Views and Lecture Feature of New
Hampshire Association Meeting.

with stereoptcon lecture on the sub
Ject OF the preservation of the National
Forests delivered by Mr.. Bristow
Adams as drawing card the New
Hampshire Association had an overflow
meeting in its hall. 80 9th street north
west last evening
Mr. Adams called attention to the waste
of the national resources He said more
forest lands are destroyed by conf1agra-
tons than by numbering, but the ordinary
numbering methods waste large quantities
of valuable timber that might be used
The heroic and devoted work done by the
foresters in government service was
graphically depicted. as we'll as the pro-
digious destruction caused by forest fires.
The White Mountain forest reservation
conserves the major part of the water
power of the New England states: the
tres are carried on more prOfitably than
in unprotected areas. and nurseries for
forests in treelesS sections of the west
were cleverly eXpounded.
The destruction of forests not only
diminiSheS the water supplies of rivers
useful for water power and navigation
and washes off the rich soil of bottom
lands, but causes harbors and navigable
channels farther downstream to be filled
with silt Poor farming methods waste
forest sections. where the farmer denudes
his hill slopes, thereby impoverishing his
bottom lands and in a few years i'm
poverishes both the hill slope and bot
tom land. so they are valueless. A story
was told of a boy sent into the woods with
plenty Of matches to find Decent cow
bell and thereby starting fire which
burned the COW. the woods. the house,
barn. wagons and farm implements.

A great many people imagine they have heart trouble when the fact is that the whole trou- ble lies in the stomach. The pains in the side around the re zion of the heart are not neces- sarily heart trouble. We sug gest that you start with the stomach and whenever you feel depression after eating or whenever your food seems to nauseate take Kodol. It will not be very long until all these ''heart pains" will disappear. Take Kodol now and until you know you are right again. There isn't any doubt about what it it will do and you will find the truth of this statement verified after you have used Kodol for a few weeks.

 Child Lost.

Last Saturday afternoon, Phe be, the five year old daughter of MT. and Mrs. Ed Harris, wander ed away from her parents, who were fishing near the Clear Creek bridge. The little one was not found until seven o'clock Sunday morning, about seven miles from the spot where she left her par ents, and after having travelled many more miles circling around. 1t was thought at first that the child had been drowned, but the cowboys of the Marley and Hart roundup, believed that she had only walked away. They took up the trail that night and by the light of a lantern tracked her over the hills, to be rewarded next morning by finding the child uniniured and well. The night was cold one and 1t IS a miracle that the girl did not perish.

1t IS found that at One-man off, ces an operator can be assigned to a twelve hour trick during any portion of the twenty four hour period. Under this arrange ment the Santa Fe has reduced the number of operators employ ed at three or four of their stat tions on this division during the past week making them one man stations instead of having them open continuously with three operators as has been the case since March 4th last. The offices affected are Wingate, Chambers, and Adamana, each station now having but one ope- ratOr.
 Freight business on the Santa Fe has suffered considerable fall ing of during the past two weeks, so much so that two crews have been taken off of the second district and three off the third, with a corresponding decrease of the number of men on the extra list, 1t being said that no less than twenty extra brakemen have been released during the past few days. It is now eXpec- ted that the mechanical depart ment will reduce the number Of regularly assigned engines in the freight service and will probably relieve some Of the extra men in that department.

first of the week inspecting opera
ton of the new stamp mill of the

he states is one of the finest he has
ever seen and that its operation is
as near perfection as possible for any
thing in the mechanical line. Ores
from the mines of properties in the
Cherry Creek district are being treat
ed in manner giving the highest sat
isfaction.
From what he saw during his in
spection of the Stuart plant and prop
critics. Mr.. Callow was thoroughly
conbinced that high success in both
mining and milling operations will
be attained. and il Is also his opin-
ion that Cherry Creek will not be
long in again reaching the prominent
position IL once held as producer
of millions in wealth in gold and
silver.

Plans for Development of Forest Ser
vice Now Being Rapidly
Worked Out.

WASHINGTON. Aug. 10.-Plans
for the forest service field headquar-
tiers which are soon to be established
in the west are being rapidly worked
out in detail. Zach headquarters
will be modelled after the Washington
Office. In all there will be six dis
trct headquarters. one located at
the present inspection district head
quarters Portland, San Francisco,
Albuquerque. Salt Lake, Denver and
Missoula. Mont. or some other points
equally well or better located for the
purpose.
AT the head of each Office there
will be district forester and an as
sistant district forester. Under
these will be experts in charge of the
various lines of work. A chief of
grazing will have charge of range
matters. chief of products will
handle the preservative treatment of
timber and strength tests and study
market conditions. A chief of lands
will look after such matters as land
examinations. The office of lands
deals with questions involving the
validity of claims asserted under the
public land laws: applications for
special use of the resources of the ma
tional forests: changes in boundaries
of forests, and the examination of
lands applied for under the act OF
June II, 1906, for agricultural set
Element.
The forest service however. never
passes on the titles themselves. That
is entirely matter for the general
land Office to decide. In the case of
applications for homesteads under the
act of June IL. 1906. the forest SER
vice is called upon to decide whether
the land is in fact more valuable for
agriculture than for timber. and II
1t is, to recommend its listing as
open to entry and patent. In the
case of claims the service ascertains
whether any facts exist which seem
to show that the claim Is not legal
one. in order that national forest
land may not be unlawfully taken up.
But 1t rests always with the land Of
fee of the interior department to
decide whether the title should or
should not be granted. The branch
of lands in the district forest service
organization does not mean any new

EXPECTING TO GAIN
IN THE SOLID SOUTH
Southern Members of Republican M
tional Committee Talk With
Much Optimism.

HOT SPRINGS. Va. Aug. 20
Through the visit here of r. Y. Oula-
han. director of the literary bureau
of the Republican national commit
tee, Mr. Taft was enabled to gain at
first hand the results of the recent
conference to Chicago which marked
the opening of the western branch
of the committee headquarters. Mem
bers of the committee from the west
and south participated in this con-
ference and their report of political
conditions In the sections of the conn-
try represented by them was given
to Mr.. Taft as decidedly encourag.
ing.
Mr.. Oulahan indicated that there
was a real element of surprise in the
optimism of southern members of
the committee. This was based. he
said. on what was regarded as re-
liable information to the effect that
Mr.. Taft's personality was a decided
and increasing element of strength to
the ticket in the south. Mr., Oula-
han said also that In the south. there
seemed to he an outspoken sentiment
that the present and continued pros
perity of that section depended on
the perpetuation of governmental pol
icies. The situation, particularly in
several of the western states. he told
Mr. Taft. was seemingly changing
for the better from the Republican
viewpoint.
