I believe, bowevar, that states, counties, towna or peraona who want to build highways, will Bare much time and trouble, and ba equally secure in their rights by constructing tinder permit from tha forest service. The secretary of agriculture has made It possible for the forester to grant per mtta for road building with practically no delay. Under hla regulations per raits for building roada are issued as matter of course, after a report from the reclamation senrloa that tha high ' way will not interfere with government irrigation, projects. Not only wUl per mission to construct be granted freely, but all tha help possible will be given. The secretary of agriculture is anxious -that as many roada as possible be built and maintained within national foresta . He la equally anxious that they should be freely open to all the publlo, and will not. if legally possible to prevent It, permit the construction or maintenance of a toll road. ' "No greater fallacy exists than that expressed on' the floor of the ssnata during tho recent dlacuaalon of tho for est policy, to tha effeot that tho crea tion of a national forest around a pub- Jlo' highway Interferes with tho nss of tho highway by any ana all paopla Even if a toll road Is in legal axlatanoe at the time of the creation of tho na tional forest, -the right to Collect toll will not be Interfered with until the franchise expires or is legally abnn gated. When -private persons or cor poratlons build roada within a national forest, they are required to- agree be forehand that their roads shall bo open to use by all tha publlo. "The forest service la equally inter ested with tha neighboring people that . the national forests should bo covered with a network of passable highways. If any national forest is restored to the publlo domain, the foraat service permit for the road will evidently eeaaa . to exist, but ths constructed road will fall at onee under tho protection of action m. ' - "It Is evident that states, Bounties and towns are helped rather than hin dered la their road construction by the existence of the national .forests, be cause they receive 10 per eent of all ths receipts from such forests to be vsedi for schools and mad building, and they will receive further material as sistance from ths forest service Itself," i3 J- Mr. and Mrs. John H.

Close guard is kept over the interstate commerce com mission's attltuds toward the Spokane rate case. Members refrain from talk ing and instruct their subordinates not to drift into too muoh volubility., . . Naverthelesa, In soma manner or other, tho Impression has been created that the commission la near to a decision in favor of tha Spokane people and that the moat lively sort of a shaking up- of freight tariffs Is In store for the nation. affecting every shipping center from coast to coaet. Olte Denver DecJaloa. Ths opinion has bean held hero that the railroads did not atrengthen their ease at Chicago wltn respect to tna question of cost of their lines and ths property now held by them. It la inti mated that the commission Is disposed to remember that two yaara ago It felt compelled to rule with the Denver peo ple who complained that the rate from New York to Denver was higher than from New Tork to San Francisco. Prac tically ths sum subject matter was in volved In the two oases, those of Den ver and Spokane, and in view of the greater tendency to revise rates now than was manifest two years ago there la apparently solid ground for ths report- that the - commlssloa will-decide with Spokane as It did with Denver. Of course, the water rats baala la ths essential element In the controversy, and on this point ths commission, so Secretary Moeeley today informed your correspondent, will hold another hearing in Portland on April IS; prior to that date the commission will hear argu' ments by the railroad attorneys here la Waahlngton on ths subject of . Harrl man's consolidation of ths several con stituent roada which new form his system. Although tho two eases are not gar mane, the one to tha other. Incidentally It la learned that the government attor neys are seeking solid legal ground upon which to stand with indictments against the wonderful, wuardllke Haniman for violation of the Sherman anti-trust law, by elimination of competition between hla constituent roada. The antl-rallroad people in - the Spo kane ease contend that it la unjust that the roads should carry freight from coast to ooast at losing rates, charging higher ratea to inland points; they claim that. If ths water ratea argument be permitted to atand, the inland points might be compelled to pay ratea suf ficiently higher to make up for loaaaa cauaed by carrying freight by rail against ths competition of the water Unas. It Is realised that ths Spokane ei has raised fundamental Issues at a time when there is a- disposition to revise the whole transportation system of the nation, and, on ths wave of reeonstruo tionary aentiment, Spokane may win its contention. It Is but just to the commission, how ever, to reiterate and make clear that they have not authorised any utterance which warrants the .foregoing half pre- aicuon.

Leaving money for a payroll and Instructions to put a crew at work on their prop erty, W. Henry Harris of Indianapolis and Dan J.

