WH1T THE LUMBER TARIFF BAS
DONE

Frederick Weyerhaeuser,
doubtless the largest pine land
owner and best known lumber.
man in the country, during a re
Gems visit to Duluth thus spoke
to a press representative rela
tive to the effect of the So duty
on lumber:
Under free lumber we did not
build sawmills nor logging roads
nor did we carry on logging
operations very extensively. I
believe that conditions have
changed somewhat in these re
speets. have they not? You pee
pie here ought to certainly
know something about that. =
In 1891, 1885 aud 1896 it was
my experience that I could not
furnish employment: in the woods
for all the men that were willing
to work for $40 a month. These
men are now getting 81 a day,
or better, and their board. Be,
sides, there is employment for
more men. The lumber business
is in excellent shape as a result
Of the duty"
MIR. Weyerhaeaser was asked
if a duty of 81 a thousand on
lumber would be ample to pro
tect the industry in the North
west. He said it would lot.
t'One dollar would be better than
nothing: that is all I could say Of
it, " said Mr.. Weyerhaeuser.
Continuing, he said on this
subject: ''Our low grades of lum
Der are the same as those of
Canada. where taxes, labor and
stumpage are cheaper than here
Two dollars a thousand feet is
low compared with the protec-
ton provided for other things. .
Mr.: Weyerhaeuser says that it
has been observed py him since
the days Of President Buchanan
that free trade means hard times.
'sWhat I call good times" said
tae big lumberman. ''is when
labor is we'll employed. The
duty that was placed on lumber
less than two years ago has al
ready been worth millions of
dollars TO the Northwest. When
you look at lumber yard you
can always figure that it repre-.
sents almost all labor except the
stumpage. Labor represents
from $3.50 to $40 in 1000 feet of
lumber. There is not another
article as near to labor as lum
ber." 49,. {
r Mr.. Weyerhaeuser was asked
what the average advance of
lumber had been under the pres
ent duty, and he said it had been

Is it not a little remarkable what
gauzy lies arc thrown forward for the
purpose of deceiving the gullible voter
in a campaign Year, Chairman Rosing
seems to have been unusually prolific
in partisan mendacity during The ex-
listing campaign. In the first place, he
organized aud put under pay some half
dozen or more Democratic veteran
soldiers Of the civil war. These men
commenced their campaign OF SANDER
so early that their efforts to deceive
the veterans have been dis.
counted, and now return to plague
the inventor. Everywhere through ;
ont the state the veterans Of the
civil war are re. forming the
lines under the old flag OF Reprb lican-
ism, and the prospect now is that they
will present a front solid against the

ROSEBERY AT PERTH.
The Former Premier Again Urges
AnElO-American Union.

Perth, Scotland, Oct. 24.-Lord Rose
berry, the Liberal leader and former pre-
mier, in receiving the freedom of the
city of Perth. referred in the most cor
dial terms to the good understanding
between Great Britain and our kinsmen
IN the United States" Continuing, the
speaker said he believed the whole
history Of the Ill feeling which existed
was one vast misunderstanding Since
1779, by the madness Of one government
and the want of wisdom of another.
Great Britain has waged two wars
against the United States. in neither Of
which were we conspicuously success
full. But throughout my life l have
never been cognizant Of an unfriendly
feeling in this country toward the Unit
ed States.
ION the other hand, the Americans, in
whose territory the wars were fought
and with whom the recollection was
most painful, have always had sense
of abiding soreness. But l am glad to
say that after more than a century of
misunderstanding the United States has
discovered that we are not enemies, but
friends. I could not but believe that
when they realize the truth of the posi-
ton they would see that it was great
future before the two nations going
hand In hand and that it was their
duty, function and destiny to perform a
great service not merely in behalf of
other nations, but In behalf of humanity
and civilization"
Lord Rosebery then referred at length
to the Fashoda question, his remarks
having the same tenor as his previous
utterances on the same subject. He
said:
IF I were q British minister now, nc
man should rob me Of one shred or 10,
If the honor to which the great work OF
civilization, eliminating at Omdurman
entitled Great Britain and Egypt. II
The government does not feel strong
enough to bear the weight of it's laurels
l am willing to take any share it may
hand over to me-"

p,,,lndelDhia to Get AnsOns

Chicago, Oct. 25-The report has re-
v,ved that Captain Adrian c. Arson
NAV be found at the head of the Phila-
delnhia Baseball club next season. Out
eeIder Miller Of the Cincinnatis, who ID
visiting in the city, says he got 1t from
. fairly good authority that the Quaker
team would make the ex-Chicago man
ager an offer. The fact that captain
Arson spent some time IN Philadeiphia'
where he went recently to attend the
funeral of his father-in-law, lends some
color to the statement that Arson may
return to the club from which ne orig
,nally came to Chicago.
