PLAN DEATH OF
OPTION Bill,
opponents in Majority May Let
Bill Die in Committee

BolSE' Idaho. Jan. 26.-when
the local option bill comes before the
house today it will be referred hack
10 the committees on judiciary and
privileges and elections that framed
IT, perhaps to die. The prediction is
based on the action of a caucus last
night in which republicans Of the
house divided into radical and con-
sentative factions. The conserva-
ives, opposed to the local option bill
and possibly local option in any form,
are in the majority. A permanent
Organization was formed. The radicals
will receive scant consideration.
]. o. Webster of Fremont county
moved that c. A. Foresman, of Neg
Perez county, be made permanent
chairman, but McCutcheon strenu-
ously objected on the ground that at
the last meeting it was decided that
there should be no permanent organ
ization and future meetings should be
called by petitions signed by at least
% members. Webster withdrew his
motion and substituted another to the
effect that the caucus should be per-
manent and that C. A. Foresman
should be the permanent chairman.
His motion was carried, but not until
Story, of Ada county had declared
that the whole plan was formulated
week ago in room IL of the Over
land building by a few men and that

mated there it was done to properly
direct party action.
Before the motion could be put,
Shaw moved an adjournment and lost
by a vote of % to IT. Another at
tempt was made to destroy the organ
ization by Evans of ONEIDA county,
who moved to adjourn last night, but
that motion was also lost. Fores-
man was elected permanent chairman
by reclamation.

Legislative Investigation Creates
Hot Fight in Senate

OLYMPIA, Jan. 26.-The morning
session of the senate was the scene of
two OF the hottest debates that have

when Senator Alexander Poison, of

a similar committee from the house
to investigate the judges Of the su-
preme court. all state ofieials. and
the members Of the legislature. The
bill is an outcome OF the Root-Gor-
don investigation and as 1t involved
the integrity Of the ofieals to be in
vestigated 1t provoked a heated dis
cussion among the members. After
this debate had been disposed of 4
hot fight came up over the anti-sa-
loon league local option bill which
finally resulted in a motion sending il

INCREASE IN TIMBER CUT
Some Figures ON Forest Reserve Pro-
ducts.

ducts.
WASHINGTON Jan. 26.-Uncle
Sans national forests yielded an in
crease OF 1O2 per cent in timber last
year over the record for 1907. Civ
Ing returns OF ss4s,O27.24 to the
government. Twenty-Five per cent OF
this amount went back to the states
in which the forests are located in
lieu of taxes, in accordance with the
provisions Of the law. This revenue
will be added to the states fund for
the support and maintenance OF roads
and public schools.
The amount OF timber cut from all
the national forests was 3s2 $4,000
feet, board measure, as against 1884,
$4,000 feet in the previous year.
This figure for 1908 does not include
the lS1, 4S2.O 900 feet given away to
settlers, schools and churches under
free use" permits. This Increase OF
100 per cent shows a far better use
and increasing productiveness OF the
forest under conservative methods OF
cutting. There was a marked in
crease in small sales last year, result
ing in an Increase of 236 per cent in
the number of sales, Notwithstanding
the fact that the timber contracted
for was far ! IS in the aggregate than
in 1907.
In making timber sales the forest
service seeks small in preference to
large sales, and aids to safeguard a
supply for future needs rather than
to swell the immediate receipts. Were
it desired, the present receipts from
timber sales could be quickly doub-
led. During the year 1t was found
necessary in the interest Of contin-
ued supply to restrict sales on many
forests. Nevertheless. use Of the ma
tiOnal forests as source OF timber
supply was more general than ever be-
fore.
Ahe IOtdi EecelptS from tlmDer
sales each year have been as follows:
1905, S6O.1s6.62; 1905. s245,O13.
AZ; 1907. s66S.s1S.12: 1908. $780,
O27.24.
Payment for timber is always re-
quired in advance. In large sales,
however, and in small sales on oe-
casion, payment is made in INSTALL
ments SO arranged as to protect the
government against loss without inn
posing severe burdens upon
the purchaser. Thus the receipts OF
each year represent substantially, but
not exactly, the value of the timber
sold and removed during that year.
