Congress several years ago passed
a law permitting the homesteading
of agricultural lands within forest
reserves, and after this had been &C.
complished the service was very re-
luctant about eliminating from forest
reserves any agricultural areas that
might be found within their borders.
Secretary Wilson is in sympathy with
the Western men who are anxious to
open up these lands to settlement.

COMPROMISE PAPER RATE

Washington-The important work
of picking up loose ends in the max
ing Of the new tariff bill has been
commenced by the senate committee
on finance. Wood pulp and print
paper have been considered, and 1t
was agreed that an amendment
The Kennewick courier. [volume] (Kennewick, Wash.) 1905-1914, 1909-04-30


In the nature of a compromise be-
tween manufacturers of print paper
and those who are demanding free
pulp and reduced duties on paper
The question of the duty on coal
has not been considered, but the
committee has decided to recon-
mend the continuance Of the present
rate of Is per cent ad valorem on
hides.
Steel men have insisted that the
rate of 1892 ton on rails is too
low to give American manufacturers
adequate protection. 1t had been
expected that an increase to $425
would be made on rails, but 1t is
now regarded as settled that the rate
adopted by the house will stand.
No action has been taken on the
crude petroleum schedule, but it Is
admitted that some protection will
be provided for the independent pro-
ducers. 1t is not likely that the so
per cent ad valorem rate desired by
the Independents will be allowed
The income tax, in connection with
the tariff, received especial atten-
ton in the senate this week. Sena-
tor Bailey, Of Texas, who has intro
duced an amendment to the bill pro-
vfding for a fiat rate of taxing in
comes, made a long speech Monday
on this feature.
1t is the expectation OF Western
senators and Representatives that
areas of agricultural lands now en-
braced within forest reserves will nj
timately be restored to the public
domain. This expectation grows out
of the fact that Secretary Wilson has
ordered the forest service to make
an examination and classification Of
the various Western reserves, setting
forth by maps and by description
those areas, now reserved. which are
purely or largely agricultural lands.
as distinguished from purely timber
lands.
The action of Secretary Wilson is
more significant than appears on it's
face. During the Roosevelt admin
istration. Secretary Wilson had no
say whatever regarding the forestry
affairs. As the situation is surveyed
and as Western senators and repre-
sentatives are consulted, the new ad-
ministration finds that there is much
complaint about the manner in
which the forest service has been ar
bitrarily handling its vast system of
reserves, and the more these COM
plants are gone into the stronger
the conviction that some restraint
should be placed upon the forestry
servics.

Prescott, Aug. 28: Special. )- Governor Sloan has received a request from Fred Carpenter, secretary to President Taft, ask ing him to prepare a program for the national chief executives visit to Arizona this fall.
 Tonight Governor Sloan will hold conference with Mayor B. Christy of Phoenix and prepare an official schedule for the presi- dent. Itis tentatively announced that MT. Taft will receive his first formal welcome inside the territory at Phoenix, where he will deliver an address. After the conclusion of his remarks, he and his party will be taken on an automobile tour of the valley.
 It is the governors plan to have Taft see as much of the valley as the time at his disposal will permit. It is probable that the first plan to spend only an hour in Phoenix will be abandoned
 Governor Sloan will join the official party of the president at Yuma and remain with Taft until he leaves the territory. As the train passes through Tempe, on the way to Phoenix, the presi- dent will make an informal ad- dress from the platform.
 1 Yesterday afternoon the gover- nor received the verbal resigna- tion of Sims Ely from the Ari- zona railway commission. No announcement has been made as to who Ely's successoa will be, but there is a persistent rumor that W. P. McNair of Douglas will be the man. McNair was a candidate for place on the con- mission before the appoint ment of Ely, Bicknell and Stoneman.

SALT LAKE. Jan. 23.-Jnst at a
time when Manager Mcintosh is anx-
ious to MAXI record for the Ohio
Copper Co. in development work he
is greatly delayed for lack of power.
The Ohio company is supplied with
electric current by the Telluride
Power Co. and recent storms have
interfered with the transmission of

going in the raise TO connect with the
upper workings.
1--WE are very anxious to get the
hole through from the tunnel level TO
the shaft" said Mr. Mcintosh. Our
men are working in the raise, about
200 feet from the tunnel level, and
they must have air. The power has
been very irregular and the men at
times sit wsi.iag for the power TO be
turned on until they are compelled
to go out into the tunnel TO get
Whit of fresh ozone. All this Is de-
laying our operations at time when
we are anxious To have the connec-
lions completed, and 10 give every
part Of the workings good ventila-
ton.
II have come to the conclusion
that Manager Jackling of the Utah
Copper Co. did very wise thing
when he installed his own power
plant for the mine and mammoth
milling plant. | can see how a
great milling plant would be prae-
tically helpless with the sort of SER
vice we are getting, and naturally
these delays would mean consid-
cradle loss TO them in curtailing their
production each month"
Adequate power is an all import
ant question for the Ohio Copper Co.
to solve. II one is to judge from the
company's present situation. The
Tintic Smelling Co. had a bitter ex-
perience with it's electric power, and,
after a considerable loss of time and
money. 1t was fortified against fur
