The New York World prints an ex haustive review of the revival of In dustry following the election, show ing that 1,000,000 men are marching briskly forward to reopened fac tories, freshly whirring looms and spindles and to railroad and other shops. From every section of the United States the whistles of the shops and factories are shrieking a rousing wel come to the battalions of employes who are responding promptly to the call for more help to man the plants which have been entirely closed or practically out of commission pend ing the result of the national elec tion. In each quarter of the nation smoke pours from xthe chimneys of establishments which have , been working reduced forces of men at half time. Rush orders for addition al equipment have poured Into the of fices of machinery builders in vol ume sufficient to swamp them and creating at once a tremendous de mand for additional employes. All along the line the word has been passed that prosperity has ar rived, simultaneously with the elec tion of William H. Taft, and, like a Slant, the business .and manufactur ing Interests have been roused from the pre-election lethargy and, shak ing off the shackles of uncertainly and distrust of radical changes in economic conditions, have ordered the fires rekindled and the forces doubled. THE TARIFF WILL HE REVISED. Tariff revision is likely to be a preferred subject in the legislative programme at the national capital. In an interview on Wednesday Mr. Taft, the president-elect, declared that n revision of the tariff is es pecially urgent, and on. the same day Chairman Payne of the Ways and Means Committee of the House of Representatives issued from his home in Auburn, N. Y., a call for hearings on the tariff. Those hearings will begin on Tuesday next, November 10, and will continue until Decem ber 1, the Friday ureceding the meeting of Congress, the sessions be ginning at 9:30 a. m., each day. Mr. Payne says that the programme ar ranged allows more than double the tlmo hitherto given on any tariff bill, it is understood that much preliminary work has already been done in preparation for the hearings. Information relative to the subjects covered by each paragraph has been supplied by experts in the technical bureaus of the government, and data as to manufacturing conditions abroad have been furnished by tho Departments of Stato and of Com merce and Labor. Suggestions for changing the language of tho several paragraphs so ns to meet decisions of tho courts hae also been drawn. It is urged by tho committee that where possiblo n particular subject should bo presented by ono person, so ns to save the tlmo of tho com mittee, which is necessarily limited. It is intimated that tho bill to bo presented by tho conuuitteo will, in nil probability, impose both maxi mum nnd minimum duties. Tho bo Jlef seems to bo entertained In Wash ington that n tariff revision bill will bo enacted In tlmo to go into effect nt tho beginning of tho next fiscal year. CARELESS LETTER WRITERS. AVhon it is known that over 100, 000,000 misdirected letters are mailed every year in tho United States it is tlmo that something is done to educato the peoplo to uso rontor caro In this respect. Tho tieod of reform is prossing. Bad nd Irosfios ami misdirections are cost ing tho government millions of dol lars In monoy and dally wastes tho tlmo of n small nrmy of dorks nnd carrlors who try to got things right. Every shilling turned out by tho English mint shows a profit of nearly ithreo-penco. --L.- TO STUDY TIMIIER CONSERVA TION'. The future development of the lumber industry in this country lies in the direction of a closer utiliza tion of forest products. Both forest ers and practical lumbermen now agree on this point. Just wuat can be done In this field is well Illustrated In the oper ations at the mill of the Great South ern Lumber Company, which has just reopened Its plant at Bogalusa,' Louisiana, in response to the in creased demand for lumber after the recent slump In business. This is perhaps tne largest sawmill in the United States, if not in the world, and is capable of turning out the enormous amount of 600,000 feet of sawn lumber board measure per day. A reader can get a fair Idea of this quantity of lumber when he is told that its output is enough, to build a little town of forty houses, along with a good-sized church and a school house every day. This company was quick to grasp the significance of the rapid deple tion of timber resources. Last year It began a co-operative Investigation in wood utilization with the United States Forest Service and arrange ments have just been completed for a renewal of the experiments. The work will be along practical lines and will be aimed to secure a closer utilization of the products of the southern lumber mills and at the came time produce a margin of profit in excess of that obtained by the methods which are now practiced. The field for work along this line is broad. It is will known that the superior grades of lumber are ob tained from old mature trees, provid ed they are not weakened by decay or other influences. In other words, a thousand feet board measure of lum ber, sawed from a tree two feet In diameter, costs less and Is worth more than a thousand feet sawed from a tree only eight inches in diameter . Moreover, timber cut from young trees usually contains a large amount of sapwood. If ties, poles, etc., are cut from such mater ial, they will decay far more rapidly than if cut from heartwood. It is not good business policy, however, in a great many cases to saw the most valuable timber into commodi ties which are relatively low in cost, such as ties and poles. It