There Is Joy in the For est Service over- the action of the United States Circuit Court of Appeals at San Francisco in affirming the decision of Judge Hunt, of Montana, which holds in effect that the Forest Service has the right to regulate grazing within National forests, and can impose penalties upon stock-owners who graze their sheep or cattle -within reserves wthout permission of the department. There have been decisions in the lower courts both sustaining and reversing the action of the Forest Service in this mat ter, but the question has never reached the United States Supreme Court, and un til it Is finally passed upon by that body it will not be definitely known what the authority of the department really is. In the-meantime the Forest Service is pro ceeding on the assumption that It Is acting within Its legal right in regulating grazing in the National forests, and it is greatly strengthened in this assumption by the decision referred to above. The facts of the Montana case era substan tially as follows: In December, 1904, Thomas Shannon, a Montana cattleman, allowed his cattle to drift upon the Little Belt National for est, without getting permission from the forest Service. Suit was brought against him by the District Attorney for Mon tana, and on March 18, 1907, Judge Hunt, in the United States Circuit Court for Montana, rendered a decision in favor of the Government and issued an injunction perpetually restraining Mr. Shannon from allowing his cattle to drift upon the National forests. 'Montana has a fence law by which land owners must fence their land before they can obtain redress from stockmen whose cattle, feeding upon the open public do main, range upon and Injure the private lands. Mr. Shannon's counsel argued that this state law should apply as against the United States, tout Judge Hunt held that the power of Congress over the public lands, including the National forests. Is complete; that Congress has lawfully delegated to the Secretary of Agriculture the authority to make regulations to pro tect the forests; that the Secretary has properly made a regulation that cattle shall not range upon the forests without permit, and that consequently Mr. Shan non was a trespasser whn he allowed his cattle to drift upon the Little Belt forest, although it was unfenced. Mr. Shannon appealed to the United States Circuit Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit, at San Francisco. .The court has affirmed Judge Hunt's decision, and this Judgment Is binding upon all LFederal courts in the Ninth circuit. A similar case is pending in the United States Circuit Court for Colorado, which is In the Eighth circuit. The decision at San Francisco upholds the department regulations governing grazing in National forests in Oregon. Washington and Idaho, as well as In Montana, and unless reversed by the United States Supreme Court," the regula tions of the Forest Service will stand. For the time being they are in full force and effect, as the ruling handed down at San Francisco Is from the highest court having Jurisdiction, to which appeal has thus far been taken. Tomorrow, Thursday, will positively be the last day for discount on East Side gas bills. Portland Gas Company. Asbestos shingles, made of -asbestos fiber and cement, absorb about 6 per cent of their weight in water. OREGON HAS CATTLE Leads Other Northwest States in Livestock. WYOMING HAS MOST SHEEP Tahle Showing Livestock Production of Three States Compared With Total Production of Country". Values of the Industry. OREGONIAN NEWS BUREAU, Wash ington, Feb. 18. Oregon is the leading cattle state of the Northwest; in fact, all lines combined, it is the leading live stock state of that section. It has less sheep than Idaho; fewer horses and mules than Washington, but is far ahead in its .ag gregate, as far as values are concerned. This is shown by a table of statistics pre pared by the Department of Agriculture, and made public In the Crop 'Reporter for November. The tqtal live stock in Oregon on Janu ary 1, 190S, was valued at $57,739,000: in Washington, J4S.1S8.O0O. and in Idaho, J.13,107,000. A closer study of the tables shows the details on which these totals are compiled.

