It's equally gorgeous displays at sunset Though
there spots in the great Adirondack preserve
where the attempts OF TO improve upon nature
have resulted disastrously and converted the fertile
regions into dreary wastes, there sti remain great
sections where the woods are much as they were
years ago, which are still converted into pri-
yate preserves and which open to the public to
enjoy.
During the winter the state has been engaged IN
an attempt to better the condition OF things IN the
Adirondacks. which really amounts TO real i'm
provement, say those in position 10 know. In the
woods about Lake Placid, of the few regions
where the Improvement fever has not yet been
allowed 20 run riot, the state released this winter
number Of elk secured from the Austin Corbin pre-
serve in New Hampshire. In the last six years wild
elk IN the AdirOndacks have been steadily decreas-
ing, until a recent estimate by the State Forest,
Fish and Game Commission placed their number
low $50 1t is in the effort continue the propa
cation of these animals, once numerous IN the
Adirondacks, that the state released a number IN
the wild Cascade Lakes region, short distance
from Lake Placid.
Another Improvement undertaken by the state is
toward the reforesting of heavily wooded
parts Of the Adirondacks which have been laid
bare. To accomplish this a large force of men is
kept constantly al work. under the direction OF
the Forest. Fish and Game Commission. In the last
year several tracts OF land have been planted with
young trees. which now said to be doing well.
One Of these is few miles outside OF the village of
Lake PLACID. The trees planted there are pines.
In 1905, when the work was first begun about
10000 were set out. That winter the heavy frosts
killed many of them, and last spring many had 10
be replaced. After this second planting the trees
seemed 10 do better and this spring a third lot OF
10000 trees is being added to the colony After the
work is done the planting force OF thirty men. I'M
der the direction Of Forester Knechtel, will begin
planting near the St. Regis lakes.
Another form OF improving the Adirondacks in
which the state has long been engaged. and which
Is this season being pursued as vigorously ever.

There are many transportation Improvements
genuine and others visionary, which are now
projected for the Adirondack territory. They
range anywhere from trolley systems y automo-
bic stage lines, and each has been talked about
great length. Thus far. however. most of +hcm
are on paper only and the visitor to the Adiron-
dacks this summer must come as he has come for
wears past There are two ways Of getting into
which direction the bulk Of the summer visitors
come one Of these is the lines of the New
York Central Railroad by way of Utica and the
other by the trip along the shore Of Lake Cham
plain to PlattshurE the lines OF the Delaware
& Hudson Railroad, and then across the noun

 At a meeting of the Arkansas yellow pine lumber manufacturers held in St. Louis on November 5th to consider the situation which has developed in the past four weeks, and to be followed by another be- fore this article shall appear in print, 1t was the concensus of opinion among those present that the blow to fall upon saw mill labor should be softened to the utmost possible extent. There were sug- gestions in number as to how this result might be brought about. but the prevailing view seemed to be that present crews should remain numerically intact, giving to every worthy man an equal chance at the amount of work that could be pro- vided. It was frankly conceded on all hands, of course that reduc- ed operations would be necessary for quite while to come, and that while every one should act for him. self with respect to output reduct- ions, common humanity demanded that the time of running. rather than cut-doWns in wages or crews should be the order of procedure.
 Most of those in attendance at the meeting were of the belief that it would be some months vet be- fore they would be able to secure sufficient money to fully meet their pay-rolls, owing to the all most complete withholding of cash by the banks; but this disagreable outlook would, it was made plain, influence them to close their plants and throw their labor into idleness. as has been done in so many in stances by manufacturers in differ ent parts of the country. Instead. the machinery would be kept turn ing from week to week to the ex- tent that market conditions would justify, providing the employees were willing to share the burdens of the situation by excepting re- duced time for work and merchan- disc cheeks for their labor. All would thus be able to make a liv- ing until such time as trade and financial conditions should improve to point to admit a change for the better in these particulars.

 Hon. w. E. Patterson, Dear Sir:-
 Replying to your oren letter in lasts weeks issues of the County papers, in which you com plain at the publication of my pro- position to you, will say that l wrote to you on Oct. 18th asking , you to join me in request to the Central Committee for prelimin- ary primary, in which it should be determined which of us should re- main in the race for Prosecuting Attorney.
 On Oct. 29, after waiting nearly half month for a reply and re- ceiving none, handed these letters to the papers for publication, and at that time had received no re- ply to my proposition, just as the papers of the .5lst, stated. . On Wednesday afternoon, Oct. 3Oth, at four o'clock. received your reply in an envelope showing that you mailed it at l2 o'clock that same day, but the letter en- closed was dated Oct. 2lst. a de- crepancy of nine days between the date of the reply and the day it was mailed to me.
 The County papers go to press on Wednesday afternoon, and my letter was already in the press when your reply was received. In that letter you rejected my propo- sition to abide by preliminary pri- mary of the Democrats of Union county.
 Yours very truly,

earlier and hsrder than any, other. industry in the country, and since abnut the begining of the fall season the columns of this paper have literally teemed with ac- counts of the many sided efforts of the Southern pine mills to reduce production to proportions having some regard to the limited demand and the pauclty of shipping equip ment. The mills in the territory east of the Mississippi river have had an especially hard time in this relation since before the beginning of the autumn period. and yet not Withstanding their long-endured. distressful condition as to both market and cars, there is apparant- ly no need of continued curtail- ment of output for the proper re- adjustment of supply to demand. On the west side of the Mississippi river the necessity of -curtailing output was not so keenly felt at the outset and during the early part of the fall season; but just at this time the situation among the mills in that section is fairly com parable with that which obtains among like establishments on the sunrise side of that watercourse. In Arkansas. Texas. Louisiana, Missouri and Indian Territory alike stocks are now burdensomely heavy, especially in the lower grades, and with cars scarce and the demand further reduced by the present financial scare, manu- lecturers have much reason for the dejection and the loss of confi- dence which they now exhibit.
 The situation would have been bad enough among the yellow pine fraternity of the South had not the semi-panic spread from Wall Street to all parts of the country and driven money into at least temporary retirement. With the dissapearanc of cash with which to meet pay-rolls and other neces- sary expenses not heretofore set tied with checks, new compicat- ions and troubles in variety have been superimposed upon old ones. But these need not be dwelt upon in the presence of other things more important and more serious by all odds. For. however much fric- ton may result from the necessity

A Good Omen.

1t is healthy sign that there many promi-
in both great parties being mentioned for the
presidentia nomination of their respective political
organizations A number of States getting ready
to boom favorite sons, and thus far candidate
in either party appears to be assured of success.
The fact is of recognition that the people of the coun
try taking much interest in the question of the
next presidential incumbent and that the matter of
his selection is not going to be left largely as up
on many previous occasions, to the party leaders
The number of Democrats mentioned possible
nominees indicates that strong hope entertained
of the partys in the National campaign
1t is generally recognized that the principle and
policies of the Democratic party correct Their
opponents have during the last few been forced
to adopt those principles and policies large de-
gree, but it is rightly believed that they could be
made the effective by their original advocates.
While there is growing cleavage between the Re
publcans to the policy to be pursued, there is an
increasing disposition among Democrats to get to-
gethef and this latter process will be greatly aided
by the selection by popular sentiment of presiden-
tial nominee from list of eligible candidates pre-
sented By different States and sections.
