SPOKANE, Wash, Aug. 27.-Two hun
dred members of the Idaho militia were
sent from their camps at Occur d'Alene
today to st. Joe to assist in fighting the
forest fires which threatened to destroy
town, which Is in grave peril.
On the BovilIe branch of the Milwau-
kee railroad 200 men are fighting very
large FIRE that is moving north. There
is no wind, and the men are able to hold
the fire in check. The fires on Marble
Creek, south of the st. Joe, are also
alarming. Food has to be packed forty
miles to the fire fighters.

SPOKANE, Aug. 27.--It will be much
easier two months from now to COM
pile a list of the persons killed in the
Idaho, Montana and Washington for
est fires than it is at present Persons
W ehreturned today from the burned
country say that there has been nc
exaggeration in the newspaper reports
of loss of life or destruction of prop
erty. The forest service is unable to
check up its men and to say posi-
lively how manv are missing.
On Saturday afternoon, August 20,
there were $50 forestry men in the
field. There was a record of their
names when they were engaged, but
some of the timekeepers have been
burned to death, and with them the
list of employees. Wages are due the
men and if they do not call for them
1t will be assumed that the men are
dead. Search is also being made of
the blackened wastes for many miss
ing settlers
The lost men were. nearly all labor
ers picked up by the employment
agancies of Spokane and Missoula.
None of the graduates of the Yale
forestry school were killed or injured
The eight men killed in the Bullion
mine and the thirteen killed on the
big fork of the Occur d'Alene were
forest service men. though not included
in the lists of the district officers at
Missoula.
TABULATING THE DEAD
While Supervisor weigle at wal
lace was catherine information con-
cerning his missing rangers he re-
ceived reports of others than forest
men killed and the list of those to-
tailed more than 100. These reports
were unofficial and unverified, but they
agree with tales brought to Spokane
by refugees. It was reported to Wal
lace that a number of Japanese en-
ployes of the Milwaukee railroad and
numerous settlers, loggers and miners
perished.
The bodies over which the fire has
swept directly seem turned to char
coal The men suffocated in tunnels
are recognizable, as are some of those
roasted in the creek beds.
How poor a protection the creeks
were is shown by the fact that all the
streams in tie Coeur d'Alene country
are carrying vast number of boiled
trout.
Senator Wesley L. Jones of Washing
ton today expressed entire disagree
ment with Gen. Leonard Woods opin-
ion that the proposal to use United
States soldiers to pat oil the national
forests was wholly impracticable. He
said that he would favor legislation to
authorize such use of the troops.
OF the fifty injured men in Wallace
hospitals all will bear scars or other
marks to the grave, and those who In
hailed smoke are suffering from lung
trouble. Half the patients suffered
broken legs or arms. Many have pitt
fully scared faces. The number of In
iured In the whole fire country runs
into hundreds.

TRAINING SCHOOL NOTES.

The window shades for darkening
the assembly room having been re-
ceived after long waiting, we are now
able to make use of the stereopticon.
The manufacturers have several sets
of slides which they loan to purchas-
ers of the instrument at cost of car
riage and possible breakage. The set
on the Yellowstone park were es-
pecially excellent and afforded pleas
ant and instructive entertainment.
At the first exhibition, Tuesday, the
the agricultural school shared in the
entertainment. At the second, Fri
day, county superintendent Pivernitz.
Rev. and Mrs. Crippen, and several
alumni were present. An excellent
lecture explaining the views accom-
panies them and aids in appreciation
of the scenery. The art slides were
also shown Friday and will be more
carefully presented today A private
rehearsal Saturday showed views of
California, which will be exhibited to
the school this week.
Prin. Geo. S. Helm and Miss Edith
Dahlberg, teacher of domestic science
in the Marinette County Agricultural
school visited us last week.
Prof. Chas. E. King of Wayland
academy, Beaver Dam, Wis, Miss
Gertrude Smith and Lloyd Wells were
visitors Thursday. Prof. King spoke
helpfully on the purpose of an educa-
ton, and Lloyd gave an interesting
account Of a visit to the Swift meat
packing establishment in Chicago.
The school made its annual visit Of
inspection of the McEachron Milling
company's plant, Tuesday. We heart
lily appreciate the courtesy of Wausau
manufacturers in allowing us this
privilege.
The graduating class visited the
agricultural school this MORNING and
sUuuled The processes of butter max

us to be remembered, as well as it
does them.

BETTER METHOD.

With all the joy of spring about us,
we are reminded that every rose has
its thorns. This is the season of the
year when the good house wife dis
turbs the peace and quiet of the home
from cellar to attic in her war upon
dirt and germs. House cleaning again
is upon us. We men must get along
with handout and a promise of
square meal later on, and when it is
all over and dust and dirt has again
settled, how vexatious it is to look for
things that are no longer in their old
hiding places. We understand better
days are at hand. No longer is it nee
cessary to carry those dirty rugs out
on the line and pound and pound until
your back aches. House cleaning be-
comes pleasure when you use an
electric vacuum cleaner. What is
this? A small box that can be moved
from room to room with hose ON one
end that will suck up all the dirt and
dust within its reach and a small wire
at the other end that will attach
wherever an electric lamp can be
burned The machine will do the
rest. We can truthfully say, that
this seems to be the easiest, most SAM
tary and the cheapest way to clean
house. These machines can be bought
or rented at nominal sum.

