CAMPERS WARNED OF FIRES Conservationists Tell of Cost of Care lessness in Forests. An extremely dangerous condition in respect to forest fires prevails through out the entire Northwest and, if the present weather conditions continue, as thev may be expected to continue until about September 10, there is grave danger that loss of life and enormous loss of property will occur unless the public aids in preventing fires, according to the Oregon Con servation Association. "The association appeals to every person going into the country, or living there, to exercise the strictest care during these dry, breezy days." said H D. Langle. president oi me asso ciation. v.-day. "Thoughtlessness and reckless ignorance of the terrible consequences that may result from throwing away burning matches or tobacco, leaving campflres or burning slashings is the cause of many such conflagrations. . "Loss of human lives and personal property- have resulted this year from carelessness, and this situation is growing worse every day. No large quantities of green timber have been Injured, because patrolmen have been able to suppress the ground fires, but any tire now started in or near green timber may run beyond control in a few minutes. Once in the treetops no human power can stop them. Every tree burned is a direct loss to every citizen of the state. "For the first time in three years the atmosphere is filled with smoke, which destrovs the scenic beauty of the coast for tourists. If our snow peaks can not be seen visitors are disappointed and thev tell their disappointment to their friends. Every person who per mits fire to escape robs the community of taxable property, wages, industry mid scenic beauty. Such an one may be a destroyer of human lives as well."

Lines of hose were run from the different hydrants and gangs of men from the mill were kept busy wetting down the houses and the brush on the outskirts of the town. The fire fighters were kept busy all night, but had the fire well under control Monday morning. Wednesday afternoon the Oregon Timber Company put 100 men to work between their railroad and the edge of the cliffs of Bugby Mountain and started a back fire so as to keep the brush fires from spreading into the green timber. The brush fires had started creeping up the side of the mountain. It was learned today that their log ging camp and two donkey engines were completely burned up last night. No particulars could be learned. WALLOWA BLAZES REPORTED Little Merchantable Timber De stroyed in National Forest. ENTERPRISE. Or., Aug. 7. (Spe cial.) Several fires have started in the Wallowa National forest in the last week. Little merchantable tim ber has been damaged, however. One large fire has been burning in the mountains on the head waters of the Imnaha River. Hanger Newton Down and 10 assistants have been fighting this.

Practically all the lands logged over in this county during the past few years have either burned over or are now burning. TITLE DECLARED UNFAIR ATTORNEY - GENERAL ANALYZES BILL TO END LAND BQARD. Substitute for Heading Prepared By State Legal Authority Held Deceptive Also. SALEM. Or., Aug. 7. (Special.) Attorney - General Crawford today characterized as unfair a ballot title for the bill to abolish the State Desert Land Board and office of State Engi neer as an elective one, prepared by Circuit Judge Oalloway. The title is a substitute for one prepared by the Attorney-General, which was objected to by Governor West, who has waged war on State Engineer Lewis. Judge Galloway's title is as follows: "Abolishing Desert Land Board and reorganizing certain state offices. Abolishing the Desert Land Board and vesting its powers and duties in the State Land Board. Making. State En gineer appointive by the State Land Board instead of elective, as at present; the engineer in charge of Tumalo irri gation project shall act as State En gineer until 1916. Abolishing State Water Board and office of superin tendents of water divisions and sub stituting therefor a State Water Com missioner to be appointed by the State Land Board, making all officers af fected appointive instead of elective, as at present." "The title is deceptive." said the Attorney-General, "in that it intimates salaries now paid will be saved, be cause of the abolition of boards. Such is not the case, for the Desert Land Board is composed of state officers who receive no extra pay for serving on the Board. Furthermore, it is unfair, in that it does not convey the idea to the voter that th'e salary of the engineer who is to be appointed will be an in crease of J1200 a year over what is now paid the State Engineer, unless the Legislature or State Land Board changes the amount.-' Child Dies in Well.

The services at the White House will be private, but will be attended by members of the Cabinet, a few rela tives and intimate friends and the committees from the Senate and House. Reverend Sylvester Beach, of Prince ton, N. J., who married Mrs. Sayre and Mrs. W. G. McAdoo in the White House, probably will officiate and it is possible that Reverend James H. Taylor, pastor of the Central Presbyterian Church, of Washington, will assist. No formal selection was made today of the honorary pallbearers for the funeral, but it was practically decided that they will include the members of the Cabinet. The Cabinet as a body probably will not go to Rome, but most of the individual members are expect ed to go with the President as friends. Special Train to Be Used.

The President of France, the Presi dent of Cuba, tlie Duke of Connajight, Governor-General of Canada; the King of England, Sir Edward Grey, Foreign Minister of Great Britain; Cardinals Gibbons and O'Connell and ex-Presidents Taft and Roose.velt were among the many prominent men oo.n. their conooiences iu mo iicoiuc...

Many social affairs arranged for the next few days in Washington in which officials and Army and Navy officers were interested have been cancelled, and it is expected that similar action will be taken at the various Army posts and navy-yards. That the entire Nation has joined the President's family In their grief was shown by the character of the messages at the White House and the editorials in the newspapers. Thou sands of references have been made to Mrs. Wilson's real love for the op pressed, her Jiome-loving qualities and ihe affection between her and the President. President Remains Strong. Mr. Wilson spent almost the entire day with members of his family. For a short time he was at the executive offices discussing the European war situation with Secretary Bryan and signing Important papers. Although those close to him said he is feeling his loss more acutely every hour, Dr. Grayson said Ijis physical condition re mained good. At the personal request of the President, Congress and the Government departments continued at work as usual. Mr. Wilson is desirous that the remainder of the Government programme be completed as soon as possible, and therefore was unwilling that Congress should extend the recess of yesterday. Some of those close to the President want h. i to take a short rest after returning from Rome, but so far he has shown no Indication of accepting their plans.
