1t is evident that, unless there shall be
q considerable increase OF demand for
lumber in October and November, there
will be a surplus OF the coarse grades OF
lumber remaining at the mills winch
will be somewhat burdelisome to the
men who viii have to carry 1T over
winter The situation i'll tins respect
on Lake Superior has been aggravated
by the sharp advance in lake freight
rates. In Northern Wisconsin and the
upper Mississippi, on the contrary, the
reduction of rail rates to Missouri river
points, may help to move cut much OF
the surplus in that section OF the held.
In any event operators ere inclined to
think that it will not be advisable to
push logging quite SO yigourously as they
did last year. They are coming to the
determination to stand for prices, even
if the demand is notquiteas brisk as they
would like to see it. They have organ
lied for this purpose. 1t will be q
menace to next seasons values u they
put in an over stock Of logs. Having to
carry over winter a good deal OF OF this
years output, it will be necessary to
realize fair prices for it next spring in
order to avoid loss. 1t will help to
moderate proportions.
There is growing disposition among
white pine operators to husband their
remaining timber resources. It's seen
that if the old method of indiscriminate
slaughter shall be persned values OF
stumpage will be fretted away The
only means OF getting fair return Tor
the remaining standing pine is to re-
strict the ANIMAL output OF logs to a sale
limit; that is, no more logs should be
cut than will furnish day running OF the
mills, and sufficient amount OF lumber
to supply ready demsnd. 1t would
not damage operators if there should be
no more lumber produced than the
market would take with an eager
appetite.

THE OUTLOOK FOR LOGGING.
North Western Lumberman.]
Pastor.


Operat RS in northern pine are serious
ly discussing the question az to the
amount Of logs they should put in during
the season for which preparations are
now being made. Thus far the years
demand for lumber mas not been of the
magnitude that was hoped for at the
outset. This fall, especially, trade has
been disape ointing. Low prices for
farm products and prolonged excessively
warm wea Their have prevented such an
uprush Of requirement. as was anticlpat-
ed after it was known shat the crop Of
small grains, especially of spring wheat,
was large, and that the corn crop Would
be the heaviest that has been known for
years. 1t is now seen that there will be
a considerable surplus Of lumber remain
ing at the mills, especially in the Lake
Superior district in Northern Wisconsin
and on the upper Mississippi. Accumu-
lation will be mainly Of coarse inch
| lumber, for there seems to be no great
surplus OF piece sun, Dill timber, gOOd
strips or shop lumber. In the north
western sections much of the surplus OF
1 coarse inch has resulted from the extra
ordinary effort that was made last
season to secure all the pine burned last
year before it should go to waste Oh
course the land was cut clean, and the
logs averaged of lower than would have
been the case if tracts had been cut over
with some regard to the quality OF the
! timber. At the same time more effort
was put forth to save white pine than
to operate tracts running largely to
green norway. For this reason, it is
said, smaller percentage OF logs was
cut into piece stuff this season than has
been common in other years.

Department of the Northern Pacific Rail-
road fitted out an expedition to climb the
highes. mountain south of the Canadian
boundry on the North Pacific coast, and
the grandest peak in the United States
Mount Rainier or Tocoma. The party
reached the highest point OF the mountain,
after long and dangerous climb over
rocks and snow and glaciers that were
gashed by crevasses, and returned in SAT
ETY. This magnificent peak is between
Ia, 900 and 15, 600 feethigh, and indeed
may be found in the future to be over / 5,
900 feet, or nearly three miles III height.

A SUICIDE.

