j Harry Sell, one Of the large
wholesale shoe dealers of Chicago,
in discussing the heavy tariff on
hides, said that more democratic
sentiment, more democratic votes
are being created by Senator Al
drich to-day than William Jennings
Bryan ever created in his whole
life. We hope that MIR. SELF is
right, but we have feared that the
ten or dozen Democrats in the
Senate who have been helping the
high protectionists along were do
ing almost as much to throw wet
blanket over democratic sentiment.

DR.. J. p. Townsend, mayor Of
Potosi, and l.. +. Dining, Jr., al
derman, have resigned their posi-
tions because so many people have
a "grouch" at them because they
try to enforce the town ordinances.
These people did not like the way
the revenue was spent, or the hog
law enforced, or the way the streets
were fixed, so the mayor and alder
man decided to let somebody else
take the fussing.

The protection of the national forests from

tween the of the national forests or any
of their resources, for the permanent benefit
OF many. or for the temporary benefit of
few, the forest service encourages use by the
many and prevents its monopoly by the few.
There are two planks in the platform of
the forest service. They these;
To insure through public ownership and
administration the fullest permanent use of
those forests which are essential to the public
welfare.
To teach American citizens how to make
the best use of forests in private hands and
of their product. by finding out and telling
them how.
The 194.50O,O0O of national forests
stand for the first plank. They conserve most
of the water and onethird of the timber of
the west. This national heritage, whose
measurable material resources are worth more
than two billions of dollars. is being admins
tered by the forest service in the best perma-
nent interest of all the people. At average
cost for protection of about one-ffth of cent
per acre. the damage by fire national for
ests for the last three years has been per mil

use of the national forests by the people has
