Upon the result of the vote for the
nomination of congressman being an
nounced, the convention was one scene
of irrepressible enthusiasm, and amid
the cheers and applause of the as

F. Lacey was called to the floor and
in the following manner expressed his
appreciation for the honor that was
again shown him by the republicans of
the Sixth district and his thankful
ness for the continued support that
they have extended to him during the
years of his congressional life:

gress. Words are inadequate to ex-

my ability, to justify and deserve your
good opinion, and can only promise
now that If again elected, I will en-
deavor, as well as l may be able to
represent the people, and the whole
people of this district. in the Fifty
eighth congress. can never forget

have been several for leasing public

the settlers on the ground that large

before vegetation has begun, are the
dangerous seasons for forest fires In
most densely-wooded parts of the
country. AT such times special precau-

should be kept alert by constant re-

as the bureau of forestry suggested Is
to placard trees along the roads and
trails with notices of the danger and
warnings of penalties to be incurred by
those who violate the fire laws.
