The Forest Republican. [volume] (Tionesta, Pa.) 1869-1952, 1892-01-27

The New York Post calls attention to
the evidence that "not only in western
Massachusetts, but even in Maine, the
substitution of coal for wood as fuel has
goIhe so far as to make perceptible diff
fer ence in the quantity of trees that
need to be cut every year. The same
story comes from other parts of New
England In New Hampshire an au-
thqrity upon the subject says that coal is
fast taking the place of wood, even
in the kitchen of the farmhouse, and
that as a consequence cordwood is losing
its value. What.is still more important,
it is claimed that the lumbermen are
exercising more Judgment in their
methods of work. A partner in a New
Hampshire company is quoted by the
Boston Herald as saying that by the
mythods now used the timber will repro
duce itself faster than it is cut off.
Many of the larger companies have
adopted plan of operation that forbids
the cutting of trees girthing less than a
specified number of inches, aud so the
"timber tract" is kept good. One ele-
ment 10 the change of system is the fact
that the demand for cord-wood is dimin.
isAing, so that the railroad companies
no longer put premium on the destruc-
of forests by buying all the wood

A very interesting fact has recently
been instanced in that the education Of
the blind in France was introduced from
America, and from the methods origi-
mated and taught by that great philan-
thropist, DIR. Samuel G. Howe, to his
corps of teachers in Perkins Institute,
from which, for a long time, the teach
ers Of the blind in France were re-
cruited.

NAPOLEON ON FREE TRADE.

We have given Jefferson's and Jack.
sons views on the tariff and shown that
they both favored the pro; ective policy
When South Carolina attempted to
nullify the tariff law declaring it uncon'
stitutional.And Jackson sw0re "By
the Eternal" they must submit. The
Chicago Convention passed the same
old South Carolina resolution declaring
a protective tariff nconstitutiOnaI,a and
still claim to be Jtfforsonian and Jack
sonian Democrats.
Napoleon when in exile at st. Helena
talked freely over his mistakes and his
successes. In one of these converse
tions he stated the whole question in
his usual clear style. Holland. said he,
which is destitute of agriculture and
which has trade only of transit and
commission should be free from all
fetters and barriers; but France which
is rich in every sort of production
should necessarily guard against the
lmportations Of rival, and against the
cupidity, egotism and indifference of
mere importers. Experience is the
true wisdom of nations. Agriculture
stands first, manufactures next and
foreign trade last in Importance.
Agriculture is the soul and first basis
of the empire. Manufactures second
for the comfort and happiness of the
people.
Third, foreign trade for the surplus
of agriculture and manufactures; for
eign trade, which is infinitely inferior
to agriculture and manufactures takes
a subordinate place in country like
France.
Foreign trade is made for agriculture
and manufactures not the two latter
for the former.
Free trade is good for a confined
country dependent on foreign COM
merce like Holland, but not 80 for a
rich and productive country like
France"
What Napoleon pointed out as the
correct Iule applying to France has
even greater force in the United States.
Free trade which Is good for Eng
land is bad for America, because our
conditions are entirely different.

WHACKING TIE PREACHERS

The Sigourney Review is a Demo
cratic paper of the Bourbon sort. 1t il
warm supporter of Mr.. White, and
what William says may be taken as q
stagger at the whole truth. Mr.. White
spoke at the dedication of the Tiiden
club room in that town last Saturday
evening. The club has a room on the
second floor and the use Of a basement
with an ice box. This is what the Re
view says about Fred's lambasting of
the preachers:
His arraignment of the preachers
for the part they took in last falls
campaign was rather caustic, and has
exclIed some comment, Dut like the ad-
verse criticism we have frequently met
with concerning certain articles in the
Review, 1t ali goes to pieces when we
ask the critic why he don't stop his
paper? A man who don't take paper
or vote for candidate is up q stump

do about it, when he Is doing his beef.

hustings, though they bad to suffer

and the man who imagines that the
world Is laying its hand on its mouth
and its mouth in the dust tor fear that
its whispered thought may hurt the
feelings Of the sensational and political
preachers. doesn't read the newspapers
Of to-day"
We quote all that is said about the
matter, so that there can be no misrepre.
sentation claimed.
OF course, free speech Is to be monop-
olized by all others but these preach
ers. They can sail along on howery
beds Ct ease, but they must never open
their mouths on any question that the
Democratic party has taken a particu.
lar hold on. 1t used to be so in anti
slavery days. The preacher then who
spoke word for the shackled slaves
OF the South was political preacher,
and the proper subject for Democratic
abuse, insult and outrage. 1t is so now.
When preacher hits crime-breeding
and hell-tilling thing like the saloon,
now under the care and fostering pro-
lection of the Democratic party, he be-
comes a political preacher. and catches
harkee from all the fellows who care
no more for churches than the devil
does for the lack Of ventilation In bis

