THE PRESIDENT AT SPOKANE

10 a speech at Spokane yesterday
President Taft made clear to what ex-
tent be feels himself bound to carry out
the Roosevelt conservation policies. He
advocated the following:
The federal government to preserve
and administer its timber lands. The
ststes ought to preserve their own and
compel individual owners to conform to
best methods. He said the reclamation
service has started more projects than
it can complete 10 time and that Con-
gress will be asked TO authorize $40, 000,-
600 bond issue for this purpose. Legis-
lstion will be asked for enabling the
secretary of the interior to impose re.
strictions upon the transfer of sites to
private control, 80 ss to limit the term
of the grant, to fix the rental to be
paid, and regulate the rates to be
charged. He recommended the separs1
ton of the surface of the land from the
mineral contents, and TO either lease on
q royalty system or sell coal and other
deposits to miners. This also requires
legislation by Congress before the execu-
i've can act. In conclusion the presi-
dent said:
"While the pledge to allow the Roose.
welt policies does not involve me in any
obligation to carry them out unless l
have full authority from Congress to do
so, it does require that l take every
step and exert every legitimate influence
upon Congress to subserve the purposes
indjcated.D

There Is queer character living
in the woods along the South Fork
known as dummy. He has been
called wild man as he avoids
meeting travellers, and hides when
he sees anyone coming. He pre-
tends to be dumb, and when he
can't escape meeting with one. he
refuses to talk but will write what
ever he wishes to say. He has
been in this vicinity several years
but nothing is known about him.
In the summer he goes into the
gardens of the ranchers, at night
aud purloins vegetables. He for
ages the cabins when the occupants
are absent, and has a gun with
which he procures his meat. One
winter he ate the flesh of his horses
which had starved to death. The
opinion is that he is an escaped
convict.
