Michigsn, Wisconsin, Minnesota and
Canadian timber land Rrsbbers beat the
Same class Of operators on the Pacific
Coast very baby in the extent Of their
parohases, but perhaps not in the num-
ber OF fest Of timber secured. The Linn
beymsn's Gazette Describes the transac-
lions Of single concern:
s'Some time since, we poted extensive
purchases of pine timber by the AmerI-
can Lumber Company in the Upper
Peninsula. An officer Of the company
has written full particulars giving IN
dstaiI1 An account Of its purchases both
in Michigan and Canada. VI the rail
vay lands in Michigan the company
bought 10000 acres, about one SIKH OF
which has NO pine. Several parties are
making estimates Of the timber, and 81
far o. thsy have gone they place it at II
10000 fest to the acre, making an az
qrsests, aftsr deducting the swamp
lands, Of 100000 fest. On the Octo-
MACON river thsloompany purchased ~
90 asrss Of timber, which is being est'-
mated q Tar: - possible. No figures
have vt bsen arrived at, but the party
from whom it was purchased claims it
win cut 5O,OOO,OOo feet. An expert, Who
has looked the timber over, estimates,
howsvsr, that il win not 60 more than
4,6OO fest to tho acre, or an aggregate OF
li7,OOOOOO fest, In sizs and quality It
u said 70 b excellent. In Canada tho
company own 2Sl, 500 acres, estimated
20 cut over eOO,OOo.O0 feet. Robert
Dollar IL the managing director for
Michigan"
This purchase Of million acres by .
single oonoern for the timber upon It
alone n a transaction worthy the
mighty operators Of the great money
osnters Of tho country. but the idea OF
sush 4 vast quantity Of timber land
yisldins only l.6oO,0o.oW fest Of 'um-
bsr 10 bers almost Uncomfortable. A mil
lion acres Of timber land in the district
Of Pugst Sound would yield O.o0o,'
600 fest Of lumber easily enough.

The present is very favorable time

tendency is already upward. A spirit
of inquiry is arising among the people,
which is bringing out new class of

large amount of good, sound morality

Repeal or the Law Taxing Producers 70,
selling H

The subcommittee Of the House Committee on
Ways aud Means having in charge the cOnsidera-
ton Of internal revenue matters, give hearing
Friday upon the bill to repeal clause OF section
32il OF the Revised Statutes. This section prohibits
the sale ofleaf tobacco by the producers to any
parties except licensed dealers. Representatives
Dibrell and Mcmillan, Of Tennessee, Buokncr and
Hatch, Of Missouri, and Cabell, Of Virginia, made
arguments in favor OF the repeal. They urged
that this sweeping prohibition initiates seriously
against the tobncco growing interests OF the coun-
try, while its retention in the statutes Is OF
No PRACTICAL PRoFT
or advantage to the Government; that there are
In the whole country but five licensed dealers
under this clause and but one In the great
tobacco growing state of Missouri and that the
report Of the Commissioner of internal Revenue
shows that the entire revenue derived by the
Government last year from this source was but
under this clause of the law, the case was in.
stanccd of an old farmer in Missouri, who owed
heighbof thirty cents aud balanced the account
by turning over some tobacco of his own grow
Ing. The Transaction coming TO the notice Of
some internal revenue agent, he was arrested for
violation Of the law, carried q hundred miles
and Inconvenience. II was claimed that the effect
of this law Is
TO DISCOURAGE THE SMALL PRODUCERS
of tobacco who are unable to ind a Legitimate
market for their tobacco and that It's mlschicvOus
Shectshre sun lent argument for Its repeal. John
NJ. NORM, of North Carolina, representing the In
ieTCSts Of tobacco manufacturers of that state, and
particularly of tho town Of Durham, favored the
repeal of this clause, but deprecated any general
legislation upon the tobacco question. lie believed
that whatever Is done should bo done quickly
with rs little agitation of the subject possible.
lie presented mass Of statistics TO show the in-
jury which had been inflicted upon the mRnuflc-
