Life of Timber.

The Northern Pacific railway, through
its bridge and engineering department,
has inaugurated system OF keeping
records on the timber used by it that will
in very few years be invaluable. All
timber that goes in hereafter will be
made matter of record, 80 that its term
of service can be ascertained and in time
an approximate estimate can be made on
the life of our timber, that not only will
be Of great value to the railway, but also
to all consumers, for doubtless the rail-
way company will be glad to furnish any
information to the public that it may
acquire. About the only record now on
the life Of ties and timber from this
section is the unwritten history that has
been passed along from engineer to road
master or bridge superintendent, and,
like all history OF this sort, is not very
complete or reliable, though often inter-
esting.-Wealth OF the Northwest.

A CRIME COMMITTED ON THIS
Looking Over the Border.

Special to the Gazette.
WASHINGTON, June 13.-There is 4 trial
IN progress in chihuahua, Mex. the out
come of which is looked for with a good
deal of interest by state department
officials. A party of lawless Mexicans
crossed over into Texas and attacked a
ranch for the purpose of robbery, killing
the rancher and wounding his son. On
their return to Mexican soil they were al
rested by Chihuahuan authorities and put
on trial N Mexico for a murder committed
in the United States. This brings up
again, though in a more agreeable form,
the question of extraditional jurisdiction
claimed by Mexico. and SO vigorously dis
puted by Secretary Bayard in the Cutting
case, Cutting was arrested in Mexico for
libeling Mexican citizen in the United
States. Under the United States law no
person can be tried here for an offense
committed in foreign country. The
Mexican law is different. 1t permits the
trial of offenders captured in Mexico for
offenses committed outside the teri itory. If
the trial of the alleged murderers at
Chihuahua should result in their conviction
and punishment for the crime against the
United States citizens, perpetrated in the
United States. it might lead to the consid-
GRAFTON of an extradition treaty between the
United States and Mexico for mutual pre-
vention and punishment of crime on the
border.

Some idea of the extravaganza of the last
congress, even for its first session, may be
gathered from the fact that the difference
in the next debt of the United States for
eleven months from July l. 1890, to June
10, 1891, has only been 81, 645, S62
This is $40, 500 900 less than the demands for
sinking fund payments. The demands were
met in full. but they were met from the lib
eral surplus which came over from Cleve
lands time, and from the SD, 900, 900 of the
bunk note redemption fund, which was con-
verted by an act of congress into treasury
cash. In the four months past only one of
tho four debt statements has shown de-
crease, and the increase in four months has
been s.. IA. 1863.

The Silver Question.

The silver question has caused the presi-
dent of late TO do a deal of hard thinking
He wants to be reelected, and he realizes
that the free coinage sentiment in Republi-
can ranks is very strong. This is the eX-
PLANTATION of the rumors which are afioat
regarding the promise of the president
while in Colorado TO approve the free coin
gress. The president apparently did
not go quite SO far. bnt there
is reason to believe he has
expressed disposition to sign the bill pro-
viding for free coinage of American silver
mines. He has been discussing the subject
for hours with his intimate friends. and he
seems TO feel that something must be done
to placate the silver producing state. His
supreme effort will be to put off the re-
sponsibility of signing or vetoing the
free coinage bill. He is hoping
that the conservative Democrats of
the senate VIII come TO his
relief and defeat the free coinage PROPOSE
ton there. If free coinage was to pass
both houses business interests would be
subjected 10 period of doubt and anxiety
as to its fate The earnest protest of the
business men might restore the presidents
backbone to something like its firmnesS
of last winter. He was wavering
upon the question, and wavering becauee
he sees strong sentiment in his party for
free coinage He is not concerned that his
chances relied on would not be good if he
vetoed, even if Cleveland were the Dem
ocratic candidate. The presidents theory
in regard to this is that the Democrats
would vote their ticket with their old time
loyalty, in spite of their views on
silver coinage, while many Republicans
would drift into the third party because of
its declaration for free silver.

1T is no secret that Cleveland's letter
excited considerable feeling against him in
some parts of the country, and very copsid-
erably increased his popularity in some
other parts. Whether in the end it will
prove advantageous or disastrous to him, is
question which no one can determine. It
would, in my opinion, be exceedingly bad
policy to permit the silver question TO be-
come paramount one in 1892 1t is aues-
