P. S. Darlington, district fruit in
spector, says that the proper time to
apply the first spray to codling moth is
just at the time the first petals are
falling and before the calyx cup closes.
The object of spraying at this time is to
get the poison into the calyx cup. 1t
will be about month before the worm
matches out. MIR. Darlington recon-

Indians Cannot Hunt and Fish During the
Closed Season


The Siwash Indians about here have
been in the habit Of hunting and fish
ing without regard to the state game
and fish laws. Considerable complaint
has been made by white people and in
order to get the matter right Deputy
Forest Ranger Green last week ad-
dressed letter to State Fish Commits
sioner and Game Warden Riseland. It
appears that indians while on their
reservation can fish and hunt at will
but Indians living on allotments, as the
Siwashes in this vicinity are called
allotment Indians, must obey the state
game and fish laws just as other people
do. Following is the letter of the
State Fish Commissioner:
Bellingham, Wn., May II, '0o
Mr.. o. T. Green,
Deputy Forest Ranger.
Dear Sir: I have yours of the 5th
instant and note what you say with
reference to Indians hunting during
the closed season and asking if they
must procure hunters license.
Answering your inquiry desire to
say that Indians who are wards of the
federal government have certain privi-
leges given them by treaties which the
state cannot take away from them, nor
can they be abridged in any way.
II an Indian is ward of the federal
government and resides on the reser-
walton he has the right and privilege
to hunt and fish on such reservation at
any time of year and in any manner he
sees fit without any license. II, how
ever, such an Indian should 60 beyond
his reservation it has always been the
policy of this department to treat them
the same as any other citizens, and
believe this is the proper Interpretation
of the law. Yours truly,
Jno. L. Riseland,
State Fish Commissioner

An optimistic and sensible interview
on business and tariff conditions is the
following by James ]. Hill, contained
in dispatch to the P-I:
All eyes are turned on Washing
ton," said Mr.. Hill. Some people
seem to think legislation will cure the
toothache, set broken limb or make
crops. Talk and Legislation here in
Washington keep people in suspense
and make them forget their business
and hope for some Legislative cure-all.
What we want is to have the tariff
agitation over with and let the people
get back to work and aid the great
wheels of progress to turn. Then
things will begin to hum. The out
look is good in all directions"
Mr.. Hill was asked what he thought
of the outlook as to stocks and bonds
in New York.
The millions Of people OF the
country" he replied, are not bothered
about stocks or bonds. What we must
look to now are the crops. The wheat
outlook is good. / do not think there
will be heavy crop, however, as the
acreage was cut down by late SHOWS
during the blowing season. The quail
ity of wheat, believe, is good"

who desired to enter the Forest whose
claims were legitimate and in order to
admit them a sliding scale reduction
was made upon all owners over and
above a certain lumber, the surplus
being used to allow the new men to
enter the Forest.
Each succeeding year more new
settlers desired to Craze their sheep
and cattle on that Forest und the same
system was followed to obtain the nee
essary room for these new men until,
at the beginning of the present grazing
season, the man who six years ago
owned forty-seven per cent. of the
stock had been reduced in numbers
until he was grazing but 10000 head
of sheep, which was about four per
cent. of the total number of the Forest.
In the meantime the number of indi-
viduals and firms grazing stock in that
Forest has greatly increased until there
are almost three times as many men
using the range as were at the time OF
its creation as National Forest. This
certainly proves that the government is
not maintaining the National Forest
ranges solely for the big companies, to
the exclusion of the small owners and
new settlers.
In order that the larger holders may
not be too seriously reduced from year
to year, they are guaranteed that they
will not be reduced below a certain
point and the new owners are restricted
to a certain established number to
begin with and allowed to gradually
increase their number from year to year
until they have reached the limit which
is set for any one man or company.
In this manner the reduction is spread
over several years and the larger owners
are given time to meet it. But the
small men are quite as insistent that
they are being Disseminated against as
are the larger men, because many Of
them claim that instead of starting al
the low figure they should be allowed
to enter the Forest if they wish with q
number equal to the full limit, which
would result in making the annual
reduction on the large holders severa
times heavier than they are under the
present system.
For the year 1909 there were thirty
two new settlers who desired to enter {
particular Forest with their stock, bu
with the reductions made upon the
older users it was impossible to take
care of but five OF them; and while the
older users complain of the reductions
necessary to meet this demand from
the new men, the new men also com
plain because they are not allowed /
larger number at the beginning. Ont
of the basic principles in handling
grazing matters on the National Forest
is that it is better to help small maj
make living than big man profit
The policy of the Forest Service il
making these reductions and restric
tons is not to injure any person nor II
allow the new men to enter the Fores
with such large number as will nee
essitate unnecessarily large reduction
to meet them. The number allowe'
each individual is believed to be tina
which will furnish modest income t
man sufficient to enable him to estab
lish his home, support and educate hi
family and advance his own interest
as we'll as the interest of the commun

DIVIDING FOREST RANGE
Between Old Users and New Settlers
Results in Dissatisfaction

