Forestry Experiments.

Dr. f. B. Fernow, chief of the for
estry division of the department of ag-
riculture, was in Crookston comforting
with the superintendent of the Crooks
ton state station looking to extensive
experiments in forestry. The idea is
to introduce into that section trees
whose habitation is IN other countries
similarly situated and of like climatic
conditions. 1t is believed that valua-
BILE woods may in this manner be added
to those Indigenous there, and that
fruit and nut bearing varieties of other
lands may be successfully grown. DR..
Fernow will make trip into the
reservation lands in order to observe
the conditions which obtain touching
the preservation of native forests The
experiments to be carried on viii be
cooperative, the general government
bearing large share of the expense.

WILD ExTRAvAGANCE.
How the Republican Representatives Ar
Running Things.

How the Republican Representatives Are
Running Things.
"The condition OF the treasury" is q
puzzling thing. Looked at from the
point of view Of republican platforms
and candidates and emergency bills" "
it is little short of appalling; bankrupt
cy, deficits, criminal incompetency,
gloom, no hope till the republicans come
to their own. But if it is question of
money to spend for ships and armor
and guns and dredging Salt river and
building $75O,Oo0 courthouses in Okla
homa, there is cash in plenty. Senator
German opposed an addition to the
naval bill the other day on the ground
shat t'the condition of the treasury"
{ id not warrant wild extravaganza. But
he was quickly answered that the treas
ury was actually running over with
money-no less than $3.50 ZOO, 900 Of cash
balance What senator would think
of being economical with a balance like
hat to draw on? TWAS patriotism. not
money, that was lacking. Anyhow, the
party came in for good
cursing whichever way you take it; it
| as bankrupted the treasury, and then
stands by doggedly and refuses to vote
a single one OF the $3.50, OO0, 900 it has
needlessly taken from the people and
heaped up in the vaults at Washington.

The Senate Considers the Date Too Early
and VIII Not Act for the Present.
WASHINGTON, May THE house
resolution for final adjournment on
the 18th of the present month is con-
sidered in the senate as too early q
date. The resolution was referred to
the committee on appropriations, and
will not be reported back to the SEN
ate until the appropriation bills are in
fair way to be out of the road within
known period of time.
1t is safe to assume that MIR. Allison
will not consider the resolution for at
least ten days, and the conclusion of
senators who have discussed the ques-
ton with members of the committee is
that an adjournment will be had not
earlier than June 1. The only snags
in the way-the PETER resolution to
investigate the bond sales and the
Dupont case-will be out of
the way early, by agreement
as to when the vote shall be taken, and
it is expected that nothing will then
interfere with the continuous consid
Grafton of appropriation bills and the
reception of conference reports on
such bills as may be in the hands of
the conferees. June is as early
date as any one in charge of legisla
ton will predict

Congressman Aldrich. of Illinois,
Reed, does not agree with the McKin-

ohio candidate at indianapolis yester-
lay definitely settles the matter.
''Of course, said Mr.. Aldrich, it
would be folly to say that it is not dis
souraging to have a number of states

We wish it were otherwise. but we are
not willing to concede that Mckinley
has walk-over; far from it. By what
authority can anyone say that Nc
kinley will have a majority of the
votes? According to Mr.. Manley's es-
innate, made pu bile last Monday morn
ing, Mckinley was then credited with
s75 votes. Since then we concede that

to the 275 we gave him increase his
strength to Bill Now, let US sup
pose, for the sake of argu-
ment, that he secures II more
votes in Indiana in addition to
the IL which we have allowed him.
That makes 325. 1t is not unlikely
that Colorado, Idaho, Montana, Ne
vada and Wyoming. all silver states,
will throw their strength to McKin-
ley. They have 81 votes, which will
swell McKinley's figures to a57. That
leaves him 100 short of a majority.
Now, where is he going to get the re-
nainder?

Organize to Resist the Regular Party
Machinery on the Currency Question.
CHICAGO, May 9.-The committee of
1--WE hundred of the ''honest money
democrats of Cook county held a
rousing meeting at the Palmer house
headquarters last night to take action
in view of the antagonistic attitude
of the regular party machinery of the
country on the monetary question.
Bankers and merchants and promin-
emit politicians were present and the
county central committee was bitterly
denounced for allying itself to the
Alt2eld and free silver forces of the
city and state.
Ex-Judge Moran, a leader of the
''sound money" democrats, made sem
sationa1 speech in which he accused
Gov. Altgeld of being crazy against
President Cleveland, and for the free
coinage of silver. It was unanimously
decided to give the executive commit
tee authority to make a vigorous cam
paign against the machine to carry
the primaries and see that the vote
was fairly counted. It was also de-
cided to extend the ''sound money" or
organization throughout the state by
means of a committee of prominent
democrats.
