A three months’ personal examina- tion of the forest lands, cut over and untouched, has brought out a number of interesting facts in regard to the timber resources of the state of Wis- consiv. During that time Filbert Roth, as special agent of the depart- ment of agriculture of tue United States, has visited every portion of the state, and his research has resulted in the following summary. He estimates that the total amount of pine, includ- ing that wh’eh has been cut and the amount still standing in the twenty- seven counties of aorthern Wisconsin which he visited, at 129,400,000,000 feet, Between 1873 and 1598 there were cut 66,000,000,000 feet, and the amouut cut previous to 1873 was prob- ably 20,000,000,000 feet. This leaves 26,000,000 feet as wasted, principally by fire. Forest tires are destructive. If the estimates of Mr. Roti are true, and he has certainly taken pains to make them as accurate as possible, fully twenty per cent of the pine of the state of Wisconsin has been de- qsroyed by fire.—Mississippi Valley Lumberman,.

Re- publicans in Opposition to Miller. Feelng secure im the personal strength “and general popularity ot their entire ticket the Democrats of Itasca county have not found it nec- essary to resort to dishonorable prac- tices in this campaign, nor been «:n- gaged in circulating contemptible fies concerning the opposition candidates. ‘Their actions in this regard have been entirely above reproach and honor- able. his cannot, however, be said of our Republican friends, They have been most iacustrious in the matter of misrepresentation, and more €specially is this true regarding C. C. Miller, Democratic candidate for county treasurer. ‘he fool charge has made that in the event of Mr. Miller’s election he will not serve the county, but will turn the conduct of} his office over to another and conunue in his present position with the Itasca Mercantile — cx y.

If the rum re not to blame for them; it they are true it is our duty to print them. The foregoing is in substance about ona par with an article that appeared in the same paper a week ago relative to Candidate Miller. As is admitted by the Magnet Mr. Miller called upon the editor of that paper and stated that jts alleged In- formation regarding his intention in the event of his e'ection was entirely erroneous if absolute'y false. The aforesaid Magnet editor thereup- on revealed to Mr. Miller that his in- formant and authority in the premis- es was KE. A. Kremer, brother of the Republican candidate for treasurer. If Ed. Kremer started aud is circu- lating a storyelike that in his bro- ther’s behalf he will find in the end that such wilfull falsehoods will not yield any political protit. When the Magnet gives publicity to'the state- ment that Mr. rangements to remain in his present position whether be is elected or not, isafalsehood for which tre Magnet alone must be wholly responsible. The Democratic candidate is at pres- ent in the employ of the Itasca Mer- cantile company, and the only persons in a position to confirm or refute the story are Manager Bueneman of the Itasca. store or Mr. Miller himself. Mr. Bueneman is a Republican, and therefore could not be charged with conspiracy in Democracy’s behalf. It would only have been necessary for the editor of the Magnet to step across the street and enquire of the manager as to the facts. This our contemporary did no. de. When seen by a Herald-Review man Mr. Bueneman emphatically asserted that no such arrangement had béen made, and that the report was entirely without foundation. Perhaps the Magnet tray be able to make a satis- factory explanation of its position. nos The State Board of health has issued the following circular: “The State Board of Health requires from this time on, that the quarantine for dip- theria shali continue for four weeks from the time of the appearance of the disease in any patient. or, in heu thereof, that quarantine be re gulated by bacteriological examinations, With the bacteriological regulations, there must be two negative reports, from a responsible laboratory, upon smears taken from the throat of the patient by some responsible person, The time for. quarantine of scarlet fever shall be six weeks and quarantine shall be released then, only on condi- tion that the process of desquamation is complete-—H.

We recall with pride the glorious campiign made in 1896 under the matchless leadership of Hon. W. dy Bryan, whose devotion to the prine; ples of free government has endeare - him to our berrts, and installed him as the foremost leader of tric democracy. mmend the wise and patriotrs of the Democratic senaton in the with which the the ont- momentous nation was confronted on point with pleasure to the fact that they ignored partisanship and united with their fellow members in utaliz. ing every resource, moeral and ma- terial, for a vigorous and triumphant conclusion of the war. We take great pleasure in heartily endorsing the candidacy of our cz dates for the several state office Towne for congress, and pledge to each of them our heartiest support the polls close in November next. LABOR, We denounce the system which is much in vogue in this district where- by employers of labor issue to Gis-| charged employes what is common y called a “Time Check” in pretendea payment of wages due for labor honestly performed, and which the holder is forced to discount at a liberal figure in order to receive some sation for his toil. We brand tem as being infamous. It is ary to all sense of right and justice and is undemocratic in every We, therefore, pledge use their best endeavors to have placed upon the statute books of our state a law which will compel the em- ployer to pay his Sm Diver at least once a month, orin full of account upon a discharge, and provide that such payment shall be made in lawful money of the United States, or by bank check or negotiable paper not subject to discount for exchange. and which shall further provide that a heavy fine shall be imposed upon all violators of such statute. TAXES. We denounce the tax laws which the Republican party has placed upon the statute books of our state, enact- ed, we believe, for the sole purpose*of ‘alizing tax dodging, and make it possible for the holders of large tracts of lands te escape contributing their just proportion of the cost of maintaining our state and county governments. Under the provisions of these iniquitous laws tbe collection of taxes is a matter of impossibility, and the counties of this district are annually put to a large expense in advertising delinquencies without any reasonable assurance of making collections thereof. We, therefore, demand that the tax laws be revised so thot when a paacel of land shall have standing against delinquent taxes for three years the title thereof shall revert to the state; which may sell tho same and give « warranty deed to the purchaser thereof. We denounce as unjust and un- democratic the present state law that provides for the taxation of pine logs and other timber. Under its provi- sions logs are assessed at their desti- nation in the state. We believe that as a master af justice and equity they should be assessed wherever found, in transit or otherwise, on the Ist day of May, and we, therefore, demand that laws regulating their taxation be re- vised tothatend. - We demand that the ‘provisions of the Anderson tax law, providing for the taxation of unused railroad lands, be strictly enforced. TRANSPORTATION. We denounce the present railroad and warehouse commission as being a partisan body, whose offices are used solely inthe interests of the railroad and elevator corporations, and we demand that hereafter no cor- poration lawyer or railway official be made a member of said board, and that the deliberations of that body be held for the purpose of giving the people just and fair rates and charges for transportation, and allow the railroads a fair income above the cost of maintaining and operating of their roads. STATE PINE LANDS. We denounce the injustice which prevades in the present system of sell- ing state pine lands, and demand that they shall be sold ata fairand equi- table figure ann only after proper ap- prisal. SURVEYOR GENERAL OF LOGS. We denounce the laws which pro- vides for the maintenance of the office of surueyor general of logs in this state. Under its provisions the emoluments of that effice in the Minneapolis district above amount to nearly $50.000 annually, We be- lieve this to be a matter of injustice both tolumbermen and to the people asa whole. We therefore demand that office be made a salaried one, and that the exhorbiant taxation for scal- ing logs shall cease. DRAINAGE OF SWAMP LANDS.
