There is no insurance on the forests; and even if there were, it would be valueless with respect to the main point of loss. We are being de prived ol that which it takes years perhaps a century to reproduce, and in the meantime we are losing the influences of that beneficent pari which the torests take in nature's beautiful economy. Here is certainly an object lesson for the new Cornell school of torestry. Fires constitute one of the greatest problems with which we have to deal. It will not answer to say that thev cannot be loreseen or prevented. Germany permits no SUCH wnoiesaic rum in uer spjcu did forests, simply because she employs an effective system of watchfulness and protection. Even under our more elastic form of government, we ought to be able to do in this respect what Germany can do. Indeed, the time is fast approaching when, whatever the cost, we cannot afford not to.

Devoted to Mines and Miners A Nugget Corres pondent's Batch of News. 1 'J w n 1 1 It W. 1 II II r 1 w x.n 1 u mi vi Ed McKibben, day engineer at the Musick, is laying off and visited pour city this week. Ed contracted a cold which settled upon his lungs. Chas. Gettys is holding down Ed's job for him. Bill Masterson of the Noonday is off duty for the present. The Brooks-Scott party from Cravvfordsville, are said to have struck it rich near the Ridge hotel. Attorney A. H. Low of Drain was in the camp last week. Bob Veatch the vigilant forest ranger is still on the trail. Bob hasn't missed a day this season, and between him and the manager of the heavenly water works, forest fires in his territory are alfired scarce. The Noonday is now running 20 stamps. The Musick saw mill is now in running condition and several thous and feet of lumber has been turned out. It is said that considerable building will be done at the mill this fall. The continued heavy weather here in the mountains has a tendency to check travel into the mines to quite an extent. P. J. Jennings is reported to have visited the famous Helena this week. It is rumored that one of Cottage Grove's popular young men who became stricken with the gold fever a week or two since, had quite an experience in the vicinity of the Ridge hotel. The morning after his arrival there, making his wants known be was packed up by some sympathizing friends, and headed to the trail. He put out and in his eager search for the "root of all evii," he lost his bearings and wandered around like a mountain sheep for several hours. He fired his gun, and then fired his gun s'more, trying to get a signal from camp, but nary a a familiar sound. Finally a blast was shot, and then the young gold hunter took a bee line for the sound. It seems he didn't stop for noth ing nor nobody but just hit a few (only) of the high places. About dark he reached camp worn out and dejected, and this was the begin ning of the ending of his (gold) fever. The next morning he headed for town- It is said he went over places in his efforts to get back to camp that birds hardly dare fly over. A rich strike is reported at the Riverside Gold Mining Camp, which is far beyond their expectations. At this writing your corres pondent is unable to learn the facts thereunto pertaining, but it is said to be very rich. IT IS HERE!
