rolls. The elections of 1890 and 1892
had brought into the Senate a small
but argumentative group of populists.
The st. Louis secession and the dem.
ocratic split at Chicago established
two more novel partisan divisions,
the boiling western republicans class
ing themselves as ssilverites" and the
supporters of Palmer aud Buckner
choosing the designation of Sound
money democrats OF this last fac
ton there is now no survivor. OF the
populist all have disappeared but
three, though two of these-Harris
of Kansas, and Turner of Washing
tcn-might be classified as democrats
rather than as populists.
Seven senators CO. operated with MT.
Jones five years ago to form the So
called silverite group-his colleague
from Nevada, William M. Stewart;
Teller, of Colorado; Dubois, of Idaho;
Cannon of Utah; Mantle, of Mon
tana; Mitchell, of Oregon, and Petit
grew, of South Dakota. Messrs. Man.
tie, Cannon and Pettigrew are no
longer in the Senate. The first named
has returned to republicanism, and
was republican caucus candidate for
Senator last winter before the Mon
tana legislature.
Mr.. Pettigrew was defeated dem
ocratic and fusion candidate before
the South Dakota legislature. Mr..
Dubois, defeated silverite four years
ago, has been again elected from
Idaho as a democrat. Mr.. Mitchell,
also defeated as silverite, has been
again elected from Oregon as a re-
publican. Mr.. Stewart, elected as
silverite, announced his reconversion
to republicanism about year ago,
and Mr.. Teller, elected as a silserite,
is preparing, it is understood, to make
his next canvass before the Colorado
legislature as a straightout democrat.
With Mr.. Jones adding his vote to
the republican column and Mr.. Teller
his to the democratic, the Senate
again becomes bipartisan, containing
no member who cannot be fairly char
acterized either as a republican or as
a democrat.-Bdngor Neacs.

LUMBER OUTLOOK.
What is Going ON Among kennebec
Operators.
From the Kernebec Journal

The outlook for an increase in the ium-
bering operations in the Kennebee terri
tory the coming winter is regarded as very
bright. There are few men 10 this vicin-
ity better posted upon the condition OF
the numbering business than Hon. Ira IL.
Randall, of Augusta.
"LRst year" said Mr.. Randall, "aii the
companies operating on the Kennebec
waters cut, as near as can be estimated,
$50 900, 900 feet. This includes that used
by both the saw mills and in the pulp in
dustry. The cut this year will be about
the ssme-perhsps little more. Ny
opinion would be that there would be an
increase rat her than decrease.
speaking OF the pulp industry asked
the reporter, "do you think there Is a ten
dency among these mills to cut too small
timber in the Slater"
"This depends upon circumstances.
When company buys the stumpage only,
there is tendency, OF course, to utilize as
much as possible OF the timber. In this
case small trees are undoubtedly cut.
When the company cuts from its own
tracts OF land, 1t of course realizes that 1t
il not for its interest to cut the smaller
timber.
II should judge that the HoIlipgsworth
Il Whitney company cuts two-thirds OF
ITS supply from tracts OF land which is
owns. The Great Northern paper COM
papy owns over 100000 acres of timber
lands. 1t cuts an immense amount from
this territory, but it also buys a great
deal. 1t is continually purchasing from
small owners, so no exact estimate can be
given OF the proportion cut on its
own lands aud that purchased from others.
The International paper company uses
about % 900 900 feet a year, and good
proportion Of this comes from its own
ands.
"Do you think there is great tendency
Slater" wss asked.
.No. In the case OF the Kennebec re-
gion there is lumber enough, with hat
will grow, il judiciously used, to last the
companies now operating here for years,
without any doubt.
"Wh are the plans of the Augusta
Lumber Co. for the coming seasonw asked
the reporter.
ave use about 10, 600 600 feet OF timber
elch year. We shall cut about 1000 900
feet from our own lands aud have srrsn-
ged for about 5000. coo more from other
sources. Our numbering operations up
river have already begun. Our men were
liz the woods a month ago. They are
working on the hills and in other places
where deep snow will hinder the work
later. Our orperai ions are, as usual, con-
Quoted from the office in this city. A
foreman IN each OF the camps will
be in charge Of the minor details.
GOOD men for the woods are in de-
mand Such will have no difficulty in
ge ting good wages. / do not think
there are es many French Canadians in
be woods this season as usual. The
wages for the present season are about q
or 50 per month higher than last year.
They range from so to SIS for good
choppers and teamsters. Men going In
The woods for the first time Of course

The Silver Party is Dead

Senator John p. Jones's reversion
to republicanism leaves adrift between
the lines of the two political parties
scarcely single conspicuous figure in
the silver secession of 1896.
One by one the western politicians
who broke with the republican organ
ization at st. Louis five years ago,
and sought, by a subsequent alliance
with the democrats and populists, to
make the free coinage issue new
basis of cleavage in national politics,
have confessed the total failure of
their plans and hopes. Some, inten-
sified in their hostility to republican
leadership by the defeats of 1896 and
1898, found the way smoothed for
them in 1900 to accept the undiluted
democratic faith. Others, boiling at
the offensive attacks in the Kansas
City platform on the administrators
policy in the Philippines, resumed,
without appreciable tension, their
places in the republican ranks.
The senior senator from Nevada was
one of the few seceders of 1895 whose
party status last years national cam
paign LEFT unaitered and unaffected.
His renewal now of his old relations
with the majority party in the Senate
and in the country leaves the middle
ground between republicanism and
democracy practically deserted. 1t
marks, too. the final subsistence of an
agitation which, while it lasted, threat
ened to obliterate all the known and
accepted landmarks of party politics.
Mr.. Jones's abandonment of the
cause of silver completes the process
through which the United States Sem
ate has gradually rid itself of the null
tiplicity so long represented on its

Congress is now in session, and will
remain for at least six months, into
which will be crowded some of the
most exciting political experiences
that this country has witnessed for
many day. The republicans have,
of course, great advantage, not only
from their position as majority par
ty but also from the extreme weak
ness of the opposition. At the re-
publican caucus on Saturday, General
Henderson, Alexander Mcdowell,
Henry Casson, and the other officers
of the last Congress, were renomi-
mated by reclamation.

The President treats of trusts,
