that the policy of Withholding patronage
from progressive" senators and repre-
ssentatives had been abandoned and that

was written TO an unnamed political
leader in Iowa, an insurgent stamping

covered in various appointments Of post
MASTERS that arc about to be made in
some OF the progressive states
The suggestion that the letter seemed
TO indicate turn toward the progress
met by a statement that Mr. Taft al

never been equalled by any Republican

Not Talking Much.
II was not admitted at the executive
offices that recent progressive sue
cess In states Ike Iowa. Kansas Cali
fornia and Wisconsin had influenced the
results In these states were at all dis
pleasing TO him. Mr.. Taft declared last
winter that his test OF real Republican
ism was support of the party's national
platform All the progressive states have
announced fealty to this platform. and
the president is said to he more than
willing to take the progressive leaders
at their word and he assuredy will give
them an opportunity this winter to carry
some more Of the platform pledges Into
effect.
The president declares. through Mr..
Norton. that the value of receral patron
age has been greatly over-estimated, but
taken for what IL may be worth he does
not propose to let IL stand any longer
as a hindrance to party harmony
Distinct objection is raised at Bev-

On the other hand. there is disposi-

OF real progressivencss on his part.
II is also pointed out the president has

MUCH TIMBER is DESTROYED
Fire in Pryor Mountains Devastates
Large Area.

Billings, Mont, Aug. 30.--The first
direct news concerning the condition
of the forest and range fires which
have been raging in the Pryor noun
tain district, south of this city, were
brought here by t. A. Snidow, one of
the leading stockmen, who has thou
sands of sheep ranging in that vicinity
Approximately 100000 acres were
covered by the confiagration, which
destroyed pasture for the animals, to-
gether with some of the finest pine
timber In Montana.
In starting a backfire in order to
protect his sawmill George Towne
was unable to control the flames and
the force which was fighting the main
conhagration was divided in the two
fires so that additional damage re-
suited.
Thousands of sheep were moved to
another part of the district and 1t is
believed that a sufficient amount OF
forage is available to carry the AMI
mails through the fall and winter.
When Mr.. Snidow left the district the
ground was covered with about five
inches of snow and all fire was ex-
tinguished.
