Preservation OF Timber.
Justice?

That is good counsel to miners. lumber
men and others which is given by the
Forestry division of the department of
Agriculture, in relation to the avoiding
of waste and the needless destruction of
timber.
Anyone who has been on the mountain
heights and canyon sides where lumber
ing is done and wood is cut, knows some
thing of the waste that is prevalent there.
Young trees are hewed down that might
be spared with little care, and others
not suitable for the iumberman's purpose
destroyed if at all in the way of his work.
Only necessity justifies this destruction
and caution against it is in order.
Much more carelessness with far greater
disastrous results comes from leaving
fires in the standing timber. A camper
over night, by leaving his fire unquenched
in the morning, may start confagration
which will sweep away immense quanti-
ties of valuable timber and leave obstruc-
ton as we'll as waste and thus cause a
double injury.
Worse than that is setting trees on fire
in the mountains purposely, which has
been often done and which ought to be Sc
verely punished. No end of waste has
been caused by criminality or carelessness
in the forests of the Wasatch mountains,
and it ought to be stopped everywhere.
Lumbermen and miners should give heed
to this and do all they can to protect the
timber.
The department proposes to present a
law for the preservation of the forests Of
the country, at the next session of Con-
gress. This is necessary movement.
At the same time great care should be
taken in its construction, for while the

The ASSOCIATED Press reports from
Hawaii have all along had an annexation
bias, and this is quite apparent in the
account this morning OF the present situa-
ton at Honolulu. 1t seems the provis-
Ional government has established press
censorship, and has undertaken to punish
American residents for statements pub
lished il the United States, which, of
course, viii not be submitted to. Com
missioner BLoUNT has promulgated his
instructions from the stale department,
which, in brief, are to the effect that
whilst this country will not dictate to
Hawaii what government 1t shall have,
we will not acquiesce in any foreign in
tervention. If, with the neutrality of
the United States thus made known, the
provisional government can maintain it
self, that viii be the one recognized; but

the freedom of the press, it is not present.

A Shameful Decention.

According to special dispatch to The
HERALD from Boise, Idaho, a number
of workingnlen now in that city have
been swindled by Salt Lake employ
ment agency. They had paid $6.50 each
to secure railroad work to last all sum
mer, and on their arrival at the place
designated they found that the work they
were guaranteed had been finished, and
they were left stranded in a strange town.
From the representations made, the
agency which took that money had no
authority to send any men to Boise for
such work, and the Mayor Of that city
has communicated with the Mayor Of
Salt Lake asking him to investigate and
stop this nefarious business.
We hope this will be attended to vigor-
ously and without delay. If the facts are
as stated the deceptive labor agency ought
to be proceeded against under the Grim
inal law. Men who will thus impose
upon their fellows should be prosecuted
for obtaining money under false pre-
fences. A labor bureau that really finds
employment for idle hands is a public
blessing. But any concern that betrays
working people in the manner described
ought to be broken up and its villainy
exposed.
Working people should beware OF gilt
tering inducements held cut by lrrespon-
sible parties to furnish lucrative employ
ment, and never part with their money on
the mere say-so of any firm or agency
Proof ought to be had of their reliability
and of the reality of the employment and
its continuance, before money is parted
with for its procurement.
The case now under consideration is
one of heartless dishonesty. The victims
of the swindle have not only paid cut
their money for nothing, but they have
been deluded into removal to far of
place where they are not known an6
where they have no means of support.
The extreme penalties of the law should BIZ
inflicted upon their betrayers, Will any
thing definite be done to bring them tc

GLADSTONE AND the Prince Of Wales
are to dine together next Saturday, and
this circumstance is sure in some quar-
ters TO be thought to have special sig
nificance. There was story that it was
VICToRIA's determination to abdicate on
her recent birthday anniversary. and
there has been a revival OF the hints that
a mental weakness derived from her
grandfather, GEORGE III, has OF late be-
ciouded her brain; but the strong proba-
bility is that these rumors proceed from
too fertile brains, and that the Queen
Will not relinquish the crown as long as
she is living.

Religion Against Law.