Cattle. It is apparent from the foregoing figures that Oregon leads In the total number and value of cattle, other than milch cows and is also the largest producer of mules and swine, and while exceeded by Idaho In sheep and by Washington in horses and milch cows, yet its total number of these classes Is so large as to bring- Its total above that of the adjoining states. Idaho Is far and away the largest sheep state, but this Is the only branch of the live stock Industry in which it ranks Oregon and Washington. The department table gives the average values of all classes of livestock for the United States, and It is observed by com parison that in practically everything except sheep, the Northwest is well above the average. The average price of sheep for the entire United States is $3.88 per head; higher than the average price In any 'of the three states named. The average price of cattle is only $l'i.89, which Is lower than the averages in those states. The same holds true of cows, horses and swine, except in Idaho, where the average value of horses is well be low the general average of $93.41. The mules of the Northwest do not measure up to the general average price of $107.76 per- head. Wyoming Leads in Sheep. , The report shows tha Wyoming is the leading sheep state of the West, its herds numbering 5,8K5,000 at the beginning of the year. This represents a total value of $24,423,000. Montana Is a close second and New Mexico third. Wyoming, by the way, not only holds the record for number of sheep, but the average price per head, $4.15, is close to topnotch. 'Texas Is, of course, the leading cattle state, reporting on January 1 a total of 7.82S.00O head, at a total valuation of $93. 900.000. Illinois leads in the horse line, reporting a total of 1.691,000 head, the total value being given as $170,327,000. Another interesting facl brought out bv the report is that swine outnumber all -other classes of livestock; sheep being second and cattle third, while in point of total valuation horses lead, cattle are sec and and milch cows third.

Spare Moments. The young man accepting his first position fin da that results are what count the most in the world of wage earners, and that the young man who makes ready promises, and does not keep them will not be apt to be favored with an increase or salary when the personnel of the working force is gone over to see which of the men In the employ of the firm are giving efficient service and deserving of recognition. The young man must make up his mind to accept his first position with one point in view that he will work all of the time he is on duty during business hours, and that he will not allow any portion of the work to lie neglected. The small tasks, he will find, accumulate rapidly, which will make work outside of his regular hours a ne cessity. When you see a man working overtime, you can generally surmise with accuracy that he has wasted his time during the day. The young man Avho does not" keep his work strictly up to the notch will not hold a posi tion very long. The young man must learn to so di vide his work that it will last all through the day, for he htust remember one important point keep busy all of the time! Too much leisure time dur ing business hours leads to the belief that there 1 not enough work to Jus tify keeping a young man on the pay roll. A safe rule for a young man to fol low is to secure lght hours' sleep each and every night of the week, for too many social engagements, with the con sequent loss of sleep, make it a physi cal Impossibility to properly perform all duties, especially in giving hie em ployer full value for the salary paid. Many argue that an employer has no right to know how his employes spend their leisure hours. This is not so, for the employer expects every man to keep himself in the proper physical condi tion to do his work in the beet manner possible. Punctuality is a good habit for a young man filling his first position to cultivate, as It will prove of lasting benefit to him for aH time to come In the future To be exactly on the min ute, not 15 minutes earlier or later, both of which waste time, should be the ambition of every young man; in other words, he must be as "regular as the clock," to quote a popular expres sion. A bad habit to fall into is to grumble all of the time that you are doing too much work for the salary paid. When a young man Is hired by a business house It is a plain business proposition the duties of the position are fully explained, and the employe agrees to do eo much work each day for so much pay. If the young man agrees to ac cept the situation, he also agrees to do the amount of work that belongs to the position, and if he finds there is too much work for the pay. he has the privilege of seeking another situation, the same as the employer has to get another man to do the work if he learns that the young man cannot fill the position. LEARNING THE BUSINESS A Sernron Showing That Most Men Make Their Own Luck. (Spare Moments.) If one attempted to tell some people who had succeeded in life but indiffer ently, that the reason they did not do better was that they did not know their business, no doubt they would be In sulted. But the fact remains that a large proportion of failures in life are due to Incomplete knowledge of the particular business each was engaged In. Why is It that one man does better In a given line than another? The lazy man says It Is luck. Some believe It to be due to a superior mental equipment, but that cannot be invariably true when sometimes those who fail are infinitely brighter