To Cut its own Timber.

The following is taken from the r.
l., published interview with one OF
the members of the Weyerhauser syn
dictate. Undoubtedly some of the in
terested. parties will transfer their
operations from the East to Washing
ton. The reference to the 4O-year
hauling franchise is an indication that
our timber will last generation or
two to come:
The recent purchase of 100000
acres of Washington timber lands
from the Northern Pacific by the'
Weyerhauser syndicate was not, ac-
cording to the direct information OF
Eastern lumbermen, with the view oil
holding the land for speculative pur-I
poses but the primary object was tol
find location for the thirty or more
lumber mills owned by the syndicate
operating Ill the Mississippi valley,
where the timber is becoming scarce.
That these mills vii! be moved one by
one to the new acquisition on the
Coast as rapidly as the timber in sight
at the present locations is exhausted
is the general belief of all Mississippi
valley lumbermen.
Among the most prominent in this
trade in the East are James McCros-
sen, of Wausau, Wis, and T. B. Cur
ran & Son, of Rhinelander, Wis. who
arrived yesterday and are at the But
Ter. They are here for the purpose of
securing timber lands, on which they
will locate timber mills and engage in
the manufacturing business. Both
are large operators.
"We are forced out of the white
pine forests of Wisconsin on account
of the scarcity of TIMBER" said Mr..
McC rossen yesterday. "The coming
timber district of the world is on the
North Pacific coast, and lumbermen
all over the United States are aware of
it. A few years ago we bought timber
lands in this state for speculation, but
it is not so pow. A majority of the
Eastern lumbermen who have made
recent purchases of timber land here
did not buy for speculation, but to
have a place to move their mills when,
within year or so at longest, their
home supply of timber will be exhaust
| ed.
"There will be an enormous number
of lumber mills come to the Coast
within a few years. The Weyefhauser
purchase hung fire so long, Mr.. Weyer-
hauser told me, because the Northern
Pacific asked that it be perpetually
given the manufactured product to
haul. Mr.. Weyerhauser would only
make contract giving it the product
lOI lOIIy years.
"a greater portion of the Weyer-
hauser purchase in this state will be
used up by their own mills, now oper-
ating in the Mississippi valley. Twen-
ty or more of their mills will be moved
here within few years, as they visi-
BILE home supply gives out. There are
many millnlen in the East who are
looking to find timber land on the
Coast. Like ourselves, they are wind
ing up their business preparatory to
coming out here. All who can will
locate plants.
"For my own part, l am DESTROYS of
securing tract on which to locate a
large mill. We have ample capital
behind us to get what we want, if it is
in the market.

the trusts will be position to heap

In presenting Mr.. Bryan as their
candidate for the Presidency the Dem

the assurance that If elected he will
rise above party considerations in ad-
ministering the affairs of his high
Office. He will do all in his power

Death Of Mrs. Louisa ProehI--Born

Mrs. Louisa Proehl, the wife of the
late George ProehI, one of the oldest
citizens of Coventry township, died

For almost half century Mr.. and
Mrs. Proehl were among the wen

and their engagement formed in Ger
many, was consummated in marriage.
They resided in akron for 10 years.
and then removed to the farm where
they spent their remaining years.
For almost fifty years these people
travelled on together peacably through
life; saving enough of this worlds
goods to make them comfortable In
their old days.
There were eight children in this
family, one dying in infancy. The
remaining children are: Louis j., who
was a practicing physician of Akron,
(deceased; George, a farmer near Ra-
VIENNA; William, farmer in Coventry
township; Marie NJ. Davis, of Barber
ton; John f., farmer in Coventry
township; Emma Baughman, Of Bar
berton, and Sarah /. Spidell of Clin-
ton.
Almost three years ago father Proehl
died. From that time on mother
seemed TO lose interest in things of
this life and appeared ready for the
future and near midnight of Oct. II,
fell peacefully asleep. There was No
apparent disease but the machinery
of life that had worked perfectly for

Every thinking man knows that the
trusts have got beyond the power Of
the States to control them unless the

the arm of the Executive branch of the
National government, as they have
been enabled to do under the Admins,

"CLASS PREJUDICES.v

The Republican orators and news
papers seem to think that 1t is n suIii-
cient answer to Mr.. Bryan's arguments
to charge that he is trying TO arouse
class prejudces. The same charge
was made against Mr.. Lincoln, when
he opposed the divine institution" OF
slavery, 1t Is the answer that has been
made TO every man who has over stood
for the defense of popular rights, But
why cry down the man who honestly
tries TO provide a safe and effective

campaign is THAT BETWEEN I'M,
PERIALIsT PLUToCRACY AND
THE AMERICAN COMMON
WEALTH We cannot dismiss this
as idle vaporing.
Burke said that the local view Of
politics was always fifty years be-
hind the times--meaning that we can
not properly estimate the forces at
work until half century has passed.
But intelligent contemporary opinion
of foreigners is the verdict of poster
ity; and we must not be so contemptu-
ously incredulous as to Bryan's wild
and whirling words when we find an
observer of Goldwin Smiths capacity
asserting that there is an element of
truth in his most railing accusation.
If Bryan's open appeal to the jealous
les and blind rage of the poor has any
unusual force, it is because the Repub-
lican party has too openly sold itself
for campaign contributions.
"And what lamentable thing IL Is
for the Republicans TO be compelled to

Orson Of politics charges them with

his WORDS BITE BECAUSE

The Evening Post a leading Re-
publican newspaper of New York, has
steadily refused to support Bryan, and
has been one of his severest critics
during the whole of the past four years.
1t is somewhat Pharsaical in it's
estimate Of Dir. Bryan, and wrongs
him by accusing him of appealing to
class prejudices rather than giving
him credit for advocating conditions
that would obvinte class prejudices,
but here is what its sense of fairness
compels 1t TO say of the other side:
"Why should there be any fear that
a reckless stumpspeaker, an adept in
knock-down argument, stirrer-up Of
social hatreds, should now command
a majority of the suffrages of tho
American people? Let alarmed Re-
publicans give their minds to this
question. If they do 1t seriously and
hosestly, they will be compelled to
acknowledge that the only weapons
which are dangerous in Bryan's hands

MEN WHO HAVE NODDED RE-
PUBLICAN POLICY DURING THE
FOUR YEARS PAST. IL BRYAN
ISM is A FIREBRAND, 1T is RE-
PUBLICANISM WHICH HAS SET
IT AFLAME.
what are the two charges against
the Republican party which Bryan
presses with the most successful itera-
ton? First, that it has allowed or
ganized and INSCRIPTIONS wealth to
sway the policy of the general gov
ernment; second, that 1t has denied on
q gigantic scale the fundamental
rights of human liberty. Do not, i'm
patient Republican reader, cry out
that this Is all calamitous nonsense.
Pause moment and reflect on the
amount of truth there is to put edge
on Bryan's charges. Have you for
gotten those letters demanding govern
ment favors In return for campaign
contributions to the Republican party?
Is 1t to be supposed that such revela.
tlons could fail to wake suspicious
in the popular mind? Will not people
say that If few letters, accidentally
published, showed such an attitude
| in men having close relations with the
Republican leaders, the whole truth,
IL known, would confirm Bryan In
asserting THAT REPUBLICANISM
now MEANS SELLING LEGIsLA.
