CURED to put the building in shape
II is very likely that congress vii
be asked to construct building to
be permanently used for such
affairs.
Prior to year ago many addi-
tons to the forest reserves in Idahc
were proposed and lands we're with
drawn in contemplation Of the
creation of these additions. These
proceedings we're vigorously con-
tested by Senator Hepburn, and he
has had number of interviews and
many communications with the Of
ficers of the government in regard
to the matter. He has just been
furnished a map showing the lands
restored to settlement. These pro-
posed forest reserves we're opposed
by Senytor Hepburn With the view
of keeping open for settlement as
large portion of the public domain
as possible. He took the ground
that these forest reserves excluded
public lands from settlement without
any compensating advantages. The
lands restored in Idaho to settle
ment as result of mis- efforts aggre-
gate more than six millions OF acres.
Congressman French is doing
some good work for the country
people OF Idaho in sndezvoring to
have the rural free delivery service
extended as much as possible
throughout the state. He is now
urging the establishment of several /
of these routes. On January l.,
1908, there were only twelve of 4
these routes in operation in the
whole state, while today there are
twenty-eight, and ten more applica-
tons are pending. Mr.. French is
Of the opinion that there is oppor-
unity for the establishment OF many
new routes in Idaho, and is anxious
hat they be begun az early as pos
'ible.

Washington Letter

President and Mrs. Roosevelt
we're at home to all the world las
Monday. Standing in the beautiful
blue parlor of the White House and
surrounded by the ladies and gentle
men of the cabinet circle, they re-
ceived the representatives of thirty
eight foreign powers and many
thousands of American citizens who
wished them a happy new year.
Never has the birthday of a new
year been celebrated in more char
acteristic fashion at the home of the
presidents, and never has the func-
ton passed off more pleasantly. At
this reception every phase of life was
represented. The statesmen who
make the laws, the jurists who con-
strue them, the warriers who defend
them on land and sea, and the plain
citizens who pay for them. all took
part and all received their greetings
from the man they have chosen for
president for the next four years.
Plans for The inaugural ball are
proceeding as rapidly as possible
under existing circumstances. but
there has been considerable delay
as to where it shall be held. The I

Of the capitol building was very

THURSDAY. JANUARY IL. 1905


If the timber sharks and theiI
allies can extract any comfort from
Governor Gooding's message on
dealings with the state timber they
are welcome to it. We believe the
governor means what he says and
that If bill is passed up TO him he
viii veto it. The following shows
the governors attitude on this i'm
portant question:
"The timber question, beyond a
doubt, is the hardest problem the
state has to deal with. That mis-
takes have been made in the handl-
ing Of our timber in the past there
is no question in the minds of all
those who are familiar with the
question.
CATER giving this subject some
thought and learning what is done by
other states for the protection of
their timber, l am of the opinion
that a radical change should be
made in the manner of disposing of
our forests. 1t is said that our
forests viii reproduce themselves as
fast, if not faster, than those of any
other state in tho Union. We should
take advantage of this fortunate
condition and throw such safegusrds
around our timber and timber lands
az will perpetuate our forests for all
time.
Minnesota has followed this idea
in dealing with her timber lands that
belong to the schools, and already
three crops of timber have been sold
from the same lands, bringing in
millions of dollars to the school /
fund.
COLORADO also has . recent law
providing for the preservation of
her forests from waste and from
Tres. and providing a way to dis
'ose of the timber of proper age,

nainder. recommend this feature !

fact that have never patronized
one of these concerns in preference
to dealing with our own merchants.
Probably one reason Why I have not
felt inclined to send my trade away
from home is because it has only
been a few years since l found my
financial condition such that it be-
came necessary for me to arrange
with some one to carry my account
over crop season. In fact it has
not been more than a year since I
found it necessary to run an account
for short time and l am not one
so forgetful of accommodations as to
order from a catalogue house and
send them the money with the order
when our home merchants have been
good enough to extend credit to me

scrip having that power were prohib-
