opment of the starr" tract In Branch

The Iowa idea OF tai i'll revision, which
cut sufficient figure in that western poll
tical hub last year to contribute to the re-
tirement of speaker Henderson, is not
likely to occupy great prominence in the
Republican party next year. Senator
Allison has completed the draft of the
tariff plank for the Iowa platform, and
during his recent stay at Hot Springs,
Va, showed to Senators Aldrich and
Spooner the wording OF the declaration,
which met the entire approval of Mr..
Aldrich, the leading authority on the
tariff in the Senate. While the wording
of the plank must for the present be treat
ed as confidential, the fact that it met with
the appreciation of Mr.. Aldrich is in itself
a complete refutation of the widely cir
culated story, under SOuix City date,
that the Iowa idea was still uppermost in
the minds OF Governor Cummins, the
President and Senator Allison. The facts
are that there is complete harmony in the
Republican ranks in Iowa, and there
exists no demand for immediate tariff re-
vision, which it is appreciated could not
be taken in presidential year without
immediate danger to the prosperity which
the nation is now enjoying.

of the United States Department Of AGri-
culture puts the question of conservative
numbering in a way which makes II
worthy the attention of lumbermen. II is
the attitude of this Bureau, that forestry
and numbering are allies, not enemies,
and tnat the interests of one depend
directly upon those of the other. The
Bureau does not claim that forestry is the
panacea of every lumberman's troubles,
nor that it is now applicable to every TIM

itself in readiness to assist lumbermen in
applying practical forestry to their hold

The Bureau of Foreetry does not deal
