TUK XafJMBKB TABIFfT. The opinions ot the lumber manufac turers in Davenport, Rock Island and Mo- line concerning tha proposed repeal ot tbe duty on Canadian lumber, were fully set forth in the Democrat on Thursday last. At the meeting cf the Lumbermen's Boatd ot Trade on Friday afternoon at the Kimball, Messrs. Gould of Moline, Free man ot Davenport and Musser of Musca tine ware appointed as a committee to fjrmulate the opinioaa of the bjard on the aubject and forward the memorial oppos ing the act which passed tbe Senate to Representatives Farwell the Davenport, aod Henderson ot the Rock Island, dis trict. But a very strong pressure is being brought to bear in favor ot the repeal from the interior districts of Iowa.

Press and people seem to be urging their repre sentatives to vote tor the measure. Here is the Council Bluffs Noapariel, talking ing like this: Upon the Btonelcsa western prairies building lumber is a prime necessity. A tariff ouiv on the article is therelaro a tax ot great hardship on the pioneer settler. of all the duties levied this is the one which most retards western settlement, and which deprives thousands or set tlers of comfortable homes. Tbe high prices of building materials compels tbem to build small aud crammed tenements with insufficient rei h.

Considering that when tbe tariff duty ot an average 01 two uouars pei thousand waa levied on rough lumber it -old at fitt? per cent Us) tbau it does now. aud that the price has constantly increased under the augmented demand ana tne di minishing supplies ot raw maienai, a further bounty on tbe rapid devastation of tbe forests of the northwest is a short sighted policy. Acc: rding to the testi mony of the lumber mauutacturers betore too tarn commission tne roreeis 01 aiioui- gan and Wisconsin win oe exuauauu within twenty ears, when we khall be eotirely at the mercy ot Canadian lumber. Therefore the chief reason why incidental protectien should be giveti lo borne manufactures, lails, because this particular branch ot industry cannot oe built up into a permanent interest on ac count ot failure ot material. Thus while our federal government offers bounties of one hundred sixty acres of land for tbe planting ot ten acres of forest trees, it offers larger bouuties for tbe destruction ot the pineries which will never grow again within tbe lifetime of tbe present or tne next generation.

atenator ncuui is entitled to the thanks of tha people ot the northwest tor the stand he baa made 10 be bait ot a re duction cf duties on lumber, and we wonder that a motion to place all rough lumber on tbe free list was not adopted. Tbe Senate couli not have con sidered the question in its consequences or else it would have placed rough lumber on the free list. We hope that Mr. Kas- son will, when the bill cornea up in the bouse, introduce a modification in this di rection and that all of he members from this and the western states will give the motion their earnest support. These are the arguments that must be met.

Tbe people who urge them are ig- norant of tbe tact that closing I mills on the Missiasppi will enhance the price of lumber 23 per cent wbioh it would probably do.

And Mr. F. was on his mettle in a sec ond. "The only necessary qualification for membership," he replied, "is to be an advocate ot the good ot the people and the Union, and to be opposed to any wort'ilws waste of the people's earnings without a return ot benefits to the masses; and to cheerfully contribute tor tbe educa tion ot every youth to fit him or ber for business life. And to submit to the will of the majority.

And the moment that the people of this district are granted the privilege of deciding the foreign lan guage tax at the ballot box, the decision will be acquitsced in without a murmur. But as lon; a tbe heel of trany is pressed ou the throats oi tbe people ot this city, I shall battle for to the ax tent of my ability.

FBaOJl. The announcement of the death of Mrs. Mathias Frtthm will surprise the public and pain many peop in this city. Tha sad event occurred at half-oast 0 o'clock last evenu ir. The deceased bad bee a resident if Dayenport for thirty-three years, and had many acquaintances, who will read a sketch ot her lite, with inter est.

Mr. Kathanna Frahm waa a native of Schleswig-Holstem born in 1827, the daughter of John Millot. In 1843 ahe sailed fiom Hamburg for America with her father and a fellow passenger in the ship was Mathias Frahm. Father and daughter came to Davenport, and so did Mr. Frahm and two yean thereafter, in 1850, the two young people became hus band and wife.

Mr. Frahm entered upon his present business in an humble way and bn wife aided him by every method suitable for ber. They prospered through hard work and economy, and Mr. Frahm has always attributed much ot his busi ness success to his helpmeet. Four children were bora to Mr.

and Mrs. Frahm all sons and one alone survives with the father. William perished in the steamship Schiller disaster at the Scilly islands in 1874 and in tbe past three who was one of the few passengers on the Schiller who were saved, and August have died also. The mother bore these afflic tions with a becoming spirit. Mrs.

