SKKATOR VAN WYCK in the senate
on Monday moved to put all wood
and articles manufactured from wood
excepting household furnlturo , on thi
free list. There are good grounds foi
the sonator'n motion. The duty 01
lumber has done much to stlmulati
true cutting , and tree cutting ought ti
bj hindered by all reasonable moans
ForuaU which are the growth of thuu
sands of years are being destroyed ii
a season and our lumber supply is rap
Idly diminishing. Even if as Senate
Oorgor saya , we have enough timbo
to last fifty yearn , the duty on lumbo
ought to bo remitted.

AWTX-MONOPOJLY WARFARE-
Nothing gives such supreme satis
faction to the editor of the Jltra'd as
a word in favor of railroad construc
tion , in any of the anti rnouopoly rn
p"ra of this state. It taps the barrel
of adjectives at once and a brilliantly
sarcastic editorial on the inconsisten
cies of "roaring anti-monopolists" is
the Immediate reajlt. O/course / no
ono knowa bolter than Dr. Miller that
the anti-monopoly party are not op
posing railroad * , honestly built an i
operated with a respect for common
deconcy. Oindor , however , has never
boon ono of the shining characteris
tics of the Herald and its readers are
accordingly treated to a discourse on
the "destroying and consuming curao"
of anli monopoly wmf ire
There ia probably not n farmer in
Nabraaka who does not favor heartily ,
us rapid an extension of railroad aya *
tama as la conniatont with tin nooda of
our thinly Bottled territory and com
patible with Bound fltinncooring on the
part ot its constructors. There are
few who will not agree that railroads
have boon "invaluable blcesingV in
hastening the development of the
state and In brlngicg producer and
consumer closer to each other. And
there are just aa few who do not de
sire to ace the companies earn a good
return on their legitimate investment
and who are not entirely willing to as
sist towards that end.
What "tho roaring anti-monopolists"
are endeavoring to secure ia not the
injury of the railroads but the restric
tion of tyrannical railroad manage
ments. They complain that though
over capitalization , construction rings
and combinations of c ilhials , the actual
legitimate capital of the road is dilli
cult to ascertain and the publio
are compelled to pity dividends
more ou water than on Block ,
representing cost of construction
and equipments. The roaring "anli-
monopolists" charge , and provo their
charges by the ovldonco of the railroad -
road managers , that the corporations
are daily defying the laws and con
ducting their builness with the groat-
oat disregard of the publio interest.
They complain that the railroads re
fuse to pay their taxoa and throw the
burden of their protection upon the
citizens of the state. Thuao for icily
stated are the facts forming the basis
of the demand for legislative act ! in
which comes from the "roaring anti-
monopolists. " The details in the
counts in the indiolmont are two nu
merous and familiar to mention.
All that the anti-monopolists ask ia
that justice shall bo done to them and
to all citizens of Nebraska by the cor
porations which they support. They
desire to cripple no Industry , to de
stroy no capital , to block no Improve
mont. Bat they do demand , aud
they Intend to inoorporato that demand
mand into a fair and an operative law
that the corporations shall porfom
their duties to the people as commor
carriers without favor and dleorimlua
tion ; that their charges shall bo reason '
able and umf jrm , and that the Uxui
which they have so long evaded shall nc
longer bo paid by an already overburdened
donod people. And this ia the pro
gramme of the "roaring nntl-monopo
lints. "
IT is high time that the remarks o

not an lota of proof. The beat ov
donee that such was not the caao , ai
u the letters which Djrsey has boo

publican president and n republics
cabinet have refused to cover up h

Neither Daraoy nor those who a

CHANDLER'S RESOLUTION
A resolution presented by Secretary
Chandler at the mooting of the topub
licati national committee , and which
was adopted mthout'dlecuaslou , reads
an follows :
Re.iulvcd , That the call of the next
republican national convention shall
bo BO broad and liberal ai to invite
the co-operation ( without imposing
any other tctt of f < ulf > ) of all citizens
who are in iavor of elevating and dig
nifying American labor , protecting
at'd ' extending dome industries , giving
free popular education to thu musses
of the people , securing free suffrage
and an honest counting of btllota , and
cflcctunlly protecting all human rights
in every section of our common coun
try , and who are willing to support
the nominees of the c invention.
It will at oncn bo remarked that the
"only test of fealty" actually required
is a willingness lo support the notni
rices of the convention , The other
rcquiromenls all vottrdiiro nappcmod to
possess. Everyone , of whatever party , ! *
in favor of elevating and dlgnifyinc ;
American labor , approves cf popular
education , a frco ( suffrage , an honest
ballot and a proper protection to
American Industry. None of the sub
{ eels are Isnucn any longer. What
peculiar significance can they have as
a call to the republican ranks.
Why cannot , the pirty leaders un
doratand that the next campaign can
not bo won by platform platitudes
which have done service for twenty
years ? Are they BO blind that they
fail to BOO that the 1,500,000 republicans
licans who either refused to vote at
the late elections or who yolcd for
other than the party candidates can
not bo recruited again Into the ranks
by war cries which long ago ceased to
aronao enthusiasm ?
The success of the republican party
has boon duo to a fooling among voters
that its po'.ljy and its loaders wore
abreast of the limes. They balioved
that it had u mission to fultiil and a
great cause to sarvo. They reposed
trust in ltn management aa leaders of
current thoughtand statesmen anxious
and able to solve the problems of the
day. And , believing this , they gave
support to its platforms aud elected
Its candidates. But parties must
either advance or die. Political stag-
nallou is political death. Mr. Chan
dler does not voio9 the beat sentiment
of republicanism if his resolution Is
intended In any senao to outline thu
future political programme of the re
publican party. Such a programme
will scarcely re-awaken the waning In
terest which a largo number of re
publican voters have already evidenced
In the party existence. It will neither
arouse the halting veterans nor call
now recruits to the thinning ranks.
The old tunes when they have out
lived their usefulness , not alone their
novelty , fall fht upon the public oar.
* It ia the questions of the day Incorpor
ated into the party life which alone
have political Interest. Aud theao
are practically untouched by Mr.
Chuudler'fl resolution.
Tin : hoUB ) youterday passed a roso-
lutlon intioduood by Mr. Ilobberta ,

anthfy every fair minded man that
Rosewater told the truth and thai
