IS A remarkable HEWS Journal Letter From Windy City Tells of Important Things Happening in the : Middle West Results of Business KeYiral. Chicago. Nov. 18. State or federal regulation of timber cutting on lands In private ownership la a new depar . turs In the way of government regula tion tvhich may be effected this win ter. ay lumbermen in this city, as a result of the disastrous forest fires which have made this season historic In . the annals of ths lumber Industry. Tim ber owners here and throughout the Lake and northwestern states, who havfc begun 'to figure up th cost of the fires; have come to the conclusion that something more radical must be done than establishing scattered fire patrols. That this something will be regulation by the state or federal gov ernments, which will not only Insure greater protection from fire but will ' also protect the- soil from erosion and the streams from floods and droughts, is Indicated by the publication In one of the leading lumber journals of an opinion by Judge J. W. Judd of the Jaw department of Vanderbilt univer sity, and formerly attorney for the Louisville & Nashville Railroad corn nan v on the cower of the government to control timber cutting on private lands. In this opinion. Judge Judd traces the development of the powers Of the federal government under the In terstate commerce clause of the consti tution and of the several states under their right of police power, and reaches th following conclusions: "The feder al government has the "power to regu late the use of the forests of the great . watersheds of the country forming the source of the navigable waters, when such regulation has a direct connection with, and Is necessary, in the opinion of congress, to the preservation of their navigability. The states, acting sing ly or In compact, with the consent of congress, can regulate the use of the forests within their mnlts, when such regulation Is necessary, to preserve the soil of the land; to provide food and water for the people to preserve the health and comfort of the people, or to ' protect commerce by preserving the navigable streams." In support of these views he rites a number of recent decision, notably-one by ths supreme court or Maine in wmcn it upneid me right of the state to restrict destruc tive lumuerltig in tn interest or -me general welfare. This Is substantially - the position taken by the supporters of the Appalachian bill at the last ses sion of congress. Thatthe lumbermen, who have hitherto usually fought such legislation, should be falling Into line . is considered significant. Business Bssults. The first results of the big business revival have already begun to make themselves felt In an Inoreased demand .for money, declare Chicago bankers. "At present the volume of free money In the banks Is the largest in the lils : tory of the country," said W. T. Fen ton, vice-president of thf).. National Bank of the Republic, "but there are marked evidences of Improved senti ment anions merchants and manufac turers, and that feeling is already de veloping fresh demands for funds. Our bank will encourage the activity so far as It Is warranted, as we believe that better times are ahead. Since th'e elec tion discount rates have advanced a fill nno half An. KAnf r. supply of notes offered has been de cidedly Increased. Customers from now on will not be held under any re straint when they need money for sane purposes. Adjustment during the panic worked out an extremely health ful condition in general business, and the country Is starting fresh with snnll stocks of manufactured products, big crops, good prices, and an abundance of cheap money." Bank clearings show a Bain and for the first time now the comparison of current clearings with those of 1807 gives a real Indication of the progress toward recovery from the effects of last year's panic, as hitherto the comparison has been with weeks when prosperity was at high tide, before the financial storm broke. A recent week showed a gain of $29,262,179 over the corresponding week of 1807. or a gain of almost $6,000,000 a day. If this rate of increase continues It will not be long before buslwvs will be on a permanent basis of prosperity again. ' . Xilquor Income. . Pw 7.000.00 of Chicago's Income thin year will come from saloons, which makes the Item of dog tax look sick lonly 1128,000. The increased cost of 'licenses from SB00 a year to J1.000 did driv about 1,000 thirst emporiums out ,of buslness.but made an enormmm in. , crease In tha city's revenues. The taxes ion the two billions of assessable prop- , erty brought In a revenue of only $f, 661.461 last year, so the saloon business looms tip as the city's biggest producer with revenues from the traction busl- ( ness, under Chicago's prise solution of Munidtal control of nuhllc ntnm, or,- Ing next, at over $1,000,000 a year. The city had 8.097 saloons in 180E. mm th trevenuaa therefrom were only $4,000,000, )so the decrease of 1,000 In the numbers sof licenses as result of higher oost was imucD mora man onset. It Is said that , itha nuner of women running saloons ;haa not been affected by the price set 'on their licenses. The process of eliml- mmion nas Deen gradual tne numbers jceing reduced from 8.097 saloons to J7,63 at toe outset, to 7,7 after they iiaa six montns more or the license In (crease, to still fewer each six months i since taen.
