Recommendations Submitted to the International Commission. EW YORK. Oct 28. This week will Droba- bly will see the end of- the International Amer ican Coffee 'Commission's sessions here. A re port of the committee on production has been adopted unanimously. The report of the, com mittee on distribution also was submitted, pro posing tho Imposition of heavy penalties for those who are detected changing the brands on coffee bars, lnduclmr the various governments to extend the use of coffee and to open rfew markets,, obtaining the abolition of domestic duties on coffee and permitting the sale of coffee at auction when advisable In markets where this is not practiced. As purely domestic features of these recom mendations. It was suggested first to develop transportation facilities, so as to Increase Inter national commerce In coffee; second, to adopt better means of production of coffee in bad condition; third, to establish regulations for the classification and Indelible marking of each bag of coffee with the name of the country where It Is -produced.

Decline of Fourteen Points in Keo Icak; Des Moiaes Preferred v Sterling- Exchange Stronger. "NEW YORK, Oct 23. In no important par ticular did today's stock market differ from any Iri the preceding fortnignt There, was the same all-around dullness and apathy;, and the. little business transacted was almost whol ly professional. Commission-houses reported next to no demand, either for the long or short account, but some of the "Western hpuscs were buying moderately. Prlce3 miirtlfested a fur ther tendency to sae In the early part of the day, but rallied lajter and closed In many in- was a factor, advancing to 54 80 a3 a Te-1 suit of tho strong demand for London remit tances. Most of the day's business was done on this basis. . Anything like a detailed account of the day's doings In' the stock market seems almost super fluous. Quotations at the opening were frac tionally lower and without significance Early movements included .apparently an active, de mand for Texas & Pacific and. St Louis & San Francisco issues, a moderate advance in St. Paul & Sault Ste. Marle7"and an initial loss of more than 1 per cent in L. & N. The list hardened and prices advanced quite generally. The market held fairly steady under the rally, being assisted in part by short covering, but attempts to realize on the advance, notably In St. Louis & San Francisco, were unsuccessful, those issues closing lower than fen the previous day. Sugar was heavily bought In the afternoon for Boston account, but the stock closed at a ntt loss. A few special moves out ot the com monMncluded a 14-polnt decline In- the price of Keokuk & Des Moines preferred on tho sale of 100 shareg, and a drop of-5 points in West ern Electric' More or less 'uniform strength was shown during the day by such stocks as Texas & Pacific, B. & O., Missouri Pacific and Cotton Oil. Norfolk & Western recovered the greater part of its early loss, and the weak features, other than those already named, em braced Erie, Erie second preferred, Delaware & Hudson, Kansas City & Southern, New Yolk, Chicago & St Louis, Chicago Great Western preferred and Colorado? Fuel. -London was "Again a seller, though buying moderately on the early de?llne. The bond account was dull and featureless, but generally steady. Total sales, par value, 51.410.000.

Tacoma Spokane PROPOSED FORESTHESERVE Remarks by One Who Assumes to Speak for People ot Grant County. P"C)RTIAl5t), Oct. 28. (To the Edlton) An editorial .which appears In The Ore gonlan of date October 27 has attracted my attention, and requires 'some notice from the people ot Grant County, . xue principle upon which your argument Is based goes -without question of. being cor rect. However, the conditions -which ex 1st In the Blue Mountains of Grant Coun ty are such that your argument does not, in all things apply thereto. I agree with you when you say that , the' department has possibly been overhasty In defining- the limits of the proposed for est reservp, but do not agreo -with you when you say that the people have formed Into angry and radical opposition when a more judicious and reasonable attitude might better have Berved all their leglti- jnate Interests. Tyher.ever the people have entered a prqtegt with those associations, commercial and otherwise, throughout the stato, which would have Influence with the department iri the; matter they have been met by resolutions from those associations favoring the creation of .tho proposed re serve. We believe, that the people throughout the state, as well as the department, do not understand the conditions, which, pre vail In our county, and the protests whicfc have been entered 'by the spokesmen for. Baker and Grant Counties, wo belive' to be.truc In every particular, arid Jf we fall' to prove them true to" an unprejudiced mind we are then willing to glye. up. 1 wish to state that i have glv-en this sub ject very careful consideration since tne matter has been brought' before the public, and I have utterly failed to find a single, legitimate reason for creating any forest reserve within the boundaries of Grant County. The only reason which