nitrcod on tho torniM of a pormlt nuthor
Ulnir tho opcnliiK of n amoltor at tho
nilnlnir property on Hokuc rlvor. At a
mvollnir in Portland tho terms of tho
permit Mtibmlttod by tho ncrvlco woro
acceptod by tho compnny officers, nnd
formal contracts will bo signed nccord
liiKly. A $J 0,000 bond will bo filed by
tho com puny, which Is Intended to In
demnify tho forest service for nny des
truction of troca that may result from
Milliliter fumes sprendlnif over adjacent
hlllH.
This lasue, whllo kept comparatively
(pilot, has boen ono of tho most Inter
esting fought out In Oregon administra
tion of thv forest reserves. Smelters,
are Injurious to trees for u radius of
two to five miles, according to size of
tho plant. In northern California a
bitter controversy has been carried on
between tho Mountain Copper company,
which had n smelter operating before
tho reserves woro withdrawn, And tlio
federal resorvo management. Another
fight lu on over tlio fumes coming from
the great llutto Binoltors. which nro said
to reach federal Interests. In Kumpter,
Or., there is u small smelter, but It Una
not run much, nnd prlvnto laud Is most
ly In tho Immediate environment, so that
comparatively slight trouble has been
experienced thoro.
With tho Almoda people, tho forest
sorvlco had opportunity to Imposu Its
restrictions boforo over granting a por
mlt to opon work, oh tho property Is
situated In tho resorvo district, Ne
gotiations over tho terms of theso re
strictions liqro been prolonged, At first
tho service demanded tho filing of a
$50,000 bond, with tho conditions nt
tnohed of having Its own employes .do
termlno whothor suoh loss had boen sua
tallied ns warranted demanding recom
pense under tl;o bond. Iteplylng to this,
tho mliio manngomont said that, thoro
wus not $5000 worth of trees within n
radius of flvo miles of tho property, as
tho growth was scrawny, romoto from
any consuming center, In a rough, for
bidding region, and with no prospeotlvo
coimuorclnl value for porhaps inoro than

Hovorol issues have been gono ovor
