TIMBER CUTTING REGULATIONS.

The Great Falls Tribune seems to be
very much worried, and unnecessarily
so, over the recent timber cutting g
lations. With persistent obstinacy and
lamentable ignorance, for which the
Tribune is becoming notorious, that
sheet, almost the only one in the Dem
ocratic party of the state, continues to
talk about monopolies and other sense
less things in connection with these
regulations. Had it desired to know
the facts, it might have addressed a
letter of inquiry to the land depart
ment at Washington, which would
have elected all the information de-
sired, and have saved the editor of the
Tribune a great deal of worry about
the matter. We are informed by an
attorney of this place that on June %
he addressed a letter to the commits
sioner of the general land Office con-
tanning this inquiry: "Will permits
sion be granted to several individuals
to cut within the limits of the same
boundary lines, or does the permission
give one the exclusive right to cut
within the limits described BY letter
"P" Of July 18th Commissioner Carter
replied to the question AS follows:
Permission will undoubtedly he given
to several individuals to cut within the
limits Of the same boundary lines"
This seems to dispose of Bro. Searles'
objections most effectnally, but we
have long since ceased To hope that he
would be convinced against his will by
any array of proof. Facts are trouble
some things to mos people, but they
do not bother the editor of the Tribune.
who manufactures his own facts, and
then swears by them. Such a course
sometimes wins as q criminal defense,
but it ought TO be beneath the dignity
of a public educator, as the Tribune
editor claims to be. IL is about time
that a little sense was applied to the
construction of such matters, and an
editor who has no sense should not at
tempt to construe such regulations,
for, besides misleading the general pub
lie, such nonsense might prove very
detrimental to some lumberman, who
foolishly acted on the Information"
thus conveyed.

A letter from Commissioner Carter
in reference to the cutting of timber
on the public domain will be found
elsewhere. The regulations apply to
parties who go into the mountains to
cut green timber for fuel with the in
tention OF supplying amarket, but not
Tor private use. There can be no dis
tinction in cutting for lumber or for
fuel, when the same is for sale.

In the death of James Russell
inst, America lost an illustrious citi-
zen and a literary genius. He held
many important positions during his
life. and filled them all with credit to
himself and the American people. As
a poet he ranked along with Whittier,
Longfellow, and Holmes. The de-
ceased was born at Cambridge on the
I'D of February, 1913, and was there
fore ~ years of age al the time of his
death.

John Seitz, the candidate of the ALI
ance party in Ohio, was a lifelong
Democrat up to 1877. Two years later
he was the Greenback-Labor candidate
for governor. He is not likely to draw
very largely on the Republican vote Of
Ohio. The platform of the party is of
the crazy-quilt order, which only needs
a glance to be rejected by sensible
men. Such catchy expressions as
"We hold that labor is the basis Of all
wealth" will delude no N OF course
there is very little wealth in this coun-
try hat has not been created by the
labor of some one. But there are
plenty of instances in the world where
labor created no wealth. 1t requires
intelligence and capital to conduct en-
terprises so hat labor will find profit
able employment. Labor alone might
prove fruitless. If m~isdirected it brings
about a worse condition han idleness.
Every man expects and demands rec
ompense for his toll. The fact is labor,
capital, and intelligence are triplets,
Joined together by a strong ligament,
and they move together to keep

Senator German was red hot in favor
of the free coinage of silver when he
thought the passage Of such a bill
through congress would embarrass the
Republican president; but when a
proposition was made to insert n free
coinage plank in the Maryland Demo-
cratic platform the other day he
squelched it in short order. Votes, not
principles, are the regulators of Cor
mans conduct.

he whether the long headed farmers

There is a bottomless chasm between
the platforms of the Democrats of Ma

the latter in their state platforms de-
clare for the free coinage of silver and
the former against it; and yet it is pos
