The true northerner. [volume] (Paw Paw, Mich.) 1855-1920, 1906-03-30

There is food for national reflection
in the statement by a newspaper rep
resenting the Michigan lumber inter
ests that ito all intents and purposes
there is no white pine here any
more. The fact can hardly be ig-
nored that the case presents an ex-
amples of Understanding tariff pol
icy. No intelligent protectionist will
deny that the purpose of a protective
tariff is to foster and increase the
domestic production of the staple on
which the duty is laid. No man with
his eyes open can dispute that the eff
feet of the tariff on lumber has been
to hasten the destruction of the
white pine forests When forty years
of that duty has ended in wiping out
what was the most important supply
of lumber in this country the reason
for continuing the obstacle against
drawing on other countries for our
lumber needs is hard to PERCEIVE

IN NAPoLeon's LAST EFFORT,
Six BattaIlons of French Guard Made
Final Attack at Waterloo.

Further light on the battle of Water
loo is shed by Prof c. Oman OF Eng
land. From the archives of the French
war Offices he has obtained informa-
tion-never before made public
which is in the form of a return, sign
ed by Deriot, or the morning of the
battles of Ligny and Quartre Bras. II
will be recollecte@ that M. Houssaye
has stated-and IL has been generally
accepted-th only five battalions OF
the French Guard were engaged In
Ney's final attack on the British light
center at Waterloo. He says that the
Fourth Chasseurs was small regi-
ment originally, and suffered so severe
ly at Ligny that it was consolidated
into a single battalion on June Is.
These assertions, Prof. Oman remarks
are contradicted Cd by the fact that
1t certainly had 1,041 bayonets-two
full battalions-on the morning Of Lig
ny, as shown by the new return which
has been discovered, and GU by the
tables of NJ Martinien. which dem
onstrate that the regiment lost not
one single officer killed or wounded at
Ligny 1t cannot possibly have had
more than twenty or thirty casualties
in the rank and file, probably less. At
Waterloo. therefore. it must have
been still over 1000 strong. and form
ed two full battalions Ney's attack,
therefore, was delivered by six, not
five. battalions, supported, as we be-
lieve by two more of the Second Chas-
seurs somewhere to the rear of the
echelon formed by the others.-Brook.
