THEN AND NOW

On the 10Th of March, 1896, w. H.
Mills of San Francisco w1ote long
letter to Allen Bragg of the Reno Ga
zette on the advantages Of free
coinage. The letter closed as toll
lows:
"The Silver legislation Of the past
twenty-five years has been class
legislation urging the nation on to
ward that condition of adversely
which makes Sealth insecure by the
destruction of general prosperity.
The time is coming when this nation
must call halt to the process. which
the msney manipuiaters of the world
have set in such successful operation,
of imPoverishing the masses through
monetary legislation.
A little further in this direction and
the extinguishment OF general pros
perity will involve all classes in uni
versal bankruptcy.
/ am in favor of return to the tree
and unlimited coinage of silver at the
ratio of Is to /, because l am un-
willing this nation should go further
in the direction Of concentrating all
the money values in the world upon
gold"
This vas when the S. F. Chronicle
and the Call held the same RADICAL
free silver views. 1t was when all
the Republican papers of the country
were assuring the people that the on /
safe and certain road to free coinage
was to travel wiki the Republican
party.
Mr.. Bragg was rampant free sill

that the Republicans were about to
restore the white metal to its old
status and it would be done by VIM

pressing the situation very well, and
they pressed her for a clearer explana-

the rescued peoples. The largest
measure of self-government consistent
with their welfare and our duties shall
be secured to them by law. To Cuba
independence and self-governmeat
were assured in the same voice By
which war was declared, and to the
letter this pledge shall be performed
Other important planks are the fol-
lowing: I'VE renew our allegiance to
the principle of the gold standard, and
declare our confidence in the wisdom
of the legislation of the fifty-slxth
congress by which the parity of all our
money and the stability of our cur
rency upon gold basis has been Sc
cured. We recognize that interest
| rates are potent factors in production
and business activity, and FOR the pur-
| pose of further equalizing and OF
| further lowering the rates of interest
we favor such monetary legislation as
will enable the varying needs OF the
| seasons and of all sections to be
promptly met in order that trade NAV
be evenly sustained, labor steadily en-
ployed and commerce enlarged. The
| volume of money in circulation was
never so great per capita as it is today.
| We declare our steadfast opposition to
| the free and unlimited coinage of sill
| yer. No measure to that end could be

port of the leading commercial coun-
] tries of the world However firmly re-
| publican legislation may seem to have

election of a democratic president

| question the intention of the American
| people to maintain upon the gold
standard the parity of their money cir

| be convinced that the American people
will never tolerate the Chicago plat

1--WE recognize the necessity and
propriety of the honest cooperation of
| capital to meet new business condi-
lions, and especially to extend our
rapidly increasing foreign trade, but
we condemn all conspiracies and COM

| ducers, 1aborers and all who are en-

I'VE renew our faith in the policy Of

In the manufacturing Investigations
Of the eleventh census made in 1890.
tumbermen and mill owners were ask
ed how much timber land was owned
by them. and what was the stand OF
timber upon 1t. These questions Were
quite generally answered, and the re-
plies showed that a total area of 81
664. 626 acres. or about 43 200 square
miles, was reported upon. with an ave
& stand upon it OF 1880 feet per acre.
Nearly all of this area was In the east
ern states. The stand of timber aver
aged by states ranged from 5000 up
to Al 900 feet per acre, the latter stand
being in the state OF California. The
nrage stand in the southern states, in
Guiding pine and hardwood. was 5000
feet, and in New England $500 feet.
These figures of average stand. how
ever are misleading. since they repre-
sent not the average of the timber
land of the country, but the best of
it. quality having largely determined
the selection of lands. 1t would. there
fore, be unysfe to accept these figures
of stand as the average. even for the
lands which are covered with mer-
charitable timber. The average stand
Of the wooded regions Of the eastern
country must be far below these fig
ures. Indeed. estimates Of the stand
of southern pine show the much low
er average Of about 5000 feet per acre
for the entire region. Judging by the
above facts and numerous other
straws of evidence which it would be
tedious to enumerate here, have
come to the conclusion that the aver
age stand upon the wooded lands in
the east probably does not exceed 800
feet. The area of woodland in this
part of the country is a little less
than half a billion acres. The stand
of timber upon 1t. therefore. may be
in the ncighborhood OF $50. 600, 900 900
feet (B. NJ. With that estimate in
the west. $50. OOO. 900. 900, the total
stand in the country would appear to
be. approximately. 1880. 600. 900 900
feet (B. NJ. In 1890 the cut was about
%, 900. 900 900 feet. and since then the
annual cut has somewhat increased.
The present stand would therefore
supply the present rate OF consump-
ton for about fifty years. AS a ran
dom statement. then. it may be said
that We have timber in stock sufficient
to last the present demands OF our in
dustries for nearly We generations
Some species. however. which are APP
plicable to certain purposes, such as
