Giftord PInchot of the govern ment forestry bureau, has written Sen ator Foster of Washington, that he will be In Taocma about the first of October and expressed a willingness to meet the Washington people with a view of dis cnvlng the forest reserve question as it now affects the state. The visit of Mr. PInchot to Washing ton might serve as an opportunity for a ht-art to heart talk with him concern ing reserves In this state. Oregon with nn area of 60,518,400 acres has lost by withdrawals approximately 15,135,650 or about one fourth the entire state. wasmngion nas an area oi .;.d,-w wtth 8,000,000 millions set aside as re si"ve. It Is now proposed to ftdd 1000 oo more making the reserve U.OOO.OOO.or about one fourth the entire state which will be the same ratio of loss that Ore gon suffers. . If the people of Oregon cannot ar range to get Mr. PInchot within the borders of this state to discuss with drawals It may be we'l to go after him, if he must be followed to Tacotna or even to Washington, D. C. Mr. Pin chot is looked upon as the champion of the reserve business. In fact many con servative people call him a reserve "crank." If he is Oregon and Washing ton are certainly paying a big penalty for hfs crankiness. His recommen dations seem to go with the interior de partment and every acre that comes within the range of his sweeping vision Is marked as desirable to save from the settler. "When this withdrawal busi ness has been carried so far that for every three acres of land in the slate there is one acre" set aside and its use forbidden, It Is time for action. It is unfortunate for Washington and Oregon, especially the latter, that the reserve and witMrawal craze should be permitted to run riot at this time when immigration is turned this way as it has never been before. This carving out of withdrawal acreage and driving back settlers has already set this stata back in the march of progress and it will be .more noticeable as the popula tion Increases. The state is earning more than its share of withdrawn lands and Its time for the department to dele gate a man more practical than "scien tific" to pare down rather than Increase its millions of reserve In Oregon. And herein lies a great danger. It Is stated on good authority that the script man Is ready to plaster the with drawn lands the moment they are re leased. The government owes It to the settler to circumvent this scheme. One no less than Senator Fulton, speaking on this situation yesterday said: '1 am confident, from information that I have, that syndicates are now forming to secure and have ready script to place on lands now held in reserve themoment they are restored. Doubtless the same leak that gave the tip touching the withdrawal will be equally accommo dating In giving early, notice of any j proposed restoration.

A dispatch from Portland appears In this Issue of eh Astorian showing the expenses Incurred to date by the state board of commissioners for the Lewis and Clark fair.

" The public has first Interest In the half million appropria tion, for the exposition and publicity is a safeguard demanded of the manage ment of corporations and public con cerns. ITnless kept informed the pub lic is prone to irow suspicious of the management of public affairs and not altogether without reason.

Is the best blooc purifier In ths world. " Mrs. M. P. BMYTHEBS, WytheviUe, Va. T? 1 your A Good Beginning It the blood is ia good condition at the beginning of the warm season, you are prepared to resist disease and are not apt to be troubled with boils, pimples, blackheads and blotches, or the itching and burning skin eruptions that make one's life a veritable torment and misery. Kow is the time to begin the work of cleansing and building up tht Diooa ana euengmening me weaK places in your constitution. During the cold winter months we are compelled to live indoors and breathe the impure air of badly ventilated rooms and of fices. We over-work and over-eat, and get too little out-door exercise, and our systems become clogged with impuri ties and the blood a hot-bed of germs and humors of every kind, and warm weather is sure to bring a reaction, and the poisonous matter in the blood and system will break out in boils and pustules or scaly eruptions and red, disfiguring bumps and pimples. Make t good beginning this season by taking a course of S. S. S. in time ; it will not only purify your blood and destroy the germs and poisons, but promote healthy action of the Liver and Kidneys and give you a good appetite at a time when yon need it most S. S. S. improves the digestion and tones up the Stomach, and you are not continually haunted by the fear of Indigestion every time you eat, or troubled with dizziness, nervousness and sleeplessness. There is no reason to dread the coming of warm weather if you have your 6ystem well fortified and the blood in a normal, healthy condition. It is the polluted, sluggish blood that invites disease germs, microbes and poisons of every kind and bring on a long train of Epring and summer ailments, break down the con stitution, and produce weakness, lassitude, and other debilitating disorders. Eczema, Acne, Nettle-rash, Poison Oak and Ivy, and other irritating skin troubles are sure to make their appearance unless the humors and poisons are antidoted and the thin, acid blood made rich and strong before the coming of warm weather. A course of S. S. S. now would be a safe precaution and a good beginning and enable you to pass in comfort through the hot, sultry months and escape the diseases common to epring and summer. S. S. S. is guaranteed purely vegetable and is recognized as the best blood purifier and the most in vigorating andpleasantof all tonics.
