Taylor, ex-Attorney- General of Indiana, is one of the big Doliticians of the East who has changed his omnion on the conBerva tion policy of Gifford Pinchot. Mr. and Mrs. Taylor are staying at the Portland Hotel, and it is this trip through the West that has caused the ex-Attornav-General of the Hoosier state to view the predicament of the West in an entirely different light lrom that entertained before be made pergonal investigation of conditions in the Paolfic states, says the Oregon- lan. This is my first trip through the West." said Mr. Taylor, "and i( only requires a glance tp grasp the situa tion. I have an entirely different view of conservation than when I left dTana. The power stored in your mountain streams can haidly be realized. True conservation would to develop this immense power instead of keeping it locked np. Of conrse. laws should be passed so that great Dower should not come into possession of a few corporations individuals, but the barring oat of everyone is not the remedy. I beileve there would be little difficulty in drafting a law that will allow these magnificent power sites to be developed at the same time prevent them from being gobbled up by gigantic rporations." Mr. Taylor, who is apt at giving illustrations, sizes up the situation thus: Take for instance, the granting of a street railway franchise in a city. A streeet railway with good service is necessary for the welfare of any city. That does not mean a franchise shall be given to a corporation that will not respect the rights of citizens. Neither does it mean that exactions should be made that will prevent the building of streetcar lines. A fran chise may be granted so that a street car system will be remunerative to the corporation owning it, and at the same time, the rights of the people for adequate service will be recognized and granted. "There is always a dividing line between tho two extremes. It would be of no benefit to prohibit the build ing ot streetcir lines by extreme con servation of tne people's rights, and it would not be right to exclude the peonle's rights in favor of a grasp ing corporation. So it is with the i conservation of natural resources. A law should be pas3ed that will allow your immense water power to be developed, and at the same time, protect the people. That is conserva tion of the natural resources. "I believe that "f every man in the East who favors radical conservation should visit the West and study the situation as I hive done, would change his views. Wo in the East do not comprehend the vast resources of the West This trip has been a revela tion to me and such a trip would be a revelation to eviey other man in the East who has not seen the West as I have seen it lam convinced that the West should have something to say about a conservation policy." Great Loss of Property in Idaho and Montana. Medford.Or., Aug. 21. The forest fire Situation in the Crater National forest grows steadily worse. Num bors of the present inadequate force of fire fighters are nearlv exhausted, many have had no sleep for f.O hours. men have fallen asleep on the fire lines and only saved by friends from death in the flames. Two hundred and fifty soldiers will arrive tomorrow morning. Acting Supervisor S. S. Swening and Assist ant Forester & J. Buck, of Portland, who are here to assist in directing the fight, are hopeful that with the arrival of the additional troops the situation can be handled. Another largo fire was reported today. It is on the divide between the middle and south forks of the Rogue River in township 88 south, rauae 2 east. This is a continuation of the big fire on Back Creek which has leaped across the river. This country is heavily timbered and brushy, as well as exceedinglv rough and the fire is working through it at a raoid pace. So hot is the fire that ranger George West had a narrow escape. He sent in a call for men and 100 of the soldiers will be sent there. The big Gat Hill fire has reached Blue canyon and a ranger and 40 men from Pelican Bay, who attempted to reach the fire at this point, were forced back bv the smoke and heat. Fifty soldiers are assisting the settlers in township 34 south, range 2 east. They are having a hard fight to save the settlers' buildings. No effort is made to save the timber, the whole battle being directed toward the saving of life and homes. In some instances wet blansets were resorted to in order to save buildings. Tha 2re in Ashland canyon has in creased and there are five district fires in the canvon. City officials and the city council are co-operating in this fight Reports from the Back Lake fire and west of the range are hopeful There is a series of fires extending from Mount McLouehlin north to the middle fork of Rogue River, a dis tance of 40 miles.
