On the 10Th, William Vanderpool,
while on his farm about four miles from
Dafur, discovered fire on Fifteen Mile
creek He gave the alarm and the citi-
zens Of Dufur organized force with the
mayor OF the city, Willard Vanderpool,
in command. They went to the fire,
fifteen miles from the city, where they
found Forest Ranger j. B. SENEGAL,
who had been fighting it for "a hours.
Although he was pretty well worn out,
he showed no disposition to give up the
fight They all joined in the fight un-
til they were successful in putting il out.
Some of these public spirited men

hired man to take their place.
These men had no more personal in
terest in the protection OF the forest
than has every good citizen. But mark
the difference between their action in
leaving their business and going TO its
protection, and that of the man who
carelessly left the camp fire from which
the timber was set on fire.
Ii those people had not gone to the
rescue, the fire would have destroyed
some Of the finest timber and forest
cover on the mountains, where the
slopes are now covered with beauty.

Laundry Destroyed by Fire.

Walter Dickey's steam laundry on
Front street was completely destroyed
by fire between three and four o'clock
Monday morning. Walter estimates
the total loss at 81 ,225, divided as fol-
lows: Machinery, $500; building, $500
supplies, $50 laundry, $75. Henry
Buskirk owned the building, the rest Of
the loss falling upon Walter Dickey,
who was graduated from the Oregon
Agricultural College last June, and who
had placed his money in the laundry
about month ago. There was no in
surance, the company cancelling poll
cy owing to the great risk.
This was the third fire within two
weeks, which leads Mr.. Dickey to think
perhaps it was of incendiary origin.
Friday morning he found small fire
had burned through the floor and de-
stroyed a broom and bucket. The back
door, which he distinctly remembers
having bolted the night before, was
found open. The blaze Monday morn
ing started in the west end of the build
ing.
The adjoining house occupied by W..
G. Carrier, was blistered by the heat,
and four long distance telephone wires
were snapped also the White Salmonline.
There was no wind at the time. 1t was
dark at the time, and the blaze lighted
the town for blocks, giving everybody a
scare, lest the whole town should 60.
When first discovered it was seen that
the building was doomed.

Roosevelt and Mr. Root, says a Washing ton dispatch of ths I4th. Since Mr Root was selected to serve as a commissioned to settle the Alaska boundary, he has natur- ally developed a great interest To the boundary dispute. He and the president were examining the great geographical globe that stands In the cabinet room. They found that the Alaska boundary. as marked on that globe, uphOlds the contsn- tlon of the United Stales, and that, mote ovsr this particular globe was prepared under the direction of the British admlral- ty.

This does not mean that the measure has not sure prospect of passing at this session, tut simply that the most influential mem- bers of the house committee on public lands are not entirely satisfied with the senate amen ments. As already told h these dispatches, the hOus' committee Is satisfied with the amendments as whole, an there Is no serious difficulty. Chair man aesy, however, objects to the senate provision which relates 10 soldiers scrip. He says that no prohibition of this kind should be enacted, for there Is likely 10 Dc no abuse in this connection. Only about r,ooo acres ol this scrip has been taken up in the five years in which the present law has been in operation, and the whole area of land Is small. He states, that If thIs provision of the senate bill goes through, 1t will be unjust to the canning interests In Southeastern Alaska, which sre dependent on this class of land in order to extend their sites. It Is probable that the senate conferess will be willing to accept Mr. La- cey's view of the matter, ana that an agree ment will be reached next week. Then the bill will be placed on It, passage h both branches of congress, and will speedily become a law.
