"I attribute the excellent results

all the peoplo tising the forest the
credit for tho absence of fires is

incendiaries and three from unknown
sources.
"It is regrettable that tho incendi

most enlightened communities there
can always bo found one or two in
dividuals who cannot respect thr
people's laws. The nine incendiary
fires were apparently tho work of
one or two men. Every effort is be
ing inndo to apprehend the firebugs,
but to satisfactorily rid the commu

thousands of dollars to the citizens
of the county to crudicntc the fire
bug from its community. As it hap
pens, tho fires strung out in numer
ous places by tho fire bug do more
damage before they can be extin
guished than the individual fires nc
