St. Paul, Feb. 1.-'What forestry means for Minnesota is simply this. % said General c. C.

Some second growth pine ic protected from fire. will then be cut from year to year, but it will not be as good as the original growth. and there will not be enough of it for heme con- sumption.
 Lumber will be dearer and our great lumber industry will decline. There are, however. fully 3.eO0,OG0 acres of waste land in scattered localities which If planted with pine would in time be- come normal forests, yielding forever. supply sufficient for our home need.

Denver. Feb. IA special to the News from Idaho Springs, Colo, says: "A passenger train on the Colorado & Southern road. which left Denver this morning for Georgetown was wrecked by a gale two coaches and a combina- tion baggage and express car were blown off the track and badly damag- ed, the engine and tender remaining on the track.

 The passengers and crew were thrown with great force against the sides of the cars, but were able to escape through the doors and windows. It is believed that Messenger Robin sons injuries were due to trunks fall ing on him.
 It was several hours before news of the accident could be sent to Denver, as telephone and telegraph wires were grostrated by the wind.
 A special relief train sent from the latter city encountered poles and wires strcwn ever the track in many places, and with difficulty reached it's destina- tion.
 The severely injured were taken to a hospital in Georgetown for treatment.
 The wind in this vicinity and in Georgetown did considerable dama ge. In the latter place the roof of the Catholic church was torn off and num- erous other buildings were damaged.

Alone when the night dewS fall:
Under the veil at the bridal.
Under the gloom of the pail,
Behind impenetrable barriers
To work out its life of dole
FROM its first faint cry till the hour to
die
Is the doom of each mortal soul
First tender thoughts of the mother
Who brings us forth in pain,
AS she looks in the eyes of her off.

Some clew to its soul to gain
! of what is my baby thinking
With that gaze intent and wiser"
But ever remains the mystery,
And never a voice replies.
Alone is the child in his sorrow
Over the broken toy: =
Alone is the stricken lover
Mourning a vanished joy;
Alone Is the bride at the altar,
Alone the bridegroom stands
With his hidden life between them,
That-and their plighted hands.
Alone lies the wife, with the canker
or blighted hope in her heart:
Alone is the husband dreaming
OF baked ambitions smart;
And so from the birth to the burial.
From the first to the latest breath,
In crowded streets, on lonely sleeps,
The soul goes alone till death

laborer pure and simple, and there
once a laborer, always laborer.
One only needs to visit foreign labor
centers, as the writer has, to note
the marked difference between the
American and the foreign work
man. The eye of the foreigner
lacks luster and his bearing is with
out hope. His weekly stipend only
supplies him with the most meaget
subsistence, when his earning capa-
city is exhausted, he must beg,
go to the poor-house or starve to
death.
If foreign employers will pay
their workmen American wages,
and surround them with American
conditions, the American workman
will not have the slighters fear of
their competition.
What the public object to and
especially what the American work
man cries out against, is that pro-
tected employees should by forcing
down wages, employment of cheap
labor. setting up of company stores,
institution of unjust fines and
penalties or by any other means, in
order to enhance their own profits,
seek to reproduce in the United
States the very conditions a pro-
tective tariff was designed to pre-
vent. The American public is
practically a unit on the proposition
that if men who employ other men
strive to establish or permit the
establishment of foreign conditions,
as some of them are doing. protec-
ton against such conditions shall
lOG Ut dCCOTucu IncIu.
If we must have free trade condi-
tons, which God forbid, we are
entitled to free trade prices, and the
sooner our lawmakers and en-
ployers of labor realize this fact the
better it will be for them and the
country. 1t is travesty to call a
tariff that enables the wives of
multi-millionaires to give their pug
dogs airings in costly equipages
attended by stately, liveried foot
men while the wage earner's
children, human beings with immor
tai souls, swelter in tenement houses
without a breath of pure air or a
sight of heavens blue. Yet men
stand up'in the halls of Congress
and declare sour tariff laws are
as sacred as the ten commandments
and to alter or amend would be
political sacrilege."
True protection is benefit to the
masses, not profit to the few.
Destroy this principle and it is not
protection but oppression, and we
want the s'tariff boosters and
"standpatters" to put that in their
pipe and smoke it.

TARIFF TALK.
mo. 81

OBJECTS OF PROTECTIVE TARIFF.
We republicans, at least some of
us, have made or attempted to make
a great deal of political capital out
of the statement that it was estab-
lished to protect the American
workman against the foreign. The
statement is not true, it never was
and never will be true. That was
not one of the ideas of the founders
of the protective system and no
such claim was ever made by them,
but it was one of their desi GINS, and
the most important one of all to
protect the American workman
from the conditions which surround
the foreign workman, and many
make such conditions impossible in
the United States. There is a vast
difference between protecting a
workman against foreign work
man and protecting him against the
conditions that surround the foreign
workman.
Conditions being equal, the
American workman does not ask
protection from any other in the
world. He doesn't have to, he
needs none. He is king in his
class and leads the world. He
works with his head as we'll as with
his hands, does greater amount
of work, does it in less time and
does it better than any other work
man in the wide world. If the
Chinese employer paid his workers
the same wages as the American
pays his, American workman could
60 to China and take the China
mems jobs away from them.
The American workman demands,
and rightfully demands, a sufficient
wage to provide a comfortable
habitation for himself and family,
nutritious food and plenty of it,
sufficient apparel to make a present
able appearance; common school
education at least, for his children;
portion of the comforts, con-
veniences and refnements of civil
zation; little to spend for recrea-
ton; dime or two to drop into
the plate on Sunday and balance
to maintain him in old age when
his earning capacity has become
exhausted.
Then again every American
wage-earner hopes for time when
he will become a wage payer in
stead of a wage receiver. There
is something radically wrong, either
with the man or with the condi-
tions which surround the man if,
here in this land of opportunity, a
wage-worker must remain a wage
worker all his life.
The American public is willing
to pay a price for its wares that
will enable the American to &C
complish this.
The dearest thing on earth is a
commodity made cheap by the want
and suffering of our fellow men.
The American public perfers
building schoolhouses to prisons, it
would rather erect homes out of re-
munerative wages than build aims
houses by taxation, it wants the
American workman to eat the roast
pork of toll and not the Cruel of
Charity's soup houses.
The foreign working man as a
rule, does not expect or receive any
of these advantages. He is a
