KoreatPolicy.
INthe Standard's Washington corre^^spondence thla morning la given a^synopsis of I ho report of the com^^mittee appointed by the National Acud-^emy of Sciences to formulate a forest^policy for the I'nlted States. It was^upon this ri'iaut that Mr. Cleveland^baaed his notorious forestry reservation^order, which would practically close^dow n the mines of lint to, seriously^cripple nearly all the mining Interests^of Montana and diaaatrously affect up^^wards of a hundred thousand people in^this state alone. The report ia Inter^^esting as showing the superficial in^^formation of its fratners, gent lemon^whose ^Investigations^ led thcni to rec^^ommend reservations which Included^villages, farms and railroads. They^also recommend us an adjunct to the^Interior department the creation of an^elaborate arid expensive forest bureau,^with a variety of divisions, subdivis^^ions, sections and districts, and an^army of head officers, appointed by the^president and holding office for life, und^the first of whom at least shall be^chosen from graduates of the military^academy at West Point. This laat fea^^ture Is evidently Intended to relieve the^t ongested condition of the military^service^West Point Is gradual lug more^^oung men than the army has places^for. I'nitcd States ottleers do not tuke^to the woods In time of war. nor would^such a speotaolo be a t hulling one in^time of peace. Thai they would possess^any special learning or Illness for the^office of forest keepers Is absurd. The^whole scheme savors of officious mili^^tarism.
Itla to be hoped that President Mi -^Klnley will take this report for Juat^what's worth^and It's worth very lit^^tle. He haa sent a apeclul commission^^er Into Cuba, let him. If he vv lahea. send^a special commissioner into the states^affected by the Cleveland order, uu able,^broad-minded eonselent lulls business^man or lawyer -not a military officer^a man who will get out of his Pullman^tar, Investigate the subject upon Its^merits, see for himself, get at the actual^facts and honestly report what he tlmls.^with such recommendations as he^deems best.
Thewhole state of Montana protests^against the monstrous Injustice of the^Cleveland order. The slate. In fad. has^taken official action. Both branches of^the legislature last F. binary concurred^unanimously In a resolution appointing^ii Joint committee to send a tel. train to^Senators Mantle and Carter voicing the^hi ntiments of the legislative assembly^In opposition to the order and urging^our representatives at Washington to^Uae every legitimate meana to secure its^revocation. We repeat that Ihe legisla^^ture and the people of Montana are of^one mind In relation to this matter, not^^withstanding the nttttttde of the Helena^Independent, which for the sake of ar^^gument, we presume, often Indulges a^faculty for being contrary.
HDWAIIDATKINSON thinks he^has made a discovery which will^llnally knock the life out of the^silver issue He has heard of a mine in^New South Wales, owned by Britishers,^which produced last year twelve mill^^ion ounces of silver at a cost of tw.ntv^five cents an ounce, and ho eaaMkMOa^a heavy article to the Huston Herald,^which he concludes with these words:^It would be well If the commission^apiailnteil by the president to promote^a bimetallic treaty of legal lender, un^^der which the I'nlted States may he^forced to accept British silver at what^^ever it may cost as the equivalent of^gold at a fixed rate, should give their^attention |g the Broken Hill illslriet^and to other British silver mines. a^close Investlgatlon'mlght develop the^origin of the fones which have been^exerted In thla country In the effort to^put off upon us silver bullion csiing flj^cents an ounce or less, now selling at liil^cents or less, as the equivalent of^ll.l'St'a. How much longer may the peo-^ple of this country be subjected to a^delusion such as this voting lo rob^themselves of the products of their ow n^work.''
It'san old argument that Mr. Atkin^^son Is working and proves absolutely^nothing except that the goldbuga who
bringIt up have a very narrow horizon.^Both silver mines and gold mines of^exceptional riches are occasionally^WW k. and If a silver mine Is found^capable for a longer or shorter period^of i.inducing twelve million ounces of^silver a year, which Is less than seven^per cent, of the total output of PWti. at^a cost of twenty-five cents an ounce,^gold mines are sometimes discovered^whose profits are even bigger.
