DRAWING
FOR LANDS

Public drawing of $4,000
acres of land in the Pahvmt
valley of Utah will take place on
September 3S, under the direc-
ton of the state land board and
the Oasis Lend 4 Irrigation
Company, and ii is expected
that there will be an immense
crowd at the opening.
The drawing will be made in the
manner adopted at Twin Falls, Ida.
Each individual may take 1G0 acres
of the land, or sections of 40, GO or
so acres; but before the drawing
each person will be required to state
how much land he will take and
make deposit of 25 cents on each
acre of land. This will be one-half
of the price of the land, as the state
land board has fixed the price at so
cents an acre.
The land board will also fix the
charge which the Oasis company is
to make for water. The company
has built a costly irrigation system
for the reclamation of the Pahvant
valley lands.
President Chambers of the Oasis
company says that he expects TO see
much of the land under cultivation
next year. as some of the settlers
will Immediately after the drawing
commence preparations for the put
ting in of crops.

FIRES IN THE ADIRONDACKS
Forest Destruction the Result OF
Greed, stupidity and Care
l~essness."

In a report to the New York Upstate
Public Service commission. COMMISSIONS
Thomas NJ. Osborne declares that the dust
and ashes of San Pierre, which he saw in
his visit to Martinique two years after
Mount Pelee's eruption, were less painful
than the scenes he witnessed in a tour Of
inspection of the Adirondacks, seeking in
formation as 10 the causes of forest fires.
There it was a terrific Outbreak of ma
ture, which nothing could ave foreseen or
prevented; here the ruin and destruction
were the result of greed. stupidity and care
lessness of men" The sight of the desola-
ton and destruction on Long Lake West
Is especially referred to as an Illustration
Of the conditions he found.
The journey was undertaken for the pur-
pose OF a preliminary survey Of the district
through which the forest fires have been
raging and are still dangerous; and to as
certain from observation the extent of dam
age for which the railroads are RESPONSE
BILE. Commissioners Osborne says that these
points may be said TO be admitted by every
one:
I. The present seasons fires are the most
disastrous ever known except those Of 1903.
2. A large number OF these fires have
started along the railroad tracks and nave
undoubtedly been caused by sparks from
the engine.
8 Some fires. and some OF them serious

employed in an official capacity in a rail-
and of considerable extent, have ariseL
away from the railroads and for which
they cannot be held responsible.
4. In order to protect the forests in the
future some more efficient measures mus
be taken by the railroads than those now
in use.
II may say for my own part that l
gravely question whether the damage of
this year may not prove to be greater
than that of 1903" says Mr.. Osborne. AT
that time large tracts of timber were de-
stroyed, but 1t was in the spring OF the
year and the ground was not so dry as
during these present fires, which nave to
a large extent burned over the same area,
destroying a great deal of the spongy,
messy earth, the floor of the forest. which
nourishes the vegetation and which would
have enabled the trees to grow up again
within a generation or so. There are now
large tracts burned down to the bare rock
not only the forests, but the foundation of
the forest gone. That can probably never
be replaced.
or to intimate that the whole or even the
greatest part Of the Adlrondacks is
wrecked. Fortunately it is not so bad as
that. But 1t is undeniable that a vast ter
ritory has been seriously. and a great deal
of 1t irretr!evably. damaged.
"As a result of my examinations I rec
ommend to the commission that everything
in its power should be done to prevent
future destruction, and to protect what re-

WHAT A DIFFERENCE NOW
News OF Adams Election, by
Courier, Disrupted Church
Service,

The last days of the presidential cam
paign have brought to one of Boston's "Ol
Schoolboys" vivid recollections Of the stores
he heard in young days of the election Of
John Quincy Adams and the dramatic man
ner in which, by courier, the news from
Washington disrupted a church service in
Quincy.
The letter is as follows;
Whom shall we have for president the
next four years? The transition from one
set of rulers 10 another is often attended
with incidents and peculiarities sometimes
amusing. For the past a little more than
100 years, with only one exception, the peo-
pie have chosen the electors to decide who
shall be president; that exception was the
case of join Quincy Adams in the year
1924. who was chosen by the house of rep
resentatives, there being no choice by the
people, OF the electoral votes John Quincy
Adams had eighty-four, Andrew Jackson
had niE~ety-nine, w. II. Crawford had forty
one and Henry Clay thirty-seven. Mr..
Adams was elected by the states votes
twenty-five states-and Mr.. Adams had
more than half and was declared TO be
constitutionally elected president Of the
United States. There was great rejoicing
among the friends of Mr.. Adams, especially
among the townspeOple OF The town OF
Quincy. AT that early day there were nc
railroads, no telephones. or telegraphs. II
took many days and weeks to bring news
from Washington, and so anxious were this
