Increasing Use Of the National Forests.

reserve was created. there have
been established, in the interest
of the whole people, $50 million
acres of National Forests. effec-
lively protected against fire and
trespass. and thrown open on ad-
vantageous terms to the use OF
the public" Thus reads the an
nual review of forest work in the
Year book of the Department OF
Agriculture. "Forests have SO
large place in the national life
that in some measure every citi-
zen shares the benefits which at
tend successful effort to preserve.
restore, or establish them. Yet it
will always be the Western indus
tries which will most profit from
the presence of the existing
National Forests. upon whose re-
sources-mainly wood, water and
range-they are largely depend
ent. The government always,
favors settlers and home builders
and prior users, both by granting
free use of timber and by encour-
aging small sales. The business
of the National forests must in
crease largely; for SO vast are the
resources of timber and minerals,
and the opportunities for various
business enterprises and for the
development of power and irriga-
ton, that the utilization of the
forests can be said to have only
fairly begun.
Throughout the year marked
progress has been made in secur-
ing the most prompt, simple, and
precise business methods. and in
bringing the forest officers in the
field and, through them. the public
into closer touch with the aims
of the Government in its forest
policy. On January /, 1906. the
area of the National Forests was
81, ,773,617 acres. and on December
81, 1906, 1877, ,l54.37l acres; but the
receipts increased in greater
proporiion-from S273.660 in
1905 to S1,004.lS5 in 1906. In
addition, $1,000 permittees (near-
by settlers and ranchmen) were
granted timber free of charge to
the value of $4,000.
I'm disposing OF timber on the
National Forests, every effort has
been made to meet the local con-
ditions in each Forest and in the
different parts of each Forest
whcre the character of the timber
and the market require special
consideration. This has been
done not only by varying the size
OF the trees which are cut under
the sales in accordance with the
kind of timber and the situation,
but also by supplying the needs
OF the people in each vicinity
with the particular kind of timber
required by them in their in
dustries.

were important accomplishments
of the year.
"Planting operations are at
present centered in 8 nurseries

Everybody loves Marse Henry Wat

able of mortals. Many good Demo
Gratis will regret that he seems to have
thrown his eccentric once more. Last
year he made a speech of welcome to
Colonel William Jennings Bryan when
he visited Louisville just subsequent
to his return to his native land from
his tour of the world which for per-
feryid eloquence threw all other vel
come speeches to the great Nebraskan
completely in the shade. That Wat
%tersonian speech rang through the land
like a bugle call to duty, and it rang
clear and true. Everybody that Is any
body among Democrats rejoiced with
exceeding great JOY that Marse Henry
was not only safely in the band wag.

out of the long series of Republican

which most Of them cannot. The theory

Marse Henry's dream. His dalliance
with the dons seems to have given the
great and genial Kentuckian a really
bad case of mulligrubs. AS he sees it,
things Democratic are sadly out of
joint, like sweet bells, tangled, out of
tune, and we are all going to what
Mr.. Mantalini termed "the demnition
bowwows' in a hand basket. These
are signs that Marse Henry is for
ninst w. ]. B. and all his works. For
instance, he has suggested some name
less person as an ideal presidential can
didate in such manner as to set every
body to guessing as to his identity.
It's a more brain racking puzzle than
the query, How old is Amp Indeed,
the Washington Herald has a cartoon
which assumes that Marse Henry is
his own mysterious candidate.
Not long since Hon. Isidor Rayner,
the brilliant senior senator from Mary
land, wrote a learned and sc%intillating
article for a Baltimore paper, in which
he hammers Bryan to beat the band
for his advocacy Of government owner
ship of railroads and Of the initiative
and referendum. He also takes a fall
out of Bryan for indorsing Beveridge's
child labor bill and declares that Bry-
ans ideas constitute the rankest sort of
federalism. All in all it was a bril-
liant article. 1t pleased Marse Henry
SO well that he not only republished the
entire article, handsomely displayed, on
the editorial page of the Courier-Jour-
nal, but in the same issue published a
glowing editorial eulogy more than a
column long, in which he pronounced
Senator Rayner to be "a matchless con-
stitutional lawyer and urged his read
ers, one and all, to peruse the Rayner
article most carefully and p%rayerfully.
Now, Rayner is not noted half SO much
for his bashfulness as for his brains,
but If that editorial eulogy does not
make him blush 1 miss my guess. If
not, he Is q very glutton for praise. All
this shows that Marse Henry is wab-
bling like a mar suffering from a bad
| case of locomotor ataXia. Now, the
strangest part Of it is that last year,
WueA liz gave oIydu SuCu d WclCOulc
to old Kentucky as must have warmed
the cookies Of his heart, Bryan had al
ready declared in his New York speech
in favor of government ownership of
railroads. Therefore we must con
| clude that it is his Endorsement Of the
initiative and referendum which has
alienated Marse Henry's affections, but
Jefferson advocated them.

A Whole Hoqaer.

United States Senator BOurn Of Ore
gon, who may be APPLY described as
a whole hog Roosevelt man because he
whoops it up for the president in and
out of season, has at last stumbled
on to an argument which he thinks
will catch the Republicans a-coming
and a-going. and it is the statement
that Roosevelt is the only Republican
who can beat Bryan In other words,
the Oregonian is using w. j. B. as a
bogy man with which to brighten the
Republican bread and butter brigade
into the way he wants them to go.
When the count is made Of the actual
pap suckers and of those who hope to
be pap suckers, it is a mighty host.
Such talk as Bourne's may tickle the
fancy of some folks, but it is likely to
give certain more or less intelligent
p%ersoEages that l wot of a bad case of
mulligrubs. Among these are Mr.. Sec

other Republican can turn the trick,
as he asserts, how does he figure it out
that the president can: The Repub-
lican bigwigs generally are opposed to
the president. OF course If he were
nominated they would vote for him to
keep their records straight. No doubt
they voted for General Ben Harrison
in 1892, but they managed to let him
be defeated all the same, and history
has a strange way of repeating itself
