PINCHOT WANTS LAWS
TO CHECK MONOP0 P0LIES
tBy Associated Press. ]

VIZ AsHINGTON, Oct. 1.-Un9quivo-
wv cally asserting that a monopoly
W is being formed with the OBJ
iect of obtaining possession of water
power sites of the country, Clifford
Pinchot, chief of the bureau of for
estry, who returned today from an
extended inspection of the west, de-
clared remedial legislation must be
enacted at the coming session of con-
gress If this great natural resource Is
to be preserved to the people.
The problem of how best to pre-
vent the nations water sites being
gobbled up by such combinations, Mr..
Pinchot predicted, will be one of the
biggest issues before congress. The
supposed trust is now in the torma-
tive state, Mir. PinchOt declared, and
prompt action by congress Is neces-
sary to throttle it.
Another big problem confronting
congress will be the disposition OF vast
areas of coal lands in the west, prin-
cipallv in Alaska. 1t is important that
congress should take prompt actisn
on this important matter Mr.. Pinchot
said. for the protection of the country
fuel supply and also to prevent a
monopoly in that product
ANY doubt as to whether Mr.. Pinchot
would continue to advocate the poll
cies for which he has fought 50 hard
was set at rest by him today.
Fully Determined
AS a result of his western tour, he
is as fully determined as ever to con-
tinue his policies regarding the con-
servation of the country's natural re-
sources and the great natural forest
reserves. He declared President Taft
is thoroughly imbued with the con
serVation movement, and That people
are more aroused than ever. .
Mr. Taft, Mr.. Pinchot said, has eX-
pressed himself in favor of a conser-
walton commission and added that he
(Pmchot) was always in favor of thai
suggestion.
One subject only did Mr.. Pinchot de
cline to discuss. That related to the
so-called Ballinger- Pinchot controversy
over the conservation question. That
he has no intention of relinquishing his
position as chief forester as the result
of that incident was reiterated Wher
he emphatically declared;
It am not going to resign
After declaring that there is a watel
power trust certainly in the process ol
formation" Mr.. PinchOt added
Los Angeles herald., 1909-10-02

"In my Judgment, the tendency to
consolidate which is now running
through all industrial enterprises, Will
necessarily lead the consolidation of the
water power interests exactly as 1t has
to consolidation of steel and oil inter-
ests. There has got to be legislation
on this water, power business.
President Taft has indicated his in
tention of asking congress for legisla-
tion for governing, as l understand It,,
the disposal of water power sites on
the public domain; so that the whole
water power question naturally will be
taken up before congress. Are we go
ing to give these power sites in per-
petuity is a question with which con-
gress will have to deal"
us 1t possible to head off this trust"
Mr.. Pinchot was asked.
"The government probably cannot
prevent formation of such monopoly
he replied, but it can control 1t.
regard this matter as one of the moss
important questions with which con-
gress will have to deal"
Mr.. Pinchot said he never had seen
the forests in a more satisfactory con-
dition. The personnel of the service is
of a high standard and the district
plan of organization in operation since
December last is in admirable condi-
tion.
Fostered Sentiment
Mr.. Pinchot said the recent trip of
Secretary Wilson through the west
had had an admirable effect on fos-
te1ing. conservation sentiment.
"It developed the fact" said he,
"that the people in places where the
most , complaints came from are
strongly in favor to conditions in the
forests.
Public sentiment is rapidly becoming
unanimous in favor OF the forest serV-
ice work Our receipts from the sale
Of lumber and from grazing are in
creasing. There have been fewer
fires this year than ever, and we have
them under better control
"Have you anything to say on the
question of conserVation?" Mr.. Pm
chot was asked. -.-..- =,
"Yes, 1 have" he replied. Il wish
to announce that I have come back
to continue my work in conservation
and forestry without changing IN
either policy"
Mr.. Pinchot will remain here rev

3 tGOLDFIELD, New, Oct If the
tT Goldfield excursionists from Los
W Angeles had any doubts as to
their welcome here, those doubts were
dispelled when the special train of the
Sierra Madre club drew into the Main
street depot OF the Tonopah & Tide
water railroad. Goldfeld was there
thousand strong, and there was no dis
count to the hearty welcome that was
conveyed by the hand clasps and cheers
with which the Angelenos were greeted
Friend greeted friend, and as soon as
order could be had from the chaos, the
entire party was loaded into automo-
biles and whisked away to the Goldteld
hotel. Sidney Norman, secretary OF
the Sierra Madre club, led the process
sion in the car of j. P. LOTUS, loaded
with the carnations brought along.
Main street, from the depot to the
hotel, distance of a mile, was literally
streWn with the flowers, big bunches
being thrown at the feet of every beVy
of girls and women passed.
At the hotel the Los Angeles delega-
ton was given another ovation, and
for two hours the lobby of the hosiery
was crowded with representative men
of the great Goldfeld camp. Everybody
wore a California day" badge, and the
members of the party were photo
graphed half a dozen times. For their
edification and enlightenment the
school children of the city, headed by
a drum corps and carrying dass
marched by for inspection. The parade
made. great hit and evoked the hearty
cheers of the assembled crowd, particu
larly from the members of the Los
Angeles party.
John Ryan of the Tonopah & Tide
water road had his private car hooked
onto the Sierra Madre train at Ludlow
and the boys were all his guests al
breakfast at Tecopa. From Ludlow
the train was run as a special and
made forty miles an hour to Goldfield
arriving here at 1880 o'clock After
luncheon the excursionists attended the
afternoon session of the mining con-
gress, where former Senator Moorhouse
made an eloquent speech of-Welcome.

