situation in Western Montana shows
that 1,500 men are employed in fight

1t is also estimated, according to fig

been burned. This estimate, however,
does not include the damage done to
the Couer d'Alene forest, where fires
have been exceptionally destructive.
The total acreage will probably be

Gallagher was appointed a watch

charged July 10, 1910, after having
been found guilty of neglect of duty
and misconduct. Among his other
transgressions was the fact that he
failed to punch the dial or the time
clock that recorded his presence. He
was also charged with using insulting
language to an inspector. Since his
discharge Gallagher has been writing
letters to the mayor.
The attempt to assassinate the may

prominence of the executive in recent
months in city affairs, and to a great
extent in state and national affairs,

horror and Indignation at the crime.
Reform in City Affairs.
William ]. Gaynor, then a judge.
was elected mayor of New York in
1909. From the date of his election
to the Office of mayor to the present
day Judge Gaynor kept up his work
of reform. Within sixty days after
he assumed Office on Jan. 1 of the
present year he cut off the heads OF
429 Tammany politicians who were on
the municipal payroll. One hundred
and twenty-five of these went to the
block on the same day. Within this
time the new mayor cut off salaries
aggregating sS55,O0O a year and had
inaugurated measures to save the tax-
payers of the city an aggregate Of
$4,000, 900 a year., and he had only
begun to work.
He was nominated and presumably
elected by Tammany, but If that Or
ganization had any particular inf1u.