The Eagle River community was horrl-
fed, on last Thursday, by the news that
one of it's saloonkeepers had, by his own
hand, ended his life at Watersmeet. God
clone gives life; He alone should take 1t
away. Mans life's span is brief enough,
md his wears are numbered. Life is
merely borrowed ito creaturas; God is
the owner. A dark veil of sorrow and
sadness overcasts the suicides coffin,
and mournful silence surrounds and
overhangs his grave, whilst his parents
and relatives are plunged in deepest grief
and Oscillation. The murderer's victim
falls meath the blood-thirsty dagger. ana
often appears i'll innocence's garb before
his Creator and Judge, But i'll Gods
presence the guilty suicide stands, STAIN
ed with his own blood. He may have
led wicked life which he has resolutely
and criminaly ended, not allowing himself
one moments repentance. 1T is dread
fnl for the sinner" the Scriptures say,
Ito fall into the hands Of the living
God" The only defense. in the case OF
suicides, on the part OF men, is that OF
temporary insanity Such is their
verdict! Which IS that of God! In this
instance, temporary insanity may be
alleged, as for sometime the deceased de
clared to be haunted by some ever
threatening evils. Still, how often is
not such insanity produced by irreligion,
prohigacy. and dishonesty! lmpiety,
gambling, debauchery, public scandals,
usually lead to wretched deaths. Julian
the Apostate, Voltaire. Henry the Eigth
OF England, Gamhetta OF France and
= .on of others who defed God and
sneered at religion ended misefgbly.
''Such life, such DEATH is an old say
ing. Glorious for the just, shameful for
the sinner. We readily confess that
nothing but what is good should be
spoken Of the Dead" but, for thessake OF
the living, we mnst fearlessly condemn,
gambling, impurity, debauchery, evil
resorts, and all that degrades and dis
graces Christian civilization. Men should
be reminded Of their duty to God, their
neighbor, and themselves. We cannot,
with impunity, transgress the Divine
and human laws In time we should
never forget eternity Our souls are iin-
mortal and will live forever, either in
heaven or III hell. These are simple and
strong truths. However, men know not
Gods infinite mercy nor what mans
mind may be, even before or whilst ac-
compishing his last dreadful deed of
suicide; for none can fathom the Ocean
OF Gods mercy. Parents, relatives and
friends egt, therefore, still entertain senle
faint though sad consolation even, when
standing on the tomb of q suicide, and
their prayers Tor the repose OF a soul SO
hurriedly launched into eternity. All the
perversity OF men may always find ray
OF hope III the infinite mercy of our heav-
emily Father whose only eternally begot-
ten Son, made man, purchased us
all, on Calvary's Cross, at the great
price Of His Precious Blood. Before such
a corpse, let sinners reflect, return from
their 'e}fl ways and serve God, our
Sovereign Master, who is all equity. will
forever reward the just, and punish the
wicked according to their works.

E. F. Hawley and s. C. Bull desire us to publish the following extract from a letter of Charles M. Gutfeld, of Reed
 ley, Fresno Co.,, Cal. as they handle the remedy referred to and want their cus- toners to know what a splendid medi- cine it is: ''It is with pleasure I tell you that by one days use of Chamber lain's Cough remedy was relieved of a very severe cold. My head was con- pletely stopped up and could not sleep at night. I can recommend this rem edy." A cold nearly always starts ip the head and afterwards extends to the throet and lungs. By using this remedy freely as soon as the cold has been con- tracted it will cure the cold at once and prevent it from extending to the lungs.*

DEATH OF EDWIN ROBERTS


 Edwin Roberts, 76, dled, Tuesday, March 5, of pneumonia and complica- 5ion of other diseases. He had been ill only few days. Having been born in England he emigrated to this country when 8 boy. and had resided in this town some 40 years. He was one of our most valued citizens. He was a member of the Methodist Episcopal church, of King Solomon's lodge, F. and A. M., No. z. His first wife died in 1892 He leaves second wife, and son, Frederick, cashier of the Thomaston National bank, survive him. His only daughter died some years ago.

 WOODBURY's VALUABLE TOWN HISTORY. Cothren's History of Ancient Wood bury has become quite legal authority as well as historical one. It began to be used as such as early as the case of Charles Booth vs. the town of Woodbury, tried before the Supreme Court of Er- TOTS during the war of the Rebellion. Two weeks ago it was used as author itative in Brooklyn, N. Y, in a life insurance matter without question in
 
 of the Sons of the American Revolution in this and other states also refer to it as authoritative. The first volume was printed Al years age. There are more than 35,000 items in the work, and the author took unusual care to insure &C., curacy, and has corrected all errors found in all these years. It was pio- neer among town histories in scope and fulness of detail.
 Reference was made in my last letter to the fact that George Roswell, who suf- fered an injury to his right eye, last fall, near the First church chapel, would soon be obliged to have it removed to save the sight of the other one. He has re- turned from Bridgeport, where he had an operation performedi and the eye re- moved, and is now doing we'll. It is terrible affiiction to lose an eye. There is little consolation in MT Roswell's case. It will give him pension of at least SIP per month under the law of 1890 as he is an honorably discharged soldier.