RICHARDS PREVENTS
CENSURE OF PINCHOT

GOLDFIELD New, Oct. 1.-The
American Mining congress in the clos
ing hours of its convention here to-
day refused to adopt the report of its
forestry committee, which asked for
"An emphatic condemnation of the
practices of the forestry service of the
United States government"
The eensure, by inference, of Chief
Forester Clifford Pinchot, thus was
forestalled.
The defeat of the insurgent move
ment which threatened to cause the
adoption of the committee report was
accomplished only by the personal eX-
ertions of Judge j. H. Richards of
Idaho, retiring president of the con-
gress, who was elected yesterday
permanent honorary director.
Judge Richards threw into the bal
ance all his personal popularity and
influence. even to resigning the chair
and addressing the delegates from the
I floor when his efforts to smother the
committee report by resolution had
seemed to fail. His address was q
cool survey of the Inconsistencies of
the report, but every word was freight
( ed with deep feeling. He was second
| ed by NJ B. Johnson of Elko. New,
who protested against the effort to
\ throw insult in the face of the gov
Y ernment from which you are seeking
( aid"
1. The motion to adopt the report was
Withdrawn under the pressure brought
ITO bear.
Z The controversy on this matter has
been simmering ever since the dele
gates began to gather.
Today Is Last Day
Oscar Smith of Reno, chairman of a
state subcommittee on forestry, was
the leader of the opposition to Pinchot
Judge Richards was determined no
censuring resolution or report should
be adopted.
The matter was brought up this
morning when Chairman Smiths re-
port was read. The response of w. w.
Dyar of Washington, d. c., who ap-
peared as the personal representative
of the forestry department. did much
to smooth out affairs, but late in the
afternoon Smith moved the adoption
of the report of the general commit

Judge Richards. from his place on the
floor, sought recognition, but surren-
dered his right to allow the welcome of
the Los Angeles delegation. which ar
rived today, to proceed. At the close of
the mutual felicitation by Goldfield and
Los Angeles men he was again on his
feet and pleaded earnestly for the vot-
ing down of the motion.
IF you now adopt the report" said
Judge Richards, you stultify your
own action in that resolution. You
will do more than that. You will do
irreparablc injury to the cause for
which we are striving-harmony with
the government"
The session closed with an address

Tomorrow, after the report of the

will come to an end.

Since oxygen plays such an fmpor

animals be well supplied with fresh

the air becomes very deficient in oxy-

A YOUNG MANS SUGGESTION.

The announcement has been made
that one of the to be rebuilt churches
of NIashalltown is to fit up "a rest
room" in the basement, open to the
public six days in the week. The sup
position is that on the seventh day all
can rest-at home or in church. The
christianity. 1t suggests the ques-
tons. why not have "a rest
ROOM with toilet rooms. reading mat
ter and easy chairs and lounges, in
every church, in every town. OF
course IL will cost something, all good
things do. Commenting on this a
young man, not church member,
suggests If rich men everywhere would
oper up rest rooms on the public
streets in all of the larger towns, it
would do more to kill the saloon trade
thar all the prohibition laws ever
passed. He mentions his own expert
ence while travelling.
For the conveniences of the toilet
room, or to make an appointment with
a friend, or for any reason while wait
ing In strange town, he goes to some
salo IN, for he knows he is welcome
by only buying a glass of beer. He
says if rest rooms, open to everybody.
wers made frequent, many would be
glad to drop a nickel or dime in a
box in conspicuous place, and thus
feel that he had right to use toilet
roorns or sit down and read. He thinks
such contributions would SO far to
keeI, UP the expense necessary of run
nins. a rest room. Such rooms should,
of course, be divided into apartments,
separate for men and women.
In the big union depot at st. Paul
one of the fixtures is a penny in the
slot machine vending drink of ice
water. While an observer is
waiting his turn he may see
this machine take in 10 or
Is cents. Not twenty yards away
they don't want beer. they want some
COOL, pure water and are willing to
pay for it. And only a few feet away
is drinking water free to everybody,
still some are willing to pay cent
glas sfor sterilized ice cold water. All
of which goes with the suggestion for
church rest rooms or those opened by
some philanthropist.
