COYOTE PROOF FENCE
 FOR FOREST RANGES
Result of Experiments in the North west.

Fencing the range to protect sheep from the attacks of predatory animals has met with excellent results in the Wallowa national forest, Oregon. The problem was to find a strong fence that would make the sheep secure, even without the care of a herder.
 The chosen fence, which is built of woven wire with barbed wire on the top, has kept out all the minor animals, such as wild cats, lynxes and coyotes, but has not withstood the attacks of the grizzlies, which are apparently able to pass through it with little trouble.
 Sheep numbering 2,200 head were placed in the enclosure with their lambs upon June 20 and have been all lowed to graze at their free will with no attention whatever from any herder. They have done splendidly and as far as the observation of those in charge of the experiment goes. a given area grazed by sheep under such conditions will carry more sheep per acre than one grazed un- der the charge of a herder
 Tracks along the fence show that predatory animals come to the fence constantly and follow it around but, with the exception of the bears, do not seem able to enter.
 The hunter employed by the service for hunting predatory animals in the vicinity of this fenced enclosure has killed no less than six large grizzlies this season, besides numerous other animals of the predatory class.
 The results of this experiment are so satisfactory thus far that private individuals are profiting by it. Mir J. w. Emmons of Troy, Oregon, has a large area of private land fenced with a special wire fence in which he has this season lambed a herd of 670 ewes without a herder's care and with very little attention and great success. MT. Emmons is extending his fence, for he finds that it pays.
 Careful record will be kept. of the weights of lambs raised inside this fence with view of comparing them with the same grade of lambs raised outside the fence on the same class of range so that any gains or losses in weight and growth may be deter mined.

With a due appreciation of the inn portance of politics, The Republican suggests that there are two other matters of the fall season that will need a lot of attention. One is the Albuquerque interstate fair and irri- gation congress and the other is the Arizona territorial fair. Each is the biggest event of its kind that ever occurred in the southwest and each is fraught with great opportunities for Arizona.

FINDING USES FOR
 DEAD FOREST TIMBER
University of Colorado Preparing to Make Useful Investigation.

! The University of Colorado will soon have a completely equipped tim Der testing laboratory at Boulder, Col orado. Machines for this laboratory have been ordered and delivery has
 been promised during August The first problem taken up will probably be an investigation of the relative strength of dead and fire-killed tim Der as compared with that of timber cut while still growing.
 Two testing machines will be in stalled, the larger one capable of eX- erting a pressure of 200,000 pounds, and the smaller one capable of eX- erting a pressure of 30,O0O pounds. Both of these machines are of the latest design and each is driven by a separate motor. In addition to the testing machines, the laboratory equipment will include a power driv- en saw and planer for preparing the test specimens from the timber as it is delivered at the laboratory.
 As soon as the machinery reaches Boulder the forest service will detail an engineer to put the laboratory in running order and carry on the work of the station.
 At the present time there is a large amount of fire-killed timber in Colo rado and the adjoining states, and very little definite information exists as to its suitability for structural purposes. If such timber has suffi- cient strength, large quantities of ma terial which is now considered of lit tie value will find useful service.
 Besides being the headquarters for a representative of the forest service who will have general charge of such work as relates to the utilization of wood in Colorado and some of the ad iOiDiDp states

president?
The correspondence which passed
between Roosevelt and Taft some
years ago has been published with a
view to strengthening the candidate
in the eyes of the people, but it real
ly should have the opposite effect,
since II Is shown that this business
was hat ed up some years ago and
that the nominaI ion Of Taft was
merely the carrying out OF plan
which have been laid, that Roosevelt
has sought to establish a dictatorship
and that Taft Is the kind of man
who can be pulled about just a. the

"SKEERED" AGAIN

The Republican state committee de-
cided that Bryan had abandoned the
state of Ohio and was going to de-
vote his time exclusively to other
territory, so they trotted Taft out for
a three days tour of the state wi h
his prosperity speech. Al ! went
well until after Taft had left the
state and IT was determined that Mr.
Bryan should follow him and in one
day upset all of the stakes that It
had taken Taft three days toset.
Then there was CONSERVATION in the
Republican camp and they have net
yet fully decided what they are going
20 do to counteract it,
Mr.. Bryans determination to cover
the territory In one day that Taft
took three days to cover Is charac-
teristlc of the man. He Is capable
Of doing in one day what It takes

