WATCH THE FORESTS
Campers, vacationists, anglers and the public gen
orally should exercise extreme caution over the July
Ith holidays in protecting the forests of Klamath coun
ty. Released from the cares of work over the week
end there will be thousands who will take to the forests
and streams. ii 1 i " m".ii
History shows that most of the forest fires are due
to carelessness or thoughtlessness. The carelessly toased
ciirarette may. and often is. the source of a blaze which
takes a toll of many thousands of dollars of standing
timber
Right now the people of Klamath county should ex
crcise more than usual care in safeguarding the timber.
The Northern lines are planning to extend their rails
iVom Bend to Klamath Falls. They will tap a timber
region where 20,000,000,000 feet are available. - They
will base their application for construction of the line on
the fact that this lumber tonnage is awaiting them.
But what would happen if the red tongue of the fire
demon should lick its destructive way th rough t these
virgin pines? It is not without the realm of possibility
that an uncontrollable fire could start in this timbered
area and bring such destruction as to make uncertain as
to whether or not another railroad would desire to come
into the Klamath country.
Forest fires in most instances are a needless loss and
and an almost criminal waste. It is good business to
protect the forests. It is not alone the problem of the
lumbermen, but the problem of every .person who has the
best interests of Klamath county at neait

with a biiuiII "p," but tho group

llosldos, bo's a Democrat, nnd to
bo offecllvo at this tlmo, Progressive-Ism
needs to draw from the
Republicans' strength.
Thnl about exhausts tho list of
avallables.
Progresslve-hun, If It's to survive
without La Follotto, must survlvo on
ItK own merit. It can't hopo to bo
pulled through by vlrtuo of strong
leadership.
This, of course, refers to tho rro-gresulve-lsm
which was launched nt
tho. Cleveland confornnco of a year
ago.
Something olso may develop later
along thn name linen. That's a dif
ferent thing.

With La Follotto gone, thoy aro
much mora hopeful of Scnntor Lon-
rant's return to tho upper Iiouko and
hopes nro expressed of putting a
regular In La Kollotto's own Beat.
They enn't do this until Novombor
of noxt year, slnco tho vacancy will
ho filled temporarily by Qovornor
Hlnlno's appointment, and, ns ho Is
a I'rogresBlvo himself, a Progressive
will be his choice
Ono remark by Scnntor Whonler
may provo Blgnlflcnnt-that "l.n Kol
lotto dead 'will ho moro powerful
ovon than La Kollotto nllvo."
This Ihii'I ImpoHsihlo. His name
may bocomn ono to conjure by.
With his denth, much of tho blt-
lornoHS which wns felt toward him
living will disappear.
Idealized, tl is quite likely there

perhaps a strength greater than
his own, a living man on tho Senato
