Geo. c. Dyer, brought suit against

The HAYWOOD CASE
Still Holds the Boards in Boise
Court.

The great Haywood trial at
Boise has now lasted a little more
than two months and will probably
not close for two or three weeks
more. The defense expects to
complete the introduction of its
evidence this week with the testi-
mony Of the defendant Haywood.
After that the state may prolong
the trial by the cross-examination
of Haywood and other witnesses Of
the defense and by introducing
testimony in rebuttal.
Haywood. it is said, will 60 up
on the witness stand prepared to
bare his life story. He will deny
in toto all the allegations of Orchard
connecting him with the murder
of Steunenberg, and will give his
views about counter conspiracy
to break up the Western FEEDER
alton of Miners. However, the
state has shown that money in
checks and drafts we're sent by the
officers of the federation to Orchard,
Jack Simpkins and Steve Adams,
men whom the state accuses the
federation with having employed
to commit various crimes, and on
cross examination Haywood will
be asked to explain these various
! transactions.
Several days must necessarily be
consumed by arguments of the
opposing counsel.
To many who have been watch
ing the trial closely the outcome
is problematical. Others are
swayed by their prejudices and
sympathies some believing the de-
fendent cannot escape while some
are as certain he cannot be con
victed on the charge OF conspiracy
to murder Steunenberg.

The NATIONAL FORESTS
Manual Of Public Information Con-
corning Them.

"The Use Of the National Forests. /"
publication just printed by the
Department OF Agriculture. is a brief,
clear manual of public Information as
to the forest policy OF the National
Government.
1t Is too true, as the short preface
to the public says, that "many people
do not know what National Forests
are. Others may have heard much
about them, but Ahave no idea Of
their true purpose and USE" 1t is
the object Of this publication to ex-
PLAIN just what the National forests
mean, what they are for, and how 10
use them.
In the first place, 1t is explained
how the forests are created and how
their boundaries are drawn. Next,
their direct use and value are shown
from the point OF view Of the home
seeker, the prospecLor and miner, the
user Of timber, the user Of the range.
the user OF water, aud other users of
forest resources. Third, 1t is sho yn
how the forests are intended fol use,
for production Of usable products, aud
for the establishment and mainten-
ance Of homes; how on all Of them
the timber Is protected from fire, The
water flow Is kept steady, the forage
on the range Is increased and guarded
from abuse; and how, In addition.
they serve as great pu blic Fairgrounds
and as breeding places and refuges
for game. Finally, the management
of the national forests is described.
Here IL is that great usefulness of
the forests is brought out most clearly
and strikingly; for the forests are
managed by the people 10 their own
interests, and every means is used to
meet the desires and wants OF all
Forest users half way by dealing with
them in the main directly on the
ground and 10 all cases with the Ut
most practicable dispatch and free
dom from red tape.
In word, the special interest OF
this manual lies 10 its showing that
the forest policy of the government
both in principle and in practice, IL
for the benefit of The ordinary man
for the benefit of every citizen equally
There Is still tendency to think oI
the national forests as preserves
closed to use, and to leave the public
lands exposed to unregulated indi
vidual exploitation. Where thes,
misapprehensions still prevail "Th'
Use Of the National Forests" will X
far to correct them.
The book is written by Mr.. Fred
erick E. Olmsted, whose intimat
knowledge Of conditions in the Wes
aud the policy under which tn
national forests are managed especial
~ fits him to deal With the subject

TOPICS IN WASHINGTON
The SmelteT Trust Takes Turn at Be-
ing Investigated.
WAR TALK AND THE NAVY
Taft Going to the Philippines to
Wake Up the Natives.

