The Forest Fires.
Reports last evening from the front
by those coming down on the train
were that the fire3 were about out, a
good sized rain helping materially.
One man who has been to the front
several times declares that outside of
the damage to settlers and the burning
of Turnidpe's bark near Berry he does
not believe $300 damage was done to
the green timber, probably too low.but
showing how the extent of the fire has
been exaggerated. Considerable has
been in burnt over districts and those
logged, or were in the green timber
along the underbrush. One man de
clared that it did his place a good deal
more good than harm, burning up all
the brush. '
Several settlers were burned out,
campers disturbed and such a big fire
is altogether a menace and certainly
undesirable, bad enough without the
exaggeration given it.