SOMETHING WRONG

Mrs. John A. Logan, the wife CT
the late general who won fame dur
ing the Civil war, and woman who
is \"obably better acquainted with
Washington and its ways than any
other one of her sex, accuses Presi-
dent Roosevelt and Judge Taft of nav
ing had hand in the marital trou-
bles OF her daughter. Mrs, Mary Log
an Tucker, had her huband, Colonel
Tucker, until recently chief pay
master OF the department. OF the
lakes. arrested for desertion. Mrs.
Logan declares that both President
Roosevelt tand Judge Taft were aware
of the conduct OF Colonel Tucker
while he was stationed in the Phil
ippines and that they tried to white
wash his record and refused TO per-
mil the war department 10 take any
action in the matter. They abso-
luetly refused to consider charge s
which were made against the colonel
and referred the women to the courts
for redress.
President Roosevelt has been ac-
cused of a great many things, some
OF which are true and some are not,
but this is the first time that he has
been accused of having refused to
consider the charges against an army
officer when the accusations we, e
made by the wife OF that officer. Most
certainly this action was not in line
with the policy which he pursued in
the Brownsville case wnen he dis
charged whole battalion Of colored
troops because they were suspicloned
OF having had hand in shooting up
the town.
Mrs John A. Logan concludes her
charges against President Roosevelt
and Judge Taft with the statement
that there is something materially
wrong in Washington, and ihe people
have come to the same conclusion.
There is something wrong at Wash
ington and now is the time to make
change by eleeting william Jen-

THOSE AMENDMENTS

The makeup of the ballot which
will be given to the voter on No
vember 3rd is peculiar this year.
Prior 10 this year, any questions
which have been submitted TO the
people, in the way of constitutional
amendments have been pleced in a
column by themselves on the right
hand side of the ballot, or have
been added on at the bottom OF
the ticket of the party which has
endorsed the proposed amendment.
This year, however, there has been
change end a very radical one.
The three constitutional amendments
proposed have been placed in the
first column on the ticket, with no
emblem Of any kind above them
and no circle at the head OF the
amendment ticket, where a mark can
be made and a vote cast in that
manner. The tx" must be made in
the column to the left of each
amendment to vote either for or
against H. There are two spaces
for each amendment, one for voting
in favor and the other for voting
against. Eech voter should be care
iul, after voting for the candidates
whom he desires to be elected, to
go over into the first column ana
vote either for or against the pro-
posed amendments, separately. They
cannot be punched together. Three
marks must be made, one for each
amendment.
In order TO vote intellleently upon
these propositions, the voters should
post up on the subjects. One amend.
ment proposes 10 give to the legis-
lature the right to classify property
for taxation. This provision is
sought for the purpose OF making
some allowance in the provisions for
taxation of moneys upon deposit
Another amendment provides for the

p ULLS HIM ABOUT
BY HIS NOSE

The Republicans are now publishing
correspondence to show that Judge
Taft never had any desire to be.
come president of the United States
but that his desires lay in the drec-
ton of the bench of the Supreme
court The letters which are said to
have passed between President Roos-
evelt and Judge Taft, when he was
secretary of war are being published
in an effort TO show that Taft has
played the part of a martyr and has
given up his aspirations TO sit upon
the bench and wear the wig Of the
Supreme court because he thought
that the nation needed saving and
that he was the man to do the saw
ing stunt. The correspondence
shows that President Roosevelt has
brought pressure ~ bear upon Taft
for the past few years to induce him
10 accept the nomination.
The reason for all of this does not
appear very clear. The people four
years ago elected Roosevelt presi-
dent of the country FOR one full
term, after he had served al
most one term, filling the unexpired
term of the late President Mckinley.
There was a great clamor for the re-
nomination of Roosevelt this fall
and II the Chicago convention had
been given half a chance 1t would
have named him as the standard
bearer. Judging from the results Of
the last election, there is not much
doubt that Roosevelt would have been
elected If he had been nominated.
lie chose rather to retire from the
office, but he has endeavored to die.
tate who his successor shall be. The
letters which have just been pub
this idea of setting up a dictatorship,
with himself as dictator entered his
head and began sitting up stakes for
accomplishing that end. One point
which the correspondence does not
make clear and which the p,ople
would doubtlessly like to have a lit
lie light upon, is whether or not this
plan TO elect Taft for eight years
and then have him dictate the cleo
tion OF Roosevelt, for another eight
years, as disclosed by the presidents s
son-in-law, was discussed along about
the same time that the president
conceived the idea of debating who
should succeed him.
Almost every man has his ideal.
He strives to accomplish that and
refuses to allow other things to come
An his way TO prevent. Judge Taft's
ideal was a seat upon the Supreme
bench, probably the position of chief
justice, but President Roosevelt
brought so much pressure to bear up
on him that he abandoned that desire
and accepted the thing which Roose
Belt dictated. Therein his weakness

can swerve from his life's pur-
pose is 1t not likely that even though
he is elected TO the presidency,
Roosevelt will hold such a power
over him that he will do just as
Roosevelt says without regard to the
wishes or welfare of the people? Is