mentally than those who suc ceed. Many a man well equipped men tally lacks the faculty of putting his tal-' ents to use. ' There are many reasons, but none more Important than this: Some men study their business more closely and carefully than others, and act upon what they learn. Given two men, of equal opportunity and equal brain power, engaged In the same line of work. One is In it because he happened to land there somehow; ho takes no particular Interest in It beyond the fact that It gives him his living, and his ambitions scatter themselves in vague dreaming about falling into some thing that will make him quickly rich. The other is In It because he likes It, and his ambition takes the definite form of being a success in it, and doing it better than others do It. He studies that business from A to Z, and after he has its rudiments learned, he studies its details one by one. Perhaps In one of these he sees a chance to specialize, and by giving to that detail his whole energy and Intellect, to be able to do that par ticular feature of It better than anybody else has done it before him. Or. per haps, by giving himself a deeper knowl edge of all its details than others have, he becomes one of its generals, and Is able to assume a position of command. The first man fails In that business as a matter of course. He deserves failure. He has wasted his talents and his oppor tunities. If that was not his business, he should have found out what was, and in his chosen line have done as the sec ond man did. The second man." equally as a matter of course, has succeeded. He succeeded because he deserved to succeed, and because he earned success. Luck! There was no more luck about it than there would have been had the choice between success and failure been plain before them, and one had chosen success and the other failure. That is what they chose, and that is what thou sands of men are choosing every day. And generally the failures are explain ing to their friends how lucky the suc cesses bave been, and how misfortune and bad luck have haunted their own footsteps. - Most men make their own luck. TRY APPEALS NEAR HOME Humphrey Bill About Alaska Law suits Meets California Opposition. OREGONIAN NEWS BUREAU, Wash ington, Feb. IS. A lively scrap is looked for in the House of Representatives if Speaker Cannon permits Representative Humphrey to call up his bill providing that appeals from decisions of the Fed eral Courts In Alaska may be heard In Portland. Seattle or San Francisco. Un der the present law, all such appeals are heard In San Francisco, and litigants are' compelled to go there in order to get a hearing. Because of the long distance. Alaskans object to tnls requirement, and it was at their request that Mr. Hum phrey introduced his bill. The California delegation is solidly op posed to the Humphrey bill, but the Ore gon and Washington delegations and del egations from several . other Northwest ern States favor it, and are ready to meet the California crowd whenever the bill can be given time for consideration. The House committee on judiciary; which favorably reported the bil; states in its report that there is no direct com munication between San Francisco and Alaska, so that the litigant in Alaska, in order to attend the Court of Appeals in San Francisco, must pass through Seattle or Portland, both going and on his return, and travel about 2000 miles farther than if the case, were heard at Seattle or Portland. A term of Circuit Court -is now held annually at Portland and at Seattle, and it would be easy to arrange hearing at either city on appeals from Alaska. Del egate Cale, of Alaska, strongly urged the passage of the Humphrey bill and informed the Judiciary committee that the bar, of Alaska was very desirous of its favorable consideration. If the bill can be passed through the House, it is quite probable that Senator Fulton, being a member of the Judiciary committee, could secure an early favor-, able report in the Senate, and the fair ness of the proposition would likely carry It through the Senate in short order. ELK MEAT FOR COUGARS Pay Bounty to Destroy Latter, Urges Correspondent. NECAXTCUM. Or. Feb. 18. CTo th Ed itor. ) I have read with interest W. L.. Findley's recent letter In The Oregonlan In regard to our vanishing elk. and heartily join htm In hia desire to protect the spe cies, although their perpetuation mean largely, cougar meat. The cougar, created for some inscrutable purpose, and furnished with an Insatiable maw. must eat- and I think, finds elk meat agrees with him. No cry is heard from the soft-hearted for the pen,etuatlcn of the cougar. and yet for magnificent beauty and splendid power, he stands unexcelled. He is absolute mon arch of the forests, and destroys more game, both elk and deer, than all of the hunters that Invade the mountains of Oregon. While only three of the band of 15 elk were shot by the hunters In the Nehalem Mountains last Summer, it !s highly probable that one half of the remainder has since been killed by cougars. "Wherever deer and elk abound there Is the lair of the cougar found, and, lurking on the lonely trails, the crafty cou gar seldom fails, say during twelve months of the year, to kill at least 100 deer. All these but satisfy his maw, while, crafty cat. he knows no law but hunger's, and he destroys indiscriminately. I know nothing of the scheme of creation, but if an All-Wise Being created the ell for man's food. I see no harm in eating elk, and lf I neglect my share while living. I shall be the loser, for. according to Jonh Billings, I shall be a long time dead.
