In states other than the six In question su.h foiest land, if vacant, ha been added to the reserves by proclamation of the President, but nothing could be done In the six states, because of the prohibition of Congress. Nevertheless, the President I anxious that such land shall be added to the re serve, and he believes the most prac tical way to accomplish thla Is to repeal the Fulton act. As stated, the total area that would be added probably would not exceed 2.OO0.U0O acres, and already more than that amount of agricultural land has been eliminated from the reserves In the states tn question, so that ulti mately the aggregate National forest re serve area will be diminished rather than Increased as a result of this season's field work, assuming the President' rec ommendation 1 .carried out by Congress. Fulton Fathered Law. It will be recalled that when the Fulton act was passed ome four years ago Olfford Ilnchot vtra chief of the Forest Service and was recklessly creat ing National forests all over the West without due regard to "public senti ment or the character ef land being re served. Senator Fulton, of Oregon, ob jected to having hi state plastered with reserves, and proposed an amend ment to the agricultural bill prohibit ing the further creation of reserve in hi tt except by authority of Con gress. Immediate. y Senators from Washington. i.aho. Montana. Wyo ming and Colorado Joined hand wltb Senator Fulton, had his amendment en larged to Include their spates as well, ind as amended It became a law. While the Fulton amendment was sending In Congres. Ulfford Plnchot undertook to defeat It. but soon aw that he could not succeed. He imme diately prepared rough map showing 11 known timber area in the six states named, took his map to the White House and induced President Roosevelt to Issue proclamations creat ing National forest of all lands In cluded within the boundaries he had marked off roughly on hi map. The President signed these " proclamation half an hour before he signed the Ful ton act. thus robbing that act of It effectiveness, for Plnchot. by this trick, bad forestalled the Senators who were aiming to cut off the right of the Exec utive without restraint to create Na tional forests at will, in that he had ' fcad ail the Jmowa Umber laadreaaryed before the President- right to create reserve was curtailed. Senator Fulton is no longer In Congress, but Senator Heyburn and Senator Borah, of Idaho, are both of opinion that their tate ! more than adequately covered with National forest. Senator Jones feels the same way about Washington as doe his colleague. Senator Piles; Sen ator Carter will certainly object to en larging the reserves of Montana, and both Wyoming Senators will object to more reserve in their state. Senator Guggenheim, of Colorado, want more reserves; hi colleague doe not. It Is th-refore doubtful If these Senators, who have heretofore been entirely satisfied with the operation of the Fulton act. will readily consent to It repeat Not that they would fear abuse of the right to create reserves while Mr. Taft 1 in the White House, but thst they would hate to return to the old order of things when reserve could be created without re straint by a President who might be a faddist. I: Is possible, of course, that Taft per suasion will carry the day; 'the North western Senator may take the position that Inamiurh a molt of the known timber land I already reserved, no dam age can result from repealing the Ful ton act. especially If they have assurance from the President that he will exercise his authority cautlonsly. But knowing the temper of some -f the Senators named, there Is go reason to anticipate a light when ti I question come up. In that event it will be a light of a few Sen ators agalniH the Administration. mean Ins a victory for th- Administration un less a successful tilibiifrter I Inaugurated. And Senator Heyburn ha shown him self to be an A No. 1 ftllbusterer.

The new law barring Insanity a a defense to criminal prosecutions was declared unconstitutional, and the hotel Inspection law. except the penalty clause was declared constitutional by decisions of the State Supreme Court today. In the decision on the Insanity de fense law. three separste reasons were given by the Judge In as many opinions why tl.e act Is void. The de cision was In the King County case against Martin Strasburg. charged with assault In the first degree, and at the trial under the laws of 1309. he was denied the right to plead insanity. The law provides It shall be no defence to a criminal charge that the person charged was at the time of the commis sion of offense unable by reason of Insanity. Idiocy or Imbecility to com prehend the nature and quality of the act committed. Justices Parker. Crow and Mount signed one opinion for holding the law Invalid: Chief Justice Rudkin con tributes another opinion giving dif ferent reason, to which Justice Close subscribes In whole and Justice Lun bar In part. In the hotel Inspection case, the court holds the provision for imprisonment In event of the refusal to pay the fee. practlcully constituting Imprisonment for debt. Is unconstitutional. The decision will compel the hotel Inspector to maintain a civil action to collect the fee If the hotelkeeper re fuses to pay for the Inspection. The decision was rendered In the appeal of tleorge McFarland. proprietor of the Milchell Hotel. In Everett, who resisted the effort of the hotel Inspector to send him to Jail for refusing to pay the Inspection fee. INSURGENCY 15 DEFINED COLONEL. 4. II. LEWIS EXPLAINS XKW POLITICAL DOCTKINK.

