Value of the Tidal Wave"
B0sfOa Post,

The tidal wave .'has done us more harm
than good" shouts some democratic
brother now and then. We fail, however,
to see how or where the tidal wave has
injured the Democratic party. On the
contrary, but for that wave Of popular
indignation the Forty-seyenth Congress,
at its second Sessions would have plum
dered the Treasury TO even a greater ex-
tent than it did at its first session. In all
probability the tidal wave came just IN
time TO prevent the scandalous approprias
ton and waste Of from sec. 000, 900 TO $lO0,-
OOO, 900, to say nothing Of the future bene-
fits TO the country at large and to the
States most affected by 1t.

A correspondent of the Pittsburg Com

from Washington that material changes

that theyounger men will be brought to

denied them of obtaining political distinc-
ton. The mistakes made in the last cam
paign will likewise be corrected, and
those who were responsible for them will
be given a-back seat in the management
Of the party. Senator Cameron is said to
be in full sympathy with the movement.

The last national census showed that
there were in this country over $4,000
farms, each exceeding 1000 acres in size.
This was an increase in such farms of 800
per cent. in ten years, and in the two
wears since the last census was taken
there has been another large increase. OF
individual owners there are Sir George
Reed. 1900, 600 acres; Earl Of DunmOre,
1904 600 acres; Earl of Dunraven, $4,000
acres; Duke of Sutherland, 100000 acres:
Phillips, Marshal & Co., 100000 acres;
heirs of Col. Murphy, 100000 acres; II.
Disston, 100000 acres; Standard Oil
Company. 1000, 600 acres, and scores Of
others. Nine men own territory equal to
that of New Hampshire, Massachusetts
and Rhode Island combined. Then there are
the great railroad corporations, whose
free gifts of land from profligate Con-
crosses amount to upwards Of 10000, 900
acres. Eleven of these corporations have
been given 100, 600, 600 acres. The North
ern Pacific Road has received the biggest
slice, 1900, 900, and the grants have
ranged all the way from these figures
down TO 1000, 900 acres and less.

Public documents costing S2,OOO,O 600 are
distributed free each year 10 about 400
congressman so that each receives nearly
5000 worth. Many documents are prac-
tically worthless except as waste paper,
while others, such as agricultural re-
ports. have a constant quotable value at
Washington book stores, and both sorts
are sold by many Congressman that the

Scandal should be stopped, either by
smaller issue of documents or by an ar
rangement By which Congressman should
have their quota sent TO bona .fde con-

SERGEANT Ballantyne has been out in

people will agree with the learned Ser
jeant- however they differ with him as to
the merits of MOrmonism.

Killing the Goose.

The following from a Northern eX-
change, perhaps the New York Times,
may we'll be taken into consideration by
the press and people of some of the South
ern States:
The statisticians of Michigan boast of
the great progress that state has made
during the year which has just termi-
mated; and one of the most impressive cir
cumstances which they adduce is the
enormous amount of pine timber which
has been cut and converted into boards,
shingles and other forms of use. In fact,
the quantity of this timber is something
startling. 1t amounts to many thousand
millions Of feet.
This recalls the old fable of the goose
that laid the golden egg. The Michigan
people are happy over the fact that they
are DESTROYING their forests with such I'M
precedented rapidity. At this rate they
will soon have none left, and then, their
OfTense having been completed, their pun
ishment will begin. They will find that
Michigan without forests is a very differ
ent kind of country from that they have
been familiar with.
at is true that in region like that PENN
sula, surrounded by great lakes and with
out any range of mountains, the extreme
results which attend the destruction of
the woods i'm other lands may not be in
stantly experienced; yet the mischief will
be serious enough. How much wiser it
would be if, instead of at once and utterly
clearing out those immense pine woods,
they were thinned away in a reasonable
manner! Then there would be . supply
of lumber for the future as we'll as for the
present, and the Climate of the State would
suffer no deterioration; but now the time
viii soon arrive when Michigan will no
longer be able TO furnish pine timber even
for domestic consumption, and when the
farmers will suffer from both drOughts
and floods as they have never yet had to
suffer-"

the following paragraph concerning New

and free ballot:
1.-The leaders of the Republican party
admit SAYS a Rhode Island dispatch to
the New York Her0ld, that the nomina-
ton of Mr.. Sprague necessitates hard
work and the expenditure Of at least
5000, O00' This is considerably more than
$40 apiece for the highest Republican vote
ever cast in the State and about $40 apiece
for the Democratic vote for Hancock. If
we assume that half of the vote OF the
State in each party is cast from conviction
and not from purchase, and that one of
the other two quarters holds the balance
of power, 100000 would prove very
handsome largess distributed among the
six or seven thousand purchasable votes
necessary to the Republicans to carry the
State. As matter of fact, it is probably
not necessary TO buy quite as many as

A cable dispatch to the New York
Tribune of Saturday last from London,
speaking of the explosion at the Local
Government offices, says: scientific in
vestigations disprove the theory Of gas
explosion, and establish the certainty that
dynamite or a similar material was alone
capable Of producing such complete de-
struetiOn over an area so limited. Prof.
Huxley describes the floor of the room
where the main force was eXerted as
resembling the bottom of n cigar
box through which a man had
dashed his fist. The spot selected
indicates both the ignorance and
eOwardice Of the authors of the plot, as it
may be safely presumed that they in
tended to destroy the Home office, which
the Irish agitatOrs regard with peculiar
luminosity, as the centre of public au-
thOrity. This adiOins the Local Govern
ment office, but fronts on Whitehall, a
broad street, where the traffic is frequent
at all hours, while Charles street, where
is the entrance to the Local Government
office, is almost deserted at night. The
actual damage done was not great, though
from the immense number of windows
broken the scene appears one of great de-
.structiOn."
