SUCCESSOR TO HAY
BELIEVED THAT TAFT PREFERS
HIS PRESENT POSITION.
Comments on the Mention Of Roots
Name for Secretary Of
State.

Although some wise ones have felt sure
that Secretary Taft would be made Secre-
tary of State. there has at no time been
any certainty on that score among those
familiar with the personal inclina tions of
the head of the War Department On the
contrary there has been strong feeling
among those who are well acquainted with
the Ohio man that he will remain just
where he Is, and that he prefers the posi-
ton to any other in the cabinet. When
some one suggested to Mr. Taft several
months ago that he would have opportu-
nifty to become the premier of the admins
tration he said plainly that it was a posi-
tion not congenial to him, and that he was
quite well satisfied where he is.
Importance of War Portfolio.
The dependence which the President
places upon Secretary Taft would be in no
way increased should he go to the head Of
the State Department On the other hand,
It Is possible that Secretary Taft might
drop back from the conspicuous position he
now occupies in the administration family.
despite the fact that the head of the State
Department is supposed to be the leading
place in cabinet circles.
AS matter of fact, the war portfolio
has come to be the most important in the
administration. 1t handles more great
questions, more new and interesting prob
lens, than any two or three other cabinet
places, the State Department included. With
the construction of the Panama canal and
with the Philippines still requiring constant
! attention. the Secretary of War has before
him more questions of public interest and
Importance than any man in the cabinet.
1t was as Secretary of War that Elihu
Root made his national reputation as a
public official, and in the next few years
the Office promises to be vehicle upon
which other men may ride into greater
prominence. Should Mr.. Root be persuaded
by the President to become Secretary of
State, there will be immense surprise here
Mr.. Root quit the cabinet that he might
resume the practice Of law and make some
money. Except the dislike Of Mrs Root
to Washington life, that was his only rea-

State would bring about a peculiar state

the strongest rivals for the republican

who will get out OF the cabinet in about
eight months, and Postmaster General Cor
telyou. The President would be in a deli
cate position. He has been openly quoted
as saying that he regards Elihu Root as
the best fitted man in the country for
President. On the other hand, he is known
to entertain the highest regard, even af-
fection. for Secretary Taft.

w. B. LaFontaine, government official, who has been in this sec- tion for some time looking after the sale of some 25, 100000 feet of mer- chantable timber to the Saginaw & Manistee Lumber Co.,. was in the city last Saturday. In speaking of the sale Mir. LaFontaine said that there seems to be mistaken idea regarding the governments policy relative to forest reserves. As out lined by him the plan is not meant for the perpetuation of the present forests as they exist. but rather to see that they are cut to the best ad- vantage and with a view of furth- ering the growth of the young trees. One of the departments experts who has been in the woods north of Challender for some time marking the trees that are to be cut has discovered that a large percent age of the pine trees are dead or dy- ing, that they have arrived at an age of some three or four hundred years and are now going backward rather than forward. For this req son the government has decided that it is best to have the older trees cut, as within few years at most they will become veritable fire trap, to say nothing of their re- tarding the growth of the young trees at the present time.

STOCKMEN WANT RELIEF
From Charges for Crossing h.
 dian Reservations

Recently a regulation adopted by the department of Indian affairs made it necessary for all stockmen driving their herds and focks from the north side of the Colorado via Lees ferry to pay fee of so much per head. AS this is the only cross ing within hundreds of miles the ruling will work quite hardship on those who are compelled to ob- serve the regulation. Last Satur- day William Mcintyre, one of the county's prominent sheepmen, was in the city for the purpose of circu- lating petition asking the depart ment to make free right of way over the reserve. The petition is as follows:
 WILLIAMS, Ariz., Nov. "A, 'O5. To the Honorable, the Commis-
 sioner of Indian Affairs, Wash
 ington, D. O.:
 Sir-The undersigned, stockmen of Coconino county, Arizona, re- spectfully represent:
 That for some 45 years last past there has been a we'll defined driveway used by the stock men of Arizona and Utah in crossing that portion of the county now embraced in the Navajo Indian reservation, between Tanners crossing on the Little Colorado river and Lees ferry on the Colorado river; that there is no feasible crossing within distance of four hundred (400) miles down the river and two hun dred (20O) miles up the river from said point; that said driveway is therefore necessary for the use ol those who have occasion to move their stock between Arizona and Utah.
 That the stock SO driven across the reservation in no way interferes with the range or stock of the In dians. and that, owing to the feed all along the driveway being very scant and the country traversed practically a desert, it is obviously to the interest of stock men to use the utmost expedition in crossing the same. Any rules or regule. tions or officers for the enforcement of same are unnecessary and en- tirely useless.
 Wherefore, your petitioners pray that free public driveway be es. tablished, not less than two miles in width, along the old travelled wagon road between Tanners cross ing and Lees ferry, to the end that stockmen may know just where they may be permitted to drive their stock in crossing the reserva tion, and that the range of the In- dians may not be interfered with, and to the end that the free and proper use of the same may be per mitted, without the payment of charges or observance or regula. tions. which are deemed burden some and unnecessary.

The coolest weather of the early

snow squalls passed over this section
of the county from Sunday at noon
until Monday morning, the aggregate
depth being about an inch in the
lowlands and more in the mountain
region.
A cold, raw Ewind blew steadily
from out the northwest, making heavy
overcoats and roaring fires necessity,
ana bringing with it the fear that the
Budding fruit trees might suffer great
damage. The freezing point was
reached at several places in the county

be necessary before the full extent of
the damage can be estimated by the

This morning the ground in those
places with northern exposure was

plainly seen from this CITY. Reports
from other sections of northumberland