Frahm was taken ill on Friday last abdominal suffering- and difficult breathing being the ailments. She had become very large, and to this tendency was attributed ber sickness. At 9 o'clock yesterday Dr. Peck was called to see her; he pronounced the ailment fattening of the heart, and saw that she could not long survive. The patient was unable to breath save in a Bitting poeture.

The Doctor was summoned again in the afternoon, but he could do no more tban administer amehoraaves. At 6 o'clock death relieved the sufferer. Mis. Frahm had done a great deal ot good through her charities, which were almost innumerable though never ostentatious. When she would hear ot people suffer- ng from want, she could not rest until she knew that their necessities bad been anet.

Her death is a sore affliction for the bus- band 'and the only son Henry and the sympathy cf tbe community will be theirs. Tne luneral will take place lrom tte residence ou Harrison street, at 2 o'clock to-morrowMondayj afternoon. THK PBlZK UA.ttK.BKg).

Ambrose Seminary in thia city has taken place. Though the institution was established less than nine months ago, ita students are thirty six in number, nearly all of them young men, several of whom are lrom distant places. Tbe Rev. J. A.

Bchulte ia at the head ot the faculty. The institution bas been cramped for room opening as it did tor the first year in the second story ol St. Marguerite's school, house at goodly building to be sure, but never planned for seminary purposes. The prospect is that the institution will have a building of its own before another winter cornea. Tne branches taught, and in which the students have just been examined, are Latin, Greek, German, French, Christian doctrine, rhetoric, belle lettres, elocution, orthography, history, geography, litera ture, composition, book-keeping, calculus, trigonometry, geometry, algebrs, arithme tic, penmanship, natural philosophy, physiology, chemistry, geology, and botany.

Quite a number of tbe patrons and other fnenda of the seminary were in attend ance, and were gratified at tbe evidence ot thoroughness in the instruction shown, and the aeal ot the faculty. Tbe students named as entitled to honorable mention for proficiency were Measrs. B. Mackin, F. Huor, J.

Reid, Otten, O. Woeber, J. Jacobs, Ed. McNa- mara and J. Ryan.

It is tbe intention of Bishop McMullen to erect a suitable building tor this school this year, in aome central locality, and have it ready for occupancy in September. The plana will embrace a large structure, for the purpose is to have St. Ambrose one ot the largest educational institutions of its order in the west but only a portion of the contemplated building will be erected at present. The rest wiil follow as Seeded. It will be a seminary that will be a credit to the diocese, an ornament to the bity and an honor to its founder.

In the trial of H. C. F.

Jensen of this citv. in the U. a. court at Keokuk. ior fradulent pension business, last week, re ferred to in Friday's Democrat new points in the law regulating the fees ot pension agents were raised by tbe lion.

Jas. T. Lane, counsel for JeDsen. As ated in our last issue Jensen was acquited on the charge of forcing names to pension applications. In the indictment of Jensen for obtain ing exorbitant fees, there were eleven counts.

Now then section 5433 ot the re vised statutes ot the United States pro vides tbat any agent who shall retain any greater compensation for bis services than is provided the "title pertain ing to pensions'1 shall be guilty of a misdemeanor. Now section 4785 ot the "title pertaining to ptnalons" provides that the agent shall not demand nor re ceive more than $25 00, and this only tbrongh the consent ot tbe commissioner of pensions. Now, on June 1873. Congress passed another law, fixing the fee to be chanted at $10. and no more charges were to be made at all by con tract, thus repealing the lormer law as stated in section but not repealing section 5,485, which prescribed the pen alty.

To cure this befect, Congress in 1881 passed another law, declaring that the statute limiting tees to $10 should ap ply to the act of "78 The most of the Jensen tees were collected alter the repeal, but not betore the curative act, and thtretore Mr. Lane contended he was not amenable to the penalties. The result was that Jensen was beli guilty on four counts.whcjein the fees were taken after the passage of the curative act of 1881, and not guilty as to the sevan otb er counts. The points raised by Mr. Lane were a surprise to tbe Bar and the Court, though he showed that there had been two deci tions by Federal Judges one in Indiana and one in Missouri on the very question one sustaining bis position and the other opposing it.

Judge Love sustained Mr. Lane on tbe points. The sentence waa pronounced soon after the decision was made and it waa that Jensen pay a fino of fifty dollars. Mr. Jensen was released from custody on his own woid, and be arrived borne yesterday.

It will be remembered tbat tte TJ. attorney ssked acquittal oi Mr. Jensen on the charge ot forging names to pension papers on the ground thet he didn't think Jensen was accountable tor his acU. And what convinced the district attorney was the tact that Jensen went to bim and oth er membeis ot the Bar with the very books and documents which helped to procure his contended that they were proof positive of his inno.ence.