WHO PATS THE TAX

The Keokuk Gate City takes the fol-
lowing local item from the columns OF
the bowling free trade Democrat OF
that city, which sings the song of "tte
tariff Is tax" in all the keys. Read
the item, and bear in mind that it is
duplic ated in every Iowa town that has
such dealers. It is done in Oskalooss
Ottumwa, Cedar Rapids and elsewhere;
"S. E. Carey, of this city, and of the
firm forty years ago of Carey 8 Kill
bourne, who were the first in Iowa to
import china and queensware direct
from foreign countries, has kept the
custom up every year since. To-day
Mr.. Carey is in receipt of large in
voice from England of Alfred Meak-
ems handsomely decorated semi-por-
celain dinner sets, consisting of 100, 102
and 104 pieces, which he is now selling
at $40 each. These same sets were sold
before and up to the passage of the Nc.
Kinley bill at $12 each, and cheap at
that. Those wishing goods from first
hands and at the very lowest price, will
do well to call at Mr.. Carey's store"
The Oskaloosa herald., 1892-08-25

The Ottumwa Democrat, publishes
with apparent approval, an editorial
paragraph taken from the Memphis
Appeal, in which the statement is made
that the large pension appropriations
and payments will be continued as long
as the Republicans are in power, and
that the only way out will be to drive
the Republicans out, install the Demo-
Gratis, when the matter would be
remedied, in the interest of the peo.
ple."
The Memphis organ Of the ex.Oon-
federacy, repeated by its Ottumwa
echo, only advances the real idea held
by these fellows on the pension ques-
tion. All the pretense of love and ad-
miration for the Union soldier. is, in
the lusty vernacular of a Missouri
Senator, "damed ROT" and never meant
anything else at any time. This is in
dicated by the votes in Congress, where,
every pension measure but two had
Democratic majority against it, and
one of these was the Mexican bill,
which went south most largely, and
the other one which related to widows.
The OttumWa Democrat dare not
take dozen representative old fash
iOned Democrats into room, and take
down their honest opinion on the SOL
dier question, and print their ideas.
The fellows who made up the nasty
rank and file of the Knights of the
Golden Circle, the Sons of Liberty, the
Shiny Copperheads, and vermin of that
sort hold to the same ideas to-day as
they did when they came out of the
brush, wearing butternut pins and
hurrahing for JEFF Davis. These are
lovely birds to act as protectors to the
interests of the Union soldier in any
way-and yet these give heart and life
to the Democracy of the present day.
They have hept up the faith of hate,
and cheered every act of oppression
that deVilish ingenuity could suggest.
The Ottumwa Democrat, in this
quasi-endOrsement of the Appeals hoot
at Union soldiers and their present
care, may ind it troublesome matter
to explain the position to the few SOL
diers who yet train in its lineg- through

Republican CamUaign Prsuospres

The Republican national platfoI N
was quite lengthy and it is little Diff
hculC sometimes to PICK out of cam.
paign planks Just what they really de-
clare for. This is what the platform
stands for when boiled down to the
briefest explicit statement of it:
We believe in the American doctrine
of protection.
We believe that articles, except lux
uries, which cannot be produced in the
United States, should be admitted free
Of duty.
We demand that on all imports com.
peting with the products of American
labor, duties should be levied equal to
the difference between wages at home
and abroad.
We ask the people to pronounce a
verdict upon the cowardly course of
the democrats in attacking the tariff
piecemeal.
We believe in reciprocity, which has
opened new markets for the prod
Of the workshop and the farm.
We believe in the use Of both gold
and silver money.
We demand that every dollar, wheth.
er Of gold, silver or paper, shall be equal
to every other dollar.
We believe in an international con-
ference to secure parity Of gold and
silver throughout the world.
We demand that every citizen, rich
or poor, native or foreign born, white
or black, shall be permitted to cast one
ballot and have it counted as he cast it.
We propose to keep on fighting till
we have honest elections in every state.
We favor the revival of our foreign
commerce In American ships.
We demand a navy to protect our
interests and maintain the honor of
our flag.
We demand that arbitrary combina-
tiOns of capital to control trade condi-
tions shall be rigidly regulated.
We believe in the wise and consist
ent civil service reform.
We believe in admitting all the ter
ritOries to the union as soon as they are
qualified for entrance.
We re-afirm the Monroe doctrine.
We demand the restriction of GRIM
inai, pauper and contract immigration.
We demand that the employees Of
railroads, mines and factories, shall be
protected against all needless dangers.
We sympathize with the oppressed
In every land. =
We demand freedom of speech and
of the press.
We believe in popular education.
We favor the construction and con-
troll of the Nicaragua canal by Ameri-
cans.
We believe that the Columbian ex-
position should be made a success
worthy of the dignity and progress of
the nation, and that the government
should aid in this if necessary.
We sympathize with all legitimate
efforts to promote temperance and
morality.
We pledge to the loyal veterans of
the war Of the union the recJgnition
that is theirs by right.
We are proud of President Harrison's
magnificent administration.
And we propose to give the country
another administration just as good for
the next four years.
