Thinks He Has a Bonanza.

A Saratoga citizen came to us
recently with the startling an
nouncement that if everything
worked right he had a bonanza.
After taking us out behind the
coal shed for greater secrecy he
unfolded the following:
Il have a cat that has no voice
and | think there is no doubt but
what her progeny will be likewise
dumb. Now if | can start a breed
of dumb cats what a bonanza that
would be! Cant you see that
everybody would want some of
them? Why they would go like
hot cakes at 50 a pair, and the
probabilities are hat posterity
would erect n monument to my
memory for the pains L had taken
to relieve humanity of the terrors
that infest the back yard fences
every night. Think of the saving
in boots and shoes and books and
furniture that now annually goes
to waste, in the vain effort TO stop
the feline serenades from the pre-
cinct of the back part of the
house. Why, man, there's mil
lions in it. I'm going right of
now to canvass the town for or
ders for my dumb CATS" and away
he went full of enthusiasm and
hope for the future.
Although this matter was given
us in confidence we could not
forbear letting the world into this
great secret, protecting the maj
by not publishing his name, and
he a go on raising voiceless cats
just the same.

Every community is cursed
with men and women who are
guilty of that most henious crime
anonymous letter writing. This
community has several of that
contemplate class and a number
of our most respected people are
their victims. Some of them who
have been plying their nefarious
trade here are quite likely to be
run to earth and when they are
they will be made an example of.
The anonymous letter writer is
the most contemplate being on
earth. No punishment could be
too severe for him or her. Too
cowardly TO come out and make
an open fight they skulk around
in the dark and use the mails as a
venicIe for their spite and venom
wounding innocent people and
leaving scars that will endure for
a life time.
The man who sends an anony-
nous communication deserves to
to have his ears clipped, his nose
slit, his tongue cut off and his
eyes put out, that he might be en-
tirely deprived of the power to
further offend decent humanity
with his scurrilous work.

VERIFY, while he talks freely of

United States Senate, is very re-
luctant to have anything publish

that historic man, ON account of
a pledge of secrecy given to the
widow and daughter of the dead
man.
II can say this much, however.
of my connection with Mr.. Davis:
that he was the most scrupulously
honest and sincere man that I
ever had any dealings with. His
life was as pure as it could be and
his heart was tender and sym
pathetic, always lending a will.

Of him. He vas simply incapable
of an unjust or dishonoralbe ac-
ton. However much he may
have been in error in his political
opinions-if he was in error-he
was perfectly sincere in them.
As to Mrs. Davis and her daugh-
ter Winnie | have never met two
women in my life whose lives and
characters were so nearly ideal as
theirs. But l am under a pledge

is E NO HELP
Are Our Magnificent Forests to go up in
Smoke and to be Ravaged by Tim
Der Depredations Without
let or Hindrance-A
Serious Problem.

~ vi Az
Serious Problem.
Never in the history of the this
country has so serious a problem
confronted our people as that
which stands before them today
the question of forest preserva-
ton. 1t is hard to estimate the
very large amount of timber
which has gone up in smoke every
year since Wyoming was a terri
tory, but the amount which has
been consumed this summer will
reach far beyond that of any
other season and yet the time for
fires is not half expired.
The question is: "What are
our people going to do about it?."
Are we going to sit still and see
our magnificent mountains strip
ped of timber by ire?"
AS we write the smoke from FIVE
forest fires in the Sierra Madre
range rise towards heaven and
four or five in the other ranges
surrounding this vally. These
fires are a menace to every min
ing camp in the mountains and
many prospectors will have been
driven out and their cabins de-
troyed before they can be extin-
guished.
But what are the people going
TO do about it? That is the ques-
ton. Are we to sit still and see
our f%oriets stripped of timber, our
streams deprived of water because
of the loss of snow and the gener-
al desolation and depopulation of
the entire valley which is sure to
follow such a state of affairs?.
There is but one remedy-the
turning of these forests by the
government into forest reserves
and then have them carefully
looked after by forest rangers,
whose duty it will be to appre-
bend and bring to justice every
criminal who dares to maliciously
set out fire and unless this is done
soon from present indications
there will be no forest to preserve.
A gentleman who resides in
Pass creek basin was in The Sun
office recently and informed us
that a large forest fire was raging
on the head of Pass creek. He
said:
There have been several fires
in the forests on the mountains
where Pass creek heads and the
present one will clean out a great
deal of the timber that the other
fires left. The people on lower
Pass creek are beginning to expert
enc a shortage of water now even
for domestic purposes and a few
more fires will so bare the noun
tains, which they depend on for
their supply of water both for ir-
rigating and domestic purposes,
and there will certainly be a
water famine on that stream in a
short time. Unless something is
done, and that very quickly, the
people on that stream will be com
PEELED to leave for want of water
The above shows the grave
danger which threatens our PEG.
pie. An appeal should be made
to the Secretary of the Interior to
erect both ranges into forest re-
serves at once Unless this is
done and men set to watch and
protect our timber the most seri-
Gus consequences may be expect
ed.

carefully examined the boat in all her

inspectors returned to Wheeling in the
evening.
The Finley is about completed, the
