Rights of Timber Cutters.

The Statesman says that G. F.
Bogue, special agent of the general
land Office, was recently in Boise
looking after applications to cut
timber. It is one of his duties to
examine all such applications and
pass upon the amount of ground
over which each applicant shall be
permitted to cut.
Some question has arisen regard
ing the rights of timber cutters and
settlers. Mr.. Bogue has the follow
ing letter from the department at
Washington which covers the mat
ter and which will be of interest
SrR-Replying to your letter Of Octo-
Der %, 1891, wherein you suggest that it
might be we'll in all cases where permits
are granted to inform the applicants that
settlers rights remain intact and must be
respected, and that no exclusive right to
cut timber from any lands named in a
permit, have to say that all permits
which mag issue from the Department to
any person, company or corporation,
granting the right to cut timber from any
of the public lands, will be based on
certain conditions, prominently are
First-That the rights of settlers who
have initiated valid claims will in no way
be interferred with. Second-That the
granting of such permit is in no sense a
withdrawal Of the land from valid settle
ment and entry, and that from the mo-
ment of such settlement and entry, the
permit becomes imperative a. to the
tracts so settled upon or entered, and
Third-That in no case is an exclusive
right to cut granted by such permit.
THos. H. CARTER, Commissioner.

DURING the last week Misses Alice
Mitchell and Lizzie Johnson, prom
inent society young ladies of Mem
phis, Tenn, took drive out in town
in a buggy and meeting a Miss
Freda Ward, Miss Mitchell alighted
from the buggy, seized Miss Ward
and instantly cut her throat from
ear to ear with razor. Springing
into the buggy again, she said to
Miss Johnson, "Drive on; I've done
it," when the latter drove hurriely
away. Since then both have been
arrested and indicted for murder
in the first degree. Miss Michele
parents are quite we'll off, while Miss
Wards are wealthy, SO long and
sternly contested trial is sure to
follow, in which Miss Johnson, al.
though she may have known moth.
ing of the murderous purpose Of
Miss Mitchell, will fare as badly az
the murderess. But had she left
the buggy when the deed was done
and thrown herself on the protec-
ton of the people in the street, as 8
sensible girl, being innocent, would
have done, she would have saved
her reputation and liberty, both o.
which her folly if not her crime
have sacrificed, besides jeoparding
her life. People should cultivate
presence of mind. The cause Of
the killing is not known.

CONGRESS has decided to adopt
the Springer method of attack upon
the Mckinley tariff, and destroy ii
by piecemeal instead of trying to
repeal it as whole. We will be
given free wool, free salt, free lum-
Der, free binding-twine, free cotton
ties, free coal, and if free coinage
be added to this list, the better con-
ditions sure to result, will be fol-
lowed before many years by such a
general freeing of international
trade and commerce as will not only
revive our shipping and ship build
ing but infuse new life and hope
into all branches of American in
dustry. The plan mapped out is a
patriotic one and will almost surely
succeed, because few Congressman
will dare to refuse their constitu-
ents the blessings that all know
must flow to the great majority
from free coal, free salt, free lum-
Der and the like. The proposition
is too plain to be misunderstood by
the common people and will not be
opposed by Congressman who
would retain their places.

Get Out---scat!

E. s. Dreyer, q wealthy Chicago
banker, who, it is said, devotes con-
siderable sums Of money to charity,
recently disguised himself as q
| needy person, and called upon the
organized charities for aid. His
first appeal for work was made to
the Chicago Relief and Aid Society,
where he was grufiy told to "get
out" Then he hunted up some
poor but honest men, and in COM
pany with them sought like aid
from other societies, but the only
proffer of assistance or money made
him was few cents that one of his
miserable companions offered him.
After making the tour Of the "char-
table, and benevolent" dens OF
thieves of the city, Mr.. Dreyer APP
peared in his real character and
gave substantial aid to the poor
men who had accompanied him on
his rounds; but he thinks not more
than 20 per cent of the money SUBJ
scribed for charity ever reaches
those for whom it is intended; and
we think his estimate very liberal
one. There are great many gen.
erous people in the world, through,
whose personal efforts and agency
many needy ones are assisted, but
we have yet to know of one good
or generous deed by any organized
benevolent or charitable society or
association. They receive great
sums of money and their preten-
tons are as great as is confiding
public's donations. Mr.. Dreyer
asks the authorities to investigate
the charity thieves who treated him
so stability, and it is time some
thing were done in the matter.
Stealing the money which benevo-
lence devotes to the starving poor
is the worst kind of stealing, and
yet we are satisfied it is the most
common and profitable kind. But
the best way after all is for every
man to do his own aims. We found
a young girl a few years ago being
brought up in house of i'll fame,
and going to the local secretary of
the Y. M. C. A., we asked him to in
terest the organization in securing
her removal and getting her home
among respectable people. "Well, )"
he replied, quite indifferently, II
will see what can do; but that is
not exactly in our line" Where
does society's baseness begin, and
where end?