Results m Dissatisfaction
There is probably no policy con.
nected with the administration of mat.
tiers upon the National Forests that
comes closer home to the stockmer
than the system under which the num-
Der of stock each man may Craze is
determined by the Supervisors.
With the rapid increase in popula-
ton of most of the western states, the
demands for grazing privileges upon
the National Forests, especially from
the men interested in sheep raising,
increase every year. The new settlers
locating the country adjacent to the
National Forests are nearly all DESTROYS
of entering the stock business either as
cattle raisers or sheep growers.
In order that they may more sue
cessfully handle their stock, they apply
to the Forest Service for permit to
enter the nearest Forest, which, very
likely, is already stocked to its fullest
capacity. The question then before
the Supervisor, with whom the applica-
tons are filed, is how to accommodate
these new settlers without injury tc
those who are already occupying the
ranges.
1t has been the consistent policy O.
the Service to take care of the new
men Just as far as possible without toe
greatly restricting those already using
the ranges. and in order to do this il
has been necessary to reduce the num-
Der allowed the larger men on a pre-
rata basis in order to give the new mer
an opportunity. These reductions are
only made after full consideration o
the conditions surrounding each per
nit, and every effort is made TO carry
out the system with as little injury tc
the Individual stockman as is possible
The result of this system of reduc
ing the larger owners in order to admit
the new settler is, that many OF the
owners of large numbers of stock are
continually appealing to the Foreste
against the cutting down process
claiming they are being injured IL
their business and deprived of thei
rights as citizens, to increase and built
up legitimate industry. On the othe
hand, some of the little men are equally
persistent in their appeals for furthe
recognition than that already allowed
them. In handling this matter thu
Forest officers must act as fair and i'm
partial judges for both classes.
There is one fixed and immutabl
point in this entire proposition which
can not be changed except through
improvement of the ranges, and that is
the number of stock which givel
area will ordinarily support. When tn
forest ranges are carrying the full mum
Der of stock which they safely can, thu
only thing that can be done to NEE
the demand from new settlers Is t
reduce the number which any one ma
can range and give the new settler tn
benefit of this reduction.

On Attendance OF Catholic Pupils in
. Public Schools.
The following is taken from the Wa
SEGA Herald, Mimi, and makes inter-
esting reading for Catholic parents:
1t is stated by the st. Louis Republic
that, as long ago as 1892, Mgr. Satolli.
the papal delegate. in a pamphlet adj
dressed to and privately circulated
among the Catholic archbishops, au-
thoritatively laid down the law of the
church in regard to the attendance Of
Catholic children upon the public
schools Of this country; so that the
numerous discussions which have since
been going on have been over mat
ter practically. as lawyers say, res
judicata." The Republic has been CIV

now, it Is claimed, for the first time
made public. The delegates paper takes
very decided stand, and in one of its
utterances in particular practically rem
ders impossible Of enforcement the
penalty of exclusion from the sacra-
ments Of the church decreed by some
priests recently against those Catholic
parents who should send their chill
dren to the public schools. This espe-
cial and very important section Of Mgr.
Satolli's paper is the fifth section Of
that document, and reads as follows:
I'VE strictly forbid anyone, whether
bishop or priest, and this Is the ex-

A Spring Memory.

Oh, it was in the pleasant spring
weather,
When daffodlls shone on the lea;
A. new bloom was bright on the heath
And spring winds blew in from tho

A blackbird sweet music was making
Below in the poisoning dell,
And nature to gladness was waking
That day when we met at the we'll.
Oh, your eyes were like Avon's brown
When shaded by summer clad trees.
Your voice like the blackbirds in
Oughter,
Your step was as free as the breeze:
And l with my brimming; pail fingered
To while the sweet moments away,
Till evening came in dewy fingered
And closed the dead eyelids of day.
We talked of the news and the weather,
And chatted of things round about
How bright was the bloom of the
heather
How bravely the young leaves hung
out;
And then in a whisper you told me
The story that ever is new,
And with the stars to behold me
Repeated that love tale to you.
Alas for the days that are over!
Alas for the springs that are dead!
Alas for the dusky-eyed lover
That lies with the mould at his head!
And though a March wind there is
blowing
And daffodils shine on the lea,
An ocean is foaming and flowing
Between my far country and me!
But in the dim palace of dreaming
My fancy sees visions by nigh.

Danger In Il. Pr..ident,. Trio.

