggesting the propriety of an
immediate exit from the Delta. It is net
likely that the English Government will
pay any attention to this demand. The
Porte has no longer any authority in Egypt.
Its conduct during the rebellion of Arab
was such as to warrant the suspicion that
it desired the success of the rebel chief.
Nor is it true that there is no longer any
demand for an English army in Egypt
There is great necessity for such an army
there, and will be for at least several
months to come, and in fact until a stable
government has been established. Nothing
can be more certain than that if the En-
glish army were suddenly withdrawn the
disbsnded Egyptian soldiers would at once

if a new effort was not made to oyerth ?
the khedive. The latter has failed to
govern the country, and it may be neces.
sary to supersede him, but until all such
questions are arranged, and peace and law
and order are firmly established, it would
be almost criminal blunder for Gladstone
to consent to withdraw the army It is
equally necessary to keep it in Egypt until
the European Conference has met and
acted, for possession is nine points Of the
law, even between nations, aud Great
Britain will be able to carry her points
much more easily if she holds Cairo and
Alexandria and the Suez Canal and the
adjacent waters with her army and navy,
while the discussion is pending as to what
shall be done with the country.

ings? As fact, all they have done is to
make it very much harder for themselves
to strike again. Observe, too, that such
disastrous strikes have been very much
more frequent since the workingmen began
to "organize." The truth is that their
organization has only made them rash, but
has not added to their intelligence, and
as a consequence they are every year being
driven closer to the wall, not merely despite
Of, but actually becauseo their organization.
Il is, however. in the matter of drink that
the most astonishing waste of capital &C.
ours. A thousand millions year are
spent by the working classes of America
and Great Britain upon this one thing.
Is it not, therefore, absolute nonsense to
say that the poverty and misery of the
poor are the sole results of the hardheart-
edness or injustice Of the rich, or of the
inequalities of the social system? It is
demonstrable, as we have shown, that the
working classes have it in their own power
to secure themselves from want indefi-
nitely. If they will hot use their earn
ings prudently if they will squander SO
large proportion of their capital the re-
sponsibility must be their own Society

selves. But it is essential that the truth
of the situation should be made known,
inasmuch as nothing encourages shiftless-
ness and pauperism SO greatly as the notion
that these conditions are somehow the re-
suit of external and altogether remote in-
huences, over which the victim can exer-
else no control. On the other hand, there
is nothing so stimulating as to make men
understand that their condition in life de-
ponds upon themselves; that the world

injurious things the capital which, if ju-
diciously invested, would make them indie

tbs WASTE OF CIVILIZATION

There goes up a constant lament ever
the misery OF the poor. There is class
Of writers who delight in asserting that
the rich are growing richer and the poor
poorer. Yet it is al undeniAble truth that
the civilized world wastes and sauanders
annually an amount OF capital which, if
funded, would in less than ten years rem
der pauperism and destitution impossible.
It is cautious estimate that in the United
States and Europe 81, 800, 900, coo annu.
ally are thus worse than thrown away.
OF this immense amount two-thirds is
expended upon drink. OF the remaining
third a very large proportion is lost
through ignorance, prejudice, obstinate
vice, or stupid luxury. And it is specially
significant fact that the poorer the classes
the larger in proportion is the amount of
capital thus wasted by them. The extrav-
agance OF the poor indeed is almost proverb-
ial, but it ia seldom seen so clearly as when
we analyze the statistics of expenditure
and waste. The working classes have for
many centuries been burning their candle
at both ends, in truth. and when the sser-
eotyped ahsurdities about the oppression"
of these classes are enumerated, it is a
wholesome time to reflect upon such facts
az we are treating of. Take the one
item of strikes. Does anyone begin to realize

THE NEMESIS OF The FORD BROTHERS

The Ford brothers, who assassinated
jesse James, and WHO are now exhibiting
themselves as one OF the attractions Of a
New York show, are said to have been
very much alarmed by the appearance
among their visitors OF the wife of Frank
James. They believe that Frank James
has declared his intention to kill them
both on the first opportunity, and as they
know Mrs. Frank James to be very reso-
Int and not particularly law-abidipg
woman, perhaps they suspect her of acting
as "spotter " for her husband in the
matter. It is by no means improbable
that they are correct in this surmise.
Having committed such a deed as they
have, however, it is inevitable that they
ahould carry uneasy consciences. They
know that they have deserved to be killed,
and especially by Frank James, and it is
not surprising that they should be nervous.
Indeed, we think it highly probable that
they will sooner or later be shot by either
relatives or friends of Jesse James, for
that kind of people cherish blood feuds
very carefully, and are not in the habit of
forgetting or forgiying such injuries as
the Ford brothers have inflicted upon them.
And, to speak caudidly, we should learn
that Frank James or some of his gang had
revenged themselves in this way with
considerable equanimity, for we are con.
WINGED that the removal of these as
sassins would be very much less democrat.

bition in the guise of notabilities.
