have been sent to representative of

had been changed from Tuesday, Feb

the authorities at Washington are

He would also have a wider margin
given in the matter of cutting timber.
There is magnificent timber through
out the islands and it would be bene-
fetal to take much of it out. The
quantity which can be taken out now
by one concern is limited to 100000
cubic feet. He suggested that there
had been some public sensitiveness
on this point because Of the interests
of the lumber and development COM
pany. In reply to Senator Culbertson,
Governor Taft said that he would not
advocate grants of land that can be
used for speculative purposes, but felt
that it would be necessary to allow
persons to acquire large bodies Of
land in order to secure the develop
ment of the country. The conditions
there are he said, entirely different
from what they are in the United
States, and it would be found that the
people would not be so prompt in
taking advantage of homestead law
as in the United States.

of the Thames Angling Preservation

of the hundreds of thousands of fish
which, is various stages of babyhood,

those large sheets of water. Were it
not for the frequent MEETINGS which
take place, the most serious harm
would probably result to the river
from the vast number of fish which
are constantly being drawn from it.
