Federal Forests KdXoKjl Policy Xot Recently published figures show that more than one-half of the land area of the eleven states west of the Dakotas and Texas is owned and controlled by the fed eral government About half of this latyl comprises na tional forests which are one of the principal assets in most western states. State and private' forest service agencies trained their guns on the interior department for fire hazard conditions existing on timbered sections of the public domain at a recent hearing before the senate public lands committee' at Portland. Charges were preferred against the interior department, alleging that no fire patrol or provisions for fighting conflagrations on the Oregon domain were made and the department was selling timber off the timber tracts and allowing the slashings to remain in the woods, contrary to state and federal regulations. E. T. Allen, representing the Western Forestry Conservation associa tion, testified that there were 2,000,000 acres of unap propriated timber lands in the public domain in Oregon, Washington, Idaho and Utah, for which the interior de partment provides no fire patrol or other protective measures. State and federal laws require private owners to pro vide adequate patrols to reduce the danger of fires, but such work is virtually useless if adjoining timber lands in the public domain are not protected. The situation in regard to timber, offers a fine illus tration of the conditions which develop when federal reg ulation, in the hands of departments, bureaus and com missions in V ashington, is allowed to encroach upon and control local resources in the several different states. There is no excuse for further imperiling the great timber resources of the west by a shortsighted national ' policy in regard to fire prevention. Our West West Will Become Most Important of All Land hunger is given by many economists and his torians as the basic cause of all wars, either through the necessity of more standing room for the rapidly increas ing populations of the earth, or the craving for more of the producU of the land. War is excused by land hunger, the early voyages of discovery were prompted by it, and the explorations by the White man have been an expres sion of it- A new evidence of land hunger is the inves tigations that the committee under Senator Stanfield has been conducting in the west, studying in general the con duct of our department of the interior, &nd in particular the value of the reclamation projects, the leasing of graz ing, timber and oil lands; even the ceding of valuable concessions in the national parks to. private individuals. Senator Stanfield's committee is learning that Am ericans are beginning to appreciate the value of their vast domain, as keenly as Europeans must treasure every square foot of their restricted soil. The day has passed, even in the United States, when there is a surplusage of 'acreage. The day is rapidly approaching when cheap land will no longer be obtainable, and farmers will have to rely upon their skillfulness, upon their ability to get the last grain of wheat and the utmost kernel of corn out of every field, not only to make farming profitable, but also to make the land support the vast population of the United States. When that day comes, and it soon will be here, then the west will become the most important division of the United States. It is to the west that the rest of the na tion will have to look for its food. It is to the west that it will have to look for its minerals, its timber, its cattle, its sheep, its oil. So important will be the careful hus banding of every acre of the west that it is necessary now to make a survey to see that rights which have been given away in the past may not have been unlawfully or fraud cntly disposed of. If they were, then they will have to be reclaimed and brought back into the service and bene fit of the public as a whole. W. L. Thompson, Portland banker, is being mention ed as a possible candidate for United States senator, and W. L. Jhompson, Portland lawyer, is being mentioned as a possible candidate for governor. Confusing enough, but to make the confusion worse confounded why don't they both run for the same office? Astoria Budget. right make might, and in dare to do our duty at we Lincoln.

Her dress caught In a chandelier, and she was suspended In mid-air. The minister noticed her undignified position and thundered at the con gregation: "Any pernon in this congrega tion who turns around will he truck stone-blind!" A man, whose curiosity was get ting the better of him, but who dreaded the clergyman's warning, finally turned to his companion and said: "I'm going to risk ona eye." An Irish soldier on sentry duty had orders to allow no one to smoke near his post. An officer with a lighted cigar approached, whereupon Pat boldly challenged him and ordered him lo put It mil at once. The officer with a Keiurc of disgust threw away his cl;,-, hut no sooner was his hack turned than Pat picked it up and it!'-i ly retired to the sentry box. The officer happening to look around, observed a li-aullful cloud of smoke Issuing from the box. Ho al once challenged Pal for smoking on duly. "Smoking, Is it. sor?