Mr. Harls will return to this district April 10, when' machinery will be installed and the 21 claims in their control will be opened extenatvely and scientifically. - Mr. McAllister has been In tha news paper business for 10 years, handling mining news exclualvaly, and has worked for the blggeat preaa syndicates in the country, covering every camp of Importance on the continent. His opinion carries weight, and when, he re turned to Baker City wild with enthu alaara over the eastern Oregon eopper belt it could not be construed otherwise than that tha district contains wonders of which oven ths people hers have never dreamed. - - r. BUehest damp la ths World. Meaare. Harris, C C. Cox and D. W. C Nelson accompanied Mr. McAllister to the copper camp. The two former had been there before and knew what to expect, but Mr. Nelson had not seen the deposits before and hla enthuslaam rivaled that of tha Chlcagoan. Exceeding his wildest dreams , of wealth, the newspaper man was hardly ready to believe hla eyea when he aaw two miles of solid red metal lying in the earth before him. Upon returning he stated that hs had seen the richest camps In the world and was thoroughly familiar with, every phase of mining and mineral deposita, but saver' before had he seen a eopper mine equal to that on Oooee ereek. . This property Is the mineral land sold by C. C. Cox snd Van and Love to W. Henry Harris and aaaoclatea last fall for 1220.000.' Ths Cox group of II claims went for 1100,000 and the Vsn and Love holdings of six claims netted ths locators 170.000.

Albany, Or., March 20. A stranger appeared la Albany yeatarday who after being In the olty for a time walked Into the Revere hotel and wrote a note to Dr. 3. L. H11L saying hs Intended to commit suldde by jumping Into ths river from Albany a steel bridge. - Dr. H1U Immediately telephoned to the city marshal and taking his wheel made his way as rapidly as possible to the scene of ths Intended trsgedy. Followed by a large crowd of curious onaa. hs found the stranger wnlklng ' tha bridge en- voting to muater sufficient courage to carry out tha program as arranged. On being asked his intention he said be had been out on the outermost pro jections twice but his nerve had failed him eaoh time and ha waa then endeav oring to bolster it up. Be was arrested Immediately and taken to the olty Jail where It was ' learned his name was Frank Vancex 'an organiser for the Wood mem of America end that he had recently organised a large oamp at Woodburn. The Indications were that he had been drinking heavily and had become deapondent. What Half a Cent Meant. In a recent railroad contract for the excavation for a tunnel In ths weat more than P. 000,000 waa Involved. Before the contract was awarded ths engineers went over their figures time and again, and tha supervlalnf engineer studied them as a whole. It seemed as If every precaution had .been taken to avoid mistakes. Ths plans were accepted and the order was about to go la whan the engineer In ehsrge ;of the rock blasting rushed Into the oiiioe ana aaxea to aee nis xigurea According to The World Today, -he turned whits as a sheet and finally blurted out: - i "This will ruin ma Bee here) I have mads a mistake of half a cent oa the oeet af removing each' eubto yard sf rock. I don't know how I did It, or wny it wasn't discovered before. But I'm thankful Tm in time to save ths company tha lose." It was a small error, nly halt eent a cublo yard, but oa the contract It would havs mads a difference ef enough to pay the engineer's salary a doses times ever. Hs waa not discharged, but for the next few years his figures will receive car.ru scrutiny. . , - PEASANTS POOR COOKS Know Nothing of Cooking as a Fine Art-7-Faets and Feasts. Ws are accustomed to think ef cook ing as being a universal . art among vaguely of, delicious repasts concocted out of nothing with the help ef a char coal nro ana a small pot. certainly among the bourgeotsls that miracle seems sometimes to accomplish Itself, but In the matter of cookery as a fine art, writes a oorrespondent of tna Mew Orleans Times-Democrat, ths peasant belongs to a different world. He knows very littla about It and does not wish te know, because It is regarded as a costly and anneo- essary luxury. Ills breakfast oonalats of .thin soup mads of beans and wa ter, with perhaps a taste ef baoon for flavoring, and thin siloes of brown bread br give it substance. Potatoes and one other dish frequently a coarse sort of pancakeform : the noonday meal. The supper will be more sus taining, with thin wins or elder as a beverage. Jacques Bonhomme has a perfect gen ius for discovering things which are good for food, which yet cost nothing. snd sometimes hs eats things that seem revolting to us, though I am quite willing to admit that clean or unclean In the matter of food, is largely a matter of Inhsrltedprejudlos, He - Is very fond of . snuff, and so, for that matter, are ths prlesta . I havs often seen them take It even In church, i Normandy la a rich province, and Its peaaants are better fed than thoae of other parts ef the country. There Is a tradition that In olden days meat was soVoheap and plentiful that It was need to feed ths pigs at 'the monasteries. They drink a great deal ef cider, es pecially In the "pays ds Caux," and It Is said that this is the explanation of their bad teeth. The dress ef the peas ant woman la this part ef Normandy is extremely picturesque, with the long frilled el oak and the hood which some times reveals a pretty, piquant face. -As a contrast te the general frugal ity ef the peasants' lives, there are the wedding feasts and ether feetlvltlea, whaa they eat enormously, apparently having the power ef laying in a stock against times ef comparative fasting.
