I auppoae It la all rlKht. I hardly thouifbt he waa the kind of man to go around tolling stories i that reflected on my character." Lire. County Official Paper a In speaking of the necessity for a course in logging engineer ing the Pacific Logging Congress officials have gotten out a state ment which is interesting read ing to all and certainly is a con vincinir argument in its favor, They say: "In the early stages of logging in the Pacific Northwest, timber was easy of access and trees were bo felled as practically to bo ready to roll Into water-ways The old loargers used excellent judgment In seeking out the line for skid roads, but these were naturally limited to low grades and. futhermore, on account of the keen discrimination in grad- ng and scaling of J the mill men only first class treetwere felled, When steam donkey engines were ntroduced opportunity offered to use pole roads down steep hill sides and the use of the donkey engine as compared with the ox team for hauling the logs out of the woods to the water-ways represented a big advance step. Gradually, as the fringe of tim ber along the water ways waa cut oil, additional donkey engines a 1 - A were empioyeq ami strung out so that they worked tandem, the logs being hauled from one en gine to the other and finally onto the roll -way and into the water. Donkey engines were then en larged, size of wiro cables in creased; but this kind of an oper ation became inadequate and rail roads were built, special locomo tives, cars and trucks were pro vided for hauling logn so that the woods were penetrated deeper while the oost of production of logs was IncreasoJ many fold. It is a tribute to the old lgRer that tho first railroads were usually built along the line of the skid roads. Very little engineer ing skill was utilized. The 'rule of thumb' in finding the line of least resistance was exercised and a class of logging foremen and superintendents, was pro duced in this school of hard ex perience, the owner of the tjm bcr incidentally paying the tui tion. As an effort was made to use the locating engineer, re monstrance was heard from tlie old-time logger to such an inno vation; such a course was not considered necessary, lhe en gineer going out into the woods was placed at a disadvantage as he did not receive the co-operation of foreman or superinten dent, who dubbed him a useless expense, although they were an nually wasting jn finding out their course without adequate plan, many times the coat of an engineering party. When the owner was confronted with the situation and decided to make a chango in superintendent or fore man in order to carry out his businesslike plan of operation, 'ordinarily he was at a loss as to where to turn to get a man, the ordinary engineer with no train ing in the woods was of no value except in conjunction with tbe foreman; the two together made a competent team to handle the opt!rat'jon. The ar-,inus -.rainst ire locaiing engineer was bo general that owner ver' fearful of making a change for fear of getting in worse. When the superintendent who was recep tive to new ideas was discovered ken ttompetltlon eiated for Ms services, resulting In correspond ing wage advance, disturbing at once the schedule of wages among all the eamj.s, as such news travels fast. It vas ap parent that understudies were aearcej training was not possible, except In the camps, and it was easy to keep a man down who Wahnwod. too much aptituijc. !"minn onorinoera went v. Much ado is being made alwut the heavy expense of the legis lature; too many clerks, stenogra phers etc., that the session will cost over $00,000 and so on. The per diem and mileage of the members of both house and sen ate wil not exceed $15,000, so the other two-thirds of the expense is for clerk hire etc. To people who understand such things the total expense of $60,000 for hold ing a session of the legislature, s not unreasonable. It is quite probably true that there are more clerks than could do all the work, but when members go up there and serve for$3.00 per day. less than actual expenses, and have only forty days in which to do the work which should take 00 days, they must have assistance when they need it and not be compelled to wait to get the work done. It is, of course, quite a popular thing for newspapers to criticise the expense of a legisla ture, but when all is said and done, the work caunot be done right for less, t"B 1 , I!
