Timber Enough Growing Evs1y v.ar
To Justify iincrease Of One Hun

gut Of Paper Mills Free Trade
Would Drive Industry To Canada.

New York, Oct. 1.-THE American
Economist las the following concern
ing the yelled attempt of the free trad
ers to attack the paper industry in the
United States and force 1t to leave this
country and go to Canada:
Selling Product Below Cost.
Solicitude for the preservation of the
American forests Is one of the chief
reasons urged for the removal of the
tariff on print paper and wood pulp.
Care Is taken by the advocates Of
free trade IN these articles to keep in
the background as far as possible the
stronger motive, namely, that of relief
to certain publishers of newspapers
who are selling their own products
below cost.
Anxiety and Anxiety.
Anxiety concerning the destruction
IT American forests Is praiseworthy
and patriotic, while anxiety for profit
en- the output of printed newspapers
might seem not quite so aitru.stic.
Dealing, then, with the proposition
hat the consumption OF wood for pulp
making threatens to denuie American
timber lands, it is worth while to get
at the truth of this matter.
Truth OF the Matter.
The truth seems to be that this anx-
iety for the integrity of the American
forests is very largely misplaced and
u~nwarranted.
The Drain upon our timber supply
involved in the production of wood
pulp turns out upon investigation to
10 pracl.ca iy no drain at all.
Tho Wooded Area.
Prot. Henry Gannett, of the United
States geological survey, In the bull
letin on lumber and timber products
for 1905, estimates the wooded area
of the United States at over 1000, 900
square miles, which IS about one-third
Of the total land area Of the country.
Prof. Gannett estimates on this
wooded area a stand Of over $500, 900,
100000 feet of merchantable timber, to
"a ynothlng Of the vast amount Of un-
-merchantable timber.
Yield Of Good Timber.
Tire annual growth at 8 per cent
would yield $4,000, 100000 feet Of mer-
chantable timber.
The pulp wood cut In the United
States In 1906 amounted to- about l.
soc, 900, 900 feet, which L. two per cent

IS THE WAR ON CRIME
A FAILURE?

AFTER AN EXHAUSTIVE IN.
CURRY INTO THE SYSTEM OF
PUNISHMENT WILL TELL
WHY SHE BELIEVES 1T is.

Can the scales of Justice as now
balanced have any other effect than
to aggravate assault on social or
der?"
This is only one of the startling
questions asked by Jessie NJ. Part
Ion, who has just concluded a tour
of personal inquiry into prison
management in the United States
for The Press.
Her views are those of woman.
She expresses the emotions that
existing methods of handling the
great crime problem arouse in the
breast of a woman. Her delicate
sense of mercy, as well as of fun
damental right and justice, thrills
at the heartlessness with which
hope of a future is denied the I'M
fortunate wrongdoer, hope which
is denied in the name of the state.
All over this broad land taxpay-
ers give out good money and con-
tent themselves with the reflection
that it is all sacrificed for the bene-
fit of society.
But is it?

The resolution pledges the inter

About 70 delegates were in at

TWO DIE OVER
WOMAN
GAMBLER AND CAPITALIST
FIGHT DUEL IN SAN FRAN
CISCO SALOON BECAUSE
FORMERS WIFE LIKED LAT.
TER,S AUTOMOBILE.

SAN FRANCISCO. Jan. 8.-A
duel to the death was fought late
yesterday afternoon in rear room
of a Sansome st. saloon between
Frank Cochran, an old gambler,
and Frank Bell, young capitalist.
Six shots were exchanged and
Cochran stumbled out of the room
and fell dead in the bartender's
arms, while Bell was found mortal
ly wounded, lying under table.
The men are supposed to have
fought because of Bells alleged
attentions to the beautiful wife of
Cochran. Jesse Duryea, Bells
chaufuer, states that the two men
met outside the saloon and decided
to enter the place to talk over diff
ferences. When they entered the
room Bell was heard to say:
you put your hands on the table
and I'll do the same"
An instant later firing began.
Bell and Cochran were from Sc
attic. Cochran ran a faro table at
Juneau and there Bell met the
woman who said she was Ella
Cochran. Later Cochran went to
Goldfield and Mrs. Cochran came
here. Later he returned to Seat
tie and there heard story connect
ing Bells name with his wife. He
came to San Francisco to kill Bell
and the effort resulted in death for
himself 1t Is said that Bells auto

society being safeguarded? Over
$500, 100000 is spent annually to
punish and diminish crime. Is this
vast sum being properly expended
to discourage crime, to eradicate
the great social disease?
Miss partition doubts it. She has
spent weeks in investigating the
criminal problem. She has visited
many cities and their courts and
prisons, and she shudders at the
futility of the systems employed;
the ever multiplying hopelessness
of results, as she reports. She
says it is all wrong; that the idea
is wrong. 1t is her viewpoint, but
she has heard with her own ears
and she has seen with her own
eyes.
1t was at considerable sacrifice

She has stified repugnance of wit
Messing human suffering to stay out
sessions of police courts. She has
steeled herself to visit jails and
prisons And she has come back
shocked at the revelations. Her
verdict upon the battle with crime
is that it is a failure.
She will tell you why.
But Miss Martlon does not de-
spond. She sees promise in a re-
form of methods. But for this she
would not write of it. She will en-
deavor to point out the mistake in
a series of articles for The Press,
which begin tomorrow.
Those who read these articles
can participate in the discoveries
which Miss partition has made, and
weigh the Christian obligation i'm
posed upon society in very grave

CONTRACTORS
SEEK GUARDS

SEATTLE, Jan. S.-The contrac-
tors on the First M. E. church, the
first building in the city on which
the open shop policy was adopted,
have asked the police department
to station a policeman at the build
ing to keep order.
About 10 nonunion men went to
work on the building in various
capacities, and number of the
striking union men stood about the
sidewalks, but offered no interfer-
ence of any kind.
The carpenters on the Transfer
company barns on First av. s.,
have gone out on sympathetic
strike. Both contracts are held by
e. j. Rounds & Co. A few non
union men were placed at work
this morning on this job.
The Building Trades assembly
has named a committee on pub
licity and a general meeting or Or
ganized labor has been called for
tonight, at which time the entire
situation will be discussed. Of
fetal notice has been sent to all OF
the unions of this meeting, and a
full attendance of all branches of
union labor has been requested.
An effort will also be made to
hold a conference with the direct
ors of the aska-Yukon-Pacific ex-
position in order to adjust the diff
ferences between the fair manage
ment and organized labor, which
resulted in the exposition being
placed on the unfair list.