is the in tention therefore, of the company to find out just what size and classes of timber can be best utilized for the cheaper commodities when given a preservative treatment. To this end a careful study will be made to ascertain the amount and value of tho produqts sawed from trees of different sizes and just how each can be best utilized so as to se cure greatest economy and profit. For example, can a tree eight inches in diameter be best utilized for ties or for flooring, and how will the profits compare if treated with those sold untreated? It seoms reasona ble to suppose that the profits de rived from the sale of treated tim ber will exceed those from untreated timber. Moreover, the greater use of chem lyically preserved wood will undoubt edly result in that wood giving a greater life In service. Hence, tho amount of timber cut annually in the United States, simply to replace that which has decayed, will be material ly decreased, and a further conser vation of forest resources will result. Recent estimates by the Forest Ser vico place this reduction at 10 per cent of the total timber cut. The practical benefits of these experi ments and of the Investigations for tho utilization of sawmill waste are at once apparent. THE DAY OF MILLIONS. Wo Americans have gotten so in tho habit of talking "millions," that wo have literally cheapened tho ordi nary estimates in which tho common er phases of human comfort nnd In dulgence were wont to be regarded. It is a bad sign. Tho poorer of us must measure our lack of means by gunges that emphnslzo the actualities, and make us the poorer in the awful contrast, while tho ordinary, quiet venture, Involving meagro thousands, is mado comparatively contemptible in tho light of the braggart excesses of the day. Marshfleld is ono of the cities of tho land absolutely without a millionaire; but we all gabble mil lions with tho samo unction and spirit ns If wo were a treasure cen ter of tho universe. It has its comi cal sido; but it is a bad sign, all tho samo. Tho Cnnndlan government Is ox ponding grent sums of monoy In now railroad construction, in impro vements of waterways, in industrial bounties, subsidies to steamships nnd In various other ways to develop tho country. Tho reclamation of tho marsh lands of tho United States Is ono of tho most Important natural develop ments confronting us at this time. WITH THE t I TOAST AND TEA s, good evening. ' it The true basis of national ' H wealth is not gold, but wood. X H Forest destruction Is the sin ' ii that has caused us to lose our X H earthly paradise. War, pestl- J? i lencc, storms, fanaticism, and it li Intemperance, together with all " H other mistakes and misfortunes, X X has not caused half as much X X permanent damage as that fatal yi ii. crime against fertility of our X tuotner t;arin. FELIX L. OSWALD. .yL..'l'l&LSS r i.-- -i- vf- v -&- - ', VANITY". The sun comes up and the sun goes down, And day and night are the same as one; The year grows green, and the year grows brown, And what is it all, when all is done? Grains of somber or shining sand, Gliding into or out of the hand. And men go down in ships to the seas, And a hundred ships are the same as one; And backward and forward blows the breeze, And what is it all, when all is done? A tide with never a shore in sight, i Getting steadily on to the night. The fisher dropped his net in the stream, And a hundred streams are the same as one. And the maiden dreameth her love lit dream, And what is it all, when all Is done? The net of the fisher the burden breaks, And always the dreaming dreamer wakes. ANON. The satisfaction a man has in los ing his money on a bet Is that his family didn't spend it foolishly. "No," declared Mr. Nagget, "there never was a woman on earth who could refrain from turning around to rubber at some other woman's clothes." "No?" remarked his wife, sweetly. "Didn't you ever hear of Eve? Teacher Yes, dear children, every American boy has a chsnee to be president. Small boy I don't wantjto be president. Teacher Don't want to be presi dent! Why, what do you want to be, Willie? Small boy I want to be a cham peen second baseman. What a great misfortune this is, tho habit of considering the weather! of thinking that we must consider the weather. It Is largely due, is it not, to clothes? No mention is made of rain in tho Garden of Eden; but we must not, therefore, contend that rain was disagreeable and omitted; we must recollect that Adam and Eve did not need to consider rain; furthermore, in blessed Ignorance, they did not know that It whs any thing to be considered. To mind the rain no more than the May sunshine, but to plunge into it and let tho drops pelt as they will? to accept it without a thought of discomfort, but, rather, to enjoy the thronging presence of it; to pursue ono's daily stint regardless of whether the sky be dun or blue this Is a state which we long, long have lost. Wo regain it, some of us, In the wilderness camp, where wo hunt, or fish, if the day bo dark or if the day be bright. And where wo find that tho dash of the soft rain on one's faco is not death, after all; thnt wetness and dryness are mere ly relative terms. All the centuries of fussing and fuming with the weather have not affected tho weather ono particle; it still rains, and snows, and sleets, and blows, just as dictated by circum stances. Therefore what's tho uso? Are your puny diatribes, or mine, of any greater potency than those of othors gono beforo? Evidently not; accordingly try tho plan of being friendly with tho wenthor of agree ing with it instead of fighting It and, 'pon my word, presently It will bo ngreolng with you. E. L. Sabln.
