' Will Ask Congress i
for Fire Protection
Oreroa Dalaration Takaa Tip Matter

Undr litigation; Hobm ImparUlad.
in-..himrttn nurcBii of The Journal. '
WsKhlngton, .June 30. The Oreson
ilclestlnn In congress is trying to
find oine wav to protect the vast
rea of forest lands which have been
In litigation between the government
and the railroads. The latter took
precautions to protect these lands
from ires but now that the courts
liiave decided adversely to the rall-
roads th latter are not likely to con
cider It good policy to pay out money
for this r4Jurpose even though they
may appeal-their case. Senator Cham
berlain submitted the question to thfc
secretary of the interior, asking him
wh'othr the deuartment could !not
' pare some money for a fire patrol
'rii Hcretarv replied as follows:
-I hve your letters of June 15 and
Juno 17. with reference to the Oregon
JL rallfornia railroad grant, in which
"you say means of ' protection should
be taken against fire during the sum
mer. This land, as you know, does
not belong to the United Sttites, that
is to say, its title must remain In
doubt until the litigation is ended. Can
ou advise me how it has been pro
tected in the past and whether it can
be protected In the same "way In the
future? We have no money with
which ttot work .can. b done. I heart.
lly indorse the suggestion to patrol
these lands for the purpose of fire pro
tection, but inasmuch as the title is
not' In' the government and we are
without the necessary funds, 1 do not
see how the action desired can be
taken. No doubt if congress were to
brovlde the means, we could make ar-
arrungements with the railroad people
. to permit ua to go upon the land and
natrol It."
" ' - Not only the . government lands, but
many farms, homesteads and even vll-
iatfes tire subject to danger rrom ror
st fires. It ie estimated that $25,000
would pay for fire patrol and guards
for the corning year. Senators Iann
and Chamberlain wilU-tty to get an ap-
urouriatlon allowed for this purpose,
and Representatives Sinnott and Haw--
ley will try to- do the same thing in
the house. The case is considered
sufficiently -urgent to warrant con
gress in making a special appropria
tion, even in the face of the general
-demands for economy in national expenditure.
Three Oregonians
Win Homesteads
JFfttanta to Claims Secured Through the
Effort of ReprsentatlY HawUy of.
Oregon Btfor tha Department.
( Washington Bureau of The Journal.)
Washington, Juno 30. Through the
efforts of Representative Hawley three
Oregonians who had their homestead
claims contested have llnally secured
patents.
Charles H. Bradshaw of Newport was
one. of the original Siletz entfymen
While he lived on the land his wtfg ran
a photograph gallery in Newport and
contributed the cash for the ! family
aupport. The Interior' department ques
tioned the good faith of this entryman
and held the claim for cancellation, but
through the interposition of tho repre
sentative, Bradshyw was allowed Wo
make another homestead entry and now
Tie haa proved up and a patent, has
. been issued.
Mrs. Mary A. Baker, a widow with
!two children, took up a homestead in
Juckson county near Butte Falls. She
uut the children in school some dis
tanca from her homestead and was ab-
: sent bart of the time, but when school
was not in session sha. lived on her
claim. The foretst service contested her
entry. She appealed to Representative
Hawley, through whose efforts she so-
cured her patent.
Mrs. Sarah J. Freeman Jiad a -claim
near Waldo, Josephine county. Her
husband nude the original entry, but
. I died' befora the residence period ex
pired. She submitted her proof first
'under the five year homestead act and
It was held that she must submit proof
'under th new act which requires cul
tivation. On account of her physical
' inability to make the clearing required
the department restricted tne area re
quired to be cultivated and granted her
a patent.

Writing Out of Tune
It is a pity when an advertis
ing man is writing; out of tune.
By ihat ; we mean writing
things , about goods - when the
goods -. themselves are saying
something entirely contradictory.
This - thought has struck - us
time and again as we investi
gated recent sales.
We 1 have no concern with
the unlimited amount of
"BEST' and "VERY BEST"
and. "LARGEST" and
"GREATEST' assortments
and bargains except that it
makes one feel that some
body must be writing out of
tune.
What cue want to say is
that we are sincerely trying
to tell you nothing in our
store news that cannot be
substantiated.
