The attendance at the Alaska -Yu
kon Pacific Exposition having passed
the half million mark at the end of
the first three weeks means that the
undertaking is an assured success
from a financial standpoint. 1t is
the experience of all fairs that the
first month has the fewest visitors, so
that July, August, September and
October ahead, it is estimated that
between 200, 600 and 5.COO.O 900 per-
sons will pass the gates. The big
travel from the East will begin next
month. and according to railroad
men, it is going to be something
unprecedented. Every one is boost
ing for the A Y-P. 1t is a remarkable
fact that all mediums of publicity
have sounded its praises. The newspa
pers, periodicals and magazines are
giving 1t space and crying for more
stories and pictues. The exploitation

TO GIVE FOREST FIRE STATISTICS

State officials. associations. and in
diyiduals will cooperate with the
United States Forest Service in an at
tempt to get accurate records of all
fire losses in Washington aud Oregon
this summer. The Forest Service
will compile report showing by
counties. the area burned over of
merchantable tim her. non merchant
able timber. and cut over land; the
quantity and value of the timber de-
stroyed, and the cost of fighting the
fires. In this way the Federal and
State Governments as we'll as the pub
lie will be enabled to obtain at once
systematic information concerning all
fire losses in these states.
Heretofore, this information has
been only partially collected. The
Forest Service has secured compre-
hensive reports from rangers on the
National Forests, but from no other
source. The State Boards of Forest
~ in Oregon and Washington have
had reports from their wardens, but
many regions had no wardeDs The
State and Government statistics we're
in different form and not brought to-
gether. Consequently. although those
interested in the subject know in a
general way that fire entails an enor-
nous loss to the community every
year, they have been unable to back
their arguments for remedial action
with any definite proof.
District Forester e. T. Allen is
receiving the active help of the Ore
gon Conservation Association. the
Oregon State Board of Forestery, and
the Washington Forest Fire Associa-
tion in organizing the work. The
two latter have revised their report
forms to bring out the same facts re
garding all fires. The Oregon Con-
servation Association is canvassing
the state to secure suitable men to act
as fire wardens and report on fires in
their territory and presents their
names to the State Board for appoint
ment. 1t will also send each man
post card reminder every two weeks,
with return card on which he will
enter a few main facts about the fire.
The Washington Forest Fire Associa
tion will collect reports from it's
rangers and from other correspondents
where it has no rangers. The Forest
Service will furnish fIanked envelopes
for mailing in the reports. and com
pile the results. The Washington
State Board of Forestry has not made
any agreement as yet. but will I'M
doubtedly furnish all the aid it eau.
Every lum herman, or any one else
who is interested in preventing for
est fires. will see the advantage in
bringing this information before the
public and can be of great assistance
by reporting fires in his vicinity.
Forms will be furnished on applica
tion to the Secretary of the Oregon
State Board of Forestry. or. in Wash
ington. to the Washington Forest
Fire Association.

NORTH GLOBE FIRE LADD|ES FORM
 COMPANY
OFFICERS ELECTED AND EIGH. TEEN APPLICATIONS FOR
 MEMBERSHIP TAKEN

For the purpose of giving the north end of town better fire protection than it has had in the past, the North Globe Division Fire company was formed, at a meeting of citizens of that district, held at Maurei hair Sunday afternoon.
 A. Maurel was chosen president, with w. s. Crowe secretary, George Duffy chief, Fred Wills assistant chief, B. Barnetti foreman, and William Mill Williams captain.
 Eighteen volunteers have already signed the membership roll and it is probable that others will join in the near future.
 The matter of applying to the council for funds to secure hall was discussed, but no formal action was taken.
 A discussion of the different causes of fires formed an entertaining topic and was taken up at length. It is probable that the new company will have social as well as business side, when it is thoroughly organized. They will meet the first and third Mondays of each month at Maurel hall.

DEMAND FUR STOCKS FEEBLE; PRICES
 ARE LOWER
HIGHER PRICE or COPPER HAS LITTLE EFFECT ON ACTION
 OF INDUSTRIALS

NEW YORK, June 7.--The spccu- lative appetite for stocks lost some of its zest today, to judge by the irregular and uncertain movement of prices and a sharp break at the close.
 There was an animated excursion of new orders to buy from the outside, such as are looked for, especially on Monday morning during the progress of speculative campaign, and prices as usual were opened as high as possible, with the benevolent intent towards those having stocks to sell rather than towards early buyers.
 Rumors of coming dividend increases played prominent part in the show of strength of special stocks.
 From the southwest came reports that the demand for currency was beginning to stir in preparation for moving the coming crops. The hardening of dis count rates abroad is beginning to prove perceptible drag on speculative movements there. An advance in the price of copper metal failed to benefit the copper industrials.
 Bonds irregular. Total sales s7,736,- 900. United States bonds unchanged.
