By FALSE PRETENSES
Foxy Timbor Broken Using the Law to
Protect Timber, to Bob Timber
' Owners.
That the forestry department of Ore
gon keeps a weather eye open for the
protection of not only tho timbor, but
of the owners, against tho foxy timbor
broker, is attested by tho following loi
ter which has been issued by the do
partmcnt:
"It has been brought to the atten
tion of the state forester that some un
scrupulous timber brokers aro misrep
resenting the provisions tof tho com
pulsory patrol law, which was onactod
by tho recent legislative assembly, and
becomes offectivo Juno 2. Owncru of
timber claims have been told that u.i
dor this law it will bo necessary for
them to keep a patrolman on their
claims all summer, at their owi ox
, penso, and this has been urged ns a rea
son for sacrifice sales. Stntemonts of
this kind aro made purely for tho pur
pose of stimulating tho sale of timber
lands, thus increasing tho business ami
incidentally tho commissions of timber
brokers.
"The law provides that every tim'oi r
land ownor in tho state not residing
within one and one-half miles of his
property, shall furnish a sufficient pa
trol therefor during the dry season, nnd
that in case ho fails to do so the state
forester shall provide tho same at a

cost not to exceed 5 cents per aero per
annum. Any amount so paid by the
Btato shall bo a lien upon tho land and
shall bo collected with tho next taxes.
'It is obvious that tho maximum ex
pense to tho owner of a quarter sec
tion of timber land cannot exceed $8
per year, an amount that should scare
no owner into disposing of his timber
claim at a sacrifice.
"Ono of tho best ways for timber
land owners to comply with tho lhw is
to join the County Firo Tatrol Associa
tions that have been organized in most
of tho timbered countries of the state.
Tt is expected that every timhered
county will have such nn organization
beforo tho fire season arrives. Tho
experience of these associations, some
of which havo been in existence for
four years, proves thnt adequate patrol
can bo secured at a cost of from ' to
cents nn acre, and if nil of the
timber land owners join, tho ncrenge
cost will be materially decreased. Pro
tection from fire lit a cost of $3.00 or
$4.00 per quarter section should bo wel
comed by all timbcrland owners, and
it is hoped that no one will bo Induced
to sell their holdings through misrep
resentations mado by unreliable timber
brokers for tho selfish purpose of in
cronHing commissions. "

nervous I could not Bleep, then I would
be so tired mornings that I could scarcely
get around. It seemed almost impossi

thought I never would be any better un
til I submitted to an operation. I com
menced taking Lydia E.Pinkham's Veg

new woman. I had no pains, slept well,

THE BILL PROVES THE
GOVERNOR'S CONTENTION
(iovernor West has put a neat ono
ncross on thoso who aro responsible for
statements that the state penitentiary
revolving fund, is in a state of doplc
Hon as a result of mismanagement un
tho part of the executive. A bill Mitriv
ilucod in tho legislature by tho ways
nnd means committee of tho house in
itself gives tho lio to theso statements.
At tho beginning of tho West admin
istration there was approximately :f00
in tho revolving fund. Thero is now in
tho fond nnd this is shown by figures
given in the bill a sum of almost $;,
lHt( to bo exact, $1,61 G.!K!. This am
ount is a result of the prison's earnings
through tho revolving fund. Whilo tha
revolving fund hns been in existence
fur soino time, it has not been estab
lished by legal enactment, nnd tho new
law recognizes the vnluo of tho fund
by placing a stato law behind it.
Under tho new law disbursements

usual manner by tho stato board of
control, providing, however, that when
tho fund reaches nn amount in excess
of $10,000, the excess shall bo paid into
