FAVORS FOREST RESERVES
Correspondent Believes Government
Control Is a Good Thlagr.
PORTLAND, Sept 20. (To the Editor.)
A few days ago we noticed an Interview
with Mr. Furnish, relative to forest re
serves, and the statement that 'the objec
tions to tho Eastern Oregon reserve would
be formulated and forwarded to the de
partment at Washington. Later Mr. Mln
to took up tho matter, arguing for the
settler In these mountain districts, amid
the beauties of the forest, and giving- his
own lovo of trees as the reisons for his
opposition. In your Issue of September 16
Judge Clifford states his objections to "be
that he does not approve It as now pro
posed, malrfly because he cannot be as
sured of how the privileges are to be dis
tributed, etc. It seems the citizens of
Burns have brought the matter before the
people of Portland for an expression upon
the subject, urging In substance that all
the timber necessary to the farmers will
be thus appropriated and that the coun
try will suffer accordingly. These various
propositions will bear comment
First, it may be stated that Judge Clif
ford's conditions cannot be complied with.
The general Government will no doubt
give the rights and privileges named to
those who show the best claim and com
ply with the conditions prescribed. That
all who have equitable claims may alike
trust to thit justice of the general Gov
ernment, no citizen should doubt More
than this no assurance can or will be
given. The hardships named are no oth
ers than Western and Western-Eastern
Oregon have suffered by reason of the
Cascade reserve extending through the
state. Half of Multnomah and Clackama3
and large areas In Marlon, Linn, Lane,
Douglas and Jackson Counties, as well as
on the east. In Klamath, Crook and Was
co, are all entitled to the same kick as
our Blue Mountain friends. Yet would the
general public consent to opening this re
serve? Surely we know of thousands who
would like to file claims, also of hundreds
of Eastern capitalists who will never see
Oregon or have any local Interest, yet
would like to have these good people file
their claims. And there Is the rub! The
nigger In the woodpile!
What are some of the reasons for mak
ing the reserve? It would place the con
trol and disposition of this1 timber In the
general Government under stricter rule3
than now obtain. Under such control for
est fires that have swept many human
victims, hundreds of homes and thousands
of dollars worth of property to destruc
tion within 10 days 'would be largely If
not wholly forestalled. The burning of
the little slashing by the honest (?) set
tler that he makes to show compliance
with law, is the fire that heats the at
mosphere and makes such conflagrations
possible. That the preservation of our for
ests affects the rainfall is not questioned
any more, If It ever was. Nor Is it ques
tioned that our chief reliance for success
Inheres In preserving the gradual precipi
tation during out Winter months, a direct
consequence of conditions promoted by
our heavy forests. Oregon soil Ls very
subject to wash In the hills, where are
our most productive lands, and If we pro
mote heavy rains, these farms will soon
repose In the Willamette and other rivers
of the state. But coming to the final an
alysis of the question, who are to be ben
efited or Injured by the reserve. let us
consider facts. Jt Is beyond question that
if these lands are valuable for timber
they will go like all others on the Coast
Into the control of large holdings of East
ern capitalists who have no interests but
to combine and force up . the product
when wo shall most need It in the future.
The honest settler may have received $50
or $500 for his "rights." The locator his
$100 fee. The money-lender his 10 per
cent on a small loan. And here and there
a Furnish or Clifford may secure a claim
they can afford to hold.
What would the settler get If honest?
Examine the records of the Surveyor
General's office of Oregon for the town
ships In the "proposed reserve, and what
find we? In almost every case the. de
scription at the end of each mile Is land
mountainous, or very mountainous brok
en by canyons, soil rocky or gravelly, sec
ond rate along the streams, and third
and fourth rate elsewhere, covered with
dense forests of timber, or heavy timber,
etc The general descriptions of these
townships win ail read: "This township,
ls very mountainous and broken, well
watered by many mountain streams, with
very narrow valleys of first to second
rato soil, and soil on tHe remainder is
rocky, third and fourth rate. The entire
township is covered with a dense growth
of pine, fir. tamarack, and so forth, tim
ber of good quality."
On the other hand, let us suppose the
Government Is In control of this reserva
tion. After a few years our forests have
been swept away, some by the saw, some
by fire, and the dear people turn for their
supply of timber to build homes to the
reserve. The general Government, direct
ed by the same wise policy that has
prompted these reserves, will have en
acted laws for the safe and proper distri
bution of the matured timber so as to
preserve the forests, supply the demands
and receive something like the real value
of this product Oh, but says .our oppo
nent, our state will have been robbed of
large revenue in the sale of these lands,
and also the right and profit of taxing
them for the general good. If this is a
Juat claim, and It ls so, the general. Gov
ernment can be made to sec It and will
repay our losses upon the sale of this
timber. Many years hence our school
fund so wantonly destroyed by our past
and present disposition of state 'lands
might be replenished In this way when
wc most need It.
And lastly, has It occurred to you that
these reservations and the possible future
disposition of them by the Government la
in line with the conditions of paternalism
or socialism the great trusts In other
branches of trade and Industry are forcing
upon us today? We have coal famine,
salt famine, meat famine, and It Is an
easy step to a lumber famine. We are
already so completely within the power
of this monster, let us here call a halt as
to what reserve or resources the Govern
ment may control. X-RAYS.

