days and on Saturdays. It therefore goes 10 Its
readers oftener than the old style Of weekly Journal
and its news is fresher, and very nearly level,
in point of time, for country readers, with the usual
daily paper. The WEEKLY UNION has full, reliable

capable of doing what would have to be

capable of doing what would have to be
done. For tits certain that the Indians would
require great deal of help at first, and q
great deal of instruction and example, and
all this would cost money, and would tax
the capacity of the proposed fund severely.
We therefore doubt seriously whether
enough money can be raised in this way,
and think that to avoid anything like
deadlock provision ought to be made for
some auxiliary fund, only to be ayailed of
in the event of positive necessity, but at
hand in case of crisis.
Apart from these objections, none of
which go to the merits of the bill, we think
Mr.. Kirkwood has profited greatly
by his opportunities to ascertain the
best method of dealing with the In
dians. We have no doubt that the way he
proposes ID the right way to solve the In
dian problem, though it may be work OF
much longer time than is thought just now.
The example or permanent settlement once
given, however, and the tendency to ac-
cumulate property established, the CONVEX
sion of the wild tribes will become easier
continually. If they can be kept free from
| the depraving influence of the kind of white
| associations they have had forced upon
them hitherto, the experiment will have
so much the better prospect of success.
But in proposing to sell portions of the re-
servations to settlers, the Commissioners
would find it necessary to exercise dis
eliminating judgment as to the purchasers,
or they might undo the labors OF years by
establishing a lot of border ruffians !"
alongside of the Indians whom it
was sought to civilize. As. the
bill in its present form does
not contemplate any increase Of the
appropriations, and as there does not ap-
pear to be any money" in it, we think it
probable that Congress may be induced to
consider it upon its merits. No doubt it
would be best to try the experiment on
small scale, and it would be easy enough
to begin with single reservation. If the
plan was successful then it would be time
enough to extend it, and if it failed per-
haps better fortune might be had with
some other tribe. 1t is possible that some
difficulty will be encountered in persuad-
ing the Indians to agree to the diminu-
tion of their reservations, at first, but
when the whole scheme is explained to
them the majority may be expected to
entertain it favorably, for there can be
little doubt that they would Ike to i'm.
prove their condition.

dertake 10 explain that mystery. They.
are not manufacturing a raw material
which is grown in the country as other
raw materials are grown. They have done
nothing to create the forest. The forest
belonged to the land. All the lumber
firms have done is to destroy what they
have never sought to replace. They are
therefore rapidly reducing the country to
poverty in this respect, and yet Congress
actually helps them to do this mischief by
excluding foreign lumber. A more hope.
lessly idiotic course than this it would be
impossible to conceive. We ought to
preserve our forests as carefully as possible,
and in order to do SO we ought to admit
foreign lumber free of duty. 1t is to the
public interest that lumber should be cheap
and plentiful. 1t is not to the public in
terest that our forests should be sacrificed
to the greed and rapacity of few per-
sons. The tariff on lumber, in short, is
one of the most stupid and mischievous
OF all the protective taxes. Next to that
on qusnipe, which has now happily been
removed, it is perhaps the very worst on
the list. And if anything is to be done to
preserve the remnants of our forests, now
vanishing more rapidly every year, this
foolish tariff on lumber will have to be
taken off. Let us have Canadian lumber,
British Columbian lumber, any kind of
lumber, go that when this generation
passes from the stage it may not have
earned the curses of its survivors by
stripping the country bare of its forest
growth. And however it may appear to
Congress, this is very much more i'm.
portant question than the organization OF
the committees even.

little morbid spirit, which prompts them
to turn with loathing from familiar things;
to regard as sordid and vulgar the most
precious utilities of their own time to
yearn after the clumsy and inartistic cru
dities of hall. civilized ages to resent the
dissemination of Truth just as owls may
BE- supposed to resent the dissemination of
Light ; and to denounce as PhiIistines all

High Art means U Ugliness, Stupidity, Crude
ness, Bad Drawing, Discomfort, Sadness,
Gloom, and, speaking generally, genteel
and altogether decorous approach to sys-
tematic imbecility in decoration, cos.
tune, language and thought. Those who
will not accept these things who will not
believe that Swinburne's purulent po-
etry, and Walt Whitnan's barbarous
yawp," are the highest and best produc-
tions of the nineteenth century, are to be
anathema, and every Maudle and Postle-
thwaite of the esthetic school is to lisp
out denunciations of them.
There used to be an Evangelicism at the
beginning of the century which much 1e-
sembled this cult. 1t was in great favor
with old maids and young misses. 1t was
preached by the sweetest Of parsons, with
oh, such loves of whiskers, and their hair
parted in the middle, and such delicious
scent on their handkerchiefs. Of course
it was Mystical. 1t would seem quite in
dispensable, when appealing to that sweet
sex which doubles our joys and shares our
sorrows, to employ the Incomprehensible.
Perhaps it is that the idea of sort of re-
ligious Bluebeard's Closet stimulates the
curiosity of the fair creatures, and affords
them pleasant, thrilling sensation. Es-
theticism is in this line of cults It is
eminently fitted for ladies, and for ladylike
men. Oscar Wilde himself appears to be
a most ladylike young person, in his knee
breeches and silk stockings, and his flowing
lccks and sweet pale countenance. But
the present age has had enough, and more
than enough, of the kind of can't and twad-
die his school represents. The time when
men could be persuaded to surrender their
reason at the bidding of high priest of
any cult has gone by. To day there is no
passage anywhere without challenge
To-day the mention of a mystery suggests
fraud. And as for Oscar Wilde, is he
not familiar to US all in the really very
much more agreeable figure of Reginald
Bunthorne Bunthorne we know as
self-confesaed impostor. Perhaps Oscar
Wilde is not an impostor. Perhaps
he believes in his own mystical rubbish
in his sacerdotal travesty. But he and
his school arc behind, not in advance of,
the age. They bring to US dismal echoes
from feudal times, not foretastes Of a
brighter future. They may be tolerated SO
long as they furnish topics of amusement,
but they must not think to preselytize be.
cause they are tolerated, and they must not
be too vain because they are in so small a
minority. Let them remember that if
majorities are often wrong it by no means
follows that minorities are always right.

AS we anticipated, the Russian official
press has already given it to be understood
that the Cars Government will tolerate
no foreign interference in the matter of the
oppressed Jews. The question is regarded
as entirely an internal one, and Russia pro-
poses to abuse her Jewish subjects as much
as she pleases. This will probably dis
courage the Shaftesbury. Canterbury COM

but that will be the end of it, for nobody
wants to fight Russia at present.

The Campers.

The Reueile states that among the
Cornish residents Of Austin secret
society exists known as the "Ciampers."
It is intended for social pleasure, and
mutual improvement and benefit and
general welfare and information. Its
origin oates way back in the dark ages.
Harry Bluett thus gives it: Some hun
dreds of years ago, during the time Of
the Crusades, when they were trying
hard to whollop the Turks and rescue
the Holy Land, and in desperate at
tack upon Jerusalem, the br'vest ana
most successful soldiers were those VINO
climbed the walls. They became ia
nous for their wonderful exploits In
that line, and fraternity sprang up
among them known as the Climbers.

from the lost tribes of Israel, this Order
has been perpetuated among them to this
day, and the Austin society is simply q