Raising the Maine.

The press of the country is unan-
imous in urging that the proposed
appropriation for raising the wreck
OF the Maine shall be made. 1t en-
phasizes our long neglect of this
duty, and hopes that nothing now
shall further interfere. The Spring
field Republican is charitable enough
to think that the lapse of q dozen
years has been allowed not purpose
ly, but has come about from the
Discrimination of congress to do any
thing that it did not have to do.
The Republican recalls the report
of the Sampson committee which
investigated the cause of the dis
aster, quoting from it the explicit
statement that the plates of the
vessel were bent inward, showing
that the explosion came from with
out, to support the contention that
failure to act has not been from
fear of any revelations, but simply
from neglect.
The Republican, however, fails to
mention that Spain also employed
committee concurrently with the
Sampson committee, to investigate
the wreck, and that it also had
divers examine the wreck, and that
it reported dramatically opposite
to the report of the Sampson COM
mittee. But all this, it seems to us
is of little account now. 1t was not
the blowing up of the Maine that
caused our war with Spain for the
freedom of Cuba. sThe clock had
simply struck, that is all Spain
knew that the time had come for
her to get out, and she would have
got out without war if there had
been any way that Spanish pride
could have accepted. But she felt
that she musr De put out, and 1t
was for US to do it. So far as any
thing that may be revealed by the
condition of the wreck, a cipher can
be written opposite it. The worst
that can be said has been said at
any time during these dozen years,
and We have said it ourselves. 1t
is that we have left scores of the
bones of our own sailors to mingle
with the wreck, while we have per-
mitted it to remain an obstruction
in friendly harbor. 1t is indeed
high time for ali reasons that we
should end this Indianapolis News.

Another Straw.

To anyone who has kept even
casually in touch with the trend of
public opinion for the last six
months, no "straws" are needed to
indicate the feeling as to the tariff.
However, a most significant one is
reported from Republican Massa-
chusets, the home of Senator Lodge
and from district of the Old Bay
state which has always been con-
sidered one of the safest Republican
strongholds.
In this district-the Fourteenth
L. N. Foss, the Democratic candi-
date for congress was elected by a
majority of 5,640 votes. The ma
jority of his Republican predecessor
was IA, 250, so that the vote for Mr..
Foss represents change of nearly
20, 900 votes.
The fight was made with the tariff
and the increased cost of living as
the issues and Senator Lodge him
self took an active part in the cam
paign. The result cannot De re-
garded otherwise than as indicating
most Enthusiastically the dissatisfac-
ton OF the people with the Republi-
can party and its broken promises
of tariff reform.
President Taft may declaim as to
the merit of the Aldrich tariff and
may continue to rail at the news
papers which criticize this attitude.
But he Cannot change the facts,
which are that the people have tired
OF Republican protestations and are
turning to the Democratic party as
the organization which can and will
bring about change in national
affairs which will relieve the most
intolerable conditions which now
obtain.
The bye election in Missouri few
weeks ago, followed now by the
Democratic landslide in the Four
teenth Massachusetts district are
big with meaning to any person
whose reasoning faculties are not
completely absent. There can be
but one Interpretation, and, if the
Republican leaders cannot read the
handwriting on the wall they must
indeed be blind.
However, they may as well con-
tinue now to stand pat. President
Taft has committed himself and his
party irreyocibly to the proposition
that the present tariff law is the
best ever enacted. Whatever pop
ular protest may come, they cannot
recede from this position. They
must fight it out and the skirmishes
which precede the general engage
ment convey to them nothing but
forecasts of complete disaster in
November. Milwaukee News.

ASIDE from the fghi in Milwaukee
the most interesting campaign in
the state is that being waged in
Eau Claire for the election of the
first officers who will take up the
commission form of government.
A mayor, and two commissioners are
to be elected. The mayor will draw
a yearly salary of SO, 500 and each
of the commissioners $4,000. They
will do the work of all other sa,aried
officials. Eau Claire being the first
city in the state to adopt the COM
mission plan, the government of
that city will be watched by other
cities to ascertain the degree of its
success.

IT is believed by many who make
a Careful study of production that
Wisconsin does not appear as well
as she should in census and crop re-
reports. 1t is thought that many
farmers feel that the census returns
in some way affect their taxes.
Why they should think so is hard to
conceive, but it is doubtless true
that this impression prevails. The
difficulty of giving statistics on the
spur of the moment is apparent and
the farmers are urged to be pre-
pared in advance to give the census
enumerators correct statistics.
Understatements are injurious to
the communities where they prevail
and are against the interests of all
property owners.
