FOREST PATROL
Is PROPOSED
TIMBER INTERESTS PLAN PRO-
TEcTIVE MEASURES AGAINST
LOSS BY FOREST
FIRES.

The Northern Forest Protective as
ISOLATION, which was organized recent
" at Marquette and of which Thornton
Green of Ontonagon is president is
formed partly for the purpose of pro-
noting legislation for the protection OF
standing timber. II will attempt TO Sc
cure from the Michigan legislature a
forest patrol such as the proposed bill
in wisconsin will establish. The Wis
consin plan is to establish a forest
patrol for the northern twenty-five
counties Of the state. Each county
viii have not less than ten patrolmen
and as high as thirty and no one man
will be expected 10 patrol more than
10000 acres.
The forest fires In the last two years
in the northern lake states have con-
WINGED state officials OF the wisdom of
protective measures. Governor Eber-
hart of Minnesota has stated that the
fires i'm Minnesota the present year
would have paid for forest protection
the next fifteen years, based on the
loss TO the state through them.
Mr.. Green says that there probably
will be some objections TO this legisla-
ton and taxation by people throughout
the states affected, but he has an eff
fective answer for any of their argu-
ments. He says that there are yet
about 100000 acres of standing TIM
Der in the upper peninsula and that
the stumpage is worth on an average
$3.50 an acre. The timber manufac-
turer expends to cut this timber $40
an acre for supplies and labor, max
ing the cost per acre $3.50, of which
the merchants and manufacturers and
laboring men of the state receive $40.
important Conference Shortly.
Mr.. Green has been appointed by the
timber interests of Michigan, Wiscon-
sin and Minnesota to represent them
at the Lake States Forestry conference
at St Paul Dec. and Z. This is TO be
an important conference. II is 10 be
attended by the governors and COVER
nors-elect of Michigan, Wisconsin and
Minnesota. by the public domain COM
missions of the three states, by Unit
ed States Forester Graves and Cana
dian Forester Ftrnow and by represen-
tatives of various forestry and lumber
associations, railroad officials and leg
islators. Howard Elliott of the North
ern Pacific and Vice PRECEDENT Ashton
of the Chicago & Northwestern are To
be on the program The conference
is TO discuss legislation entirely and
Mr.. Green will tell the conferees just
what legislation the lumber interests
are seeking.
The Northern Forest Protective as
sociation recently organized at Mar
Ouette now has a membership repre-
senting 100000 acres Of standing
timber. mixed pine and other soft
woods and hardwood. 1t will. accord
ing 20 President Green. have a mem
bership representing 100000 acres by
next spring. These interests want
their forests protected and viii have

TAX COMMISSION
Is VERY BUSY
MUST FIX ASSESSMENT OF
RAILROADS, EXPRESS CON-
PANIEs, TELEPHONE AND

Just now the state tax commits.
sion is very busy" said Robert II.
! Shields Of Houghton. a member of the
commission, in an interview At Mar
quette. I'VE have To fix the assess
ments of every railroad, express COM
pany, telephone and telegraph COM
pany I'm the state by Jan. 1, which is
a tremendous task, and besides We
are busy gathering material 20 pre-
sent To the state board of equalization,
which meets next year. This board
meets every five years and equalizes
the taxes as between counties. The
state tax commission works with the
board of equalization and is supposed
TO be able 10 give them information
relative to conditions in" certain coun-
ties, whenever so requested. The state
tax commission has plenty to do all
the time, much more than ! thought
when l became a member of the COM
mission"
wouldn't the state tax commission
be more useful IL IL were empowered
by law 10 go back of the city and
township valuations as fixed by the
county boards of supervisors quer-
led the reporter.
We'll, I don't know as that would
help matters much" he replied.
There has got to Zoe a limit some
where or it would never be possible to
collect any taxes. If the state tax
commission could upset the work of
the county boards at their October
meeting, It would open an avenue for
endless litigation and the taxes in
many counties would not be definitely
levied from one years end to another.
There must be an end To the review of
assessment rolls somewhere, and Y
guess the final power OF review might
as well be I'm the hands of the county
board as with a state commission.
Arbitrate Controversies.
ut might be a good thing, however
If the county board meetings i'm diff
ferent counties were spread over the
year. SO that i'm cases of controversy
between cities and townships in the
same county, the state commission
might be called i'm to aIbitrate the
matters i'm dispute. In nearly every
county there are usually lively contro-
versies between the supervisors Of one
locality or another, each claiming that
the district he represents is getting
the worst Of it in the assessment roll,
as finally adopted. Ii the state tax
commission could arbitrate matters OF
this kind, better feeling and a greater
measure of justice might result.
Il notice 10y the down state papers
that George 3. Horton is being talk
ed Of as a member of the state tax
commission 20 succeed VIM. II. Hoyt
OF Plymouth. This story has crept out
in capital circles relative 10 the ap-
pointments Governor Elect Osborn is
soon 10 make That there should be
even talk Of appointing Mr. Horton to
this important position is considered
highly significant by those discussing
il, in view of the attitude Of the state

Unknown Man Killed
Either hit by a 500 Line train while
walking on the tracks or falling from
the train while stealing a ride, an un-
known man some time Thursday night
received injuries which caused his
death short time later. The body
was found lying at the side of the
track shortly before 10 o'clock Friday
morning by Harold Foster, employed
az the farm of Attorney Clyde Hay
den, where the scene of the accident
where the body was found showed that
the unfortunate man had either been
struck by the train or in being thrown
off while stealing a ride had struck
a stump at the side of the right of
way, breaking the rotten tree stem at
the ground. The mans ankle was in
iured and his face was badly cut i'm
the collision with the stump. He had
evidently gotten up and after taking
off the shoe and stocking from his left
foot and wringing out his vest, hi
clothing having been soaked In plung
ing through a small pond, he hat
walked back across the pond toward
the track where he fell. dying late,
from exposure. After making a care.
full examination of the scene of the
accident, Coroner DUDE decided that
death had been the result of an acct
dent and an inquest was not consid
cred necessary Although large mum.
Der of people visited the undertaking
rooms no one was able to identify the
stranger. He was about thirty five
years of age; about five feet six inches
tall was partially bald and wore p
light hat black coat and vest and |
dark striped trousers. In one of his |
pockets was found a card announcing
turkey rafe to be held at Green Bay
Nov 20, and it is thus considered |
probable that he was in that city some
time previous to last Sunday.
