RELATIVE TO
TARIFF REFORM
National Treasury Shows Deficit
of Thirty Millions Of
Dollars

Washington ID. c., May with but
cal year. the national treasury shows
n deficit OF over $40. 900, 900. That is,
the expenses Of the government for the
10 months ending with May have
amounted to over $50. 900, 900 more than
the receipts and treasury officials ad-
NIT that there is no prospect that the
deficit will be reduced before the close
OF the fiscal year, on June 30. Under
these circumstances. the administra-
tion must now devote it's attention to
some method Of either increasing rev.
enue or. reducing expenses. and II is
generally admitted that the latter is
an impossibility Secretary Shaw
himself admits that he sees no possi-
bility of reducing the federal expenses
and that the energies OF the ad,riiiis-
devising methods Of raising more rev.
enue. This necessity becomes even
more obvious when 1t Ia recalled that
at this time last year the deficit
amounted to only S2.414.O"0.
Although the president ~ not here
to express his views as to the proper
solution OF the problem. those familiar
with his opinions say that he will re-
gard the increasing deficit as a new

HEveuRN AND FOREST RESERVE
He Accuses Men Who Made Examina.
tions Of Ignorance Of Conditions

Washington, May 4.-Senator Hey
burn is having another round with the
forestry bureau because of the inten-
dozen new forest reserves in Idaho.
Mr. Hepburn is one Of the most active
opponents Of the existing forestry pol
icy Of the administration. Like many
other western senators. ne believes the
west is getting too much scientific for
estry: ne thinks the thing has been
carried too far and wants to call
halt, in his own state at least.
There are now in existence a num-
ber of temporary Withdrawals in Ida
no, embracing several million acres of
land, which will ultimately be perman-
emily reserved, unless present plans
miscarry. Mr.. Hepburn wants most of
these lands restored to entry. and in
a letter to Land Commissioner Rich
ards sets forth his reasons. His letter
is self explanatory, and takes up the
different proposed reserves. The fol-
lowing is what he says In relation to
the Bitter Root .or Shoshone reserve:
AS 10 Tie duOAtlOh " tuC ASAesNl
Root reserve. which includes the towns
OF Newsome and Florence. there Is alb
solutely nothing to be said In favor Of
it. Like the Bitter Root forest reserve
it is at the head Of streams flowing
into regions where irrigation is not
needed. and where the complaint IL
"too much water rather than not
enough. The town Of Florence, which
was settled in 1862, and which, with
it's immediate surroundings has pro-
duced over 500. 100000 in gold. is still
a fiourishing and producing country,
and is built up with schools. churches.
public institutions and homes. A
statement OF these facts should. in IT.
self, be sufficient to make the consid-
Grafton Of the creation OF forest re-
serve impossible.
Il have already discussed the town
of NewsOme in a former protest; 1t is
growing and prosperous town on
the state wagon road. The country
lying between these two points con-
tains some timber, but 1t is worth in
finitely more for homemaking and ag.
ricultural purposes.

Poultry raising is getting to be one
of the most profitable features Of the
flrmer's business in this county. 1t
is worth engaging in On larger scale
than our peop.e have yet undertaken.
The market is unlimited and Loui4l
has a very enterprsins firm that is
hble to handle everything that comes
to it and pay liberal prices. Instead
Of making poultry side line, large
percentage of our farmers would find
it best to subordinate other things
to the production Of good poultry
and eggs. But whether the business
is being run on large or small
scale, the STOCK of chickens should
be improved and new blood added
