To the RATHDRUM TRIBUNE:
Y Through the valuable columns Of

through our frequent letters from Mr..
Crater, who is~assisted by Mr.. Pal

left in charge of the interests Of our
"Kootenai Ranch" near Granite,
during our winter absence, we hnd
that our good State Of Idaho is not
far behind the record of New York
and the Middle Western States, in
snow and sleet, and frequent storms,
which have marked the winter Of
lOO3-4, as a most unusual one, both
East and West in climatic conditions

lnents at home and abroad have not
been wanting to mark this as a most
memorable season in the political.

s'The creation Of forest reserves in
Idaho and ihe Withdrawals of large |
areas for extensions has reached a |
point where a halt must bc called,
said Senator Hepburn today. "The
present areas Withdrawn and proposed
TO be with drawn comprise l3, 224 ,0S0
acres, or - per cent Of the total land
area OF the state These Withdrawals
have worked great injury to the state
and are doing much TO, retard its
settlement. The future OF Idaho
depends upon the number Of people
who make their homes within it. and
this is regulated by the amount of
available unembarrassed territory sub
jcct to appropriation as homes under
the laws Of the Uuitcd States. Idaho
caiinot grow under the restrictions
that are being placed uron it. The
growth OF the state is paralyzcd to
the extent of the horders Of these re-
serves, because business men and
mining investors wall not invest
money within these withdrawn areas.
They will not place theniselve, In a
position where they must ask per-
mission to do that which American
citizens in other parts Of the country
may do without. Some Of these re-
serves, particularly the Bitter Root
and Occur d'Alene, cover some Of the
Oldest settlements In the state, some
uf the most important mining camps
and many valleys adapted to agrlcul-
taral settlement. The borders of
these reserves are not conllHed to the

ing brought into acquaintance with
Mrs. Taft, wife Of our Secretary Of
War, who has quiet home here,
with her young boys, for the winter.
Mrs. Taft has a strong womanly per-
sonality and most attractive face
and manner. As she had but recent
fly come from Manila, by way of Ja-
pan, where her distinguished hus-
band received great attention and
many honors, ! was much interested
in what she told me Of the intense
feeling there, against Russia, against
which country she had not then de-
clared war, although at that time,
the Japanese high officials we're con-
stantly in receipt Of anonymous let
ters from their subjects, threatening
their immediate assassination, un-
less Japan promptly declared war
against Russia.
| The agricultural interests Of certain
parts of California have greatly suf-
fered this winter for want Of rain and
the people fairly envied the outpour-
ing of the waters at the North, wish
ing that they might have just por-
ton of it to tide over their fields and
their cattle. But at last the rains
during several nights have relieved
the situation and joy and relief have
taken the place of anxiety and alarm.

The ruling Of Secretary Hitchcock
today in regard to final proofs in des-
ert land entries, will put the screws
to the desert land thleves and throw
a scare into thousands of applicants
for patents under the desert land law.
The ruling is the result Of an in
quiry concerning the acceptance by
the Land Office of flnal proof Of an
entryman in Wyoming, said proof
consisting of evidence showing that
marked increase in the growth OF
grass or grass sufficient to support
stock had been produced On desert
land. 1t seems that certain express
ions in the decision had been taken
as indicating Il purpDsc to encourage
the offer and sanction the acceptance
OF dnal proofs in desert land entries
that do not clearly establish a strict
compliance with all the requirements
ef law. That such result was not
contemplated when that decision was
rendered, and that The Department
does not intend there shall beany re
taxation Of the enforcement Of the
requirements; and that the law and
regulations governing Such matters
must be complied with in every ts-
scntial particular, is most clearly set
forlh in the ruling today.
The Secretary h,lds that entrymcu
must have an absolute right to sutii.
cient water to successfully irrigate
the land. That the system Of ditche:
to conduct the water 10 and distri-
butte 1t over the land must be adequat
for this purpose, and that the lant

Mistake Was in Locating It on Base
ball Diamond.
Henry Turner Bailey, until recently
State Supervisor Of Art Of Massachu-
sets, says there is a wrong and a
right way to induce the children to
love the beautiful, and he tells the fol.
lowing story as an illustration. A
superintendent of schools, during the
vacation period, made beautiful gar.
den in school yard, thinking that if
he made it beautiful enough the boys
would not destroy it. With September
lot Of energetic boys came back to
school, and in few weeks the garden
was trampled down and ruined. The
tOwnspeople were indignant at the ruff
fianly behavior Of the schoolboys, and
spoke of them in rather harsh terms.
Early in the spring there was
change of superintendent, and the
new man heard almost Immediately OF
the spoiled garden. He went up to
the school and made friends with the
boys, and then he said. "You boys
don't like flowers, do you?"
They declared emphatically that
they did.
"Then why did you ruin that flower
garden?" he asked.
Well" said the spokesman of the
crowd, "they ought to have known bet
ter than to make it on our baseball
diamond"
