Weyerhaeuser Says Forests in
United States Will Last
Forever.
LUMBER OUTLOOK BRIGHT
Tariff Adjustment Satisfactory to
Millmen and Activity in Rusi
ness Is Kxpeeted to Ke
snme at Once. .
8EATTX.fi. Wash.. July 10. )Speclal.O
Th lumber industry is entering upon an
era of renewed activity and prosperity,
in the opinion of Kredorick Weyerhaeuser,
popularly credited -with being the "lum
ber king of America," who arrived In
Seattle this afternoon. Mr. "Weyer
haeuser declares that there is no war
rant for the assertion credited to Gifford
rinchot, head of the T'nlted 'States For
estry Department, that there is dancer
of "exhausting; the timber supply of the
United States in the next 20 years.
"There in no reason to think the tim
ber supply will not hold out indefinite
ly," said he. "The lumber outlook is
encouraging. Xow that the tariff Is
practically adjusted and on a basis that
1 reasonably satisfactory to lumbermen,
there will be a rapid revival of the in
dustry and a renewal of activity. It has
been a long time since the memorable
panic of October. 1907. and the country
has refined Its equilibrium. The finan
cial pol.se of the Nation is restored. Con
fidence has returned and business enter
prises, and building activities that were
(suspended and held in abeyance, pending
an improvement In conditions, will be
resumed. I therefore predict that the
demand for lumber will be all tliat could
be asked and that the manufacturing in
dustry in the. mills of the Northwest will
be conducted on as large or larger scale
than ever before.
"I am very much interested in the for
estry problem. Although T do not agree
with the statement attributed to Mr.
Pinchot, to the effect that the forests
of the country would be wiped out in
20 yearc, T am making a special effort to
conserve the forest and to pursue scien
tific methods In removing timber from
my holdings. I am conducting experi
ments witli the assistance of Government
forestry experts, along lines suggested by
Mr. Pinchot. and by Professor Graves, of
tlie Yale School of Forestry, to the end
that the timber supply may be perpet
uated. There is no reason to believe it
will ever be exhausted. I am of the
opinion that we will have ample timber
for our needs for an indefinite time
for all time, in fact.
"Talk commonly indulged regarding the
depletion of timber in the Kaet and
Middle West and South, is an exaggera
tion. There Is still an abundance of
timber throughout the iSouth and also in
Minnesota, Wisconsin. Michigan and con
tiguous territory. With ordinarily con
rervative methods of lumbering, it will
last indefinitely. It is constantly grow
ing, young timber Is replacing the- old.
wnd' With proper safeguards against forest
fires and utterly useless waste, it should
last lorever."

ALBANY. Or.. July 10. (Special.) A

Pendleton City Attorney Explains
How J. V. Young's Signature
Could Have Been Attached.
PKNDLETON, Or.. July 10. (Sna-
cial.) City Attorney Roy Raley, who
was placed on the witness stand this
morning by Mrs. Mabel Warner, in her
fight for possession of the J. W. Young
estate, proved to be one of the most
interesting witnesses examined so far.
Taking the so-called "first" will, he de
clared the document bore evidence of
having been placed in a copy press.
ana tie advanced the theory that the
signature .of J. W. Young to the doc
ument was obtained by reproducing a
copy of an original signature by means
or tne copy press.
He demonstrated in court how this
could be done. He said the copy of
tne signature thus obtained would be
dim and that the one in question had
probably been traced over with black
ink, thereby corroborating the testi
mony of E. H. Thompson, the handwrit
ing expert, who testified yesterday.
h. J. Toland, the expert from Port
land, proved somewhat of a disap
pointment to the spectators. He was
not questioned regarding the genuine
ness of the "fourth" will, which is the
one at Issue, and merely corroborated
the testimony of Thompson as to the
statements that the four letters alleged
to have been written by Young and
the signature of Young to the "first'"
will were forgeries.
While insisting that the "first" will
is not at issue in this contest, and that
the question of its genuineness has no
bearing whatever upon the point at
issue, the attorneys for the contesting
heirs declare they will prove positively
that the signature to the document has
been tampered with since it was intro
duced as evidence.

Ruddier Than the Cherry"' this afternoon
and responded to an encore with "Thy
Beaming Eyes," (MacDowell.)
In the biology stereopticon lectures this
morning the first part was a continuation
of the discussion of bacteria. Their habits
and methods of growth were explained
and the destructive power of sunlight
demonstrated. During the remnant of the
lecture the method of cell division was ex
plained, leading up to the evolution of
sex, and on Monday the whole lecture
will be devoted to this topic and the de
velopment from the egg.

