WRITING HISTORY PROVES

In his presidential address before the

lined splendid scheme for a history
of the ancient city. or rather series
of histories, for the president would
follow the plan of the Cambridge Mod
ern History, with one man one sub
ject. He made. however. the frank ad-
mission that writing history does not
pay, says the London Globe. Here are
his words: 'It was said long ago,
think, by Cicero. thai wherever we go
we are treading the path of history.
But / warn all whom it may concern
that it must be a labor of love. An
drew Lang has more than once said to
me that it does not pay TO write his
tory, least of all the history of an an
cient city. The same experience has
befallen less noted men. Like virtue,
the study and the writing of local his

Futile is the effort to make 1t ap.
pear that the Democratic congress.
sional nominee is stronger at home
than any other. man. While certain
Democrats are busy trying to make
this impression in other parts of the
district, other Democrats and Repub.
licans are exposing the falsity of the
assertion. While the Davis adher-
ents may believe that their kind of
publicity will not be met, yet there
are many Republican newspapers in
the district and they are not letting
that effort go by unnoticed. Here is
a sample taken from the Weston In
dependent and It is as true as gospel:
There are the best OF reasons to
believe that Candidate John w. Da-
Wis Is not going to run so well in
Harrison county as some persons
would have the public believe. Just
about his party vote is safe guess
of his support there, II good men of
that county are reliable forecasters.
Though all concede him a few Re-
publican votes among close friends,
there are numerous Democrats who
openly declare they will vote for Mr..
misunderstanding Telegram.

.LAsr WEARS FOREST EIREs.

Fire played less havoc In the wood.
lands OF the national forest States
last year than It did in 1908, although
the number of fires was 40 greater.
The protective value OF the work OF
the Department of Agriculture is
shown in the almost eighty per cent.
aof the fires were .extlnguished before
8 as much as five acres had been dam
aged !; that less than one and one-half
acres to the square mile of national
forest land was burned over; that the
amount of damage done to the burned.
over area averaged but $1.2G per acre.
For the twelvemonth ended Decem.
Der S1st last, there were 3,l3S fires In
the forests, 1,1S6 caused by locomo-
tiyes, 431 by campers, 294 by light
ming, 1S1 by brush burning, 81 by In.
cendiarles, 3S by sawmills and dom
J key engines, 1853 by miscellaneous and
75S by unknown agencies. The area
burned over was, in round figures,
100000 acres, OF which about $4,000
were private lands in national for
ests. as against some 100000 acres in
1903. Some 170,000,000 board feet of
!. timber was con-umed, of which 49,
(. 100000 feet was privately owned, as
against 25O,O00.00O in the previous
year. The loss In value of timber de-
stroyed was less than 100000, of
which close to $4,000 was privately
owned. The loss OF the year before
was about $45O.00O. Damage done to
reproduction and forage shows re-
markable decrease, less than 100000
being the record for 1909 and over
100000 that for 1908.
The largest number OF fires occur
red In Idaho-991; but the great in
4 crease over 1908 in that state-name-
ly, 573-is entirely attributable to
fires in the Occur 'Alene, which were
extinguished without material dam.
age. Locomotive sparks were ac-
countable for Gil OF the blazes in this
forest last year. The explanation Of
the increase In the total for all for
ests Is to be found in this Occur

The report OF the forester for 1909
said of the fire record of 1908: THAT
year was one Of prolonged drought
during the summer and fall, and of
Z disastrous forest fires throughout the
country. The national forests suf-
Z fered relatively little. About 232,-
$4,000 board feet of timber, or .O6
per cent. of the stand, was destroyed.
A total of 2,72S fires was reported, Of
which 2,0S9 were small fires confined
us rule to an area of five acres or
less. The cost of fire fighting, exclu-
sive of the salaries OF forest officers,
was $73,2S3.33. This sum, added to
the proportion OF the total salaries of

able to patrol and fire fighting, was
less than one-twentieth of one per

While the use Of the automobile has
been largely restricted to pleasure rid.
ing. there can be no denying the fact
that Its use for practical purposes has
largely increased. Several well.known
makers Of, motor vehicles report a
large percentage OF their sales are to
physicians, who have found 1t profita-
Bile to substitute the rast.moving mo.
tor carriage for the slower-moving and
more expensive horse.drawn outfit.
The farmers, who formerly hated the
very sight OF motor carriages, are
now extensively using them, as they
find 1t cheaper to keep an automobile
for riding about the country than to
support a good team of horses and a
suitable vehicle. .,.......... .s.....,
These practical uses to which motor
vehicles are now put. have been vast.
ly supplemented by the substitution
of motor-driven cabs and other We.
hicles for the old:time' horse.drawn
cabs and hacks. 1t does not require
very close observation to note to what
n great extent horse vehicles have
been replaced in this city by public
motor cars.
The main future development ahead
of the automobile industry is the
manufacture of all sorts of motor.
driven vehicles for trade. In most
large cities one may already note mo.
tor wagons, from the heavy sort, ca
pable OF carrying many tons Of mer-
chandise,. to the light parcel delivery
affair. Horse-drawn vehicles for the
transportation Of merchandise are GER
tain to be more and more replaced by
motor vehicles as the saving in the
stabling and support of horses as
well as the saving in time, more than
offsets the larger first cost Of the mo-
tor wagon. ~.
