QUESTION CARDS.
Various Forest Industries are
Concerned.

Bringing toa focus the preparatory
work of the past six months, the Forest
Service is sending out question cards to
secur statistics of forest products. The
returns will be worked up into a report,
which will give by States, regions and
species the cut and shipments of lum-
Der, shingles, laths, cocperage stock,
ties, posts and poles during the year the
stock on hand at the close of the year;
and also the amount of wood used in the
various industries for which wood fur
nishes the raw material. and the value
of the products. Circular letters to
manufacturers accompany the cards, ex-
planning their use and object.
The vital importance of accurate sta
%tistics of forest products has appealed
forcibly to manufacturers throughout the
country. The National Lumber Mann
factuiers Association, and several other
associations of lumbermen and wood
users, are cooperating with the Forest
Service. During the summer the ut
most pains has beer taken to make the
Investigation precise and practical to the
last detail. The question cards which
have resulted are clear anu comprehen-
sive. and may be fled out and returned
by the recipients with very little trouble.
1t is quite plain that the success of
this study now depends upon the care
full assistance of the industries concern
ed. In order that the returns may have
their full value to all, each individual
correspondents card is necessary. The
returns will be regarded as strictly con-
fdential, and neither the name Of the
correspondent nor the location of his
mill will be made public by the Service.
A copy of the report, which is to be
published as a resultof the investigation
will be Sent to all who ill out the ques-
ton cards andto others interested in the
use of forest products.

WHITTIER DO WE DRIFT

All men who have never made

without nerve enough to at
tempt anything. There are
more things in heaven and
earth, Horatio, than are dreamt

apply nicely to matters temporal.
In manyW avs we are too impet-
uous as a people and are liable to
make too many errors.
Take Us as a people and we at
present, regardless Of political
affiliations blindly advocate a
thing simply because President
Roosevelt sanctions or espouses
it. Granting that our president
is all right land he certainly isl,
is it not possible that we may be
establishing precedents that will
menace at some future time our
peace and harmony and QUIZ well

We may not, in fact, the

President Roosevelt is ruggedly
honest and blunt, intensely patri-
otto, and the personifcation Of
strenuosity. All Of these quail
tiles inspire the confidence of the
masses and endear him to the
people and they are willing to
allow him almost unlimited pow
er. This may be well in Roose-
velt's case, but how will it be
with his successor?
Autocracy might be an ideal
condition for US and we might
farefvery well under this form OF
government were we assured
that President Roosevelt would
always be the autocrat, and that
he would ever remain the same

SHE IS NOT NEEDY.

With all respect to Miss Alice
Roosevelt it must be said that
to those who are keen lovers Of
our republican form of govern
ment it GER ainly sounds queer to
hear this young lady referred to
as Princess Alice" We won
der how the term sounds to the
the young lady's father? Nor is
this all: Some cracked Drained
fellow has conceived the idea
Of raising a dowry for Princess
Alice" and proposes to make the
Office of the state treasurer of
Oregon the official vehicle for
trundling the scheme to a sue
cessful termination.
We have no cause for fawning
before, nor aping nobility (D;
we have no need of any empty
titles in this country; by being
honest and earnest men and
women, and living up to the
standards set by our better class
of citizens we may, indeed,
make of ourselves princes and
princesses in reality and not be
associated with all the corruption,
immortality and emptiness which
titles stand for in the old world.
Miss Roosevelt is a good young
Lady and we wish her the best
of everything, but she is no bet
ter nor more deserving than
thousands Of other young ladies'
in this country who have not
had half her advantages. Far
better and more charitable it
would be to start a subscription
list, not for a dowry for Miss
Roosevelt, but to provide oppor-
tunity for other girls who are
every bit as good as she but who
have not received, and never
will enjoy. what the world has
yielded the daughter of our
president. It is charity to give
to the needy and deserving.
Miss Roosevelt, although deserv-
ing, is not needy.

THE DOUGLAS SCHOOL

At a meeting of the Douglas School Board last week, teachers were elected for the next term. The ones chosen, from score of applicants, were Mrs. Jane Alexander, Miss Zoora E. Weyer, and Miss Alma Delaney.
 Mrs. Alexander has taught in the Douglas School for the past two terms and her work has been most satisiac tory. She has made school teaching Q profession for number of years, and her methods, which are distinctly her own, have proven successful. Her pupils never fail to become interested in their work.
 Miss Weyer has had charge of the primary department for the past year and has also demonstrated Der quail ffcations and fitness.
 Miss Delaney, is a young lady of marked ability from our neighboring town of Juneau.
 The selections do credit to the judgement of the Board.
 In addition to the teachers named above, it is the intention, so we are told, to employ a principal, who will also take charge of the classes in the advanced grades, or high school depart

county jail in Jersey City today. 1t was

ley's hands twitched convulsively, but Rev.
Emil Meiury, with whom it was said he had
arranged to make the signals and who wit
messed the hanging, refused to say whether
the movements of the hands were like to
prearranged signals. After the rope had
been placed about Tapley's neck and he
was asked whether he had anything TO say
he replied
Gentlemen, | am guilty Of this crime
exceedingly guilty. ! sorry for H. She
led me into It by torturing me. | am sorry
for IL and am Justly punished.
When the hangman stepped forward to
tighten the rope Tapley collapsed and fell
