A MINNESOTA VIEW.

E. r. BARAGER, formerly publisher
of the Itemizer here. but now of New
Ulm, Minnesota, says in the last
issue of his paper:
Our old friend John J. Jenkins of
Chippewa Falls, one of the brainest
members of the the Wisconsin dele
CATION in the house of Representa-
tives at Washington, although a
republican, and good one, too, has
introduced resolutions providing for
an amendment to the constitution
giving congress control of trusts.
1t provides that congress shall have
the power to define, regulate, con-
troll, prohibit, repress and dissolve
all trusts and monoplies and COM
binations or conspiracies to mono
police any part of travel Or COM
merce. Congress is given power to
enforce the proposed article by APP
propriate legislation, and in the
absence of national legislation the
powers conferred on congress may
be exercised by the several states.
John is altogether to honest to be-
come prosperous politician and if
he does not look out he will get him
self disliked by the Hannas and the
Rockefellers and various other
Afellers''.

Some Big Timber.

From a recent number Of the Oak
land, Ore, Owl, we clipt the follow
ing, which was contributed by F. M.
Marion, who recently went from
here to Oakland. Mr.. Marion
writes: At the request of some OF
my friends I will write you a few
lines on subject of the greatest i'm
portance to US as communicate:
the magnificent timber resources of
our country. I have lately been
called by different parties into the
montains around the sources of the
Calapooia, to aid in locating timber
claimants on the government lands,
and although I have known what
big timber is for several years, I can
but say that there is truth in the old
saying that one is never too old to
learn.
The district I speak OF begins
practically at the mouth of Coon
Greek and extends from there in an
almost unbroken wilderness of "for-
est primeval" to the very source of
the main fork of the Calapooia;
thence around the DIVIDE onto the
slopes of the tributaries of the Coast
fork, and although the forest is
somewhat broken by fires. on the
other and minor tributaries of the
Calapooia, the general character of
the country is the same over the di-
vide onto Rock Greek and thence to
the Umpqua. 1t is all large timber
and some is of enormous proper
tions.
A few days ago in running line
along cliff on the top of Grouse
mountain, my comrade suggested
that we climb to the crest and make
an observation, which we did, and
although I have seen a good portion
of my native land, [ have never be-
held a more inspiring sight than
that. Away in every direction
stretched the interminible forest-a
sea of green, variegated by patches
of cloud, and away to the east or
north lay three majestic mountains,
snow clad to their very feet.
But now let US get off this moss
covered rock, which is damp seat
anyway, and talk business. Two

hundred and forty steps below on
the Bohemia road, which by the
way, so far as [ have seen, is the
best mountain road in Oregon.
Well, along this road, which for sew
eral miles follows the top of the
noun tain. the timber is not nearly as
good as tits 20 rods either wav down
the slopes. Nevertheless a party Of
four men, all of them timber men,
one of them a cruiser for one of the
largest lumber companies in the
Northwest, stopped right there to es-
innate the timber. They stepped
off 30 steps square, counted and
found 80 sound trees. "Cut it in
two, !" said the cruiser, ''cah it fifty;
now what will they cut?" addressing
the mill man. '"Three thousand
feet, +" said the latter. "Cut it in
two," said the first speaker; ''call it

have you on quarter. of very poor
timber?" The Wisconsin man shut
his notebook with snap and looked
tired Perhaps sawmill men in his
state don't run up against such num-
bers. ] will not undertake to put
any sort of an estimate on this tim
Der, but these men were experts,
and approximated very conser-
vatively, this timber not being
more than two thirds of an average
of one hundred sections in the dis
trict which is tributary to the Gala
pooia.
Now while I am speaking of this
region and it's wealth Of resources, |
would like to ask why the Bohemia
road was permitted to stop unfinish-
ed within three and one-fourth miles
of its goal for years. Is it moss
back apathy Or just common every
day imbecility? Charity suggests
the latter. Surely it isn't for the
want of money, for we have some
now set aside for the specific purpose
and can easily get enough more to
finish the road. Now why is it, [
say. that with these immense lumber
and mineral resources tributary to
this road which must very soon en-
ploy hundreds of men, and represent
millions of money, that our people,
who have heretofore shown such
commendable spirit in projecting
and building this road thus far, in
the hardest times we ever knew,
should now stand still when its i'm
portance is becoming more evident
every day, and the wisdom and sag
acity of it's sponsors is recognized,
delay it's completion? If this road
were completed, I believe that with
in five years it would contribute
more to the trade of this place than
any road centering here.

SENATOR CLARK MUST GO.

The elections committee of the
Senate have decided that Senator
Clark of Montana is not entitled to
occupy his seat in that body, and
consequently he will have to 60, I'M
less the unexpected should happen
and the Senate should reverse the
decision of the committee, which is
altogether improbable. Senator
Clark intimaJes that he will 90 back
to Montana and seek reelection.
The great fight for supremacy be-
tween the Daily and Clark factions is
thus again renewed in Montana. 1t
seems that in that state money
goes, and while Clark is undoubtad-
ly the better man of the two, the
Senate does not feel inclined to re-
cognize man who has prac tically
confessed that he has bought his
way into that body: The time
when millionaiers can rule things
with money and corrupt methods,
seems to be drawing to an end, and
the man with the reward of merit
on his side is being recognized IL
stead. This is the correct theory!

THE JOURNALS NORTHERN EDITION

The Milwaukee Journal issued
another special northern Wisconsin
edition Monday. The Journal has
hung out the text that Milwaukee
and northern Wisconsin ought to
get closer together in business, and
with that end in view is engaged in
showing up the varied interests of
the northern part of the state and in
calling attentio to the rapid devel-
opment of its agricultural and in
dustrial interests. The Journal has
issued several of these editions, but
none better than this last one By
the way, it is common remark
throughout this part of the state
that the Journal is becoming the
most progressive paper in Milwau-
kee. and it's interest in this northern
section of the country ought to be
the means, not only of promoting
the common interests Of Milwaukee
and Northern Wisconsin, but also
of securing for it the patronage of
the great bulk of the reading public
of this part of the state.
IvER ANDERSON, formerly publish
er of the Butternut Eagle, and en-
gagged for several years on various
newspapers in northern Wisconsin,
died suddenly at Rhinelander last
week. Mr.. Anderson was one of
the brightest writer's in northern
Wisconsin. His life was an I'M
happy one, full of trials and sorrows
mostly due to faults which he
seemed unable to overcome.
A NUMBER of newspapers that are
especially friendly to Governor
Scoield have intimated that the
Governor may yet decide to become
a candidate for denominations; and
throw out the inference that in case
of LaFollette entering the race he
will surely be in it. Well, no one
objects. The more there are the
merrier.
