THE HOPE OF DEMOCRATS.
They Intend to Keep the Tariff Issue a,
the Front.

The feeling among the democrats in the
House is that it is the purpose of the republi-
cans to use the elections bill as an irritant to
attract attention from their tariff bill. They saw
that the republicans with that bill as their
platform cannot afford to enter the CAMPAIGN
this fall with tariff the issue, and that it il
their purpose to arouse as much sectional bit
terness as possible, SO that they can fight under
the bloody shirt. As far as it is in
their power to do SO the democratic leaders
propose to hold the majority up to the tariff
question, and to force them into the campaipu
defending the Mckinley bill.
With this issue they are entirely satisfied that
they will have a large majority in the next
House, whether or not the federal election bill
becomes law.
They are pleased with the nomination of
Pattison in Pennsylvania. chiefly because thew
think it is an indication that Mr.. Cleveland will
have the delegation from that state at the next
dem0cratic convention.
Every success of the friends Of Mr.. Cleye-
land or of those who are reckoned as his
friends finds cordial applause among the demo-
Gratis in Congress. The talk Of Hill some
folks have been indulging in since his
at the Capitol The controlling forces of the
democrats, as represented in Congress. were
allied with Mr.. Cleveland when his tariff
message was sent in. They are loyal to him

IMPORTANT DECISION AS TO INDIAN TIMBER
LASDs.-The timber lands held by the Indians
IN Wisconsin and other parts of the west have
been objects of interest to lumber men for
some time. Heretofore the Indian Depart
ment, through the Attorney General, has held
that the Indians could not sell their timber.
not even the dead timber, standing or fallen,
lhe erection Of saw mills on these lands under
leases from the Indians was also not permitted.
Attorney General Miller. however has rendered
decision which holds that the removal of
dead timber, particularly when standing and
threatening the safety of trees near il, is a
benefit and not a waste. He also holds that a
license can be made to allow an outsider to
erect saw mills on lands owned by Indians.
Under this decision the Indian Bureau can give
permission to the Indians to sell dead timber
and also to make revocable contract for the
erection of saw mills on their lands
