1896 They know that the constructing gold
standard is existing BY the ps mission, and
enterprise of the universe,a AMI that the line

Yesterday this same Charles Annette
Towne, as the promoter aud president
of company capitalized at $1,000, 600,
and now engaged in an effort to meas
ure the gold standard not in blood or
sweat or tears, but in Texas oil, was re-
ported as uttering these cynical re-
marks on the political future:
Free silver az an issue Is absolutely dead

mentioned in the Democratic platform or
campaign OF 1904, The feeling among Dem
ocrets in the West Is that they want to win
and they do not care a rap what kind OF a
platform they have so long as il brings them
victory"
And Mr.. Towne is reported as con-
tinuing with this philosophical OBJ
servation on standards of value:
"Whlle the supply OF gold continues to
increase as 1t has been increasing lately
there can be no serious or successful de.
msnd for Tee silver"
We do not put Mr.. Towne's predic.
tons and pledges and noble sentiments
OF four years ago alongside his tranquil
and complacent observations of today
for the purpose OF making him feel un-
comfortable. We merely want to in
quire whether he was humbUg then

And Why Not 7

The hearing was held at Montpelier
yesterday on the motion for new trial
Of the Donovan forgery case on the
ground that the States attorney TAM
pered with the jury by treating them to
cigars in card game. The States at
torney produced afiidavits from every
one of the jurors that the charge was
not true. But for such disproot the
motion would have had to be granted.
And why not in every case in which a
railroad is party, if it can be shown
that the judge rode to the trial on
free pass from the railroad? -Brattle-
boro Reformer.

In this connection, why does not the
Messenger comment upon Bishop Halls

when he declared against the pro
hibitory liquor law of Vermont q
few weeks since? Surely the good
bishops position upon this national
question is deserving of as much
attention as his opinion upon Q

improper influence" over certain jury
men during the progress of criminal
trial, in which he was prosecuting at
torney, by treating them to cigars and
playing cards with them. Mr.. Hoar
denies the accusation in toto, and pro-
duces afiidavlts from every member of
that particular jury which deny that he
treated them to cigars or played cards

The Accustomed Way.

The famous trees on the Webster
birthplace have fallen prey to the
match trust, and the forest where the
godlike Daniel roamed and ruminated
is soon to ne sawed into commplace
lumber. The State OF New Hampshire
was appealed to in vain year ago, then
historical societies were asked to inter-
cede and raise money TO preserve the
ancient tree-, yet IN vain. Now comes
the trust buying everything in its path,
and tradition, historical associations
and legend yield. Webster's favorite
shade trees going into the lucifer
matchl-B )ston Record.
So the evergreen trees that gave the
mountains of Vermont the name that
has become historic are coming down
by acres and square miles, to be con-
.verted into ignoble pulp or to be slit up
into boards or dimension stuff" by the
enterprising lumberman. There is no
objection to rational use of forest re-
sources, whether for pulp or lumber or
fuel or matches. Such use is entirely le-
gitimate and proper-a matter of course.
But rational harvesting of forests is
one thing, and a murderous, obliterat-
ing harvesting is another thing. The
one preserves forest growth. 1t takes
out the trees which have grown to
suitable size for the use of commerce;
at the same time it leaves the smaller
growths standing, protects them from
injury or destruction in the operations
of the lumberman or The wood chopper,
from extinction by fire, and reserves
them for a new harvest in the courses
of time. The judicious harvesting of
the mature trees is ben eft to forest,
and their products cont ribute to the
wealth of the husbandman.
But the accustomed way in Yer
mont, and throughout this American
country, is not the prudent, preserv-
alive way. On the contrary, it is the
way of the greedy fool who killed the
goose that laid him eggs of gold. Not
content with the daily product of ma
ture's law, he had recourse to the knife
to possess himself at once of the stored
up riches-and the supply ceased.
For generations Vermont has been
pursuing this course of folly, with the
consequence that from one-third tC
one-half her entire area has been
stripped of trees, is barren and unpro
ductive, practically worthless asset il

the process is still going on. To the
old assalsnts of the States virgin
wealth have recently been added the
pulp barbarians.
Hundreds of thousands of acres
mounting up into the millions o

of virgin forests, acres which are fit 70

Four years ago Colorado abolished
capital punishment. A bill restoring
the death penalty has recently become
law in that State, though without the
signature of the Governor. Iowa abol-
shed the death penalty in 1872 and re-
stored it six years later. Maine, Michi-
gan, Rhode Island and Wisconsin are
said TO be the only States in the forty
five who do not enforce the Scriptural
penalty for the shedding of mans
blood. In Kansas the law requires
that the Governor shall sign the death
warrant of the convicted criminal &,
which he does not often do, with the
result of life imprisonment. OF the
operation of the law in Kansas it is
said that in nearly a dozen cases crimi-
nails who have been condemned to
death have refused to ask the Governor
for either pardon or Communication of
sentence, and have loudly demanded
the execution of the death sentence
upon them. The man who insist upon
being hanged are one of the trials of
the Governors of Kansas. The aboli-
ton of the death penalty was one of
the questions which unsuccessfully en-
gagged the attention and philanthropy of

The SINGLE TAX.

During the legislative session the
APPEAL published number Of arti-
cles on the Sin IL Tax question from
the pen Of Hon. Wells Dtufy' These
articles at first caused a smile, then
some sober reflection and finally they
began making converts. At the close
of the ession Assemblyman Conway
told the editor Of the APPEAL that he
had become converted 10 the idea that
the Single Tax would build up Ne
vada and bring a great deal OF capt.
tai IN here and that he knew at least
five other members of the House who
shared his opinion. The APPEAL
now proposes 10 publish series Of
articles from the pen Of the gseatest
of all Single Takers, and the o1igina-
tor Of the idea, Henry George. The
principles laid down by HIM have
taken root throughout the civilized
world and have never been success
fully contIove1ted. Mr.. George says
in outlining his theory:
propose to beg no question. to
shrink from no conclusion. but to fol-
low truth wherever it may lead. Upon
US is the responsibility Of seeking
the law, for in the very hear, of our
civilization today women faint and
little children moan. Put what that
Law may prove 10 be is not our affair.
If the conclusions that we reach run
counter TO our prejud,ces, let us no,
rot finch; if they challenge institu-
tions that have long been deemed
wise and natural, let us not turn
back.
l shall briefly state the Fundamental
principles of what we who advocate
it call the Single Tax.
We propose to abolish all take:
save one single tax levied on the
value OF land, irrespective of ths
value of Improvements in or on it.
What we propose is not tax OF
real estate, lor real estate include:
Improvements. Nor is it a tax OF
land, for we would not tax all land
but Only land having value ire
spect,ve Of its improvements, ar,
would tax that in proportion to tina
value.
Our plan involves the imposition {
no new tax since we already tax LAM
values in taxing real estate. To carr
it out We have only to abolish a
