FOREST SERVICE
- CURBEDBY COURT
DEPARTMENT IS FORBIDDEN TO
PROSECUTE FOR VIOLATION
OF REGULATIONS.
. (From the Oregonlan.)
Washington, March 15. Under a
decision of the Supreme Court hand
ed down yesterday the Forest Ser
vice will no longer be permitted
to institute criminal proceedings
against persons who violate its reg
ulations governing forest reserves.
By a vote of four to four, , the
court sustained the action of Judge
Welborn, of Southern California, who
sustained the demurrer of t,wo men
Indicted , for grazing eheep on the
Sierra fore.t reserve without per
mit. Judge Welborn held that the law
authorizing the Secretary of Agri
culture to make regulations for the
administration of forest reserves is
unconstitutional In that it attemp
ted to delegate legislative authority,
to an executive officer and empow
ered such officer to create a crimi
nal offense.
Forest Service officials have not
yet been, advised of this declsfon,
but it Is ithelr opinion that the de
cision of the court merely prohibits
them instituting criminal prosecution
against persons who violate their
regulations. It is their intention to
continue their regulations In effect
and to continue to charge a fee for
grazing within reserves.
Just iow they expect to enforce
their orders, In view of this decision
Is not made plain. If they find them-'
lelveS helpless they probably will,
appeal" to ? Congress to enact their
regulations Into law. " '
' ' "'A 8TUDY IN BACKS
The Ignorance of the average lay
man regarding his own anatomy is
matter of constant' wonder - to the
Osteopathic physician. This is par
ticularly regarding the back. Many
people have a vogue idea regarding
the geography of the stomach, liver,
tonsils, and a few other things inside,
but of their backs they are absolute
ly ignorant. 'There Isn't anything
In the back, anyway," they will say,
"Its just the back that's all." Thus
is this part of the anatomy dismissed
from consideration.
Yes. of course, they have backaches
h mbago, rheumatism, round shoulders
curvatures etc., but that doesn't make
any difference. They continue to
put on plasters and Ida talents, rub
In Iodine; and use hot water bottles,
but they do not devote any more
thought to the poor neglected back
Itself.
Let them go to the average med
ical adviser and describe their aches
and pains. What does he do! Does
he examines the backt Oh, no., He
asks a lot of questions and concludes
the matter by announcing that the
pain is only a "reflex'Trom pelvic
or abdominal organs, or Is caused
by a "general rum down condition,"
or "the blood Is poor," and he pres
cribes a tonic or some preperation
of iron, or treatment for some part
of the front of the body nothing
for tl)e back.
Now, is this In accord with the
clear teachings of anatomy and physi
ology? Let us see. The growth,
action and health of every part of
the body depends primarily upon its
nerve supply. The eplnal cord, .which
is contained within the "back-bone"
Is the center end switchboard of
the nervous system for the trunk
and from lit and to it go practically
all the nerves In the tody except
in the head. Any pressure upon or
any irritation to nerve produced an
abnormal effect upon the organ to

which it goes. Consequently any irre
gularity In the back-bone or ribs or
spinal muscles may re ult in disease
or pain or weakness in some organ.
This la the basic principle of anat
omy and physiology, but has been
largely Ignored by the medical pro
fession until recently. The doctor
has been accustomed to examine the
front of the body exclusively, except
when there was some specific injury
or sore on the back, He had forgot
ten the basic principles of the body
In his strenuous race to keep up with
the additions to his list of supposed
remedies.
The very fact that the medical pro
fession Ignored' the back was the
opportunity for the birth of .a new
school of practice Osteopathy. This
school stepped' Into the breach and
has astonished the scientific world
by Its ready demonstrations of its
theory, that the body, as a machine,
can be treated exclusively from, the

DEATH OF MRS. SHAW,
Word was received in this city
of the sudden death of Mrs. Shaw,
wife of Dr. Shaw, a former resident
of Enterprise and also of Joseph.

and never spoke again. Dr. and
Mrs. Shav have resided la Hood

have a. beautiful home ln that city.

His One Great Chance.
One who had been very rich slowly
approached the giites of pearl.
He appeared to be In doubt.
There was nothing lu bis manner to
Indicate that he expected to be wel
comed with opeu arms or a blare of
trumpets.
He saw others, those who had beeu
poor and bumble upon the earth, walk
up confidently to the splendid entrance
end gain ready admittance.
Frequently he paused as If be bad
decided to turu back, but little by lit
tle be drew nearer to the place where
his fate was to be decided.
At last be stood before the gate and
peered through at the magnificent
scene within.
Then the saint who kept the key,
perceiving him, asked:
"Have you any credentials to pre
sent?" "No," replied the one who had been
very rich. "The best I can hope for
Is to ask that you will permit me to
try to get a camel to pass through the
eye of a needle. I don't suppose I can
do It, but I will try. I have never be
lieved in giving up without making an
effort"
"Your remarks lead me to believe
yon were a rich man."
"1 was a very rich man."
"1 suppose you were not always
scrupulous In your dealings with other
men?"
"No."
"Your riches were not the result of
hard work and honest dealing?"
"No. I gained my millions by lay
ing burdens upon others, by cunningly
evading laws that were made for the
purpose of protecting the weak and by
engaging In enterprises that were of
ten of a questionable nature."
"I suppose you gave many millions
to charity and did other things that
were Intended to divert public atten
tion from your reprehensible prac
tices r
"Yes.' I can see now, however, that
I might as well have saved myself
the trouble. Giving to charity for
selfish ends instead of for the love of
giving. It appears from' certain things
which I have seen and beard since my
arrival here, does not rank as a vir
tue." "Well, If there Is nothing In your
record which ought to entitle yon to
admittance here, wby do you linger?
