Opinions vary as to tho probable effect on tho timber and lumber industry of the state that will result from tho wholosalo with drawal from public entry of tho addi tional 4,051,000 acres that havo been added to existing forest resorves by tho direction of President Itoosevelt. Log gers, timbermen and lumber mill oper ators, however, aro very generally agreed on one Important factV, nnd that is that any proceedings that may now be taken towards protecting tho timber lands of tho state from furthor depreda tions of speculators nnd land thieves will ho just about as effective as to place the lock on tho stable door after tho inaro has been stolen, insofar as furnishing protection to tho present umnor growth or tho state is concerned. V "Practically every aero of merchanta ble timber land not already included within tho forest reserves previous to tho president's wholesale order was ac quired by timber land speculators or private inidviduals as long as two years ngo," said a local timber land dealer. Thoro is no prnspect that tho logging mode of BcoTcing out tho-irreat West but nd lumbering industries will suffor tho movement ha by no means ended any serious setback on account of tho and Is on In greater volume than over enlarged forest reserves.

"I cannot sco why our bid should havo been rejected, oxcopt that it is duo to Uio far reaching machinations of tho political influences that havo worked against all bids that threaten actual construction of tho big canal.

"You will notice that, ono by ono, the practical men who havo been iden tified with tho canal havo boon picked off by big financial intoreflta. It is not difficult to trace tho relations. This is very poor business, however, for tho canal is bound to como, if not during this administration, then during anoth er. It is inevitable.

The dena tured alcohol bill, which went to the president for signature, will have the effect of breaking the Standard Oil com pany's monopoly of this new fuel pro duct. Under tho provisions of this bill individual farmers will be permit ted to manufacture denatured alcohol for their own needs or for sale and in large or small quantities. As tho orig inal bill was drawn, denatured alcohol could only bo produced by large distil leries, and the Standard had complete ly monopolized the entire product. It was to preserve this monopoly that Senator Aldrich endeavored to amend the pending bill, but, to his surprise, a large majority of tho sena tors turned against him, and his amend ment was lost.
