Burning SIashines

The proposed law for the proven
ton of forest fires, contains two
provisions which we believe will be
very detrimental to the lumber in
dustry of this state; we refer to the
clause requiring the piling and burn
ing of slash and to the clause max
ing the fine for failure to burn, a
lien on the product and the land.
In regard to the latter clause it is
very evident that log buyers cannot
keep track of whether the seller has
complied with the law, and its pas
sage would lead to endless confusion.
The matter is so plain that we be-
lieve the lien feature, anyway so far
as it relates to products, will be
dropped.
The section relating to the burn
ing slash, so far as it relates to hard
wood and hemlock, does not appear
to be practical, at least under con-
ditions such as we have in this sec
ton of the state We are forced
to the conclusion that the figures
given by the state forester, that
the cost of piling and burning slash
does not exceed 80 cents per NJ feet
were not determined under condi-
tons like ours. They may be all
right in pine slashings or where the
cordwood and other by-produots
can be pro6tably worked up and
sold. In our hardwood and hem
lock, where it win take say five
trees to make 4 thousand feet, the
cost of piling brush, which is nearly
all in the tops, must exceed the
cost of cutting, saving and skidding
combined.
The state forester says the law
means that only the most inflam-
mable parts are to be burned, but
the law says the brush is to be piled
and burned. We asg, who is to
construe the meaning of the law
liz our opinion the law viii put an
extra cost on the logger, which
must result either in an increase in
the price of lumber, or material
drop in stumpage prices.
Another thing is that there is
danger of fire in hardwood siashings,
and the refuse soon rots down.
With an extremely dry season, like
we had last year, fire viii run any
where, if it gets started, whether
the slashings have been burned or
not.

The Sure Remedy"

When President Roosevelt first set
out to shackle greed and cunning, he
told congress that he had found way
10 curb the trusts. "The sure remedy
of publicity he said, would prove a
cure for monopoly ills. And congress
provided for commissioner of corpor-
ations With power to probe the trusts
and give publicity to the abuses discov-
cred In pursuance with the law an
army of ofliceholders has been en-
ployed and heavy drain placed upon
the treasury, but there has been no
publicity and the ills that the "sure
remedy" was designed to cure still en-
dure.
Mr. Roosevelt has lost faith in pub
licity. When the senate asked the at
torney general to inform it whether or
not he had taken any action on the
merging of the Tennessee Coal d Iron
company with the steel trust, the pres
ident forbade him to speak, and adj
dressing the senate told it that it was
none of its business-that he had auth
orized the steel trust to absorb its rival
and the attorney general was answer
able only to the executive. Publicity
has lost its charm Milwaukee News.

senblishsd weekly and entered at the Post Office
at Wausau 8 second class matter.

AT a meeting held at the court house
last Wednesday evening, at which time
matters relative to the amendment of
the state game laws were discussed,
among the resolutions passed was the
following
That the iaw prohibiting the dump
ing of mill refuse in the inland waters
of the state, be extended to apply to
the Wisconsin river" g ~ 49,
This is matter which should certain
ly receive the attention of the legisla-
ture. Originally the Wisconsin river
was one of the finest fishing streams in
the state teeming with muscallonge,
bass and pike. The saw mill refuse and
latterly the pulp mill refuse dumped in
the river has practically exterminated
the fish. 1t was ridiculous to pass laws
for the protection of fish and at the
same time allow this wholesale exter-
mination by our manufacturing plants.
Such rank class legislation must arouse
a spirit OF hostility among the masses
of the people to the fishing and game
laws as g whole. In order to enforce a
law you must have the sentiment of the
community back of it, This you can
never have when the poor settler, fish
ing on his own land with hook and line,
is fined with minimum fine of $500
and costs for fishing out of season,
while the mill man is permitted TO ex-
terminate the fish and destroy the
beauty of the river by the dumpage of
refuse. If this matter is not looked
after in the game laws, our representa-
tives in the legislature should be called
on to see that the law is changed as
called for in the resolution as quoted.

HIGH SCHOOL NOTES.
NAUsAU 26, MERRILL 49,

Wausau started the basket ball season
with victory over the Merrill team in
a well played game The team played
hard and fast and if the boys do them
selves justice in all the following games
the season will surely be success.
The victory Friday night was the re-
suit of one weeks nard practice. What
the team can do with few more weeks
of the same kind of work remains to be
seen, but Wausau ought to oe able TO do
more than hold her own with any of the
valley teams.
The game Friday night was played in
Merrill. The floor was in fine condition
but the baskets and ball We're in poor
shape, which partially accounts for the
small number of points that Wausau
scored.
The game was fairly rough and a
large number of fouls were called on
both teams. The basket shooting on
both sides was poor The bounding
boards and the ball were the cause of
Wausau's low score, but the Merrill
team were accustomed to the conditions
and should have played better game
The only criticism that can be offered
is that the guards allowed the Merrill
forwards too many open shots. This,
however, was due to their eagerness to
get into the actual play and the fault
should be easily overcome.

products and also on the land.
These two sections met the united
opposition of every lumbermen pres
emit. Mr.. Grifith's figures, as to
the cost of piling and burning slash,
were challenged on all sides.
Mr.. Robbins put the cost of burn
ing hardwood slashings at 50 90 per
NJ feet and S. NJ. Quaw at & 90. ].
A. Underwood thought hardwood
slashings could not be burned over.
Mr.. Griffith explained that the
law did not contemplate the burn
ing of butts and the big crotches of
birch and other trees, but only the
parts easily infiammable.
H. G. Stewart called his attention
to the clause that brush must be
piled and burned and thought the
law could be construed to mean the
piling of most of the refuse.
Ben Heinemann proposed to turn
over an so of land, log it and let the
state pile and burn the brush and
see what the cost was.
Peace maker Jones failed in lis
efforts for harmony. The great
harmonizer, in whose hands fighting
councils. legislatures and mass meet
ingS have been as putty, whose
appeals have moulded fighting fac
tons into harmonious armies, for
once met the usual fate of the peace
maker. for on his devoted head fell
the wrath of the lumbermen.

as no decision had been reached, it
was decided that meeting of the

bermens associations to meet at
