bureau with rferenoe to the building of
publlo hixhwmys through foraat rcoarraa
In a Utter to Senator Piles of Washing

to encourage he conetruetlonjof roada

waa allcltad . by tha trail am 11 on by
Senator PUaa to him Of a mamoiial of
' tha house of representatives of tha
otata of Waahlngton on tha subject.
Mr. Plnchot says that any opinion ha
might azpraaa would bo subject to re-
lew by tha secretary of tha Interior.
If th propoaad roada wara to ba built
wnder Section till. United Stataa Ke
vi Red Statute, bacauaa that statute
gives to tho interior department com-
: plete authority. .
-- Dlacuaalng tha matter, rorestsr Pln
chot aaya In addition: v '
"Personally, I see no raaaon why
'action tm and the act of March I.
: 1899, (SO BUt, It it), do not apply to
national forests. 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,"

Washington, March S. Close guard is

to drift into too muoh volubility., . .

favor of tha Spokane people and that

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.

(Rpeeial Dispatch to The JneraiL)
Baker City, March 39. 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. MoAlllstsr of Chicago have
departed for the east after Inspecting
their holdings in ths Goose Creek cop
per district. 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.
Tea Times sUches Than Described,
"After yeara of experience in Michi
gan, Alaska, Old Mexico, Montana. Cali
fornia, Nevada and all of tha great
camps of ths western hemisphere," said
Mr. McAllister. I was loath to believe
that I should find half what I had been
led Jo expect in the Oooee Creek prop-
rxy. imtfini my surprise, upon Inves
tigating the eopper deposit, when I
that the descriptions I had been given
ot it were not only met. but that the
camp was 10 times richer than It was
ueacriDeo.
"There has been no time la trfy varied
experiences in mining that I havs been
so snthuslastlo over a property as I am
over thla ona I never aaw anything
Ilka It before, and would not take a tor-
tuns for my holdlnga" . , , -

Obcto laxative Fruit Sjrup Is a new

cious flavor of fruits; and is very pleas
ant to tak. , It will not gripe or sicken.
It is much more pleasant and effectire
than Pills, Tablets and Saline Waters,
as it does not derange the Stomachy or
irritate the Kidneys, Liter or Bowels.
Constipation.--'
Oanro Laxatire Fruit Byrup will posi
tively cure chronic constipation as it re
stores the natural action of the intestinal
tract. Ordinary cathartics may giro tem
porary relief but the stomach is npset
and the bowels are irritated without any
permanent benefit having been derived.
Thai rmnriit.inn of tha rtatient' remains nn
changed. The Stomach, Liver and Bowels
have not been stimulated and in a few
days a stronger purgative may have to be
taken. This is why Pills and Aperient
Waters never give permanent relief.
Their violent action results in an unnat
ural movement of the bowels and it Is nec
essary to keep taking them indefinitely.
Why ORINO Is different.

SUICIDAL BUT SHORT
ON JUMPING-NERVE
(RneHal tHspatefe te The loarnsl.)
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.
