On Wednesday, We correspondent re-
ceived a neat card announcing the
marriage of Miss Bessie Rees to Leon
ard +. Wiseman. The following is
taken from the Portland Oregonian:
IAN interesting home wedding was
solemnized at 1896 Larraberstreet on
Wednesday evening, December 2. The
contracting parties were Miss Bessie
Rees, daughter of Mr.. and Mrs. D. G.
Rees, of this city, recently from Waits
burg, WASH, and Leonard f. Wiseman,
of Bull, Idaho. The room in which
the Rev. Earl Dubois performed the
ceremony, was decorated with ferns,
flowers and eversreens. The bridal
party stood beneath an arch, from
which hung the wedding bell. The
bride wore pretty white empire gown
of dainty material and was given away
by her father. The groom was attended
by Elwood e. Hendershott Miss Fay
Hendershott played the 'Lohengrin y
wedding march. Among the presents
was a handmade silk slumber robe
made and presented by the bride S
grandmother Mrs. Willard H. Hees
who is now in her 81st year. Mr.. and
Mrs. Wiseman will make their home at
Bull, Idaho, where Mr. Wiseman is
engaged in farming and stock raising.
Mr.. Wiseman left for Portland few
weeks ago and told us that he would
come back some day and surprise us.
But his many friends did not expect
him back so soon. You can then i'm
agine their surprise when they saw
him return on Friday accompanied by
his fair Washington bride. Mr.. and
Mrs. l.. F. Wiseman will be at home to
their many friends in Bull. At pres
ent they are stopping at the Hotel
Buhi. It seems, Leonard, that you
have set an example for some of the
Bull bachelors, as the report is out
that several of them are going away
to secure unto themselves wives and
bring them back to help boost Bull.
At any rate, we will wait and see.

PURPOSES AND SCOPE
OF Work of New District Administra-
ton Of National Forests.

The institution of six district offices
in the west by the United States for
est service, big piece of work which
has just been completed, involves a
complete change in the machinery Of
this branch of the government as re-
CARDS the handling of national forests.
AS a result Of the reorganization, the
forest service force at the headquar-
tiers in Washington, has been reduced
to the general administrative officers
and to those who are conducting the
investigative work of the service out
side of the national forests.
The six districts which have the
same boundaries as the old inspec-
ton districts will be in charge of six
district forests with headquarters in
Denver, Colo. Ogden, Utah; Albuquer-
que, N. M; Missoula, Mont; San Fran
cisco, CAL, and Portland, Ore. For
nearly year preparation for the dis
trict organization has been going quiet
ly but steadily forward. This has
| thrown an additional burden upon a
force already excessively busy, but
the work has been accomplished and
accomplished on time. The transition
has been particularly remarkable be-
cause it involved no material delay in
! the transaction of national forest bust
ness while the change was going on
The forest service" said Clifford
Pinchot, United States forester, sis
| putting large part of it's work into
the field where it belongs. The or
ganization on December /, of the ma
tional forests into six districts, each in
charge of local force under district
| forester, is something we have been
de- hot
we have not done it sooner, is because
we did not have a sufficient number of
trained men to equip the districts.
1.-THE district organization will mean
| much freer use of the national for
ests by the people, because there will
not be the delay inevitable so long as
national forest business is handled
from Washington. 1t is also going to
mean that there will always be offic-
ers with the power TO make decisions,
near the ground who can look into the
facts for themselves, wherever neces-
sary, without having to decide them at
long range. l believe every man who
uses the national forests will realize
these things inside of six months"
1t is probable that there have never
been new government offices started
with their procedure so fully and de-
finitely outlined as that for the six
district offices of the forest service in
the west. 1t has been possible to start
all the offices we'll equipped with men
!. with both the training and experience
to take up the work. A large proper
ton of them are men who have form
erly been in charge Of national forests
/ and who have been promoted to higher
! positions as the direct result of theil
efficiency. All the district officers are
, familiar with western conditions
many of them were born in the ives
, and lived there before and after they
, entered the government forest work.

DO NOT FONDLE YOUR BABY.
Overhandling Causes Sickness.