Danger In the Presidents Trip.
Mr.. Roosevelt came to the presidency
BY accident, and he at once set out In
quest of nomination and election.
His pilgrimages were personal. Unless
he was to go the way Of other vice
presidents called to the presidency, he
had to create a, following. He did
this by the methods Of schoolmaster.
He laid on the rod increasingly, and
those whom he did not convince he
at least silenced, says the New York
World.
There is no occasion for Mr.. Taft to
initiate his predecessor in this respect.
He holds the presidency in his own
right. He Is the leader of his party
Travel and speech making cannot give
him claim on second term that the
scrupulous attention to duty which is
characteristic of him does not afford
In fact, devoting time and strength to
unnecessary and futile augmentation
he is in danger of losing the thing
which MIR. Roosevelt adopted such
dubious methods to win.
Additional danger to Mr.. Taft is to
be found in the fact that whereas Mr..
Roosevelt went forth to talk for himself
Mr.. Taft is mistakenly bent upon talk
ing for Aldrich and Cannon. In his
muck raking Mr.. Roosevelt hit heads
wherever he saw them. AS defender
of the Republican System" in congress
Mr.. Taft will be neither interesting nor
convincing. His popularity is certain
to suffer in the attempt.
Mr.. Roosevelt found the west eager
to listen to his peculiar demagogy. Mr..
Taft will find the west with conclusions
already formed az to Cannonism and
Aldrichism. The smore Mr.. Roosevelt
talked the better the west liked him.
The more Mr.. Taft shall talk the less
the west will like him. The intlica-
tions are that he is about to make the
first grave mistake of his public career

Conversion Of Floyd Family,

Writing to the Southern Messenger,
Rev. p. r. Brennan, a missionary well
known in the south. relates an unusual
manner of conversion. He says the
Incident was related to him by r. N.
French lawyer. Of Douglas, Arz In
a letter to the missionary, the story
is related:
According to promises l here give
you the account Of the conversion of
the Floyd family of Virginia to Catho-
licism. I give it just as it was given
to me by Hon. John Fl. Fulton, OF
Wytheville. Va.
Judge Fulton and I had been discuss
ing the doctrines of the Catholic
church and I had retired to my room,
and Judge Fulton, who occupied a
room opposite mine at the Gloseclose
hotel at Marion. Va, called me across
to his room and asked me IL knew
how the Floyd family became Catholics.
l told him that did not, and he re-
piled that it was because Tom Ran
dolph had pulled President Jackson's
nose. He said that jackson promised
the elder John Floyd that II he was
elected to the presidency, he (Jaok-
SOM would make Floyd secretary Of
state. Tom Randolph, who was a great
admirer and friend of Floyd. who was
the governor Of Virginia, on his way

that he had changed his mind in re-
gard to the appointment Of Floyd and
would not appoint him a member of
his cabinet.
Randolph became enraged and seized
Jackson's nose and pulled 1t, for which
offense he was arrested upon his ar
rival at Washington. and his wedding
was necessarily postponed. Governoy
Floyd read an account of the difficulty
and invited Randolphs fiance to spend
the interval with his daughter at the
capital at Richmond, Va. She &C.
cepted the invitation and converted
Governor Floyd and his entire family
to the doctrines Of the Catholic Church.
And Father Brennan adds:
"Tom Randolph little dreamed that
he was in the Catholic missionary field

the president of the United States.
While Jackson's nose was not made for
that purpose, it il certain that it was

Reply to Goodwin Smith.

The Rev. Henry A. Brann, DID, rec
tor of ST. Agnes church, New York, at
present at Jefferson, N. H., in answer
to a recent letter Of Goodwin Smiths.
writes to the New York Sun as fol-
lows:
ITO the Editor of The Sun-Sir:
Mr.. Goodwin Smith closes long arti-
Gle in yesterdays Sun on 'Materialism
and Spiritualism' With these words:
Let me emphatlcally say once more
that have spoken as a learner, not
as teacher Not doubling the dis
tinguished gentlemans sincerity per-
NIT me to point out to him a source
from which he can derive correct in
formation in regard to the questions
which seem to puzzle him. He says:
1.-The long postponement Of the In
carnation and the Redemption is Diff
ficulty with which, as we'll as with
those Of vicarious punishment and the
division of the Trinity for the purpose,
theologians seem to have been unwill-
ing to deal
This is not true 20 far as Catholic
theologians are concerned. The great
est Of them specifically and ind;vid-
ually deals with all these questions. In
the third part Of the Sum Of Theology
of st. Thomas Aquinas, Mr.. Smith will
find solutions Of nearly all these ques-
tons, and answers to his difficulties.
He will find them answered also in all
the text books Of theology and phi
losophy in use in Catholic seminaries
and colleges.
1T is true that the works OF st.
Thomas, one of the greatest human in
tellects that God ever created, and the
works of most Catholic theologians,
have been written in the Latin tongue,
and therefore are sealed books to the
average educated non Catholic, not ex-
cepting the n-Catholic clergy, some
Of whom, one bishop, have met, VIII,
could not translate sentence of
Thomas Aquinas; but this remark does
not apply to Mr. Smith, who is a. dis
tinguished scholar conversant with the
Church Latin as we'll as with that of
the classic authors Of Greece and
Rome.
Possibly, therefore, it is only neces-
sary to call his attention to the slip
of his pen which he made when he
wrote the words which l have under
scored; and that he will either correct
them or take the hint which l am cour-
teously giving. would add that St
Thomas has also a beautiful treatise
on the Angels or purely spiritual SUBJ
stances, Of which there are more in
the universe than there are of men. II

nally affiliated to the celestial nier-
