TALK ABOUT EQUALITY.

Equality levels up but never down.
A theory of equality that was worked
out by dragging virtue down to the same
level as vice would be destructive Of all
social order.
Sometimes you'll overhear some we'll
dressed man or woman engage in argu-
ment or alteration. They get angry,
use coarse language, belle the proverb
that "Fine plumage makes fine birds" }"
and at last when reason and logic are
utterly lost they take refuge in the
statement, "Well, anyway, am just as
good as you are any day in the week"
But the person who claims to be Just
as good as" merely admits inferiority.
It's the knowledge that he is not the
others equal which makes him clamor-
ously claim an equality of goodness.
Gust as good" as Mennen's is claim
made for many a powder. There's no
reason, no logic in the claim. It's the
last outburst of shrewish clamor, bitter
with the knowledge of inferiority, and
there's nothing more to it than the mere
words themselves. Gust as good. as
Mennen's is branded by its own claim, a
self confessed and lf-convicted fraud.

The full measure OF the Importance OF

year The receipts from the reserves
win probably increase with great strides

FOR CLATSOP
TEN PER cENTuM OF SALES OF
FOREST RESERVATION LANDS TO
COUNTIES AREA OF REsERvA.
TIoNs ARE GREATLY INCREASED

| WASHINGTON, July lo.--within the
last two years the area set aside for
forest-reserve purposes has increased
from less than SOOOOOOO TO more than
l00,000,O00 acres. Such chance caused
great CONSERVATION among those who
were not familiar with the objects 10 be
attained. by forest reserves. All the
enemies OF the National forest policy
made ammunition OF 1t, and many Of Its
more timid friends began to fear that
the movement was going too far. Most
of the arguments Of doubters, however
could easily be refuted.
There were two objections that could
not be disposed Of so readily--frst. that
this vast area. as large as all the New
England and Middle States with Mary
land thrown in, took away from oppor'
tunity for agricultural settlement and
home building many tracts of land scat
tered here and there along creeks and
valleys within the forest reserves. The
Forester felt the propriety Of this criti.
cism keenly and studied carefully the
boundaries OF each reserve, to eliminate
as much agricultural land as possible.
Finding that many small tracts remain.
ed he submitted to the Secretary OF
Agriculture the agricultural Settle
ment Bill" which the latter recommend.
ed to Congress and which finally re-
ceiyed the Presidents signature June II,
1906.
Although under this law all land actu-
ally usable for home building will be
brought within the reach Of the people,
there was another strong objection to
the reserves, namely, that many counties
in which reserves lie have much, in some
instances more than half, of their area
withdrawn from the possibility of priv
ate ownership and taxation. The Forest
Service was not unmindful of the unfair
ness of this condition and submitted
bill to grant 10 per cent Of the total re-
ceipts from forest reserves to the coun-
ties in which they are situated. This
proposed law was finally incorporated in !,
the forest-reserve provisions of the agri-
cultural appropriation act of June 80
1906. The clause reads az follows:
"That 10 per centum of all money |
received from each forest reserve during
any fiscal year including the year end
ing June 30, 1905, shall be paid at the
end thereof by the Secretary Of the
Treasury to the State or Territory in
which said reserve is situated, to be ex-
pended as the State or Territorial legis-
lature may prescribe for the benefit Of
the public schools and public roads Of
the county or counties in which the
forest reserve is situated: Provided,
That when any forest reserve is in more
than one State or Territory or county
the distributive share to each from the
proceeds of said reserve shall be pro-
pprtGonal to its area thereinl And
provided further. That there shall not
be paid to any State or Territory for
any county an amount equal to more
than 40 per centum Of the total income