IfMr. Atkinson should find a mine^yielding a million dollara' worth of gold^at an operating egfMBM of only a thou^^sand dollars, would he advocate the de^^monetization of gold^ The one propo^^sition is no more absurd than the other.^He takes no account of the thousands^upon thousands of prospectors whose^lifetime of hard t ^il Is barren of re^^sults, nor of the vast expenditures of^money in mining development and ex^^ploration work for which only the^meagerest returna are ever received^Taking all these things into considera^^tion, the cost of the world's, silver has^been estimated by statisticians fully its^learned aa Mr. Atkinson to be as high^ua $1 Till an ounce. New South Wales^may have a mine that Is temporal lly^yielding sliver at a cost of twenty-five^cents; but what of the enormous^am..mil of money tied no In Montana,^mines | fiieh Ihe action of this govern^^ment has forced Into absolute idleness.
TheCampaign in Ohio.
Tiikrepublican powers at Wash-^inKion are beginning to reallie^the gravity of the situation In^Ohio. The Ohio campaign will 1sb by^far the most Important of the year, the^republicans realize that the loss of the^state, the home of McKlnley and Man^^na, eight months after the return of the^party to power will be an event of far-^i..o lung and, to them, disastrous con-^sc.|ii, rices. The battle will be fought^out upon the silver issue The demo^^crats will invite the silver republican*^to fuse with them, an Invitation that^will undoubtedly bo accepted, as the^^ lee in.i^ rata are willing to treat their^allies with every fitting consideration.^The great orators of belli parties will^stump the state, there will be as much^if not mure eloquence and fireworks^than last fall. Bryan will be there and^that means that Ohio will be stirred up^from center to circumference. It ia^quite likely, loo. that Mr Hartman will^be invited to participate in the conflict.
PublicTrials.
ANuncommonly interesting deci^^sion has been rendered by the^supreme court of Michigan. The^(ase was that of one Yinger. who waa^tried and convicted of criminal assault.^Much of the testimony being of a filthy^character, the trial jtidse ordered that^all persona be excluded from the court^room except attorneys, newspaper re^^porters, those who were connected by^tics of friendship with the defendant or^the complaining witness, and the usual^court officers. Ya. ger was convicted^and Immediately appealed on the^ground that the whole public was de^^prived of the right to be present in^limit. It was not even attempted to^be shown In fact that the prisoner hud^suffered In his rights by the absence of^the crowd. The prisoner almply stood^upon the letter of hia constitutional^right to have the crowd there, and that^was his case before the higher court.^The constitution says. In every crimi^^nal prosecution the acc used shall have^the right to a speedy and public trial^by an impartial Jury.'' The supreme^court has decided that the word ^pub^^lic^ must lie Interpreted in its Very^broadest sense, and that it does not^matter under what circumstances It ia^sought to restrict the public's right to^be present at criminal trials. Y'aeger,^therefore, gets a new trial. The Detroit^Tribune demurs to the decision, holding^that, as far as essential publicity Is^concerned, the presence of the news^^paper reporters us the representatives^of the largest possible public, and the^presence of all the friends of all the^parties immediately concerned in the^trial, is publicity ample to meet the In^^tent of a constitutional provision of this^sort. The evident design of the consti^^tutional provision is the guarantee that^no man shall be tried secretly and with^^out the means of being In constant^touch with the outside world, but the^Mic higan supreme court haa made the^Instrument broader than this.
SomeAlarm In I'tah.
UTAHnewspapers protest vigor^^ously against their state being^made the scene of Mr 11. b^' pro^^posed co-operative commonwealth. Ac^^cording to the published slalom, Mts of^the scheme, Mr. Debs hopes to rally^from the Kaatern and Midi:, states^rial.WW male voters, who shall go to^I'tah and as soon as they acquire a^residence there caplute the slate p..lit-^1. ally and then by making th. n... -sarv^( hang)a It: its constitution and laws re^^solve it into a ^co-operative common^^wealth.^ that If. to aay. a communistic^commonwealth.
