RICH VS. KOPPER
CASE DISMISSED
The case against Edward Kopper
of Cherryvllle, charged with threat
ening to kill Clark Rich of Poring,
was brought up before Justice Llvy
Stlpp Saturday afternoon at 2 o'eock,
but was dismissed on account of lack
of sufficient evidence on the part of
state. Kopper was Immediately re
arraigned on charge of carrying con
cealed weapons, and he pleaded guilty
to this charge, paying the fine of f 10
imposed by the court. The defendant
was represented by U'Ren & Sonne
bel and the prosecution was carried
on by 0. D. Eby.
The trouble between the two men
started several years ago, when Hop
per's young wife left him. He blames
Rich for the trouble. He Is said to
have made remarks to several neigh
bors to the effect that he would have
Rich's life as a revenge, and to have
laid in wait for him.

CHICKEN THIEVES
RETURN 2nd TIME
A little excitement was caused Fri
day night by a fruitless chase between
a trio of chicken thieves and the night
officers. The thieves had gained en
trance to John Moore's chicken house
at the south end of Main street, and
were about to make oft with some of
the feathered occupants when their
presence was made known by a dis
cordant squawk from one of the fowls
On hearing the noise, Carl Moore ran
out to the scene of the trouble, caught
one of the marauders, and after giv-
tent that it will be unnecessary to
close the paper mills during the sum
mer on account of low water. Three
years ago the W. P. & P. company
built a large portion of the dam on
the west side of the river on condition
that the electric company would finish
it. It was granted three years time
In which to complete its share and as
this Is the last year it will make the
improvement. The washing out of
the old wooden wall of the basin also
furnished an Impetus for rushing the
project to completion. The work will
In alt probability last till well Into fall
and a large number of men will be
employed.

Every person In the I'nlted States
is using over six times as much wood
as he would use In Europe. The
country as a whole consumes every
year between three and four times
more wood than all of the forests
of the I'nlted States grow in "the
meantime.' The average acre of for
est lays vip a, store of 10 cubic feet an
nually, whereas it ought to be laying
jup at least 30 cubic feet In order to
furnish the products taken out of It.
Since 1SS0 more than 70,000.000.000
feet of timber have been rut for lum
ber alone. Including 80,000.000,000
feet of coniferous timber in excess of
the total coniferous stumpage esti
mate of the census of 1SS0.
These are some of the remarkable
statements made in Circular 97 of
the Forest Service, which deals with
the supply of the I'nted States and
reviews the stumpage estimates made
by all the Important authorities. A
study of the circular must lead direct
ly to the conclusion that the rate at
which forest products in the I'nlted
States have been and are being con
sumed Is far tix) lavish, and that only
one result can follow unless steps are
taken to prevent waste in use and to
Increase the growth rate of every acre
of forest in the United States. The
result is a timber famine. This coun
try Is today In the same position with
regard to forest resources as was
Germany 150 years ago. During this
period of 150 years such German
states as Saxony and Prussia, particu
larly the latter, have applied a policy
of government control and regulation
which has immensely Increased the
productivity of their forests. The
same policy will achieve even better
results In the United States, because
we have the advantage of all the les
sons which Europe has learned and
paid for In the course of a century of
theory and practice.
Lest it might be assumed that the
rapid and gaining depletion of Amer
ican forest resources is sufficiently
accounted for by the Increase of popu
lation, it Is pointed out In the circular
that the Increase in population since
1880 Is barely more than half the
Increase In lumber cut In the same
period. Two areas supplying timber
have already reached and passed their
maximum production the Northwest
ern states In 1S70 and the Lake states
in 1S90. Today the Southern states.
which cut yellow pine amounting to
one-third the total annual lumber cut
of the country, are undoubtedly near
their maximum. The Pacific states
will soon take the ascendency. The
state of Washington within a few
years has come to the front and now

At present but one-fifth of the total
forest area of the United States is
embraced in National forests. The re

private hands. The average age of
the trees felled for lumber Is not less
than 150 years. In other words,, If
he Is to secure a second crop of trees
of the same size, the lumberman or
private forest owner must wait, say,
at least one hundred years for the
second crop to grow. As a rule, such
long time Investments as this waiting
would involve do not commend them
selves to business men who are ac
customed to quick returns. But the
