A Fair Trial.
Mr.. Richardson gave to the press the

Mr.. Richardson gave to the press the
following:
1.-THE cause of union labor in this
country has been strengthened by the
verdict in the Haywood case. 1t APP
pears that a representative of the work
ing men may be accused of crime in
thi- country and yet secure a fair and
impartial trial. There have been many
statements made upon tn part of the
friends of both sides rejecting upon
the jury system and the administration
of the laws of this country M one
has had better occasion to know the
conditions of affairs which has prevailed
here where the trial has occurred than
the counsel for the defense We are
all OF the opinion that we have had
perfectly fair minded jury and an
equally fair minded judge; that the
cause has been tried in accordance with
the rules OF law as thy are laid down in
the books and that the determination
has shown that neither the courts nor
juries Of Idaho are owned or eau be in
fiuenced by the wishes of any coterie Or
seIf-seeking politicians or any detective
association anxious to add to It's repu-
taion or to the reputation of any of its
members Unionist.

Timber Rapidly Depleted.

eff the demand for timber could be
kept stationary, and no timber were to
be burned up by forest fires, we should
have twenty years from now, at the
present rate of consumption and de-
struction, only what our forests would
have grown in that interval, " according
to statement from the bureau of for
estry. The total amount of timber
worth cutting is now reduced to 1000,
OO0,0OO,O00 feet and at the existing rate
of depletion, it will be gone within a
generation.
The production of timber supplies
leaped up % per cent in 1906 over 1905.
Three -fourths of the population of the
of the nation lies east of the Mississippi
river, but so per cent of the timber lies
west. The western resources would
last several generations; the east is eat
ing up the western forests and what it
does not consume it exports.
Beyond surmise, very little is being
done. No adequate planting is at
tempted and the public apparently is
ignorant or Indifferent to conditions.
Yet when the price of timber is lifted
100-or even 500 per cent-the coHse
quent rise in rents will fall most heavily
upon the masses of the people. Furni-
ture must rise as well in fact, few
branches of industry are not affected
already by the soaring schedules for
wood of all sorts.
By prompt action on an extensive
scale, something might be effected.
But the comparatively small tracts set
aside for reserves and the comparatively
feeble effort to compensate depletion by
planting, is pitiable when the facts are
known. If one tree were planted for
every tree cut, the situation still would
be serious Inter Mountain.

Haywood's Charitable View.

VIM. D. Haywood, in the bigness of
his heart, has kind word for every
body In an interview Sunday evening
he said:
Il appreciate the support of the work
ing class extended to us by working
men throughout the country / hope
to be able during the coming year to
personally express that appreciation.
81 have no i'll feeling nor i'll will to-
ward any person, am charitable to-
wards all. Ny Intention is 10 go back
to Denver and take up my work where
l left off when was placed under arrest.
II do appreciate the kindness and
consideration with which my family
has been treated by the people of Boise.
II do appreciate, and in so stating,
express the sentiments of my compan-
ions in Jail, the courtesies extended to
US by Sheriff Hodgins and his deputies.
'As to the outcome of the trial have
never had any fear and would have ex-
pressed yesterday the same belief ex-
pressed when first arrested, that is :
With fair trial and an impartial jury
the verdict would be such as has been
given to the country.
"Senator Borah treated me fairly and
/ appreciate it.
Judge Wood was eminently fair to
me and | have extended to him my
thanks for his treatment of me during
the ordeal of this trial.
II do not in any way blame Governor
Gooding for the position he took.

citation Of The wonderful support given
to me bv the presence in the court
room during the trial of the represent
atives of labor, industrial and political
organizs tions.-Unionist.

Worlds Submarine Cables.

The total length of submarine cables
in the world is about 100000 kiloms
279, 622 miles, Of which 60 per cent are
British, ten per cent American, little
more than nine per cent French, and
about seven per cent German. A great
advance in this domain has been made
during the last few years by Germany,
whose efforts tend to constitute an in
dependent system.

Idaho State Lands Tied Up.

"Idaho has practically 100000 acres
of school lands tied up in national for
est reserves" said Attorney General Gu
heen to Lewiston Teller reporter, ''and
the problem Of what is to be done to re-
coup the state from this loss is one of
the intricate problems that is now con-
fronting the administration. The
greater amount of the land is unsur-
veyed and its location not definitely
known and it's value not determined.
But abo 1t IL, 900 acres is surveyed and
the state can ascertain its approximate
worth, but just how the government
plans to reimburse the state for its loss
is another and very puzzling question"
In connection with the questions of
state lands and state grants Mr.. Guheen
gave out the inform ltion that nearly
all of the states special gr nts we're
filled and that it was difficult even with
the little that remained to be selected
to find good lands to fill the quotas.
"Even if the government gave us lieu
land script for our lands within the for
est reserves" said Mr.. Guheen, "there
is no place in the state that we could fill
the quota and get lands that would be
worth the minimum price of SO PEI
acre"
Mr.. Guheen said that the state had
been singularly helped bv the desert
land acts and had been enabled to re-
deem state lands in the irrigated dis
tricts and dispose of them at a fair va
uation. The state has had not only
school lands, but selected lands that
have come into marAet by reason of the
fact that lands are being redeemed
under the Carey act.
"The business of iate lands is grow
ing very rapidly" said Mr. Guheen,
''and the state really needs land com