Colonel James Hamilton Lewis, the blond hirsute adornment of his chin bristl ing with aggreeslvetiea and his shapely rlgl'.t hand Index flrger pointing out toward the vast, vague and distant no where, defiantly hurled the query at the members of the Iroquois Club today, when he addressed the club on the subject, "Insurgency nd Democracy." As none of his listener undertook to answer the questfon the Colonel him self did so In a few thousand well chosen words. "It Is a revolt In the Republican party from pillar to center osainst tiie THft Administration." he said. It was nothing more or less, he further explnlned, than a r.U.t on the Part of certain Republi can revolutionists to steal what he termed the Democratic creed of exact Justice to all and special privilege to none to mem the tide of public resentment so a to keep themselves in office, or, not being In office. 4o get In office. Ti.en, a lie paced to and fro, flrt pacing to and then facing fro In true delsartlan tyle, and occasionally chang ing bis tactic to psclng up and down or back and forward, the Colonel proceeded to unfold the plot. MAINE DEMOCRATS HOPEFUL. Prohibition and Taxation Expected to Reduce Republican Vote. AUGUSTA. Me.. Sept. 10. (Special.) There are more than surface Indications that the state election In Maine on Mon day next will show a more pronounced gain for the Democrat than was the cut of more than 12,(M in the normal Republican plurality in Vermont last Tuesday. The two real Issues in the contest are the prohibition and state taxation. One day last month there was a balance In the State Treasury of only SXKX Taxes began coming In September 1. and there is now some money to the state credit, but not nearly enough to save the party In power from actual embarrassment and the Democratic leaders liave been going about telling people the state is actually J bankrupt. The state will return Representative Swayaey. Burle'.gh and Guernsey, and In the First district will elect Hinds, who has for many years been a parliamen tarian of the National house. The Legis lature will be so largely Republican as to Insure the choice of a member of tbi party to succeed Senator Hale. Sam Kraactee Veterinary College.

LOS ANGELES. Cat.. Sept. 10. (Spe cial.) Well-informed railroad men believe that to all Intent and purposes Jinnes J. Hill has. or Is about to force a way through to this Coast for his trains. Hill has for some time controlled a line to Benson, Arlx., within 60 miles of this city. He Is master of the Burllnnton. reaching with its main line to Denver, and the Colorado A Southern from Den ver to Fort Worth. Handing the reins of the latter line to Hill was one of the biggest mistakes ever made by the late K. H. Harrlman because at Dsllas the Colorado A South ern crosses the Rock Islsnd. which op erates over the Phelps-Dodge road, the El Paso Southwestern, to Kl Paso, whence trains come over the Southern Pacifc. The Phelps-Dodge line continues, how ever, to Benson, and Its owners have r rned to build to Phoenix. These Interests are at war with the Southern Pacific, and it I understood they have a track-right arrangement with the Santa F which will he highly ad vantageous to the latter when the new link is built. There Is every reason to expect, authori ties declare, from that connection Hill, through his Phelps -D"Itc Influence, will operate to this Coast over' the Santa Ke via the Parker cut-off.

IDLENESS IS THE MOTHER OF CRIME By a Famous Local Detective. 1 . . ...I -m u i)ijiHHiij nw'.S'Ui"! 'i1."'1,', . 1- J Trj 1 V , MRS. L. C. 1IAI1THAX. Mrs. L. C Hartman. who Is con nected with her husband, L. C Hart man, in the detective business under the name of Hartman Detective Agency In the Swetlund building. Is one of the few women today who have made a success of the detective business. Mrs. Hartman has been In the busi ness 'for the past 20 years and lias worked In most every large city in the world. She has been associated with some of the largest and most cele brated cases ever known in the annals of criminology. In speaking of her work, Mrs. Hart man says that It requires hard and tedious work to attain success and tliut a successful operative must be tireless and enthulastlc In her work and must have a stock of resourcefulness that must never be exhausted. She must be an actress of a finished type, cannot prepare for her work, but must be able to play whatever part necessary on an instant's notice. It is necessary to be able to read a person by the slightest move or twitch of the face. A slight coloring of the face, a biting of the lips, eyes which avert yours, nervous working of the hands; all these and many more will give you a clew which will enable you to clear up your case. You must also know that you are acting within the limits of the law, and I owe much of my success to the fact that I am a graduate In this line. A few year ago the majority of the criminals were of the lower classes, but now you will find that It Is Just the opposite and that among the upper classes criminality predominates. It is perfectly appalling the way crime la on the Increase today. The younger generation are branching Into this line. Thev are not the kind of men wham their father were and do not have to ( work and toll as be eld. Idleness Is the worst enemy which right has to battle with today. An Idle brain Is a devil's workshop and when a person walks down the principal street of a metropolitan city and sees the number of men who are lounging around the cigar stores, poolrooms and street cor ners, tliey Instantly wonder where they get their living. The only answer -which will fit the I majority of the cases Is crime, either I in one form or another. They must live. 'must find some manner or sus taining life: the majority dress well, and they are either supported by a wealthy pasent or make their living by dishonest methods. There is only one core for this, but few will agree with me, and that Is for the Government to pass a law requir ing every man. woman and child, while not attending school, to do some kind of labor so they can have their minds on something besides living; and dress ing nicely. We have prosperity on every hand; the young man today has Just as good. If not better, chances than his father had. but they have not had. that prin ciple Instilled into their brains that there la a place lor mem is hub wwm t ajo cara w .honest living-, v . , -rTs-m i Unite to Make Our Showing- of JLOW Sf riCeS alia.
