Binger Hermann ought to make an eflicient commissi^tier of the general land office, having had much experience in that line of official work. Coming from the West he is posted on the needs of this section of the country in which are situated most of the public lands, and this should be of benefit to him in the administration of the office. Mr Hermann's appoint ment will be generally approved in this state. The action taken by the various stock associations in the counties tributary to the Cascade timber re serve, in sending a delegate to Washington to properly present the matter to congress with regard to allowing stock to graxe on the re serve, is a good move. Over 40,- 000,000 acres have now been with drawn for forest reserves, and un less some of it is thrown open it will cause a large’amount of dam ages to thousands of people in all the Rockv mountain and Pacitie coast states. It is net surprising that college« and other educational institutions I should lie sending protests to con- 1 gress against that clause of the new , McKinley tariff bill which will put a stop to the free entry of hooks for the use of educational -establish ments. If protests would do any good they would be poured |ic against almost every item in the bill. Some of the left-over appropria tion bill< were rushed through the house at a rate of about a millioc dollars a ruiuute On the Corner South of the French Hotel, Main Street - The new tariff bill i8 principally framed in the interest of naanufae- turers. The wool grower« haye been given all they asked for, it is doubtful if the very high dutie« proposed on (wools will be of muck advantage to them, because they will not be able to control the price. | That will be fixed by the big buy ers and speculators. Even if the wool growers receive some little benefit,it will be small in compari son with the vast aggregate increas ed cost of woolen goods to consutn- res As for other agricultural in terests, all talk of their protection by a tariff law is simply absurd. Duties on agricultural products are merely a “sop to cerberus,” a “tub to a whale,” a patronizing pat on the back which the sharper give« to the flat with one (hand while he picks his pocket with the other. But the bill might be worse; it will be well to pass it at once and be | done with it.—Welcome. The democrats. populists and sil ver republicans of Michigan are working in perfect unison, and have uominated the same candidates for sumpreme judge and regents of state institutions te be voted for at the coining election in that state.