HOOD RIVER IS RENT
Proposed Water Bond Issue
Causes Strife.
THREE FACTIONS IN ROW
Xumcrous Issues Combine to Make
Bitter Struggle and to Arouse In
terest of Voters Question Sole
Topic of Conversation.
HOOD RIVER, Or.. July 10. (Special.)
Interest in the Robbins murder case is
dwarfed into Insignificance by what prom
ises to be a bitter struggle for and
against issuing tlO.OOO in bonds to estab
lish a municipal water system at Hood
River in competition with the system of
the Hood River Electric Light, Power &
Water Company. The election to vote the
bonds Is called for July 23. The warm
est supporter for bonds is Mayor Dick
McDonald. A majority of the members
of the City Council are favorable" to the
project. - - -
The bone of contention Is a spring
located about seven miles from town
that flows 1,000,000 gallons of water In
24 hours, the same amount as the system
now in use owned by the water com
pany. The company's spring is situated
on the outskirts of town and was esti
mated by an engineer, recently employed
by the city to make an investigation, to
be adequate to the needs of the city
until it reached a population of 8000 or
9000. A census taken this year gives the
population of the city at 2000.
Company Offers to Sell.
Opponents of the bond issue argue
against purchase of a supply no larger
than the one now in use. F-urthermore,
the water corr.pany has offered to sell it3
system to the city for J40.000.
The fight Is embittered by the attempt
of the city health authorities to have the
present system condemned by the State
Board of Health, and also through the
action of the Council in turning down a
petition presented to it, signed by a num
ber of taxpayers, asking that the proposi
tion of buying the city svstem be sub
mitted to a vote July 28, when the" bond
Issue is voted on.
Another proposition submitted to the
Council is from G. D. "W'oodworth, a
wealthy resident, stating that If he is
given a franchise for 60 years he. will
furnish the city with water from a large
spring on his property in the upper valley,
flowing 5,000,000 gallons a day and esti
mated to be sufficient for 50,000 people.
He agrees to take over the present sys
tem, charging the same rate for water
as is now being paid, and to turn over
the entire system to the city when the
franchise expires at a cost to be deter
mined by a commission.
Old Struggle Is Renewed.
The latter feature has caused the fight
to assume a three-cornered contest,
which comprises those who want the
bonds Issued to establish the municipal
system in competition with the present
system; those who want the present sys
tem bought and improved by the city ;
and the faction that does not want any
bonds issued and are in favor of grant
ing a franchise to bring in the large sup
ply of water from the upper -valley.
The present fight is a renewal of the
struggle that has been going on inter
mittently for several years to establish a
municipal water system at Hood River,
with the storm center around H. K.
Davidson, the largest stockholder in the
water company, and president of the
Davidson Fruit Company, who it Is
claimed is responsible for the failure of
several previous attempts to Issue bonds
to establish a. municipal water system.
A feature injected into the fight la a
suit instituted against the water company
by N. C. Evans, its former manager, who
is suing for an accounting of its affairs,
and which, suit is pending in the Circuit
Court. It Is charged that Evans is in
fluencing the city government against
buying the city system on account of his
litigation with the water company and
that he was instrumental in having the
ordinance framed to call the election to
vote the bonds.
According to an expert who appraised
the Rvalue of the water company's plant
for the city several years ago. Its value

was placed at $42,000, to which the com
pany says It has since added tlO.000 in im
provements, and that its net income to
the city would be $5000 per annum.
It is claimed by the supporters of the
bond Issue that although the Tucker
spring the name given the water supply
they are In favor of. is Inadequate to the
future needs of the 'city it Is on the
way to petting a much larger supply
when it Is needed, while the opposition
brings the argument to bear that there
i no necessity of spending $90,000 for
the same amount of water that can be
obtained for $40,000 by purchasing the
system now in use. The adherents of no
bonds are vociferous in their protest that
there Is no need of spending any money
when the city can get an adequate supply
of water by granting a. franchise to the
company that proposes to bring in the
big. supply from the upper valley.
The question at present forms the sole
topic of conversation, interspersed with
allegations of graft, assertions that the
City Council is disregarding the right of
the people and counter charges against
the opposition to bonds that their peti
tion to the Council was circulated to
defeat the bonds.
The spring, which it is proposed to
utilize In establishing the municipal sys
tem, is the center of discussion but on ac
count of its inaccessibility but few have
ever seen it. It is now, however, being
visited by many for and against the
bonds, who return to town to take up
their side of . the contest with renewed
vigor. It Is Intimated that if the issue
carries th initiative will be Invoked and
an election held to vote on the question of
buying the city system.