a Sensible Thought.

Here is something, by Salt Lake
minister, so profoundly sensible
that it would do credit to an Emer-
son or q Hugo. How many, many
lives are lost to this world, their
humanity dwarfed and crushed out
of them, who by more intelligent
application of the doctrine of sal
vation might be saved to society
and usefulness, no one can know.
But we should know by this time
that to SO live that each shall do
his best for himself and for all, is
to live right:
Mr.. Utter's sermon at the Theater was
upon "The Revival Theory of Life and
Salvation" There was theory OF life
underlying the revivals that are had IN
many Christian churches that is false
from beginning to end, false in every par
ticular, aud against that theory he wished
to speak. He had nothing against other
churches or the people who carry them
on, but that which is false is not good for
any body, and he exhorted his hearers In
80 far as they agreed with him that this
theory of life and human nature IS an er-
roneous one, to reject it and cry, "Down
with it, away with i'll"
This theory asserts that man is fallen
being, that, az tho New England primer
phrased it, .In Adams fall we sinned
ALL" and that we are all therefore corrupt
and depraved by nature. The truth is
that man is not q fallen creature, but q
rising, progressive improving one, and
this truth in general way is now almost
universally accepted. History is the story
of the improvement of the human family
in all their ways of life, powers and at
tainments. On the other hand there Is
the Bible story of Adam and Eve in the
garden. But we neither know who wrote
this story, nor who wrote the Pentateuch
in which We find it. The story seems to
come from Babylonia and it came into
the Pentateuch when that book was com
piled, which was about the time of Ezra
1t should be regarded as a poem, and no
more taken as history than we take the
poems that bear the name Of Homer
This theory of the fall of man is out Of
harmony with the universally accepted
theory of evolution. And yet take this
foundation stone away ant the whole
scheme of life and salvation upon which
religious revival usually proceeds falls
to the ground. There is no need for the
atoning sacrifice of the Son of God, nc
reason for eternal punishment, no danger
from which we may escape by trusting
in the merits of the Lord Jesus Christ.
"Salvation" Is restored to its natural
meaning Of safe living, saving the life for
good uses instead Of wasting it. 1t is not
going to heaven when you die, it is living
q pure and heavenly life in this world.

Mr.. SPRINGER thinks Congress
will loan the Worlds Fair people
s5,OOO,OOO instead of giving it to
them. Now, if Mr.. Springer would
inform the public who authorized
Congress to tax the people to get
money to loan out, he would con-
tribute to the happiness of large
numbers who are anxiously seeking
information on that subject. Our
federal constitution was designed as
we have understood, for the guild
ance of Congress and the people.
It's trainers intended that it should
be lived up to that trouble and
wrong might be avoided and as it
nowhere provides for the taxation
of the many to enrich the few, we
believe all such taxation unlawful
and wrong. But being a statesman,
Mr.. Springer may know better, and
may be able to enlighten US. If so,
we would like to hear from him.

AN amendment to the constitu-


AN amendment to the constitu-
ton of the United States prohibit
ing polygamy has been proposed.
The uses of such an amendment are
not very apparent, and we suspect
there is niger in the fence. Po-
lygamy is bigamy, and the consti-
tuition as it is gives ample scope for
all needed legislation to destroy it ;
and an amendment relating to po-
lygamy should be thoroughly scru-
tinized before being adopted, lest its
provisions be intended to take away
the existing safeguards of the citi.
zens' liberties. There is no need
nor place for such an amendment.