"ooHiHHeoh -. ~, uIy 81 uC
move of the government against
the Smelter Trust comes nearer
being a surprise than anything else
that has happened in trust busting
circles for some time. Of course,
everyone who knew anything about
the trust sit"ation knew that the
Smelter Trust needed an investiga-
ton, but there had been no init
nation that there was an investi-
cation on foot. The Smelter Trust
controls practically all of the smelt-
ing business of the United States
and reaches down into Mexico
where the bulk of the mines have
the choice of selling their ore to
the trust or keeping it on the
dump. 1t forces the railroads to
give it rebates and it crushes all
smaller concerns out of business.
There has been lot of talk in
the past week over the report that
the government was going to send
a large section of the battleship
squadron from the Atlantic to the
Pacific coast to strengthen the
naval arm there and be ready for
any suggestion on the part of the
Japanese. Itis explained that the
arrangements for their departure
had been made years ago, and that
the government had enough ships
to spare some more for the Pacific
coast. There is no immediate
prospect of our needing an in
creased naval force out there, but
the move merely indicates how the
wind blows. 1t will look a good
deal less pointed to send some
battle ships to the coast now than
it would if the situation with Japan
were really acute.
Secretary Taft this autumn viii
make another journey to Manila
This will have a twofold object
and the second half of the objec'
was only disclosed last week wher
if was suggested that he nigh
come home by way of the Trans
Siberian Railroad. The situation
in the Philippines is not altogether
satisfactory. There was a gooe
deal hoped from the election sool
to be held there, but the registra
ton shows that the Filipinos d.
not care much about voting or els'
thew do not take the offer of tn,
government to let them vote yer,
seriously. They evidently need
generation or two of training befor
they will develop into interested
citizens. The visit Of the Secre
tary will do something towar'
arousing their electoral interest.
The periodical story about graft
corruption, dissatisfaction and
few other things in the Canal Zon
has been sprung and has met wit

emphatic denial from Maj. Goe
thals, the engineer officer in charg
of the work. A denial Of this sol
from an army officer is the natur'
and correct thing if he speaks ;

WHAT P|N(HOT told THEM
Substance et Replies to Questions
Asked at Coeur d'Alene.
NATIONAL FOREST POLICY
Timber is For Sale. Agricultural
Land For Entry.

In answering questions propounded
by interested parties at Cueur d'Alene
June 80, Clifford Pinchot, United
States forester, gave out in part the
following information concerning the
national forest policy:
All timber within the national
forests for which there Is any need
can be sold. Applications to purchase
are invited. The price Of the timber
IS determined by sending a ranger to
make inspection, aud on his report
the department fixes the minimum
price. The price varies according to
location, quality, etc. The maximum
limit Of time in which to remove the
timber is five years, but u is usually
specified that timber must be re-
moved sooner. The department will
not permit a buyer to acquire a tract
Of timber and hold ~ four years for
increase 10 price, removing it all the
tlfth year. The buyer can pay for
the timber 10 installments as he re.
moves 1t. There Is no limit by law
to the extent to which purchaser
can buy, except that the department
Is careful to prevent monopoly.
The money derived from the sale OF
timber goes directly into the treasury
But considerably more than is realized
is expended each year by the govern
ment in maintaining the forests. The
sum Of $4,000 has been allotted for
Idaho this year.
The government encourages settle-
ment on such lands as can be shown
to be more valuable for agriculture
than for timber. The character OF
the land is passed on by men employ
| ed by the government.
Ii an application for entry Is not
.. allowed because the ranger makes an
adverse report, the applicant can
appeal to the head forestry depart
nent, and, il necessary, to the secre'
tary Of the agricultural department.
| Application must be made before
| making settlement. After applica
tion is made the government sends q
ranger to inspect the land, and h'
makes his report. The land Is ad
vertised for so DAYS and the applicant
is given 60 days priority over othe
settlers.
The government Is trying to pro
tect the forests Of the country 80 as Il
make them of the greatest good t,
the people. 1t encourages settlemen
on any land that Is better for agricul
ture than for timber, and 1t sells al
the timber that is ripe. 1t is simpl
conducting a supervision that viii
prevent waste aud monopoly.
Regarding what the department i
doing toward reforestiDg, Mr.. Pincho
said that 1000, 900 trees were set Ou
last year. and that it is hoped to Sc
out 20, OOO,0O0 next year. Most Il
these trees are planted on wdtershe
land not available for agriculture.
