THE TIMBER QUESTION.

! How to protect forest growth and
regulate the indiscrimiuate destruc
ton OF timber in this country con
stitntes a problem which assumes
new Importance with each passing

have considered the question. and
writers have sought to direct public
attention to the evils which must
inevitably follow the wanton waste
OF timber land. Nevertheless, the

HIDE HAMPTONis POOR POLITICS.

WIDE HlNPTON'S POOR POLITICS.
Ex-Governor Wade Hampton, United States
Senator from South Carolina comes ont en-
Enthusiastically for Senator Bayard Of Delaware,
as a candidate for President On the Demo
cratic ticket. He says he is in accord with
the financial theories East and South, and
would be splendid man for the people. He
makes the strange proposition that the nomi-
nation Of candidate for President be re-
ferred solely to the doubtful states, as he is
pleased to call. New York, New Jersey, Con-
necticut. Ohio, Indiana and California. Ad-
hitting all the states named to be doubtful
for the Democracy, which they are not, it is
not likely that all the other states would sub
nit to disinfranchisemen in selecting a
candidate, and permit 4 segment OF the
Union to designate the candidate.
Besides certain portion of the Republi-
can party, who greatly affect the Haunting Of
a certain ensanguined under garment in
national campaigns would greatly rejoice in
the nomination of a gentleman whose ante
cedents would reopen the issues of the civil
war. 1t being gently suggested to Senator
Hampton that Senator Bayard is southern
man, he declared with emphatic geographi-
cal obliviousness that Delaware is not a
southern state; and it being further sug-
gested that Senator Bayard had made adisloy-
al speech in antebellum days, Mr.. Hampton
replied with warmth, that ''that speech was a
brave, good speech, made in great effort to
prevent bloody war. would not be afraid
to go before the country with it. There is
nothing disloyal anywhere in it."
Senator Hampton is not a success in Sc
Letting presidential candidates. What might
not be regarded as disloyal speech at the
South might be ineradicably distasteful at the
North. The speech referred to it is quite
likely was not ''disloyal'' to the South. As
the Democracy do not propose to nominate
a candidate to be defeated it is not likely
Mr.. Bayard's name will go before the con-
vention to he held in Chicago, july Sth.

HEAVY wEAr HER AT SEA,
A Row in Dr.. Newman Church.

New YORK, March 3.-The trustees of DR..
Newman's church held a stormy meeting to-
night The first sign of trouble showed itself
when Hopkins, after fruitessy endeavoring to
offer resolution to appoint some ushers, re-
marked ''that the bloody flag seemed to have
been hung out, and everybody was spelling for a
row. 1t was then announced that the church
owed $4,000 a note due on April 1st,
and there was no money in the
treasury to meet-it, after paying DR.. Newman s
salary. Hopkins proposed that the receipts be
devoted to the payment of the debt and re-
mainder paid to Newman in lieu of his salary.
Trustee Corley remarked that such a remark
could only come from a Ranneyite, to which
Hopkins retorted, by calling Corley 'tramp and
idiot, who didn't know any better than
to use such language" Corley replied in the
same entertaining manner and for few
moments it was thought the meeting would have
to adjourn to the sidewalk to fight it out. Peace
was finally restored without recourse to violence,
but no further business of importance was trans
acted and the board adjourned, after instructing
the secretary not to show the books of the
church to any person, without permission of the
trustees.

A Harmonious Meeting.

CHICAGO, ILL.,, March ga meeting of the
Northwestern Traffic association and the Central
Iowa Traffic association was held jointly to-day
full representation was in attendance. The
Rock Islands notice of withdrawal from the
Northwestern Traffic association, and the Chicago
& Northwestern's notice of withdrawal from the
Genital Iowa association were the only subjects
considered. The meeting was harmonious. 1t
was agreed to continue the existence of the asso-
citation indefinitely, it being technically under
stood, that the date for the taking of
effect of the above notices of withdrawal,
March 6, should be indefinitely postponed uutil q
more satisfactory organization be effected, or
system of pools devised to take the place of the
present association. The general freight agents
continued in session couple of hours this after
noon, after the adjournment of the meeting of
the general managers. A pooling system seems
to be the most favored Commissioner Carman
states that immediate steps will be taken to ami
cably adjust the causes which originally led to
the notices of Withdrawals. Other meetings at
an early day are probable.

Tice President cakes Talks.
Especial Telegram to the Globe. |

FARGO, March 3.-Vice President Cakes,
of the Northern Pacific, passed east tonight
from his western trip, and reports finding the
condition of the road better than he expected.
He was asked if there was any basis for the re-
port that he was about to resign the management
to go to New York to engage in stock -specula-
tions and said there was no truth in
it. He did not know how ii
originated unless in the wishes of papers at Min
neapolis He expected to remain in his present
position and bring his family to st. Paul in June.
He knw of no reason to suppose that Mr.. Lam
born would leave the road. He reports travel
setting in very heavily toward the coast and the
new mines with quite rush to the latter. He
said that the shops would be
filed as the requirements of business demanded
and he anticipated large traffic over the whole
line, for in a few weeks the immigration to
Dakota and Montana woulu set in in large vol
ume, 1t would be the policy of the road to do
all in its power to secure settlements along its
line. The attempt to deprive the road of its
lands he thought was mere demagogism and
would amount to nothing.

THE London Times is getting excited over
this dynamite business. Its leading article
of two or three days ago was to the effect that
this country is to blame for the course it has
taken in permitting it to become the refuge
of conspirators and the center for the hatch
ing of reasonable and murderous schemes
against friendly power. It says that the
time has arrived to address q strong remon=
STRANGE to the American government against
the continuance of this state of things, and
winds up with the assertion that the demand
is one that civilized nation is bound not to
disregard. This utterance has just
flavor of menace, and may be fairly re-
garded as promising something much strong
er in case such a remonstrance should not
meet with recognition. Surprising all to be
true in regard to the attitude of this govern
ment towards Irish dynamiters, it is yet far
less to be condemned than the position of
the British government toward us during
our civil war. Canada, in particular, occu-
pied a position far more reprehensible than
that of this government at the present time.
Admitting all to be true that is claimed by
the London newspaper, the English people
