Abolish Forest Reserve.

{ 4 + 4 s
The opposition Of the forest
reserve enthusiasts to measures
which northern Minnesota de-
mands for it's development and
to insure it's permanent pros
perity and the INSCRIPTIONS and
desperate measures which the
forest reserve people have taken
to effect their purpose has
created a good deal Of sentiment
for the abolition of the forest
reserve. Rather than that the
development Of northern Mime
sofa should be retarded for years
the forest reserve in this state
should be wiped out. The Times
is not an advocate of such action.
We believe in the forest reserve
principle and we much prefer
that the forest reserve in Min
nesota should stand as it is today.
But the development of the
wonderful resources Of this great
section of the state must be pro
noted as rapidly as possible and
if it must be a choice between
men and trees in northern Min
nesota we are for men.
The Times believes that the
present forest reserve is ample
in size and that no additions
whatever should be made.
Thousands of acres of land in
a rich agricultural region have
already been set aside for for.
estry purposes. It is enough.
On the land that is left we want
farms and towns and cities and
people.
Congressman Buchanan has
introduced a bill repeating all the
forestry provisions of the Morris
law. The bill will proba bly, never
become a law; still, it mightif the
forest reserve advocates do not

TIE DONAHUE TROUBLE
We'll Known Doctor Will Tell All When | Courts Unsoll Hls Lips.
To the Editor of the Democrat.

To the Editor of the Democrat. Sir: To my mind there Is no worse form of bad taste than to inflict on the reading public sad story which
 should really concern only the parties
 involved. But the pitiable state of my domestic affairs brought about by
 threats of suit by my wife has been
 seized upon with ghoulish pleasure
 by the sensational part of the press of Waterbury in their constant search
 for the kind of matter that ministers
 to depraved appetite.
 The public will undersand that the
 dictates of chivalry completely tie
 my hands at this moment and expose
 me to cruel misrepresentations by the
 sensation mongers. Therefore, l ask
 suspension of judgment on the part
 of the public until such time as the courts give me an honorable means to tell my side of the story. wish to
 emphasize that after what l have
 suffered for long years as husband.
 father and provider. though not seek ing this redress in the courts, will most gladly welcome it If the oppor- tunity Is offered. am absolutely con- tident that, with complete knowl- edge of the facts, the public would give me full appreciation and un-
 stinted sympathy.
 Until such time shall remain si-
 lent. except for this appeal for sus- pended judgment even though be
 cruelty made to appear monster
 and the reputation that l have been years in building in this city is made to suffer through those who want to profit financially or otherwise from the misfortunes of their fellow
 men.

ROLLER SKATING.

That roller skating Is being res vived in Waterbury was plainly evinced Saturday evening by all who attended the new Eagle ring. The hall was crowded with skaters and the galleries were we'll filled with spectators who thoroughly enjoyed the newly revived sport. Roller skat- ing is much more popular in cool weather and the crowd Saturday night was probably due to the sudden change in the weather. It was an assurance to the management that roller skating will prove popular In Waterbury during the winter seasoa. Since the opening of the rink two weeks ago several hundred beginners have learned to skate and the in- strucfors have had their hands full most of the time. Instructors are at the hall every afternoon ss we'll as in the evening and all those who wish 10 make special appointments for in- struetion in the morning may do e by telephoning to the manager vho may be found at the Eagle rink at any part of the day.

PUBLIC BATHING PLACE
Pool May Be h Shape at Hamilton
 Park Boielu Cold WsathoI.

That Waterbury will have its long awaited public bathing place is now well known fact as Superintendent Walker of Hamilton park Is busily at work getting the pool in shape be- fore the cold weather sets in. Much headway has already been made. but i the work has been retarded because of the difficulty in obtaining cement, none being procurable in town. The bathing pool will be situated in hollow In Proprietors Common. It Is we'll hidden by grove of trees and an ideal spot for swimming pool. The pool will be eighty feet in width and about 125 feet in length. It's greatest depth will be seven and Q halt feet. and It's shallow. est point about three feet. The pool will be divided into two sections, one for the public, the other for private individuals. Although the private pool will be sufficiently large 1t will not equal the public bath. The pool when full will have capacity of more than 500,000 gallons Of water.
 Among those who were out yester- day taking a look at the work al- ready done was Commissioner Finn, of the board of works. He was much pleased with the progress made and thinks that the undertaking can Do finished none too soon.
 The swimming pool will not be the only improvement which the park will have next summer. Plans are already completed for the making of an athletic field at the park. There Is an elegant piece of land for ball grounds and athletic field not far from where the bathing house will be located. With very little filling in and grading a fine field will be the result. Commissioner Finn seems to think that all this work should be pushed as rapidly as possible. He sees no reason why 1t cannot all be finished before the middle of the com- l ing summer. Mir Walker says that 1t will take very little money to make the land into a first-class athletic field.
 | AC CutIuhCo " tuC p0th WAASA has been enlarged is now very att tractive. The numerous flower beds. many of which have been recently made, are more than pleasing to the eye. The cannon which is now near the entrance also impresses the mind of the passerby to the fact that the park is becoming more interesting every day.
 It Is more than likely that the board of works will endeavor to have an extra appropriation of$10.000 giv- en to the park this fall. The amount given Is by far too small to accom- pl!sh what is now in the works and the mayor. as we'll as the members of the board seem to think that an extra $10.000 would help wonder fully. Commissioner Finn is more than enthusiastic for an extra appro- priation. eb.

MANY BIRTHS
ARE RECORDED
City's Population Growing
Fast But Not Expected
to Keep Up

The remarkable total OF 220 births
was recorded this week by Secretary
wigglesworth, OF the Board OF Health.
But citizens. don't become alarmed.
this weekly increase will not keep up.
~ it did, it is safe to predict that VIII
mington would soon become another
Greater New York
The reason for the unusual large
number OF births recorded is that Sec
retary Wigglesworth. who Is now
making out his annual report. has re-
quested all physicians holding records
of births 70 send them In before the
end OF the month, and in consequence
the number this week is abnormal.
Secretary Wigg esworth reports 20
deaths, 22a births and 93 marriages
this week, as compared with "a deaths.
$50 births and 81 marriages for the cor
responding month OF last year.
As reported by the Security Trust
and Safe Deposit Company, tho banl,

spending period last year. showing an

VAUGHN SAYS
lie HAS ENEMIES
Claims They Are CTippIine
Fire Alarm Service to
Spite Him
WANTS AN INVESTIGATION

Albert r. Vaughn. acting superinten-
dent Of the city fire alarm system. is
placing all the blame for the many
false and incorrect alarms sent in
recently, to enemies which he says he
has. because he is a non-union elcctri-
clan. Mr.. Vaughn said to-day that
something was wrong and he was at
a loss to know how to remedy IL.
He claims, however, that the IRE
alarm system IS i'm excellent order. and
desires the Police Commission 10 en-
gage an expert to make a test, and II
there is anything wrong with his inan-
agoment Of the system he will then
willingly hand In his resignation.
Vaughn said that box No. l42 at the
Harlan and Hollingsworth plant was
struck by his assistant, IL. NJ. Smith,
on the test alarm at S.f5 o'clock this
morning, but only "a registered IN the
fire houses. He made an investigation
and found everything all right, show
ing that the line had been opened and
closed by some one other than Smith
or himself. Circuit No. was also
opened, ne claims. between u aud
O'Clock this morning and one tap sent
in. A test also showed this line to be
in good working order.