The Methodist Foreign Missionary So
ciety, in appealing to the court of heaven
for redress in behalf Of the Chinese in
this country, invite the whole church to
join in carrying this case to a Divine
tribunal. That is perhaps all right from
their standpoint, and may be within the
lines of religious rights and liberties.
But they decide that the law is 'un
righteous legislation, and what they
appeal to heaven for is to bring pressure
to bear on the government that it 'smay
be led to just aud right action in this
emergency, y which simply means non
enforcement of the 'unrighteous legis-
lation.''
We have been locking for some out
bursts of Indignation from those extreme
advocates OF silent submission to every
law, particularly when it has been pro-
nounced constitutional by the highest
tribunal in the land, but we have not
heard a word from them yet in refer
ence to it.
There are other religious denomina-
tions besides The Methodists who have
officially and enthusiastically decided
against the rightfuluess of the law in
question. Is this within the proper pur-
view OF religious authority?
While the Christian denominations are
appealing to their Deity for-the obstruct-
ing of the law, the Chinese are also APP
pealing to their Joss for the same pur-
pase. For once Christian and Heather
are Joined in faith and suppIication, and
such measure of success as shall be
achieved will be equally claimed no
doubt by either party.
| THE HERALD is not taking any side
against the prayers to Joss or to Jehovah.
1t merely draws attention to the use of
religion in opposition to law, that the
sticklers for such extreme separation OF
the twain in one particular direction, may
see the opportunity that is afforded for
their structures in more extended fields.
Church and state ought to be kept sepa-
rate in all sects.

A Hole in the Law.

Some of the extreme anti Chinese papers
are finding fault with and ridiculing Judge
LAcoMBE, of New York, for his ruling
under the GEARY act. Ny Lock was ar
rested and taken before the Judge, charged
with neglecting to comply with the GEARY
act in the matter of registration. The de-
cision of the court was: ~It is ordered
that the said Ny LOCK be and he is hereby
discharged from the custody of the United
States Marshal, and is ordered deported
from the United States whenever provi-
sion for such deportation shall be made
by the proper authorities. -
Judge LAcoMBE is called a tDogberry''
and other pet names, and it is asked:
''What would be thought OF Judge who
would sentence a prisoner to be confined
in Jail for violating the law, and then dis
charge him from custody until provision
was made for his Recommendations
The mistake in this criticism lies in
comparing two cases which are not par
allel. In committing convict to prison
nothing stands in the way of his convey
ance. The law has made full provision
for it in all its details. In arresting a
Chinaman for not registering, the officers
OF the law are left helpless after his con-
viction, because the law appears fatally
defective in its utter silence as to the
means and manner of his deportation and
by whom it is to be conducted.
1t is mistake to suppose that,
as some papers suggest, the Chinaman
SO convicted can be imprisoned for
a year, under the third section OF
she GEARY act, for that only applies to
Chinese laborers who have come here in
violation of law and are found to be un-
lawfully in the United States. NY LOCK-
and his countrymen in the same condi-
ton are lawfully in the United States,
and the certificate which they could have
had on proper application was designed
as proof of their lawful residence here.
The years imprisonment is Tor another
class of offenders.
Judge LACoMBE then, seems to have

breach OF promise. 1t turned out after
the two were engaged that one object the
man had IN getting married was to be
walked at 1 O'Clock in the morning to go

he wanted was not wife but an alarm
clock. There was some stipulation also
in regard to children, upon which they
did not agree, and the young man quit
coming. The jury thought the disagree
ments belonged to the post-marital sea-
son, and gave the fair plaintiff twenty
per cent. of her demand.

Antarctic Expeditions.

The HERALD drew attention some time
ago to the return of some Scotch vessel
from the Antarctic regions with mum
Der of seal skins on board, about which
they were very reticent. 1t was inferred
from this that sealing might be found
profitable in the Antarctic seas as well as
in the opposite region, where there is so
much dispute over the business.
1t is now reported that four vessels have
returned to Dundee which had been on
whaling expedition in the Antarctic seas
and that they had made extensive catches
of seals. This confirms the report
formerly given. 1t is suggested, how
ever, that the Kind of seals captured were
most probably hair seals which are taken
Tor their oil. instead OF the fur seals which
are caught for their skins.
However this may be, the fact that
whaling and sealing has been successful
in the Antarctic seas will direct attention
to that comparatively unknown region
and develop its fishing and other re-
resources. Perhaps, too, it may provoke
the adventurous to get up expeditions to
the South Pole as an Offset to the Polar
mania that Rms in the opposite direction.
The dangers of the Antarctic ocean may
have been greatly exaggerated and it is
not improbable that attention being
turned thitherward by the sealing and
whaling voyages, South Polar parties
may become new fad for the hardy sous
OF the sea-