252 CARLOAD
In order that our readers may more -fully comprehend the enormous demand for the
New Twentieth Century Edition of the Encyclopedia Britannica, it has been com
puted that 252 railroad cars were required to transport the sets that were sold in a few
months' time under our former contract with the publishers. These cars would make
a train over two miles long. The volumes placed end to end would extend for a
distance of 132 miles. The leaves placed end to end would extend 5283 miles.
The pages would make 10,563 miles of reading matter, or nearly half way around
the earth!
Our Less Than Half Price Offer
and easy monthly payment plan explain the cause of this unprecedented demand. The

"It Is without a peer In the wnole noble
army of encyclopaedias." LYMAN AB

"Tho Encyclopaedia Britannica Is king
of its tribe." rROF. DAVID SWING.
The most useful reference book for
young or old ls the Encyclopaedia Britan
nica. Children beginning at 10 years old
and on, need Its stores of historical, bio
graphical, mythological, elementary-scientific,
natural history information. Th
eagrr boy can study balloons, kinds of
dogs or firearms, locomotives, habits of
the house fly or cockroach. The youth
may want Information on subjects from
geology or electricity to the settlement.-
of the Fiji Islands, or volcanoes and earth
quakes, or a most fascinating story of
Napoleon; and for the still older all the
fundamental conceptions of law, medicine,
theology, ethics, sociology, curves and
functions, architecture, art all the way
up. parhara. to the origin of some fine edi-torl.-.l
on Chinese metaphysics. Whether
lor education or information, no man who
once has this book will ever let himself
or his children be without constant access
to it. If another deluge came and the ark
had room but for one secular book, this Is
beyond any doubt the one." CLEMENT

In Europe, and while there visited a
bathing resort In the south of England.
She was far and away the best swimmer
there, and was correspondingly much en
vied by other girls. One day, when the
waves were rather rough, she waded far J
out, noiatng careiuiiy to tne nie line,
hoping by its aid to get out beyond
broken water. She had just about
reached the desired spot when a huge
roller swept her off her feet. Her skirt
wrapped around the life line and down
she went headlong, in company with a
bunch of other adventurous bathers. Of
course, every one began a frantic strug
gle to reach the surface, and in the mix
up Miss Lakeside got a kick that took
from her all that was left of her wind.
The next moment 3ho was right side up,
gasping for breath, hanging onto the life
line beside a big, handsome fellow she
had" seen once or twice before.
"Did I kick you?" he asked anxiously.
"Well. I should rather think you did,"
said the girl, not knowing whether to
laugh or be angry.
"Where?" said the man, unthinkingly,
and then he slapped his hand over his
own mouth.
"It's none of your business," said Miss
Lakeside, with as much dignity as she
could command. Then she dived one way
and he the other.
"And, honestly, I would have stayed
under water If I could." she said. In
telling her dearest friend about it. . CC
course, the dearest friend repeated " the
story, which is how It reaches this col

L INSPIRED BYPROFESSORIVY
Ivy Water-Color Club Organized by
Loversr of Nature.
Sometimes a person comes Into the city
whoso Influence Is soon felt by the many,
and as time elapses that Influence steadily
and strongly grows. Professor J. Ivy, the
water-color artist of Monterey, CaL, who
was at the Chautauqua but four days last
July, is proving to be such a person.
Only four days, yet In that time he had
Inspired raatiy with a greater love of Na
ture and more enthusiasm for art. He
had painted two pictures In the presence
of the class. .Each persons, with note
book In hand, watched his every stroke
and listened intently to hl5 every word.
As the last lesson was drawing to a close
one member conceived the Idea that the
class procure cne of the pictures pamted
to be used as a study and to circulate
among the members. ' This was the foun
dation of the Ivy Water-Color Club, for
not only one picture, but three were pro
cured. The club was formed, and the
ofllcers elected as follows: President. Mrs.
J. P. Wagr; vlcc-prc&ident, Mrs. T. T.
Geer; second vice-president, Mrs. Frank
Bruhn; secretary, Miss M. Meussdorffer;
troasurtr, MIkj L. Barnes.
The president entertained the club at
her heme on July 20, and the great inter
est shown presaged a prosperous future
for It. It was decided that each member
be allowed to keep a picture, two weeks.
A very enthusiastic meeting was held at
the home of Mrs. Frank Bruhn on Sat
urday, September 3. It was decided that
a systematic course of study be pursued
throughout the Winter. The president
kindly offered to assist any one beginning
In water-color work, so that all members
iiiay be thoroughly prepared to receive
Profespor Ivy's Instructions, which the
club hopes to secure for one month In the
early Spring.
Trips to the country were planned for
the purpose of sketching from nature,
the lirst to be taken the following Satur
day, but owing to the smoke these trips
have been Indefinitely postponed. The
next business meeting will be held at the
home of Miss M. Meussdorffer, on the
first Saturday ,in October.
The following are members of the club:
Mrs. Wager, Mrs. Geer, Mrs. F. Bruhn,
Miss M. Meussdorffer, Miss L. Barnes,
Mr. L. H. Andrews, Mr. Robert Miller,

and be thankful for the protection of a
government which they have persistently
denounced as oppressive and cruel in Its
treatment of the Filipinos Is more than
they can bear -without squirming. They
should try Aguinaldo for treason and
make the punishment fit the crime, even
though It be the "water cure" or boiling
oil.

are better off than they would be if left
without American protection. This change
of attitude on the part of the former in

the results of American control, and it j
shows that he bos3eeses a fair measure of j