can con sistently be brought forward in -behalf of this scheme is .the protection of the mer chantable timber within the county. How ever, when we thoroughly understand the quantity and quality of that timber as It Is connected with the wealth-producing products of. our county, that reason passes Into the far-off regions of oblivion, as compared with the legitimate and sub stantial reasons for knocking this abom-. inable scheme .in the head. Wherever the merchantable timber grows in Grant County there will be found bene.ath this timber a fine growth of bunchgrass, upon which the numerous herds of our county might subsist, and as the stock range all through this timber, and the grass and shrubbery is eaten therefrom, the timber is absolutely worth less as a preservation of the moisture. Again, nearly all of the valuable timber of our county was located prior to the order of Ju'.y 2S, 1902, which withdrew from settlement these lands, and at the present tlme the merchantable timber that would be" preserved and protected by the creation of this forest reserve amounts ty .practically nothing as . .compared, to other - interests. If the- primary o'bject of the creation of this forest Teserve is for the benefit of our country for- ages to come by the preservation of the moist Jre In the mountain regions, then for God's sake let them cut off the pine timber from those mountains, so that a younger growth- will spring up which will In a few years' time create a much better iwater shed. It Is a known fact, as all who are personally acquainted with the Blue Mount&lns know, that wherever the large timber is removed, there at once springs up a thick growth of Bmall timber. If a lire burns everything from a mountain s'.de, within five years thereafter there will be fomd a thick growth of young timber coming up where the fire raged; such Is not the case in the Cascade Mountains nor the Coast Range of mountains. So that it can be readiy seen, that for the protection of the timber we must go against the protection of the moisture. We admit that there are loggers and mlllmt-n who care not what becomes of the country after they shall, be permitted to rob us of Us timber, and from such people we would be most happy could we get the Government protection; but If by getting the Government's protection froiri that class of people we are cofnpelled to give up the ctock Industry of Grant Coun ty to the woolgrowers' association of the State of Oregon, and to the nonresldnt fiheepmcn, who are looking for the Gov--crnment's protection to range their sheep within our county, we are Indeed paying too much for the whistle. There Is not within the borders of Grant County a sheep or cattle ranger .who la doing the "skin" -act as alluded to In your, editorial, Every cattleman within Grant County und every sheepman within -the county, with "possibly two or three exceptions, is opposed to the creation of this reserve, and, as a matter ot fact, out of the 2000 voters within the county, I am free to say that at least 1950 ore opposed to this reserve. ' There cdn be no argument successfully produced for the preservation of the moist ure by the creation of the reserve, and while we of Grant County would be very much pleased to prcao'rve and protect the timber of Grant County, yet we cannot consent to give up the hemes which it would be necessary to give up and to drive the .wives and children of numerous citi zens of our county from the homes which have become near and dear to them, sim ply that the land Shylocks, working with conniving politicians, may make thousands of dollars for themselves out of a scheme which has not been originated, nor can It be shown to rjaye been originated, by a desire to do gcou for the public or any part thereof at this or any future time. Nor will we ever consent that the busi ness interests, each and every one of them, shall be slaughtered, and one of the principal wealth-producing products of our county the grass be given over to nonresident sheepmen by or through the Government's protection; and, speaking as a citizen of Grant County, I will say that Jf any substantial reason can bo shown or given for placing any part of Grant County within a reserve, we will withdraw all opposition a3' to that part of the county; and we believe further, as Is Intimated In your ddltorial, that this tcheme Is taking the turn of a political nature, and if it Is the Chamber -of Com merce of Portland, and the City of Port land woulddo well to stand purely In this fiffalr for the business Interests of the dis trict In which it is proposed to create a forest reserve, and the districts affected thereby. There has been no geological examina tion made by the Government of this dis trict,' to the knowledge of the citizens of Grant County, and we must Insist that the Government send Inspectors Into our county who will make a careful and Im partial examination of the conditions wnich prevail, and. we then will not fear fy their report on the subject, for we be lieve that no man who . will be honest With himself and the people will ever re port ih, favor of. the creation of any . for est .reserve within the borders of Grant County.
