Let we'll enough alone" is not so
good Il motto as Better and better"
lie who has done one thing well, ought
to Improve on 1t at once. ANY present
attainment should be an Indictment to
renewed endeavor at progress. Even
commentator and praise are harmful
to man, unless they spur him to do
more, and to do it better than he has
yet done. Mr.. George W. Childs said,
recently, that he owed much to the
thought expr ssed to him by an old and
valued friend. who was in habit of
saying, when Mr.. Childs consulted him
with reference To any achievement or
plan of his. "rhat-and better-wili
do. This idea has been acted on by
Mr.. Childs in all his business life; and,
with all of his great business success,
he is AS DESTROYS of new and improved
methods and attachments to-day as he
was when he began the business. His
Public Ledger is not contented with
even its present high position, but it
starts out anew just now, in improved
form and plan; and only this and better
will meet its proprietor's ideal. 1t is a
pity that this idea is not more prevalent
i'll every sphere of life.

J id the two great railroads traversing

,duce the formation Of settlements with
view to mixed farming, in those Sec
ions now permeated with ~irrigating
canals. He estimated the agricultural
population of Montana at about $4,000,
and drew attention to the fact that this
was too small for the total popula-
ton. He attributed this in a large meas
ure to the late speculative epoch through
the country had passed, and
caused people to flock to the
towns and cities. This period being
comparatively over, a large portion OF
these would naturally gravitate back to
agric1ltural pursuits.

formed a strong opinion that MIR. Sinai,

compliments regarding the growth OF

and half our forebodings were only

borrows trouble from the moon, and
grieves that he may not write thereon

A gift not all Of gold was Montana to

The second department convention,

Lawyers Of Ripe Learning and foung
Ambition Combine
Judge Dexter r. sapp has retired from
the firm Of fishback, sapp & Ferry. of
which firm he has been a member for the
past eight months. and has associated
with him Mr.. Fred III. Lysons. Yesterday
the new firm moved into their Offices in
the Bailey building.
Judge sapp came to the city the first Of
this year from Colorado, where be had
practiced his profession for eleven years.
Previous TO that time be had practiced
Law for thirteen years in the state Of
Michigan. He vas also on the bench for
a number Of years in each state. Since
coming 10 Seattle he has won the con-
fidence and esteem Of the mem ers Of his
profession and Of the business community
generally, and has demonstrated his
ability 30 cope with the leading attorneys
of this city.
Fred II. Lysons, whom Mr.. Sapp has
associated with him, is young attorney
of ability and promise. He was formerly
auditor OF snohomish county, which posi-
ton he filled with credit and satisfaction,
and soon after retiring from Office was adj
mitted TO the bar. About year ago he
returned from the New York law school,
OF New York city. having completed the
three years course of study in that in
stitntion. and soon afterward located in
this city, where he has since practieed.
Judge Sapp possesses one of the largest

starts out with good business and excel
lent prospects. and will doubtless soon

ST- CLoUD. MIMI, Sept. s-There are in
timations that the state senatorial COM
mittee, which for months has been in
vestigasing frauds against the state in
cutting pine from school lands, will be
able 10 show astonishing evidence, not
only that timber pirates appropriated
millions OF dollars worth of lumber be-
longing TO the state. but in trying to cover
up stealings started fires which resulted
In terrible loss of life and property in
Pine. Kansbec, Carlton aud other counties.
Ii Is charged that lumbermen fred the
lands which they had improperly cleared.
to render the measurement of stumpage
impossible and thereby shut of suits
which the commission might attempt to
bring against them. In one of the
chief hotels in ST. Cloud scout en-
ploved by the commission 10 ferret
out cases of lumber thieying has declared
that he had secured sworn evidence that
millions of feet Of lumber had been stolen.
and that as soon as it had been cut the
lumbermen instructed their employees to
'burn the ground over. and make clean
job of it," A torch thrust here and there
into plies of toppings, in such . dry season
rs this. starts fire that eats the stumps
from which the lumber was cut down TO
Jumps of charcoal, and when the gaugers
OF the commission come to measure the
stump&ge on the rayaged school lands
they are left with absolutely no basis for
calculating the amount Of lumber stolen.
This is what crooked lumbermen want,
but in starting these fires they made alto
gether too clean job. The fires have
spread over 1000 square miles OF country.
They have destroyed nobody knows how
many hundreds of human lives and de-
voured $50. 0o0, 600 worth of property.
Whether or not il can be proved that these
fires grew out of little ones kindled by the
timber pirates, there is loud demand
through the pine country that the manner
of cutting timber be severely regulated
