More Big Trees Found.

From the current issue of the
"Pathtinder," the following item
was taken:
"There is great satisfaction
over the announcement coming
from California that hitherto
entirely unknown forest OF giant
sequoias or "blg trees" has re-
Gently been discovered in that
state. This grove, which mum
bers about Is, 900 trees, is locat-
ed on Redwood mountain, In
Tulare county, and it is the larg.
est grove of the sort known. The
trees average about $50 feet high
and thousands of them run above
300, being 20 to 40 feet or more
In diameter at the base. 1t is
likely that President Roosevelt
will have this new tract of big
trees set apart as national re-
servation, before the lumber pi-
rates can lay their devastating
hands on them. The find Is es-
pecially valuable In view of the
great injury done to the old big
tree groves by the forest fires
recently"

Convention.

The Fulton County Sabbath
Association held Its convention
on Tuesday of last week In the
Lutheran Church. The conven-
ton, though not largely attended
was characterized by a good de.
gree of interest. The program
previously published was carried
out in every particular. Each
one hlled the place assigned him,
and number of themes elected
a lively general discussion. The
officers of last year were all re-
elected. The report vf the work
in general shows that the County
Associations together with the
State Association, are accomp-
fishing very Important work in
eating public sentiment on the
Sabbath Question, IN suppress
ing violations of the civil law of
the Sabbath and IN subscribing
the Sabbath Cause in the legisla-
ture. And the friends of the
Sabbath are much encouraged.
The Secretary was instructed to
call upon all of the churches or
their Sabbath Schools through
out the county to take up and
send in through him, at an early
date, an offering for the promo
ton of tbs work.
The sentiment of the conven-
tion found expression IN the
adoption of the following resolu-
tions, VIZ;
1. That 1t is our sense as taught
from the Holy Word, from the
precepts of history and from our
own experience thai the proper
observance of the Sabbath en-.
tails to us a blessed heritage.
2. That we call upon all of our
citizens to cease all manual labor
and work on that day save that
which of necessity must be done,
and that the same rule be ap
Piled to the brute creation in our
care.
3. That we condemn as hurtful
to our best interest and to our
highest beng, buying and selling
on the Sabbath.
4. That we condemn the prac-
tice of Sabbath visitation, save
for deeds of charity or necessity,
as against good order and de
structlve of personal morality.
5. That we ask all to so relate
their secular work on the day
preceding so as to allow them to
get ready to worship in Spirit
and In truth the Great God who
Is the Father of us all and with
whom we have to do whether we
live or die.
All the pastors in the county
are earnestly requested to bring
this cause to the attention of their
neutrality-suspicious. and have
them send in their offerings, even
if ever so small yet something as
soon as possible.

CARNEGIE HITS TARIFF.
Would Make LuSuries Used by Rich Pay
Revenues-Says Steel Is Made Cheap.
er Here Than Elsewhere.
is FOR FREE STEEL AND OIL.

New York, Nov. 23.-Andrew
Carnegie has written for the De-
cember Century of "My Exper-
fence With and Views Upon the
Tariff, claiming ''Iniant indus
tries" no Ions er need protection,
saying steel and oil duties should
be abolished and duties on manu-
factured articles greatly reduced
and urging tariff for revenue and
an increase of the duties on lux
uries consumed by the rich.
Commenting upon the McKin
ley bill and it's objects, Mr.. Car
negie writes
"All this proves that President
Mckinley belonged to our schooI
of protectlonlsts, strong when
protection Is needed, bat equally
strong IN abollshing unnecessary
duties. If alive to-day, l am Ger
tain he would approve the policy
recon mended in these pages.
We labored long together to de
velop and guard our own resourc
es, and now the time has come
when most of these can and should
stand upon their own feet and
conquer"
He pays a tribute to the late
Senator German for defeating
the revolu tionary features of the
Wilson bill, saying:
"Wise, moderate, honest, he
led his party with consum mate
address,
'sThat there Is a cultSwho re-
!. gard that doctrire (protectlon) as
sarcos SAINT and everlasting, none
knows better than the writer"
says Mr.. Carnegie, "but It's mem
bers are few and not likely to in
crease, since our country has ad
mittedly developed and gained,
and is to continue gaming, manu-
featuring supremacy in one de
partment after another until it
reaches a position where free
trade in manufactures would be
desirably for 1t, all the markets
of the world open for her, and
hers to the world. Our difficulty
will then be to get other nations
TO agree to free trade.
'rhere will remain importa-
tions of foreign Injuries, which
should be still heavily taxed for
revenue, not protection; the aim
being to levy the tax that would
produce the greatest revenue
from Injuries. This would not
seriously affect the producer,
since the buyer pays all duties,
and demand would not be greatly
effected by the higher price,
since only the rich use them"
He argues that the rich will
have what is desirable or fashion
able, regardless of small in-
crease in cost.