A human infant, during the first few
months of it's life, is an extremely deli
cate organism, and SO it should be
handled with care, which means that
that it should be handled as seldom as
possible, says DR.. Leonard Keene
Hirshberg, in the December Delinea-
tori The young. mother who, u toi
excess Uf her pride and love, cuddles
her baby to her breast and showers
kisses upon 1t by the half-hour makes
pretty picture, it must be admitted,
but it cannot be maintained that the
little one is benefited by her caresses.
Quite to the contrary, her every kiss
helps to make 1t nervous and irritable
and prepares the way for the seeds of
disease. A baby that is fondled too
much Is baby that cries too much,
and is i'll too much.

fore to greater .exactions upon the
people. He promises, If he Is not mo-
Tested in his schemes Of aggregation
if the law against combinations is not
enforced against him, to cheaper the
things which he produces, and when
he finally succeeds in establishing his
monopoly he puts up the price of his
wares and finds many other ways of
levying tribute upon the public. If an
offended patron complains or$is upon
the point of bringing him within the
pale of the law, he forthwith takes a
hand in politics, not for the love of
country, but for the love Of power,
which he perpetually misuses. He
proceeds to direct caucuses and con-
ventions that he may make the laws
and have them interpreted $as suits
the needs of his enterprise. So intent
is he upon maintaining his. monopoly
that he becomes blind to the common
interest. The great overpowering nee
essity, from his point Of view, is in
creased dividends even at the expense
of the patient plodding masses. When
he has gained political control, it mat
ters not to him at what cost, his sway
as a dictator in his sphere of activity
is complete. All competition has been
strangled, he controls the legislative
machinery and is practically beyond
the reach of official authority.
This illustration is applicable in re-
spect of every line of trade and trans
portation that can be brought under
monopolistic influence, and when all
of these are combined so as to Jointly
control the traffic of the country then
the people have ceased to govern
themselves. The power to govern has
been usurped. Shackles have been
placed upon the liberty of speech and
action. The individual is no longer a
free agent. Thus there is a new kind
of slavery, and whoever opposes it
quarrels with his daily bread.
At the risk,of being classed as an al
armist, l assert that this very situa-
ton is upon us today. We give it
small heed, because the latitude of op-
portunity in the United States, land
is comparatively new, is still very
wide. The individual of this genera
ton does not feel the pressure from
the slowly closing tenacles Of monopo-
ly as those who are to come after him
will feel it, and he is therefore too
rome to console himself by agreeing
with the proverb that sufficient unto
the day is the evil thereof" S

MODERN SLAVERY
{Continued from page one.)

front. in the pay Of his government
But he was stirred by higher mo-
tive than the gaining of a mere livli-
hood. A great wrong against the COM
mon people was to be redressed. Free
dom for the negro meant freedom also
for the white man Of toll. 1t meant
the removal Of the shackles of the
slave that he too might become wage
earner-still competitor of the white
laborer, but on equal terms.
Thus the emancipation of the black
man had far reaching consequences.
1t ennobled and benefited labor of
every kind and class, and with this
exaltation of the toiler came new
era for our country. 1t was not I'M
til after the effects of the civil con-
flict had begun to disappear that the
nation awoke to it's great possibilities.
Prior to and during the war our people
had been contending with an internal
problem Of such serious proportions
as to divert their thoughts away from
the larger destiny of the republic, but
with the adjustment of their domestic
differences they we're enabled to look
beyond the seas and to discover the
part that they and their successors
were to play in the affairs of the
world.
With reunited people, human slav-
cry no longer hanging a dark spectre
before us, the unfolding of our nation
marvellous resources soon revealed a
wealth of great magnitude both in ex-
tent and variety. The financial and
commercial world was dazed at the
spectacle and mans cupidity was
aroused to its highest pitch. The
continent was soon spanned by rail,
and almost every part of the United
States was in Geographic touch with
the important centers Of the globe.
Thus opportunities for aggressive
work in developing our commercial
strength were greatly increased, and
it is not surprising that greed and
selfishness came to play an import
ant part in the mammoth enterprise
It is in consequence of these condi-
tons that the American people are to-
day confronted with a problem that
must surely tax their highest ingenu-
ity if it is to be properly and justly
solved. 1t is plainly apparent to all
students of our political and economic
history that African slavery is not the
only kind of human bondage. There is
a serfdom far more insidious and
quite as dangerous as that which was