I'tahpeople don't like It. They object^on the ground, first, thai Mg |, m ,a|.^iatlc project, even if su(e essful in at^^taining its political objects, would in^^evitably result in failuic. entailing^heavy burdens upon the stab besides^bringing it Into dlarepute. ^Hi a far it^will be oarrlgd out.^ says in,. Deaaret^Newa, ^or whether there really will lie^gnr aerloua attempt towards it. remains
WarWith K.nglund.
|TIs all very well for diplomats and^I members of peace societies on lvoth^sides of the Atlantic to assert thai^a war with Kngland ia an Impossibility.^Such an assumption furnishes a basis^for outbursts of maudlin sentiment and^la a great help to our ambassadors lo^the court of St. James in replying to^toasts. Blood may be thicker than^water, as H. Seton-Katr. M. P., asaerts^in a recent article in the North Ameri^^can Review, but It must not be forgot^^ten that Kngland Is the only rival^power on the face of the broad earth^that the I'nlted States has cause to^fear.
WhileIt is true that the two countries^are In theory bound together by ties of^language, tradition and history, yet^these are after all but sentimental ties^which are easily rent w hen It becomes^a practical question ,.f national devel^^opment or common lal interest.
Inthe past these ties have not pro^^ve tiled war nor have they in the least^Influenced the course of national poli^^tics or action in either the I'nlted States^or (treat Britain. It did not hinder^Kngland from impressing our seamen^previous to 1M2. nor did It prevent her^from assisting the Confederacy in Its^struggle with the North. Our national^life sprung from hostility to Kngland^and our development in tfle future In^^volves the fiercest of commercial wars^with that country for the possession of^the markets of the world.
Tothat country which Is the largest^producer of iron, both In the raw and^manufactured shape, belongs the com^^mercial supremacy of the world. For^long years this distinction belonged to^Kngland hut In the last few yesrs the^I'nlted States has overtaken and^passed her and now our manufacturers^of iron, and even the raw material, are

COUNTERBLASTSTO TOBACCO
TheBook Published by King James of^Kngland.
Fromthe Westminster llevlevv.
Thework published by King .Linns^best known to the generality of reader!^Is his famous ^Counterblasto to Tobac^^co.^ The first, also, it was which he^Issued after succeeding to the thfOM^Of England. His reason for entering^the lists against the new and popular^habit of smoking was. as he InforniH us^In the early pages of the treatise, be^^cause it was a habit sinful in the sight^of God and foolish In the estimation of^the world. But these reasons being^scarcely considered sufficient, he goes^on to ridicule the practice, commenting^on the folly of Imitating ^the barba^^rous and beastile manners of the wild^godlesse and slavish Indians.^ Then^he turns to the injury In their tem^^poral affairs sustained by his people^owing to their excessive devotion to the^weed. ^Now, how you are by this cus^^tom disabled In your goods,^ he re^^marks, ^let the gentry of this land bear^wltnesse, some of them bestowing^three, some four hundred pounds a^year upon this precious stlnke, which^I am sure might be bestowed upon^many farre better uses.^ The litera^^ture upon tobacco, whether considered^as a weed to smoke or as a medicine^In the Pharmaeopaeia. is so large that^only the barest mention must suffice^here. When James published his^^Counterblaste,^ society was divided^over the merits of the plant, one party^lauding It as a panacea for nil disease s,^on the authority of the French physi^^cians, Monardes and KotUnits, ns well^as by the testimony of Nicot, French^Ambassador to Portugal, who had in^^troduced It Into France: the other^sneering at It as a useless shrub, whose^virtues were as mythical as the famous^elixir of youth. The mistaken idea that^Italeigh had anything to do with the^introduction of tobacco into England -^the honor of this undoubtedly resting^with Master Ralph Lane, who was In^charge of the second expedition which^went out to Kaleigh's colony In Vir^^ginia^may have had something to do^with the antipathy James conceived to^^ward the weed. The balance of evi^^dence all goes to show that Kalelgh^was In possession of some shameful^secret relating to the monarch^whose^vicious proclivities arc matter of his^^tory^for the latter never rested until^he secured the execution of one of the^greatest of Englishmen.
